More Clinics in Maine

That the present number of five
clinics for the treatment of venereal
disease in Maine cities, shall as rap
idly as possible be increased to %, is
the plan of Dr. H. E. Hitchcock. di-
rector of the Division Of Eenereal
Disease of the Maine Department of
Health. Dr.. Hitchcock IS at present
conducting an energetic campaign
among the larger communities of the
State to arouse interest to the point
of undertaking the support of such
clinics on a $3.50 basis, shared by
them and by the State.
The five clinics now esta blished at
Bangor, Portland, Augusta, Bath and
Calais average 200 monthly treat
ments and their efficiency is con-
stantly on the increase. Such
clinics are for the protection of the
community at large. aiming to stamp
out this highly dangerous disease.
DR.. Hitchcock lays emphasis on the
fact that the benefit to the individual.
however much to be desired. is sub
ordinate to the benefit to the city or
town. Such clinics are leading
factor in raising the standard of pub
lie health and the establishment of a
score or more of them in Maine
communities is a big step in the
right direction.
Lewiston, Rockland, Sanford and
Waterville are on the verge of put
ting such clinics into operation while
the attitude of the people in the
towns Of Brunswick, Pennington,
Pressure Isle. PASSPORT, Houlton.
Millinocket. SkoWhegans Milo, South
Paris, Bridgton. Greenville Junction.
Guilford, Rumford and Biddeford is
highly encouraging towards the es-
tablishment of clinics soon.
The plan that each community
shall establish an understanding with
some competent local physician to
give the treatments and that he shall
appear at the clinics at stated hours
and treat such patients as shall ap-
pear. is suggested by the State De-
partment of Health. It is hoped that
the expense of equipment. salaries
and other necessary expenditures will
be met on the $3.50 basis between the
State and the community,

ADJUSTMENTS
WILL ROGERS IN
WATER, WATER
EVERYWHERE"

There probably isn't any one who
hasn't read William p. Lishton's
Billy Fortune stories. They have
been about the most interesting and
thoroughly absorbing of any that
have run in 4 magazine for years.
Well, Billy Fortune is going to live
on the screen today at the Colonial
in the person of the inimitable viii
Rogers. His vehicle is the Goldwyn
play Water. Water. Everywhere"
which shows Billy Fortune just as
thousands have known him.
There is nobody just like Will Rog-
ers. His previous successes at the
Colonial have stamped him as one Of
the best performers Manager Apple
by has ever secured. In Water. Wa
ter Everywhere" he is better than
ever, which, of course, is SAYING a
great lot.
The story of this play centers
around small western town where
the women have declared war on De-
mon Rum and there is nothing to
drink but pink soda. HeN's Bells sa-
IOOIi lS NlldiISeu lLlO q par where Only
soft drinks are dispensed. Billy For
tune comes to town with toothache
and things begin TO happen.
Water, Water Everywhere" moves
with incredible speed. Not only is
tho story absorbing with its fun.
drama, pathos and romance. but it is
brimful of thrills of the thrillingest
kind. VIII Rogers is called on to do
some of the most daredevil broncho
riding ever shown on the screen. He
has many moments that are not quite
as strenuous, especially when he
draws the unlucky card that forces
him TO make love to a widow of
many previous husbands.
For real entertainment, with every
brand of acting put in, and all good.
there hasn't been a bill provided by
Manager Appleby in weeks that could
touch Will Rogers in Water. Water,
Everywhere"
The rest of the program is made
up of the 10th episode of The Lion

and Mrs. Wakefield waited upon
Governor Carl f. Milliken at about
noon on Wednesday at the state
House. They were met by the Gov
ernor in the office of his private sec
rotary, Capt Lester II. Hart, and
the simple ceremony there took
place Mr.. Gould said:
Your Excellency: l thought that
the State of Maine had all the relics
Of this kind of the Civil War here
in the State House, but / have here
a flag carried by Comrade George
Brown of the Sd Maine Infantry and
this is the flag of the Sd Maine. We
desire TO deposit it in the State
House so that it may have tender
care and be an additional memorial
to the men who served so gallantly
IN the war Of 1861 to 1865 We pre-
sent it TO the State as a testimonial
Of the gallantry of those men,
Governor Milliken responded:
Il am very glad to receive this
flag on behalf Of the State and wish
to express our appreciation of your
thoughtfulness in bringing il here.
II will be carefully preserved and
placed in the rotundA of the State
House with the other flags of the
Civil War"
II was learned that the old custo-
dian of the flag. George Brown, who
bore it through the fighting days of
the old Sd Maine, had carefully for
years cared for it and q few years
before his death, which occurred
about six years ago. had presented
it to T. W. Hyde Camp, Sons of Vet
Grams. of Bath, by which it had as
carefully been preserved.
The camp members thought that
it should take its place with the
other Civil War flags in the State
House and chose the occasion of the
State Encampmcnt of the Maine
Division for the time of presentation.
The flag shows its years and ser
vice. It came with the staff un-
Jointed and its folds wrinkled and
discolored, not only with age but
with the service of the days of 81 :
%. The staff is weather beaten and
rough. The flag itself is faded and
worn. 1t was eloquent in it's silent
story OF the days when the veterans
of today were Of the age of our re-
turned World War boys the rever-
ence paid it by the participants and
