WHAT SKOWHEGAN PEO.
PIE DID THE FOURTH
Mauy Journeyed to the Lake While
Others Worked In Their Gardens

one of the principal reasons for
the Sunday like quietude which pre-
vailed in Skowhegan during the
Fourth was the fact that nearly
everyone, who on other occasions
claims his residence in Skowhegan,
was out of town on that day. 1t
was quiet, as anyone who remained
here could testify, but on the follow
ing day those who had been away
began to return to take up their va
nous duties and during the past week
every train arriving in town has
brought back those who had left to
spend the Fourth. Given below is a
list of items dealing with few of
these departures and returns.
Mr. and Mrs E. B. Chase with their
SONS Fred and Elliot, were visitors in
Augusta, their oldest son being lieu
tenant in Company E.
Mr. and Mrs. Walter P. Ordway
went to their cottage at Peaks Island
and remained over Sunday.
Mr. and Mrs. Marshall Viles and
family and Miss Maude Bacon cele-
brated by taking a personally con-
ducted automobile trip to the Dead
River region. They returned by way
of Lexington and during the day en-
joyed a picnic dinner This was Mr.
Viles' idea of safe and sane, yet
enjoyable Fourth
Mr. and Mrs. George E. Sampson
and family spent the greater part of
the day at their cottage, Lakewood
Edwin Sampson left in the late after
noon for the lake and remained until
the following day.
Mr.. and Mrs. Guy Conant and family
were at Lakewood during the day
Sebastian Bisson departed on the
morning of the Fourth by auto for
Augusta to take in the celebration
given in that city by Company E.
He returned home on the evening of
the same day.
Mr and Mrs. Bin W Page and
family enjoyed quiet Fourth at their
cottage at Lakewood.
William H. Halves, when interview
ed as to what he did the Fourth, stated
that he remained at home and did
his bit in the garden plot, trying to
exterminate the things which are de-
trimental to the growth of a garden.
He declared he enjoyed his holiday
as much as the man who was other
wise employed
Apropos to the above let it be said
that Mr.. Hawes was not the only one
to remain at home, attracted by the
needs of the garden, for many other
citizens had the same reply when
asked where they spent the grand and
glorious Fourth.
All of which III our humble opinion
was really the one best way to spend
the holiday, provided one has gar
den
Major and Mrs. John W Fogler
motored to Pittsfield on the forenoon
of the Fourth and in the afternoon
took trip into the adjacent districts
of our town.
Mr. and Mrs. Edward Whiting and
family spent the day quietly in fish
ing at Lakewood and in the evening
attended the theatre
Mr. and Mrs John Philbrick spent
the day at their cottage, Lakewood

has 1927 interments. GIG Of these are
known and 2613 are unknown. Most
OF the graves have headstones of uni
form size, color and shape.
In front of Headquarters there is a
cannon, which has seen service It has
hole in one side where a bullet had
hit it and tore hole in the steel near
~ an inch deep. 1t is probably sixteen
feet long and shoots a ball about six
inches in diameter. This cannon is
dismantled now and out of commission
but it is an object of much interest
and many pictures are taken with this
cannon in the back ground
There are seven branches of service
in the regular army. Each branch
can be identified by the color of the
cord on the hat band. Following are
the branches and their respective
colors: Infantry corps-blue. Cavalry

can be told from a private or rookie.

GOVERNMENT TELLS HOW
TO ADDRESS SOLDIERS.

AS the boys leave for the front
somewhere in France" their friends
will wish to know how to reach them
by letter. The government has pre-
scribed form which the postal au-
thorities insist must be strictly follow
ed. And the rule is especially strict
against any attempt to indicate the
name of any town or even province in
addressing soldier in Europe.
Warren sheaf. [volume] (Warren, Marshall County, Minn.) 1880-current, 1917-07-25

An ordinary two-cent stamp will
carry your letter to any part of the
fighting front. The soldier need not
stamp his reply at all, if the stamps
are not convenient, but the recipient
at this end of the line must furnish
the stamp.

DACOTAH LODGE I. o. b. b. GETS
PLEASANT SURPRISE.

The members of Dacotah Lodge l. O.
B. B. of Grand Forks, No. OAK, were
pleasantly surprised at the close of
their regular meeting on Sunday, Feb
ruary 18th. Just as the doors of the
lodge rooms were opened for the de-
parture of the members an alarm was
heard at the door. Upon examination
the Inside Guard was confronted with
a host of ladies who evidently had been
waiting silently in the anteroom.
Mrs. Max Rabinovitch, who acted as
spokesman, explained their mission.
The lodge room was Immediately turned
over to the ladies and in a short time
everyone was interested in solving the
mysteries of Grand Nola. The holders
of the high scores were awarded some
dainty prizes. After this short diver
sion a self-appointed committee con-
sisting of Mrs. Leo Baer, Mrs. Ben
Cooperman and Mrs. Sam Friedman
served an appetizing lunch. Remarks
by the Chairman of the Intellectual Ad
vancement Committee, Bro. Max Rab
inovitch, were to the effect that he
hoped that the ladies will take advan-
tage of every opportunity to do what
they did. The evening was brought to
a close by a rising vote of thanks to
the ladies in attendance.

NEXT WEEK AT THE METROPOLI-
TAN.

The engagement of Robert Mantell at
the Metropolitan Theatre, beginning
Monday evening, March 9Th, and run
ming through one week, with the regu-
lar matinees Wednesday and Saturday,
will be of exceptional interest from the
fact that in addition to his regular
Shakespearean repertoire, he will pre-
sent, by special request, a performance
on Wednesday matinee, of Bulwer Lyt-
tons romantic comedy, "Richelieu.'
The other plays selected for the engage
ment are: Monday evening, and Satur-
day matinee, "The Merchant of Ven
ice'; Tuesday evening, "Hamlet,';
Wednesday and Friday evenings, MAC
BETH; Thursday evening, king Lear;
Saturday evening, Richard ILL.,"
1t has been several years since thea
TRIGGERS here have seen Mr. Mantell,
and many seasons since such universal
interest in stars engagement at
local theatre as that which has been
aroused by the announcement of this
engagement at the Metropolitan Thea
ire. Mr.. Mantell's past success in re-
vivals of Shakespeare's masterpieces
have made his engagement red letter
event in the theatrical calendar, and he
will, no doubt, have a warm welcome.
With each season Mr. Mantell has rip
ened and mellowed, and he continues to
largely increase his following and in
spire the taste of the play-going public
for the poetic, the world types of the
master.

THOUSANDS OF WOMEN JOIN PHILADELPHIA
 RIOTERS FOR FOOD
(By Review Leased Wire)

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 22.-ThOu. sands of women in the southern sec tion of this city. where the residents are largely of foreign birth, shouted protests against high food prices to- day as they paraded in unorganized fashion, upsetting food displays and overturning pushcarts. Stores were entered and damaged in some in- stances.
 A crowd of women rushed a fish store and upset a tank of live carp. Kerosene was poured on other fish and the store fixtures were badly damaged. The police forced back the crowd and arrested three women.
 Similar scenes were repeated in the northeastern part of the city, also in- habited largely by foreigners. and scores of pushcart vendors lost their wares. Many grocers and butchers closed their shops. During an attack down towon on several teams loaded with food supplies, a boy was hit in the face by a milk bottle and severely injured. A report that a man had been shot proved untrue.
