Reflections Of a journal Reader
To the Editor of the Kennebec Jour

To the Editor of the Kennebec Jour
nal:
Your editorial in the Journal of
May 18th entitled Opportunity"
brings up a question deserving seri-
Gus consideration by everyone of
Augustus men and women. / notice
you have invited the officials of the
several local trade unions to throw
light on the subject of their supposed
practice of discouraging young men
entering into the various unionized
trades.
l sincerely trust they will avail
themselves of this opportunity and
doubtless they will do so, however, it
may not be out of place for a mere
citizen to express himself on this
momentus question until they (the
union officials) have had ample time
in which to make statement of
their side of the case. l. for one, will
await their pleasure in the matter
with deep interest.
| have recently been profoundly i'm
pressed by reports from England
where trade unions are much strong
er than in this country From all re-
liable press reports it would appear
that the unions are having things
much their own way there, and a
pretty mess they seem to be making
out of it. Shorter hours, less work,
more pay and restricted production.
these are the spectres that are beck
oning them on to destruction.
l am not opposed to trade unions,
they have their rightful place in our
national life for the betterment of
living conditions and the prevention
of deSradation-and slavery among
workers: but there is such a thing
as carrying matters too far in union
ism as in other organized efforts.
All observers of affairs as they
confront England at this time as a
nation must, if impartial, admit that
matters are assuming the aspect of
entering upon an unbound joy-ride Of
committing National suicide. All
that is necessary to do in order to
accomplish this alluring feat is for
producers to just quit producing or
to lie down on their jobs and do as
little work as possible as the vast
majority of organized workers have
been doing for long time.

them SO out of your hearts, for you

late Secretary of the Interior left
when he went out who will say that
because he left no estate his life was
not profitable one?

shall not have to go through the
experience of allowing many miles OF
our splendid gravel State highways
to deteriorate before the public
wakes up to the fact that money
must be furnished for maintenance.
II this cannot be done, as l had &C.
casion to say repeatedly last winter
to the members of the legislature
and before committees. the State
should abandon all further fattempt
at road construction. 1t seems to me
1t is folly to keep on spending money
for road construction unless adequate
provision can be made for proper
maintenance of these roads.
Yours very truly.

QUIT TOBACCO
SO easy to drop Cigarette,
Cigar, or Chewing habit

No-To-Bac has helped thousands to
break the costly. nerve-shattering to-
bacco habit. whenever you have a
longing for a smoke or chew, just
place a harmless No-To -Bac tablet in
your mouth instead. All desire stops.
Shortly the habit is completely brok-
en-, and you are better off mentally,
physically, financially. It's SO easy.
SO simple. Get box of No Te- BAG
and if it doesn't release you from all
craving for tobacco in any form. your
druggist will refund your money
without question.-Adv.

Highway Maintenance.
Augusta, May IS. 10

Augusta, May IS, 1921.
Editor, Kennebec Journal,
Augusta, Maine.
Dear Sir:
note in this mornings issue yopr
editorial relative to a more general
use of split log drags at the proper
time. The Highway Commission
have been giving this advice for
years and I am certainly glad to see
you comment editorially upon the
matter
1 had occasion to drive to Bangor
last Saturday afternoon and between,
Fairfield and Bangor passed three
State highway trucks drawing heavy
planners, which we have found to be
the best implement to smooth a
gravel or dirt road. The point I
desire to make particularly is that
although it rained all day Saturday
this work was being carried on. OF
course it was the proper time to do
such work.
l remember a trip I made on A
Sunday a year ago after several
days of rain. During the course of
the trip saw seven of the patrolnen
in the employ of the State Highwa y
Commission out dragging their sec
lions on Sunday. That was the
only day that the work could be done
satisfactorily. If they had waited
until Monday the road surfaces
would have been too hard to have
dragged.
Apropos of the general subject of
road maintenance I might add that
the Highway Commission is very
much disturbed at the present mo-
ment on account of the fact that It
appears that we shall have to take
off all of our extra crews. which
during the last two or three sea sons
we have kept busy with the resur-
facing of State highways. We And
ourselves with so little maintenance
money that it is either a case of
running the extra crews and the
patrol work until about September /.
or taking off the extra crews fiow
and keeping the patrol crews Oh a
little longer, maybe until September
Is or possibly October 1. This will
mean that practically no resurfacins
of gravel roads will take place this
season, except what can be done BY
the patrolmen.
This matter WIS brought to the
attention Of the legislature repeated
1y but no immediate relief was af:
forded. I certainly hope that w

What 1t Would Say

professor of botany was taking a
class of girls on a woodland walk and
was endeavoring to make them listen
to his identifications of the trees. One
gushing maiden paused before a giant
of the forest and burbled:
"Oh. dear professor, what would
this noble oak say if it could talk?"
The professor took look at the
tree. Then he replied
1T would say: L am an clm.'"-
