Premier Craig of l ister is ill, but the Marquis of Lomlond rry and other members of the Ulster gov ernment "ill represent hint in the no got lotions. The die-hard section of Const rvn iives, whi it always has disapproved of the Irish treaty and which is strongly represented in the house of lords, un doubtedly will make slrong opposition to the proposed legislation, but as tlie t.ill is expected to tie supported solid ly by both the Labor and Liberal par ties and also by a considerable sen inn of the mod. rate elements of the Con servative party, the government can carry it over the heads of the dissen tients. Should the lords lie ruled by the fi lin' ..neilabhs and go t.» the b ugth of rejeeting tin bill, the only result would be complete disruption of tin Conservative party. Political experts believe that it is justifiable to doubt vvheth r the responsible leaders of that party, knowing the country generally supports ilie government on this ques tion, will take sueli a risk.

CONFEREES NEAR FULL AGREEMENT ON DAWES FLAN London. Auer. 1 (By A. IM—With tht' exception of one technical point, this relating to reparation transfers front Germany, the inter-allied con ference this afternoon reached com plete agreement on how the Dawes plan should he made operative. This one outstanding difficulty, it is said, will be cleared away tonight, and the allied plenipotentiaries have been summoned to meet in plenarj session at the British oreign office in Downing Street at 11.30 o'clock to morrow morning t pass judgment upon the committee's reports, which are to he embodied in a protocol lor signature hy the Germans. Tomorrow. Kaiu^ay McDonaUl, British premier, as chairman of the inter-allied conference, will extend an invitation to the Germans to come to London as soon as possible. The mission from Berlin, however, is not expected to arrive before Monday, for it is anticipated that Dr. tftresemann, the German foreign minister, w ill de lay its departure until he has had an opportunity to talk with c hara s B. Hughes, the American secretary of .-v state, who is to spend Sunday in the Uernran capital. The delegates believe Mr. Hughes will give the Germans advice about the attitude they should take when they appear at the conference table to discuss the methods the conference has adopted for inaugurating a new reparation era. The magic wand of arbitration, held in the hands of the French and waved over the conference table yes terdav and today has wrought non dors for inter-allied diplomacy. Dif ferences which last week threatened to break up the parleys have disap peared and even among the amed delegations, there are expressions of surprise that the task which for days seemed to be impossible has been ac complished. The American d. legates, official and unofficial observers, in cluding Owen D. Houng and James Bogan. Jr., tonight expressed the opinion that the conference results are sound economically ana financial ly and that the Dawes Plan will be put to work without loss of any or its effectiveness. LOEB AND LEGPOLD HAD THOUGHT OF KILLING THE OTHER Chicago, Aug. 1—(By A.

He had r.o criminalistic tendencies. •Dickie’ had these tendencies but would not have lunctioncd to this extent by himself.” The witness pictured the two youths as the victims of phantasies witli Loeb still under tlielr influence and sinking lower all tho time, but with Leopold battling them behind a seif imposed barrier of intelleotual ,it He a I l not I In the relationship as each had con sidered killing the other.

White, who qualified as an expert by recit ing his experience as head of tlie government hospital for the insane at Washington, and reciting his long ac tivities as a psychiatrists, lie was permitted to testify to the mentality of the student defendants after ti e court had definitely over-ruled objec tions by Robert K. Crowe, state's at torney. to the consideration of any such subject as u mitigation to the punishment. The decision was far-reaching In that it admitted alienists’ observa tions for that purpose for probably the first time in Illinois courts, it permitted the defense to show after a plea of guilty "mental disease short of legal insanity” as a circumstance to be considered in fixing the penalty or a crime. Dr. White was on the stand all day and was being cross-examined when adjournment ennic. Next on the de fense's list is Dr. William Healey, a Chicago expert. Kiri.wall, Scotland, Aug. 1 (I’.v A.

