Considerable importance was un derstood to be attached by the ad ministration to the outcome of the Cleveland conference in relation of the national fuel situation and it was thought no move would be made by the federal government towards putting an end to the controversy until the outcome of the Cleveland conference was made known. Congressional participation in the coal dispute also will await the re sults of the Cleveland meeting. Of ficials believed, Senator Borah, Re publican, Idaho, saw the President I "'iaj and discussed his proposed lull to authorize the chief executive to appoint a federal commission to arbitrate the mine disagreement. A decision- was reached not to intro duce the measure into the Senate until next week. Meanwhile lurther steps toward in suring coat distribution during Hie emergency were taken by the gov ernment. Supplemental orders were issued by the Interstate Commerce ommission giving bituminous coal for household uses and for manu facturers ot food and medicines priority status, while the central dis tribution committee completed the formation of its regional committees w hich are to begin on Monday to dis tribute the flow of coal from the var ious producing districts to consumers designated by the Washington head u;e the wage basis for a period of tw o years from April 1. 1323. CLERKS IN PACT WITH NEW HAVEN ON WAGE REDUCTIONS New Haven. Conn.. Aug. 4.- Res toration of privileges in effect prior to July 1, and postponement of further action by employes in connection with pay reductions were agreed up on at a conference between officials of the New Haven road and a cont mittce representing the Brotherhood of Railway and Steamship clerks, freight handlers, express and station employees, according to a statement issued by the railroad company to night. The company is said to have agreed t n restore all former rules and practices in effect prior to decision 63ii. United States Labor Boardfi with respects to vacations, Saturday half holidays and sick leave, pending the. final decision of tlie board on disputes whiclt lias the matter under advisement.. The committee promis ed postponement of all action by its organization in connection with the acceptance or rejection of the re duction in rates of pay awarded by the Labor Board, effective July 1, pending further* acA ice from the board to the committee regarding the protest against these reductions now on file with the board. According to statements emana ting from the clerks’ headquarters, the result of the conference is re garded as a victory for the men. PAT PULLED BONE RAPPING ROAD AWARD 'Criticized Wilton Vot ers, Thought High way Com. to Blame One-Third of Mile of Highway at Cost of $17,000 was at Ex pense of Town—Chairman Ayers of Commission Sets Democratic Candidate for Governor Right That li'jn. William K. Pattangall, Democratic candidate for Governor, instead of criticising the work of the State Highway Commission, is cvrit icising the voluntary act of the voters of the town of Wilton, is pointed out by Chairman W. M. Ayers of the Highway Commission in a letter to Mr. Ezekial E. Chase, Republican State committeeman at Brownville, in reply to the latter’s inquiry rela tive to a statement being made by Mr. Pattangall to the effect that the State Highway Commission lias re cently let a contract for one-third of la mile of road in the town of Wil ton at a cost of $17,000. The letter I reads as lollows: August 4. 1922 Mr. Ezekiel E. Chase, Republican State Committeeman, 'Piscataquis County, lb ownvillr, Maine. Dear Air. Chase: Replying to your inquiry of July is relative to a statement being made by the Democratic candidate for gov ernor, to the effect that the State Highway Commission has recently let a. contract for one-third of a mile of toad in the town of Wilton at a i ost of $17,000, I am glad to give you the facts concerning this transaction. They are as follows: During the years 1920 and 1021, the Hightway commission construct ed a piece of Federal highway be tween Farmington and Wilton, and during the season of 1021 indicated that during the season of 1922 they would construct another piece of Federal highway between Wilton and Jav. The section of highway through the village of Wilton could not be built bv State highway bond funds nor could Federal aid be used in the construction of this section of high way, on account of the fact that Wilton lias over 2500 inhabitants, the census showing 2505 inhabitants. When the citizens of Wilton be came aware that no State highway or Federal aid highway would be built through the village, they Im mediately discussed among them selves the question of making an ap propriation to pay for this work. They asked the Highway Commission lo make a survey, plan and estimate (Continued on Page 7—7ol. 7) Plenty of Help on Bangor Aroostook Bangor. Maine. Aug. 4.— Comment ing on the report from Chicago to the effect that the Bangor and Aroostook Railroad was making a special effort to fill vacancies in its shop crews with ex-service men, President Percy R. Todd said to night "Xo, wc have not made any special effort to get ex-service men, al though a good many have applied for work and have been employed. Out shop crew at Derby ha§ been rciuit rd to 105 percent of normal, and of the 325 men there, 72 are ex-service men. The crew as a whole is show ing surprising efficiency and we are having no trouble whatever in keep ing B. and A. rolling stock in first class condition.” THE WEATHER CLOUDY North New England—Cloudy Sat urday; Sunday fair, moderate tem perature.

The Maine Fuel Admin istration in its desire to protect the j interests of the consumer and vvith out in any way reflecting upon the dealers who advanced the price, wired j the Portland dealers asking them about the reported advance and fol I lowed the telegram with a letter which reads as follows: August fourth, irti’.’. To the Coal Dealers: The newspaper reports indicate that two advances already have been i made in the juice of bituminous coal in Portland. At a time like this when there is a serious shortage of fuel and when the public is watching every siep 1 believe it is proper for the Maine Fuel Administration to inquire into each and every advance in price. Will you please inform me the dates on which the alleged advances were made, the amount of coal you had on hand on those dates, and give me in each case the reasons'for your ad vance. I believe that the juiblic is entitled to know just what tlie situa tion is and if we take them into our confidence we will avoid criticism. There will be a tendency to advance juices and if it goes unchecked the people inf Maine will tumor. 1 write this letter in a friendly sjiirit. I should appreciate receiving this in formation immediately. This is to sujiplement telegram sent you today. Yours very truly. (Signed) A. P. LANK. Director Maine Fuel Administration. It is the intention of the State Fuel Administration to follow tip all ad vances in juice of fuel and ask for a reasonable explanation. Priority Asked For Director Lane has already wired Washington asking for ]>riorities on coal to be used in the sardine canner ies in Washington county and in the corn canning establishments through out the State. Jt, is important that fuel be supplied these essential indus tries in which so many Maine peojde are employed and which use Maine raw material. As other requests conic to the administration they will be taken up promptly and every effort made to secure juiorities on coal shipments.

