", backing up the diplomatic bid for
peace.
But the women were even more
frankly outspoken as 20 their own
course. Miss Elizabeth Marbury
voiced the opposition of the women
thus:
"The destruction of German mill
tarism has been frequently stated as
tire allied aim in this war. We are
only beginning to comprehend that
German militarism is but the tool of
German economic war domination.
This dumping of goods into neutral
countries is strategic move on Ger
.nany's part, and the Only way to re-
taliate for German savagery, the only
way to recompense in any degree the
victims of German brutality for the
horrors they have suffered. the only
protest against barbarism that will

IS for the womer of America to re-
fuse to buy goods made in Germany.

Ana, just to lend emphasis, other
women announced that they lad
placed a watch upon the goods new
stored in warehouses; that they will
use every available peaceable means
to prevent the sale of the toys, and,
failing in this, they expect to hold
an up-to-the minute tea party of the
kind made famous in Boston during

During the summer of 1914, when

It is now about decided that fur
Their attempts to recover the bodies
Of the two little boys who were on
Sunday afternoon, Nov. "a. carried
over the Augusta dam in q boat and
drowned. will be useless, as there is
growing belief on the part OF many
that the bodies did not lodge against
the breakWater below the dam, as
was at first hoped. but were carried
much farther down the river. SO that
searchers for the bodies would have
nothing to go by. A man who IS
familiar with the river and its cur
rents and eddies in the vicinity OF
the dam and along the city's water
front, said Wednesday that In his be.
lief the bodies Of the boys had been
carried far down river. because on
the day that they were drowned the
water in the river was high and the
current was running like mill race;
that the flashboards we're off the dam
near where the boat In which the two
bows went over, and this fact caused
the water going over at that point to
sheer off toward the middle OF the
river, making a strong current out
around the end Of the breakwater.
The boat in going over the dam went
around the end Of the breakwater
and almost to Hallowell before it was
found and picked UP. and it Is his
belief that the bodies Of the boys were
carried out around the breakwater as
was the boat and were carried far
down river.
