Thurber of this city has biossomed out as an inventor of no mean abiiity. He has perfected an attachment for Ford cars that is known as T and T IntensiHer and Switchboard and has started manu facturing his appiiance. The inten siHer. is a simpie arrangement that can be attached in 10 minutes, and gives almost absolute assurance of elimination of wire troubles while 33 percent more power is produced with a saving of 25 percent in gas. The fact that rainy weather w ill not effect the wiring system of the pop ular car will insure a rosev future for its inventor and manufacturer. The very simplicity of the attach ment makes it attractive, and the increased power and gas saving qual ities add to its value. Mr. Thurber has been at work on this new feature for Fords for the past year and has put himself in the position of a ben efactor to a large number of Ford owners and drivers who will wish him success in his new venture.

Oh. guards, guardv! Hosv cou d he know, guardy How could he know?" Captain Francis Xesvcombe made no movement, save to place his nrtn around the thinlv clad shoulders, and draw the little figure ctoter to him. It was dark here, she could not have seen his face anywas. but it was composed, calm, tranuuit. t'erhaps the lips straight ened a little at the corners—nothing more.

He had drawn her head against his shouider, stroking back the hair from her forehead. She raised it now quickiy. "Yes, guard;*!" she said eagerly. "I—I see; and I'm so glad I came to you at once. But—but it is so strange, and—and it still frightens me terribly. I don't understand. I— I can't understand. Why should any one ring the telephone in my room at this hour, and—and tell me a thing like that if it were not true?" "Or even if it were true—at such an hour, or in such a manner," he injected quietly. "Tell me exactly what happened, Polly." "I think I ve told you everything," she said. "I don't think there was anything else. When I answered the phone, the voice asked if I were Polly Wickes, and kept on re peating my name over and over again in a horrible, crazy, sing songy way. and then I heard a sound as though a door had been blown open by the wind, and I could hear the waves pounding, and then the door was evidently slammed shut again, and the voice said what I—1 have told you about wearing black for my mother. And then I couldn't hear anything more, and I couldn't get any answer, thcugh I called again and again into the phone. Oh. guard;*, I can't understand! I—I'm sure it was the same voice as that other night. What does it mean? Guard;-, what should we do? Who could it be?" A door blown open by the wind! The pound of the waves! Where was there a telephone that would measure up to those requirements? Xot in the house. Captain Francis Mew-combe smiled grimly in the darkness. The private installation was restricted to the house and Its immediate surroundings. Therefore the boathouse! The boathouse had a phone connection. And there was stiti an hour or more to daybreak! But hrst to shut Poiiy's mouth. "Potty." he said gravely. measur ing his words. "I haven't the stightest doubt that it was the same voice we heard in the woods: in fact. I'm quite sure of it. And Hm equatiy sure now that I know who it is." She drew hack from him in a quick, startted way. "But. guard;-, you said it was on!y some one cat-catting to-" "Yes; I know," he interrupted serious);-. "But I did not tett you what I was reatty suspicious of alt atong. With what I had to go on then, it did not seem that I had any right to do so. It's quite a different matter now, however, after what has happened tonight." ^Yes?" she prompted anxiously. "There can be onty two possibte explanations." he said. "Either some one is ptaying a cruel hoax: or it is the work of an unhinged mind, an irrational act, a phase of insanity that—" "Guard;!" she cried out sharp!v. "You mean-" "Yes," he said steadily; "I do. Bolt;-. And there can real!;- be no question about it at ail. Can you imagine any one doing such a thing mere);- from a perverted sense of humor?—any one of us here?—for it must have been one of us who is connected with the househotd in order to have had access to a tele phone.

And then the fact that you recognized the voice as the one we heard two nights ago is additions! proof, if such were needed, which it very ohviousty is not.

