Courteous Auto Drivers.

The chauffeur, or motor man, as he will be called, is very often the subject of much discussion and sometimes or irrational abuse, says an automobile writer. Of course, there are black sheep in his profession as in every other but one is glad to place on record that black sheep were far more numerous five years ago than they are now. No one who observes without prejudice the behavior of motor car drivers in New York and elsewhere can help be- ing struck with the careful way in which private motor cars are now driven, the neatness and cleanliness of the men themselves, and the vast inn provement which has taken place in their general manners.
 Formerly, it was thought to be the highest mark of the profession that a motor man should be dirty in every respect. This state of thing, however has changed for the better. Occasion ally, specimen of the primevai driver is met with, and even now the habit of cigarette smoking when in charge of a car is supposed, by the younger and less intelligent men of the profession, to confer an air of knowledge coupled with disdain. In course of time this form of swagger will die out also
 The complete motor man must know and continually practice the courtesies of the road and learn it's manners and customs. He must be obseryant and realize that children hanging on to the backs of carts are liable to drop off suddenly, and run across his path. He must be on the lookout for pedestrians, stupid, drunk, or deaf, for wagons on the wrong side of dangerous corners, and to be prepared to find vehicles in charge of sleepy drivers who will often do the wrong act on waking. It will, therefore, be seen that the motor man to be really good has to be the best driver on the road and that the standard demanded must necessarily be high. To sum up, the perfect motor man, though he should possess as much knowledge of mechanics as possible should above all, be a considerate driver we'll versed in the manners and courtesies of the road and the habits of traffic. And in addition, he should try to be we'll ll-mannered as more and more motor car owners arc becoming con vinced that, besides knowledge, manners maketh the motor man.

prosperous one for Mrs. Clinton
Hamlitno, the proprietor of this de-
lightful summer hotel. The guests of
former years are coming back in
large numbers, while the numbers of

been very popular with the summer
visitors to Chebeague and has won
itself deservedly high reputation
amnog the hotels of Casco Bay.
Mr. and Mrs. John Allen Dudgeon,
of Boston, Mass, were among those
to register here last week. Mr.. and
Mrs. Dudgeon have been guests at

greatest regret that they are forced
to cut their visit short this year
They leave Sunday.

The Hill Crest, always among the
leaders Of the summer hotels in Cas-
CO Bay, is enjoying very fine year
this summer. The guests, too, are
enjoying themselves and 1t is small
wonder, when one thinks of the many
ways presented for them to amuse
themselves with. The dances, COM
ing twice a week, are as popular as
ever, while the tennis courts and
croquet grounds are much in favor
with the guests.
Among the arrivals of the past
week were Mr.. and Mrs. A. L. Bull
of Fitchburg, Mass. Previous to their
coming an anonymous letter had
told the guests here that Mr.. and
Mrs. Bull had just entered the happy
married state, so it was planned to

hotel was decorated in their honor
and every means was used by which
the congratulatory feelings of the
guests toward Mr. and Mrs. Bull
could be expressed. Thursday night

Bailey Island
Robjnhood Inn.

The Robinhood has for many years
borne deservedly high reputation
among the summer visitors to Maine
and every summer sees it filled with
the best sort of summer travellers.
Its ideal situation among the pines
OF the North End is among the most
charming along the Maine coast and
it is a wonderfully delightful place
in which to spend the summer
months. The guests at the Robin
hood always can find some form of
amusement with which to pass the
hours, trips to Gurnet, fishing
parties, cards and other forms of
pleasure having been as popular this
year as ever.
Mrs. T. Everett Thomas of Brook
lyn, N. Y, with Miss Edna l.. Thorn
as, arrived here last week. Mrs.
Thomas is one Of the oldest visitors
to the Robinhood, although prevent
ed from being here last summer, and
her coming is a most welcome one
to the guests who have also been
here in former years.
A departure that was much re-
GREETED last week was that of Mrs.
Charlotte Caravan and Miss Ruth
Caravan, who left last Sunday. Mrs
Caravan is a fine musician and de-
lighted the guests here several times
during her stay. This was their
second visit to the Robinsood, and it
was with much regret that they were
forced to leave after staying some
time longer than they had originally
intended.

The Seaside.

The Seaside has lost none of its
popularity of former years with the
summer visitors to Bailey Island.
Famous for the quality of its table,
it never has trouble in having its
register filled with names in each
succeeding year. Many of the cot
tagers like to dispense with the wor-
ries of summer housekeeping and
every year sees large numbers OF
these as regular boarders at the Sea
side. A better table is hardly to be
found anywhere in Casco Bay and the
quality Of the food leaves nothing to
be desired by the most critical.
Among the more recent arrivals at
the Seaside are Miss Bessie Peter
son and Miss Lillian E. Horberg OF
Worcester, Mass, who registered the
first part of this week for an extend
ed visit
Other recent arrivals include: Mr.
John F. Crowell, Worcester, Mass
