LOCALITY NOT WELL NAMED
Desert Island, OFF Maine Coast, Has
Many Attractions for Naturalist
and Pleasure Seeker.

Mount Desert island started its ca
reer with the handicap of name that
suggests place of glaring, sun-baked
sands and rocks. Yet it has overcome
this disadvantage to the extent OF now
being put down as national park.
Moreover, 1t occupies coveted posi-
ton in Bar Harbor, one of the most
popular and fashionable summer re-
sorts of the Atlantic coast.
1t was Champlain who named the
island. He was sailing along the
Maine coast when he sighted a patch
OF land with backbone ridge OF ap-
parently treeless mountains. Isle or
Desert Mountains Champlain called
1t, and sailed away. Later 1T was Wis
tied by more curious explorers, and,
while the original name stuck, Mount
Desert island came to be known as
delightfully."- wooded island, with pic
turesque mountain trails, ShadOwy
lakes and a remarkable variety of birds
and plants.
AS these reports spread, Mt. Desert
acquired population OF nature
enthusiasts, artists, poets and stead
lily increasing representation from the
world of fashionable society.
Bar HarbOr, the beSt-knOwn sum-
mer colony of Mt. Desert, lies on the
east coast of the island overlooking
Frenchman's bay and the blue Allan
tic. There are gorgeous villas and ex-
pensively simple cottages in Bar Har-
Dor, country club, golf courses.
beaches, and all the rest of the usual
summer resort equipment.
But most people find the mountains
and lakes of the island more inter-
esting than the artificial atmosphere or
the built-up resort Birds from arc
tic regions as we'll as countless vari-
cites from warmer ATTITUDES find their
way to the island, and brighten wood
and shore with gay flashes of color.
Mt. Deserts long standing as bird
refuge, its scenic beauty Gd it's in
teresting geologic histOry-Which
shows that its mountains and valleys
were cut out in an early glacial Pc
riod--all combined to make it GeSir-
able as a national reservation. The
idea was long considered, and at last,
In 1917, part of Mt. Desert was set
aside as national playground and an
official bird refuge.

Why Colds Are Dangerous

You are often told to "beware of a
cold," but why? We will tell you:
Every cold weakens the lungs, lowers
the vitality and paves the way for more
serious diseases. People who contract
pneumonia first take cold. The longer
q cold hangs on, the greater the dan
ger. especially from the germ diseases,
as a cold prepares the system for the
reception and development of the germs
of consumption, diphtheria, scarlet
fever andswhooping cough. The quick
er you get rid of your cold, the less the
danger of contracting one of these dis
eases Chamberlain Cough Remedy
has a great reputation as cure for
colds and can be depended upon. 1t is
pleasant to take.

Senator From Maryland Says
Third Party Is Forming

Alone Can Prevent Ii

Joseph Irwin France, Republican,
United States Senator from Maryland,
who tossed his hat in the Presidential
ring last week, made his first campaign
speech last night. He addressed din
ner of the Society of Arts and Sciences
in the Hotel Biltmore. and outlined his
platform.
He is opposed to the eighteenth
amendment and the issuing of njunc-
tions as method of curbing strikes.
Before the dinner. in talking with
newspaper men he spoke of the forma-
ton OF third party as reality and
sounded warning against it.
Opposes Peace Treaty
"Who among the present candidates, y
said the Senator, except Senator John
son, can prevent the formation of a
third party again this year? Already
that third party is forming.

Then, as he left to take his place at
the guests table, he said he was an
irrec econcilable on the peace treaty and
the league of nations.
In his speech he said that his search
for man qualified to become a great
President and uphold "the great Amer
lean principles" thus far had proved
disappointing.
Senator France declared in his
speech that he has looked over all
available Presidential material, includ-
ing the candidates in the Republican
party, to which he belongs.
