NON-RESMENTS !N CONTROL 90 PER CENT. MAtNE SUMMER CAMPS Portland, Me.. Sray 24 —One of the greatest assets that Maine has for at tracting people of note within her bor ders is the inducements she has to cffer to the boys and giris of the coun try who each summer go into summer camps, parents in seiecting piaces places for their children naturaiiy iooic to heaithy, ciean, strength-buiiding io caiities, which tend to bring out the best in one mentally, physicaiiy and moraiiy. The State of Maine fuifiiis these de mands in every respect. Going under the assumption that what the parents choose for their chiidren wiil aiso be bcneticiai to the parents, it can read ily be seen that too much attention cannot be given to this phase of Maine's attractions and possibilities. It is interesting to note that last summer over 15,000 boys and Kiris from out of the State attended Maine catnps. it is also interesting to note that 90 per cent, of the boys' and girls' camps in ihc State are controlied by non-residents, which bears out the theory that others outside of the State often see us with other eyes and step in and malte profitable investments, where the residents fail to see oppor tunities that nature has put next door to them. This is not only true of camps but of many other profitable investments in the State for future development. Other states have found this to be also the case. The residents become so accustomed to their surroundings that they see nothing unusuai about them until someone from outside steps in. having the "outside" viewpoint and makes a paying investment next door to a resident who has taken in sur roundings and what they had to offer too much for granted. In connection with the possibilities of camp life in Maine for boys and girls, an interesting and instructive series of lectures has been conducted i by Bowdoin College the past year. This has been done in cooperation with the t State's development and publicity pro i gram under the leadership of Governor Brewster and the governor's council. A recent lecture was given at the college by H. i\*. Gibson, president of 'he National Camp Directors' Associa tion. his subject being camp ideals. Mr. Gibson pointed out that in these davs Institutionalized education leaves the bov during the summer months and that the summer time is the pe riod of the greatest morai deteriora tion for boys and giris. Mr. Gibson also pointed out that the first objective of an organized camp was that of health giving. This is wbv Maine is the idea! piaee for the bov and girl as governmental statis tics show that she is fast forging to the front as the heathicst state in the Union. The State's development program plans to place much emphasis upon the remarkable possibilities of develop ment along these lines both to interest an increasing army of visitors, young and old. and als oto afford apr oHtablc occupation for Maine coiiege boys in the summer time. Helium Gas May Be Used to Relieve Divers of the "Bends" Washington. May 23.—W—Hqlium. the non-explosive gas used as a substitute for hydrogen in navy dirigibies. is being tested out by the navy department and the bureau of mtnes as a possible means of reliev ing deep sea divers of the dangers of "caisson disease." Experiments thus far made with animals indi cate that pumping a mixture of oxygen and heiium to suhmerg<d divers as a substitute for air mav revolutionize undersea work due to the elimination of the nitrogen the air contains. Caisson disease, or the bends, the most prevalent and dangerous ailment of divers or men who work in a compressed air atmosphere known, results when a diver who has been working under great pres sure is too quickly brought to the surface and norma! pressures. Ni trogen in the air under normal pres sure enters tlie blood slowly. W hen pressure Is too quickly changed causes bubbles in the blood and the attacks are frequently fatal. Gain in Number of Mass.

It wlil safeguard thetr iegitimate interests and rights, he declared, provided they maintain the order and diseipiine reqnired by the ideals of Fascism, which continues to rule Italy "because it is my will."

Piisudski WiH Seek Presidency Of Poiish Republic Warsaw, Poland, May 23.— Marshal Piisudski. who a Httle mors than a week ago marched into Mar saw at the head of an artny and succeeded in overthrowing the gov ernment of President Wojoiechow ski. now is consolidating his power by effective changes in the officers' corps. Hignificant among these changes is the appointment of a new director of the officers' academy which distinguished itself in defend ing t)M! government when TiisudsU started his movement. Piisudski. who after much Persia sion deiinitely agreed to be a candi date for the presidency of the re pubiic when the national assembly meets for the ciection, has issued an appeal to his soldiers in truly Na poleonic styie. Addressing them: "Soldiers." he says. "I expect you tc give the first example of patriotism: to ca-asc all factional strife and unit! in love for your country, if yon cannot love- me you all at least will have to respect me." HAStTS PROVE POWERFUL FACFORS iN OUR LtVES By S. W. STRAUS, President American Soctety for Thrift. (1TTABIT is second nature," said Montaigne, white a great Englishman, Lord Wellington, went even further and said, "Habit is ten times nature." There ia an proverb to the effect that it ia "a thousand times easier to contract a new habit than to get rid of an ol^' one." S. W. STRAUS The philosophers of the ages have given us observations as to the power and influence of habits and no one, we beiieve. wiii doubt the expediency of cuitivating good hab its and shunning those that are bad. We ail can foliow the good advice of St. Augustine that "habits if not resisted soon become necessity." What has aii this to do with thrift? It has very much to do with it because those who set out to prac tice thrift have already won haif the battie against bad habits. There is no surer way of develop ing a system of life that is upbuild ing and progressive than by prac ticing thrift. If you are thrifty you are not wasting your time in idle ness nor your money In dissipation. T3)u are not doing things that are tearing down your health. On the contrary you are spending your money, your time and your energies along iines that will be to your best interests. The saving of one dollar In itself does not amount to so much. What really counts is the saving of one doliar regularly every month, every w eck or every day. It is the regu larity of the practice not the amount involved that is helpful. Learn to cultivate thrift, not fof the mere saving of money, hut as a habit that shall stabilize your e* tire system of living. _

