Waldo County Pomona.

Waldo County Pomona Grange held its
March meeting with Union Harvest
Grange, Center MontviIle, Tuesday,
March 18th. 1t was a beautiful day and
| all roads seemed to lead to Center Mont
vile and l am sure all would agree that
the day proved that the roads led in the
right direction. The grange opened in
form, W. M. B. L. Aborn in the chair.
During the "waitinP time" pleasing re-
marks were made by brothers L. c. Morse
| and c. M. Howes. Brother Morse was
very i'll last winter for ong time, very
near the border This was his first meet
ing with Pomona since his recovery and
the patrons were very glad to welcome
him. The fifth degree was conferred up
on a class of 10. At the noon recess
over 200 were most pleasantly cared for
in the dining hall. The grange was called
to order by the master and opened with
musi; by the choir. A fine address of
welcome was given by Mrs. VoIney
Thompson. Mrs. Mae Hall of Dirigo
Grange, Freedom, gave an equally fine
response, followed by an instrumental
duet by sisters Hazel Arno and Clara
Bean, who were given an encore. AS
three of the officers were unable to be
present at the installation, Worthy Lee
turer Annie Aborn very gracefully in
stalled Leroy Morse as Steward, Annie
/
Pomona.
Then came the topic, "ResoIved, that
the Government should guarantee the
farmers reasonable profit on their
crops" opened by J. V. jackson and
further discussed by brothers Howes,
Morse, Woods, Ripley, Paul, Bellows,
Hurd, Hay, Clements, Worthy Lecturer,
and Worthy Master. The discussion was
about equal pro and con, with some quite
telling arguments and stories on both
sides. Brother Morse in his remarks
touched upon the late war and gave some
interesting comparisons in regard to the
Civil War and the Eur opean War Lib
erty furnished 60 men in '65 and 10 in
the late war $50, 900 men were lost in
just the northern States in '65 and con-
siderably less than 100, 900 men were lost
all over the union in the late war. Broth
er Morse was one of four brothers in the
Civil War and all safely returned.
The host program was then taken up:
Recitation by sister Wentworth; song,
sister Edwina Berry, who received an
encore; tableaux, 81 found you among
the roses," beautiful tabeaux. Waldo
Pomona Grange is to be congratulated
upon having a member, l. P. Critics,

How They Vote in Germany

We are permitted to use the following
letter from bright young American who
saw how the Germans conduct their cleo
ton, and gives his opinion to his aunt, a
Belfast woman now in New York:
MayschawS, Germany,
January Il, 1919
Dear Aunt
Have you wondered what has become
of me? / know | have not written for
some time, but you see, there is nothing
much to write about The same old
schedule every day.
Last night the Company put on show,
Jazz Show, for the regiment, and it was
a knock out" Had everything from a
Hula Hula dance to boxing contest, and
included "Wop" impersonation, string
instrument quartette. Came out fine all
the way through.
Sunday was election day. and it was
farce in every phase in this town and in
all others of the district The Church
told them who they should vote for, and
after leaving Church for the polls they
were handed slip of paper on which the
names of the Centrum Party, the old
regime and church party, was printed,
This to be dropped in the ballot box :"
this district the majority was $4,000 out
of II, 500 votes OF course the church is
not in favor of the new government and
is for the old regime only. | do not know
anything about the districts in which
there are larger towns and cities, but
sincerely hope it was a square deal. This
for the big reason that the more procras-
tination, the longer we stay here.
AS to when | am going to drop in on
you, it is certainly problematical. Eng
land, of course, has been prepared for
quite some time for just this emergency,
and had their plans we'll formulated They
are discharging 10000 each day and soon
will be discharging 40, 900. The big thing
about it is that they are first discharging
the first service men, and the last to enter
the service to be the Army of Occupation.
1t certainly is fair play in every respect,
don't you think? Of course, "ship" men,
as they call them, are those who have de-
pendents or are wounded in hospitals, and
have preference over all.
About all the news for weeks and weeks
back. Please remember me to all the
folks. Hope this finds you well.
P. S. No furlough yet, but have our
names in as matter of form.

