Anothe. Flight Of
Ducks Arriving at
Merryneeting Bay

Another flight of ducks is begin
ming to arrive at Merrymeeting bay,
including many gray ducks. Mon
day many Bath gunners tried their
luck with varying success. Alonzo
G. Fisher shot three black ducks;
Randall w. Leonard and Fred Ring
got seven; Roland Drawn and John
Conway killed eight; Charles Gehan
and Alonzo Parks bagged four; Ber-
nard McCausland got one.
The trouble at the bay, according
to real hunter. is that the gunners
stand up in their floats and chatter
and in other ways do not act as a
gunner should. Ducks are not
fools he said. IF they can spot q
little thing like a decoy it stands to
reason the sight of a man is a noun
tain in their eyes"

Light Practice Today
Before Cony Battles
Heavy Lewiston Team

The squad that Coach Thompson
will take with him to the Spindle City
tomorrow to represent Cony High in
their game with the Lewiston High
eleven will be put through light sig
program of the past week will be
eased up in order that the men may
be fresh for the big game.
Saturdays battle will be the first
that Cony High has fought with
Lewiston for many years. Lewiston
is said to have a fast team of big
men, with six veterans of last year
forming a nucleus for the eleven.
Coach Thompson has spent the
week perfecting the plays already
taught the team, and smoothing up
the defects shown in the game with
Lawrence last week. There has been
little attempt to try NV formations,
as it is the policy of the Augusta
coach to Grill his men thoroughly in
the fundamentals of the game instead
of trying to work too many plays in
the early season. There has been
scrimmage every day this week, and
special attention has been paid to
linework. puntins and passing. Don
Brennan has been doing some drop
kicking and shows up well at this
game.
The squad was strengthened We'd
nesday afternoon by the addition Of
Murray Randall, a letter man last
year, who played on the first tenn at

He has shown up we'll in practice,
and will probably figure in the game

Quincy was placed on probation for
the space of one year, on payment

Service Letter
Outlines Work of
Chamber of Commerce

TIL recent activities of the Au
gusta Chamber of Commerce and a
number of the matters which must
be undertaken as a part of the pro-
gram of the organization are out
lined in the latest service letter of
the Chamber which is being sent out
to the members. 1t reads as fol-
lows:
Free auto camp-Augusta has
joined the ranks of those progressive
cities which provide suitable camp
ing space for automobile parties.
No particular benefit accrues to a
town from tourist travel unless the
tourist stops long enough to gain
some permanent impression. The
object of the camp is to get folks
to make an overnight visit in our
city They become the city's guests.
Our camp is well equipped with
electric lights, fireplaces, running
water, chemical toilets and ample
camping space for regiment. One
hundred and fifty signs pointing the
way to the camp are ready and will
be placed at all principal junction
points.
Garbage colIection-The Chamber
of Commerce has finally attacked the
question of garbage collection and
disposal in Augusta. This question
is among the very first to force it
self upon public attention in the
evolution from a small town to a
large city. Augusta is growing and
it is high time that we took thought
of this problem. The personnel of
the committee is unusually strong,
and is as follows: j. F. Bagley,
chairman; w. S. Wilson, DIR. G. A
COMBS, George w. Merrill. Mrs. r.
H Bodwell, Ami Casavant, NJ. s.

JEWISH NEW YEAR
STARTS SUNDAY

beginning Sunday evening, Oct. 2,
and continuing until Monday eve
ming at sunset, Jews the world over
will observe their New Year. Among
orthodox Jews, a second day will, in
addition, be observed on Tuesday,
Oct as New Year. The vast ma
iority Of Jews regard the New Year
as one of the two most significant
Holy, Days in the Jewish calendar,
ranking with the day of Atonement,
which occurs 10 days later, as the
most solemn in the Synagogue.
Among the orthodox Jews, there
is an interesting survival of an an
cient practice dating, it is said, from
the 18th century, called Tashlich, in
accord with which a congregation
foregathers along a stream or some
body of water and symbolically casts
list sins into the depths.
American Jews will observe the
New Year by public worship in
synagogue and temple, and by ex-
change of greetings on the part OF,
friends and relatives in the home.
