GILLO TO COACH BATES
COLLEGE TRACK TEAM

Lewiston, Jan. 6.-George Clio
who was the sensational funback o!
the football season just closed and
an almost unanimous selection FOR
the All-America team, has been ten
tatively engaged as coach for the
Bates College track team.
Clio graduates from Colgate at
mid-year and the only question re-
garding his coming is whether he
can secure permission from the fac
ulty to leave college now. with the
understanding that he will return in
June to make up loss of work. In
the meantime the track squad will
be in charge Of Director Smith.

road men outside the State. COLONEL
Schier said in part: i,I-
I wish at this time to say a word
for Maine. because I think Maine and
its State Highway commissioners and
more particularly my lifelong friend
Paul D. Sargent. its State engineer
nave accomplished so much in Maine
during the last six years which carried
them during terribly difficult period
during the war.
Some fof the other New En4iand
states started some time ago. as
Connecticut and Massachusetts, did y
years ago, TN constructing state high
ways and they have been at 1t ever
since. Rhode Island had a state hixh.
way system constructed and improved
at least five years ago. New Hanp-
shire aRd Vermont have been at work
for good many years on their trunk
line systems and State Aid roads. Our
problems were mostly those of mainte-
nance. many miles Of the main lines
having been improved and constructed
and we in Connecticut and Massachuu-
sets having to start on q period Of re-
construction involving wider and
stronger and more expensive roads to
meet the requirements Of the traffic.
Maine. however. until six years ago
had practically no road system what
ever. As you know. during the war,
particularly the last year Of the war,
conditions were extremely dificuit.

Fish Culture

Willis E. Parsons of Foxcroft,
commissioner of inland fisheries and
game, states that during the past
year 2.9O6,O15 fish were raised and
planted in the public waters o, the
State, of watch number 2,14S,130 were
square tailed trout and 757,SS5 were
land-locked salmon. Twelve thou.
sand, five hundred square-tailed
trout and 399,500 land-locked sal
mon are being wintered in the hatch
cries to be planted as yearlings and
two-year- olds next season. During
the past season $4,000 square tailed
trout eggs, 2,71S,OO0 land-locked SAL
mon eggs and 265,00O togue eggs have
been taken at the hatcheries.
Commissioner Parsons says that as
the supply of eggs at the several
hatcheries will not meet the require
ments for the coming season, several
million trout eggs have been pur-
chased from. private hatcheries
within and without the State. The
department has also made applica-
ton to the United States Fish Com
mission for a supply Of land locked
salmon, trout and togue eggs.

Now consider what Maine has accom-
plished during those six years. You
practically could not find, six years
ago. the small stretches Of road winch
had been improved up to that time
| under their so-called State Aid plan'
because they had practically gone oat
of sight, the local communities not hav-
ing maintained them.
Maine started anew in 1913 with q
state Highway Commission and state
engineer. Since that time she has con-
structed 391 miles of State highway,
1893 miles Of State Aid road and sew
eral miles under special acts, making a
total Of 1854 miles.
"She has expended during these six
"ears a total Of over 1857 900. Of which
s., 81 600 was for State highways. s.
A2,0O0 for State Aid roads and N,67,oI
for maintenance. And what Is more
significant than this; starting only six
years ago, Maine, with total mileage
Of over 1000 miles OF road, has a mile
age of State highways now under con.
struction. part Of this being construct
ed. Of 400 miles. 81 per cent. OF the to-
tai mileage Of the State, about 391 miles
| having been constructed. She has ur
der maintenance about 5000 miles OF
State Aid road and has constructed
during the six years 1893 miles of road
under the State Aid act, at cost Of
approximately 100000 In other words.
/ she has, in. these six years. for per
cent of the total mileage of the State
| constructed and improved highway.
And what is perhaps Of even more ben
eft, she has evolved a maintenance sys-
tenn on relatively a great many miles
in the State and believe me when tell
you that during these years Of the war
it has been hard to- secure laborers.
I'm 1914 they were maintaining under
State supervision in Maine 6SS miles OF
road In 1919 they were maintaining
| over $500 miles under patrol men and 81
more miles maintained that were not
under patrol and in 1919 they employed
more than 500 men on this patrol work.
"She has also been constantly ham,
pered by lack of funds and can assure
you that we in Massachusetts, will take
off our hats to the highway engineers
and commissioners in charge of the
roads in Maine, New Hampshire and
Vermont for maintaining SO many miles
of most excellent summer road for any
where from $65 to 500 mile year.

The Y. W. C. A. wishes to become
the cultural influence in this commu-

things in life are really worth while.
For we realize that God has a plan
for each Of us.
The poets have told us that he
gave us the birds to delight us with
their cherry songs or brilliant plum
age; that he carpeted the valleys
with waving grasses and embroidered
them with the satin sheen Of lovely
flowers, that he might delight our
NiSioIs llldt llt kdNt lll'
a transparent blue and the foliage a
soft green, that we might rest our
eyes.
But we know thai the poets were
captive to their fancy; that these
were but secondary missions, and
that for even the birds and the
flowers, he has plan in the general
scheme of affairs for the birds main
tain the balance in nature by keep
ing In check the hordes Of insects,
and obnoxious weeds and destructive
rodents that imperil agriculture; and
he gave the flowers their lovely
shapes and enchanting odors to at
tract the attention of the vagrant
bee. and pollenize their species.
And we know that there are none
of us so humbly born or so poorly
reared or so meagre in our talents
that he has not a use for us in his
plans.
1t is to assist the girls In finding
their mission and TO offer them a
practical religion for everyday use