Gooding Proposes Resolution Probe Newspapers Irsays Mr. Munsey Using Pub lications to Defeat Tariff to Protect Extensive Foreign Holdings Resolution Re i ported Adversely

AVashihngton. Aug. 4—For four hours today the Senate wrangled i over the Gooding resolution proposing ja broad investigation of the interest of senators, newspapers and others i in the passage or defeat of the pend ing tariff bill, but action on it was postponed indefinitely. The resolution was reported unfa vorably by the committee on contin j gent expenses. Democrats urged im mediate consideration, but Senator Dodge, Massachusetts. Iiepublican leader, asked that the committee re port lie over for a day under the rules. Subsequently Senator Spencer, Kopubliean. Missouri, who was pre siding temporarily, stated in answer j to an inquiry that the measure had gone to the calendar. There it will remain until after the passage of the tariff bill unless sooner taken up by i unanimous consent or bv vote of the Senate. Senator faraway. Democrat, Ar 1 Kansas, who offered the original reso lution prophsing an investigation of Hie financial interest, if any of sen a tors in the tariff schedules, told the Senate that he realized the investiga tion was "dead.” A charge by Senator Gooding that Frank A. Munsey, owner of the New York Herald was opposing ihe tariff bill in the interest of his investments in Kurope marked debate on the reso lution. New proposals for a unanimous consent agreement for a final vote i on the tariff bill on August IT were put forward by Senator McCumber, Republican, North Dakota, in charge of the measure, and Senator Simmons of North Carolina, the minority lend or. Senator Renroot, whose objection yesterday prevented such an ngre GOVT’S POINT WON Washington, Aug. 4—Ttic major purpose of administration interven tion in the rail strike was accom plished. a White House spokesman declared today, when both rail cxc t uttves and shop craft union leaders agreed to consider authority of the Ikulrood Labor Board as supreme in future controversies. This aspect of l’rcsidcnt Harding’s proposals for a settlement of tlie strike is viewed by the administra tion as paramount. The fact that the executives rejected the President’s further proposal that, to end the strike, strikers be taken back by the turners without impairment of their seniority status, was said to lie sec ondary in the White House view since the success or non-success of govern mental mediation efforts in industrial strife could be considered a small matter compared with maintenance of the integrity of legally established agencies of the government itself. This outline of the administration attitude was made available today ail-i the cabinet session which was occupied for more than two hours with consideration of industrial difli ultics in coal mining and transpor tation. It strengthened the belief that for the moment no further go\ ernment move affeeting the conduct I of railroads was to be expected. A rumor that President Harding’s I proposals on seniority as originally presented to T. Dewitt Cur ler, ehair man of the Hail road Kxeeutives asso ciation. differed in form from the diaft rejected by the meeting of the (association, nut with denial at the [white House. As to the actual progress of the shopmen’s stiike, the association of ltailway Kxeeutives tonight issued a statement declaring that representa tives of striking railroad employees were “attempting to arouse public cnncirn” with “ridiculous" stories about "enormous impairment in ren dition of engines and cars on the roads. “fin July 15. two weeks after the strike began, there were fewer loco motives in bad order in lines than on February 1. March 1. April 1, May 1, or June 1,” the statement added, giv ing file figures, liese showed 1S,;C7 bad order locomotives. May 1; 15,7(55 on line 1; 14.4-4 on.I July 1, and 15, 761 on July 15.

U. of M. Summer School Closes Sessions Friday Oronn, Me., Aug. 4—T!ic twenty second session of the summer term of the University of Maine closed to day. Tlio total registration was 300, which is considerably in excess of any previous registration. Fifty-six of tlie students held collegiate de grees and a large majority of the re mainder were under-graduate stu dents from 33 different colleges ar.d universities. Three departments were introduced this year,—biology, commercial branches and physical training,—enrolled a fair number of students. The work in commercial branches was conducted by Mis. Stickney of the Arlington, Mass. High school. In connection with the biology courses an elaborate porgram of sub jects relating to public health was featured. lectures were given by members of the department and by such specialists as Dr. A. O. Young, Dr. O. Kimball, Dr. F. C. Tyson, Dr. F. Welch. Dr. IT. Coombs, Surgeon W. F. Draper and Mr. Thur ber and Miss. Soule of the State Health department. Every morning at 10 o'clock a 15-minute assembly was held in the chapel where a brb f religious exercise was followed by an address from a member of the facul ty or a selection of instrumental or vocal music. The most noteworthy literary per formance of the session was the read THE WONDERFUL FRUIT MEDICINE “Fruit-a-tives” Is the Only Remedy Made From Fruit Juices Marvelous Results The fact that “Fruit-a-tives” is the only medicine in the world made from fruit juices—that it is entirely different from any other preparation for the treatment of disease—is the i one big reason why so many people are willing to give it a fair trial. They have used dozens of other treatments for Constipation. Liver and Kidney Trouble; Headaches, Rheumatism I and Neuralgia; Indigestion. Dyspep sia. Nervousness; Lack of Appetite, Poor Blood. Skin Diseases and run down condition of the system. They realize that they must have some thing different from the ordinary remedies in order to cure them selves. “Fruit-a-tives” is different. It is the discovery of a physician, who— after long experiments—succeeded in transforming the juices of apples, oranges, figs and prunes into an en tirely new compound. By combining these intensified fruit juices with I tonics and antiseptics, he created a 1 new substance, which had all the medicinal properties of fresh fruit, i but in a more efficient form. There can be no substitute for ‘'Fruit-a tives” because “Fruit-a-tives” is the j only medicine made from fruit juices. 50c a box, C for ?2.50, trial size 25c.

