One Hundred Million Red Cross Seals
Being Printed for 1913

Orders for printing 100 900, 900 Red
Cross Christmas seals for use during
the holiday season this year have al
ready been placed and preparations
for the sale are we'll under way ac-
cording to an announcement made
from the New York campaign head
quarters recently.
Over $4O.000.0 900 worth of seals were
sold in 1912, gain of nearly % per
cent over the previous year Be
cause of the deep interest in the anti
tuberculosis movement for which the
sePls are sold, the American Red
Cross and The National Association
for the Study and Prevention of Tu-
berculosis who conduct the sale, hope
to reach the 50,000000 mark this year
netting 100000 for the prevention OF
consumption
A radical departure from previous
seals in the shape and character of
the design will be instituted this
year. The seal will be rectangular
in shape, l u inches wide and 1 inch
deep. The center of the design will
depict Santa Claus with his eight
reindeer dashing across field OF
snow, and the border will be a bril-
liant red and green decoration OF
poinsettias and holly, the Red Cross
emblem appearing on either side.
The design was drawn by c. J.
Budd of New York, the we'll known
illustrator. who was awarded a prize
of 500 for his drawing. The second
prize $50 was awarded to h. Foster
Worthley of New York and the third
to Miss Hazel de Berard of Brooklyn
Miss Sara B. Hill of New York was
given honorable mention.
Distribution of the seals will be
started about September 1st and by
December LIST it is expected that the
entire 100000 will be distributed
If more are needed, an additional sup
ply will be printed. In addition to
the seals themselves, advertising ma
terial to the amount of several mil
lion pieces is also being prepared.
The campaign this year will be organ
lied in almost every city and town OF
the United States and no less than
100000 agents will give their services
to the work.

Finding Of Valuable Pearls

been found by youngster and one Of
them was sold for $50 while the last
find is a gem which is reported to be
worth between $500 and $1,000. Very
few people know of the whereabouts
of the brook and the matter is being
kept quiet by those who are wise.

Narrowly Escaped Death

Albert Piper one of the employees
at the mill of the Augusta Lumber
Co, narrowly escaped death the other
afternoon, by being carried around a
shaft at the mill. He was engaged
in picking up wood from the floor
near a low piece of shafting, and in
reaching over the shaft to pick up a
piece of wood on the other side, his
shirt caught on the shaft in such a
way that he was carried around it
twice before he was released by the
tearing of the shirt. He was taken
to his home at the corner of Franklin
and Oxford streets, where it was
found that although no bones were
broken he was badly shaken up and
bruised, and will probably be disabled
for some little time. 1t is understood
that he had been warned not to reach
over the shafting on which he was In
jured

Book

Skowhegan's High School owns a rare
and very old copy of the THE New
England Primer" 1t was formerly
owned by Mrs. Lcighton's great
grandfather. and as there is no date
printed within it is without doubt
many years over the hundred mark.
1t is what We might call today, a
west pocket edition, being only five
inches long and four inches wide. On
the first page is the somewhat odd and
unique heading or preface:
"The New England Primmer"
An Easy Guide to The Art OF Reading
Adorned with Cuts
and
Catychism.
1t was made by the Massachusetts
Sabbath School Society, No. 10, Corn
hill. Boston. 1t contains an account
of THE Burning of Mr.. John Rogers
also numerous odd pictures, most OF
which are taken from the Bible. The
alphabet is impressed upon the juren-
lie mind by the following rhymes;
In Adams fall
We sinned all.

Xerxes the Great did Die,

Remarkable Case Of Dam Building

"One of the most remarkable feats
of dam building in the State of Maine
is Just nearing completion on farm
in the town of Phillips" says the
Franklin Journal. 1T is moi the
magnitude of the dam. neither is ii
any unusually difficult engineering
problem which had to be solved that
makes the construction so remarkable.
II is nevertheless, an unusual work
and one that probably in some par
ticulars has never been equaled in
this State 1t is entirely the work
of one man and a man, too, in his
Goth year. He has built solid and
substantial dam, unaided and alone.
He has not had the advantage even
of horse to move the large amount
of earth which the construction re-
quired. And further, all of the dirt
that has gone into the dam has been
carried out on the structure a pail
full at a time. Up on the farm of Fred
Ross in Phillips there is large and
constantly flowing spring. 1t is stu
ated in gully in the side hill and one
day while looking over that locality,
George Thompson, the father-in-law
of Mr.. Ross and who resides with his
daughter and her husband. was i'm
pressed with the idea that by build
ing a dam across the gully the water
which has been going to waste for
untold years could be made into a
pond and that such a pool of water
at that point would be a great con-
venience."
