From Bath and Lewiston To New
York by Trolley

The last link of the trolley system
which will join New York to Lewiston
and Bath, was opened for travel Sun
day, when the Atlantic Shore Line
railway opened for public travel the
line between York Beach and kenne-
bunk. At the same time this will open
up for travel by trolley some of the
most historic and picturesque country
along the New England coast.
For the past five years or for that
matter, since the construction of the
eastern division of the Atlantic Shore
line from Sanford to Kennebunk and
Cape Porpoise, connecting with the
Biddeford road on the east, the only
missing stretch of electric road, has
been between York Beach and Ken
nebunk. 1t was the only break be-
tween New York and the west and
Bath and the east.
The power for this new link of road
is obtained from a water power at
Old Falls in kennebunk of 1000 horse
power and a lesser one at Sanford.
There is also steam plant of 500
horsepower at Kennebunk, besides
the steam plant of the old western
division at Kittery Point.

How TO Follow Forest Trails.

THE trail has code OF signs. as
well as book OF laws" says Hamlin
Garland in The Long Trail" A twig
designedly broken is like finger
pointing toward gate. A blaze cor
responds to the reckoning hand. A
new blaze renders an old one OF no
value. A sapling cut and bent across
a path locks It and warningly says,
Go no farther this way A stick set
upright In the mud means no bottom
here
by use of these and many other
records of the same sort the trailer
profits by the experience of those who
have gone before him and aids those
who are TO follow. There Is always
news on the trail for those who have
eyes to perceive IT, and 1t is the duty
of him who rides ahead TO enlighten
those who are TO follow. The klikitnt
by means of signs almost invisible can
cheer, direct and definitely warn his
tribesman. These signs on the trail
are respected. No one thinks OF re-
moving them except for cause

Rumors From Shiloh.

~ believe with many others, that
there will be a general exodus from
the Shiloh colony in the near future"
This statement by Miss Margaret Sui
Ivan, who recently fed the colony
and is now at her, home in Manches
ter, N. H., has caused sens alton at
Durham. Without the perso nal in
fiuence of Elijah Sanford, leader
of the Holy Ghost and Us Society at
Shiloh, it is feared many more will
fee from the institution. Rev. Frank
Sanford will not return from the
Holy Land for some months at least,
and the escape of Miss Sullivan may
encourage others. But the long alb
sence of the Elijah has by no means
been a cause of any financial loss to
the colonists.
While he is abroad living in luxury,
and his followers are tilling the soil
and becoming mariners and fishers of
the sea, checks and cash continue to
pour in from friends and we'll wishers,
Some converts give their all,
amounting in one recent instance to
$4,000 and another of an equally
large sum recently. AS a matter of
fact, Shiloh is prospecting as never be-
fore, Notwithstanding its somewhat
peculiar methods of farming. They
rest two days a week-Saturday and
Sunday. The first they spend in rest
and meditation, the second in exhor-
tation and prayer. While cultivating
their rs acres of potatoes they stop at
any time to pray, while frequently
their ploughs and cultivators stand
idle in the field and the horses at
tached to them Craze on potato vines,
while the workers stand in the rows
and read their bibles. Notwithstand-
ing, they are successful, as their bank
account will show. The institution
now owns hundreds of acres of land in
Durham, the seat of the colony, and
the plan is to make it self-supporting.
Since many members are practical
farmers and as each member of the
church pays certain percentage each
week for the support of the institu-
ton, the result is satisfactory to
those who have been entrusted with
the conduct of affairs during the alb
sence of the real leader.
At present there are about 700
people on the Shiloh hill and on these
farms. This spring and summer
many hundreds of pounds of grass
seed and fertilizer have been pur-
chased for use on the farms, and with
IS acres of potatoes for fall digging
everything is satisfactory save the
prolonged stay in Palestine of the
"Eliiah."
