Augusta friends of E. F. Bond Of

Of May 10: 'Lucien Price and E. E.
Bond of the Boston Globe staff have
been touring the Maine coast in the in
terests of an illustrated shipbuilding
article which, in all probability will
appear in next Sundays edition. The
Photographic work is done by Mr..
Bond, who was at one time engaged in
that business here. 1t has been % years
since he visited Rockland, but to old
friends he was the same Eddie Bond,
who helped make our amateur theat-
ricals a success, and life generally
worth living. After leaving Rockland
it became a toss-up with him whether
to take a position with the Smithsoni-
an Institution or the Boston Globe. A
job with the Smithsonian people might
have meant an assignment to go to the
North Pole, whereas his work with the
Globe mostly keeps him this side Of

Maine State Exposition

Portland, May 21.-Men and women
of Maine, as we'll as other states, who
received their rudimentary education in
the little red schoolhouses Of the rural
districts are bound to feel little bit
homesick when they attend the great
Maine State Exposition which opens in
Portland on June for two weeks.
There they will see the little school
reproduced in all it's familiar features,
the box stove that made a fellow roast
on one side and freeze on the other
the woodbox with it's sticks piled high,
the old benches. carved laboriously
with initials, on which SO many have
sat and learned the three RS, the COM
mon tin drinking pail and even the gin
gerbread and apple lunch that was SO
common and so appetizing in the old
days.
Side by side with the old type Of ru-
raj school will be seen the modern in
stitution as it is met these days in the
country with its jacketed stove, the
desks, sanitary drinking fountain and
the lunch that is deemed the most
nourishing for the youngster.
This comparison Of the old and the
new will be but one Of the striking
features Of the great educational ex-
hibit of the State that win form such
an important part Of the exposition.
Girls will be seen sewing, making the
things that they are called upon to
make in schools these days, not fancy
articles. but dresses, waist and other
clothes. Gas and electric stoves will
be in use and girls of the public schools
will be turning out nourishing food an''
showing how the young women Of to-
day is being taught to cook and save
even the smallest particle of food.
Boys will be seen at their benches in
the manual training class and both
girls and boys will be found operating
typewriters. taking dictation. keeping
books and doing the other duties that
go with a commercial life.
Music as 1t is taught in the schools
today will also be demonstrated at the
big exhibit for there will be an Or
chestra Of rs pieces made up of the
pupils of the Portland and Deering
High schools under the supervision of
George 7. Goldthwaite, the instructor
of music in the Portland schools. Me-
chanical and free-hand drawing will be
shown by the students of the high and
normal schools. The exhibit will not
be so much a display of the things
tion Of how the work is done. A whole
room So feet square will be devoted
to the educational exhibit-Advt

One Augusta young man, so 1t Is said,
has been chuckling in his sleeve for the
past few days at the way his dad put
one over on himself, though the boy is
very careful not to do much chuckling
when his dad is around. It all came about
on account of dads having bought a new
automobile, which vehicle is said to be
the pride Of the whole family. Dad likes
to work around the car and so does the
boy, and when the latter was working
about the car the other morning dad
came out and told the boy that he needn't
do the work, which included the filling
Of the oil cups. that he proposed to do 1t
himself. II can do 1t, father" said the
boy, land besides you would get all
drtied up" But dad did not propose to
have the boy usurp him in the job of
getting the car ready for spin, so he
stepped up to the boy and said "You
get out of the way. / amt so old but
what can grease up that car and per-
haps 1 can show you some things about
an automobile that you don't know" and
straightway stepping to a shelf on which
were a can of grease and can OF soap
he took the can OF soap and filed every
oil cup on the car with 1t. Just what
was said whene dad found out what he
had done has been censored and the boy
himself does not feel at liberty to repeat
the words, so probably 1t will never be
known.

Probably the swellest residence In Spar
rowdom along Water street is that en-
joyed by a pair of English sparrows that
have built their nest in the mortar which
hangs over the entrance of the Red
Cross pharmacy. This mortar is practi-
cally all glass, except what little metal
there is in to hold the glass in posi-
ton. The glass is Of the cathedral type
and of many colors and the mortar Is
lighted by an incandescent light. IL
might be expected that the sunlight by