Khe had first seen the light In that cottage: .•-lie and her man had lived In it I w hen her own father and mother were dead; there she had borne her own children. All connected with j her had earned their living on the j land In the old-fashioned ways—as iibotcrs, gamekeepers. woodsmen. Now- there was only one man of her tahilly left- her Son Jim—and In stead of following the plow over the broad uplands behind the cottage, or assuming the keeper's velvet coat, I o', too. had been claimed by King t'l’ivl, and earned Ills money—-good money, as she knew—as check jwolghman at the colliery, i is she turned to glance within jibe cottage doorway Margaret heard ultin's step on the rock-strewn path l-way far beneath, and then Ids familiar whistle. She ran within jnlid opened the door of the oven a tow* Inches, and took a peep at something which was undergoing tonne process inside, and thereby eiTfered a savory odor to escape which reached the nostrils of Mr. James Britten twenty yards awny. ‘That smells good, mother!” he exclaimed a minute later, as he came bustling Into the cottage, and seizing Margaret by her ample waist hissed both her cheeks. You could smell that o\er at r*.Mattnersley: What Is It this time','" •ft's liver and bacon, with an onion (or flavor, and a gravy that you could stand a spoon in, my lad,” replied Margaret as she began to bustle about. "So get your clean- j ing dune anil fall to while it's hot.” “No second invitation needed, I mother," responded .lint. with ulucrlty. anil plunged Into the bail, place of the cottage, where he was presently making a great noise with soap and water, and from whence lie quickly emerged with shining face and damp hair. 'Tin sharper set than usual to night mother," he remarked, as he diew a chair to the table and looked approvingly at the smoking dish which Margaret set before him. “Then lay knife aboard, lad," counseled bis mother. Now that her Immediate duties were done she sat down in her easy-chalr by the hearth and watched her sun eat, a smile of placid enjoyment overspreading her broad, good-humored countenance. She was one of those old-fashioned women who delight in seeing their menfolk do full justice to their vic tuals. and who believe—and rightly —that a vigorous and hearty ap petite Is the surest sign of sound health. Margaret Uritten, In short, ■was happiest when she beheld Jim at the close of his day's labors proving himself a mighty trencher man, and it was her great pride to study his appetite and to tickle Ills palate. And he was worth It, she said to herseff as she sat watching hlin— fine, handsome lad of ftve-and twenty, straight as a willow wand, with clear gray eyes and direct look, and a head of thick brown hair which still curled as obstinately as when he was a baby in nrms. No better young man in ail that coun tryside, thought Margaret; nor one, other folk might have said, that was more modest, considering that lie ..was all that was left to a mother who had consequently done her best to spoil him. "Any news today, Jim?" asked Margaret, when the young man had taken off the final edge off his ap petite. "Aught happened?" "Well. 1 have heard some news, mother," replied Jim, thoughtfully regarding the Inroads which he had made on his suppenfisli, and then helping himself again. It’s little more than a rumor, but I believe there's a flit of truth In it. Sir Robert's thinking of starting a grand sort of club for the men.” "Some of them men'll get till they don't know w’hat alls ’em,” said Margaret, with a sniff. "Why can't they bide at home same as you do?” Jim laughed, and gnve her a wink, "Most of ’em haven't got as com fortable homes as 1 have, mother." he said. “A place like that would do a lot of good.” ”1 reckon that'll he one of Miss Pltillipa's ideas,” said Margaret. "She's always full of plans for do ing grand things for them colliers. Nobody did nought for farm laborers In my time.” "We live in different times, mother," said Jim. "Aye, marry, and see some dif ferent goings-on!" sighed Margaret. Site rose and poured fresh tea into her son's cup. "I saw that new manager today," she said, "I went down the lane to see how poor Sarah Dickinson was and lie came by, riding ltis horse, when 1 was standing ut their garden gate talking to Jane Dickinson. I don't wonder the men don't like him, Jitn—there's no doubt he's a hand some young fellow, but I never saw such eyes In nil my born days! He fair made me dither—tils eyes is that black and fierce.” "I don't know- how It Is that Mr. Quinton isn't liked.” said Jim thoughtfully. "And as to calling him a new manager, mother—why. lie's been "cere nearly two years! Time to prove him, that. I expect it's because he's very firm, and per haps a bit strict and severe." Well. I wouldn't like to get across with him." said Margaret. "Take care you don't, my lad.” "There's no fear of that, mother."

