The advance guard of the summer
vacationists is now on its way into
Maine. and while the rush will not COM
mence in earnest for about two weeks
the travel over the Maine Centf1. is
heavy, and the through trains which
mass Augusta for the east are now
heavily loaded. The travellers are now
mainly fishermen on their way to the
many lakes which abound in the north,
ern part of the State. but as soon as
the schools close the tourists will con-
sist of families instead of individuals.
IT is the popular impression that more
people are coming to Maine this sum-
MGR than ever before, and the greatly
improved service of the Maine Central
which has been put into operation
since the time changed about ten days
ago will not lie any more than adc-
ouate to handle the crush which is sure
10 come into the State during the next
three months.