Mtw Art in Radio Broadcasting Draws Upon Pricetess Treasnres in Storehouses of Literature, Music and the Stage ^%RPHEUS twanged his lyre! That portion of the world within hearing sat up suddenly, cheered till the welkin rang and called for more. Next day half the people of the countryside had placed orders for lyres with Orpheus, and a few days later they went twanging along the highways, exercising this newly discovered medium for giving vent to their emotions. then before that wondrous day, though, the ancients had learned the art of exercising their own imaginations and exciting those of their fellows by carving in stone tales of marvelous adventures and conquests. The fad for spinning yams through the medium of the written word had gained a t ntrmanent hold upon the races of man. And now the history of the Arts is repeating itseif through the latest vehicle for human entertainment and taitnre—the radio. Radio broadcast ing, babe in arms though it is. al ready is moving aiong the weii beat en paths that for generations have been followed by literature, music, the atage and, in comparatively re cent years, the motion picture. For radio has iearned to tell a story end aii the world ioves a story. But radio begins its career with an advantage over the other arts that have gone before, it has their vast eiperiences and their huge stores of accomptishments upon which to draw and it has before it a future which is certain to go far beyond our wildest dreams of today. The Urge of Romance The demand for romance and nar rative has had a tremendous efTect upon titerature. music and the stage, ta fact, it is in targe measure respon ^sibte for just what these arts are to day. We know that the Brat writ ings from which our tong tine of titerateurs devetoped were mere ef forts at simpte communication be tween man and man. We know how dhey began to incuicate into the races of man the power of imagina tion, the abiiity to exchange thoughts and experiences. We can trace their deveiopment through these jeariy stages and on down to the time when men began to enlighten and entertain their fetiows through the medium of writing. Then came narrative and romance and the titer ary trend was established. The deveiopment of the theatre has paraiieied that of titerature, of course, for the theatre was so ctose ty aitied w ith anti dependent upon I titerature that the way was cteariyj charted for it from the very begin ning. Even music has been more and more inUttenccd throughout its his tory by 'his human desire to exer cise the imagination. The first mu sic was just a rendition of notes that were pteasant to the ear. Later, mu sicians discovered that music coutd be made to present to the mind's eye a picture or an event and thus, music atso took up the trend toward aitegory, romance—story teiting. Some of our symphonies, many of our operas and even some of our tighter, presentday musical come dies testify to the powers of inter preting romance which music has devetoped. Movies Foltow the Trait I Perhaps the example of the mo tion picture is most striking to us 'because the motion picture id a prod net of the present generation. Most of ns can remember the very Srst "movies" and many of us can recall the crude simplicity of the earliest efforts at depicting life and action on the screen. We witnessed a brief Mtker of a railway train speeding ^somewhere, anywhere, and ware thrilled. The next scene reproduced before our eyes a fire engine careen stong behind a team of gailoping horses, or an uncertain view of a Wrest parade. And thus, for per half an hour or so we were treated to a "program" tn* assorted fd disconnected subjects. But they Mased and delighted us at the time. Shortly, however, it wa-s seen that Wotion pictures couid be made to haact dramatic, melodramatic and *°""c scenes In sequence and thua Present to us, in pantomime, stories both new and old. All of us know followed. All of ns have "**iched the motion picture rapidly r"*den its field and make for Itself larger place in the affectfons of People. We have seen the Wovie create new productions of its and draw material from all of erature and the stage that has before, that we may have old nee new. ancient plays and oem. historic incidents and fanci reproduced before our eyes. Mo on pictures, too, had to learn to a story. Radio is so young that even now e Miracle of the thing is still fresh °"r minds. But progress in this its^]'^ radio has learned esson with considerable less lost than any of its predecessors litht **e!d education and en Aiready radio is being e the medium for a new art of "c? telling industry Takes a Hand enough, it has been in in th^ accomplished most huh "f radio broadcasting, hti.ii! h** Rone seriously into the ess of developing radio broad casting as,a medium for entertain ment and education. It is from com mercial broadcasting that there has sprung the beginning of a new art which in future years may ptace radio broadcasting upon the same high piane as iiterature and the stage. And yet it isn't as strange as it may seem at Hrst thought. Let's get back a moment to the subject of the development of onr present-day literature—for we must keep very cieariy in mind the fact that radio broadcasting has much in common with and mnst paraiiei in a broad, genera! sort of way. the iiterarv trend. Someone a few years ago made the profound observation that the true American iiterature is ihe short story. That being true, the magazine and the newspaper are the most important media of our typical American iiterature. We must ad mit, then, that industry, big business —cai! it what you will—has created the vehicies for the development of onr present American iiterature. Some of the magazine and newspa per publishing concerns are among the most gigantic of American in dustrial enterprises. Aiso, they are supported by a vast advertising rev enue that comes from thousands of other huge industria! organizations. Big business saw in the newspaper and the magazine the media for ex panding and making more profitabie its own enterprises. Big business realized that what has come to pass was certain to come to pass— which is that everyday readers of magazines and tfewspapers. though they may be interested chiefiy in whatever of literary eniightenment

