DON MORRISON, NAMES
MASTER OF THE VIOLIN

John d. Rockefeller, Jr., with his art
at Abeyton lodge on the Pocantlco
Hills estate. Mr.. Rockefeller was also
a listener and in the course Of con-
versation with him Don Morrison
learned that he had studied the violin
under the eminent teacher. Richard
Arnold. Mr.. Rockefeller is considered
very good violinist Morrison says
he found Mr.. Rockefeller very DEM
ocratic man. a most pleasing person to
meet. Young Nelson Rockefeller, one
of the probable financial giants of the
future, was particularly pleased with
Morrison's own composition. The
Little Dutch Soldiri."
And by the way. the compositions
played on that visit 10 the Rockefeller
lodge were largely his own; 1t was a
composer at the violin recital. Don
Morrison's compositions are altogeth-
er original, just as he is. He himself
is endowed with a personality which
savors Of genius and at the same time
remains cordial and normal, and he
seems happily to lack some of the
marks typical of eminent musicians.
He delights to play for anyone, any
time, anywhere and will neither fuss
about his accompanist nor insist upon
the impossibility. of entertaining three
or four friends without <an accompa-
mist. Further than that. he does not
object to listening to all sorts of music
and musicians though many degrees
below his attainment and believes that
even ragtime music has right on
earth just as the limerick and hum
orous poem have a right TO ink. His
compositions are free from time-woril
marks and signaliZe the wholesome
note Of companionship and good will
without professional eccentricities Of
the master violinist who CONCEIVED
them.

Band OF TRICKY
CYPsIES PLY TRADE
At DRIVEN ON

Bath. Me-, May ia band Of
gypsies. composed of eight teams, with
II horses and SO men, women and chill
dren, arrived in Bath early Tuesday
evening and departed Wednesday,
after a somewhat strenuous visit. The
comely and otherwise young women
piled their trade along the road, with
the result that two of them were ar
rested by Sheriff Oliver for the lar
ceny of $50 from AlonZo r. Donnell
Of West Bath and smaller sum from
George w. Leavitt of the Blind Cross
ing gatehouse. They We're released
on $3.50 bail each and two horses
were taken in charge by the officers as
security. In court Wednesday morn
ing, one of the women was discharg-
ed, no evidence appearing against her
and the case against the other was
dropped, owing to the fact that the
Gypsy chief had the night before Wis
tied both men who lost money and
refunded it, also paying the costs Of
the case and for the keeping Of the
seized horses. The band was then
ordered out Of town and soon crossed
the ferry. on the way, the chief said,
to st. John. n. B.
The chief. who gave the name Of
Thomas Johnson. appeared to be well
supplied with money. He showed a
withdrawal card from Gothic Lodge
A. F. and NJ, in Manitoba and claim
ed to be an honest man. The crowd
seemed to be very familiar with court
customs and proceedings.
Postmaster Hyde also had an expo.
rience with the same band He was
with a party of ladies on a walking
trip at New Meadows and left the
party to go up to Jake's for a pack
age of potato chips. When near the
Inn, he was overtaken by Gypsy girl
who started in making an acquaint-
ance by asking for a match. She then
grasped his hand and commenced q
lively persuasion to allow her to tell
his fortune About this time the rest
of the crowd Of gypsies came along
and Mr.. Hyde had some difficulty in
breaking away from the fair lady who
was 10th to allow her intended victim
to escape.

The State Board Of Charities ami
Corrections is fast being recognized
by overseers Of the poor all over the
State as a place to which they may
write for information and advice in
relation to the many and varied
problems which their work involves.
and one of the tasks which the Board
has found ready at hand for it to do is
to educate the public to the impor-
lance of electing as overseer, men #
farseeing Judgment, who will en-
deavor to see not only that poor relief
when given is suitable and adequate,
but that it is rendered under such con-
ditions that it will, if possible, be only
temporary, and that the individual Or
family, instead of becoming a chronic
dependent, is encouraged and assisted
to overcome present difficulties and in
the future become self-supporting.
Realizing that very many towns
elect an entirely new board of over
seers each year, and that these men
are usually selected for their general
qualifications as selectmen and busi-
ness managers of the towns and who'll
" without reference to their expert
ence and qualifications as overseers IF
the poor. the Secretary of the State
Board has sent out to each new board
of overseers this year soon after it
assumed Office a letter in which was
enclosed the following:
Suggestions to overseers Of the Poor.
These suggestions are made after
careful study Of the methods of the
most successful overseers Of this ami
other states.
Whenever a claim for relief is made
upon overseers of the poor for the
benefit of any persons or families OF
persons claiming to be poor and in
distress, it is the duty of the overseers
of the poor to carefully investigate the
circumstances of such poor persons,
so as to ascertain their legal settle
ment. their physical condition Of
sickness or health. their present ana
previous occupation, their ability and
capacity for labor. their names and
ages and the ability and capacity
for labor of all members of their
family. and if they are found ID
he in distress the cause Of their con-
dition if il can be ascertained. The
overseers of the poor should also in
auire as to the family relationships of
roor persons for whose benefit claims
for relief are made, and as far as
possible, should ascertain whether
such persons have relatives able and
willing to assist them
Whenever the oVerseers ascertain by
investigation that any poor persons or
families require assistance they should
furnish to them only such temporary
aid as may be necessary for the RELIEF
OF immediate and pressing suffering;
before any further final or permanent
relief in, any case is given, the over
seers should consider whether distress
can be relieved by other means than
an expenditure of town funds.
If the poor persons applying are in
good health, or if any members Of
their family are so, the overseers
should insist that those able TO labor
shall seek employment, and they
should refues to furnish any aid until
they are satisfied that the persons
claiming help are endeavoring to find
work for themselves. The overseers
in such cases, should make all possibl,
effort to secure employment for the
able bodied in the town where they
