WINTER AT HIGH ISLAND.
The Water Question an Important One.

In winter quarters at High Island are
about 275 or 800 men, connected with
the various departments of the ex-
tensive granite industry established
there by the Grays of Philadelphia. The
weather has prohibited steady work,
but the crews have taken advantage of
the favorable opportunities, and quite
a bit of work has been accomplished.
The water question has been quite an
important one. A portion of the
supply is brought from Dix Island by
boat, while the tug Sommers N. Smith
has made a number OF trips to this
island, bringing 10000 gallons each
time. Work was begun. on an artesian
well last fall and will probably be re-
sumed in the spring. AS there will
probably be 500 men employed on the
island the coming summer it will be
readily understood that the proprietors
are anxious to provide an adequate
supply of fresh water. The island hac
two large boarding houses, the larger
accommodating about 400 men. Leslie
Hamilton of Rockland is the steward
and II. L. Thomas of Rockland is in
charge of the pastry department. Both
men are very expert i'll their line OF
WIN. Ml. llOuidS WdS III lONIl ycSUtl-
day. He says that among the food
used at each meal are 60 loaves OF
white bread, 20 pans Of gingerbread and
a barrel of doughnuts. Among the in
gradients of High Island boiled din
ner are $50 pounds of meat, crate of
onions and three barrels of cabbages.
When boiled eggs are served at break
fast it takes 80 dozen. A fish dinner
exhausts 225 pounds of corned fish and
two barrels of potatoes. AS most of
the supplies are bought in Rockland it
will be seen that the High Island in
dustry furnishes very welcome addi-
ton to the city's source of income.
During the long winter nights the men
have found amusement in boxing
matches, games, graphophone concerts,
bagpipe music, etc. The men come to
Rockland as often as they are able to
find an opportunity and spend good
money here. Rockland can well afford
to offer its good wishes to the proprie.
tors of this industry.-Rockland

Literary News and Notes.

American Pottery" forms the sub
ject of the March Cosmopolitan's article
in it's series on the Great Industries of
the United States. Clay-wOrking is
one of the youngest of American in
dustries. vet this country now leads the
world in the production of the ma
chinery that has revolutionized clay.
working within less than a quarter of a
century.
The way of the trangressor is hard,
and particularly hard for those whom
our Secret Service agents make it their
business to look out for. The work OF
these agents is Interestingly told in the
March Cosmopolitan in an article by
John E. Wilkie, Chief of the Secret
Service Division. 1t is called 1.-THE
WAYS of the Counterfeiter."
In The Twentieth Century Home for
March George Rutledge Gibson makes
strong plea for State aid for cooking
schools. Almost every State in the
Union has agricultural schools and col
leges, and some of them schools in
horticulture and forestry, which are
common pursuits. But no State or
national provision is made for women
to learn how to prepare improved
varieties of plant and animal-life. The
need is obvious.
"Home Gymnasiums and Their Equip
ment," by Dr. Watson l.. Savage, in
the March Twentieth Century Home,
tells how convenient exercising rooms
may be fitted up i'll private houses at
little trouble and small COST Some
very elaborate gymnasiums have dur
ing the past few years been constructed
for private use, containing basketball,
tennis and squash courts, bowling
alleys, ct cetera, and number of these
have been photographed to furnish
illustrations for the article.
A magazine article of uncommon in
tereSt is that by Frank Foxcroft in the
March Atlantic on The Drift away
from Prohibition. Considering the con-
Trajectory facts that there is growing
sentiment in favor of temperance, and
that strict prohibition laws have been
repealed in many States, Mr.. Foxcroft
shows that these are reconciled by the
growing belief in the advantages of
local option. He has studied the opera
ton of the local option laws in many
towns in New Hampshire and Vermont,
and comes at the end to some interest
ing conclusions.

Chicago Mothers Club in Favor of New
Prayer.
The West End mothers council, Chi
cago, has declared out of date the ''Now
/ lay me- prayer of childhood and of
fers in its stead others that sound
more euphOnious and poetic.
One of the members said: elf we
take away Santa Claus from childhood
and now remove the Now l LAZY me-
prayer, what will be left as landmarks
for the young?"
Mrs. Edgar A. Hall, president of the
council, led this crusade against the
prayer. She took particular exception
to the lines
And if die before | wake :
pray thee, Lord, my soul to take.
''The idea of death during the night is
horrible, and I>never use it." she said.
Her remarks apparently were ap-
proved by those present, or most of
them, for her substitute was listened to
with many mods of approval. Here it
is:
Father, we thank thee for the night
And for the pleasant morning light,
For rest and food, and loving care
And all that makes the world so fair.
Beautiful" some one murmured,
SO tranquilizing."
Then others offered substitutes for
the time-honored "Now lay me-"
Mrs. Robert W. Smith, correspond
ing secretary of the club, submitted
this:
Jesus, tender shepherd, hear me,
Bless thy dear lamb tonight;
Through the darkness be thou near me,
Keep me safe till morning light.
