tically all our churches when the viii
lage meeting house of half century
ago should be modernized. The West
field village church has secured good
parsonage. The Brewer church also has
purchased a parsonage and it is now
launching drive to lift the indebted

convention has had and will have a part
in these enterprises.
The old church edtice at Machiasport

by exchange of parsonage properties
has added to it's resources. Rev. Fl. l..
Newman was acting pastor at Hebron
for eight months and the church is
greatly encouraged. The church at
South Gushing has been thoroughly re-
paired. These are a few of our aided
churches making special advancement
during the year.

FOUR AMENDMENTS
NOW PART OF OUR LAW

Four Of the five Constitutional
amendments upon which the people
of Maine voted i'll September are
now a part of the Maine Constitu-
ton. The fifth becomes effective
Jan. Z, 1920.
Formal proclamation that they
had been adopted was made
Wednesday by Governor Carl E.
Milliken. AS a matter of fact, five
proclamations were made by the
Chief Executive, one for each of the
amendments. In each case. the
amendments voted on were given IN
full in the proclamations and these
were followed by the official vote in
each case. According to the an
nouncements. the official number of
ballots cast in each case was:
State Pier, Yes, 26,637: No. 6777.
Increasing the debt limit. Yes. a.
642; No, 1880. Highway bond issue.
Yes, 26,22s; No, 5125. Military law.
Yes, 1885,; No. 11,020. Allowing
retention of voting residence for
three months after removal. Yes.
22.024: No. 651.
BY the nature of the resolves
submitting them to the people, all
of the amendments except that
dealing with the change in the mill
tary law were to become effective
upon the Governors proclaming
their adoption by the people. In
the case of the military amend
ment. however, no specifc provision
was made so that, under the gen.
eral law, the amendment becomes
effective on the first Wednesday of
the January following the procla-
nation announcing its adoption,
which will be the seventh day of
the month.

From Cabaret Dancer
To Salvation Lassie r.

1t is some change from a cabaret
dancer to a Salvation army lsssie,
but that is the jump that, beautiful
Marion Davies as Violet Gray takes
in 1.-The Belle of New York" which
will be seen for the last times at the
Colonial theatre today. This is the
same Belle of New York" that
proved world famous success on
the spoken stage and the screen YER
sion with this charming star is no
less interesting. Edna May was the
star Of the play when it was given
on the stage and Miss Davies does
for the screen version just what Miss
May did for the spoken production.
There are scenes upon scenes in
the drama that cannot fail to. inter-
est. Not only are the expensive
night resorts of New York shown,
but many of the cheaper ones are
presented. The famous chorus of the
Zeigfield Follies are in the picture
and in startling contrast to their ap-
pearance is the Salvation army
scene, one of the most effective of
the whole picture. 1t is street
scene in which Marion Davies first
meets the man she later learns to
love and still later marries. The
scene with it's Salvation Army band,
preacher and chorus was so realistic
that a great crowd collected, forget
ting that the camera was clicking
and the people just acting for the
movies. With open mouths they
drank in every word of the convinc-
ing lecture. The preacher. noticing
his attentive audience became more
eloquent. One little Irish boy was
so impressed that the tears began to
trickle down his cheeks.
Interesting as is 1.-The Belle Of New
York" it does not have any more
tense situations than does 1.-THE Man
Who Turned White" the other big
feature on the mid-week program.
This pulsating drama of the Sahara
is without any question one of the
most remarkable ever offered on the
screen. 1t is a tropic and barbaric
force that fairly sweep the specta-
tors along. H. 3. Warner is the star
and his work as Captain Rand is of
the type that stamps him as one of
the greatest performers now appear
ing before the camera.
"Wrangling Dudes" is the title Of
the title of the Outing Chester pic
ture that is presented and it is fully
up to the standard offered by the
other features of this new service. A
two-reel Fox comedy. Merry Jail
Birds" is full of laughs.-Adv.

siding in Monmouth and Middlesex

their rights to the public oyster beds
OF the Raritan Bay before any more
leases are granted to the monopoly
which up to the present time has
grabbed all the public oysteriands in
the Raritan river. making it impos-
sible for the oystermen who formerly
made living digging oysters in It's
waters, carrying on their trade there
in the future. or until the leases run
out.
When 1t was learned that the mon
opoly'' had grabbed the oyster beds
the oystermen who for years had dug
the shell fish in the waters of the
river. took their case up with Senator
Thomas Brown of this city, who tele-
graphed Acting Governor Runyon and
the Shell Fisheries Department urg-
ing that the oystermen be given a
hearing before any further leases were
granted.
Governor Runyon informs Senator
Brown in his letter that he has asked
that before any action Is taken on the
leasing of the beds, that a hearing be
granted to Senator Brown, and also
informs the Senator that he will keep
him informed on the matter and be OF
any assistance that he can.
