JAMES ROGAN WANTS
LUMP SUM SETTLEMENT
For Injuries Received July 10. 1917 at
Mill Of the Augusta Lumber Co..
Hearing on Petition Tuesday A.
ternoon at State House

; For Injuries Received July 10. 1912 at
Mill of the Augusta Lumber Co..
Hearing on Petition Tuesday AZ
| ternoon at State House
A hearing was held Tuesday after
noon in the Senate cha mber at the
State House before Chairman L. f..
Littlefield and II. f.. Eddy of the In
dustrial Accidents Commission in the
matter OF James Rogan of Augusta,
who petitions for lump sum settle
ment for injuries received, in place of
| the weekly payment he had agreed to.
Mr.. Rogan was injured on July 10.
1917 while at work as a lath sawyer
for the Augusta Lumber Co. in Au-
gusta. The bolt rode the saw under
the guide and caught in the teeth of
the saw and was hurled against his
arm, he suffering a compound frac-
ture of the right arm. He has since
undergone three operations on the in
jured member.
He was insured by the American
Mutual Liability Insurance Co., and
an agreement was made, approved
Aug. 7. 1917. whereby he was to re-
ceive 1874 weekly until total inca
pacity should cease. He now asks
for lump sum settlement. on the
ground that his incapicity will never
cease and that the weekly payments
of s7.94 are not sufficient to support
myself and family. That by receiv-
ing a lump sum I could invest it in a
business that would enable me to live
properly"
L. l.. Hight Of Augusta appeared
for Mr.. Rogan, with G. Dewitt Clark
of Portland and G. j. Marston of

The most important matter to con- slider in every garden is that of design. Until this is settled and accepted not q tree or shrub should be set, and if the design be not good no planting, how ever skillfully done, can make an at: tractive garden. There should be com plete harmony between art and utility. The garden should be natural in the use of plants and not dispose the latter as one would purely architectural ob- iects, yet 1t should be subdued nature that predomlnates, for the garden can not look like piece of wild nature.