Then he lighted hie pipe, and after lounging about a little got some books and writing material out of a drawer and spread them on the table in preparation for an evening’s, study. For Mr. James Britten had ambition, and meant to rise in the world. On this occasion, however, he had only just opened a book when the latch of the door was lifted, and a girl’s clear, high-bred voice said: "May I come in, Mrs. Britten—are >ou there?” Before Jim could respond Margaret had. heard Miss Phillipa Manners ley’s voice and came bustling out of the back place with smiles all over her countenance. "Eh. bless your bonny face. Miss!” she cried. "The idea of seeing you ;.t this time of the day! But you was always up to some sort of no tions ever since you was a little girl." r Well, my notion this evening, Mrs. Britten, was that I must really have a good walk before din ner." said Phillipa, laughing, "so I made Ann Mary come round the tvob^ls with me. and we were so near you I felt that X must look in, Ann Mary, Jim,” she continued, giv ing the young checkweighman an arch look, "is homewhere outside— perhaps peeping through the window. Hadn’t you better go and see?” "Oh. Miss Phillipa. Miss Phillipa:” said Margaret, when Jim shot out of the cottage with remarkable alacrity,. "The idea of you encour aging young people in their love affairs.” "Well, why shouldn't X, Mrs. Brit ten?” asked Phillipa. "I'm sure it's a very delightful thing to see young people so much in love with each other as Jim and Ann Mary are. And I think Ann Mary deserves a treat—X Xiave made her walk so far. And I thought, Mrs. Britten, that while they have their little tall: out side you would perhaps treat me to a glass of that delicious cowslip wine that you gave me last time X was here—it won’t spoil my dinner, 1 can assure you:” “Eh, that it won't, Miss, nor a bit of my home-made seed-cake, nei ther:” exclaimed Margaret, bustling Into the next room. "No, I’ll war rant ’em both to do nobody harm.” Left to herself for the moment, Phillipa Mannersley's pretty face changed, as suddenly as a hillside bathed in sunshine changes when a sudden storm, a sudden sweeping of cloud and rain, blots out all tlie light and color. It was a pretty, vivacious, laughing face which had so unexpectedly presented itself In the little cottage; as Margaret's back was turned it became an anxious and troubled face. The violet eyes grew dark with a strange perplexity; tire warm, smil ing mouth became drawn and sad; the slender lingers interlaced them selves restlessly. And as if against their will the violet eyes lifted themselves to a photograph which hung on one side of the mantel piece—an expensively framed photo graph of a young man between whom and herself there w-as more than a likeness. She sat gazing at the fire with a troubled expression until she heard a jingle of glass anil china. As Margaret te-enteied with s tray the previous vivacity of voice and manner returned. A moment later she was laughing and chatting to the old woman as if she had not a care in the world. Meanwhile. Mr. James Britten, whose lady-love, a winsome maiden named Ann Mary Riley, Miss Man nersley's protege from childhood, and now her attached and faithful maid, had waited his coming at the garden gate, was being drawn by that young lady out of all possible earshot of the cottage. There was something mysterious in the way In which Ann Mary led him away. But at last she paused In the shadow of a hedgerow. "Jim." she whispered. “weren't you surprised to see Miss Phillipa tonight "I was a bit surprised,” Jim ad mitted. "She's come on purpose to see you.” she whispered. "X believe there's some trouble. I was to tell you that when she comes out you're to go a little way down the path with us. She wants to speak to you about, something. Jim; she's in awful trouble. She cried once or twice coming here, and I've only once seen her cry before, and that was when-” “Hush, hush, lass!" said Jim. “Let's go back and wait outside the door.” (Continued Monday) Poor Pay in Free Slate Complaint Irish Doctors Dublin. July 15—(A. P. by Mail) The Irish Medical Association at its annual meeting; passed a resolution expressing the hope that no change would be made in the system of ‘medical registration In the Free State which would Interfere with the right of medical men qualified in Ireland to practice in Great Hritain and its dominions. Dr. W._OSuIlivan, the president, said that since the establishment of their own government the Medical j Association w as not holding its own. Tiie dispensary doctors were treating over 2.000,000 people in the Free State under the Medical Charities Acts and received about JS0.000 for their public health work. No other country in the world, he said paid so little. In all the circumstances, be added, ‘It was not to l>e wondered at that the peo ple of the country were physically a third rate population when they should be an easy first. This condi tion. it was to he feared, would con tinue until they became ns degener ate physically as the pigmy races of Central Africa.” Florida Has 69-Year Old Liquor Law Tallahassee. Fla.. Aug. 1—(A. P. by Mail)—The far-sightedness of Flori da's legislators of the nineteenth century is disclosed in an old law unearthed ip the archives of the state eapitof here. It is an act which became effective in January, 1S55. and provided heavy penalties for em ployes of railroads found guilty of being intoxicated while in the per formance of their duty. At the time of its enactment there were no railroads In Florida. The act. however, imposed upon the general assembly the duty of ascertaining the proper objects of improvements in re lation to railroads, canals, and navi gable streams; and indicates the pre sentiment the lawmakers must have had that liquor and locomotive com bined would not make for public Safety.

Autos Crash on Watervilie Highway« Cars Are Damaged Three automobiles were in a mlx up on the state highway between Watervilie and Augusta yesterday af- tern non about 4.30, three miles; from this city and all of them: were considerably damaged. A Star car driven by K. It. Kills of Augusta was travelling toward Au gusta and a Reerless automobile, with a Massachusetts license, driven by Benjamin Rudnick of Somerville, Mass., number 48,278 came along to ward Watervilie and collided with the Star. The small auto swerved to ward the left and crashed into a Jewett automobile coining toward Watervilie anti driven by L. Quincy, of 88 Fulton street, Medford, Mass. State Highway policeman, S. M. Frost stated that from measurements that lie had taken lie should judge that the Peerless was over on the left side of the road farther than it should have been. The front end of the .Star was very j badly damaged, the radiator, lights, mudguards and axle showing the re- i suits of the collision. The left front mudgatird of the Peerless was crum pled and the left front and rear mud guards of the Jewett were badly bent. Number of Drunken Drivers on Highways Less Than in 1923 While more automobile drivers have been before the Municipal court in Watervilie this year than last year for the first three months of the sea son, May, June and July the number of drunken drivers has decreased lrotn 10 last season to four this sea son. Credit may he due Judge Charles W. Atcliley for this decline in drunk en driver cases for the judge was not particularly lenient In his sen tencing of such cases and generally doled out a combination sentence of a fine and term in jail. In the. fall a change was made and instead of giv ing sentences when he found the res pendents guilty the judge bound l hem over to the Superior court. The total number of automobile cases in court last year during the months of May. June and July was F! Ten were for drunken driving, two for reckless driving and one for driving without a license. This year for a like period there have been 16 cases, four for drunken driving, nine for reckless driving and two for exceeding the speed limit. There was one case In April for driv ing without a license. Most of the drunken drivers have been arrested within city limits while cases of speeding and reckless driving have nil come from outside highways. It lias been suggested that the fact that there are more motorcycle policemen and fewer In spectors in automobiles has made the difference in the number of reck less drivers appearing tn court. Whether the severe sentences handed out by the judge or that In toxicating liquor is Harder to pro cure might be n question debated by some, as the reason why the drunken drivers hail decreased.

