most liberal provision for the COM
fort Of the old soldiers that was ever
framed by any government in any
age of the world" and recommended
that the encampment adopt a reso-
luton thanking Congress and the
President for its passage.
The women's associations allied
| with the Grand Army received I'M
stinted praise from the Commander.
| Their influence and work in our be-
, half has kept many post from dis
| banding and members from becom-
ing outcasts. Their charity has been
channels. The spirit manifested by
all these orders TO give aid and COM
fort to the old soldiers deserves our
gratitude and everlasting love-" he
said
The speaker made a strong protest
against the holding of games and
athletic sports on Memorial day. He
said:
1t would seem that the many hol-
| colleges and other Institutions Of
| learning should be SUFFICIENT for
manly sports and healthy recrea-
tions without desecrating Memorial
day. especially when parts of all the
other secular days of the year are at
their disposal for athletic enjoyment.
But notwithstanding this we find in
these institutions the very ones that
offend against good taste and respect
q &c 70 ho
plored because from these young men
will come forth the ruling spirits of
the future. and If the dead have no
claims upon their regard. it may not
be long before the flag will meet with
the same disrespect.
They need 10 be reminded that the
day was not ordained for sports but
to honor in a fitting way the dead
who by their sacrifice made it posi-
BILE for the American youth to enjoy
the blessings of liberal education
under a free government. The pub
lie should take cognizance Of this
lapse in our social order and sound
a protest that shall reach the ears
and conscience Of all offenders"
He expressed the belief that the
fact that the American Legion will
hereafter honor its dead in the same
devout manner will tend TO keep
alive the beautiful custom which had
its inception in the heart and brain
, Of General John A. Logan.
In a brief review of the SD Ma
tional Encampment at Columbus.
Commander Goulding mentioned the
vigor and keenness which still char
topic of discussion was the League Of
Nations in regard to which the Ma
tional G. a. r. adopted an almost
unanimous resolution declaring itself
. on record against 'entangling ALI
ances' with foreign countries and
that we are not concerned with the
! internal policies of those nations that
are continually at war on the other
side of the Atlantic
Whether its adoption was wise or
| unwise, the Grand Army is on record
as opposed to the covenant of the
League of Nations as it came from
Versailles unless the sovereign rights
of this Republic are safeguarded by
proper and clearly defined reserva-
tons said the Commander
He paid tribute in closing to the Of
fcers Of the department who have
served during the past year and es-
peciaily commended the Assistan,
Adjutant General and Quartermaster
General for his services.

SUPERIOR court
Wateryille. June Is

W dlSEN liIt, y u!c ~
Court came in at 10 o'clock this
morning. The case opened yester-
day afternoon was resumed. The
case was Bennett VS.. Mcclellan, and
Mark ]. Bartlett appeared for plain
tiff and Carroll y. Perkins for de-
PENDANT.
The issue in this case was what
was the contract in the purchase OF
a boiler by plaintiff of the defendant.
Plaintiff sued for the return of the
purchase price. 5000. He claimed
that the boiler was represented to be
100 horse power and would carry 12J
pounds steam pressure. His agent,
upon going to load the boiler, found
il in such condition that ne advised
the plaintiff not to accept the boiler,
and he did not move it and this suit
followed.
Defendant and his witnesses testi-
fed in regard to the condition of the
boiler and what use had been made
of it in the past. Mr.. Mcclellan
stated that he was asked no ques-
after he was paid for the boiler, but
merely expressed his opinion as TO
the qualities of the boiler. Defend
ant introduced testimony tending to
show that the boiler was 100 h. p.
and would carry 125 pounds of
steam.
A good many witnesses were
called and testified in support of the
contentious of the parties.
Verdict for defendant
The next case was Herbert l..
Merrill of Augusta vs.. Joseph Mich
aud of Frenchville. F. ]. c. Little
for plaintiff and Matthew McCarty
of Rumford for defendant,
: This suit was brought to recover
the price of bill of goods pur-
chased of plaintiff by defendant S

Last spring Mrs. Michaud was on
visit to Augusta and while there
went to the store of plaintiff and
purchased bill of goods. partly for
herself. and partly for a daughter of
defendant. She told plaintiff to send
the bill to Mr.. Michaud. her hus-
band, and he would send a check.
Plaintiff did so. but did not receive
his pay, so brought suit
