PLEADS FOR WOUNDED
Secretary Simmons Tells War Moth.
ers We Owe Soldiers Mucl-Mhls,
Benefit by Ideals.

Unless the boys who have fought
this war receive the benefit of the
ideals for which they have fought,
the war is a failure" said Secretary
of State Thomas w. Simmons ID an
address before the War Mothers OF
America at their meeting yesterday
afternoon in the Central Young Wo-
mems Christian Association Building
in Baltimore.
| mo one can be as competent to
see that the boys get square deal
as the mothers to whom the best in
terests of the boys is of more con-
Germ than to anyone else in the
world. 1t is the mothers of America,
who won this war, and the greatest
suffering of all this dreadful period
| took place right here in our peaceful
homes. The mothers enlisted with
the boys.
There is a great deal of talk
about a monument for our returned
soldiers. 1, for one, say there should
| be no monument until we have paid
those boys what we-what all the
world-owes them. Then, should
| there be anything left over, build a
| monument.
1--WE all know that an artificial
leg or an arm is poor substitute for
the limb which nature gave us. If
| work is necessary to- the peach of
mind of those boys, let them have
work. But it will be an eternal
shame to us if they are forced out
into the fierce competition of indus
trial life, handicapped as they are,
to earn their daily bread"
Mr.. Simmons expressed his SYM
pathy for all mothers present whose
sons had made the supreme sacrifice,
and spoke of the death of his own
son, who enlisted in the navy at the
age of 10.
There was a discussion of the al
legged arbitrary and too strict treat
ment of the boys at Fort McHenry,
and resolution was passed asking
an investigation of this matter. One
of the examples of alleged arbitrary
illtreatment was the fining of all en-
listed man $40 for smoking in one
of the wards, the nonsmoking law be
ing necessary because of the inf1am-
inability of the wooden buildings,
which are so close together as to
make fire a menace, according to the
authorities.
Another resolution was passed ask
ing for investigation of the state
ment that sufferers from shell shock

NEW PORTLAND

A very bad fire occurred at North
New Portland on Monday afternoon
April q. 1t broke out in the blacksmith
shop of Bert Hutchins on the principal
street Of the village, some hay catch
ing fire, the hay having been stored
in one corner Of the shop. The fire
spread very rapidly and in spite Of the
crowd that assembled and fought il
desperately with all means available
it rapidly spread. burning 10 buildings
in all. going up one side of the street
as far as the residence of Maury CLARK
then across and part way down the
other side. The residences of Drs.
Pratt and Hutchins were among those
turned. No one was injured. To VII
lase the size of North New Portland
this fire will be great setback to say
nothing of the loss Of personal property
involved and the people who temper
arily are out Of home.

Clean Dairy Products

Commissioner Roberts and State
Dairy Inspector Brown attended a
Grange meeting at North Scarboro.
Saturday, April rs. The vital ques-
ton on the cost of production was
discussed by Mr.. Roberts while Mr..
Brown spoke on the means to be used
in producing clean dairy products for
the market. With the prospect OF
return to a basis of normal produc-
ton farmers are coming into their
own largely through recognition OF
the vital Importance Of knowing their
business. This means simply farm
accounts.
A movement on the part Of a GER
tain corn packing company OF the
State to reduce the price Of sweet
corn for canning quickly brought out
reliable figures showing the cost OF
producing one acre of sweet corn this
year will be approximately 500 and
figuring a cut of 1000 pounds per acre
it is obvious that price of five cents
per pound is necessary to meet pro-
duction costs.
Meetings for the purpose Of organ
izing the sweet corn growers to fur
Their the prosperity Of this branch OF
farming were held at Vassalboro and

II assure you all l appreciate the
honor to officiate at this presentation
of color. In the last few years l have
been identified with several regi-
ments. In my entire time in the
army I never saw a personnel OF
men and officers that was superior
to the 3O3d artillery. There is moth
ing superior to this regiment. New
England people are the salt OF the
earth My home is in a far western
state and l never lose an opportunity
to point out the numbers of New
England people who live in my COM
munity as the greatest compliment
can pay to my own state. On behalf
