ANOTHER WASTE UTILIZED.

The utilization of waste is one of
the quickest ways to wealth. The
manufacture of by-products out of
materials which would ordinarily be
discarded as worthless brings untold
rewards to the thoughtful man who
adds brains to his industry.
Hitherto. the packing houses who
have reduced waste to a minimum,
using practically everything except
the smell" have been the leaders of
economical manufacturing.
A great impetus was given to the
cotton industry when a use for cot
ton-seeds was discovered. Now the
stalk of the cotton plant has come
into its own. A commercial value has
been given to the stubble of the great
southern crop.
A 16-acre plant has been erected at
Greenwood, Miss, for the reclama-
tiOn of great annual wastage.
Among the valuable by-products
which will be manufactured are pa
per, gun-cotton, film material, ace
tone, alcohol, pyroxilene, artificial
silk and artificial leather

MEXICO COMPLICATED AGAIN.

The ever-present Mexican situation
is now being complicated by the Tex
as border troubles. Governor Fer
guson of Texas has telegraphed Pres
ident Wilson asking him to double the
number of Federal troops now on duty
in the Rio Grande Valley, saying: 81
do not overdraw the picture when
say that reign of terror exists on the
Mexican border. Any unusual occur
renee now would cause a disastrous
invasion of Texas from Mexico"
The need of an Iron man" in Mex
leo is very apparent.
Whether the appeal of the Pan
American Conference to the Mexicans
to get together will be effective or not
is a matter of conjecture The in
sistence of the Latin-American ma
tions on non-intervention by the Unit
ed States should satisfy General Car
rama as to the peaceful procedure of
the American government
At any rate, it is fully time for the
warning factions in Mexico to get to-
gether and settle their differences
with no more bloodshed.

UniversaIlst Demons tration Banquet.

OnIterSdll6t DEMONSTRATION banquet.
Although the rain coming at an inop-
perfume hour kept some away, some
thing like IT'S people partook Of fine
supper at the demonstration banquet Of
the Universalist parish at the church
dining hall Tuesday evening. The hall
and the tables had been prettily decorat-
ed with evergreen, cut flowers and
plants, and presented q very attractive
appearance. The men had charge of the
serving.
After the supper Rev. C. G. Miller ad-
dressed the assembly in behalf of the
church and its work, and after his brief
talk cards we're distributed to all pres
emit, pledging the signers, to the end
that the church might have its proper
spiritual life, to attend services regular.
ly as far as circumstances would permit,
and induce others who had no church
home to attend also. When these cards
we're collected and counted Mr.. Miller
announced that he was justified in ex-
pecting congregation of 124 the next
Sunday.
MIR. Miller then addressed himself to
the financial system of the parish, which
ne Sdiu WAS inadequate oOtn IN lts 10TH
and it's results. 1t was necessary to re-
new the pledges every year, and the
amount secured in this way was only
about $500. Pledge cards for weekly
contributions to the support Of the par
ish expenses were then distributed. By
the form of the card these pledges are of
indefinite continuance, with the provis-
ion that the pledge may be changed at
any time by giving notice to the treasur-
er or collector OF the parish. 1t was
also the understanding that the amount
Of the pledge is to be known only to the
treasurer of the parish.
Rapidly running over the cards after
they were collected, Mr.. Miller read off
the individual amounts, which were
placed ON black board by a. R. Carter,
and at the close rapid calculation show
ed that pledge income of S6S2.24 per
year had been secured. Mr.. Miller also
announced that few who were absent
were yet to make their pledges, and
with brief word of thanks he closed
the session.

years Mr.. Rowe has undergone great
deal from physical troubles. A few

and cared for him. His final illness was
of about three weeks duration.

Arab Patrol Ball,

Successful even beyond expectation
was the Arab Patrol drill and ball given
at Norway Opera House Thursday even
ing, 1t proving one of the most brilliant
aud enjoyable affairs ever held in town.
The attendance was very large, every
seat in the gallery being taken and
large number of dancers on the floor
when the drill began.
The drill given by sixteen men and the
captain, arrayed in their striking cos
tunes Of blue and yellow, was finely ex-
ecuted and showed the large amount of
work that had been put into 1t to make
it possible to go through the maneuvers
with such precision and unison. The
low overhanging gallery interfered some
what with the spear work, but the men
made the best of the conditions and
gave an exhibition that brought forth
merited applause, and of which any or
ganization would have reason to feel
proud.
The grand march led by c. S. Akers
followed Immediately, with Shaw's
orchestra of ten men furnishing excel
lent music. Behind Mr.. Akers came the
members of the Patrol with their ladies,
and then followed the large assembly ut
dancers, there being some over eighty
couples on the march while others went
on to the floor to dance after the march,
making party that filled the bali to its
capacity.
Many beautiful costumes were worn by
the ladies and the colors in keeping with
the styles of the present time showed
great variety, ranging from the ever
beautiful white and pale blue to some OF
the most striking shades in deep colors.
OF the out of-town guests the largest
number came from Lewiston and Au'
burn, there being over fifty from those
cities, but other neighboring towns, such
as Oxford, Harrison, Waterford, Wood
stock and Bethel, were we'll represented,
and all must have felt we'll repaid for
their efforts to be present. The present
method of conveyance, the automobile,
was the means by which large per cent
of the visitors reached the town.

HEBRON % %; NORWAY HIGH I.
In the game at the fair grounds Satur-
day afternoon Hebron Second defeated
Norway High for the second time this
season, although the difference in the
play of the two teams was not as great
as the above score would indicate. In
spite of the fact that Hebron was much
the heavier, they could not gain consist
entity through the Norway line, and
made practically all of their gains by
their open plays, forward passes, end
runs and trick plays, which the Norway
boys were slow to size up, and on which
they were fooled repeatedly.
NOrway's score also came as the result
Of long run. Hall, one of their ends, in
tercepting forward pass and by fast
running got clear field, covering dis
lance of nearly Is yards in making the
touchdown. Norway's fumbling also
was costly to them and several times
spoiled excellent chances to score. Near
the close of the game Norway showed
their best form and carried the ball near
ly the length of the field, having posses
sion of it on Hebron's eight yard line
when the whistle sounded that ended
the game,
