1.-THE Presidents Appeal"

President Wilson is considering making
another speaking tour. If he finds that
southern and western congressman are
trying to throw trigs in the way of pre-
paredness he will make a personal appeal
to the people of those sections of the
country. And it is safe to predict that
the appeal will be successful. The Presi-
dent speaks from conviction and he pre-
sents a case which is so strong that when
it is understood there is no doubt of the
popular verdict. The Middle West rail-
lied to the Presidents support after they
had heard him speak. If he finds it nee
essary to make a similar appeal in other
sections of the country, We believe that
the result will be the same and congress-
men who are lukewarm on this matter
Of the national defence will hear from the
the President. And the people are in the
mood to see to 1t that their wishes are
carried Out.-Waterville Sentinel.
In twelve months the President has
learned that the American people de-
mand insurance against the CONNER
cial -miIitarism run man. that is devas-
tating the Old World. so he goes forth
to appeal to them from their own
standpoint against the combination of
Organism and anti-Wilsonism in his
own party. The Middle West rallied"
to him after hearing the President
speak, the same way that any con-
testant rallies to the support" of an
other whom he has converted to his
own logic. The people approve the
Presidents conversion to preparedness
for defense" but we very much doubt
their enthusiasm .over! his declaration

He didn't know that it was loaded;
Twas pointed at friend in play.

His friend may get around some day,
Most citizens, or. so says rumor,
Enjoy a playful little wheeze.
But it would be no loss to humor
If men cut out such jokes as these.

The members of the Dover oxcroft
joint school committee are wondering
what they will do about securing quar-
tiers for the manual training depart
ment for the coming year. The pres
ent quarters in the building owned by
the Grange are too small for the pur-
pose and the members of the commit
tee also feel that the rent demanded is
altogether too high. Suitable places
for the manual training department are
conspicuous by their absence and about
the only solution of the problem seems
to be to secure piece of land and
build a structure suitable for the pur-
poses.

story in which a prominent member
Of the Bowdoin College faculty played
a leading role. Saturday evening
several members of the faculty at
tended the Bowdoin dinner in Port
land. Some Of them delayed their
departure so long that they had diff
nculty In making connections with
the midnight train. In fact two
members Of the faculty were obliged
to jump the train after it had start
ed. One reached a passenger coach
without difficulty, but the other with
out at first realizing his mistake
jumped a blind baggage car. BY the
time he discovered his mistake the
train was going 10 fast that he was
unable to get of and he was obliged
to hang on like tramp until tho
train reached Yarmouth Junction.
When the train slowed down to take
the 'knownothing" there the profess
sor jumped of and attracted the at
tention Of the train crew. who stopped
the train and held it until he ran
back to a passenger coach.