NO APPOINTMENT MADE
Gov. Harding to Withhold Appoint
ment Until Committee Meets

There will be no nomination of a
candidate for the Iowa supreme
bench to succeed Judge Frank r.
Gaynor next week, and another week
that may elapse before anything IS
done in the matter. Charles r..
Rawson, chairman Of the republican
state central committee, in which
power to make the nomination lodges
let it be known that he will call no
meeting of the committe during the
coming ten days and that more than
two weeks may elapse before he will
summon the committeeman to Des
Moines.
In the meantime Gov. Harding
defines to discuss his Intentions in
the matter. The governor is OBJ
liged to appoint a man to fill out the
time between now and January LIST
when a new state administration will
take office. In view of the state
committees leisurely attitude, it may
be that the ad interim appointment
may be announced before considera-
ton has been given to the nomina-
ton. Usually executive appointments
are not long delayed. 1t can be
stated quite definitely that Mr.. Hard
ing cannot appoint B. /. Salinger to
the vacancy and that he would not
name him II 1t was possible to do so.
Mr.. Salinger is already on the bench
for the entire period that will be COW
cred by the governors appointment.
He could not fill two places in the
court simultaneously.
Developments of the last few days
indiCa e quite Ilainly moreover that
the Harding-Salinger breach has not
been mended, and that the governor
is still on the anti-Salinger side of
the fence. His attitude in this re-
gard, it is reported, may influence his
appointment to the extent of elimin-
ating Thomas Arthur of Logan from
consideration, on the ground that
events at the Cedar Rapids conven-
ton indicated an understanding
between the Arthur and Salinger
forces. 1t is quite authoritatively
reported that the Tenth and Elev-
enth judicial districts, which were
Faville strongholds at the judicial
convention, will not favor Arthur
but will support E. G. Albert Of JEFF
ferson for the nomination. II APP
pears likely that Arthur and Albert
will be the real contenders both for
the appointment and nomination.

Just now preparations are in the
making for the Audubon county ex-
hibit at the state fair. This will
be the first time in the history Of
the county that it has been repre-
scented at the fair. County Agent
Reeve is making every effort posi-
BILE to secure the best products of
the farm. and IL there are those who
have anything OF exceptional quail
ity or size, they are requested to
notify him.
For some time now 16 boys sur
rounding Audubon and 16 boys sur

STATE FAIR SOON
Indications Are That Exhibition This
Year viii Eclipse All Records

With the state fair now only three
weeks off, officials of the state board
of agriculture are making the fore
cast that this years exposition will
be the most successful and most
largely attended of any in Iowa his
tory.
Advance sales of reservations in
practically all departments OF the
fair have indicated a greater inter-
est than ever before in the educa-
tional features of the states annual
show. The swine pavilion was sold
out two weeks ago. All conces-
sions were gone the first week in
July. Despite the fact that the fair
will open a new 100000 cattle barn
this year, it was indicated last week
that practically every one of the l.
500 stalls in this giant pavilion
would be taken. Wide interest is
also being shown in the boys and
girls department, where over $500
in premiums is being offered.
More money will be spent for this
years amusement features than ever
before. These will include Al VIII
son changing planes in mid-air, Ruth
Laws night flights in an illuminated
plane, a night fireworks spectacle,
"The Siege of the Dardanelles, So
ciety horse shows, auto races Aug
ust 9th and September 3rd, horse
races the other five days Of the fair,
fifteen vaudeville and circus acts in
front of the grand stand, military ex-
hibitions of tanks, tractors, artillery
and machine guns in action, state
horseshoe pitching tournament and a
dozen like features.
The state fair camp grounds have
been enlarged to 100 acres this
year. The fair dates are August
25th to September 3rd.

BURGLARS ROB
BUSINESS HOUSE
SECURE ENTRANCE THROUGH
COAL SHUTE AND LOOT STORE
OF MUCH MERCHANDISE

Burglars. entered the department
store of Henriksen Bros, some time
Monday night. Tuesday morning
when Sig Henriksen and George
Jensen went to the store to open up
az seven o'clock, they found the
back door open. They thought 1t
the other members of the firm had
been there before. A few moments
later customer came in to make a
purchase and when they went to the
cash register they found 1t had been
emItied of 81 in change. The cash
register on the dry goods side con-
tanned a like amount and this was
also gone.
On closer investigation II, was
found that quantity of hose, a bolt
of nine quarter sheetihg, 2 bolts Of
Powered sateen, one bolt of plain
sateen and georgette waists had
been taken from the dry goods de-
partment. A half bunch of bananas,
half box of oranges, 3 boxes of
cookies, a large quantity of canned
pears, cherries, pineapple, jelly and
jam, coffee and other articles had
been taken from the grocery depart
ment.
Sheriff Wilson was Immediately
called and on going to the basement
It was discovered that the burglars
had gained entrance through the
coal shute and thence into the base
ment. A burglar alarm was also
found 1t is thought three men
were in the gang and were fright
ened away before they had finished
their job. Nightwatch Alex Fer
guson shot dog about two o'clock
that morning and 1t is thought the
men became alarmed when they
heard the shot fired.
In their haste to get away they
lost several pairs of hose which
were found in the alley back of the
Green Bay lumber yard.
There is no clue whatever. 1t is
presumed that the goods were put in
a sack and carried to an automobile
I'm the alley. The total loss is in
the neighborhood of $500.
There is strong suspicion that
the work was done by home talent.
1t is evident that the robbers were
not professionals from the fact that
so much bulky goods were taken.
Professionals would have taken silks
and other high priced goods. The
loss is heavy enough and the Hen
riksen Brothers are mighty glad the
loss is no greater.