On Friday eve nings were held literary, dramatic, and musical entertainments which were followed by dancing in the gymnasium. Excursions to Castine, Bar Harbor, Moosehcad Lake and other resorts were arranged for the j week ends. .1. TV. Taylor of the State Department of Education fulfilled his duties as lecturer in education by giv ing a series of addresses to students i of this department.

Munsey Fighting ^Continued from Page One) August IT, or any other date until after important committee amend ments had been disposed of. Late in the afternoon the Senate got back to the tariff bill, finishing up committee amendments in the sched ule on paper and books. There was onlv one real controversy, the lJemo j crats making a strenuous _ light against the proposed duty of 3,> per cent ad valorem on stereotype matrix mat or boanja. Opposing the 33 percent duty Sen ator Simmons said it was admitted that the Wood-Flung Company of Xe\v York City had a monopoly of the business of making* these mats, used by newspapers and that it had conducted an "insolent" campaign of propaganda. Senator I-’relinghuysen. Republican, New Jersey, championed the duty, declaring it necessary to keep out the German product. He as sorted it was a uuestion ot protection of nil American monopoly against a German monopoly. Asserting that Mr. Mun \v had in terests in steel plants, min s, glass factories, pottery plants, woolen mills, lti beet sugar lactones and other in dustrial institutions m foreign lands. Senator Godding declared it was "not hard to understand why Mr. Munsey has turned his hounds loose on these senators who are trying to protect American industries and American labor.” “Nor is it strange that he lias singled out the mom hers of the tar iff bloc of tlie Senate," he continued, “for without the steadying influence of the tariff bloc this piopaganda that lias been going on by Munsey. Goldman and the International bank ers of their kind, would have de feated any attempt to pass a protec tive tariff measure at this session. “So 1 say to Mr. Munsey and his 'hounds, let them come on. 1 will take my chances with the American farmer, the. American manufacturer, 'ti e American laborer and the Amer ican people, regardless of what occu pation they follow, while lie. hobnobs! w ith royalty and exploits the poorly I paid labor of Europe.” I'rging adoption of his resolution 1 proposing an investigation of Mr.! Munsey and Republican newspapers opposing the tariff. Senator Gooding told the Senate that "in view of Mr. Munsey’s great newspaper holdings in America and his effort to prejudice j public opinion against American! legislation in the interest of his for- cian investments, the people of the Ended States have a light to know' all the facts relating to Mr. Munsey’s foreign holdings in European indtts- tries, stocks, bonds and other co,mi. tics.” "If the senators who have stood for protection to American industries and American labor are to be black mailed in the interest of j|r, Man sex's fmoipn investments," lie added, then 1 want to know about it.” liile we are investigating: Mr. Munsey," Senator Gooding: continued, ‘we should also investigate tlie finan cial interests of other newspapers sat h as the Huston Herald anti those which is advertises as its associates in tin plan to sill America to Euro pean manttfat Hirers, and merchants.

Polley, ‘'Human Fly." to Climb Tonight Water street in the vicinity of the I corner of Church will probably be ton J congested for traffic tonight at tl.Xtl t o’clock, as George Policy, known far and wide as 1he “Human Fly,’’ is scheduled to ascend the front of the Maine Trust Ranking building at that hour. j In his entire career as a climber 1his ^-year-old young man has never vet encountered a building whose face was so forbidding as to prevent his conquering it. Even the Little build ing at the corner of Tremont and Boylston streets. Boston, which 1 structural engineers said was a physi cal impossibility to climb, has had no terrors for him and he has gone to the top. Tn Lewiston he ('imbed tbe City hall and Manufacturers' bank, in Portland the Fidelity building, i City hall tower and Congress Square hotel. George Polley has been climbing for 1 years and during that time he has [scaled some of America's highest buildings, among them being: The Wnnlwnrth building. 57 stories. Singer building, 47 stories. Times building, 20 stories. Astor, Claridge, and Mc Alpine hotel buildings: in Chicago h» has climbed 1he Masonic building. 21 i stories. Railway exchange, 24 stories and scores of other skyscrapers. This young man, who has a pieas l ing personality, uses no ropes, hooks nor any mechanical aids. It is his strength and agility that has earned for him the peculiar position he now [occupies in the athletic world. Glad j in his immaculate white suit he i astounds the onlookers as be goes up the face of the building and then further thrills his audience by a series of blood chilling stunts per formed on the edge of the structure. Most of us are willing to "let George j do it." but we all want to sec him when he does it. AMUSEMENTS i _ VALENTINO DANCED HIS WAY TO SUCCESS Hero of Ingram's “The Four Horse men" Won Chance from His Danc I ng I Rudolph Valentino, the celebrated I young dancer w ho has the leading male role in The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse," a Rex Ingram pro f daction for Metro, now being shown at the Johnson Opera House found his way to fame and fortune through I his nimble feet. When you see Mr. Valentino in this screen adaptation of the world famous novel of Vicente Blasco lban ez by June Mathis and notice his fin ished acting, the sure swagger of the cafe scenes laid in the Argentine, the polish of his manner in interpreting j the student and lover in Paris, it will be your unuuestionable opinion that I here is a man initiated in theatrical 1 ways as a child. But it was neither as a dancer nor an actor that Mr. Valentino hoped to take fortune hr storm. It was in the mors humble sphere as a. prospective agriculturist that bs came to the Un ited States, at the age of eighteen, a giaduate from the Royal Military College of Agriculture at Genoa, Ita ly. As he planned his future he would become one of the great land o.vners in this country of opportunity. But things happened swiftly for him in New York. .®oon he was busy teaching Broadway's regulars his graceful steps. He appeared at Kee- j tor's as a dancing partner of Bonnie Glass, following this engagement with one in the "Winter Garden and a long term contract in vaudeville. From dancing to motion pictures was an easy stop.

