BREATHE THROUGH YOUR EARS

In those prehistoric times when you were

gills and If still did tuberculosis and all
kindred germs would have batting average of

Such the teachings of DR.. John G. Davis
of the University of Virginia medical department,
delivered before a local body of medical students,
according to Washington correspondent of the
Pittsburgh Dispatch
"You exhae air through the now Just

Muscles of this old breathing organ have

into the lungs throat. After little practice a
child will be able to close or shut his ears just

strikes full hundred thousand glasses are
raised aloft in the JOY palaces and the health of
the New Year is drunk.
The lobster show places of New York-human
and crustacean-are damned to the doors with
the tables engaged weeks before hand. The noise
and the wine-drinking zone extends fully ten
miles, with every foot of it packed by yelling,
struggling, goodnatured crowd. marching in UNI
ending procession up and down the streets. At
midnight the din, the roar and the rattle that
has kept up increasingly since the electric lights
were turned on breaks loose in one mighty blast
that threatens to tear the subway trains
from underground and jar the elevated from
their tracks, Nowhere else in the country is the
celebration SO blatant, ridiculous and so reck
lessly extravagant there
From the spectacular standpoint and the long
list of notables on dress parade no celebration
equals, perhaps, that at the White House, at

Second only in splendor of display to the glitter
ing uniforms of the diplomats and the army and
navy officers the floral settings. Uncle Sam
furnishes the flowers from his wonderful green
houses and likewise the music the famous Unit
ed States Marine band, that always plays at
White House functions.
Every vantage point is seized upon for the
banking of flowers and extreme care has to be
taken that they will not impede the progress OF
the 10000 people and more who surge through
the rooms at the reception. All mantels are COW
cred with blooms and palms and bouquets in
vases are placed at every convenient point
The president takes his place in the blue room
and the procession begins with the foreign am
bassadors headed by the dean of the corps, and
the ministers and attaches of the various lega-
lions. Then come the chief justice and the other
members of the judiciary; then the senator's rep
resentatives, army and navy officers and other
officials of the government Later in the day the
\president receives the people at large and their
waiting line generally extends from the front
door of the White House out to and down Penn
sylvania avenue for several blocks.

and countless wireless stations will publish the
glad tidings to every city and village in the
country and to ships at And this will be
official, too for the message will come direct
from the United States naval observatory at
Washington, and still more directly from an old

WOMAN'S CLUB ACTED
AS HOSTESS
To the Town improvement Society
and the S0rOSis In Bethany ParlOrs.

Another delightful club function
was that of Wednesday, the 14th, when
the Woman's club was hostess to the
Town Improvement Society and Soro-
sis.
The hostesses were Mrs. Ella Nit
and Miss Mabel Robinson, who also
supervised the decorations which were
festoons of smilaX and red hearts
The program was in charge of Mrs.
Evelyn Pratt and was opened by
words of welcome extended by the
president, Mrs. Gertrude Bucknam.
At the conclusion of the Secretary's
report, a violin solo was played by
J. Abbott Kendall with Mrs Kendall
accompanist, and this was followed
by a very able and interesting paper
on The Life and Works of Dickens,
by Mrs. Evelyn Pratt. Mrs. Nell
Leavitt Hill, in her inimitable way,
gave humorous reading from Pick
wick papers, and then Prof Kendall
again favored the ladies with violin
solo, while he was followed by Mrs.
Della Bartlett who entertainingly gave
the pathetic reading of Little Joe
from Bleak House. A Southern song
was sung by the quartet, composed of
Mrs. Emma II. Dunton, Mrs. Arazina
Miller, Mrs. Rose Merrill and Mrs. c,
N. Bragg, and the program was closed
by Miss Pauline Oak, who very artis-
tically executed the reading, King
Robert of Sicily and responded
equally as charmingly with an en-
core.
After the program was ended, So
cial hour was enjoyed and a Valen-
tine lunch was served by Mrs Mary
Stinchfield and Mrs. Alta Elliott.
The next meeting will be Friday
evening, March l, when the Woman s
club and Sorosis will unite in having
a Gentlemen's night and banquet
Mrs Belle Haines Hall of Boston, will
be present as entertainer.

