are directed by the shrewdest persons,
both men and women, who are well versed
IN network required of them.
| There are in this country thousands and
tens Of thousands of individuals who de-
sire to see us Inundated as a nation and
deprived of our freedom, and they are
willing TO do everything possible to bring
these things about
! To meet the insidious efforts of these
evll-rninded and highly organized and
trainedp ersonse very good American
must be alert at all times and be keen
and active enough to defeat all enemy
purposes and activities.
Any disloyal act and word may give

ately communicated to the Intelligence
Officer. Northeastern Department. United

Of the Department of Justice.

TYPEWRITING TO MUSIC
NO NOVELTY IN AUGUSTA
Has Seen in Use at Cony High School
for More Than a Year

Tic following paragraphs which
were recently printed in the Lewiston
Journal Under heading which read
We'll. Here Is a Genuine Novelty
Typewriting To Music is Tried at Ed
ward Little, it Works Well. Too.
would seem to indicate that they think
that they have discovered something
new in the Edward Little high, but it
may be of interest to know that this
has been in use in Cony high school for
more than year
Typewriting to music. Precisely.
That is the new idea which is being
tried out at Edward Little high school.
Auburn. True. it may sound like a
novelty, but it looks as if the new pro-
ject was there to stay.
The writer was very much absorbed
in an examination on the single tax
when suddenly the strains of a Sousa
march reached his ears. Recalling the
last time that he had seen him and
heard this band in New York, he wait
ed with eager intensity for the first
opportunity of making quick glance
out of the window.
However, this opportunity failed to
come as the instructor Immediately
told him to not Worry-the typewrit-
lists were trying out q new scheme for
regular rate of speed. But he was
then given permission to visit this
class, and upon entering found the
students pounding away in uniform
tempo with the march being played on
the school victrola
Although the idea in these parts is a
new one. it as been tried out in many
Of the larger cities of New England
and has not only proved popular with
the students, but has been successful
in giving to all pupils in the class a
uniform rate of speed.
At present. the large victrola which
formerly stood in the assembly hall is
! being used. but it was stated i'll Prin-
cipal Moulton's Office Tuesday that a
smaller will be purchased by the school
board.

set Of questions TO be filled out

The canvass made by the Lime

that 10 farmers in the grea: po;a:o
toWn have now on hand IL round
numbers G7.S69 barrels Of potatoes
out of which there must be taken
10000 barrels plus of seconds. AS
the market price for seconds is very
little above the market. price for
starch potatoes the farmers cannot
afford to resort for the seconds.
y very large proportion of the po-
tatoes that now pass through the
grading screens are good table stock,
just as good for human food as the
larger ones. and the use of a IL in.
screen would not injure the table
quality of the potatoes but would
save the farmers thousands of dol
lars. The farmers have certainly
nothing to lose by a survey which
shall show the facts as to the guam

ty. and it may result in some read

the use of such screen as to save
many in the first grade that are now

end the Chamber of Commerce is di.
recting it's efforts.

report to the fuel commission the name
of the customer,,in whose cellar the

understood that the reason for the
above order was the fact that in a

has been hauled to the house Of Gus

found the coal bin in the cellar to al

stances being so full that it was only