Install New Lights On Gardiner Draw Bridge The Central Maine Power crew has been engaged the past several days In placing lights on the draw of the Oardiner-Handolpli bridge. This is done by the city of Gardiner In compliance with the law. it is thought that the bridge accident in which the draw-tender, Levi J. Mar shall. was killed was the reason for the enforcement of the law in this respect. Three lights have been placed on the top of the draw, show ing red wdien it is closed and green when It Is open. Ten lights have been placed on the piers supporting the bridge, all being regulation ma rine lanterns with electric bulbs in side. One wonders what the great necessity of such caution for after dark is, in view of the extremely light traffic through the draw. There arc but few boats pass through in the day time and hardly ever is there one at night, although a man is kept on duty.

It Ir equipped with radio, loud speaker, etc., and sermons by prom inent preachers are broadcasted to thousands at every city. Services from the church were held in Au gusta, Friday. On the return trip from Augusta the driver of the truck body on which the church is carried essayed to make Brunswick hill, but In some manner got stuck, and it was the combined efforts of the by-standers that finally got the church on wheels to the top.

Residents of the town of Ran dolph who have been worrying about automobiles speeding by their houses, have been advised to move out on Windsor street, preferable some little distance out.

It Is rocky for some distance and in no place is it in real good condition. A fine new cement sidewalk Is be ing laid in front of the Boston resi dence on Vine street, taking the place of the old concrete one, which was in rather bad condition.

Itnl., Vug. t —A *ym posium on what “Did the World gain by the world war?" is published today l*y the American Legion Weekly. The maority of the replies, many of them from famous Aemricuns, agree there were pains, though some deny any. The tirst person quoted, the former Kaiser's secretary. Admiral H. V on Rebcir-Paschwitz. said: •'What did the world pain? Noth ing! it lost everything.” "This answer." said the nrfiele. "was ill reply to n letter to William Hohenzollern in Holland. It is taken to represent very closely the io.nl views of the former emperor. The symposium was prepared to feature the tenth anniversary of the bepinninp of the world war. Krlederloh Wilhelm, former crown prime, says: “The result was that all nations are arming as hard ns they can. and wlint about democracy Just look at the cables from over the whole world. Dictatorship of some sort or other 1* the favorite idea. The only good the war did Is to slio wthat .a nation, not well armed, is powerless, and that such a nation pets no help from any body.” Newton D Baker says: “Taking the long view. I believe H Is possible now to say that the world is at last convinced that the balance of power theory is an unstable basis for world peace and that Internation al cooperation Is the only other plan to t>e tried. This is a great gain.” (general John J. Pershing said: “Willie we are probably too close to the events of the world war defi nitely to judge of 11s general bene fits to mankind, yet the victory did result in preventing domination by autocracy, with all its disastrous ef fects upon civilization, and the evi dence Is clear, that the free peoples of the world will unite in resisting such domination.” General Henry T Allen, command ing general of the American Army of Occupation, says: “The world has seen that the Im pious creeds that might makes right, nnd that the state ns the Incarnation of power stands above laws, have been overthrown. The world has learned much more of the later-de pendence of states. It has Minted that Kurope cannot proceed proper ly along the road of moral and physi cal restoration without our partici pation in the great unsettled post bellum measures." American Soldier No. 1,000.000. who served in the ranks throughout the war and Is now a staff sergeant, says: "Although we cannot claim that, as a result of the world war. Hie world has been made ‘safe for democracy,' it Is apparent that the American principle that 'governments derive ttieir Just powers from the consent of Hie governed’ has been tor the first time, impressed upon Kuropean minds." Kir Phillip Gibbs, British war cor respondent. says: “The only gain to humanity from the world war. as far as I can see now, was the inspiration that comes from the supreme valor of youth and its ready sacrifice for Ideals higher than self-interest." William Allen White, Kansas edi tor. says: “The gain came In self respect for the working men nnd the man of small means and his woman folks. And It. cut through nationalities without respect to allies or central powers. Til that milch democracy has gained and will never go back." Hilaire Belloc. English historian and student of military science: "The world gained by the great war a demonstration in practice that the atheist doctrine and tradition of which Prussia has been the In creasingly successful exponent for loO years would ultimately prove weaker than the culture of Christen dom.” Charles W. Kliot, president Emeritus of Harvard: “The World War destroyed the huge Bussian. German and Austrian autrocracies, x x x c ut into pieces, strengthened the three great powers in which Democratic principles have made good progress, arid brought tVmi nearer to effective union for promoting liberty, justice and peace throughout the world.'* Samuel Qompers, president of the American Federation of Labor: "The world gained as a result of the great war a freedom front the menace of organized militarist im perialism without which all people sooner or lali r would have been on chained in bondage and vassalage. Democracy is in the ascendancy, the dominant, form of government.” Jane Addamn says: "I. a revelation of what modern war Is when systematic propaganda arouse world wide hate and when the latest methods of industrial ef ficiency achieve the maximum or slaughter and destruction; Among the living a growing deter mination to abolish war for the sake of those who gave their lives to end John Maynard, English economist and author of “Economic f’onse qu^ncei of thfc Pearc'* ft&yf!? “I don't know/* Wall Street Briefs News that car loadings last week had been nearly twenty thousand larger than the previous week was reflected more particularly m shares of the northwestern railroads than in other transportation shares.

