THE E. NJ. c. S.
Trustees of Bucksport Seminary Plan Ex-
tensive improvements, Including New
Building and a School Farm.

An important session of the trustees of the
East Maine Conference Seminary, the old and
wel-knoWn preparatory school at Bucksport,
was held in the Bangor Y M. c. A. building
last Thursday afternoon.
1t was voted to proceed with the expenditure
of the $4,000 now available, one-half of which
has been raised by subscription and the balance
to be received from the State. Of this amount,
0OO0 will be appropriated for new building
and the balance for repairs and alterations
upon the present buildings.
The new building will be located between
the present dormitory and chapel, although
some What farther back the hill. 1t will be
two stories and basement of brick, and will
contain the offices, classrooms, a chapel or as
sembly hall and probably gymnasium IN the
basement. The exact arrangement has not
been fully decided upon. Several architects
have asked for consideration of tentative plans
but the commission has not been awarded.
A building committee appointed Thurs
day, made up of Rev. George A. Martin, Ban
gor, chairman; Rev. Frederick Palladino, Rev.
Horace b. Haskell, Bangor; lion A. h. Irving,
Caribou; Hon. Parker Spotford, Principal F. E.
Bragdon and Richard X. Slower, Bucksport.
1t IS expect, that progress may be made so
THAI the laying of the cornerstone will be made
a feature of commencement week, in June.
4 Important action also taken for the
equIpping of the agricultural course, which
promises to be an important accession to the
school. 1t was voted to buy IL acres of land
adjoining the seminary grounds and.to lease
all additional tract for school farm; also to
purchase the necessary farming machinery
and tools and some live stock a nucleus for
a school farm herd.
THIS equipment will make up school or ex-
permental farm, and give the students actual
and practical work.
This action of the trustees should place
the famous institution on better footing than
ever.
Hon. Parker Spofford of Bucksports presi-
dent of the board of trustees, was present at
the session and presided. The other trustees
present were F. E Bragdon of Bucksport,
principal of the school; Rev. F. Palladino, Ban

Auto-scooter Makes so Miles an Hour.

A small automobile of the runabout
type. converted into an ''auto-scooter'
by means of runners and ccgged shoe
on the tire of one of the wheels, has
been causing much excitement on the
Shrewsbury River, New Jersey, because
of its remarkable speed. 1t made its ap-
pearance during the annual ice-boat
races, and succeeded in running circles
around all the other types of craft rep
resented. One of the fastest of the ice
boats was selected to race the auto
scooter, and, although there was brisk
wind, appeared to be standing still when
the latter started. A picture of the
race appears in the March Popular Me-
chanics Magazine.
