JACKMAN, Me.-Booze is flowing
through Maine like water through
fire-hose.
And, of course, it's Canada's fault
because Canada grew so near to
Maine.
Maine is celebrating it's one hun
dredth birthday this year and the
celebration seems likely to continue
for a long time unless the hootch
supply in Canada gives out.
Maine prospers. Tourists are thick
grown on the farms and washing it
down with Canadian hootch supplied
by the natives. What could be more

and the hotel was damned to the
guards. Down the street Jackman
was enjoying itself at the weekly
dance. All was quiet and lovely as
the sun slowly sank behind the ma
jestic pine trees of the Maine woods.

of automobiles began to appear. One

and on and on they came, one Whirl-

no noise but the whirring of the
motors.

In the opinion of rate and financial
experts, increases in the prices of
necessities Of life as the result Of
the new freight rates soon to go into
effect, will be entirely unjustif1ed
Translated to Individual cases, the
experts declare, the increase in
freight rates will be so small as to
be virtually insignificant.
The Southern News Bulletin, pub
lished by the Southern railway sys-
tenn, sets forth in detail the effects
of increased freight tariffs on the
costs of necessities and quotes the
G1rard letter, published by the Girard
Trust company, of Philadelphia, to
the effect that "a rise in freight
rates might be used as an excuse
by dealers for boosting food and
clothing prices to consumers, but in
realty II would be almost impossible
TO translate such an increase to in
dividual gases because it would be
so small"

tinues.
Thus, man in Philadelphia who
Buys pair of shoes made near Bos-
ton would have to be taxed exactly
one-half cent for the extra freight
rate, that being the additional cost
OF carrying pair of shoes to him
from there.
"a man will pay SIS for theater
tickets, plus the fifty cents war tax

What war Tax Can DO
But that war tax alone on those
tickets would just pay for the extra
freight charge in carrying 100 suits
of clothes from the Philadelphia
maker to their Baltimore wearers.
Precisely half cent for the best suit
of clothes is what that 80 per cent
increase spells when the suit is car
r1ed by railroad, say 100 miles.

A sermon last Sunday by Rev.
Caleb A. Ridley, pastor of the Cen
trail Baptist church, in which the
city's pubic swimming pools were de-
nounced as "abominable hell holes at
night" and "scenes of unspeakable
immoralities," has brought caustic
counter-charges against the clergy
man and has stirred up sensational
controversy.
DR.. Ridley's statements declaring
that he had personally inspected the
pools and found flagrantly improper
conditions existing while the author
tiles "winked att the things that
would compromise any young Won
an" who entered the pools after
dark. were fatty denied in a resolu-
tion unanimously passed at a meeting
of the city council Monday afternoon
DR.. Ridley was condemned for his
sermon and for warning parents of
the city to keep the feminine mem
bers of their families away from the
pools, and in one clause of the reso-
luton, which was later F1~io'-0-7 'N"

Bailey, the father of sight swim,

not do so because . of Mr.. -Bailey's
'uncouth language" and~"uncouth at

at the council meeting all charges
brought by Dr.. Ridley, and had at
tackled the latter's personal character.
According to. the members Of the
park board, the illumination at the
pools makes them lighter than day.
Policemen and policewomen are, con-
ers whose conduct is unbecoming,
they say.
DR.. Ridley, ON the other hand, has
issued a statement subsequent to his
sermon in which he maintains that
he and others are able to prove all
the allegations made and that any
body else can establish the truth of
his assertions.

Hardwick Denounces
Opponents in Soeech
Before 400 at FORSYTH

FORSYTH, Ga, Aug. 3.-Thomas
W. Hardwick addressed an audience
of about 400 here Monday. He
was introduced by Ashley M. Out
law. a Watson supporter. Mr.. Hard
wick was listened to attentively and
frequently app1auded.
The speaker opened his speech by
announcing that he would base his
address upon the principles of De-
mocracy and Americanism, and, be-
fore concluding, would pay his re-
spects to his opponents.
He spoke with great bitterness
concerning Clark Howell and others,
and stated that in time he would see
that they are f1attened to such an
extent that even the angel Gabriel
would not be able to resurrect them.
