In some of the earlier days Of the Maine
Music Festival at Bangor there was anx-
iety as to the financial results and often
the margin was so small that it looked
like deficit. OF late years the results
have been such as to allay any anxiety.
This year enough money was taken for
course tickets before the first concert to
pay all the artists. The net proceeds will
be more than enough to paint the great
Auditorium buildings.

It looks now as II Pemaquid River

Bristol and surrounding towns says the
Bristol correspondent of the Damariscot
ia Herald. The Lincoln County Power
Company is to build dam between the
lodges above the upper mill, taking the
water from there in a penstock to the
power house to be built just below the
lower arch bridge where the old cooper
shop now stands. The lower dam and all
the old buildings left standing near by are
to be torn down. 1t is rather interesting
to note that the penstock is to be built Of
Washington pine thus bringing the lum-
Der across the continent The penstock
will be five feet in diameter A dam is
also to be built above the lower arch
bridge thus supplying water fer village

tain members had voted upon it. All
at once the sheriff turned to the white
haired boy at the end of the table and
asked:
Amt that right, Greeley"
No. answered the boy, you are
wrong
"There!' said one of the other men,
Il told you So
And you're wrong, too continued
the boy, and he proceeded to give the
history of the measure in question
from beginning to end.
Our dealer in potatoes was aston
ished out of measure, the more so
because the whole country took these
statements as law and gospel, settling
the whole dispute for once and for
ever.

being kept at the hospital for a week,
to be sure that no one would claim
him, he was given to me.
He was such good dog I sent him
to a member of the family in Ash
burnham, Mass, for the summer.
When the house was closed there, it
seemed wiser for him to stay in the
country, so Miss Mabel Greenwood,
a teacher at Cushing Academy in
Ashburnham, and incidently a great
lover of animals, took him. She has
grown very much attached to him.
During the winter Scottie went to
school each day with her and sat be-
side the desk during school hours.
He was very well behaved except on
one occasion when he ate Miss Green
woods luncheon The pupils were
very fond of him, too, in spite of the
fact that when some scholar was hid
ing candy in his desk Scottie would
scent it and sit and beg in front of
the guilty party until it was shared
with him. He is very happy, and |
wish that every stray dog might have
as good home as Scottie has.

ION SERVICE OF YOUR COUNTRY"


Boy Scouts have been hiking, camp
ing, working, playing, so that they
would have strong bodies, skilled
hands, keen minds, and courageous
spirits when they were needed by the
nation.
Now the time has come to use that
training. The nation needs every boy.
We must have a larger food sup
ply-nothing must be left undone to
avoid famine in case of war. Have
a garden, the biggest and best you
can make. 1t may be only a window
box full of lettuce and radishes, but
a million boxes like that would mean
at least two million pounds of whole
some food.
Watch for fires. Reduce fire risks
by cleaning the rubbish out of cellars
and corners. Be sure you know ex-
actly what to do in case of fire.
Think! These are only a few of
many things that you might do You
know your own town. What does it
need? How can you help?
This is real Scouting.

CHARACTERS OF MACBETH

The names of some of the leading
characters in the play of Macbeth"
were borne by real persons who fig
ured in Scotch history, but the charac-
tiers themselves and the events of the
play are imaginary. Macbeth was a
Scottish king and Macduff was Scot
fish nobleman of the middle ages.
History states that Macbeth slew Dun
can in 1899 because he had usurped
the throne to which Macbeth had the
better claim. But the circumstances
of the Staying were entirely different
from those described by Shakespeare
with large poetic license. Banquo has
Scotch sound, but no person of that
name figures in Scotch history and
Shakespeare seems to have created
him mainly in order to- name ghost.
In the play he is killed by order of
Macbeth and in one of the most pow
erful scenes of the play his ghost ap-
pears at a banquet, visible only to
Macbeth, and terrifying him while IN
seen by the other banqueters.

CAN'T TELL BY THE LOOKS.


