a marked success in guiding and pro-
 tecting the poor borrower of small sums against the possible eNtOrtions of loan sharks. Massachusetts, the first in the field with a system of this sort, has been followed by saV- eral other states which have recog
 nized the advantage of making as easy and safe as possible the borrow ing conditions for people confronted by a financial emergency or unfor- tunately involved in debt With slight resources for it's cancellation.
 The law relates to leans of under three hundred dollars of that class that is forced outside the banks and regular financial institutions and that must expect. because of the venture some character, to pay an unfOrtu- nately large rate of interest. The agencies to which they have recourse are obliged to be licensed by the state, at an expense of one hundred dollars, and come under the super vision of the state. There are in OD- eratiCn at the present time about one hundred and twenty such loan of 1 fees, and in the year ending with

can do to keep even with a movement of earth. The most modern DreaC- nOughts of the United States fleet have beams of 96 and 97 feet, giving a margin of only three feet through the channel. This is regarded as cut ting things pretty fine and a majori- ty of the canal officials do not be- liove it advisab ble to expose vessels representing $15,O00,0oO each to dam age by sending them through the Gull cbra cut under such conditions Or dinary navigation is but little men aced in using the canal, as the larger number of the merchant vessels pas sing through are less than 10000 tons each, while the latest battle ships are from 25,oo0 to 3o,ooo tons displacement.

September loans were made to the surprisingly great amount of four and a quarter million dollars, aggregating with expenses five and a third mil- lions.
 The expense of getting into debt and operating ones affairs upon | a loan basis is suggested in the fact that borrowers paid in the course. of the year a total of charges amounting to four hundred and sixty-eig thousand dollars. But the stress of the poor is suggested in the loans requested rang ing down to thirty-f1Ve cents. The number of borrowers is not stated, but there are indications that many of the borrowers are WalloWing in debt borrowing from one office to repay previous loans, all the facts in the case and relating to the borrow CT being kept on file in the office of the supervisor. There is, however, al- so an encouraging evidence of deter imitation on the part of borrowers to get upon an independent footing again, touching stories of repayment of debt week by week coming to light
 Interest and significance there is in the fact that Seven-tenthS OF all the loans of the year were unsecured that is, to borrowers with no security to offer, except an evidence of per- sonal honesty and reliability. The need of such, to be accommodated, probably rarely except through these loan offices, suggests their value, un- der such supervision the law of this state affords, in tiding over emergencies or in keeping afloat upon their own responsibility those who might otherwise be forced to recourse to charity, with the sacrifice of self respect and the tendency to pauper- ization. It is the function of the Of flee of the supervisor to follow up hardship cases, that the ignorant and unfortunate may be saved from their state so far as possible and get the full benefit of the laws protection Properly administered, the system must work to the advantage of the people. But observation of it's work ing sounds a warning to keep out of the path that leads to debt.

That was nice thougnt-giviug the
old soldiers place in the procession.
Automobiles were furnished for their
use and every respect due the veterans,
few in number we regret, was paid them.
The rain was a disappointment and no
doubt kept great many away. Had the
morning been fair, it would have been a
record celebration for attendance. AS it
was the crowd numbered from 1900 to
1000.
To the mem bers of the Sterling Hose
Co. great credit is due for the success of
the affair. They made up splendid
fered, it would have been a great sue
cess, financially aud otherwise.
Will Barrows sustained his old-time
and well-known reputation as a fMr and
square umpire. In all of his decisions
the spectators as we'll as the players &C.
| guessed. His quick decisions moved
the games along at great pace.
George Gilmore, the drum major of the
jeff band, was ''the observed of all OBJ
servers" His erect figure and long flow
| ing beard, coupled with his majestic
tread, stately bearing ann skilful manip-
ulation of the baton, made him an ideal
| leader.
Ned Holmes was an ideal marshal.
His stentorian voice could be heard by
all, and when he made an announcement
everybody stopped, looked and lis
tened" His aides were a holiday lot
and at the bead of the procession they
moved along majestialy.
The ball game, which was a most in
teresting one, was between johnson and
Lowell, and was a good game through
errors and did some good playing. There
we're rooters for both sides. The score
was IL to in favor of the visitors.
Music, good and plenty of it, was fur
nished by the Jacksonville Band, c. E.
Labounty leader, and the johnson Band,
with DIR. Peaks at it's head. Notwitb-
standing the torrents of rain in the morn
ing both bands gave balcony concerts,

