can find 1t, and then It is only in their own
minds. The man or woman whose primal
emotions are so gross, whose mentality Is
so abnormal, that they can see evil in
this picture are not to be taken into con-
sideration. AS a mother, as teacher in
the public schools for years, as a worker
for the uplifting of the human race, / say
unreservedly that every man, woman and
child should see this picture"
Which certainly leaves no uncertainty
as to Mrs. Foltz's feelings
This is what Mrs. Andrews herself has
to say about 1t:
81 am SO sorry Margaret has had to
meet with criticism and be misunderstood.
Had I not been i'll, delirious and in the
hospital 1t would not have occurred. How
ever, am proud she is such a sweet, good
child and possessed of such a true per-
spective of physical and artistic express
sion that the criticisms have not meant as
much to her as they might to one older
and having more understanding OF the
world"
Clearly she indicates that It was not for
a spectacle Of this sort that she had raised
her daughter
And as for little Miss Margaret, this ID
what she had to say:
always beautiful body, a perfect ply
steal condition, has seemed to be but the
expression of spirit. To be we'll, to be
happy, to be good-that is surely what ma
ture meant for children. When we bring
evil thought to the expression Of natures
handiwork we are harming our own prog
ress.
THE idea of the allegory may perhaps
have been taken from a very beautiful
painting. wonder If the model who posed
for that has been criticized as have been.
Don't you think, after ALL the pity is
that there are some people so evil-minded
that they find enjoyment in transposinR
all good, all beauty. all truth into wrong?
"All my life have been part Of Natures

would keep me hours in the sunlight, un-
clad. AS / grew older and lived far IN In

Joy was to ride OF tramp or fish absolutely

Physical exercise, music and the study

Mother has always taught me that a

CObuRN DEFEATS
N. C.I. IN CLOSE
GAME, 7 TO 6

Waterville, Me-, June 9.-(SpeciaD.
.Coburn defeated Maine Central In
stitute here Wednesday afternoon by
a score of to 6 in a game that was
marked by brilliant field, bonehead
playing, rank errors. fine hitting, fast
base running and in fact everything
that goes to make up a ball game.
Not the least important feature of
the game was the roofing Of the rival
camps. The boys from Pittsfield
came down with a band and about 200
supporters and they never gave up
until the last man was out. The Co.
burn supporters were equally as noisy
and the grand stand was certainly no
place for a nervous man. The Coburn
team started off like easy winners,
garnering one run in the first inning
and three in the second and getting
to Harvey in great shape but the
Maine Central team made a shift in
the next inning sending White to the
mound and he had the Coburn heavy
hitters eating out of his hand and if
his support had not blown up in the
sixth and seventh innings would have
gone by without being scored upon. In
the meantime the Maine Central boys
were gradually solving Fagan's deliv-
cry and in the three final innings
some good hitting, coupled with err
rors quickly put them in the running.
Had they been willing to take a few
more chances on the bases the score
might have been different. Although
a large number of errors were charg-
ed up to the players on both teams
the most Of them were excusable, be-
ing on hard chances. The score:
