The Augusta Water District is con-
templating the laying of a 16-inch
water main across the Kennebec river
to be used as an emergency main in
case of accident to the two mains
which now cross the river by way of
the Kennebec bridge While there Is
little or no danger that the bridge
will be carried away, if by any rea-
son the two mains should be rendered
useless for the time being the east
side of the river and also the Nation
al Home at Togus, which receives its
water supply from the Augusta sys-
TEN, would be shut off, and it is to
guard against this emergency that the
Water District desires to lay the ad-
ditional main. Supt Albee has been
sounding the river bed on the south
side Of the bridge and finds the bot
tom to be about all ledge, which Is
not just what is desired, and another
location will be sought.

ters From the time of the start UNI

WOMAN SUFFRAGE
TO BE ENACTED
IN DENMARK BILL

Copenhagen, Denmark, June o.
Woman suffrage is to be enacted in
Denmark and all property qualifica7
tons for electors of members of the
upper house abolished by a constitu-
tional amendment bill which passed
the lower house of the Danish Parlia-
ment today.
When the bill was sent again to the
upper house today. the Conservatives,
acting in accordance with their decis-
ion of June 8, absented themselves
from the House. The coalition of So
cialists, Radicals and Moderates in
favor of the bill was not sufficient to
carry the measure, as no vote of the
upper chamber is considered valid un-
less more than half the 66 members
participate.
Premier Zahle announced that the
government would advise the King to
dissolve the upper house in order that
a new chamber might be elected which
would act constitutionally.

bring these scattered and Independent
units into one harmonious whole Is the
first and most apparent object of our
gathering.
In the second place this personal con-
tact generates the electricity of inspira-

others are doing, makes one wish to do
better work himself If the fires on
other affairs burn more brightly than on
our own, then We should be spurred on
to heap the fuel higher and to tend it
with closer watch. Honest rivalry is
always wholesome

jects of common interest to obtain
clearer vision of the task that lies
around us and ahead, and of the best
methods by which it can be accom-

novel forms. New problems are creating
by the changing conditions of life In all
these questions our churches have a
lively interest, and to view them with the
proper perspective and to meet them sue
cessfully is task requiring wisdom, pa
