Mr.. Wyman Tibbetts died at his home
in Liberty, Sept. 22nd, after lingering
the age of 63 years. Mr.. Tibbetts was
born in Liberty but had not lived here I'M
til about three years ago when he sold his
farm in Waldoboro and bought the Wy
man home, which he thoroughly repaired
and renovated. He was stone cutter
by trade working at it from the time he
was 10 years of age until he was So He
was a fine workman being foreman at
Conway, N. H., for the Maine and N. H.
Granite Co. for years and was much
respected and beloved by his associates.
Soon after coming to Liberty to live he
united with the Baptist church and was
faithful attendant to all its services as
long as his health would permit AL
though of a retiring nature he made
friends wherever he was by his gentle
manly manner and upright dealings. In

Leigher of Washington, Maine, who sur
wives him and who tenderly cared for
him through his months of suffering He

emphatic" the President urges, "that it
will echo throughout the empire of ou1
enemy as an index of what America in
tends to do to bring this war to victori-
Gus conclusion"
The question now is, what ought we to
do and to this question there is but one
answer. Somehow we must raise the
Liberty loan, and it must be done prompt
ly. Our duty is plain. If funds are not
provided our part in the war cannot be
carried on and the United States will be
disgraced in the estimation of the world.
The battlefields are so distant that the
danger to our homes and free institutions
does not impress itself upon us with a
terrifying effect. But this war is seri-
Gus matter and it is best to shoulder the
burden and carry it as men and patriots.
1t is doubtless true that Germany is weak
ening but she is not vanquished. A mill
tary reverse to the Allies of any magni-
tude, or our failure to sustain our govern
ment will prolong the war. This is not
the time to falter Germany must be
whipped and unless we finance the war
the issue is in doubt. By holding back
we jeopardize the lives of our soldiers
and help the submarines to starve them
and our allies.

THE NAVAL REVOLT.

Not until the history of the war is
written shall we know the causes or the
extent of the recent revolt in the Ger
man navy There are many plausible
possibilities all of which may have been
to some extent causal. The German
war ships have been swinging at their
anchorage for more than three years.
The men have lived in confined quarters,
have had opportunity for little diverting
physical activity and doubtless in many
instances have been under the domina-
zion of cruel martinez. These condi-
lions of life cannot fail to breed discon-
tent, and to invoke rebellion. Thousands
of gunners have been withdrawn from
the navy and sent to the trenches and
this has had demoralizing effect. Tor
pedo crews and crews from what are
called secondary batteries, the men who
handle the lighter guns of the ships,
have been drafted for submarine service
because nowhere but in the navy can
men trained for submarine offensive be
obtained. Men in the navy fighting with
their feet on the solid decks which are
their homes, nerved by the delirium of
battle may meet death bravely, but in
submarine warfare there is no exhilira-
ton, nothing spectacular, and there will
be no history of those who give up their
lives like rats drowned in trap. This
depletion of the naval crews has probably
done more than all other causes combined
10 produce the revolt. The commissary
of the inactive navy has been robbed to
supply the necessities of the struggling
army. When Jacks rations are light his
resentment is heavy. The location of
the German fleet is such that the crews
have been able to gather the facts con-
corning the present state of the conflict and
to estimate the weight of the man power,
the financial power and the lasting power
of the Allies They know too the privation
and sorrow which the war has brought to
every non-combatant in the Fatherland.
Many writer's have fastened to ascribe
The revolt to the overthrow of the Rus
sian autocracy. We do not believe this.
There is nothing in the Russian situation
to inspire anybody but an anarchist. We
have hoped and even expected to find
shat desire for better form of govern
meat should manifest itself in the Ger
man provinces A form of government
which should give at least some little in
dividual freedom to citizen; govern
ynent which would allow the toiler to 60
10 sleep at night without the narrowing
fear that in the morning he would have
to leave his family to fight for cause
which could offer him no recompense nor
lift his yoke of servitude to a ruthless
master Our desires often make US too
credulous, 'Men readily believe what
they wish to believe" We should not
attach too much Importance to the Ger
man naval revolt If it was only re-
bellion against brutal officers and the IN
justices of the Prussian system as exem-
plifi ed by Me und Colt" it has little i'm
portant significance, but if it is an en-
phatic echo of discomfort in the empire
thu revolt means much.

OBITUARY.

An obituary notice of interest to the
older inha oitants of Freedom, Knox,
Thorndike and Unity, is that of Mrs. Julia
A. Chapman, who died in Bridgewater,
Mass, Monday evening, October. 9th.
Wednesday, the 18th, she would have
been 81 years of age. She was born in
Knox, Me, Oct. II, 1920, the daughter of
the late Deacon James and Mary Lamson,
sister of James D. Lamson, and the last
survivor of a family of five sons and
three daughters. Mrs. Chapman was
twice married; first to DR.. Varney Black
stone, who died at the age of Al years,
next to Mr.. John G. Chapman, who died
in 1867. Three children survive her:
Hollis NJ Blackstone, with whom she re-
sided, Mrs. E. w. Walker, widow, living
with her, and John V. Chapman of Grams
ston, R. |. Mrs. Chapman was baptized
in the Baptist faith in early life and was
member of the Knox church of which
her father was deacon, later of the Con-
gregational Church of Freedom Twice
left widow without means, she was con-
fronted with support of herself and four
children. Nursing and teaching for a time
and later taking Academy school board
ers and roomers were her principal activ-
tiles. Her more than average intellectual
power and religious purity gave her
strength of mind in shaping the charac-
ter and conduct of many of the young
student body, many of whom still remem-
Der her with esteem and reverence.

Neat and Useful

A raincoat for small boy or girl
is practically indispensable, winter or
summer. One of the Worthwhile fea-
lures of winter raincoats is that they
may be made of material sufficiently
heavy to afford perfection from cold
and from rain ut one and the same
time. There are q number of chem
zeal processes by which fabrics are
rendered waterproof, and while in all
cases it is not possible TO guarantee
that n heavy downpour of rain will
fail TO penetrate fabric so treated, it
will usually withstand an average
shower. Hence the old-fashioned rain
coat that was raincoat pure and SIM
ple-nothing more-has been relegat-
ed TO oblivion, and in its place has
come q garment that does not adver-
tise itself as exclusively for rainy-day
wear.
An attractive little coat is made of
rainpro0fed English suting In wide
checked pattern, and it is finished all
around with braid and belted in at the
which may be in black or some vivid
color. as green. red, etc. Generous
pockets and smart little storm collar
are features of the garment.
A rain hat of matching fabric may
be made up If desired, banded with
leather or trimmed with little wreath
of rubber flowers, such as used to dec
crate rubber bathing cups.

should be warmly lined and interlined,
