the adjournment.
Supper was to be served in half an hour,
and the time Intervening was spent in
strolling about or calling on friends. At
the appointed time the out of town dele
gates gathered in the pleasant upper room,
Searsport c: E. members. After every
body's appetite was appeased, and some Of
them were decidedly hearty, everyone
went his own way until 7.30 p: M, when
the evening meeting began with short
praise service, led by Mr.. Williams. Mr..
Williams spoke of the advisability of Great
ing an executive committee which would
have general oversight and advisory
power, and which should have special care
over the finances of the Union. On motion
of Mr.. Williams it was moved to have such
two others, and Mr.: Williams of Searsport
and Miss Isabel CHM of Belfast were
elected members of this committee.
Mr.. Robert A. Jordan, secretary OF the
Bangor Y. NJ. G. A., before giving his ad-
| dress on "Our Personal Obligation to Indi-
yiduals" spoke of the grand work the Y: N.
fine building. Mr.. Jordan illustrated his
interesting address with many incidents
| from his own experiences which made his
| meaning specially clear and his words
| doubly helpful. Although it was growing
late it was with regret that he gave the
text that closed his address-James 4, II.
Miss Philbrook then announced that the
banner, dainty, handsome affair of white
and gold, was to 60 to the Park e. E. So

its size, and that next in order was the Bel

ana TO the inexperienced Of The people
in dairy matters.
t.In the majority Of Delghborhoods
IN Missouri not now provided with s
creamery it is not a cooperative
preparations. When it is recognized
shat a creamery in Lny community
would be a good thing aud there are
not enough cows, the farmers should
organize for the express purpose OF
laying a foundation for = successful
creamery. Do this by; first, aiding
each other in the selections and
purchase of a few good common COWS
price from s25 to $40 eaeh;I second,
clubbing together in the purchase Of 8
good pure blooded bull Of some pro-
nounced dairy breed, Q. 6. HolsteiD,
Jersey, Guernsey, or Ayrshire. The
bull should be selected first, on account
OF his individual qualities; second, on
account of the performances Of his
an cestors; third because Of his pedigree.
The sole purpose of the bull is to get
young so when he has proved his
ability to get good young be should be
kept as long as he is able to sire
animals of this class. When the bull
has been used in the neighborhood till
his own calves are old enough to be
bred be should be exchanged for
another Of his kind in some other
neigbborhood. 1t is occasionally but
not usually wise for inbreeding to be
practiced.
"In three or four years under this
plan there will be COWS enough IN the
community to afford a foundation for
the creamery, for remember that the
creamery cannot be run without milk
and it is not money but COWS that give
milk.
"While these herds are being built
up, the cream produced may be made
into butter at home, sold to a centraliz-
ing plant, or the milk sold to dealers
in the large cities, or sent to a cheese
factory.
"There is absolutely no question but
that a creamery would benefit any
farming community in Missouri, but it
is useless to build a factory where
there are no COWS to keep it going.
Lay the foundation first and then
erect the buildings.

The New Wire.WOund Gun.

The important e principle in the
Brown gun just built in The Scott
Iron Company works at Reading, Pa,
is the winding of q tube Of ~inVolute
steel plates with polished steel wire,
thus securing both longitudinal and
circumferential strength. The gun is
S13 inches long and weighs 20, 900
pounds. On a forged-steel lining-tube
thirty.four fiat steel sheets, one seventh
of an inch in thickness and 308 inches
in length, are laid in the same fashion
that shingles are put on q roof, one
under the other. But in this ease they
curl around the lining.tube, fitting
exactly, and form the true tapering
cylinder. On the outside OF these
plates Is wound, back and forth, just
as thread is wound on a spool, twenty.
one miles of steel wire which is 80
tightly stretched by a special machine
that every inch is tested to stand
$500 pounds tension. There are
seven layers OF wound wire at the
muzzle and twenty-one at the breech.
On the outside Of the wire. for a dis.
tance Of twelve feet from the breech,
is shruuk a iSrged-steel jacket to cover
the powder chamber. 1t is believed
that no powder. pressure in explosion
could burst this gun.-SeW Fighting

The Parent, " by NJ. II Carter, in
the November McClure's, might well
be called the confessions OF a school
teacher: for such, indeed, it is, the
real story Of the teachers side OF the
great public school problem. It is
delightfully."- funny and informing,
presented with all the joy Of keen
insight and a humorous point OF view.
The author, after years of experience,
finds that 1.-THE Problem. the all
prevailing all-overshadowing Problem
of education is the parent. Weekly,
sometimes daily, the ingenuity OF the
teacher is taxed to its utmost to meet,
and If possible vanquIsh. 1.-The
different parent, the iuconsiderate
parent, the meddlesome parent, the
fond parents, the proud parent, the
troublesome parent, the ignorant
parent, and the enlightened parent;
but in the end, the writer concludes,
the parent prevails,
Just how these various parents
operate, and their distinguishing
characteristics, are clearly and most
entertalningly shown. But there is
one more parent in the list-the on
siderate parent; but in spite of this
occasional presence, the teacher
author concludes, s'the Gordlan Knot
of the parent problem was beyond
untying; 1 have cut it.

The chef executive of France is a

nothing more. He is mol brilliant.
A plain, homely man, be is a rational
representative of the French middle
class. In Benjamin Hsrrison we had
his equivalent in the United States.
There is no inherent greatness in him,
but he is wise, patient, firm, and kindly.
he has a large meas:re OF tact, which
in a chef Of state Is, perhaps, the
most desirable of all qualities. His
political record is clean, though 1t
shows adroitness rather than any CON
pelllng force of initiative. HIS private
life has been pure and pleasant. He
has all the virtues OF the middle.

same the world over.
When he goes his way from the
Elysee there will be little said of him
but good. He, IN the shade of the