EXPEDIENCY FALLS DOWN "The doctrine that the morally right consists in doing what is most expedient or advantageous under the circumstances: "utilitarian wisdom,’’ such are some of the definitions Webster gives for the word ‘'expe diency” as used in ethics. The world has great cause to be thankful that men have not always acted in accordance with utilitarian wisdom and for the immediate ad vantage to be gained, but with a view to the ultimate advantages, in many instances not the advantages of themselves or their friends but of the cause which they espoused. Because of those who saw beyond the immediate expediency, faith is sustained which otherwise might be weakened and our conception of the good is not hounded by measure of the food in our stomachs, the money In our pockets and the clothes on am backs. George Washington was in eminently practical man but had he acted always according to the dictates of expediency history would not he till1 same, neither would the ideals of our country be the same. Expediency is a mild term with which to characterize some of the dickering there has bee n w it la railroad questions in. recent years. Industrial peace at any price would he more expressive As one result no one connected with tills phase of enter prise really knows where he is at from one week's end to another. Xor lias any solution of the problem been afforded, tin the contrary we have been c-'ing m inure and more deeply. It is not so mur h a cause for ap pM Pension that we have failed to fin a solution, which all must now i e a 117 e pi In an exceedingly difficult thing, ns live evidence that we have been complicating the situation. We d Stab s. Two tunnels are to be bored tinder mount.i ins At the beginning of op I it ns A I pass" tunnel was start ed tn eider to dispose of tbe Peer fVld river. While the rut Is being fill ed.

The dam will not be i completed until 1924 and will prob- I ably cost $8,000,000. The industri- al activities of this part of northern I N'ew England will, no doubt, be greatly increased, with the comple tion of-the new dam. WHY NOT HAVE FULL-TIME NURSE? Just what is being done to provide *\ugusta with a full-time nurse? Or hasn't anything been done about it? That record of health statistics for the year 1020 still stands, unrelieved by any improvement ns yet mani fested. Let's take another look at that record: Augusta with a rate of 10", Lewiston 181, Sanford lit. Portland 113, Wnterville 03. Watorville with 63 has an all-time city nurse; Augusta without the all- i time city nurse showed 160 to Water- j ville's 63. Of course the statistics for ,iust one year aren't conclusive but they arc worthy of attention. Does anyone know wherein, outside the services of an all-time city nuise, the community of Watcrville posses ses any advantages over Augusta in the way of healthful surroundings? If there are any it would be a favor to make them public. Does anyone know any good reason why Augusta should not have the services o"f an all-time city nurse? There is plenty of work for her to do. work that is sorely needed to be done, if the evidence is to he cred ited; work without which Augusta’s record will not be creditable and many will not have the opportunities for regaining or maintaining health; without which many infants will die that otherwise might be saved, many mothers will not learn that which they might learn through contact, with the full-time nurse. Why, in view of all this, should there be delay? RAILROAD GROUPINGS The people -of the State have been given opportunity to express an opinion respecting the proposed grouping of our railroads. That a greater volume of opinion has not been expressed may be due, probably is. to the feeling that the average man while entertaining prejudices or preferences, does not possess what he deems information enough to ad- vocate or oppose any specific plan. I There naturally is a wide-spread reluctance to have the Maine rail roads dominated by outside influence or made subsidiaries for development of territory outside their sphere, which is Maine. The real success of the Maine railroads naturally lies in the successful development of the State. On the other hand grouping with railroad Interests having far reaching influence and desirous of i encouraging the growth of the Maine i territory expecting thereby to in- 1 crease the volume of shipments, rail- 1 road that are being successfully j managed as railroads, would mani- festly have advantages, and on the 1 face of things scarcely need excite apprehension. There is a protective factor which is favorable to the Maine roads: the Grand Trunk and the Canadian Pacific roads are not likely to be affected by any, of the proposed j groupings and will be here to do business with whenever for #ny reason there is business to be done. Tbe agreement of the railroads to stand by their new workers was j next written on a scrap of, paper'' or in water. DON'T INCUR A STRAIN Somewhere alone: (he line of his dispensing «of Democratic campaign gospel the Democratic candidate for Governor lias remarked that if he became Governor h" would know what is being done with our high Thc letter of t'ne chairman of me Highway Commission, published else where in this issue, will give him some of the information which it scents eminently desirable that lie should possess. If one is to he charitable to the candidate it becomes necessary to assume tiiat lie‘didn't know what be was talking about when he was rn gag d in criticizing the highway it flairs of the State. Anyhow it is in evidence that lie had not t Do slightest occasion in Die \^>rhl to go about sowing the supposition that the State of .Main 1 through its high way department is spending $1T.C()0 for constructing a piece i oad third of a mile long in M ilton. (if course the Democratic t tndi- j date for Governor w ill hasten by all the means and arts at his disposal to correct his misstatements and to remove such apprehension ns lie may by means of these have succeeded in implanting in the minds of his hearers. Perhaps the readers of the Journal, who are equipped with radio outfits, will he able to “listen in" when the distinguished campaigner confesses on the rostrum that the town of Wilton and not the State of Maine is the builder of tills particular road 1 for which he endeavored to blame the State Highway department. Of course due precautions should he taken not to strain one's listening apparatus'. SPECIAL DAYS IN SCHOOL A Maine teacher was hoard to re mark this spring that her hands fair ly trembled when she took tip a newspaper prom the expectation of seeing some kind of a new “Day" to be observed in school. It was be coming a difficult feat to find any time to teach “the three R's." One i man, state superintendent of public instruction in Vermont, Clarence H. Dempsey, doesn't believe a poor thing is a good thing or that even a good thing may not “be run into the ground.” Mr. Dempsey raises no objections to the special exercises to promote the genuine aeti\ities which form a legitimate part 'of the curriculum. The record kept by him discloses the i following facts: ‘‘There wore calls for the observ- j nneo of in special weeks, such as iire prevention week and ele.an-up week,] and for the celebration of 15 days of the nature of tliiift-day and kind ness-to-animals day. Kievan clubs, including the Hod Cross and Audu bon Societies, asked for consideration of their campaigns; contributions were sought for six other good caus es. and participation was urged in five national essay contests. Mean while there wore in practically every community local interests which wished to set before the pupils the merits of their individual activities." Is it not true, that the special day and the special week in school is be ing over-done? Schools should not he used ns an inexpensive source of advertising of commercial activities. The public school is no place for tbe solicitation Of money. Generally the money has to come out of the patents who ear. sometimes afford to contrib ute, but who more often can not. A social stigma often rests upon the pu pil who dors not contribute generous ly to every worthy cause. The con tinual begging should not be allowed 1 to deteriorate into something which closely resembles indirect taxation. "The powers that he" can help dis ci iminate the essential from the non essential of these special days. Last ly, not the worthiness of the cause, but the educational value to the child should he considered. I,ct us not have "too much of a good tiling.” Cessation of hut one minute on thirteen million telephones out of respect to (he memory of Alexander Graham Bell was a tribute which fittingly could lie given to no other man. The significance of it deserves more Ilian one minute of reflection by all of us. And h> the way, the Russian communists pay no tribute to such men. Neglect and starvation if n"t worse have hern their position in that country. These repot is of the number of cars passing a given point might lie referred to the Democratic candi date for Governor who is criticising the highway expenditures. i It (might he “expedient" to check the flow of tears for suffering coal miners and inquire why more wish to he coal miners than the work requires. Evidently not a broken Heed but decidedly bent. Member Poland Board Of Selectmen Dies Lewiston, Me.. Atig. 4—Walter C. Frank of Poland died at tlie Central Maine General hospital yesterday, following a surgical operation. Mr. Frank was born at East. Poland, du ly 12, ISfiO. He married Miss Alice Duran, who died in 1S94. Subse quently lie married Mrs. Margaret D.

Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound for [weaKness and ir regularity. I was weak and nervous and could hardly stand on my feet long enough to conk a meal. I was this way for about a year and had tried several med icines and had a physician, but to no avail. My sis ter was taking your medicine and finally induced me to try it. I now feel fine and can do my housework without any trouble at ali. You can use this letter for the sake of others if you wish.” Mrs. Weldon G. Hatfield, R. R. 3, Sa bina, Ohio. Housewives make a groat mistake in allowing themselves to become so weak and nervous that it is well-nigh impossible for them to attend to their necessary household duties. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound should be taken when you first notice such symptoms as ner vousness, backache, weakness and ir regularity. It wiil help you ar.d pre vent mere cerious trouble. “Missourian” No. 10 Well Known South, China Farmer and Dairyman “Has Been j Shown” Arthur Hallowell makes a state ment regarding con s. Mr. Hallowell says: “About 3 years ago my cows came j in from pasture and 1 started to do my milking. The first one would not allow me to touch her teats and fin ally kicked the milk pail nearly across the barn floor. I was at a loss to know the cause. I tried the rest of them and they all acted the same. 1 was puzzled but finally decided it i was sun burn as it had been an ex- j ceedingly hot day. I had a bottle of i Young's Cure Oil and applied it to j each one and when X got back to the first one she was os gentle as she ever was and I had no trouble finishing my milking. “Jsince then I have kept a bottle in my linter constantly and have in duced some of my neighbors to use Young's Cure Oil and they have ob tained like results. “I also used it on one cow that had been stepped on by another cow tear ing an ugly gash in her teat. It healed it perfectly.” Y'oung's Cure Oil is sold in Augus ta by John Coughlin, B. E. Bither; Waterville, John It. DeOrsny, Larkin Drug Co.—Adv.

While working in her garden Mrs. l'luella Houston of Weld dug up an old-fashioned coin, a cent coined in 17PS, probably dropped by one of the early settlers, as this piece of ground has not been plowed for many years. One of the finest gardens in Auburn is that of John F. Clifford, Carnage avenue. Mr. Clifford is now S5 years old, but his hand has not lost its cun ning, and each day finds him at his task of weeding and hoeing. His po tato patch may be called his special pride.

