The Star is not so sure that the
shooting of Benton by Villas orders
win bring on war at once. If Villa 5
faction of Mexicans had a seaport,
there is no doubt but that the Brit
Esh would occupy it at once, and pos
sibly send a punitive expedition aft
er Villa. But, except along the AM
erican border, the constitutionalists
are surrounded by federal territory.
Great Britain, of course, is not go
ing To ask permission to send troops
thru Texas, nor is it likely that the
British government will try to force
the United States into war for such
a comparatively small incident. 1t
is reasonably certain, however, that
Great Britain will keep the matter
well in mind and insist on repara-
ton from Mexico as soon as re-
sponsible government is established.

all Democrats regardless as to whe-

ity for Senator Fletcher. This is not
true. Mr.. Holt is also exceedingly
anxious to elect a board of county
commissioners of Duval county. Just
why / do not know, but the tax-pay-
ers do not want Mr. Holt to elect
board so important as this.
Mr.. Holt has said, and several of
his friends have called at the office
of Dixie and said, that Mr. Holt had
started another campaign for the liq-
uor interests and did not know that
the present registration could not be
used for any such purpose, and as
soon as he discovered this he drop

injustice to Mr.. Stockton and to Dix

city council for its investigation of
Mr.. Hollis methods.

MASON TRUSTEES.
Dean Arnold, Rev. n. r. Huse and
Hon. Carl {. Miiliken Elected Men,
bers of the Board at Annual Meet
inq.
(Springvale Advocate

tSDTiHS vale AoNotatC'y
At the meeting of the board OF
Trustees of the Mason Institute, last
week, Dean Sarah Louise Arnold OF
Simmons College was elected to serve
four years, Rev. Herr" F. Huse was
elected to serve for a term of three
years and Hon. Carl f. Milliken OF
Island Falls was made the sixth mem
Der of the board to serve two years
This action was in line with the plan
outlined some time ago to add to the
personnel of the board and while ii
had been previously announced that
Miss Arnold would be made one OF
the trustees Of the school, her formal
election was at this meeting. The
original board of Trustees, composed
of Harmon G. Allen, Hon. George A.
Goodwin and Samuel d. Hanson, by
virtue of their position as trustees, OF
the Mason estate, are permanent
members of the board. The board OF
six trustees, at subsequent meetings,
may elect additional members II they
see fit.
Miss Arnold's election has been
effected with her consent to become
an active member of the board. Her
experience and knowledge OF Voca-
tional school management makes
her a most valuable asset to the or
ganization. Having conducted the lar
gest school of this kind in Ne" Eng

land with such measure of success
that Simmons College has become
famed throughout the country, her
advice and counsel will be of inestim-
able value to the school. Dean Arnold S
record in this line of work is already
familiar to readers of the Advocate.
Rev. Henry f. Huse, who becomes
a member of the board for three years,
has been one of the mainstays of the
Institute since the plan Of it's founda-
ton was first conceived.
When the plan of starting voca-
tional school was first suggested, Mr..
Huse devoted a great deal of time and
some expense to working out the de-
tails and, in many other ways, assisted
the board of trustees in their work.
Hon. Carl L. Milliken, who becomes
an active member of the board, is
president of the Maine Senate, also
president of the Maine State Confer
ence of Free Baptist Churches. Mr..
MlIliken is we'll known here and in
almost every other part of the State.
With such an organization behind
it, Nasson's prospects and POSSIBLE
tiles are almost unlimited. It's growth
in the past year has been an eyeopener
tc the State and country. Its work,
under the direction of Dean Louisa l.
Pryor, has begun to count for more
than had been expected in so short
time. The graduates of the two-year
course, who left the Institute last
Spring, have accounted for themselves
in such a manner as to awaken the
pride of all citizens of Maine who have
kept in touch with her first and only
vocational school for women.
The results accomplished within the
short time as we'll as the phenomenal
increase in the student list have been
largely due to Miss Pryor's ability and
constant effort.
The only visible obstacle to the In
stitute's rapid growth is the necessity
of a dormitory Even in its third year
of existence, the matter of finding
suitable boarding places for the
students mas been a hard task, and
should next years enrolment SHOW
an increase in proportion to this
wears a home for students will be an
absolute necessity. Plans are being
formulated to meet this pressing need
and Mr.. Allen of the board has stated
TO the Advocate that he believed
that some way could be provided so
that building could be available the
coming year.
