Truth From The Stars.

In recent reading of the horoscope, "
which is popular syndicated feature in
the columns of some of our exchanges, we
came across this prediction from the
planets: "The South should benefit great
ly from public enterprises especially after
August.
The stars indeed speak truly in this in
stance. Soon after August the great
cantonments of the national army will be
teeming with drafted soldiers, whose
maintenance will set floods of public
money swirling through the communities
where these environments are sit uated.
These co ntonments number sixteen and
nine of them are fixed at favored points
in the Southern States, where our troops
will be prepared for the rigors of the
life in the trenches of Northern France
through life in the balmy air of our own
Sunny South.
In addition, the majority of the mobili-
cation camps for the federalized National
Guard have likewise been established in
Southern States, and from these centers
also there will well up copious streams of
public money. We have not hitherto
taken much stock in the daily horoscope
as we have seen it from time to time in
the newspapers. But we must admit
that this particular prophecy has made a
ten-Strike.

HIT THE KAISER.

The game of ''F1it the KAISER devised
by members of the Berwick Red Cross
Society as diversion for those attending
its big lawn party, and incidentally as a
coin-cornering enterprise, proved hit.
The game is very simple, being an
adaptation of the familiar handball and
puppet contest, generally seen as mid
way attraction at agricultural fairs In
stead of a row of puppets, hinged to
board and set up in the further end of the
booth to be knocked over by throw of
the ball, life-sized dummy head, nodded
and painted to form a striking resem-
blance to Kaiser Bill and hinged in the
usual manner, was set up for target.
The reward for hitting the Kaiser was
an ice cream cone given for scoring a
certain number of hits out of series of
throws. Judging by the success of the
game as money-getter at this affair, it
is believed that Red Cross societies else
where would be equally successful with it.

Railroads Help War.

Passenger trains aggregating 16, 267, 028
miles of train service a year, have been
eliminated by the railroads of the country
to facilitate maximum transportation of
freight for successful prosecution of the
war, Cutting off this volume of passen-
ger service will make available for other
purposes over 100000 tons of coal
The railroad systems of the Eastern
department, have cut out 8, 500, 600 miles
of passenger train service, thus saving
TIC, 113 tons of coal per year. The Penn
sylvania system eliminated $500, 900
miles, saving 1886 tons of coal. The
New York Central plans to save 126, 900
tons of coal. The Erie has cut out L.
600, 900 passenger train miles; the Balti-
more & Ohio 1,l68, 500; the Chesapeake &
Ohio $500
Roads in New England have arranged
to eliminate 4,847,332 passenger train
miles with saving of $50, 724 tons of
coal. The Boston & Maine cuts out 2,

APPEAL 10 PATRIOTS.

Carl Vrooman, assistant Secretary of
agriculture, has issued the following ap-
peal:
''Never before have the businessmen
of nation shown so much patriotism as
they have shown in the United States
during the past three MONTHS" said Mr..
Vrooman in formal statement. "Un-
fortunately, however, there have been
exceptions to this rule. Only recently
we have seen the secretary of the navy
and the chairman of the shipping board
forced into the arena in hand-to-hand
struggle with an organization of unpa-
trlotc, selfish, Sodden steel magnates.
IF an army of civilian patriots be not
organized to stand behind the President
and fight this great fight for business
honor while our boys in khaki are fight
ing and dying triumphantly in the
trenches, the country would be disgraced
at home by a despicable scramble for
Legitimate war profits on steel and coal,
on munitions and food.
every day we hear men regret that
they are too old to enlist. There is no
man too old to make his sacrifice at the
shop, the bank, the farm, the ballot-box,
a sacrifice against greed and partisanship.
There is pernicious breed of tories,
junkers and reactionaries in every large
State in this land. They belong to no
one party. They bear the black flag of
financial piracy and the yellow flag of
economic treason. At every election
from this time forth, the Liberals of all
political parties should make common
cause against the iunker reactionaries
A political realignment is demanded
with patriots whose motive is service
to country arrayed in a solid phalanx
against those INSCRIPTIONS, disloyal self
seekers

Will Teach Thrift.

America will be the first nation in the
world to rewrite her text books so that the
children of this country will be taught
thrift in the school room. According to
an announcement made today by the
Thrift Education committee of the Ma
tional Education association, radical in
novations in the American school curri-
cula are about to take place.
The lives of James j. Hill, Marshall
Field, John Wanamaker and other great
American business men will be studied in
the schools, and text book on arithmetic,
history, English composition, domestic
science and household economics will be
subjected to radical changes. For the
first time in the history of the world,
thrift and personal efficiency will be given
scientific consideration in the class room.
Not the narrow thrift of mere money
saving but the broader thrift of individual
preparedness for practical life will be
taught, declares the committees state
ment.
This is the sweeping significance of the
resolutions adopted by the National Coun-
Gil of Education at it's meeting in Portland
last week.

should add valuable asset to your store

sUFfRAGIsTs pARDoNED,

WASHINGTON, July19. Sixteen women
sent to the workhouse for their part in
the tumultuous suffrage demonstration
Saturday at the White House accepted
pardons from President Wilson today and
were released after serving two days of
their 60-day terms.
Leave without Regret.
The prisoners left the workhouse appar-
emily without regert, despite their previous
declarations that they desired to serve
out their time without clemency. These
assertions had led to an announcement
by the department of justice pointing out
that a pardon need not be accepted unless
the prisoners desire it. When the time
for departure came, however, the women
only protest was against the trials they
underwent during their detention.
Dinner Given Women.
At headquarters of the women's party,
the Is were received as martyrs and at a
dinner given there in their honor plans
were made for continuing the White
House picketing of which Saturdays
demonstration was part A defiant
statement issued at the headquarters said
that the campaign to impress President
Wilson and the country by parading be-
fore the White House gates would 60 on
with the utmost vigor."
The President acted after the husbands
of several of the prisoners had interceded
in their favor and after he had been told
that some of them had small children at
home needing their care.
The Boston Transcript has this to say
about picketing which undoubtedly will
continue despite the protest of the bands
of suffragists who are not militant but
sensible. 'The militant suffragists can
not complain at the sixty-day sentences
given to the leaders of the White House
picketing, since they firmly believe that
the sutferings undergone by their cham
pions will advance the cause they have
at heart; and everybody else will be quite
satisfied So there seems to be no occa-
sion to find fault with the sentences.
The militant suffra gists, however, seem
to have neglected the very best possible
means of advancing their cause That
was the means adopted by the English
suffragists, namely, the putting aside of
their agitation altogether and the appli-
cation of all their energies to the vigor-
GUS prosecution of the war. On the basis
of their patriotism, the women of Eng
land have gained their cause. The exhi-
bition of similar spirit on the part of
the suffrage organizations of this country
would have recommended their cause
very much more highly than the often
sive White House picketing, which irri-
tateS the whole country

MAINE NOW HAS GIRL YEOMAN

BAR HARBoR, ME-, July 2O-Maine's
first yeoman, Miss Abbie E. Partridge,
has just taken up her new duties as sec
rotary to Commander W. G Richardson
of the First Naval District, whose head
quarters are here.
Miss Partridge received the Bachelor
of Science degree from Simmons in June.
She was able to conclude her studies
earlier than that, however, on account OF
the faculty ruling that degrees would be
awarded those seniors who left college to
take up work for the government.
Miss Partridge became secretary to the
State Public Safety Committee in May,
giving up that position to take up her
duties with Commander Richardson.
