The legislative committee on educa ton
paid an official visit to Castine normal
school last Friday. The students did not
fail to take Advantage of this opportunity
to put in a plea for the much needed
gymnasium. The visitors seemed
favorably impressed with the proposition,
especially after witnessing the basket ball
game in the evening, when the normal
school girls defeated the girls from Buck
sport seminary. Castine normal should
have its ''gym."

KEEPING THE RANKS FULL.

The world war is so full of deeds of
sacrifice and heroism that the chron-
icler of current events can do no more
than touch the high places in passing.
Among the thousands of examples of
devotion to the cause of liberty per-
haps there is none greater than that
shown by Newfoundland.
Britain's oldest colony has given so
generously of her manhood for more
than three years. and her gallant reg
iment has so often been reduced to a
thin line by death and disablement
that the question of her ability to con-
tinue the filling of the ranks has be-
come a matter of grave consideration.
When the war broke out 1000 able
seamen Joined the British navy, and
soc volunteers began the formation
of the Newfoundland regiment. The
number of the seauen~ has been in
creased since then, and they have had
their share in the naval actions. With
in a year the regiment was HOO
strong. Kitchener reviewed it with
satisfaction. and sent it to the Darda-
nelles, where it captured Caribou hill