bigger and better in the fieid of radio broadcasting is the new "continuity" radio program, which seems to be the iatest departure in broadcasting, it is a sort of cousin to both the movie scenario and the musical score of opera or any other stage production with a more or iess con tinuous background of music, it is this radio continuity effort that pre sages the first reai turning point in the ascendancy of radio as an art. it marks the beginning of a new epoch in broadcasting. An incident !n the writing of the famous "Gaiapagos Program." "Red" Christian, hero of this true story of the sea that is stranger than fiction, is shown at the right, describing a dramatic scene to Paui F. Stacy, program director of the ''Eveready Group." and entertainment these publica tions may hold tor them, are certain to be informed and interested through the advertising sections. Big business has been interested in and contributed tremendously to the de velopment of newspapers and maga zines. Big Business and Art Much the same thing has hap pened in the radio held. Industry has recognized the coming of an en tirely new medium of amusement and education, has seen that in prin cipie it has much in common with literature and has foreseen that it can also be a medium for creating additional good will to industry. And industry has decided that it must contribute generously toward mak ing radio broadcasting as enlighten ing and as entertaining as possible, if radio is to help convey also the story of industry. And so, almost from the first, the interesting things that'have come to the public through broadcasting have been contributed by industry and big business. The greatest musi cal artists in the world and the best informed and most forceful lecturers and speakers have been engaged by industrial and manufacturing con cerns to entertain and enlighten the radio audiences of America. The miracle of the radio has been brought home to the people by big business. And constantly these cap tains of industry have been striving to improve the types of public enter tainment afforded by the radio. They have labored to make broadcasting a work of art and a source of cul ture. just as these other vehicles of communication, literature, the stage and the movie have been crowned with artistic triumph. One of the most striking exam ples of this striving for something Before the first of these continuity programs made its appearance there were sporadic attempts at reproduc ing successfui piays by radio. The success of these efforts varied, but noue of them were particularly out standing. It was In November, 1924, that the public had its first real taste of the new art of radio continuity. The Na tional Carbon Company, one of the pioneers in the held of commercial broadcasting, had been putting on for more than a year a weekly radio program known as the "Eveready Hour." It had gathered a group of artists and had perfected a directing staff to write and seiect music for the programs and supervise their ex ecution through Station WEAF, at New York, and a network of aiiied stations throughout the East and Middle West. This "Eveready Group" had thoroughly explored the broadcasting field and had presented practically every type of program then known. But it was in the throes of a malady which comes to every new venture. It had "growing pains." It had repeatedly felt the urge to attempt something on a little higher plane, something that would live as a work of art, that would make his tory in radio broadcasting. The First Effort On the evening of November 20, 1924, the eve of the sixth anniver sary of the armistice which ended hostiiities of the Worid War, radio listeners aii over the country real ized suddenly that something new was coming over the air. The Eveready Hour" was immortaiizing in tyords and music the most gigan tic human conflict of aii time. Of necessity it was a bit sketchy It consumed only an hour's time. But it toid by word picture, by dialogue and by carefully selected music, the deep, uaderiying story of tha World War from a typ ical American viewpoint It was a thing that will live through all the an nals of radio, though an other generation of ra dio enthusiasts may not view it as essentially a technical masterpiece. The "Eveready Group" did more bits of narrative, romance and his tory in the months that followed and today the entire radio world is fa miliar with such productions as the; "Galapagos Progress," "The Golden Wedding," the radio prod"ction of "Evangeline," "Shanghaied," the radio story of "Lincoln." "A College Might," "The Old Showman." "The Ages of Man," the radio story of "Peer Gynt," "Rime of the Ancient Mariner." "Spring Symphony" and half a dozen others. They are the early landmarks along the trail of radio broadcasting accomplishment. The radio production of "Evan geiine" is a striking exampie of the creation of a new art through the use of products of the older arts. Longfellow's famous poem already fr that have been followed out and that have produced t wo slightly different types of radio story. The first of these methods has to do with the type in which the read ing or the diaiogne telts the story and the music is empioyed as a back ground or setting which aids the imagination of the iistener. The story, here, would stili be intelligible without the music, but the music adds just the same touch of rcaiism as the set stage scene in a play. It tills in the spaces where the Imagi nation of the listener might other wise lag and fail. Such a method was periences of the crew of the ill-fated Norwegian bark Alexander, their helpless drifting for weeks in a calm on the Pacific, their abandonment of the ship when water and provisions were gone and their tight against starvation and madness on one of I the uninhabited islands of the Gala pagos group off the coast of South America. The radio story was adapted from the true story as told to the program director by a survivor of the experi ence, Martin Christiansen, a former Danish seaman and now a New York taxicab driver. In the preparation, audience heard Chris tiansen relating in a diaiect that smacked of* the sea, this re markable story; heard the chanteys, the friendly ribaldry of heated arguments and despairing utter ances of members of the crew as the taie nnfoided; pictured the heave and roll of the ship as it ploughed through the seas; saw. the vessel be calmed; looked upon the half-naked, starving and savagely desperate sea men as they lauded on the deserted isle: lived with them as they strug gled to keep body and sou! together with only the blood of sea turtles for drink and raw turtle flesh for food; experienced the wild, half crazed joy of the castaways as they were rescued from this fate that was al most worse than death itself. And it was ali conveyed to the audience by surprisingly few words and bits of vocai and instrumental music! The radio listeners, of course, couldn't actualiy see anv il "Ready? Let's go!" The "Eveready Group" is here shown tn the studio at WEAF at the opening of the radio presentation oM'Evan geiine." in the center, standing, are Betsy Ayres and Rose Bryant.

At the extreme right, Max Jacobs, orchestra director, has just poised his baton for the opening signai. had been presented as, a piay and later as a motion picture. One of the most interesting things about the continuity or story prog ress is the manner in which they are prepared for broadcasting. Generai !y speaking, there are two methods employed in the preparation of the "Oaiapagos Program," which critics have proclaimed one of the best pro ductions of its sort, in a technical sense. The Galapagos Story The story tells the harrowing ex the program director wrote Chris tiansen's story so that it couid be presented within the time timita ot the program, wove into it bits of reaiistic dialogue and constructed a background of music. When the production went on the air, the radio 'thing—but they had lived through the fearful experience of the crew of the old bark Alexander The Value of Music The other method of producing a realistic radio story is that in which the musical program itself carries the burden of the theme and tfh spoken word is used simpiy to con nect and smooth out the episodes. We aH have become accustomed to associating certain songs, certain musicai selections, with definite pe riods in our iives or in history. These associations are about the same with most of us. Thus, the continuity write^m take the songs, waltzes and marches of a partyutar period and weave a story of his own making into them. This method was used in the preparation of the "Oid Showman," which was also present ed by the "Eveready Group." The story told in this program was that of a reunion of two oid bachelors who had been "Srst-nighters" for two decades or more in Xew York; the story of an evening of reminisc ing over old stage celebrities and deathless oid stage songs. It liter acy took many of its listeners back to the music halis and the theaters of a generation ago and revived for them warm old friendships and pleasant memories. Of course, the success of both types of program depend upon the judgment of the writers and the mu sical directors in determining what can and cannot he portrayed through the microphone, and aiso upon the skiil of the artists selected to pre sent the story. The artists must not only be able to sing and play, but they must have considerable knowl edge of dramatics. The entire pres entation must go on the air so that the average listener Wii! understand dearly without actuaily seeing any thing Voices, words, music and oc casionally such mechanical appli ances as "wind machines" and "thunder sheets," must perform (t more faithful portrayal in the radio continuity program than they were ever called upon to perform upon the legitimate stage. And some times dead silence, a pause, must convey the most'important part of me story. Bnt, then, difficult as this may seem at first thought, it is in reality something for which the human mind has been preparing for genera tions. AH our ages of literature and art hare developed our imaginative senses to a remarkable degree. We have had to exercise the imagination more and more as civilization has advanced. The very progress of the rac^ has demanded it. And thi* new trend in radio broadcasting, this depicting of iife and adventure through the microphone ia a natural, logic?) trend. In radio circles the continuity type of program is known as the "fore ground" program, while the straight program made up of various instru mental, vocai or orchestral numbers, with only station announcers nam ing each selection and artist as theys appear, is known as the "back ground" program One demands your undivided attention while it is in progress just as you give it in a theater where a visual story is being unfolded; the other may be a part of a dinner program or the iighter moments of an after-dinner discus sion. Doubtless there wi!! always he "background programs, just as there will always be vaudeville shows and movie news reels. But critics are predicting that the great trend in radio wiii foilow the "foreground" type. Ten years hence the night air wiil be full of tales of love and ad venture and intrigue, told to the strains of interpretive music. With in a few years, perhaps, we may i abie to see by radio and millions of fans wiii then sit quietly at home and both see and hear plays Us they are enacted in elaborate broadcast ing stage studios.

