Sanish Man Drove OFF From Embark
ment

Joe Woods, who runs billiard hall
at Sanish, started for home Thurs
day in his Ford but didn't bet very
far. Joe was fearfully drunk and
when he got as far as No. 500, Third
St. S. w. he drove off a five foot en-
bankment, breaking his Ford badly.
The machine did not turn turtle and
the man kept his seat. Officers found
him asleep in the car and he was TAX
en- to the city Jail. Joe will no doubt
conclude that it is easier to run a Ford
with gasoline than with booze.

on to better advantage if the rooms
were managed by an independent or

There will be a public meeting for
women in the rooms next Monday
evening to consider the propositions
which the Glass have to offer. which
has been called by some ladies who
are interested in forming such an as

Closing PhiIathea Rest Room

A year ago last April the First
Philathea Glass of the First Baptist
Church opened public rest rooms for
women on the second floor of the
Dodge Block. The need of such
rooms had been long felt by the wo-
men of the community and surround
ing towns. and by few of our more
enterprising merchants who had not
ed the work done by such rooms in
other places; the necessary furnish
ings and funds were raised by dona-
lions from those interested, and the
Glass members have conducted the
rooms since that time. Many wo-
men have used these rooms as head
quarters during shopping visits to
Skowhegan. local women have enjoy
ed them and benefited by them; COM
mittees have held meetings there, and
good work has been accomplished
But the Philathea Glass finds itself
unable as a church organization to
raise the money needed to run the
rooms, and from the experiences OF
the past year and a half have come
to the conclusion that funds could be

Visit the Schools

Schools are the most important Oil
all our institutions and yet We
grown-,1ns know very little about
them So far as the general pnflIc
is concerned, they get on quite by
themselves and do surprisingly wei
at that. There are weak spo's
enough in our school system ana IT'S
administration but the real defects
are not the ones most often com
planned Of. Our schools are blamed
for things they cannot possibly hetp
but very rarely for their actual de-
fclencies.
We ought all to take more interest,"
in school matters. Not long since a
gentleman. who was taking part III a
spirited discussion as TO the need I'M
repair in one of the scnoolhouSeS
was asked when he had last been II
the building and had 10 own that he
had never been it at all. The mos
of us have about the same right al
he to comment on school affairs.
Each father ought to visit thu
school. where his son or daughter is
attending, at least once each term
This is the very minimum. Of course
the same obligation applies to moth
ers and is by them, let it be said
more faithfully discharged. II

THIS Chew At
FIRST TRIAL
Wonderful Flavor of American
Navy" Has Never Been
EquaIed
PUTS MORE JOY INTO CHEWING

There's a wealth of wholesome COM
fort and satisfaction in a chew of good
Plug tobacco. 1t promotes digestion and
coaxes the whole system into a state of
healthful activity. Plug tobacco is the
most natural form into which the rich
leaf can be made.
One chew of American Navy plug
is enough to get your O. X. Such rich,
savory favor you never tasted before
such sweet, juicy enjoyment you never
found in any other chew.
In scrap" you get only part OF the
lcaf-part of its richness-part of its
sweet, mellow favor.
But American Navy plug is made of
the aChole leaf, pressed close SO that
all its richness and sweetness is evenly
distributed through every chew.
American Navy is made of choice to-
bacco leaf selected with painstaking
care for full juicy richness.
And the factory in which this leaf
is pressed into savory plugs is sweet
and clean and sanitary.
Big, luscious cuts for Sc and lOc.
