WILL TELL THE
TRUTH ABOUT THE
JAP QUESTION

A lecture of the greatest value and
interest will be given at the Win
throp street Universalist church on
Tuesday evening by DR.. Thomas E,
Potterton of Brooklyn. The subject
will be picturesque and Progressive
Japan"
DR.. Potterton has spent many years
IN Nippon and is regarded as an au-
thority on the island and the peo-
pie. At this time, when the whole
country is stirred over the Jap stu
alton on the Pacific coast and what
Japan intends to do with her in
creased navy, there is more than
ordinary interest attached to the
coming to Augusta of a man whose
word carries conviction. 1t was emily
by the rarest good luck that the Uni
versalist Associates under whose
auspices the lecture is to be given.
were able to secure this brilliant and
interesting speaker.
The price of the tickets is so small
that nobody, whether interested in
the subject or not can really afford
to miss the lecture. More than that
it will be illustrated by some wonder
full views of Japan.-Adv.

Bill Hart in Big Play
At Opera House

l'or all Bill Hart is playing a role
mach different from those in which
ic is usl ally seen in The Cradle of
Courage which will be presented for
The last times at the Augusta Opera
house today, he is just as popular as
he has been in his other productions
The many people who attended the
theatre yesterday will testify to this.
The famous screen favorite has the
role of a one-time Crook of the
cleverest kind who has been reformed
after his tour of duty in France. He
comes back with new vision of life
and determines to clean up" the old
gang and to do it, he gets q Job on

do mighty good job in the role of
Square" Kelley, but the play is con-
vincingly interesting. Ann Little and

Hoot Gibson is also on the program

ADJUSTMENTS
EARLE WILLIAMS
DOES EVERYTHING
IN LATEST PLAY

There are number of reasons why
Earle Williams is so popular with
thousands Of motion picture fans. He
is Versatile actor, he is clever in
comedy dramatic roles, he is rip
ping engaging lover and he is a star
athlete. In 1.-The Romance Promo
ters," the Vitagraph feature in which
he will be seen at the Colonial theatre
today, he contributes from all this
store of assets and puts across"
picture that is just the kind every
member of the family is always anx-
ious to see.
The theme of the play is a pretty
snappy one. for it concerns the desire
of Quentard Lorris, noted financier,
to promote romance for his daugh-
ried. In order to do this, he concocts
all kinds of schemes. He wants to
be sure the daughter will not fall
into the hands of some grasping ad-
venturer and at the same time he
wants the prospective son-in-law to
meet the rather exacting require
ments of the daughter. Lorris has
to play sick, then insane in order to
carry out his schemes and he takes
some pretty long shots in attempting
! to bring a pair of hearts together.
but he stages the stunt and things
/ come out fine and dandy. Earle Will
,'liams is seen in the role of the for
/ tunate candidate and he does a
smashing good job at it.
Still more comedy is provided on
the bill for today in "Over the Gar
den WALL" Star feature. The
! tenth episode of velvet Fingers
shows some interesting developments
and the Pathe Review offers more
good features.-Adv.

Health Hunting in Maine
BY Health Comr. Bristol

DR.. l.. ID. Bristol, commissioner of
health in Maine, has recently written
an Illuminating article on health
hunting in this state. which has just
appeared in THE Maine Woods" for
1921. He says:
Maine is the great vacation land
of the eastern half of the United
States. Thousands of men, women,
and children come each year from all
parts of America, seeking recreation
and re creation of mind and body in
the Pine Tree State.
Big fish and big game are not the
only good things found in Maine. A
goodly proportion &c sunshine; pure,
invigorating air. laden with the scent
of balsams; clear sr4rkling water
from mountain springs and lakes are
among the gifts which nature has
endowed this wonderful land with.
Here health is actually conta-
gious. This epidemic" of health,
started each summer in Maine, often
spreads to many sister states
throughout the country.
big lungs, strong hearts, hardened
muscles, soothed nerves, purified
blood, and rosy cheeks are some of
the things to be taken home after a
summer spent in the Maine woods.
There is no closed season on any of
these physical blessings to be found
in Maine. There is no limit to the
amount one can take out. No boun-
ty need be paid: no license is re-
quired; no residence fee is necessary.
Malaria is practically unknown in
this north eastern corner of the Unit
ed States Many obtain relief from
hay fever in Maine. Intestinal dis
eases are rapidly disappearing. a
marked reduction in most of the COM
municable diseases has taken place in
the last few years.
",The filthy fly has been declared an
outlaw in Maine. A recent decision
by a Justice of the supreme court
upheld the action of guest in refus-
ing to pay his hotel bill because of
too many flies in the dining room.
This decision will have n wholesome
effect on all hotel proprietors. and a
bad effect on all the flies and other
pestiferous insects. Maine is one of
the few states, if not the only ona to
hail the fly into court and obtain
judgment against him.
"The State Department of Health
of Maine carries on each year
n careful sanitary inspection OF
summer hotels and camps through
out the state, awarding GER
tificates of approval to those
places which comply with the rules
and regulations of the Department.
All public water supplies in the state
are examined several times each year
by the Department The state is d.
vided into eight health districts. each
in charge Of a full time, trained. dis
