FIRST AID TRAINING
TO men And WOMEN
American Red Cross Is Teaching
Hundreds of Thousands Life
Saving Methods.

The purpose Of instruction in First
Aid to the injured offered by the Amer
lean Red Cross is to train men and
women to administer First Aid treat
ment promptly and intelligently when
emergencies demand it. First Aid
treatment is not intended to take the
place of physicians service. A sur
geon should always be summoned as
a precautionary measure where there
is an injury Of any consequence, but
when one cannot be secured few min
utes' delay may mean a fatality. In
such a case person trained in First
Aid is invaluable not only to the in
dividual, but through him to the COM
munity in which he lives.
There is perhaps no way Of ascer-
tanning the number of deaths or seri-
GUS disablements which result from
lack of proper safeguards or prompt
emergency treatment 1t is safe to as
sert they number thousands daily.
There can be no doubt that the appli-
cation Of First Aid methods to each
case would UNNECESSARILY tighten the
country's toll of suffering and death.
The dissemination of First Aid train
ing and information has already pro-
1uced a farreaching and beneficial in
i1uence in the prevention Of accidents
on railroads, in mines and in great in
dustrial concerns.
The benefit of widespread knowl-
edge of First Aid in the event of a
great disaster, such as a train wreck,
an explosion, an earthquake, etc, is
obvious. Laymen who have had First
Aid training can render efficient as
sistance. Many lives may depend upon
such emergency care
Red Cross First Aid work includes
0) the formation and conduct, through
Red Cross chapters, of classes for in
struction in accident prevention and
First Aid to the injured among men
and women in all communities and in
every industry; (2) the Introduction Of
courses of instruction in high schools
and colleges.
The Red Cross is prepared to supply
First Aid books and equipment at rea-
sonable prices.
Every person in this country able to
do so should, in his own interest, re-
ceive Red Cross First Aid instruction.
Information about the course and in
struction classes may be had at the
nearest chapter headquarters. j.

MAINE DAIRY WORKERS

Maine dairy farmers have less hired
help this year than the dairy farmers of
any State IN New Englsnd according to
data secured by the Department of Sta
tistics of the New England Milk PRODUCE
ers' Association. Their own labor and
the labor of members of the family total
nearly 90 per cent of all their dairy work,
the hired help of all kinds amounting to
only seven per cent. This is in strong
contrast to Massachusetts,, where the
farmers have 80 per cent of their dairy
work done by hired labor, or in Vermont,
where the hired labor totals q per cent.
The figures secured show that the aver
age Maine dairy farmer does n per cent
of ali his dairy work, while in Vermont
the dairy farmers do less than so per cent.
Wives of Maine farmers do between four
and five per cent of all the dairy work
without pay, which is seven times what
Massachuse is women are doing and con-
siderably more than Vermont women.

Memories of Prospect

At our last meeting of the Waldo
County Veteran Assn. August 5th, as l
stood where, in my boyhood days, l had
wandered up and down the street so
many times, my mind went back to the
| day left the good old town for the war,
81 years ago. AS l am the only one left
of that ten who went with me, as far as
+, know, tears dimmed my eyes. l was
+ river rs years ago and am living in what
then was West Prospect. Although liv-
ing in three towns since, l have never
moved from her soil. Stockton and Sears
port were then part of that town. Many
| times do l think of the grand old men,
Littlefields, Heagans, Smiths and many
wards. l will only recall one, Genl. S.
S. Heagan, as we used to call him. l
| can almost see him now sitting on that
horse at all the military gatherings.
worked for him in haying when but
twelve years of age for two shillings per
day. When done he paid me in silver.
That was the most money | had ever
seen and l flew down the road to my old
home.
Now, Mr.. Editor Just few words for
Prospect. At the late Veterans meet
ing in Prospect, l seemed to be the hon.
ored guest. When the good sister gave
the address of welcome, | was remem-
bered by her, while all seemed to hold
out the hand of welcome back to Pros
pect. Silver nor gold could not purchase
mat welcome from a few of those of my
old neighbors and those who had grown
up since left my Maine town for the
war. think they may have some reasons
for this When l left for three years in
the service of my country, and if need be
to give my life, went with this vow, |
would never drink strong drink, nor use
tobacco, and l can say to them now, l
never did. l cast my first vote in the
field for Abraham Lincoln. have always
cast my vote that way, and hope to live
and cast my vote this fall for Harding
and Coolidge.
! went to Stockton in her PALMER ship
building days, worked in the shipyards on
the ships that sailed the waters of every
ocean on the globe, with such grand old
sea captains as the Hichborns, Fletchers,
Staples, and many others gone to their
reward. recall the September gale some
so years ago that some of the old timers
will recall. was then at work on ship
building in Stockton for Capt. William
Hichborn The rigging and loading was
done at Standpoint. The master work.
man sent me as carpenter to help the
Triggers. When it came to the spreader l
had to 60 into the rigging. l can never
forget how scared was. l never let 60
with my left hand. How could man be
a sailor-not me.
Searsport, once part of Prospect, had
more sea captains so years ago than any
other town in Maine. Only few are left
of them. Searsport sent some of the
grandest men she had to protect the ma
ton. Some of them never returned
McGilvery, Whitcomb, Gray, and many
others. Most of them are gone and when
my time comes to 60 l ask to be laid to
rest beneath the handicapped hills of my
native town In the grand old State of
Maine. A. STINsON
