Cures Colds: Prevents Pneumonia
A Belfast Boys Success.

Frank B. Condor of Belfast, Colby '0s,
has been elected instructor in mathema-
tics at Coburn. During the past year he
has been sub master in the Houlton High
school and has been very successful, es-
pecially in the management of boys, in
which he has had much experience. He
has always been interested in Young
Mems Christian association work and has
been strongly urged to join the State
forces because of his peculiar talent for
such labor, but has preferred teaching.
The position at Coburn proved very at
tractive to him, as it affords him the op-
portunities he has desired, and it is be-
lieved that he will be very valuable man
for the school.
Mr.. Condor has wide acquaintance
among the young men of the State and
will spend good part of the summer
visiting different sections in the interests
of Coburn, beginning his work as in
structor at the opening Of the school
year. He made a fine record as student
at Colby and was very popular all through
his course. The trustees believe he will
be able to do great deal for Coburn both
as teacher and as leader for the boys.

Shipbuilding in 1908.

The smallest output Of the American
shipbuilding industry since 1898 is the
record shown in the figures gathered by
the bureau during the fiscal year just
ended, but shipbuilding contracts Indicate
a material increase during the year end
ing June 80 next There were 1852 mer-
chant vessels of 1872, SIG gross tons built
in the United States the past year COM
pared with 1906 of 5s8, 1927 gross tons
during the fiscal year 1908, which was the
record year of American shipbuilding.
The Edward B. Winslow of Bath, Maine,
was the largest wooden schooner ever
built. No vessels for foreign trade and
no square rugged vessels were built. Of
the years output, 6O,952 tons were
barges and canal boats.

Their Notable Builders And The Extraor-
binary Quick Passages They Made.
In an article on the fastest sailing YES
sells of the nineteenth century, published
recently in the Boston Herald, Frank c.
Brownell gives an interesting history of
Boston S supremacy as shipbuilding and
shipping port sixty years ago. Boston
ships, says Mr.. Brownell included those
built at Medford, Newburyport, Scituate,
Duxbury, Kingston, and Plymouth, and
these ships rated higher than those built
at any other port excepting Portsmouth,
N H.
Among the builders of those days who
turned out record breakers We're Donald
Mckay, who constructed in all over 120
sail of vessels and whose Flying Cloud
Il, 100 tons) made the fastest passage
(S9 days II hours) between New York
and San Francisco; whose Sovereign of
the Seas ran 3,144 miles in 10 days and
made 430 geographical miles in "a hours;
the Lightning, which sailed from Mel
bourne to Liverpool in 63 days, and the
built in 1858, one of the ablest if not the
Other builders We're Samuel Hall,
NllOSC ouI l,lloV al 4iolll NEW L olh W
San Francisco in 80 days and from San
Francisco to Canton in 81 days; the
Gamecock, Florence and others well
known for smart sailing. The Boston
built sailing ship that holds the record
between that port and San Francisco,
was the Northern Light, built by E. &
H. O. Briggs, and which made this run
in IS days.
Other notable passages were those of
the ship Midnight, Hong Kong to New
York, 80 days; ship Charger, Calcutta to
Boston, 70 days; James Baynes, Liver
pool to Melbourne, 62 days, making the
return voyage in 60 days; North America
Quilt by Paul Curtis) San Francisco to
Cork in SO days, making a record which
was never beaten. In those days for ten
months in the year it was almost impossi-
BILE to find an unoccupied berth in the port
of Boston from Charlestown Bridge to
Fort Hill, and in the busiest times YES
sells would lie three deep at the docks,
while many would be waiting in the
stream for berths
1t was the practice then before the
advent of tugs to move vessels by means
of buoys placed off the ends Of wharves,
by which they were warped along, and a
day was often consumed in hauling from
India Wharf to Charlestown. The first
steam tugs employed in the harbor were
the side-wheelers DAMN, John Tyler, and
Jacob Bell, and the first propeller tug
came there from Philadelphia in about
1850.

NEW HIGH SCHOOL LAW.
1t Went Into Effect July End. Harry M.
Wheeler Appointed Inspector.

VSuSStSt <APkOuAsS&A ulSPC@AOI
State Superintendent Payson Smith
announces the appointment Of Harry M.
Wheeler of South Paris as inspector of
High schools, as authorized by the last
legislature. Mr.. Wheeler is native of
Maine. He graduated from Harvard
University in the class of 1906. He has
been for three years the principal of
Caribou High school and has a familiar
acquaintance with secondary school con-
ditions throughout Maine and New Eng
land.
The new High school law which author
ICES this appointment is in effect July End
and makes several important changes in
the conduct of secondary schools. Under
its provisions High schools are divided
into three classes, A, B and c, according
to the courses offered, the amount ex-
pended for instruction and the teachers
employed. The amount of State aid given
to towns is considerably increased, every
town being entitled to reimbursement for
the support of any class of High school
TO the limit of $500 instead of $3.50 as
provided under the old law, while the
towns will be required to meet more
rigid standard in respect to courses and
instruction. The provision Of the three
GLASSES ditIlS W IIlcel IIle NdIlcu IlceuS u
different towns, permitting smaller towns
to offer as much work as their resources
make possible, without requiring that
they have as many teachers and as much
equipment as would be expected of larger
schools The standard of work, so far as
extends in any school, will, however, be
reasonably uniform for all schools. Cir
culars of information regarding the new
requirements are being prepared for
early distribution among school officers
and teachers.
This new High school law requires
that all the secondary schools of the
State be visited at least once in each
year by State inspector whose duty it
will be to report on the work and pro-
gress of the schools and to bring sug-
gestions and aid to the teachers and
school committees.
Hitherto only academies affiliated with
colleges have had the advantages of sys-
tematic visitation, while under the new
provision all secondary schools receiving
State aid will have such advantages.
The visitation will be made not only to
help the schools in their endeavors to
prepare more satisfactorily for higher
schools, but it will also be made for the
purpose of helping the High schools to
meet the demands of the communities
and the State.
Through this new arrangement it is
hoped to secure more satisfactory ad
justment of the whole system of public
