Fresh Air and Health

Mental work calls an unusual supply
of blood to the brain; the process OF
digestion calls the blood to the stomach.
Brain work Immediately after hearty
meal often causes indigestion because
the brain has first call on a supply OF
blood that should be helping the stomach.
q Wherever, in the economy of the body
work is to be done there is a demand for
bright. red blood. Thin blood or blood
dark with impurities will not do because
it is tie oxygen carried by the blood that
does the work and oxygcn-bearing blood
is bright and red. This DEMONSTRATING
oxygen is taken up by the blood from the
air which 1t meets in the lungs. Hence
the great need of fresh air every hour of
the day and night. But fresh air is use
less il the blood cannot take UP the oxy
gen which it gives. DIR. Williams Pink
Pills enable the blood to take up more
oxygen because they increse the part of
the blood that carries the oxygen. This
corrects the lassitude, palpitation of tie
heart, shaky nerves and the pallor that
are the results of thin, impure blood.
You must have pure. rich blood to en-
joy complete health. A booklet, Building
Up the Blood" will be sent free on re-
quest by the DR.. Williams Medicine Co.,

EFFICIENCY OF FIRE
DRILL SAVES LIVES
BUCKSPORT PUPILS.

Bucksport, Me-, Jan. 294-Because of
their proficiency in the FIRE drill and
the GOODNESS of their teachers, 10
school children marched in an order
ly manner out of the State street
schoolhouse after the structure was
in flames Wednesday forenoon. Not a
child was injured and not once did
the orderly lines of wide-eyed chill
dren break, as they pressed forward
to the outer air and safety. The
schoolhouse itself, which is opposite
the Catholic church., is total loss.
The damage is estimated at $4,000 and
is fully covered by insurance.
The school was full of young pupils
when the flames were first discovered
Wednesday morning. The primary
school taught by Miss Guida Rollins
and containing so children, occupied
the first floor, while above, was the
intermediate grade in charge of Miss
Abbott, which numbered so.
The fire caught in the cellar near
the furnace although the exact man
ner in which the flames first started
is unknown. 1t smouldered unnoticed
for a. time and then Miss Rollins sud-
denly saw volume of smoke pour
ing up through the cracks in the floor.
Walking quickly over to where the
smoke arose, she could hear the roar
ing of the flames beneath her.
Miss Rollins, without outwardly be-
traying excitement, rushed upstairs to
where Miss Abbott was listening to a
recitation and acquainted her with the
situation. Then the two teachers gave
the fire drill signal and the pupils.
many of them at first believing that
the drill was but part of the days
exercises, formed lines and common
ced filing out.
For the first time since its arrival
several months ago, the Bucksport
fire engine was given thorough try
ing out. But it and the hand engine
did effective work. But the fire had
gained too much Roadway before it
was discovered to be checked and, in
spite Of everything the fire fighters
could do, the building was totally de-
stroyed.
1t Is expected that the question of
rebuilding it will come up at town
meeting in March.

IL would recommend a law govern
ing the weight of bread" states Depu-
ty State Sealer Levi S.. Pencil of
Portland, in his annual report which
was presented Thursday to John A.
Roberts, the commissioner of agricul-
ture and State sealer. "a loaf of bread
for sale should weigh two pounds. and
one-half loaf of bread should weigh
one pound. tas a-H A
Continuing, the report says:
Up to 1911 the State treasurer was
the State sealer. The law at that time
was changed making the commissioners
of agriculture the State sealer and a
set of standards was purchased. AS no
provision for money was made to en-
force the weights and measure law,
very little was done in the matter I'M
til the year 1913, when the law was
changed, allowing two or more cities
or towns to combine to purchase seal
er's outfit and an appropriation of
$1,000 year was made by the State for
the years 1918 and 1914.
When we started on this work on
the first of March, 1918, there were not
a dozen cities or towns in the State
equipped so a sealer could. properly
perform his duties. At the present time
we have some 400 cities, towns and
plantations out of 500 which have the
proper equipment to carry On this work.
THE greatest difficulty we have to
meet is the changing of seaIers every
year, which, think, is all wrong. Aft
-er sealer has had one years expert
ence, he is better qualified to perform
his duties and every succeeding year
makes him more capable. Therefore, I
think 1t would be better if all the seal
ers were put under Civil Service and
held office during their efficiency
AS the work of the office has kept
me confined here at Augusta most of
the time, 1 have not been able to visit
as many local sealers as / wished. l
have visited some % different cities
and towns and found the local sealers
taking hold Of their work in very good
shape.
The law requires that the local seal
ers shall make a report to the State
sealer, on or before the first day of
November of each year, giving de-
tailed account of their work for the
year. AS 1t was so late in the year be-
fore large number of the cities and
towns received their outfits, we have
not had as many reports as we shall
expect the coming year. The law in re-
gard to sealers making a report is
compulsory and we hope next year that
We shall be able to make a much better
report. Local seaiers from SO cities and
town have made reports.