Despair makes a despicable figure and is descended from a mean origi nal It is the offspring cf fear, lazi ness and impatience. It argues a de fect of spirit and resoiution, and of tentimes of honesty too. After ait, the exercise of this passion is so troubiesome that nothing but dint of ^evidence and demonstration shouid force it upon us. I wouid not despair uniess I knew the irrevocabie decree was passed, saw my misfortune recoerded in the book of fate, and signed and seated by necessity.— Jeremy Coiiier. _ PERCENTAGE OF CARELESS MOTORiSTS The Governor of Massachusetts hectares it his opinion that "the re sponsibility for accident to a pedes trian in the streets caused by motor vehicles rests primarily and almost si ways on the individual operator. Xow. so much of that responsibil ity does rest on the driver of the rar that there seems to be no need for exaggeration, in which the Gov ernor appears to have somewhat .n tiulged. Exaggeration is such a temptation when one is trying to emphasize a point that most of us yield to it. Instances have not been lacking where unless the driver had been a ciairvoyant and able to see a child v here there seemed to be no occasion to iook for one, able to read the childish impulse, accidents could htardly have been avoided. These, however, ate rare. The genera! and important fact remains that it is the <1 liver's responsibility to take the ut ^uos^ precaution. A test made by the Pennsylvania Itailroad Company respecting 100,000 t chicles that crossed the tracks of that road led to the conclusion that !ths accidents at grade crossings are due to the carelessness of about three per cent of the motorists, which is in effect a commendation of the intetli gtnee of the other 97 per cent. But w hat a lot of mischief three per cent may do. At least we should insis with regard to careless motorists t! at they should not exceed one half of one per cent. PRIMARiES AND CONVENTiON A reader, whose letter may be found !n the "Letter Box," questions our conclusions respecting the results of Hie primary election in Pennsylvania. He asks whether it would not have been possible for Governor Pinchot ito have gone to a convention with enough Relegates to hold a balance inf power; also whether IV. J. Bryan didn't defeat Champ Clark, who had a majority of the votes in the Bal timore convention. In a sense, though not fully per haps. his second question contains nn answer to his first. Conventions have a way of "ironing out" candida cies better than may be done at a primary and usually with less ex pense to the candidates. It is pos sible. at least has been, for an ex cellent candidate without wealth to receive the approval of a convention. Certainly no candidate without am ple funds back of him stood any chance in the Pennsylvania prima ries. Some, of course, seriously object to the ironing out process of the con ventions. That this was altogether admirable would be an absurd con clusion, yet we do believe the chances tof Mr. Vare before a Pennsylvania Republican convention would have been slim, indeed. He immediately attributed his victory to a desire on ithe part of Pennsylvania Republicans for light wine and beer, notwith standing those same Republicans nominated in the primary a dry can didate for Governor. We are unable at this distance to speak of Mr. Yare's fitness for the cfUce of Senator from anything save hearsay, from reading the comments of the press. These, however, ap pear to agree that he ie below the stature that has characterized Penn sylvania's senators in the past. We conclude that he is far less able to render as distinguished service in the ^councils of the Nation than were the Camerons, Quay or Penrose. But all this is not by any means *11 that might be said in criticism of tl.e primary, which unquestionabiy gives the rich opportunity, taking it ir<- t these who cannot command wealth; takes representation from the rural districts and gives it to the populous cities, and incites no end of demagogy. It has not accomplish ed much of what its friends expected, so far as we can see. The choice of a Chinese os the !heafl of one of the largest mission eoHeges in that country in piece of the American, who has been the president, ieads some to conclude that the Occident having equipped the Orient with facilities for eniight onment it is time for the latter to ktake charge of them. WeH? The new seven miiiion-doliar hotei at Palm Beach has voiuntartiy been placed in receivership, but Paim Beach remains as attractive as AYKL,- DESERVED PROMOTION Deserved promotion makes strong appeal to most of us; we hope it always will. By such means Harold S. Boardman has come to the posi tion, of president of the University of Maine, with the affairs of which he has been associated for the great er part of the period since his ma triculation at that Institution In 1891. During the past few years his ad ministrative ability shown as dean of the College of Technology and as acting president since the resigna tion of President Little has been tested and not found wanting. He comes to the position by the unanimous vote of the trustees, not withstanding It was one which was sought by several eminent educators. He Is equipped with thorough ac quaintance with the needs of the In stitution, also with the affairs and the people of the State. These are very valuable qualifications. They beget confidence that President Boardman will be able to administer the affairs of the University of Maine In a manner best adapted to the needs. TAKE YOUR CHOICE Justice Bassett, In Imposing sen tence on two drunken automobile drivers, gave expression to a con viction, which should be and we believe Is quite generally held, when<i he declared; "Rum and gasoline do not mix. An automobile driver must choose one or the other.'' The sentence he Imposed should materially aid those looking on in making choice for themselves. It being t300 and six months in jail Railroad managements, responsible for the running of trains.—not on the open highways amid the con fusions of heavy traffic but upon rails over their own right of way— do not hesitate virtually to take from a drunken engineer his means of livelihood, his Job and his reputa tion- Can we safely do less in the case of the drunken motorist? A GRIEVOUS MISTAKE Of ]ate tt has seemed as though the machinery of !aw had surrounded those accused of crime with every protection, even that needed for the public. There appear, however, to be occasional exceptions. One of these exceptions is the case of Raffaello Moreiio of Newark. He had served eight years of a life sen tence to prison when it was discov ered that through the mistake of "e interpreter Moreiio confessed to the murder of his wife, who it later was found shot herself when her husband was drafted for the war. Moreiio was so shocked by tills that he tried to kill himself, but didn't succeed. On top pf that he has served eight years in prison. Such exceptions to the rule are not agreeable to contempla tion.

