governor, state auditor, members Of
Congress, county officers and men,
bers OF the legislature in advance Of
the natlonal election.
For many years the September
vote in Maine has been considered
as a barometer throughout the coun-
try as TO how the people feel towards
national affairs.
Maine is generally conceded to be
a Republican state, but leading DEM
ocrats are confident that their can
didates will make a good showing,
perhaps winning. The Republicans
claim, of course, that they will be
SUGGEST ul pointing to the fact that
if the votes gets out they will "clean
up the state" The Democrats, how
ever, are preparing strenuous
campaign in order to win or to keep
the Republican majority as low as
possible.
Col. Frederick H. Parkhurst is the
Republican candidate for governor,
having defeated Gov. Carl E. Milliken
who was seeking a third term, in
the primaries. The Democratic
nominee is Bertrand G. McIntire of
Norway, a business man, and former
of Oxford county and fer six years
chairman of the board of state as

against Governor Milliken two years
ago.
The present state auditor, Roy L.

for re- selection while his Democratic
opponent is former representative

Carroll L. Beedy of Portland is the
Republican candidate for reelection
in the first district while Congress-

candid. ties for Congress are Frank

Col. Theodore Roosevelt, besides
many other prominent men from 9TH

Homer S. Cummings of Connecticut,
former chairman of the Democratic
nation. committee, Governor Chas.

I. A distinctive charming and
thoroughly enjoyed party was
that Of Mrs. Alex NJ. Palmer, at
her attractive home On Randolph
St, when she entertained her
bridge club and several specially
invited guests. The spacious
living room and dining room were
beautifully decorated with holly
and holly berries, long leaf pine
and mistletoe. Red candles in
silver candle sticks shed a rosy
glow carrying out the Christmas
idea, also the score cards were
decorated with holly, and at each
place at the tables were souvenir
snow balls tied with a sprig of
holly. From the chandelier in
the dining room was hung a huge
bunch OF mlstletoe, held by an
immense bow of red satin ribbon,
the steamers from which we're
carried to the four corners of the
table and tied to four silver
candlelabras, with red candles.
Red and white minis were handed
during the game, which lasted
for an hour or more, after which
the scores were taken and award
ed, then the hostess served a
delightful turkey course with
accessories.
