According to figures gathered here
there has been a bigger increase in
the purchase of new automobiles by
Skowhegan people than in any one
year since the invention. Over 200 au-
tOmobiles are now in town and orders
will increase this to many more. There
are over 25 different makes and the
increase has necessitated the building
of two new garages, the extending or
some Of the Old ones and the employ
ment of about 20 new men. According
to Investigations this town has more
cars for the population than any other
town in Maine.

daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. E. B. Row.

purchased five thoroughbred registered
yearling oxford ewes to add to her
flock. About a year ago she bought a
thoroughbred eve sheep and buck. Her
first sheep were Grade Oxfords, but
she is now gradually adding pure
bred stock and in time will eliminate
the grades entirely, as she believes the
pure bred stock more profitable.
Mrs. Emma Rand arrived, Tuesday

Johnny Evers, captain of the Boston
Braves, has quie a reputation for
picking winners in baseball. and gives
1t as his opinion that the Phillies will
beat the Red Sox. Evers, like most
others who share this opinion. believes
that Alexander alone can win the title
Of world champion for his team. This
is what Evers said in st. Louis the
other day: 1.-THE greatest pitcher In
baseball today will carry the burden
for the National League. And he'll hold
up his end. Player against player, the
Phillies may not compare with the
Red Sox. But in q world series 1t isn't
player against player. It is q team
against q team, biggest advantage be-
tween pitcher and pitcher. American
Leaguers are overlooking the most
important angle in this coming world
series. It is the home Of the Phillies-
the short right and left field fences.
That will give the Phillies q big adj
vantage when playing on their grounds
for the Boston pitchers win try to
keep them from hitting over the
fences. and the result win be that they
will be wild"
