There was hearing before the iegisla-
tive committee on fish and game last We'd
nesday afternoon on the resolve in favor
Of a State fish hatchery at Tunk pond
The plan has the support OF Chairman
Wilson, of the fish and game commission,
and of Hon. L. T. Carleton, formerly one OF
the commissioners. Representative Harri-
man, of Cherryfield, is looking after the
interests of his section in favor of the re-
solve, which he introduced. With this
backing, it looks as if the resolve would
go through. Mr.. Carleton says Tunk
pond offers one of the best natural loca-
tons for hatchery he has ever seen.

walking home from the office or lifting
dumbbells. To say Exercise is bene-
fetal" is a very inaccurate remark and
a very dangerous belief. 1t is neces-
sary to distinguish between right and
wrong exercise. AS often as not big
muscles in arms, chest or legs are a
calamity, for they actually shorten life
unless the vital organs are proportion
ately developed to take care of them.
Men are constantly wearing out their
hearts aud arteries with some form of
violent work they call exercise" II

for these men to go by is TO take no
form of exercise after they are grown
up that they cannot keep on with until

Women and Tea In japan.

just what grade of tea is being served
to her-Uji, Mikado or a hundred 9th

by taste at least a dozen blends" in a
brand that has that many or more.
Such accomplishments are partly a
matter of inheritance and environment,
for Japan is a country where tea has
been raised and used for centuries.

was regarded as an outward sign of
sanctity. DR.. Echard, writing in the
early eighteenth century, remarks:
''Then it was they would scarcely let
a round faced man go to heaven. If

Notes
BY W. H. q.

What are you going 10 do next vaca-
ton time? Generally speaking the
average travelling man don't know at
this early date whether he will even
get a vacation or not. Not so with
Earl Holmes-better known perhaps
at Pete Holmes. He has been having
visions of an ideal vacation for him
self and his running mate Sally" that
was some dream. The scheme was
10 buy prairie schooner, fully equip
ped, and with trusty rifle and three
"houn dawgs" strike out south and
go and go, and when he had gone as
far as time would permit then sell out
his paraphernalia and come home via
a pullman. Beautiful plans but about
as feasible as going 10 the moon. So
thought Shorty Shreeve at least. How
ever to make some realism in the
scheme for Pete, Shorty bought a toy
schooner and three toy "houn dawgs"
and presented them TO him for Christ
mas. Was he tickled? Well almost
to death. Thought il was just what
he was looking for, even thought the
size was all right and practices daily
7
wife in the wagon and sings the
"houn dawg" song, while he plans and
! plans for the big trip now that he
thinks his outfit is complete. Really
il is a pitiful case OF mental illusion,
and Pete's friends ought to try and
get his mind diverted from his hobby
or something serious may result.
The smoker was success last Sat
urday night in every respect-with
the possible exception of the number
in attendance. The entertainment was
good and the lunch provided by the
arrangement committee was fine. Re
| ferring to the size of the crowd: The
press has heard expressions from
members who do not take an interest
| in the social advantages offered by
! the post, to the effect that certain &C
tive members are guilty of saying that
some members only came up when
there was something TO eat. If any
member of Post c is guilty of serious
ly thinking or saying anything of this
kind about that part of the member
! ship that does not frequent the rooms,
it is entirely wrong, and is done with,
! out the knowledge or approval of the
officers of the Post. A member who
will so express himself is doing and
| talking in a way not in harmony with
the intent of the Post and such ex.
pressions have no place in the grand
scheme of T. p A ism. Every member
of Post c is welcome to headquarters
at all times and on all occasions, and
especially on nights when entertain
ments are being given. These enter
! tainments are gotten up for the whole
membership and the luncheons are
prepared in the same way, and every.
one is expected to come up and par.
take. ANY member who expresses
any other kind of sentiment is ex.
pressing something that does not exist
in Post c as a body. Come up all OF
you as often as possible.

enactments and established usages
are hereby confirmed.
