house to some one who will occupy it
permanently, rather than to some one
who might want to buy it on specula-
ton. She says she would rather have
the property sold at less figure In
order that this intention should be
carried out. but she does not want any
restrictions placed in the deed of trans
fer. Numerous requests are made in
the will of Mrs. Curtis, only one OF
which, however is of public nature.

in none of the notices Of the death Of
Anthony F. Wilding. who was killed in
action In the Dardanelles region, has
there been any mention of him as the
husband OF Maxine Elliott, the noted
actress and Maine woman. The rec
ords show that they were married in

with the rapidly growing advancement
OF the sport of air-sailing, it Is by no
means impossible that private airships
may soon become as customary sights
as private yachts.
The selectmen Of Old Orchard are
starting the season with heap big"
lot Of good resolutions. The latest no.
tees served on the public include in
substance: Take down all signs over
the sidewalks and streets; remove all
stoVeplpes used as chimneys and re-
place them with tile or brick. They
also deprecate the violation of respect
ana decency by people opening their
stores on Sunday, and feel that 1t
should be stopped. I'VE see no call for
this haste to do business out of season
and do not see why anyone should be
allowed to come here and do what they
cannot do in the places where they
come FROM We trust that we shall
not be obliged to press this matter"

or. in times Of unusual exposure.
strain and exertion. the temporarily
stimulating effects Of alcohol are suf-
f1ciently valuable to compensate for
its undesirable results. Evidently the
military authorities Of Europe think
so, or are still Influenced by custom or
tradition, since in each army the
regulation ration if alcohol is still
provided. &c.,.
The physiologic effects Of alcohol
on military efficiency would probably
not be SO clearly apparent in the
army as in the navy. The modern
battleship. cruiser and submarine
have become marvels Of mechanical
completely and delicacy. The soldier
in the trenches might take the maxi
mum German ration of 70 grams Of
alcohol a day without impairing his
ability to handle his rifle or manipu-
late machine gun. Whether the
members Of the aviation corps, the
artillerymen charged with handling
the heavy guns, or the signal men, on
whose quickness and accuracy Of
vision much might depend, could
maintain the highest efficiency on a
daily allowance Of alcohol remains to
be proved. There is abundant testi-
mony on the part of naval experts to
show that alcohol diminishes the &C
curacy of the gun pointer on the bat
tleship and so reduces the number Of
probable hits. Dutch courage" has
heretofore been regarded as an indis-
pensable equipment Of warfare, and
alcohol has been looked on as the ally
rather than the enemy Of the fighting
man: but the present war will reverse
the opinions of the civilized world on
a good many questions. and it is pos
sible that the indispensability Of alco-
hol in the army may be one Of them.

1t Is evident that the Allies are do
ing some pretty heavy hammering OF
the German lines in Belgium AMI
northern France and that they are
putting a severe strain on the Ger
man power Of resistance. Although
their gains are of sufficient i'm
portance to give encouragement to
their soldiers ana their governments.
they are far from dislodging the in
vaders. 1t is clear, however, either
that the Allies have become stronger
or that the Germans on their western
front have become weaker. It may
be necessary for them to relax their
pressure upon the Russians in the
east in order to present stronger
defense in the west. 1t may be that
the beginning Of the war, which Kit
chener predicted for May, has now
come.

Benefits of the War.
(Bangor Commercially


AS necessity is the mother of in
vention, it is fair to assume that whel
the war comes to an end it will be
found that the world is much richer in
many ways as science has been spur
red to great accomplishments under
the needs of war, discoveries that ma
tions have kept to themselves for fear
that otherwise they would be giving
assistance to the enemy. Perhaps
the greatest developments will be
found in aviation and indeed the lead
ing French manufacturer of aero
planes states that because of knowl-
edge acquired since the common &C.
ment Of the war. flight by aviators
across the Atlantic has been made
possible. Doubtless the demonstra-
ton will not come before the con-
clusion of the conflict.