THE “DEFENSE DAY" MOTIVE "Since the United States Is so overwhelmingly against the League e,f Nations, there is nothing to do In the United Ktates, hut to prepare to fight. "1 am for art army and navy to protect this Government and Its peo ple and In favor of Its being pre pared so that we will not lose 100. doo lives after a war starts before -we e.'m get ready to defend our selves." This statement l>y Governor Ross of Wyoming contained In a letter to Frederick J. Libby, executive secre tary of the National Council for the Prevention of War, furnishes food for reflection considering the protests that are coming from pacifists over President Coolldge's plan for setting aside September 12 as National "Defense Day.” The need of preparedness for war Is an old story and lias been broadcast over the country with especial emphasis since the close of the World War. And yet when plana are made for a testing of the military machine of the nation, there are those who are ready to attribute to It militaristic pur poses. Certain newspapers nre attacking the "Defense Day" program, charg ing that the War Department Is apparently going beyond the bounds of a test and Inspection of the mili tary machine ns authorized ami supported by Congress, and that the War Department Is seeking to use the day for propaganda purposes In Influencing Congress In favor of a greater military establishment through the suggestion that Con gressmen be invited lo the local exercises.

It is too expensive to maintain with the present high cost of lumber and gravel walks are being substituted for it whenever a stretch of walk gets bgdly out of repair. At one time Bath had more miles of wooden sidewalk than any city in Maine. A tea set, more than 200 years old, is carefully cherished by Mrs. Hampton B. Merrill of Alfred, Me. The set is complete, having 12 of the usual group articles, with the larger pieces intact. It is blue white china, with willow blue stripe and blue polka dots all over the surface, and was evidently shaped by hand. It was originally the property of Mrs. Merrill's great great grandmother and has been handed down to the oldest girl of each generation on her wedding day. Many people will be interested to learn that the Prof. William K. Chap man estate, "The Shelburne," at Shelburne, N. H., has been sold to Dr. Frank II. Gorden of Bangor, owner of the Gorden Silver Fox ranches. Dr. Goiden has also bought the Chapman estate at Bethel, Me. Both places will be converted into prize fox ranches. There will be a grand opening at the Shelburne estate in about 30 days, w lien tlie foxes will be on exhibition The Gorden concern conducts 12 ranches, six being at Lincoln, Me. It was rumored on the street at Caribou this week that Martin Lawlis, the present sheriff of Aroostook County and who had pre viously held that office, would run ns an independent at the coming Btate election and that Governor I’ercival i\ Baxter had released him from his promise made last winter, when appointed, that he would not be a candidate this year. There were seven candidates for the Ho publican nomination for sheriff at the primary election, William J. Thibodeau of Houlton winning out. A second in the yearly toll of three lives demanded in the curse pronounced by an Indian chieftain many years ago was taken by the Saco Hiver Thursday, afternoon, when Raymond Bellivea’u, nine, son of John A. Belliveau of 2S Bt. Mary's Street Biddeford. was drowned while bathing with some other boys near the Somesville bridge. Tradition has it that once upon a time some of the early set tlers along the Saco ran into an Indian canoe upsetting it and causing the death by drowning of a child. Thereupon the chief pro nounced a curse upon the whites, saying that three white people should be drowned in the Saco every year. So far ns known at least that number of lives have been claimed by the river ever since. At Kittery Point, where the white pine blister rust has been present since about 1898, the currants and gooseberries which were the direct cause of the spread of the rust to the pine were removed in 1917. A study of this area made lately shows how successful these early protective measures were," says a federal report recently here. “Young white pines which have sprung up on this diseased area between 1917 and 1921. where all of these nurse plants were removed, have without exception been free from the blister rust. At the end of 1921, 242 young seedlings were counted per acre. This should be sufficient proof of the effectiveness of the control methods which have been worked THIS WOMAN BLESSESGODFOR THE DISCOVERY OF THE Famous Dr. Donnell I have taken one bottle of your INDIAN GALL STONE SOL VENT and I have already pasted three stones, it has done me so much good that I want two more bottles by parcel post.