It is stated that more than "0 per cent of the adults In civilized coun tries suffer from one or more defects of vision- The statement emanates from the producers bf electric light ing and the remedy proposed is more electric lighting. Houdini has been showing the oc cupants of the White House how to extract a live rabbit from a hat. Now the Democratic leaders will wish to have him show them how a victory may be extracted from the political situation. Effective restriction of the sale of machine guns as well as of pistols seems to be needed

I Editor's Letter Box 4*"* p Think* 0!d Convention* Wor*e May 21. 1926 Editor of the Kennebec Journal: I notice that in an editorial en titied "The Resuit in Pennsylvania" you seem rather inclined to blame the primary system for Senator Pep per's defeat. You say that under the primary system a man with money can defeat the people's will, etc. Could not Governor Pinchot have gone to a convention with enough deiegates to hold the balance of pow er and elected or defeated any can didate? Didn't W- J. Bryan Afeat Champ Clark at the Baltimore Convention even when Clark had a majority of the votes, and nominate Woodrow Wilson? Would you say that this man Vare is any worse than the Cam erons. Mathew Stanley Quay, or Boise Penrose, all of them products Of the old convention system who by controlling the conventions of both political parties named their candidates and kept a strangle hold on the officers of the state? It looks to me as though the wet Philadelphia machine of which Mr. Vare is the leader saw that the Pittsburg machine of which Mr. Mellon was the leader had been weakened by Governor Pincbot's assaults and wolf-like proceeded to destroy this weakened member of the pack. Of course we all regret that Senator Pepper should have been defeated by Congressman Vare. But I don't expect to see any more booze In Philadelphia or beer in Pittsburg than there was before Edward H. Emery.

"To look for an adventure," an swered the littie bunny. "So many things happen when one is out to learn something." "Be careful lest Danny Fox sur prise you." warned his careful little mother. "It takes all a bunny's wits to avoid that crafty old robber. Look before you leap; A careful watchout keep. 'Don't be too Inquisitive,.— Cautious you must be to live." "I know it, Mother dearest," an swered her little rabbit, and kissing her on each cheek, where a red rose bloomed so sweet, he hopped down the winding path through the bushes out to the Sunny meadow. Then up the Old Cow Bath cliperty clip, lipperty lip. his knaphack bouncing up and down on his back and his red-striped candy cane swinging from his left paw, hurried the little bunny until by and by, after a white and a hop pitty mile he met Mrs. Bee on her w ay to gather honey and polien among the {lowers. "Hello." cried the little rabbit, hoping that Mrs. Bee would stop to talk, and maybe to teach him some thing interesting. "Is the {lower juice as sweet as the pollen?" "Both will be honey by and by," an swered Mrs. Bee. "1 must work hard to feed the little wee babies." "What!" exclaimed the amazed lit tle rabbit. "I mean just what I say," answered Mrs. Bee. "Ail we bee sisters take care of our eggs and babies. Pome of us gather food, others build the cells or cradles, and still others care for and feed the bee babies." "Dearest me, I never knew that." exclaimed the astonished little bunny. "1 thought you were just honey mak ers." "Xo. indeed." went on Mrs. Bee. de lighted that the little rabbit wah so keen for knowledge, "no indeedy. We older sisters must care tor our younger ones who have no wings; also we must take care of the bee eggs til! they hatch into iittie white worms, and then feed and care for these iittte worms untii they grow Into bees. In our beehive there*are thousands of baby bees to be fed very often. We older sisters, besides taking care of them, must buiid cradies for them whtie growing into bees with legs and wings. Goodness me, I oniy hope we do not have a very warm summer." "Why?" asked the curious iittie bunny. "Because, in that event, some of us must stand and make our wings go fast to fan fresh air through the hive so that the nurses and babies wit! not stifle or the wax cradles meit." "floodness me, 1 never heard of such a thing! exciaimed the amazed iittie rabbit. "Won't Mother be inter ested to hear that?" "I've been out polten gathering ever since eariy before breakfast," went on MTS. Bee. "But our lazy brothers, whom we caii drones, eat and sieep aii through the summer. They do not help at aii in the work of the hive. But when the coid weather conies we drive them out of the hive." and in the next story you shaii hear what happened after that.

Col by tnterschoiastic track and Held meet here today by scoring 16 points. Ed ward Little high school of Auburn was tied with Cony high of Augusta for second piace with the remainder of the schoois trailing In the .mint summary. Te feature of the meet was the run ning of Jordan of Brewer high srhoo) in the miie which he negotiated in 4:36 4-5, a new record. This is the fastest miie to be run in Maine for a iong time by a schoolboy and is pos sibiy the fastest interschoiastic mile record in the state. Jordan ran wei! in the pack for the first haif staying within striking distance of the first man. At the end of the half lie went out with a britliant burst of speed and running easily increased his iead until he hit t he tape with TO yards to spare over Footer of Waterville who al o ran a remarkable race to defeat the remainder of the Held by a decis ive margin. Anderson of Gardiner came like a shot in the flnai strides of the hundred to win on his fighting finish with Thibodeau of Jordan inches behind. Miiier of Brewer was the second man of that team to lower a mark and his victory in the haif was earned by a drive up the back stretch which gave him an advantage which the others could not o' ercome. His time for the distance was 2:04 4-5 which is 3-5 of a second under the former mark. Merrow of Thornton did exceiient work in the pole vault when he slid over at 10 feet, 9 in., for a new record. Bango. won the relay race by a good margin when Cowan running first opened up a lead which was in creased during the race to a safe margin. Portland high was second with Morse, which finished third, eight yards behind. Morse was dis qualified for a technical foul in pass ing the baton and Edward Little took the third place. Records were established in four events. Ridlon ran the 120 yard low hurdles in 14 seconds and owes his record to Jones of Portland w' o pushed him the entire distance. Miiier and Jordan of Brewer made new marks in the half and mile respect ively, the latter cutting seven seconds from the former record. The other new mark was made when Merrow of Thornton vaulted 10 feet, 9 inches in tiie poie vauit. nummary:, One hundred-yard dash—Anderson, Gardiner, first; Thibodeau, Jordan, second: Turner, Bangor, third.