INTO ONE SYSTEM (Continued from Page One) Augusta is secretary of the commit tee. Kx-Governor Miliiken, chairman, stated at the outset that tliis was the last of the series of hearings and that this heating as well as giving the people of this section a chance to he heard, would in a way be a summary of the previous sessions. The first speaker was Hon. W. ,J. Thompson of South China. State Grange master, who stated that he could not speak officially for the State Grange ns they had had no meetings at which this matter had been given discussion, but that dur ing the past several weeks when he had been in different parts of the State he had taken occasion to speak with ttie leading farmers of the var ious sections on this subject, the proposed consolidation of the rail roads of Maine, of New Kngland, or of the Kastern part of the country. Those with whom he had talked were universally opposed to any large group being formed. IIo said that personally he would he sorry to think of any large group of Kastern rail roads bring formed. He stated that "hen the railroads came into exist ance, they were built by our own people and largely by our own capi tal. "The State of Maine doesn't "ant to mix its cream with the oth ers' skim milk," "as the manner in '.licit Mr. Thompson stated the sit uation. Air. Thompson stated that he de- i plored ttie present tendency of state management of local affairs, or a**v- crnmental management* of state af- 1 fairs, and he said that tiie railroads of Maine are different from those of' -New Jersey and other interstate sec- tions because we are at the end of tile hue. Primarily the lines are for our own tise. .Ninety percent of the use of the railroads is local. “1 should hate to see the management of our I business go out of the Slate and par- 1 tinularly out of New England,” said Mr. Thompson, lie pointed out that while it may he true that there are some economies in combining two or three small railroads, it does not fol low that the larger the combinations i the greater the economies. He said f lie had a feeling against the Maine j railroads being combined in any large j unit, and that he found that tlie ay- crage farmer had the same feeling. I lit answer to a question by Mr. Milliken, Mr. Thompson stated that i lie does not find the question being discussed very much, hut it is not be cause the people are not interested. I Favors New England Consolidation C. T.. M'hittemore of Itoston. secre- fary of the New Kngland l’apor Pulp Traffic Association, stated that his association strongly favored a consolidated New Kngland railroad system which would comprise the Bangor «fc Aroostook. Maine Central, J the entire Boston Maine, the Rut- land and the New York, New Haven Hartford railroads. “This will give us a New England system, which should lie owned by New England interests, officered by Now England men, leaving us free of outside domination,'' said Mr. Wliittc more. "'Ye have in mind at Past two New England railroad officers whom we would like to see in full charge of all I our transportation facilities,'’ contin ued Mr. ’Whittemore. “There are many advantages to be derived from a consolidation. First j and foremost, it would prevent ab- sorption by foreign interests, many operating economies would be possi- j' Ide and in times of congestion every 1 available route could be utilitied in- i Mead of having tIi« traffic. as in lln' past ns well ns today, more or loss restrictr:i 1 business street of the tow n of Wilton, pracf ieally city street construction. In order to straighten the highway it was necessary to re construct- two masonry retaining walls, one of which is located in the liver, the other being located against the face of a high cut, which will tie taken down, the cut widened and the wall rebuilt. The work also com jirehenils the reconstruction of a con crete, sidewalk, which change In the alignment of the road makes ncees sa i y. Jt is thus seen that the Democratic candidate, instead of criticising the work of the State Highway Commis sion, is criticising ttie voluntary act of tin- voters of the town of Wilton, an act which was twice before them and twice received the sanction of the voters, once at the, annual town inerting and again at a special town meeting. As this statement has hern freely circulated from one end of the Rtat* to the other, I am taking the liberty of making this letter public, in order that the public may have the exact statement of fact with respect to this job. Yours very truly. (Signed) W. M. AYER __CblraML

The season will open this year, ns last, with Morse High at Augusta, Cony's opponents to date include Lewiston. Edward Little, Ab bott School, AVaterville and Gardiner. Coach Thompson has been in cor respondence with athletic authorities of both Hangor High and Portland high to see if games could not be ar ranged to fill the two open dates on the schedule. Bangor could not make her dates jibe with Cony's, and as yet no answer has been received from the Portland management. There is yet hope that a game may he put through with the Forest City gridiron warriors. After Cony's de feat of Portland on the diamond, it would be a battle royal for suprem acy on the barred field. The Cony sriuad will be strength I cned by the return of eight of her first string players of last season. [Jack Stafford, Sylvester Poor, and i Sonny Gray being the only veterans I lest from the squad by graduation. The entire first string backtick! w ill return this fall if their plans go through as they think, Frank Far rington, lion Brennan and Lee Aus tin. captain-elect for the coming sca 1 son. are a trio of pigskin warriors that can hardly be equalled in any high school in the State.

If all the material in the school answers the call for a big squad. Coach Thompson should have one of 1 the best aggregations in the State.

MILLIONAIRES' BIO THIRD IS ENOUGH TO TURN BACK LEWISTON LANKY JORDAN HURLS NICE GAME Despite a patched up inner defense the Millionaires came through with a win yesterday. Lewiston was the i victim. The score was S to 1. Lankev Jordan was to blame for it. Lankev was imported for the occas ion. and it proved to be some occas ion; also some importation. Lankev j is a cross between a bean pole and a J windmill and this peculiar build sure i gives him some advantage. His windup sort of fascinates one and when he delivers the pill he reaches half the distance to the plate and his stride is the other half. He didn't seem to have much on the ball but there were a lot of easy pops and rol l I I I I i I lers. Yossir, Lanky was pretty much the whole show, but there were others who momentarily held the attention of the fans. Perhaps the most not iceable of these was the terrific bar rage staged by the entire Millionaire lineup in the third. In this hectic Canto ten money men faced the hitherto effective Buck Gaudettc. Ar tie Abbott started the show with a two cushion shot that caromed off Wiggin's glove after a hard run. There was a momentary lull while Jordan popped to Mathews. Then came the bingles thick and fast. Kil patrick whaled one over Trumbower’s head and perched on third. Murray puked one to left. Bowdoin crashed another to Center. Sau.anto poled a double to left Center. Graves sizzled one through the box. Sukefnrth shot one to lift. Then with six runs across the rubber. Pat French varied the program by tapping out a sac rifice and another tally came in. Ab bott up for 1 lie second time was ton tent to pop to Mathews. Augusta's other rim came in th" j seven’ll. “Rugged" Beaudoin, angered beeauso two strikes bad been called on him. 1ool r Id) po a Kilpat rii k Murrax ill Beaudoin li Wilson rt Graves Suk--!orl h French lli Alilot 1 "I i Jordan ;i 1 I 1 till I 1 1 1 0 .1 1.\YIS T i X r Mi po Wispin it Hammond if Bissnnelte lb Leavitt i- Morrill rs i t:ill.i* tto ii Callahan .'ill Mathews 21 Tin nilov.fr It a Totals _ Augusta Be v i don Homo run 11 27 12 I! 1 n fi 2 .Hu 1 5 2 4 'I 0 T 0 n 0 1 0 x—1 .0 n a n 0 I n fl li 1 Beaudoin.

