President Wilson, who, drawing infer

views on what constitutes real patriot

Patriotism" he said, "is a prin-

can be true patriot who does not feel
himself shot through and through with
deep ardOr for what his country
stands for, what its existence means,
what its purpose Is declared to be In
its history and in its policy
Need No Alliances,
John Barry fought like every other
man in the Revolution in order that
America might be free to make her
own life without interruption or dis
turbance from any other quarter. You
can sum the whole thing up in that
that America had a right to her own
self-determined life.
There are just as vital things stir.
ring now that concern the existence
OF the nation as were stirring in the
time OF the Revolution and every man
who worthily stands in this presence
should examine himself and SEQ
whether he has the full conception OF
what It means that America shall live
her own life"
The President referred to the creed
of the revolutionary heroes by saying
that Washington and Barry were the
men who first saw that America must
live her own life without "entangling
alliances"

Tho Salty Atlantic.

Some odd disparities have been

A Slump In Kisses.

A Frenchman who apparently has a
good deal of time on his hands has
been amusing himself by reckoning up
the number of kisses he has given his
wife during the first twenty years of
his married life. He finds that in the
first year he dispensed about hundred
kisses day, or, say, allowing for birth
days and holidays, about 36,7O0 in the
year. In the second year this number
was reduced by half and In the third
year to ten a day, while in the fifth
year his better half had to be content
with two a day, one in the morning
and one in the evening. What hap
pened after the fifth year is wrapped
in mystery" but at the same rate of
progression" he probably arrived
eventually at one kiss on the LIST Of
January every leap year.

cover damages, which he claimed re-
suited from the destruction of his
water wheel by the defendant. He
also sues for the amount of profits
from his mill, which he has been de-
prived of by the loss of the use of the
water wheel. Fred Matthew of Water
vile was counsel for plaintiff and
Fred W. Clair of Waterville acted as
counsel for defendant
Mr. Piper, the first witness. testi-
fled that he had sold two old water
wheels, which he had at his mill, to
Pachefsky for junk, and that the de-
PENDANT had also taken an axe and
broken up his good wheel, which was
used 10 operate the mill. He said that
he was obliged to take a smaller wheel
from another portion of the mill and
use it in place of the one which had
been destroyed by defendant.
Hiram NJ Brann of Nassalboro tes-
titled that he inspected the wheel a
day CT two before it had been broken
up and found it in good condition He
estimated that the wheel was prob
ably worth $3.50, before it was broken
up but that it was utterly worthless
after that.
The case was continued, until 9.30
A. NJ, Wednesday. when the testi-
lnony of the defence will be taken up
