Camp Casfaway II one Of the most
entertaining books for boys we nave

one who loves the woods and Is wen
yersed in woods knowledge. Mr.. Mum

but Camp Castaway seems to carry
you along with the chronicled events OF
the story just as though you was with

his best. The story is about three

Glad to help amuse the boys buys

Choir rope breaks and the balloon goes
adrift, finally landing in the dense
woods in an unknown land. which later
il found to be Canada. The story OF
the winter passed In the woods. far
from civilization, relying on their own
resources and the wocdscraft Of the old
hunter, makes a fascinating story. It
also carries with it great amount OF
useful knowledge as tc life In the for

MONMOUTH

NORTH-One OF the Journal cores
pondents ran across some interesting
facts while searching around the 9TH
er day for hens in North Monmouth.
He found a. big enterprise at the VIII
lage carried on by the Winthrop Mills
co. They have a new brick wooden
mill 216 feet long and 40 feet wide,
three stories high and basement, MAX
ing 1t the same as four stories. This
mill is all fitted up with all modern
machinery for the manufacture Of
some of the finest bed blankets made
in the United States. At present they
employ about 80 hands which is about
half the capacity Of the mill. They
have not been able to get all the ma
chinery to operate the entire plant
owing to the present war in Europe
This machinery is most all made in
Germany but the company has now
placed orders in the United States and
the prospect Is that the mill will
double the amount of help before the
summer is over. The company owns
about IL houses in the village which
are filed to the utmost capacity. from
one to four families in a house and not
rent TO pc had at any price SO they
Will have to build more houses for the
extra help this spring. At the present
writing they are turning out about 1000
blankets week. They own one large
storehouse 81 by 100 feet filled with
Dox shocks and raw material for the
work there. The company owns what is
known as the old Stanton webbing mill
which Is also used for a storeholse
me finishing room at the mill is about
10 by 70 feet. this is where the blank
cts are finished and tagged, wrapped
IN paper and packed in cases ready for
the market. They keep two teams on
the road most all Of the time to An
nabessacook station, drawing the fin
ished products down and the raw ma
terial back to the factory. This COM
pany pays their help every week which
makes business better for the local
traders, OF which there are two meat
ana general stores, where ANYTHING
can be purchased from a paper to a
side OF beef. The Winthrop Mills Co.
own all the water power privileges
from the Wilson lake to the old Moody
srist mill, and they have established
an electric plant Of their own. which
also lights the streets of the village
lnis enterprise has proved a great ben
ent to North Monmouth and with the
expected growth Of the next five years
It IS predicted that by that time North
Monmouth will be the most thrivinr
and hustling town Of it's size in Ken.

Write Him . Note!

General" Carranza is playing horse
With Mr.. Wilson. precisely as he has
always done. Mr.. Wilson gave his
solemn assurance to the A B c media
tors, two years ago, that II they would
agree upon q plan for a provisional
government Of Mexico which appealed
to him (President wilson) a. just. he
would guarantee that Carranza would
accept it. The mediators devised such
a plan, procured the approval OF the
Huertistas and that Of Mr.. Wilson,
but Carranxa did no such thing.
A year later President Wilson invited
the Mexican chiefs to meet in a confer
ence to choose president Of Mexico.
Carranxa refused to participate in such
4 conference and invited Mr.. Wilson
to mind his own business. And for
a brief time, Mr.. Wilson did. Then
President Wilson called together GER
tain South American diplomats and
invited them to join the United States
n recognising Carranza as president,
with certain pledges from the old BAN
dit as to religious liberty. freedom from
footing, etc. The South Americans
agreed. Carranza accepted the recog-
milton and tossed the proposed pledges
into the waste basket.
Having recognized Carranza, lent
him all the moral support possible ana
even tried to induce American bankers
to finance him, President Wilson was
then. forced 10 take steps to drive
Carranza's rival. Villa, from the field.
And once more Carranza laughed
at Mr.. Wilson, refused to let him use
the Mexican railroads and put every
obstacle he could, short Of actual force,
in the way Of the accomplishment of
his ayowed purpose.
And NOW the recognized president
Of Mexico. with American arms in his
hands. advises the American bandit
hunters to % home before something
serious happens. So that the villa,

Editorial Comment
A Friend Of the Birds.
LeWiston SUM-

Winthrop Packards lecture tonight
at City Hall is to be about birds-those
small canny creatures with whom he
has such intimate friendships that If
we/see a big barred owl looking down
from the tower as we go in we shall
know why the bird Of wisdom has
come.
Mr.. Packard is secretary Of the Mas
sachusetts Audubon Society, and comes
here to lend his aid to the work of bird
protection by lecturing under the aus
pices of the Androscoggin County HUI
name Society.
To be friends with the birds Is to
have a never-failing source Of enjoy
ment outside ones own workaday life.
In wildwood Ways" one of Mr.. Pack
ards books We find this bit of descrip-
ton:
"Of sudden the air was full of
the sound of wings, and flock of
tree sparrows that must have num-
bered hundreds swung about my head
and charged the snow-covered birches;
they began eagerly to feed on the seeds
from tt tiny cones. = had stopped
stock-still at the sound Of their wings
and they took no more notice Of me
than If had been a snowed-up fence
post or pasture cedar. They seemed
to twinkle from twig to twig like wave
let's in the sun. and thoAgh their garb
is sober their movements dazzle. =
They twittered jovially and musically
among themselves and now and then
one essayed little soto voce SONG
which he never could finish because
Immediately his mouth was full"
Such glimpses suggest that when a
world so full of gayety and charm as
the bird world lies all about us we are
missing good deal in taking no heed
of it. especially with an accredited
friend of the birds to show us the way