"Come, sing us a soup." said the great big man. "The song of The Lost Little He.' At once the dear little Yellow Bird began to sing, about a little boy who longed to be a great big m3n. Always when roaming through the woods, he would call to the hears, begging them to teach him how to grow up strong. The great furry animals would come out of their dens and caves and. sitting up on their haunches, would answer: "Eat magic honey." "But where shall I find the magic honey?" the little boy inquired. "Oh, that you must find for your self." the hoars would answer. MU through thj> days, the little boy went searching for the Magic Honey. At last, one night, weary and hungry, he law down to sleep under a big spreading elm. As he slept a kind old mother bear whispered: 'Ask the Kins of all the boars Where he stores his honey wares.”

For instance, the Philadelphia Public Ledger recently published an account to the effect that one of the officers of a Philadelphia trust company had, at his summer home in the Poconn Mountains, distinctly heard MacMil lan broadcast a message hy voice. In truth and in fact, MacMillan has no voice transmitter and uses noth ing hut code in sending back his mes sages.

The engineers helieve that "giant power" would save 50,000,00(1 tons of eyal a year, lower the easts ot power production and put elee tricity on the farm, and inasmuch as they estimate that the area's de mand for power will increase by one-hall in the present dreado it seems likely that necessity will force us to something of the sort sofincr or later. At the same time a Western pro fessor is pointing out that the hopes of hvdro-eleitric development are exaggerated. He makes the un answerable observation that "there is a limited number of waterfalls," and calculates that our total potential supply of water power would not suffice in the course of the next twenti or thirty on is for our manufacturing requirements alone.

Gardiner, Maine German Pine Threatened By Caterpillar Hordes Bresleau, July 14 (A. P. by mall)— Thousands of acres of pine forests along the border lino between Ger many and Poland are in danger of being destroyed by countless millions of caterpillars of the pine tree lap pet-moth which have infested the districts tn greater numbers than has over been known, according to Ger man foresters who have appealed to the Berlin government for aid. Tar and various other so-called remedies have been tried but without success In efforts to exterminate the pest and officials have been considering ask ing the League of Nations for per mission to use airplanes and poison gas: In the forests where fresh tar has been put about the tree trunks the caterpillars merely overran the tar to such an extent that a covering of the dead caterpillars thus entrapped was quickly formed, over which their followers reached the tree branches and leaves which were soon devoured^ by the rapacious insects. Experts say the only hope of saving many of Germany's great pine forests would be by the use of poison gas, but they are not even certain that this would work successfully In putting an end to the plague. The officials, how ever, are eager,, to try this method as an experiment.' To a person walking through th* infected forests, either during the day cr night, the aound of yy caterpillar* 'eating the le*\es may be beard on all sides to such an extent that the trees appear to be alive, the sound reminding one of an unseen crackling tire when old leaves and young branches are being burned. The plague has spread to some of the forests near Berlin, according to re ports to the forestry department, a fid millions of marks of irreparable damage has already been done. France Crown Jewels Tossed About in War Taris. July 15—(A. P- by Mail) The Thiers pearls which sold recently for more thnn $600,000 were unable to find a taker for nothing during the axonising days of the tieintan march on Paris. When the French general staff asked the government to get out of Paris so the army would ha'e a free hand in the operations around the capital, tt was decided that the Bank of France would move to Bordeaux also. At die last minute someone I thought of the crown jewels in the Louvre museum. The director of the I museum bought a common leather satchel Into which he hastily stuffed the precious stones that formerlx 1 adorned the kings of France along I with the Thiers pearls, without even stopping to make a list of the gems. The satchel was handed over t Monsieur Palmier, under secretary to I state for Fine Arts, who carried it to j Bordeaux. As soon as he arrived in ihe temporary capital he t ied to get [rid of the trust. Monsieur Rioot, .Minister of Finances, refused to ac cept it: Monsieur Robineau. Governor of the Hank of France, also declined to take the deposit. After an un official council of ministers it was de cided that the Bank of France be asked to take charge of the jewels after inventory. Monsieur Robineau finally consented and three ministers set about to aid him make an inven tory in the chamber of a Bordeaux hotel. During the process the string that held the Thiers pearls together gave wav. creating consternation among the eminent officials present and •bringing them ail to their knees in a frantic hunt for the scattered gems Hours were spent in the hunt and when no more pearls were to he found 1 a certain amount of uneasiness still remained hecause no one in the ab sence of any inventory or record from the Louvre, knew- Just how many pearls there were in the string. Mon sieur Robineau receipted for 145 and evervbodv was relieved when word was'received from the Louvre that 145 was the correct number. Rain Drop Shape Studied Friedrichshaven. July 14 (A. P. by Main—What is the shape of a rain drop’ is a question which lately has been discussed at length hy German scientists. It isn't exactly round, and to this they all agree Raul .lavoy. chief engineer of the Zeppelin works here where the ZR--> is nearing completion fer its delivery flieht to Igjkehurst, X. J has taken moving pictures of rsir drops which b* says show that they are Cat cn top and on the bottom due to pressure of the air, while the sides are convex. In other words, according to Engi neer Javoy, falling rain drops as to form might be compared with an ap ple placed in a press and flattened on its top and bottom to about half its ordinary height. $12,000 Yearly Tensions Cosl War Ended 1815 Washington, Aug. 1—(By A. P.)— Thirty-three widows of soldiers who fought in the War of 1812 are still on the pension rolls of the government, although 109 years have elapsed since the close of that conflict in 1*15. Eight of the women pensioners died during the year ended June SO. There have been no names of soldiers of the war of 1812 on the pension books since 1905, when Hiram Cronk died In Ava. New York, at tbe age of IPS. Tiie oldest of the 33 widows re- ceived pensions which average JS0 a month, or about 112,000 a year, is Mahala Huff, Rural Route. No. 2, Louisa.