THE VILLAGE SPORTSTER AUGUSTA TO FAIRFIELD ON GALLON GAS Those energetic young men at the Watcivilli' Motor Co. whose- duty it is to sell Sudcbuk‘-r cars have been making some pretty strong talk bout low eas consumption. Having made the talk they wished d> hack it up with facts and figures m l now they feel they have done it. t'n just one gallon of gasoline, they made the run from Augusta to J'air lirM. It was a t ona fide test, too, as will hr proved by the way they conducted (>n Aug. Kdward P Maiden, the local inanag.-i; 1 A. Blanchard and V. A. Hussey, two of tin salesmen, diseonneeted the feeding system of a Stud: hnkor light six h urine car. livery drop of gas was out of the regular tank. Then a gallon can of gasoline was suspended over tie en gine and th*. trip was started from the building of the llussey Hard ware Co. ori Bangor street. Tile State road to Watorvilh was followed, but two stops wen ncors srry because of rough places. Ke en with these, the car was kept go ing. Watorville was sight'd and still the engine was going and ilicn right through the crowded streets of the city the six made her way. Not until the- line of Fairfield was rf!4, hut he did not touch the city wall. The Can tonese themselves are now engaged in pulling it down, so that motor ears and electric tramway ears may have a. track around the- largest city in China. The other city walls of this long-lived, undying people will also crumble and disappear when the in habitants of the cities hear the thiol) of the internal-combustion engine. The city of Canton has a popula tion of more than a million people within the walls, but it is said to pus ses* at present one motor car. That is surely a “record' for any city of the same size that is accessible to ocean-gome steamers. But soon, when the city wall has disappeared, a road. Hit) feet wide, will enable wheeled vehicles to encircle Canton. They cannot penetrate the city un less there is a complete reconstruc tion: for in the matter of thorough fares Canton is unique. Only a se dan chair can pass between the shops, and only at certain places can one chair pass another. Outside of the city wall there is a very large population, and many thousands of families live in little boats on the river. But the internal-combustion engine is changing water traffic around Canton. Motor boats have made more rapid progress than mot el cars, for the traffic of China is like that of Venice, along the waterways. —Canton Times.

Engineers wearing asbestos gloves applied a plumber’s blow torch to the gases now rushing out the exhaust pipe. Halls of flame shot across the room! The exhaust gas contained unburned gasoline in large quantities. The horsepower contained in each flame was a total waste. Here was the proof! Ordinary sluggish gasoline could not vaporize fast enough to produce full engine power. About 87 of the power in the ordinary sluggish gasoline vou buy today is wasted and unused. And yet this is not the total loss. Carbon, slow pick-up, loss of power, diluted oil—these are the results. Utilizing every drop of gasoline The next test was to compare ordinary gasoline with Tydol, the Economy Gasoline. Now, even with a cold engine, there was no waste gasoline to ignite. It was impossible to light the exhaust gases. With Tydol. complete, instantaneous explosions in the cylinders drive your engine without such waste. Tydol vaporizes fast. Fill up with Tydol.

PLANS FOR FIELD MEET OF MAINE GEOLOGISTS’ ASSO’N., AUG. 11, AUBURN Plans for the first meeting ot the Association of Maine Geologists, to be held in the region around Lewis- ton and Auburn on Friday, August 11, have progressed rapidly and ar rangements have now been made which will insure an interesting and profitable day and evening for all who participate. The headquarters will be av the Auburn Chamber of Commerce, and the start for the excursion will be made from there at 9 A. M.. prompt ly, in automobiles which have been provided by the members of the local committee. As the field will continue all day, lunches must be taken; if those intending to be present will notify X. It. Tracy, 15 Walnut street, Auburn, Maine, provision will be made for these, thus saving delay and annoyance at the last moment. The chief interest will doubtless centre in the large deposits of peg matite rock on and about Mount Apatite. F. F. Burr of Augusta, sec retary of the association, pointed out Friday. These constitute one of the chief sources of the feldspar which is used in the making of porcelain in the great manufacturing centers of Trenton, New Jersey, and Fast Liverpool, Ohio. The deposits are also noted for the production of many rare and beautiful minerals, Including fine gem tourmalines and beryls, and a large variety of crystalline ma terials which are found in few other places. Men will be present who can supply information in regard to every phase of the geology, min eralogy and economic development of the pegmatites; and an unusual opportunity will be offered to tnose who are interested in learning more about the mineral resources of Maine. A representative of one of the largest electric insulator manu facturing concerns in Ohio has stated that Maine feldspar and quartz are standard ingredients in their prod uct; people outside of Maine know more about these things than we do; isn't It about time for Maine people to learn something about their own resources? It is. perhaps, hardly necessary to tell visiting geologists and mineral ogists that the pegmatites present many points which arc quite as in teresting from a purely scientific as from an economic standpoint. Full attention will bo given to problems of origin, relations to the wall-rocks, mineralization, etc. The remainder of the day will be taken up with visiting the falls of the Androscoggin at Lewiston, and other places of geologic interest in llie vicinity. Among the features to be noted will be the pot-holes and other erosional features in the riv< r bed, trap dikes, and various types of glacial drift forms in the open country outside of the cities. The program for tlie evening will be carried out at the rooms of the Auburn Chamber of Commerce, will include at least one paper on the i geology of the region. Geologists and other scientific j workers who are in Maine for the summer are assured of a hearty wel- j come nt Auburn on August 11.