Some Celebration Notes
The fireworks were good.
DR.. Peaks "Wooden Horse Pillow
| Fight" made lots of sport.
Sterling Hose Co. is entitled to great
credit for the success of the affair.
The decorations were fine and unique,
but the heavy rain destroyed their beauty.
The receipts from the dinners and sup
pers served at the Baptist vestry were
$4,000.
The expenses of the celebration were
| in neighborhoed of S350-S60 of which
went for prizes.
The summer school girls by their pres
ence and help contributed much to the
| success of the affair.
1t was the best parade of "horribles"
ever seen in these parts; every one of
them should have had prize.
"Jim" McCuin was perfect Adonis as
he stood arrayed in spotless white in the
center of the baseball diamond.
Deputy Sheriff (alias "Deak'') Jones
extended the glad hand to everybody at
the entrance to the Athletic grounds.
1.-THE Pillow Fight" was won by Hal
lie StearRs, who secured as prize a
pair of the celebrated johnson pants.
The play in the evening had packed
house and was a fitting conclusion to the
days festivities. All the parts were well
taken.
The Committee Cd Local Sports were,
r. S. Page, Harry Plunkett and ID. III.
Scribner and they performed their duties
to the satisfaction of all.
Sheriff Town and Deputies Stevens
and Jones were on hand to preserve the
peace, but there was nothing doing in
their line. Everybody was on their good
behavior.
The dinner served by the ladies at the
Baptist church vestry was "fit for a
king" There was an abundance of it,
well cooked and well served. No fault
in that direction.

BIG CELEBRATION
AT JOHNSON.
Rain Interferes Somewhat with
the Forenoon Demonstra-
tions, but the Afternoon
Program Fully Carried OUT
Altogether a Great Success.

johnson had a Fourth of July celebra-
ton this year of which she may be justly
proud. For some time the members of
Sterling Hose Co. had in mind the Obser-
vance of the Ever Glorious and decided
it was Johnson's turn to make demon
stration of that kind. Committees were
appointed, the public got interested, and
arrangements got under way for the
event. Elmer Balch was chairman of
the committee and had DR.. Fulsom and
Will Thomas as assistants. With these
and corps of good aids the details
were fully worked up. Nothing was
left undone and the outlook for mons
ter celebration was good. Decorations
were put up on every hand, stores and
residences being gaily arrayed in the
national colors. But, alas, there are
some things that man cannot control
and so when the rain fell in torrents
about all the forenoon of Monday there
was disappointment on every hand.
large crowd had assembled in the morn
on account of the rain. The morning
program was put off until the afternoon
and with balcony concerts by the bands
and expressions on every hand, "too bad
it rains" the morning hours passed by.
At noon the clouds lifted and the sun
came out, giving the people an ideal
afternoon.
The afternoon program opened with
the parade and splendid one it was.
Ned Holmes was in the lead as marshal
and dozen horsemen followed. The
parade was made up of floats, decorated
autos and horribles. The leading float
contained 4S young ladies, representing
the different states, with Miss Susie Col
Inns as Goddess of Liberty and Lewis
Woods as Uncle Sam. The other floats
included estate Ladies" esprit of TO-"
"Peace,," Congress of Nations" and
"Knights of Pythias." All were especial
ly fine and received hearty applause. The
K P's surely did themselves proud.
The auto decorations were neat and al
tractive. Rev. Hazen's car, with it's
trimmings of roses, had on it's front a
huge butterfly, driven by little Miss
Frances as fairy queen, and in the rear
seat M aster David representing "Jack-n-
the-Pulpit." The Wood car loaded with
little children, singing and waving flags,
was fine, as was also the Holmes car, on
the front of which was Teddy bear.
Special mention should be made of the
handsome outfit driven by Miss Madeline
McCuin and Miss Eta Waters. The har-
ness and carriage were prettily trimmed
in white, and the girls becomingly ar
raysd in the same color, were very at
tractive and heartily applauded.
Further mention is made of the parade
as given in the notes herewith.