All told approximately 33.01)0 widows of veterans of the War of 1S12 were granted service pensions, the high water mark being reached in 1879 when there were 18.177 on the rolls. The records of the Pension Bureau also show that Daniel K. Bakeman, who died at Freedom. New York, in 1580 at the age of lft9. was the iaft soldier pensioner of Rev-iutiomV War, and Esther S.

Two dreadnaughts. six subma rines, five light cruisers, ten destroy- ers, ten torpedo boats of French j type and a number of repair ships i have been sighted, a greater number I of vessels than it was thought pos- j sible could he commissioned.

When you are slowing down to a point where high gear is not suitable and when you know that trafft will move again in a moment disengage the clutch and shift into second gear.

Don't try to get your “pick-up"’ in 'Ion,'’ tine* the gears are likely to "stick.'' This will necessitate slow ing down. Shift into "second" just as soon ns the car has hern set m motion. Step on the gas when you're In second’ if you want to get ahead of the io*f.

These men did not realize that they were taking a chan. ninst great odds because, like many mil lions of other drivers, they did not know that it is hazardous to act upon assumptions when at tit' wheel of a car. One is safely past the chance taking stage of driving only when one is willing to investi gate with a view toward being ab solutely sine before taking any definite step. Plain Sense, Not Law It Is customary to hear a super conscientious driver comment upon the careless act of some motorist with the statement that there ought to be a law against such foolhardi ness. it never occurs to such peo ple that, certain laws me not need ed because the public is assumed to have sense enough not to indulge in these particular acts anyway. There is no written law to pre vent motorists from backing down embankments provided they have permission to trespass upon the property. There Is no law to compel a motorist to get out of the way of a runaway motor truck. If a motorist has a mind to he ts priv ileged to stop his oar so suddenly and so carelessly on a wet pave ment ns to cause his car to skid a dozen ways and perhaps end in a crash. In short, there are no law? against many very dangerous things that motorists could do if they were so foolish as to try them. Common sense is believed to be a better guide than law In such in stanbes. three louring Tips The space left in the touring truck when the grips are taken into the hotel furnish a safe place lor the robes, road books and other miscellaneous paraphenalia when making a stopoff. Saves taking a lot of extra things Into the hotel with you and relieves your mind about them when the ear is on the street or In the garage. When retracing your steps over a dirt road watch out for inverted forks in the roads. These are the forks which you pass without not ing as you go along in the first direction. On your way back it is an easy matter to get ofT into the wrong road without realizing It. Always ask the rates for meals be fore sitting down to dinner at an unfamiliar road house or tea room. They can charge you what they please after you’ve put down a din ner. unless you have made an .agree ment beforehand. Cutting Shimmy Short Shimmy, or wabbling. of the front wheels does not usually last tor more than a few seconds at a time hut the length of the an noyance can be greatly shortened by pulling hard in one direction or the other. Shimming ts invariably due to "play,” or looseness, in the steer ing assembly, though there are other explanations in many in stances. Definite steering in one direction or another will serve to take up this play temporarily and thus bring the shimmy to a quicker end. Did You Know That newspaper makes the best protection for the celluloid lights of rain curtains when they are roll ed up? That a smoother start can be had with less possibility of stalling if the engine Is accelerated a moment before the clutch is engaged? The DOWN THE ROAD— By Beck j 11 F&B tfiNT THE WEAKER SEX momentum of the flywheel helps smooth the start. More Truth Than Gas You never can tell the size of a parking space by looking at it. Half of motorriom is smiling because it succeeds in passing everytl'.mg on tne road. I no other half smiles to think it has such good sense as to lei. the fool half pass. Tleso Compartments for the goif equipment are exccl'ent. Doubtless many a motorist wiil put a stick in them. Telegraph poles have stopped more speeders than the police. Once upon a time the motor ist's passengers found it a problem to hold on and keep in the car. Now a lot of them look at the plate nlacs and secure doors and wonder how they are going to get out. 1 Copyright 1924 by The Ullman Feature Service.)

They are easily assimilated. Physi cians recommend them strongly in their regimen for gastric and intestinal dyspepsia.