Mv first thought then was that it was Mr. Martin, and I was afraid that either harm bad. or might, come to him. I sent you at once back to the house, and f ran into the woods to look for him. I did not find him: and there fore. as there was atways the pos sihitity then that I had been mis taken. I fett that I ahoutd not atarm any of you here, and particularly Miss Martin, hv suggesting that Mr. Martin's condition wa/s decidcdty worse than even it was supposed to be. Is it quite piain. Potty? I fio not think we have verv far to took for the one who tetephoned vou to night." He coutd just see her In the dark ness. a tittte white, shadowy form, as she stood stightty away from him now. One of her hands was press ed in an agitated way to her face and eyes; the other stiti hetd tightly to the throat of her dressing gown. "Oh, yes. it's ptain, guards." she whispered miserabtv. "It's—it's too ptain. Poor, poor Mr. Martin! Y\hat are we to do? It would hurt Dora terribly if aha knew her father had done this. I—I can't tetl her." "Of course, you can't." said Cap tain Xewcomhe grave];. "Tour position is even more delicate than mine was the other night. I do not see that you can do anything—ex cept to say nothing about it to any one for the present." "Yes." she agreed numbly. She began to move toward door. "It's not likety to happen again." aaid Captain Francis Xewcombe reassuringiy; "and anyway, you can make sure it won't hy just teaving the receiver off the hook. Do that. Potty." And then. soticitousty: "But you're not frightened any more now. are you. Potty? A mystery expiained toses its terror, doesn't it? And. besides, the main thing was to know that our mother was at! right." "My mother-" He thought he heard her catch her breath in a quick, sudden haif sob. "It's at! right. Potty." he said hastitv. "Don't think of that part of it any more. Everything's aii right." "Yes: T—I know." Her voice was very tow. "It's—att right. I—good night. guardy." She had opened the door. "I'il see you to your room." he said. "Xo." she answered: "I'm not frightened any more. Good—good night. guardy." "Good night. Potiy." he said. ipe door ciosed. Captain Francis Xewcombe stood in the darkness.

Under decisions reached this after noon, on the eve of the arrivai of the American athletes at Cherbourg Head Coach Robertson announced definitely that J. H. Waiters wou^d run in the 800 metre event, replacing Hav W atson who has been assigned to the 1.500 metre race in the place of James K. Connolly. Hnal appeal to be permitted to run in the 1.500 metre contest was re jected. Joie's endeavors will be con Hned to the S.000 metre event only. In the case of Ray. Coach Robertson feels that the program is such that it would be too great a strain on Kay to run in two events involving four straight days of hard racing, parti cularly as the Chicagoan is not be lieved at his best right now. Con nolly has been given a berth on the team race in which Kirby. Larrivee. Tibbetts and Cox are entered. Coach Robertso n disclosed that there has been no change in the in dividuals slated to run in the 400 and 1.800 metre relays. Thus Bur gess. Cochran. Helffrich adn Mac Donald will compete in this event. The sprint relay team has not been Hnaily decided upon hut it was said that Francis Hussey and I.ouis Clark may be given a chance as will prob ably Geprge L. Hill and Loren Mur chison. who are entered In one in dividual sprint only. The only other changes in the slate were made by Coach Robertson several days ago when it was de cided that Glenn Hartranft would be definitely entered in the discus, re placing W ayne Johnson, who has, been added to the 10.000 metre event in which Booth. Gray and Earl John- son have already been assigned. With few exceptions the entries wili foliow in the order of the Hnai trials, it is thought, with the excep tion of the changes already noted. W. A. Comins has already replaced William Dowding as the fourth man in the broad jump. Murchison has gained the 100 metre assignment over Hussey and Paddock has dispiaced C.nrk in the 200 metre dash. Coach Robertson is eiated over the condition of the men which he de- dares is the best of any team ever stn* abroad.

Harmony By Education Urged By Jap Educator Los Angeles. June 2a (A. P.)— I-'rienaship between America and Japan would be enhanced by the spreading in Japan of the informa tion that the majority of American peopte are not prejudiced agatnst the Japanese, according to an opin ion expressed hereby Dr. Danjo Ebuna, president of the Dasshisha University at Kyoto, Japan. "ff America, through her oiHcial and unofhcia) representatives in Jap an. faiis to broadcast this durable information among the Japanese," spid Dr. Ebuna. "then it is probable I that my people, in view of recent events, wiil imagine that America is I against them and wilt sek to unite I the entire orient in a sentiment un favorable to the Occident. regret the new didiculty that has arisen be j cause of a possibie mlsunderstand ing between the American peopie and the Japanese." Mince Japan forsook the customs of the orient 7t) years ago, the edu cator said, she has been foilowing the wa)a of America as much as i possible, politically, socially, eco j nomicaily, and even religiously, in spite of the fact that Japan's attitude toward western civilisation was re warded by the suspicion and hatred of China, Korea and other oriental countries. "When Japan turned her face to ward the Occident, ill feeiing sprang up between Japan and China." Dr Ebuna asserted. "China considered Japan an imitator of the west, ant Japan began to look upon China a) a hopelessiy reactionary nation. am happy to say. however, that thii ill feeiing has largely disappearet and that China and Korea are adopt in# the ways of Japan. "In their social life, as well as It other respects, i find that you; American civilization has tended tt elevate greatly the Japanese peoph and your criticism, as wel! as you; sympathy, has contributed to the! improvement."