BY invitation of the Democratic
County Committee some fifty-odd mem
bers of that party met at the Skowhe-
gan House Tuesday morning and or

Pittstield, Judge Fred Emery Bean OF

Bradbury of Fairfield was appointed
chairman of the committee of arrange
ments. Senator Donigan announced
that an effort would be made to pro
cure a special car for the delegation
from Somerset County to the National
Convention in Baltimore. The direct
primary law was very fully discussed,
and many nomination papers were cir
culated for the signatures of those
present. Dinner was served for the
crowd in the dining room, and the con-
ference broke up in time for the after
noon train.

but we can work towards our ideals
however situated Then she told
some stories to convince her hearers
that the Socialists had undertaken
municipal house cleaning with a
spirit new to America.
In Milwaukee the first step had
been to cut the hours of labor for
street employees from 10 to 8, and
increase the pay from $l.75 to 81.
Employees in the city hall Offices
where from three to five hours of
half-hearted effort had been the for
mer rule, were directed to report for
duty at 8 A. NJ, and put in 8 hours
State University had been employed
to plan the work of the health board,
and for medical inspection of the
school children. Unsanitary arrange
ments of the water supply had been
corrected to remove danger of ty-
phoid.
In the National field, Congressman
Berger had introduced bills for the 8
hour day and an old age pension These
measures were but palliatives under
the capitalist system, but would, If
passed, relieve much human suffer
ing. When the mayor of Schenectady
was elected recently, there was a
strike in progress. The employers
had imported scabs and were housing
them at the works. The Socialist
mayor informed the corporation man
ayers that If they proposed to run a
hotel that they must comply with the
hotel laws. This brought matters to
a crisis and secured a fair settlement
for the working class. Mrs. Lewis
claimed that it was the power of the
Socialists that had preserved the
peace of Europe for the past few de-
cades.

The history of SkowheEan tells us
that Benedict Arnold landed on the
Island in this village 156 years ago
on his trip to Quebec. The true
daughters of the Revolution, who are
grouped together locally as the Eu-
nice FarnsWorth Chapter, d. A. r.,
here are arranging to further COM
memorate this event by the erecting of
a bronze tablet on this historical spot
Levi Weston is TO furnish the boulder
to form the base for the marker
which the daughters with the assist
ance of Skowhegan people purpose to
give proper position.
To accomplish this, the chapter has
been holding in the Library parlors,
yesterday and today, an exhibit of an
tiques, the proceeds of which are TO
be devoted to the purchasing of the
tablet The general committee in
charge have been Miss Gertrude West
on, Mrs. J. Palmer Merrill and Mrs.
W b. Steward, while the chairman of
the other committees included Mrs. R.
T. Patten of the printing committee.
Miss Lizzie Hussey of the collecting
committee and Mrs J. Palmer Mer-
rill to procure old portraits.
The east room of the parlors which
was first visited by the guests, was
transformed into an old-time kitchen
A temporary fire place had been ar
ranged with a display OF ancient pots
and frying pans, with tin kitchens and
bakers standing nearby. On the man
tie were tallow candles of the home
made kind, while ranged around the
room were the spinning wheel, loaned
by Miss Lizzie Hussey, the flax wheel,
loaned by Mrs. Fred Philhriek. tha
clock reel, about loo years old, loaned
by Mrs. Mary w. Yarney, swifts for
the winding of yarn, an apple parer
and quantities of other articles that
went to make the old-time kitchen
complete, even to the cradle where in
this instance the children of John C..
Neil had been rocked. On the table
reposed an ancient jar, the property
of Mrs. y. w Clark and interesting
pewter ware. Another thing repre-
sentative of the times, was a spice jar
made at the Philbrick pottery, form
erly located near where the residence
of c. Davis Miller now stands.
In the adjoining room quantities OF