'it;?.i u STATE HOUSE HANDICAPPED CHILDREN OF MAINE 879 OBJECT OF INTERESTING CENSUS TAKEN I^i*t year the Commissioner of Ed ucation undertook to secure a cen sus of nil handicapped children In tha state between the a Res of 5 and end 21. The Importance of the cen sus ftnd methods of procedure were not fully understood by the census takers, and while n large number of cases were reported, tho census dhl not seem to bo complete, and espec ially In regard to the details of the nature of the handicap. This year u State-wide census was undertaken with more detail of Instruction. The census was more satisfactory as the following results will show: Number of children having Infan tile paralysis, 264: number having physical deformities. 167; number having defective vision, 104: num ber having defective hearing. 15; number who are deaf and dumb, 67; number having tuberculosis of lungs, 42; number having tuberculosis of the bone, 32; number having con gen ital trouble, "37; number having badly diseased adenoids, SO; number having been Injured by accident. 25: number having epileptic fits, 26; total 879. The purpose of taking this census was to determine the State's problem iti relieving the physical handicaps of those children. Through the cooper ation of the Maine Public Health Association. Chambers of Commerce, ltotnry and Kiwanis clubs, and other organizations, a series of ten clinics has been arranged for the purpose of trying to relieve the various handi caps to the fullest extent. The Maine Medical Association and physicians are generously giving their time to the work of correcting and are tre mendously interested in this work for humanity. Many of these children who will receive attention would oth erwise go through life seriously af flicted and retarded in their handi caps. In many instances very slight attention will correct the difficulty and a life handicap will be relieved. Five Applications In Jitney Service Ward B.

Van Buren Water Supply Improved The Public Utilities Commission has received a complaint from Dr. Elmer Campbell, director of the Division of Sanitary Engineering of. the State j Department of Health, against the Van Buren Water District alleging that bacteriological tests of water sup plied to the public by the district show bacterial results which do not come up to the United States Federal stand ards for the purity of drinking water. This is the standard which is adopted by the laboratory of the Maine Depart ment. Upon Investigation the Van Buren Water Co. made tho following commu nication: “After careful Investigation of the .above entitled matter, wo have come to tho conclusion not to take any chances by using the water in tlie condition that it is reported to be in by tile State Department of Health. We will therefore proceed to purchase and install the necessary apparatus for chlorinating the water. Would suggest that the proposed hearing in regard to the said, matter be called off.” The intended hearing was held open and upon receipt of the following com munication from Dr. Campbell, tho formal complaint was dismissed: “Please he advised that the Van Buren Water District hast complied with the recommendations of the Sani tary Engineering Division of the State Department of Health and in stalled methods for purifying the pub lic water supply, which are satisfac tory to this department. The last test on this ‘supply showed that the ap paratus is being operated efficiently and producing results which meet with our standards for the purity of water for public water supplies. In consideration of the above facts, we would recommend that action now pending against the Van Buren Water District be withdrawn." Leeds Fisherman Has To Pay $22.43 IT. E.

AMUSEMENTS '•The Age of Desire” Set* Higher Standard It has seldom been our good for tune to see a story so admirably adaptable for screen purposes as “The Age of Desire,” which we un derstand is from the pen of a chorus girl. Miss Dixie Willson. Aside from iu gripping theme, jt is replete with j action of such a highly dramatic na ture that the suspense is kept keyed up throughout. Mr. Borzage assembled such an impressive cast and one of such high talent that a reviewer finds it diffi cult to point out any member as contributing the most to the ensem ble. Myrtle Stedman, as the super ficial mother, is called upon to por tray an exceptionally difficult role, and she does so with a sure grip on her emotional capabilities. William Collier, Jr., the son of the famous comedian, proved that lie is a coming star in the cinema firmament, and Mary Philbin gave further promise of greater achievements in the fu ture. Lack of space prevents the merited tribute to other members of the cast, which includes Edith Yorke, Frederick Truesdell. Josef Swickard. Frankie Lee. Mary Jane Irving. J. Farrel MacDonald and Aggie Her ring. •‘The Age of Desire” is a picture that you cannot afford to miss. “The Bad Man” Proves Advance Of Cinema Art “The Bad Man.” an Edwin Carewe First National picture which opened at the Colonial Theatre yesterday, is as fine an example of the forward strides that are being made in motion pictures as could be wished. This principal reason for this Is that "The Bad Man” is a photoplay with a plot. Holbrook Blinn, star of the origi nal stage version, is the star also of the film play. Blinn is so accom plished an actor that comment on his ability would be out of place. Suf ficient it is to say that there Is no screen actor that can be called to mind at this moment who could give a finer interpretation of the role than Blinn. Charles A. Sellon, in the role of “Uncle Henry,” was also a mem ber of the original stage cast and the same praise goes for him too. Enid Bennett, whoso work with Douglas Fairbanks in “Robin Hood” will be remembered, plays the lead ing feminine role, Bhe is delight fully dramatic at times, yet whimsi cal and she lends her entire self to a very difficult role. Jack Mulhall is an adequate hero and Walter Mc Grail makes a very finished villain and Wall street broker all In one. The others in the cast whose work deserves special mention are Harry Myers, Teddy Sampson. Stanton Heck, Thomas Dolmar. Frank Ban ning and Peter Venzuella. “The Bad Man” furnishes a fine evening’s entertainment. The story is very obviously founded upon the operations of the late l’aneho Villa along the border, hut Porter Emer son Browne’s facile pen has drawn in all tlie characters with delightful satire which turns all the most seri ous moments into the humorous.