SPORTS (Continued^ front Sporting British Ban GoM H €!ub With Stte! Shaft London, June 7 (A. P. by Maii)— C The Acceptance of the use of ateei B shafted goif ciubs by the governing m \body of the game tn America meeta witit no approve! tn Great Britain. For thia there are many expiana ^^tions. fn the (irat piece, there ia the a. inherent Britiah diainciination to ac cept anything new. but beyond thia reason for repeiiing noveitiea that seek to croaa the Atiantic, there ia. in thia caae. a genera) feeiing that the Americana are aiwaya trying to make the game of gotf eaaier and more mechanics t. Consequently the Britiah fee) that it ia up to them, who nurtured the game in ita in fancy, to aee that it keepa the char acter of ita youth. it was this feeiing which led the royai and ancient iaw.making body to forbid use of the punched and cut-faced irons which the American entrants in test year's Open Cham pionship brought over. If anyone icings steei-shafted ciubs from America to .this year's champion ships it wit) be a waste of cargo space. because the governing body is certain to bar them. Just before the amateur cham pionships began at 8t. Andrews iast month, the ruies of goif committee posted a notice in the ciub-house iepioring" the use in the game of goif of "implements which have never been associated with it." The notice was poiite, but intended, no doubt, to make those who faited to heed its mora! iesson just a itttie bit ashamed of themseives. It read as foiiows: "The Ruies of Goif committee hope that goifera. before making use of abnormal methods of piay or of abnormai implements, wiit earneatiy consider whether they are acting in conformity with the spirit of the ruiea of goif, and in particuiar with the regqiations governing the form and make of goif ciuha. "The committee considers it is,to be deplored that piaycrs, instead of trying to master the use of goif ciubs, should endeavor to overcome the difHcuities of the gams by using impiementa which have never been associated with it." At the time of its appearance, the peopie at 8t. Andrews interpreted the notice as a hint to H. D. Giiites. a weii-known British amateur, to give up the "Etffei Tower" tees, some six to ten inohea high, which have excited much comment ever since he began using them iast winter. Mr. Giiites took the hint and feii back upon the ordinary iittie ciots of wet ssnd for his tees the next morning. Anyone who has foiiowed the discus sion hy British goifera and sport writers upon every American change in the game, knows that the notice is meant for them aiso.

The school annual for this year's graduating ciass is a production wor thy of many larger institutions. In its every department it will compare fa vorably with many of the college year books. It consists of 153 pages, with the text and numerous cuts on heavy calendared stock. The name. "Coniad." is derived from the name of the school with the sufiix "iad." which means things pertaining to Cony. The name selected was the result of a competi tion in which hundreds of names were suggested by the students, the one fi nally decided upon being originated by Burleigh Boyd, *24. The beautiful year book, which is bound in real brown leather with the name and school seal embossed fn gold, will be distributed to the subscribers at the high school building at 2.!" o'clock Friday afternoon. Miss Pren tiss of the faculty will have super vision of the distribution. The dedication of the "Coniad" is as foiiows: "To Alice Maud Vickery in appreciation of her long and faithful service at Cony, which ^or eighteen years has heneHtted by her tireless en ergy. keen humor, charming personality and inspiring character, this volume Is respectfully dedicated by the ciass of 1924." The order of contents is: Dedica tion. Foreword. Faculty. Classes. Ac tivities. Pubiications. Music, Organiza tions, Assemblies. Social, Athletics, Commencement. Sketches. Jokes. Ad vertisements. In the hack of the book is a blank page for autographs and the last page is a greeting to the "Coniad" of 1925. Every department has its special heading in pen and ink drawing and the various sub-divisions of each de partment are iiiustrated with photo graphs and other drawings. The art work of the Coniad of 1924 is of a par ticularly high calibre. Included in the .avishly made up volume are tributes to Principal Everett V. Perkins and Coach Clinton R. Thompson with spien did halftone cuts. The pictures of the 102 members of the ciass of 1924 are attractively grouped, with the accompanying bi ographies. which include details of their participation in schooi activi ties as weii as a w ord on* their char-** acteristics as se^p by their class mates.