Now that the college crew season is under way, a glance at three of the coaches who show the boys how to pull the oars won't be out of place. The famous Childs Cup wit! be rowed for at Princeton next Saturday, with the crews of "Young Dick" Gtendon, of Columbia; Fred Spuhn, of Pennsylvania; and "Chuck" Logg, of Old Nassau, matching blades, and at the same time, at Cambridge, Ed Stevens' Harvard eight battles with Bob Butler's Navy crew, Leuder's Cornell crew, and the oars men of Massachusetts institute of Technology, who are coached by Bit! Haines. Probably the most important of the many shifts in coaching regimes that have taken place since tast year's Poughkeepsie regatta was the coming of the Glendons. Richard Senior and Junior, to Columbia frcm the Naval Academy at Annapolis, where they had enjoyed so much suc cess. The Glendons are one of the most famous of the many Father and Son combinations in sports, comparing favorably with the Schaefers in billiards, the Fitzsimmonses in boxing, the Weferses in sprinting, the Walthours in bike racing, the McGillicuddys in baseball, and the Donog hues in horse racing. Young Oick Glendon's Navy crew won the big race on the Hudson last June and now he is coaching at the university whose crew finished in last place in the same race. Glendon the younger was a famous all-around athlete in Massachusetts. His father put him through an extensive course in training in rowing, and now takes a back seat in the coaching at Col umbia. Coach Fred Spuhn is one of the many Washington oarsmen now hold ing down jobs at Eastern universities. At Penn he is assisted by Max Luft, captain of last year's Washington crew that finished a close second I to the Navy at Poughkeepsie. Spuhn has a tough job. stepping into the shoes vacated by oJe Wright and Jim Rice. Ed Stevens, at Harvard, rowed under Pop Courtney at Cornell, and, being from the West, teaches a combination of the Courtney and Conibear strikes. Harvard gave Yale a mighty close race last year in their dual re igatta. and has a splendid chance to win today In this four-cornered affair. t _ FEC Mt/R/M K$— "Golf ball sticks on woman's hat pin as she is crossing the links." —Xewsitem.

BOWBOtN BETS TOUGH BREAK AMO LOSES TO TECH. Boston, May 23—The Xew England track and ftetd championship came back to Technology yesterday after noon gfter an absence of four years. Seven athietes combined balance with brilliance and courage, and scored in nine events for 31 points at the 40th annuai meeting of the coiieges on Tech Field, Cambridge. Bowdoin was Hve points behind, and Boston College, expected to fur nish most of the opposition, was far down the list with 12 points. The meet was one disappointment after another for the Eagics. Frank Hus sey took the dash. B. C.'s oniy first, and then Coach Ryder withdrew him from the 220, when the meet was hopelessly lost. To Capt. George Leness. who ran out his iion heart to win the half mile and place second in the quarter; to George Steinbrenner, with a tirst ptace in the low hurdles and a sec ond in the highs; to James S. Wiebe. with a second in the broad jump and a third in the javelin; to Major San ford, who cleared 12 feet 2 3-4 in dies to tise for iirst in the pioe valut; To F. E. Giantzberg. who took third in the hammer, and to J. A. McCar thy, with a fourth in the Javelin, go the credit for Thecnoiogy's victory. What chance Bowdoin had, went, when its great sprinter. Harold Mos trom, pulied a tendon at the start of the 100 iinais. He courageously ran the 220, but was forced to drop out 50 yards from the iinish. After Tech's 31 points and Bow doin s 26 came Bates, with as good as miier as has shown in this Section this year, and a javeiin thrower who tossed the tricar ISO feet, with 16 points.

Cony High tasted of the cup of de feat, 8 to 8, Saturday afternoon. It was unpa!atab!e, but far from bitter It was the first game of the season that the Red and White found itsetf on the short end of the battie. Pat Ercneb's pupils of Jordan High were the administrators and the Andros coggin aggregation manifested keen deiight tn making the count Hfty Hfty for the season. The Cony lads played good ban They also played bad ball. Incident ally they piayed indifferent bail. On the right side of the ledger two Held ing gems acted as a sop to defeat The first came in the opening frame —a iightning three-ply killing that made even the old timers gasp. The stations were fuily peopied at the time, due to a brace of walks and a bobble—Then Matthews rifted one toward left but Stiles was in front of It and hesitating not a moment whipped it to Overlock aheao of the back-pedalling Beliveau and Tine with the play all figured out shot the pill to Bradstreet who nip ped Crowley in hurried retreat It certainty was a pretty piece of art ing. The second seintillating pfay came in the eighth. The pillows were again crowded with one out Hall laced a hot one to Stiles who whipped it home for a niftv out and Fletcher wheeled In time to peg out Ctguere racing to Hrst. It was worth while ball. I'arquette performed for si: frames. He was a trifle wild at times buj outside of the second stanza was not hit hard. Unfortunately some or his passes were mixed with miscues His dope ball was effective, but his assortment was not varied enough A fast one mixed in would have proved an ideal recipe to hand a de teat to the visitors. He was given a 1 hand when Coach Pierce wigwagged him out in the seventh. Lapidus re lieved him without any warming up and after doing a fair job in ciean- ing up that frame's mess, held the Lewistonians runiess the rest of the route. Scribner, the portsider Hash, had oceans of speed, which though er- tectrve at times, was discounted by Cony batsmen choking up on the wil low. Excellent examples of this style of attack against his speedy were given by Overiock. Xickless and bletcher. On the other hand at least tour with set lips and frowning brow s were determined to Babe Ruth the pii) out of the lot and as a result they either threshed the ambient at mosphere or dribbled weakly to the infield. -^nal.isis of the plav shows some odd findings. Take the case of Up Aiickless. In the tieid his work as a wiiote was decidedly messv. At the bat and on the paths he was bril- liant. Three times he scratched in- tieid hits due to his remarkahie speed to Hrst. Again he was a Hash tn the matter of piifering, his theft or the third station being clever. Stiies at third was also an in-and- outer. Twice he tangled himself up tn fielding easy ones, but sweet manta, these were forgiven by the two snappy plays that he initiated. The eount see-sawed for theSrst* stx Humes and it was anvbodvs game, it was in the seventh tha; O Leary.* probably having in mindthh dmastet that accompanied the act J of one of his ancestor's cows, kicked a hot one to right center and sent over a brace of runs that proved the undoing of Cony.

RcJio MotHes On(y ^4 Ifa^ter of Ejcpsrt 7g& Engineers ATLANTIC CITY, May K.—In an address before the National Eiectric Light Association meet ing in this city today, David Sar noff, Vice-President and General Manager of the Radio Corporation of America, hinted at the possibili i DAVtDSARNOFF ty of an early realization of "radio movies," the goal of radio scien tists. Speaking of the new Photoradio gram service now in operation across the Atlantic and Paciiic Oceans, Mr. Sarnoff said: "It is difHcult to adequately estimate the meaning of this new service to commerce, industry and society generally. But perhaps its great est significance lies in the fact that it marks the Srst definite step in the direction of an even more promising development in the fu ture; for the transmission of 'still pictures' differs from the transmis tion of 'moving pictures' only in the matter of speed. In all other essentials, the fundamental princi ples are the same. "As we leam to send pictures faster and yet faster, we shall ar rive at that point of speed when i 'radio television' will become pos sible and then, not only the sound of voices and instruments but the sight of action and motion will come to us and be received in our homes from the remotest corners of the earth. When this has become an accomplished fact through the scientiSc use of a great natural force, then, truly, shall we be able to say with the immortal Shake speare, 'One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.'

