PHOTOGRAPHERS
HARD HIT BY THE
METOL SCARCITY

E E. Howard, photographer of this
CITY, has been informed by the com
panies from which he purchases chem
zeal supplies for use in his photograph
ic business that metoi. an Indispensable
chemical. cannot be obtained at any
price The last quotation given on it
was s1150 a pound and now ii cannot
be had at all. Fortunately photograph
ers usually carry an ample supply of
this chemical for sale to amateurs and
can get along for a time by withdraw
ing the supply on hand from sale. The
amateurs will have to resort to the use
of mixtures made with ortol, a chemi-
cal developed to do the same work. 1t
is said that no chemical. however, can
replace metol TO the satisfaction OF the
professional men Metol is used in de-
veloping printing papers And it is all
on account of the war; metol is a Ger

Take. for example. Leginska. one of

TO say that this artist alone costs the
local management as much as the en-
tire talent Of any of the other lyceum
courses given in Maine this season
The Boston public are paying from

OF the age, vet season ticket holders
Of Augustus course will be the only
people in America to hear this most
famous woman pianist in the world for
the sum of 16 2-3 cents. Possible. of
course, only by this cooperative plan.
All Of the other five high grade en-
tertaInments will please equally as
well, for they are positively the best
that money can obtain-the standard
by which others of their kind are
judged
While the local management greatly
appreciates the cooperation of the
public, which alone enables them to
bring TO Augusta the finest series Of ly-
ceum entertainments ever offered in
any cityeor at any price, patronage is
solicited only on the quality and price
OF the attractions offered.
The public are never annoyed by be.

ment knowing that any person who
will carefully consider the quality,
quantity and price, can find no possi-

ANY VINO have neglected to secure
subscription season tickets for this
seasons Augusta Entertainment
Course should remember that the OPP
portunity ends Monday night, and that
holders of season tickets will enjoy
the six big entertainments at less than
one-third the price that others pay.
The unusually large sale indicates
that this seasons allotment of season
tickets may all be sold even before
Monday night
All are much pleased with the plan
of having seats sold for two entertain
ments al one sale and of having the
advance seat sales begin after bust
ness hours. With three ticket sellers
al city hall box Office. the waiting will
be reduced to minimum. Another
highly appreciated feature is the
adoption of last seasons system of Sc
curing by lot places at the ticket win
dows, which eliminates all necessity of
going to the advance sales earlier than
the advertised hour. The most salts
factory and fairest plan yet devised.
The really astonishing feature of the
great lyceum movement is its magni-
tude. over five millions Of dollars being
spent each year TO supply entertainers.
Augusta not only leads Maine but New
England this season in its big city hall
course.
The secret Of this unusual course is
its cooperative plan. 1t is run for the
people of Augusta and surrounding
places, not for theatrical syndicates,
and the people by the subscription sea-
son ticket plan enjoy the country's in
est entertainers at wholesale cost All

New York, Oct. 26.-The Italians
are now in the midst Of a major Of
fensive along their entire battlefront.
which has not to the present given
any promise of important successes.
$ The otrensive is divided into two
parts, mountain fighting and a res
newal of the struggle to- cross the Is
ONO river and turn southwark to
Trieste. Trieste continues to be the
most important objective and it lis
along the! Isonzo that the sternest
fighting is, occurring. Unofficial re-
ports from Rome declare Goritz has:
fallen, but these rumors cannot be be-.
lieved. It is Uncomfortable that the.
Italian government would fail to-
make official announcement of the
capture of that position, which COM:
mands an. important part of the Is
ONO crossing. ....
Rather, the official Italian and Aus
trian statements suggest that the
Italians are being held at every poipt
of vantage along the Isonzo. The
great turning movement to the south
for the advance on the Trieste and
the capture of the Istrian peninsula
is apparently no nearer realization
now than it ever has been. The Aus
trian entertainments along the Isonzo
are proving as capable as the Ger
man trenches in France and Belgium.
The mountain fighting has been
only slightly more successful for the
Italians than the battles in the Is.
onzo plains. The most important
victory the new offensive has brought
the Italians is the capture of Pre-
gasina, amid the heights to the west
of Lake Garda. Pregasina protects
the highway leading to the strongly
fortified center of Rivo, which in
turn is one of several almost impreg-
nable points that must be taken to
open the way to Trent, the main Ital-
ian mountain objective. a.~:s@
Pregasina, though the principal
capture of the present fighting, is
only Of secondary Importance and is
only one mile inside the Austrian
boundary. Thus the mountain en-
gagements along the Isonzo give
promise of resulting in any imme-
diate Italian successes that must be
seriously regarded at Vienna and
Berlin. There is no evidence that
the Austro-Hungarians are being
forced to recall troops from other
fronts to strengthen their Italian de-
fenses. ... j

HAVE A VISION.

Get rich! Be business success
it is not wrong to be financially in
dependent. Being poor is often,
= though not necessarily, the sign OF
unfitness; it indicates failure. But
if honestly interferes with the ac-
QUESTION Of wealth, be honest. Make
your money through industry, thrift
and foresight, not through gambling,
deceit or theft.
But after you have gotten rich,
what are you?-a failure-if being
rich is your only virtue. Have a vi
sion, high vision, be that which it
is ones privilege to be-a Christian.
And that means that you are not be
a rich old crouch who hordes money
like a miser; it means you are to be
liberal and kind to those less for
tunate than you. It means much
more than that. It means that you
are to be a good neighbor, a distrib-
utor of good cheer, moral example
that you would like to have your own
son or daughter follow. Don't be
afraid to be church worker, a man
interested in the welfare of others.
Endorse work of this kind not only
by money contribution but give it
in addition what amounts to much
more, your enthusiasm be as sys-
tematic in attending church as you
are in attending to your business
) What would become of your business
if you looked after it but once a
month?

your arm chair each evening whether
or not you have kept the vision be-
fore. you that day.
