A dainty little blouse that could boast of extreme simplicity was re- gently seen in a smart shop window. It was of delicate blue and white checked voile, and was a slip-on mod el, having no other opening than the round neck.
 A, crisp frill of white organdie out lined the neck and the long sleeves also were trimmed with turn-back cuffs of the organdie. A tape was attached to the back of the blouse to

Members of the Thimb1e club per- fected plans at their last meeting for the Hoover supper which the club is to give at the Tea Time Tavern on Greenfield Hill, Saturday, July 20, from 6:3O to 9:3 o'clock. It was thought earlier in the year that the Tavern would not be open this year, but after going into the matter it was felt that there was a possibility that once a month funds might be raised for war work in this way. The Tav- ern has always been a favorite resort | for motorists as it is just within nice motoring distance from this city and is idealy located. The Thimble club has been most successful each summer with the weekly teas at the Tavern raising very goodly sums of money with which to carry on the various charitable and philanthropical works in which it has been interested since its inception.

MINUTE WOMEN VERY BUSY WITH W.S.S. PLEDGES Committees for Lawn Fete Will Have Meeting
 Tonight NEW RED CROSS
 AUXILIARY Canning Pledges Should Be Returned to Sanford
 House

This is a busy week for the Min ute Women and the teams are very actively engaged in several kinds of war work. The greatest number to be applied to any particular branch is on War Savings Stamps pledges and there are three teams at the County Court house today counting and classifying the pledges that were turned into the office of Hincks Bros. in the recent campaign. These teams are the ones headed ly Mrs. M. J. Blume, Miss Dotten Gros Claude and Mrs. L. B. Salabes.
 The main object of this classified ton which is being handled by the Minute Women is to see to it that the pledges for War Savings Stamps or Thrift Stamps are lived up to. The different agencies will be noted so that follow up work can be done where it is considered necessary. The places where the stamps can be bought will also be compiled and in this way sketch can be made on those who promised to buy a certain number of stamps each week but have not lived up to their word.
 The team of Minute Women under the leadership of Mrs E. w. Downs is to be at the disposal of the Room Registration Bureau the latter part of this week to gather data for the investigation into this situation that is now being carried on. Mrs. George Mara's team is working this week with Mrs. W. H. Griffith and the members are doing research work under the direction of and for the War Bureau. The Minute Womer are proving themselves one of the most useful organizations that was ever banded together and the qual- ity of their work is excellent.

CONDUCTOR AND BRAKE
MAN WERE AT FAULT
IN CARIBOU ACCIDENT

Ihat the conductor and brakeman
the conductor in greater degree only
OF ploW llaIn extra H. were negligent
IN 1alllng to protect their train in ac-
cordance with rule 80 when they knew
! mat they We're not making the schedule
rate OF speed of the train behind them,
and that that negligence was the prin-
airy cause of the accident. that the
| engineer Of pillow train No 50 was
Negligent IN failing to see or hear the
warnings given by Brakeman Meyers
ana That that negligence contributed
directly to tho second collision that the
dispatcher should not have permitted
Train No. 50 to leave Pressure Isle while
the other two trains were still south of
/ caribou and that the conductor of
Train No. 50 should have kept a watch
IN the monitor until his train reached
us destination. were the findings re-
ported Wednesday by the Public I-tili-
ties Commission in the matter of the
double collision which took place on tho
fino of the Bangor & Aroostook Rail
rcad near Caribou on the nigh. Of
Feb. last and in which four persons
were killed and a number injured.
4 In conclusion the commissioners state
that they do not find that either the
dispatcher or the conductor of Snow
Plow Extra No. 90 violated any positive
rules or regulations and they recon-
mend that pillow trains and passenger
trains be spaced one station apart
where there are no block signals and
that a member Of the crew of a pillow
train be required to ride in the monitor
at all times to watch out.
