Leslie RiUais AIDE in Staying Queens English
STAGE HOME OF SLANG|

Co-partner with George AIDE in the
manufacture of American slang, Bert
Leslie today declares that fancy
phraseology" is fit for stage purposes
alone, and in his. conversation and
writing he seeks to attain purity of
English that would make Addison's
ghost jealous. Mr.. Leslie is spending
a week in Atlanta, appearing at the
Grand theater
Years ago Leslie was a reporter on
The Chicago Daily News. At the same
time George AIDE was doing similar
work on the old Chicago Record. Slang
was then as popular in the Windy City
as Carter Harrison and Leslie and AIDE
each strove to outdo each other in NAL
treating the English language They
succeeded so we'll that American slang
became an institution.
The whole success of slang on the
stage consists in its novelty said Les
lie The moment a slang expression
comes into common use about the
streets it loses it's novelty and the audi
ence says how cheap and for this
| reason slang factories have to work
overtime.
Practically all of our slang origi-
mates on the stage, and it is sheer in
venton. An audience takes up an ex-
preston and in a few days it is on the
lips of every newsboy in the city. Have

Water Powers of Maine.

OF the water powers in Maine the
servation Commission tells us that tn
total developed water power of Maine
is something like $4,000 horse power
and the United States Geographical
Survey estimates the power of Maine
in its original state, at 100000 horse
power, which can be enlarged by. stor-
age dams to the extent of 1000, 600
horse power, or enough to turn all the
wheels of New England if pumped

so that this industry is no more, and
ought 1t not TO be in the province of
this board 10 see if it cannot be re-
yived?
The other item was: In the year
1911, not a single raft of lumber came
down the Penobscot river to Bangor.
Forty years ago. and down as late IS
1880. the river above Bangor for IL
to II miles was lined with saw mills,
many of them operated by water
power and their product aggregating
from 100000. 900 to 150,000,000 feet OF
lumber, which was made up into what
were known as long watts and sent IL
that form down the river to the wait
ing vessels in the harbor below Ban
gor bridge. From that time on the
up-river sawmills have gradually dis
appeared either by fire, decay, or
through the conversion of water power
to other uses. until now there are only
four mills running between Bangor
and Milford all shipping their product
by rail
We all know to what these changes
are attributable. Even the proprietors
of enc of the pulp mills on the Ken
nebee own timber lands to the value
of over $4,000. 900. But what is to be
done in Maine when our lumber in
dustry fails. or is confined to the
hands of a few? Naturally our
thoughts turn to agriculture as one of
the redeeming features.
Agriculture.

coming to the front. 1t Is related that
