TEMPTED B Y
EASIEST WAY

Annie Miller was tempted by the
easiest way. One should not condemn
, her too much. for her husband, Fred.
had proved about as useless as any in
dividuai could be when it comes to sup
porting family. So when he pawned
her piano with which she was giving
music lessons in order to earn a little
money to maintain an existence for her
self and the other members of the
household, she ordered Freds trunk
packed and thrown out
1t was then that the call Of the easiest
way came TO her in the person of Sadie
Allen who had fine clothes herself and
made an easy living.
This is the situation that develops at

at the Augusta Opera House yesterday
and will be seen there today and

Critics have pronounced 1.-THE Bread
Winner" even better than The Parish
Priest written by the same author
One cannot help feeling that this opin-
len is merited. for the comedy is bet
ter, the atmosphere Is cleaner and the
situations are stronger: The story is
better sustained SO that there is no
slackening in the interest from the first
curtain to the last. Then. too. Father

occupies the center of 1.-The Parish

modern play.

VINO cannot seem to let drink alone nor
can he seem to be successful at any,
thing he tries. After being turned out
OF his home by his own wife. he is lost

charge by Sadie and visits her apart-
ments where she meets Bert Cooper. a
salesman In the store where Sadie
works. Through the conivance OF the

Lobster Fishermen Win

Hundreds of York county lobster
fishermen attended the hearing on
Saturday at Biddeford before the
Commission Of Sea and Shore Fish
cries to determine whether a close
time on Holsters should be declared
in this county. Commissioners
Horatio erie of Rockland and Harry
c. Wilbury of Portland were present
to listen to the protests of the fish
ermen. The fishermen were repre-
scented by Senator John Percy Deer
ing and Judge George l. Emery.
At the close Of the hearing it waa
intimated to the lobstermen that no
close time will be ordered in the
county at present. The fishermen
were jubilant, as they had declared
that their business would be ruined
if the close-time order was given
for the York county zone.

STRAIGHTAWAY CLEAN
CUT FLIGHT is MADE IN
IS HOURS AND 12 MINUTES

London, June 15.-The final goal of
all the ambitions which flying men
have ventured to dream since the
Wright brothers first rose from the
earth IN a. heavier than air machine,
was realized this morning when two
young British officers, Capt. John Al
cock and Lieut.. Arthur W. Brown,
landed on the Irish coast after the
first nonstop flight across the Allan
tic ocean.
Their voyage was without accident
and without unforeseen incident, SO
far as can be learned. 1t was
straigt-away, clean cut flight, achieved
in 16 hours and IL minutes-from
Newfoundland to CIifden, Ireland,
distance of more than 1900 miles.
But the brief and modest description
which comes from the airmen at CHI
den tells of an adventurous and amaz-
inglv hazardous enterprise. Fogs and
mists hung over the north Atlantic
and the Vickers-Vimy bplane climbed
and drove, struggling to extricate her.
self from the folds of the airplane's
worst enemy,
She rose to 1900 feet, swooped
down almost to the surface OF the sea,
and at times the two navigators found
themselves flying upside down on1y 10
feet above the water.

RAIL WAYS SHOULD
RETURN THE MONEY
Director Hines Tells Committee About
S775,OOO,OOO Advanced.

Director Hines Tells Committee About
$775, 5,OOO, 900 Advanced.
Washington, June Railroads un-
der federal control should be required
to return to the government "as rap
idly as practicable" $775,000,OOO ad-
vanced for improvements and equip
ment, Director General Hines told the
house appropriations committee at his
appearance last week, according to the
printed record Of the hearings which
become public today.
"These improvements have been
made for the benefit Of the railroad
companies" the Director General
said. "They have received very i'm
portant benefit from government con-
troll, guarantee of rental which repre-
sented the average of probably the
best three years they ever had, in
stead of having to face, as public utll1-
ties throughout the country did, the
danger of imminent bankruptcy on ac-
count of the great increases in costs.
"When the railroad administration
has put in funds with which to pay
the railroad companies what it owes
them, my Judgment is that they ought
to be required, just as rapidly as pos
sible, to reimburse the government for
these large amounts that have been
spent and as far as possible to relm-
burse the government for the amounts
which will be spent during the rest of
this calendar year.
"Our settled policy is that for the
future we will make no improvements
on railroad properties unless the rail-
roads undertake to finance them, ex-
cept in extreme cases where an i'm
provement is absolutely necessary and
where the companies are wholly I'M
able to finance it,