The Fuel Emergency Calls for Facts Now To Every User of Coal in Maine: Do you realize how serious is the r-i.al situation in jour state, not only with reference to the matter of the shortage of the general supply, of both hard and soft coal, but the dif ficulty there well may be in obtain ing even a modest supply to m»ct our extreme necessities from now until spring" Governor R ixter has undertaken to s'-t up. in accord.i m e w ith Federal suggestion, an organization in the y tie, through which co.il must be obtained, if it is obtained at all. He needs, and is entitled to. the full, hearty and unselfish co-operation of every citizen of the state, and if you who are users of coal obtain any sup ply at all. you must so co-operate. The Governor is asking each deal er in hard coal to give him a state ment with reference to the supply on hand in his yard, and the require ment s of his customers during the j winter. Fnless this information i« promptly receiver), liie Governor and his committee will he unable to give tho Federal Fuel Distributor the nec essary information upon which to base the allocation to Maine of its hard coal supply (assuming that the strike is .settled, ami there is any supply.! It is possible that no soft coal will be received ami dis! libired ev pt through the Federal Distrib utor, acting in conjunction with our State of Maine Distribution Commit 1 r e. ,.\s the Federal regulation is somewhat universally understood, the Federal Distributor has absolute con trol of tiie distribution of coal to the several states. First comes railroad roal, and this will be allocated and distributed direct from Washington. Next comes the coal for public utili t.e. hospitals, public institutions, ho tel-. restaurants, and similar users, and next comes tlie industrial ust rs. who re in the lust cl tsis. As the Federal regulation D understood, tip re must be a Central State c-oniruitU-e to which all hard and soft (oil will be consigned; and that l oinmittcov ll s* t>> t-he distribution within the S'ate, This committee must, eitlpr make financial arrang ments for the purchase of the coal, or procure it through a guarantee of the porch; price. Fnless the governor and his committee know immediately what your stock of coal is at th present monvot. and what your re quir-nionts for the future at- ho will not be aide to give to the Federal distributor the information necessary. Tip state which most promptly puts its central committee in a position to give accurate information of their situation will in all probabilty be tho one to which the necessary supply of coal will first begin to flow. To those of you who fra] that you have a contract with some dealer or wi'h some operator, and that that contract will be carried opt. let me say th there is considerable doubt with reference to this. Many believe that coal so purchased, even if actually on its wav to you, may he taken by our Central Fuel committee, and distributed either to a public utility which needs it. or two others in a class above the industrial user, One—l LOVE! Two—I LOVE! Three—I LOVE! In fact you will LOVE every item of the DAISY Brand Canned Goods and Coffee. t Every one is “A DA/SY”^ l Ask your dealer for DAISY Brand products. CONANT, PATRICK CO.

TOO I PIPELESS HOT BLAST FURNACES FOR WOOD ONLY are especially planned and con structed for service and hard usage during the vigorous Maine winters. They meet all requirements. WOOD BISHOP CO. BANGOR, MAINE Established 1039 Sold by Malcolm Al Dyer Co., Augusta. Amesbury-White Co., Gardiner, Church Hardware Co., Hallo well and in that tvay coal purchased by you, and already on the way to you, may be diverted. In other words. It is possible that our entire supply of hard and soft coal will have to be pur chased and distributed through this central committee, and the industrial user who thinks he has a binding con tract may have to take his chances, unless he operates through this cen tral committee. In any event, the governor and his committee ought to have immedi ately the information from our indus trial users of coal with reference to the stock they now have on hand, and their requirements for the future, to the end that if the Federal dis tributor should rule that all coal, re gardless of existing contracts, must l,e received by, and distributed through, these state central organiza tions. you will be in a position to re eeive just treatment in such distri bution. 1 therefore ask every industrial us-r of coal to immediately, by wire, give the governor the information herein outlined, to the end that our central committee may be in a posi tion to immediately present Maine's needs, and begin to supply Maine's wants. !.'-t each corporation, or les ser industrial user, of soft eoal feel that the success of our Slate Fuel I list ribut ing committee depends upon his particular prompt acquiescence to tins request. 1 am not speaking for the governor, but am putting forth this statement in the interest of industri.il users of soft coal, so that by helping the govern or's committee they may be assisting themselves.

BELFAST From California to New York on a motorcycle is the experience of a Bel fast boy, Walter Page, a former tele graph messenger but since 1919 in the United States Air service and sta tioned in the Phillipines. Young rage learned telegraphy in the local office of the Western Union during his days of messenger service and this he continued in the Philippines, taking tip radio also and flying. He is in Belfast the first time since his enlistment in 1919. The P. R. Swan T.and Co. of Port land, which is developing a tract of land in Belfast from Xorthport ave nue to the shore, has already dis posed of a great many of the lots, most of which have been bought by Belfast people. A Near Accident What might have, been a bad acci dent had Ihe car been going at an average speed, took place about 6 o'clock on Xorthport avenue, Thurs day night, when the Buick car owned by Mrs. O. Chipman Tineo and driven by her brother-in-law, Harold Hol lingshcad. backed into a hole caused by digging for a waterpipe and which was not marked by anything to warn the driver. It was while backing that the rear right hand wheel sang into the mire nearly out of sight and it was necessary to have the ear hauled out. Had a car been going full speed ahead and turned rut into the side of the, road and struck the hole, it would undoubted edly have caused a serious If not fatal accident. The hole, which was covered by a pile of dry dirt, was two or three feet deep and a perfect quag mire. Mrs. Holmes Entertains Mrs. C. B.