Jenkins, State supervisor of Home Economics, and Miss Esther McGinnis, director of Home Economics at the Univer sity of Maine. The principal speaker was Dr. W. S. Taylor, professor or Philosophy at the University of Maine, whose subject was "Mental Aspects of Child Training."

That more emphasis be put on management and training as well as on proper physical care. That more opportunities for actual contact with children be developed if possible, as for example, the use of an actual baby in demonstrating correct bathing and the use of real clothes in discussing babies' clothes. That the cooperation of experienc ed people in the community as mothers, nurses, and doctors be se cured. That the committee commends very highly the fact that there is a pro posed unit on child care and wel fare to be offered at the summer session at Castine and a suggestive outline for a course on child care for use of the teachers in the State, is to be published by the State depart ment.

Goodspeed. director of Home Economics ^t the University of Arkansas, as the principal speaker at the fall meeting of the State Associa tion which will be held at the time of i the next State Teachers' convention at Bangor.

Address by Dr. W. S. Taylor The importance of teaching chil dren to develop the right attitude to ward fear, dreams, morals, sex, and towards mankind in generai was em phasized by the speaker of the morn ing. Dr. IV. S. Tayior of the Univer sity of Maine. Speaking of the proper development of children's attitude towards fear, Dr. Tayior declared that it is crude to shame the child or to command him regarding his fear. Humane parents often endeavor to direct the child's attention from his fear. That is a good method with some children, but a better genera! method is to explain to the child his fear and neutralize the fear by facts and other interests. Regarding the deevoipment of the child's attitude towards morals, the speaker pointed that the chiid who thinks that morais are something ciamped on him and something that he must dodge, is out of tune with life. It is better to teach the chiid that morais is the way worked out for society to get on better. It is important to teach chiidren to think right about things. Some people are taught to believe they ought not to think what they do think. Parents who are dishonest about their own thinking are guiity of passing on that fault to their chiidren. Explanation to the chiid, understanding by the chiid and practice by the chiid are the ways that the habits or attitude may be built into the child's life so as to be of best service. Cooperation )n Ciub Work The spiendid work that Is being done by the boys' and girls' agricul tural clubs of the State was outlined by Misp Mildred Brown of Orono, as sistant State club leader, at the opening of the afternoon session, fol lowing luncheon served to the dele gates at the Augusta House.

"A High School Child Caro Course" "A High School Child Care Course" was the subject of the discourse giv en by Miss Mary Wallace, teacher of domestic science at Lewiston high school. She told how the girls in that school are being taught to pro perly care for children with emphases on food, clothing and general health, and stated that the girls are planning to work along this line In cooperation with the Red Cross nurse in Lewiston.

"It is considerably more than the combined forest area of all the other New England States, and more than that of New York and New Jersey put together. "On the basis of the ratio of forest area to total land area Maine easily leads all other states in the Union, with Arkan sas a poor second. The forest area is also unusually large in comparison to population. In this respect Maine, with a forest area of 19.5 acres per capita, exceeds all other states east of the Rocky Mountains with the single exception of Florida." From Bulletin No. 2, Maine Forest Service This large forest area is growing trees to supply the BIG Industry of the State. It is the area from which Maine's biggest and most impor tant industry receives its raw material. This raw material can be destroyed and the immense area laid a waste by Forest Fires. By helping protect these forests from fire you will be aid ing in perpetuating Maine's biggest industry. BE CAREFUL with fire when in the woods. The Croat Northern Paper Company

Augusta HOUSE DESIG NED FOR COMFORTABLE LIVING j F1RJT FLnoCL PLAH t 3ECOAJD fLOOR. PLAM This house has been designed for comfortabie living. The architects have so arranged the plans that the housework can he done with case. Note the arrangement of the kit chen in relation to the rear entry, ceiiarway, pantry and dining room: aii can be reached with but a very few steps. The dining room itas a large bay window on the front which gives a pieasant outlook. The iiving room has a generous open (irepiace with buiit-in bookcases on either side un der the windows. The striking feature of the plan is the porches; the architects have solved the problem of the living phrch and the steeping porch in an admirable manner, so they are not only livable, but add to the exterior appearance of the house as well. Too often sleeping porches are but ugly rfiake shifts "stuck" on the house giving the appearance of a sanatorium; which has been the rea son why so many people have given up the idea of a sleeping porch. The second floor of this house pro vides three good bed rooms, a bath and ample ciosets. all conveniently arranged about the center hall. The interiors should he carried out in the Coioniai style, to harmonize with the exterior. A cellar, providing the laundry, heater and coal spaces, and such, ex tends under the entire house. The exterior of the house is at tractive, every detail has been well designed, it is throughout, true to the best Dutch Colonial style—a house for those who discriminate. Cost about $S.!MO.

Safekote Shingles Blunt the Scythe of Time SAFEKOTE Slate-surfaced Asphalt Shingles resist the wear and tear of time. They wiH not cur! or crack. Fabricated as scientificaiiy, as carefully, as the steel and mortar foundations of a skyscraper—they last longer and serve better than you have ever imagined such low cost, convenient roofing could. It takes more than the best all rag felt—more than the complete impregnation of finest asphalt more than the surface of choicest crushed slate, so beautifully colored by nature—to make Safekote Shingles what they are. It takes brains, good judgment, skilled hands and ingenious machinery to obtain the toughness, the im penetrable compactness, the time weather-and-fire resistance found in all this guaranteed roofing. You need Safekote on your new building. If you are reroofing, you can lay Safekote right over the old roof. Then you'll be laying up sat isfaction for years to come.

