Penobscot bay appears to be the saliva
ton of the sardine industry so far this
season, the catch being much larger than
in Passamaquoddy waters, and the can
neries at Belfast and Stockton Springs
being kept fairly busy at all times. The
industry is making decided boom FOR
Stockton Springs, giving employment to
many people besides paying big returns
to the fishermen as sardine herring bring

1917.

The draw of the Keokuk and Ham
ilton bridge was opened 6S1 times
fnr the passage of boats during the
season of 1917. The Official report
If the season as compiled by Engi-
neer E. S. Cushman shows that the
draw swung 1888 times for boats up
stream and 343 times for boats going
down stream. The excursion bust
ness was not good. judging from the
poor showing of excursion boats
through the bridge. The packets were
also short several trips.
The U. S. torpedo boat Somers was
I'D and down through the bridge
once this last season. and the Kabe-
kona with its two sub swatters in
tow, made a trip through the draw
in November, adding to the war-like
atmosphere.
The government boats kept the
draw swinging, especially the Musca-
tine. This boat made thirty-four
round trips and carried 1853 barges
on these trips.

Blindness No Bar to MARRIAGE.

The statistics as to age at which
sight Is lost bring out somel interest
ing facts. concerning the extent to
which marriage takes place among the
blind. The majority Of those who have
not married before they lost their sight
continue single for the remainder of
their lives. But the fact that the per.
centage single is higher among the
females who lost their sight before the
age of twenty than it Is among the
males indicates that blindness is less
Of bar to marriage in the case OF
males than Of females, since, all other
things being equal, the percentage
should have been somewhat lower for
females by reason of the fact that
women ordinarily marry earlier than,
men. The figures show, however, that
while marriagelis much less frequent
among the blind than among those who
can see, 1t is by no means rare; Of the
males who had lost their sight between
the ages Of fifteen and nineteen, for ex-
ample, about one-third, and of the fe-
males, about One-fifth, had married
since they became blind.

70 Write ON MOVING TRAIN
Railroad Conductor, Who Knows the
Trick Of It, Holds Elbow Firmly
Against His Side.

Writing legibly on a fast moving
train is difficult to a person unaccus-
Toned to it. The railroad conductor
knows the trick of it and manages to
get along quite satisfactorily. Ne
prefers to write In a standing posi-
ton and holds his right elbow firmly
against his side. The reason for this
Is that in sitting posture there is too
much lateral movement in the trunk of
the body, while in standing position
this is more easily controlled = -
When the arm swings freely, as in
ordinary writing, several joints Of the
body are affected in the process, each
Of which is capable Of it's own motion.
Holding the elbow against ones ribs
breaks" these motion tendencies, eX-
cept that of tbe wrist, which movement
Is necessary in writing, and thus the
pencil or pen is more easily con-
trolled.

Some Of the leading socialists of
Sweden condemn the attitude Of the
leaders of the American party. Secre
tary Huysmans, of the Socialist Inter-
national, urges American socialists to
support the presidents war aims to
the hilt. He says:
America was forced into the war
by Germany. She could not avoid it.
It is wicked lie to suggest that she
sought the war. Socialists are not
necessarily non-militant. They must
fight in self-defense. America is
fighting in self defense and in defense
Of the worlds democracy. America s
fight in this war is the same as that of
socialism: The socialist who can not
be good patriot can not be good in

lists clearly and emphatically that a

Socialist and good American. The
