MAINE EDITORIAL COMMENT.
The Riqht Books for Boys.
Belfast Journal.>

(IoelIttSl JOuA Iidi/
There cannot be too many good books
for boys--we do not mean the goodE
good kind--books that will instruct and
entertain the clean minded vigorous
boys who grow up credit to them
selves, to their parents and to the
State of their birth. Maine has pro-
duced many such boys, and no doubt
will continue to produce them; and 1t
is due that they should have literary
pabulum of the right sort. The old
boys, of whom the writer is one, will
recall the Rollo books. much priced in
their day; but they would hardly APP
peal to the present generation. Then
came the Whispering Pine series by
Elijah Kellogg and still later the books
of James Otis; both Maine authors and
deServedly popular. James Otis is still
writing books for boys, and now we
have also in this field Holman Day, the
Maine bard and novelist. VIII" won i'll
slant recognition with The Eagle
Badge" and Clarence b. Rurleigh Of
Augusta. who has to his credit a Sc
RIGS of four books. The Camp on Let
ter n "Eaymond Benson at kramp-
tom "The Kcnton Pines" and "All
Among the Loggers. These are all
books of the right sort. From the
Central Maine Publishing Co, Water
vile, comes another good book-"In
Camp With boys by G. w. Hinckley
of Good Will Farm The volume is
made up Of six stories telling of differ
ent expeditions for fishing, mountain
climbing. etc, with experiences in

interesting q way that they are good
reading for both old and young. That
the scenes of these stories are in
Maine. and some Of them near by. is
an added local attraction to book that
should find readers everywhere.

THE SIGHTS OF SLOUGH.
Spots of Legendary, Literary and
Historic Interest.

The soil of England is so thiOKlv
sown with legends and historic and
literary shrnes that if one should TN
eNpectedly be set down from Il balloon
or an automobile in any part of the
be likely to find something to interest
him. This is illustrated by the con-
tents of a little pocket guide about
Slough, recently published. Slough is
a town OF approximately fourteen thou
sand inhabitants. situated eighteen
miles west of London. 1t stands on the
Great Bath Road" In earlier DAYS
before a. direct rail line was built to
the royal country seat, members of the
royal household used to leave the trains
at Slough on their way to Windsor,

nine miles, one may find the burial
places of Edmund Burke. Edmund
Waller. the poet and the author
of the ''Elegy Written in a Country
Churchyard'' Two villages in which
John Milton lived. one still containing
q cottage whose roof is said to have
sheltered the head of the blind poet,
are in the neighborhood. Only six miles
from Slough Is RunnNmcde. indiSsoiI-

Elton College is only one and a half

The first public telegraph line in
England is said to have been erected
between Paddington and Slough in
1914, and the first time the telegraph
was used for the capture of a criminal
was the employment Of this line when

namely, the change of the State cleo
ton from September to November to
conform with the customs in most of
the other states of the Union. This is
a matter upon which there will be a
divergence Of opinions and there are
arguments both for and against the
change. 1t is a difficult thing to bring
about constitutional changes and
Maine is wisely conservative in such
matters.
Governor Fernald calls attention to
the present crowded condition of the
State House and the imperative need
Of more room in the immediate future
for the various departments, for COM
mittec hearings during legislative
winters and for the storing of valuable
records which are now in constant
hazard of fire. He urges the COM
mittee on public buildings to give this
matter early consideration.
The recent report of the special tax
commission is commented upon at
length and he intimates that later in
the session he may send in special
messages regarding the various mat
ters touched upon in this report. He
makes it plain. however. that he stands
squarely for tax reform and that he
heartily approves of the suggestions of
the report for relief from excessive
tax on real estate and tangible pro-
perty in general and the pacing OF a
larger proportionatc share on property
reached by special taxation. He thinks
that here in Maine we have relied too
much on direct property tax, and yet
he would not do away wholly with this,
for there are many advantages in a
tax system which is inclusive of ell
interests and which keeps all citizens
of the State directly interested in the
expenditure of public money.
In closing his address Governor
Fernald makes it pain that he stands
squarely for the Maine prohibitory law.
He says, Il believe it to be wise,
judicious and salutary." and declares
that he will resist any effort to "legis-
late enforcement out OF the statutes.
He does not mention the so-called
Sturgis law by name but it is easy to
draw the conclusion that if the Sturgis
law Is repealed he will insist
upon some adequate substitute. No
part of his message will be read more
carefully than the few paragraphs in
which he touches upon this matter
which Is so prominently in the public
mind.