It has been proven that moist mashes fed in conjunction with a good brand of dry chick food account for better growth of the initial plum age, flesh and frame than does a sta pie diet of grain and dry mash com pounds. To assist the chicks in donning their first coat of feathers the t'oilow ing moist mashes have proven of great vaiue;— Commercial biscuit meal or finely crushed dog biscuits scalded and allowed to soften, swell and cool down; rolled oats steeped in milk, and then worked Into a nice crumb!; condition with the addition of middlings; rice cooked In twice its own buik of water until It be comes a stiffened mass, in which a little cod liver oil bee been stirred, and to which is finally added ground oats to impart to it a nice crumbly consistency; a mixture of one part corn mea! and three parts grout'd oats or oatmeai scalded with boti'ng miik and finaiiy dried to a crumbiy state by the addition of middiings. By making use of these four different mashes the chicks can have a daiiy change of fare such as wiii be di gesttbie and nourishing. Twice a week a tight sprinkiing of pea meai and iinseed meai may be added to any of the above mashes, as they wiii give additionai aid as feather pro ducers. The mashes shouid be fed in conjunction with the best brand of dry chick feed procurabie; a com pound which inciudes hempseed and iinseed, the oiis of which greatiy as sist feather production. Neediess to say, mash foods shouid be served in Euitabiy.designed troughs or on clean feeding boards, whtist dry feed shouid be scattered over iitter to cnabie the chicks to get the scratching exercise which is so essentia! for their wel fare. \Yh*n the chicks have donned their first coot of feathers, it may be truty *did that they have succeeded in passing through the most critical period of their lives. The produc tion of new piumage is, at any time, more or icss a strain on the con stitutions of domesticated fowis, and the least iikety to survive such a strain under adverse conditions are iittie baby chicks. Following the flrd piumage don ned by the chicks, tne iatter wiii, in due course, be caiied upon by Ifature to repeat the process of casting off and replacing their ciothing. As the youngsters proach the three months oid stage of iife, the donning of the cockerel or puiiet piumage, according to sex. wiii begin. This moit wiii not tax the constitutions of the birds so much as did the initial one—that is assuming that the birds got through ihe first ordeai as weii cared for, ro bust chicks shouid do. It is very probabie that the birds which faiie-i to feather kindiy as baby chicks wiii be in a more or less denuded condi tion right on up to the time when they shouid be donning tbeir second coats. The most humane service one can do such debilitated subjects is to hand them over to the cook—that is provided they are meaty enough. If the birds pass kindiy through* the initial feather producing ordeai, they shouid. other conditions being favor abie, pass kindiy through their cock erel or puiiet moit, according to their sex. Feed plenty of green succulent vegetable food to young birds, even though the iatter may have grass !and to run over. kittle chicks can not break off the blades of grass when such are long and tough.

Wine Growers Advertise Baris,—(/P)—The wine growers of France are engaging in modern ad vertising campaign to secure the prestige of their vintages through poetry and poster contests. The modern vintners seem to have iost faith in the oid adage "Good wine needs no hush." a saying that may have originated in France, where a bush hung over the doorway is often the oniy sign the viiiage rctaiicr uses. Rheims. the home of Champagne wine, offered a prize for best song in praise of its unique product. Then the ieading vineyard owners of centra) France combined to institute a prize of 1^.000 Francs for the best work praising the soii that yields such precious crop. Xow the ^ne Arts Association of Beziers is organizing a competi tion for posters in a campaign for the "propagation of the biood of the vine." Beziers is down in the south east corner of France. A prize of 10,000 francs is offered for the win ning poster, anti severai "in kind" prizes, ranging from barrels to singie botties of wine, wii! be given Charming Roof Treatments *sraHE roof is adding its quota of brightness and gay charm to the landsc^e, in this age which is so colorful, both literacy and metaphorically speaking. No mat ter how demure a coior-scheme is chosen for the house, itself, the roof may blossom forth like a rose or a bluebell on a quiet Quaker bon net. For the new house the painted or stained shingles are best. These are colored before being put on. and may be had in a variety of tones. Some of the very newest roofs have shingles variegated in color. That is, shades of green and blue, soft browns and dull purple will over lap and seem to blend in to each other, with charming effect. Such an arrangement is especially good on a house that is painted cream or white. The grey house needs a brighter touch of color on the roof, to relieve its drabness. A certain shade of light red is par ticularly effective on the house that is painted in a neutral shade So, also, is a rather bright green roof. When a house is old. it is merely a case of repainting the roof, as well as the rest of the house. In this case, it will be more practica ble to paint the roof all one color, instead of attempting several tones. Green-brown, red, or reddish-brown are popular roof-colors. Deep red dish-brown makes an attractive roof for a house that is painted cream and has brown brick-work on porch and chimney. A green roof is har monious on a house painted brown and relieved with a white wood trim. On a house painted cream, with a brown wood-trim, a red roof is always effective. There is a shade of pinkish-red that is delight ful as a color for the roof of a house painted a deep ivory tint. A roof and wood-trim of golden brown are effective on a house that has been given that soft, pinkish hue resembling the tint of Cali fornia stucco. The roof color should always be a harmonious part of the genera! color-scheme of the house.

The senator described the executive order and the Goff biii as "flagrant vioiations of our constitutional rights" and declared that if either is put into execution "America will be trans formed into a slave market of one hun dred miiiion souis completely subject to the tyranny of an odious and hate ful iaw which has already hopelessly disrupted our age-oid scheme of gen eral law enforcement and is breeding a nation of hypocrites and active and potential criminals. "In an attempted justification of the president's prohibition order." he said, "Genera! Lincoln C. Andrews, czar of Voisteadis/n, is reported to have pub iiciy stated that it is too iate to ini-^ tiate an outcry about states' rights, that the ISth amendment kiiied that ancient and honorable siogan. "Since when has the president or the Congress of the United States been delegated by the American people to abrogate the bill of rights to requite a contemptibie minority at the expense of a suffering majority? Not since I have reached the age of reason." "Without the added menace of the Coolidge order and the Goff monstros ity." he continued, "there are strong and valid reasons against excluding the fruits of unconstitutional searches and seizures, and yet we have the sanctity of homes vioiated and the persons of our citizens uniawfuily searched in order that the Anti-Saioon League may fatten and flourish on their iii-gotten power. "I must lean on the state and com munities to carry their burdens in the enforcement of the prohibition law, says the naive Andrews. In other words, the Stars and Stripes must be taken from the flagpoles of the White House and treasury, and hoisted over city and county jaiis in order that America may be ied back into the paths of morai salvation. Constables are to be hired at the remunerative salary of two cents per week to neg iect their state duties in order that a dry unfortunate toting a hip pocket flask may reap his just rewards.
