pal of Hallowell High School, and for
The past four years has been principal OF

good opinion held of him there as an

bearing the date 1914, have arrived at
the Democrat table. As usual, we have
looked them over in the hope of finding
that there would be next year total
eclipse of the sun "visible at Augusta"
but alasl the best that is afforded us
next year is two partial eelipes, one of
anI tho Ofhar hyarv sliUhtb
one, Of the sun.

OF the game, from Paris standpoint at
least was the work of Sumner Davis on
the Bates team. BY playing In this
game be wins his college letter during
"a first term in college, feat that is &C
compli.bed By very few athletes. Iu the
important quarterback position he ran
the Bates team very smoothly aud Sc
Iected his plays with good judgment.
He did the punting, and did it well,
while bis splendid work with the for
ward pass meant much to his team. He