Of Course Don't Need Insurance Every day somebody gets killed or seriou s!y injured in a trolley train, auto or wagon accident. You can't pick up a newspaper now adays without seeing an account of some smash-up somewhere in these busy United States, and undoubtedly there is hard!y a case where the victim or victims have any accident insurance. Take yourself for instance. Do you carry any accident insur ance? We'H bet you don't. You, like hundreds of other optimists, go on day after day reading about accidents and witnessing accidents. You shudder a bit, perhaps, at the time and say, "How awful!" but apparently you think an accident wiil never happen to you for you never take out accident insurance. Hpnest now, can you deny the wisdom of carrying accident in surance? If you should get killed tomorrow in an auto, wagon, train or trolly smash-up, wouldn't a thousand dollars be of great financial assistance to your wife and family? If you were injured and laid up so that you couldn't work for several weeks, wouldn't a payment of ten dollars per week help out a lot? Then why not get busy and secure a K. J. $1,000 Accumulative Travel Accident Policy without delay—it costs only $1.00 and gives you a full year's protection. How To Secure a K. J. $1,000 Accumulative Travel Accident Policy If You Are An Old Subscriber If you are already taking the Kennebec Journal you may secure a travel accident policy by renewing your subscription for three or more months at the regular subscription rate plus payment of $1 (75c for policy plus 25c service charge). If You Are a Mew Subscriber If you are not now taking the Kennebec Journal you may secure a policy by subscribing for three or more months at the regular subscription rate plus $1 (75c for policy plus 25c service charge).

If you are interested in our insurance policy, whether or not you are now taking the Jo urnal, we suggest that you fill in the inquiry blank at lower right and mail it to us. This will not obligate you in any way. We will then send you an application card with full informa tion and the exact amount you would have to pay. Then if you decide you wish a policy all you will have to do is fill in and sign the application card and send it with the necessary amount to us according to directions.

One of the embassies assisted in arrang ing that certain maii hetweeh Korth and South America shouid be car ried by American vesseis from the eastern coast of the United States through the Caribbean Sea and the Cana], and down the west coast of South America. Another iega tion secured an important conces aion in arranging that one visa on a passport be considered vaiid for any number of trips to and from that country during the year, thus saving thousands of doiars an nually for American business men by eiiminating the charge of (10 for each visa. The iegation at Vienna secured the reiease of bank deposita of an American concern in a Viennese hank, which had been sequestered. A iegation secured the reduction of tariff ratea on certain American goods, preventing the appiication of retroactive ciauses to those goods. Another one secured a reduction in the duties on parktng for American nutomnhiies; sttii another secured payment to a large company of 3.1.000.000 for merchandise it had tteiivered.

TEACHiNG SAFETY TO THE CHtLDREN Drowning accidents rank higir in (he cause !ist of fataiities among chiidren ant! are far more prevaient among boys than among girts. !n !!!29, there were about 8000 per sons drowned in the United States, over 6000 being mates and during that year this ciass of accidents ranked sixth in aii cases of acci dentat deaths to chiidren. These facts set forth io a ieafiet distributed by the Automohiie Lega! Association, show emphaticaiiy the need of warning the chiidren that their summer pieasures should not tnciude boating or bathing unices they have teamed to swim or are accompanied by oider persons. Boys fitted with the spirit of ad-i venture who not oniy do not obey j their parents' instructions, but arc instruments! in ieading other boys to some far-away* stream or iake. j shouid be brought to reaiixo that "Caution" shouid be the byword. Their surplus energy can best be put to use in learning to swim with good strong stroke and then teach ing their comrades the art in bath ing piaces where the water is not ton deep and where heip in emer gency is easiiy obtainable. Aii of this is trite—true enough— yet it constitutes a iesson that needs fieluent repetition in order that each summer may show a re duction in the number of fatai drowning accidents to chiidren.