Petition to Close
Lovejoy Pond.

A hearing was held Thursday before
the state Commission of Inland Fish
cries and Game on the petition OF cit
liens of Albion and vicinity to have
Lovejoy pond closed to fishing. At a
recent session of the Legislature, AL
bion pond, together with several other
bodies of water in that vicinity were
opened to ice fishing after having been
closed for five years. Both sides or
the matter were discussed at the
hearing. but the commissioners made
no decision.
The, residents of Albion claim that
they do not enjoy the same privileges
as the Waterville fishermen; that they
have only one pond in their vicinity
and that the fish should be protected
for summer fishing, while the residents
of waterville and vicinity have sew
eral ponds to go to.
The remonstrants claim that the
pond is not stocked with trout, salmon
or bass and is not suitable waters for
such stocking, and that the new reg
ulations have not had a fair trial and
should not be set lightly aside.

Hearing on Kineo-
Jackman Road,

A hearing was held Thursday aft
ernoon before the State Highway
Commission in the Senate Chamber on
the proposed road from Jackman to
Kineo via Long Pond. The case of
those favoring the construction of this
road was presented by William r.
Pattangall of Waterville. In his pre-
sentation of the case he spoke of the
great benefit acruing to summer Wis
itors, although he did not favor
building such road for these people
alone. And he spoke of the excellent
farm and timber lands all along the
way OF the proposed route.
Many residents from along the
line of the proposed route were on
hand at the hearing and spoke of the
benefit OF the road. And the general
opinion seemed to be that the coun-
ty would be willing to cooperate in
the road construction.
c. S. Humphrey of Madison, a civil
engineer, who drew up the plans Of
the proposed road, showed on the map
that the route followed the general
contour of the Moose River Valley.
And near the close of the hearing
Governor William T. Haines spoke as
follows on the matter:
This is an old proposition which
has been before the county commits
sioners of Somerset county for long
time and has always been opposed by
the land owners.
1T is now pretty well understood by
all; they have been trying to get q
highway for years, and this is one Of
the finest spots in the State of Maine
to be developed for agricultural pur-
poses. 80
Il notice some Of the papers have
suggested that this was scheme to
get some of the highway money to
build piece Of road 100 miles long
through from Skowhegan to Kineo..

of the road at either end would be 81
miles from Skowhegan from the route
through to Parlin Pond. The road

valley. the nearest terminal would be
n miles from Skowhegan and the
other one about go and whoever gave
out such statement as that ought
to study the geography Of the State
of Maine. s-
ALSO want to state that the pro-
posed road does not involve in any
way the expenditure Of a dollar of
the so-called; bond issue money or
highway money which the State
might pay out for another purpose of
highway expenditure. / assume that
the land owners will give the land
damages and / suppose the Kineo Co,
and other owners along the way will
contribute largely towards the build
ing of the road, and 1t Is not an ex-
pensive job. at the most. 1 am not
an advocate of either road, but i
don't want the people of the State
Of Maine to think 1t is a scheme to
get away from the department any
funds whether bond money or any
other money from the State treasury
to be used for improving highways
in the State.
