President Lemuel H. Muriin of Boston
University speaking at Peoples Temple
saw hope for the spread of prohibition as
a result of the European war.
Perhaps" he said, zone of the whole
some lessons civilization will learn from
this terrible war is the utter folly and
wastefulness of the drink traffic and the
effectiveness of prohibition as means OF
doing away with it's evils" He expressed
the belief that the present prohibition or
the sale of vodka in Russia would be con-
tinued after peace had been declared.
Rev. Francis E. Clark, president of the
Worlds Christian Endeavor Union, stated
at Auburndale that Christian Endeavor-
ers were fighting in each of the warning
armies and uavies, believing that their
cause was the righteous one. Eventually.
he believed, the desire of Christian young
people for friendship would have much to
do with bringing the world together In
enduring bonds of fellowship.

JAPANESE ADVANCE
IS NOT OPPOSED
Proceeding Along Railway to
Tsinan-Chinese Offer to Seize
Road and Expel Germans Re-
jected-American Consul Or
dered to Leave Tsing-Tau

Pekin, Oct. 5.-(Monday) 2.15 A.
M.-Without further diplomatic con-
troversy, the Japanese are proceeding
along the railway to Tsinan. Their
troops at Wei-Hsien who occupied the
station there have been reinforced.
The Chinese have not withdrawn from
the line, but are not opposing the ia
panese march westward.
One Chinese was killed by the
Japanese when they took over the Wei
Hsfen station. Further similar incl
dents are feared, though the Chinese
government has not withdrawn it's in
structions to the commanders not to
oppose the japanese.
The Chinese foreign Office proposed
to Japan that China assume control
of the railway, which is owned by
Germans, expel all German employees
from the district and guarantee that
there would be no transfer of the
road until the war was ended The
Japanese have claimed that it was
necessary for them to occupy the rail-
way. as otherwise it would be used by
the Germans for the transportation of
war supplies to Using Tau. The Jap
anese, however, rejected the proposal.
The American state department, up
on the the advice of the American
minister to China, DR.. Paul Samuel
Reinech, who arrived in Pekin last
Wednesday, has instructed Willis r.
Peck. the American consul at Using
Tau, to withdraw from the Kiao Chow
district. The legation sent a message
to this effect to Mr.. Peck by wireless
DR.. Peck had earlier expressed a wish
to remain at his post during the Jap
anese attack on the German leased
possession.

Gardiner, Me, Oct 4.-(SpeciaD Gar
diner High won its first real game played
this season on Saturday at Quimby field
when they defeated the husky Bates Sec
ond team by a to score. Although the
score indicates that the game might have
been close, II was apparent to an observer
that the local schoolhoys played rings
around the collegians. The home team
displayed some remarkable work of open
football, mingled with line plunging tao
tics. Each time on wide swinging end
runs the Gardiner back was afforded the
most perfect interference. Several runs,
varying from 10 to % yards. were pulled
off, the collegians being caught mapping
on several occasions by the open attack
which was bewildering and unfathomed.
A. Brisk showed up in his expected
good form and aided materially by his
splendid blocking in interference as well
as breaking up Bates attempted forward
passes. The Bates team was unable TO
gain firm down once during the after
noon, resorted to the forward pass sew
eral times, only one. however, proving
successful and netted about six yards.
Gardiner worked this successfully three
times and made an average gain of Y
yards.
jim Stenier was back in the game for
Gardiner after his layoff on account Of
injury, and his massive form could be
seen at all times in the thick of the fray.
Emerson and p Brisk starred on the de-
fensive The defence of the visitors was
not very stubborn except when the Gardi-
ner lads advanced the ball within the
shadow of their goal and were held for
downs. Mccain, Bates right guard, was
injured in the first scrimmage and emery
ed with a fractured collar bone. He was
conveyed to Lewiston.
The game started with Bates kicking
off to Gardeners 20-yard line Two runs
by Brisk and Houston of 10 and 90 yards
respectively brought the ball to the CEN
ter Of the field After failing to gain for
three downs Brisk punted to Bates 30
yard line. Bates then punted to the CEN
ter of the field. From here Gardiner
made steady gains and advanced the ball
to within nine yards of the goal Then
for the first time Bates put up pretty
defence and the High school boys gaining