Editoriat Comment Knowing America First (Tuhiic Fedger) The news from Japan gives fair assurance that the dipiomatic situa-j tion precipitated by Congress in en- acting Japanese exctusion and de manding abrogation of the "Gentie- man's Agreement" wiii be handted inteiiigentiy. To be sure. Viscount Kato. the new Premier, has shown none too friendiy a disposition toward the United States and before assuming office advocsMed "strong measures." But it is eAuaiiy certain that he cou!d not succeed in "uniting Asiatic! peopies" against America, as some! visionaries have urged, for he is' cordiaiiv hated in China as the For eign Minister w ho, in l!)lo. imposed the Twenty-one Fernanda" upon the hetpiess Peking Government.

Changing Turkey (New York Times) The process of modernization, or, as it is technicaiiy railed, "emanci pation." in the Ottoman Republic has not been entirely spontaneous. Caicuiated policy has entered into the abolition of the Caliphate and the rapid abandonment of social and religious taboos. One correspondent writes that three months ago it would have been impossible to see the thes dansante at the leading ho tels of Constantinople frequented by Turkish ladies, but today the wives and daughters of the best families are prominent on the public dancing floors. The trend is encouraged by the Government at Angora. With out formaiiy adopting the siogan of his late allies at Moscow that reii gion is the opiate of the people, Mustapha Kemat lias obviously pro ceeded on the theory that the se curity of the new political regime depends on as sharp a break as may be with the anrient proprieties. The ahoiilion of the Caliphate was obvi ousiy designed to remove a possibie nueiens for poiitieai reaction. Time wiil show-w hether Mus tapha Komal has the same experi ence in store for him as the Russian terriers who have been forced to soft-pedai their crusade against "superstitien." !n the Angora Na tional Assembly, which adjourned early this month for a liaif vear. the opponents of excessive moderniza tion have made themselves heard, though the rondiet has been largely on political issues. The proposal to make the term of President of the tepuhiic seven years and <o make the office open to any citizen eiigihle for Deputy was rejected. An artieie was voted into the new Constitution providing that the President shall he elected by the National Assemhly from among its own membership and shouid lioid office only for the life of the Assembly. This is intend ed to discourage the dissolution of the Parliament by a President anxi ous to go on his own. Despite Txem nl's great prestige there is obviousiv mueh more democracy in Turkey than in Soviet Russia. As against the outside worid the National Assembly stands with the President in maintaining the haugh ty tone that was so prominent at Lausanne. Regulation of Turkey's foreign debt was excluded from the I^ausanne Treaty, which provided that the question should be taken up nireetly by the Government with the bondholders.

Only seven of the nine Americans entered In the championship were able to go to the first tees Monday. Johnny Farrell and Clarkson both scratched. Smith was the only American to do exceptionally well, Gene Sara zen plnyed well and the others were only pretty good or pretty had. With a large gallery behind him Sarazen set oqt to atone for Ids failure to qualify last year, and turned in a rard of 76. which ranked among the first score of leaders over the Formhy course. Douglas Grant over the same links had an ordinary 81. CH Klcholls was the only* one of four Americans playing the Hoylake courro to succeed In breaking 80. He took a 79.

Chicago Prodace Market Chicago, June 24. AH deliveries of corn scored a brisk advance today to the highest prices yet this season. Too much rain inter fering with cuitivation was chiefiy re sponsibie. Corn and wheat both ciosed unsettled, corn at 1 to He net advance. Juiy 399. wheat to !c up. Juiy 1.144 to 1.149 and September 1.159 to 1.15!, with oats showing to 4c gain and pro visions varying from 5s decline to a rise of 12c. Unusuai strength became evident eariy in the corn market and with buy ing active and general the greater part of the gains proved to be of a lasting character, especiaiiy as country offer ings kept scarce and receipts meagre to an extreme degree. Persistent rain and coid weather emphasized reports that corn growth was very backward in a number of the big corn states. Ex cessive moisture was reported over Iowa, iiiinois and the Ohio vaiiey in particular, and northwest advices were said to indicate the poorest corn pros pect in years. Word of iow temperature In Canada and of heavy storms in the domestic harvest districts southwest had con siderate effect in raitying wheat from eariy weakness due to the fact that predictions of a butiish crop report at Winnipeg had faded to be borne out to the extent which had been looked for here. The late firmness of the wheat market here was also ascribed to an nouncement of 6.291.000 bushels de crease of the visible supply in North America and afloat. There was like wise talk of a broader export demand for wheat to be shipped by way of the Oulf of Mexico. Oats were responsive to reports that at various places in Iowa the oats crop was showing rust. Some foreign buying of !ard made the provision market firm, despite low er quotations on hogs.