The Milliken Regiment.
History Being Compiled by Col. Balentine
Soldiers are Still in Coblenz, Germany.

Col. Arthur T. Balentine, commanding
the 56th Pioneer Infantry now in the
army of occupation is compiling his
tory of the MilIiken regiment. Chap
lain James A. Carey, formerly pastor of
the church of the Sacred Heart in Halo
well, has written the foreword for the
publication.
The 56th Pioneer Infantry was original
ly organized by Col Balentine as a reei-
ment of heavy field artillery in the Ma
honal Guard of the State of Maine, un-
der the name of the Milliken Regiment.
The regiment, which was strictly a VOL
unteer organization, was organized in 10
days being completed July 16, 1917.
1t was modified at Brunswick July Is,
1917, under the title of the LIST Maine
Heavy Artillery Immediately after it's
organization on Aug. 20, 1917, by order
OF the War Department, Col. Balentine
formed from the personnel of the repi-
ment the 1O1st French Mortar Battery.
This was the first trench mortar battery
organized in the United States. It com
prised 1871 men and two lieutenants under
the command of Capt Roger A. Greene
OF Lewiston. They were assigned to the
10th Division and shortly afterward sailed
for France.
At the same time 100 men were trans
ferred to the 10lst Regiment of Engi-
neers of the same division. After these
transfers were made and the physically
unit eliminated there remained 800 men
of the original roster, and of these 200
were later commissioned as officers.
The regiment was transferred Aug. "a,
1917, to Camp Bartlett, Mass, and thence
on Nov II, 1917, to Camp Green, N. C.
BY subsequent order, the regiment was
changed to infantry, Feb. 10, 1918, under
the name of the 56th Pioneer Infantry,
and or Feb. Is, 1918 was sent to Camp
Wadsworth, S. c.
In August, 1918, the regiment was
ralset to strength of $3.50 men and 1O1
officers and received orders for duty over
seas, going to Camp Merritt, N, j., Aug.
81, 1918, for overseas equipment On
Sept. 4, 1918, the regiment sailed from
Hoboken and arrived at St. Nazaire,
France, Sept. Is, 1913.
They were attached to the list army
and ordered to the area of active opera
lions, leaving St. Nazaire Sept. 10, 1918,
gong by way of Latrecey and Fleury to
Dombasle er- Argonne, arriving there Oct.
Z, 1918. The different companies of the
regiment were scattered all along the Ar
come sector during the last big drive of
the war and were under constant she'll
lire. They worked in conjunction with
the 21st and 23d Engineers
After the armlstice was signed the
regiment was again modified at Dom
basic was transferred to the Sd army and
ordered to Germany as part OF the Army
of Occupation. 1t left Dombasle Nov II,
1918, marching by way of Luxembourg,
crossed the Saar river into German terri
tory near Treves Dec. 4, 1918, and re-
ported to army headquarters Dec. Is,
1913, at Coblenz on the Rhine, being one
OF the first regiments to enter Cohlenz.

People Constipated and Don't
Know 1t.

1t seems odd, but it is true, that YOU
may be constipated and not know it.
You can see why it is. Take a glass
and pour in water until full. If you keep
on pouring in water after the glass is full.
1T will run over, but the glass stays full.
Just so with your bowels; they get full
of waste matter, and then they pass off
or expel from the body only about the
same amount that goes into it in the form
of food.
SO you may have movement of the
bowels every day and yet there will re-
main waste matter that ought to be re-
moved.
Give your bowels gentle but thorough
cleaning out and you'll feel great.
A fine prescription for this is put up
and sold under the name of Dr. True's
Elixir. Doctors and druggists use it in
their own families. Costs but little and
brings health to men, women and chill
dren. Sweet and pleasant tasting Works
gently. Children like it. Remember the
name, DR.. True's Elixir.
There is more Catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and for years it was supposed to
be incurabIe. Doctors prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Catarrh is a local disease,
greatly influenced by constitutional con-
ditions and therefore requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Medi-
cine, manufactured by F. j. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is constitutional
remedy, is taken internally and acts thru
the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces of the
System. One Hundred Dollars reward is
offered for any case that Halls Catarrh

giving the presents and 1t makes It
