More Truth
Than Poetry
By JAMES ]. MONTAGUE
THE LAWYER.

A lawyer draws wills and SIGH,
And lOosens legal snarls:
But what has made him really rich
Is other peoples quarrels.
The business man TOO wise to scrap
Cor fighting willis his Collars)
Goes out and hires lawyer chap
To fight about his dollars
The lawyer never gets het up;
1t doesn't help his case
To call some other man a pup,
Or smash him in the face.
And anyway his clients cause.
While near his heart, no doubt.
Is nothing that a man Of laws
Need get chastised about.
And therefore, while the business
man,
Enjoys serene repose.
The lawyer cheerfully will pan
His clients business foes.
He fights for his employers pelf
Unstirred by rage or fury.
And, as he is unmOved himself,
He better moves the jury.
have but little laid away,
But surely if I had
I always cheerfully would pay
A lawyer to get mad.
And while he fought my enemies.
And licked EN- fair and square,
I'd Toll amid the blOssoming trees.
And never know "A care.

MAY RESUME
STEAMBOAT TRAVEL TO
PORTLAND and BOSTON

At the first meeting of thu Cham
Der of Commerce On freight rates
held Wednesday evening in City hail.
the matter of cheaper freight rates
for Augusta and vicinity was agita-
ted. It was pointed out that the
sldtime preferential rate, that for
merry favored eastern manufacturers
and made possible the manufacture
of boots and shoes and similar aFti-
cles in the industrial towns of New
England, is about 20 be abandoned
and the prevailing opinion seemed TO
be that the establishment of the new
rates would place this section at a
handicap as we'll as tend TO curtaii
production and add TO the cost of
living.
The idea of re-estabiishin an all
water route from Augusta and the
cities and towns on the kennebec to
Portland and Boston was agitated
and every member Of the committee
seemed to favor the forming Of a
corporation for this purpose. 1t is
next TO Impossible to ger quick
freight service at the present time
because of a shortage of cars. For
eight months of the year the Ken
of substantial dimensions would
prove a source of much profit TO the
owners and of great advantage TO
local shippers. Maine Is rapidly re-
claiming her resources and surely a
water highway of this nature should
be used in this cNsis.

Portland Parade

Camp Deyens, Mass.-Maine people
who attend the Centennial eeie-
bration in Portland on Monday, July
), and witness the big parade that 10
TO be held there are going to be ex-
tremeiy proud of the 3rd Maine In
fantry- Fer over ten days now, they
have been at Camp Devens and they
have acquired the deep tanned com
piexion that goes with ouI-of door
work.
They are fit" and when they
march through the streets Of Port
land. they will have the stride and the
carriage OF soldiers. just what the
men at the head OF the regiment ana
the T. >. Inspectors Instructors have
been aiming for To see the 3rd
Maine on parade is going To be a<treat
and it viii be one OF the features OF
the last Of the celebration.
In addition to the regular eompan-
les of the Bird Maine. the State
Quarter1nasfer Corps will be in the
parade and the new sanitary unit will
also be seen. This means that near
ly 1.lo0 officers ana men, members OF
the Maine National Guard will be On
hand tor the ceremony.
Since arriving at Camp BevsHs on
June 10. the men have enjoyed q
wonderful tour OF duty. Strange to
say there has been 10 rain after the
first two days although letters from
home have reported-p plenty Of rain in
Maine. The air has been still, hot,
and lately. muggy. Each day the men
have gone through their dTiiis, either
in the field or at the range. Battalion
and regimentai reviews have been
held and there has been a pieaty of
work in both close and extended for
nations.
Last week on Thursday afternoon.
the whole body Of guasdsmsa walked
five miles from camp TO watch a
spectacular capture OF a machine gun
nest by tina regulars stationed in
camp. It was no sham battle, for
real bullets were used and the fare of
the signal rockets. the rattle Of the
machine guns and the reports OF the
rife grenades made noise enough to
satisfy anyone. The whole demon
stration was well worth the ten miles
of dusty road that had TO be travelea
TO see it.

PROF. WILSON'S
SPECIAL WORK Is
FEEDING FISH

Prof. Charles P. Wilson. science in
structor of the Normal school al
westport. Mass, VINO has been visit.
ing in the city for few days u
the guest Of his mother. Mrs. s. w
Crosby. at the home Of Mr. and Mrs
John E. Nelson, Winthrop street, left
Thursday morning for the middle
west, where he plans to pass ths
summer. There ne will De engaged in
research work for the government in
connection with fisheries.
Mr.. Wilson states that ASH in or.
der to live and thrive must have their
own special kinds of food. All kinds
Of fish are not adapted. to all toca-
tons and regardless of the spawn be-
ing placed there the fish will not M"e
if they cannot get there the proper
food. If it is wanted-tilat fish are &c
be placed in a certain place and i'll
vestigation shows that the PROBE,
food is lacking, then bug larvae are
placed there.
So many transport the fish fry to
a body OF water dump them in and
let it go AT that As result the little
fish die and the work is lost Mr.
Wilson says that the use of gasoline
ON the streams and lakes is one OF tie
reasons why fish die. Gasoline is
death on dsh. Many species OF fish
come to the top TO take their food and
a very small amount OF gas will kill
them. Placing oil on the water Of a
pond TO kill the mosquitoes will Ger
tainiy get rid of them. but It will aish
kill every living thing in the water.
Mr.. Wilson has vary interesting
work TO do and understands a gre3
deal about fish. When asked il that
aided him andAmade him a bztbsr
fisherman, he just laughed and re-
piled that the fisherman should hrsi
find out what the fish wanted for
food and then bait the hook.