Waish, of Montane, prosecutor of the oii In quiry and other# connected with the various investigations. "Decry them aa they wi!!. the American peopie know that it was these investigations—conducted by Democrats but through Repubiican committees—that sent. Aibert B. FaM to Three Rivers a disgraced man. It was these investigations that competed Edwin Denby'a re tirement from the cabinet. It was these investigations that drove Daugherty back to Washington Court House. It was these investi gations that caused conspirators against their government to take their own. iives rather than teii the truth. It was these investigations that pointed to the immoral orgy of Forbes end sickening scandals in the Veterans' Bureau. It was these in vestigations that put a Repubiican congressman behind bars and tashed Newberry from the Senate. It was these investigations that informed the American public that the first otheiai act of Calvin Codiidge was the appointment of a private secre tary Who had traded and trafficked in puhiic patronage. It was these investigations that ied a Repubiican Senate to convict its own Repubiican Nationai Committee for 'framing* a Democratic Senator because he dared to do the right." Comparing the investigations into Democratic and Renubiican admin istrations Senator Harrison said it was "not craft atone that offers in the two administrations such happy comparisons." "During these iittie more than three years." he said, "we have seen i the present administration tioat aiong. tossed bv every current, fan ned by every breeze, without pur pose. program or poiiey. Ipon a thousand issues they have hoisted the white hag of surrender." Senator Harrison declared that nothing in "buriesque or opera boufec" was compnrabie to the "scene recentiy enacted at Cieve iand in the efforts of- the Siient Sphinx of the Potomac to exiievand expatriate those Repubiican Sena tors who dared to oppose Itis man date." "They dared to vote an investiga tion of a number of the I'respt^it's oHiciai famiiy and they are penaiized for their decency." he said. "B^ every device known to trained camouiict.rs. by every subtie process of legerdemain the Repubiican nominee, in true pharisaica) fashion, sought to divorce htmseif from his former comrades in arms, llse pian is obvious: the piot is futiie ^Neitii er the President nor his h'aistnfiian army headed by Qenerai Butier nnd Sergeant Stearns ran eonceai the ugiy fact that the Cieveiand conven tion was the most highiy organized. noss-rmupn arm o!cnc!no!!a ever in America The American peopic will not he deceived; "Tiie Annricatt people will knew that they are dealing with a sys tem; that even thonKi'Hunta. Qtias anf! I'eurese are dead. their spirits go marehihg on in the personages of the Three Musketeers of present day Ucpnhiicanistn—Uutier. Stearns andSiotnp." Turning to a discussion of tho ^ieiion tax proposal. Senator Harri son nsserted that it was conceived in the interest of privilege. "What is this meion that Motion sought to rut"" he asked it woub: have given l.UOfl of the H.oSo.hsn in come tax payers in America -It per cent of the tola! reduction. The Temporary Chairman de eiared ttnder the ieadership of Sim nior.s in ihe Senate and Darner in <he House. the Democratic tax re duction proposal triumphed, "not he. cause we were numerical!;* strong, but because we were assured);* right." Comparing the foreign poiieies of the American goeornment ttnder President Wiison and the Harding Cooiidge administration^ Senator Harrison deetared that the Wiison poiicy was "definite, wise and brave; the other vasciilating. baiting and weak." "It is the difference." he said, "be tween a keynote and a keyhole poii. cy of statesmanship." Commending President Harding for his propnsnt that America adhere to the Wnrid Conrt Senator Harrison said that President Cooiidge had piedged himseif to carry out Mr. Harding's poiieies and that yet from the day he assumed ofhee he had made "only a how" in that direction. Senator Harrison declared that if returned to eontro! of the govern ment the Democratic party would have "neither peta nor puppets to protect or corrupt cabinet members to coddle." "We will rigidly enforce the law." he said, "whether the violator he a bloated trust magnate, a congres sional bribe taker, an embezzler of the public domain, or a disreputable bootlegger." "We will readjust tariff rates and reduce transportation charges. "We wiil iay bare campaign brib ery and punish eieetion frauds. "We wit! go to the relief of dis tressed agricuiture and adopt such poiieies and pass such iaws and re store permanentiy the purchasing power of the farmer's dollar, j "W6 will adopt a progressive re clamation policy. "We win pursue the same high course that has ever inspired the leaders of Democracy, unterrlfled by those who threatened to destroy, un moved hv those who seek selfishly to control.