About sixty years ago Vermont
boy, farmers son, was sent to East
Poultney, by himself, to sell load of
potatoes. 1t was a great event for
him-the proudest day of his life He
sold out his load, then drove out to
the tavern, put up his horses, and
went in to dinner.
A good many people were in the
dining room, among the rest dis
tinguished looking man, no less per-
sonage than the sheriff of the county
who had been formerly member of
congress. But pretty soon our young
fellows eyes fell upon a tall, pale,
white haired, gawky boy" sitting at
the farther end of the table in his
shirt sleeves, paying attention to no
body, and eating as if upon wager.
This is a pretty sort of a tavern,
anyhow, to let such fellow as that
sit at the same table with all these
gentlemen. He ought to come in with
the hostler,' thought our proud POI
tato merchant.
Before long the conversation turned
upon some political subject, some act
Of an early congress, and there was a
difference of opinion as to how GER

VALUE OF RUBBER BANDS.

A young woman beginning her work
as typist and stenographer secured
a position with man noted for his
large gifts to religious and charitable
organizations. One day he saw her
taking new rubber bands from a box
and stretching them until they broke.
why are you doing that?" he
asked.
"Oh, am just seeing how far they
will stretch before they break" she
replied.
well, if you had to pay for those
bands would you use them in that
way?"
Il don't suppose that I would"
But | have to pay for them, and
would rather you did not waste
them in that way
Referring to the matter on reach
ing home, the young woman said to
her father:
ITO think of his making such a fuss
about few rubber bands! He gives
away enough money every day to buy
bushels of rubber bands. If l had all
of his money l don't think that I
would make such a fuss about a few
rubber bands that cost so little"
1t is because he has never foolishly
wasted what he has that he is able to
give away so much, and he did just
right to speak to you about wasting
rubber bands said her father.

THE LILY.

Godfrey, the son of pious parents,
stood one day before lily, one bright
Easter morning, with folded hands,
lost in thought, while silent devotion
and deep emotion shone in his coun-
tenance
Thus his father found him: what
are you thinking about, my son, Z
asked he.
Then Godfrey answered: Il am
thinking of the word which our
Saviour pronounced on this flower,
when He exalted it above the glory
of Solomon
'.And why does this appear so re-
markable to your" asked the father;
you seem to be moved
Il fee, as though l saw Him stand
ing by the flower, and heard its
praises from His lips, o my fatherl'
answered the boy. Then it seemed
to me strange and moving, that he
should thus have condescended."
You are right, my son., replied
the father; Il commend and share
your feelings. For did He not come
to regenerate the things on earth, and
to loosen the bonds of death? Thus

Liberal" Lies.
The Mexican Liberals" complained
bitterly because the Reform Laws of
1857 failed to kill the Church, and the
Radicals of 1917 have endeavored to
accomplish that object. Knowing
that the real danger to their program
lies not now in Mexico, but in the
United States, they have launched
vigorous propaganda in this country
attacking the Church, with the pur-
pose of arousing American non-Cath-
olics against Americans who are
Catholic. One of their pet Mysteries
has been crying out feverishly against
intervention, alleging that the exiled
Mexican clergy are using the great
wealth" they brought out of Mexico
to organize ''conspiracies' in the
United States, to recover their
power" by means of American inter-
vention. To clinch their arguments
they declare that Americans with in
terests" in Mexico have been urging
Intervention. The fact is, the Ameri-
cans with interests" in Mexico have
always consistently urged against in
PREVENTION, and especially against in
reference, knowing full we'll that it
would bring just the trouble that it has
brought.
The exiled Mexican clergy, penni-
less, and dependent upon the charity
of their co-religionists in America, are
waiting in silence and sorrow for an
opportunity to return to their homes
and to the Faithful in Mexico.

PocAHoNTAs AND MRS. WILSON

1t was. on. the .21st of March, old
style, in 1917, that Pocahontas, love-
lest and most celebrated of all Indian
women, died in England, on the eve of
her projected return to her native
land.
The climate of England did not
agree with Pocahontas, and she was
already in a state of decline when
she proceeded to Gravesend with her
husband, John Rolfe, and her infant
son, Thomas, purposing to take pas
sage on ship bound for America.
She had no sooner reached Grave
send than she was stricken down
with smallpox, to which she soon sue
cumbed
Thomas Rolfe, the son of Pocahon-
tas, had daughter named Jane, who,
in 1875, married Robert Boiling, a
young Englishman who had settled in
Virginia. Jane lad one son, and he in
turn was the parent of one son and
five daughters. This sons great-great-
grandson was William Holcomb Boil

Ball.