The Augusta Cadet Band, num bering nbout 23 piayers headed the procession of Sir Knights, foiiowed by Trinity f'ommandery in two divis ions with their Hags and color guards between the first and second divis ions. There were about 130 members of Trinity Commandery in iine. They were foiiowed by the Bangor Band of about 33 pieces and by St. John's f'ommandery.

Swinging into column of threes as they crossed the Bridge they were reviewed at City Hail by Mayor Brnest 1.. Mcl.ean and con tinued to Witiiams held. Special Cars to Togus Here they found tight refresh ments waiting for them and the heat of the day made them very accept able. A picture of the entire gath ering seated upon the bleachers at the held was taken by Herman R. Mansur, after which they boarded special cars for the trip to Togus. where the remainder of the day was to be passed. Eleven special cars were necessary to convey the com manderies and the bands to Togus. The management of the Androscog gin Kennebec raiiroad handled the eieven cars on that line with great success and speed. From the time the first car left Cony High school untit the last one arrived at Togus was just 50 minutes. Superinten dent Bowie of the Augusta division gave this matter his personal care and as a result the trips both ways went off iike ciockwork. Arriving at Togus the commander ies formed in line as before and marched from the waiting room around the north band stand to the south one where they were reviewed by Governor Keith Ryan and his staff and by the board of governors which was In session at this branch of the home at that time. The par ade disbanded at barracks Xo. 7 where they changed to fatigue clothes. Splendid Arrangements The One manner in which the en tire affair was conducted can be apt !y iliustrated by the way in which the baggage was handled. Members of Trinity Commandery left their suit cases containing their fatigue ciothes and their sword cases at Ala sonic Temple. Sir Knight quarter masters of the visiting cotnniander ies reported the number of pieces of baggage for their commandery to Sir Pearie E. I'ulier. quartermaster of Trinity Commandery and he then took charge of the entire baggage for the five organizations. The baggage was taken to Togus by auto trucks where that for the different commanderies was piaced in certain rooms assigned to the in dividuai commanderies, in readiness for the men to change their fatigue clothes. In order to faciiitate the sorting of baggage the tags were numbered and the baggage was laid out according to number on the beds in the barracks which is now unoc cupied. 1000 Enjoy Shore Dinner After (hanging to fatigue clothes the matchers with wonderful appe tites and with their ranks sweiied hy those Sit* Knights who had been un3hie to paAicipate in the parade, gathered in the monster dining haii at the Home, where Mir W. r. Ter ry screed a hountifui shore dinner. This haii seats about 1000 pcopie and it was taxed to capacity by tne Sir Knights and their bands. The steamed ciants,* wonderful lobsters, potato chips and other good things which were on the menu were quick ly disposed of and as each man left the hall he was presented with an envelope containing cigars, so that nothing might be left undone for the comfort of the Sir Knights. Fieid Sports in Afternoon Among the features of the after noon were the sports which were held at the baseball grounds and the band concerts which took place at the north band stand. At the base hali grounds as at Williams field In the morning, and again at the bar I racks at the end of the parade, an enormous truck load of soft drinks, pientifully iced, was ready for ali who cared to drink. Both grand stands were weli filled when Prof Hilbert of this city presented a fine slack wire and trapeze act and an act featuring a trained dog. This exhibition was a good one and drew much applause.

At the conclusion of the iunch they repaired to their special cars and were transported to this city, arriving here about 7.15. Evening Vaudeville Entertainment The evening entertainment at the Ope.a House was started with a speciai line of pictures at 7:30. The Turner Brothers comedy tumbling act set the pace for the vaudeviiie show. The work of these clever ath letes was a top notcher in its line. Petite, alluring and beautiful is the dancer Chona Paula. Having ap peared in vaudeville in the largest theatres Chona Paula has perfected the act of entertaining. The exten sive repertoire includes a number ar ranged by the Russian master Adolph Rohm particularly for Miss Paula. The Sir Knights w ere warm in praise of this exceptional dancer. The Garden City Trio would be capable of furnihsing an entire even ing's program ao varih dare the num bers presented. Their work last night was mostiy comedy (undoubtedly at the request of the management) but the voices are of exceptional quality, well trained and classical numbers would be put across in an equally pleasing manner. For those who want the best in music a most satisfying entertain ment was the work of the young Italian girl Dorinna Capuccio. With her accordian this artist gave excel lent renderings of classical music. In lighter vein the Italian street songs made a strong appeal to the audience. One might ciose his eyes and while listening to the music of these clever girls picture the dark eyed peasant girl plucking luscious grapes from a hillside vineyard or the wandering minstrel in the court yard of an an cient villa. Miss Capuccio was the hit of the evening with the boys. When she played some popular num bers the singers in the crowd joined in the chorus. She was called back repeatedly and finally announced that she had heard several fine voices as they were singing and that she would play some numbers especially for them to sing. This she did and everyone joined in the rendition ot some of the old favorites. Oh. Boys! What a pair the Dwyer Sisters are.

LEMONAMES TO AM SALVATtON ARMY BYBENEFtT CONCERT Amongst those who most appreci ate the peace time efforts of the Sal vation Army are the veterans of the world war. who saw their war time humane service in the mud and muck just heck of the front fines in 1817-18. These former service men and wo men have indicated a willingness to give material expression to their en dorsement of the work of the local corps of the Salvation Army, and to this end the James Fitzgerald post, American Legion, has assumed the management of a concert to be given in city hall auditorium on the even ing of Thursday. June 26. as a bene fit for the Augusta S. A. organiza tion. The local legionnaires proposed and promuigated this concert program entirely on their own initiative and the total receipts will be turned over to Ensign Lawrence for the further ance of the work in the Augusta dis trict. The committee from the James Fitzgerald post having the de tniis in charge, have met with splen did co-operation on the part of city othcials. and it is understood that in recognition of the very worthy cause the legionnaires wiil have the use of city hail on Thursday evening with out paying the usual fee. The concert program will be pre sented by the Lawrence family of the Augusta corps of the Salvation Army and will he a program replete with musical numbers, both vocal and in strumental. readings and pantomime. It was announced last evening that Air. and Mrs. Kenneth F. Lee. the "Shooting Stars." have also volun teered their services on the program for tomorrow evening, and their ap pearance will be a revelation of a series of entirely new and novel feats ot skill with the ride and pistol. The members of the American Le gion and the auxiliary are support ing this benefit concert to the ut most. and it Is expected that the citi zens of the city will do their part in assuring its success by buying tick ets and attending the concert. The Lawrence family has gained an ex tensive reputation for being the larg est family band in the United States and their programs, which are varied j and of a particularly high class have won the plaudits of packed houses in the several places in this section of the state where they have had en gagements.

JnMdtf A Master Socia! Servant Twenty-five years ago three independent manufacturing concerns consolidated for the purpose of reducing the cost of the produc tion of shoe machines. They pooled their resources and equipment on the sound industrial principie that united effort would enable them to improve the quality of their service rendered without in creasing the cost to the shoe manufacturer. With their combined facilities and experience they set about the invention and perfection of machines that wouid lower the cost of shoe manufacturing and uitimately the cost of shoes to the consumer. That concern today is known as the United Shoe Machinery Corporation. And the item of machinery is the only item of manufacturing cost that is lower today than it was in 1899 when the ^United Shoe Machinery Corporation was first formed. Strengthened within by satisfied workers, held together by efficient manufacturing and seihng methods, strengthened from without by the combined ioyalty of uniformly treated and satisfied patrons, the United Shoe Ma chinery Corporation stands forth as a master social servant, officered by men who know that its fitness to survive and grow depends on one thing—its continued fitness to serve.
