Die in other states with the fact that
coming to Maine in June, July and
August they need have no fear of be-

bears would tear their golf trousers
or the deer bite their children. The
writer remarked: Il never saw over
three persons anywhere VINO ever
saw a bear in the woods and the bear
was the more frightened Of the two"
Here the Fates interfered, and in
the next column there appeared bit

there has been a slight recession in

Deeper Remedy Needed
portland Herald)

The Augusta Chamber of Com
graduates of Cony High School urg-
ing them to locate in Augusta. The
idea is a good one so far as it goes,
but more is needed than letters and
accompanying booklets to keep the
Maine boys and girls in their home
cities and towns after graduating
from school.
The most valuable asset of any
community is its young men and
young women. To invest Maine
money in enterprises in other states
when the capital is needed for the
development of our own resources is
unWise, but somehow other money
will be found to invest in home en-
terpriseS. To allow our forests to
be wasted is a great evil but it can
be remedied in time by reforestation.
To allow Maine young men and
Maine young women to locate in
other states is an evil for which
there is no remedy The character
of Maine bred and Maine educated
young men and young women makes
them desirable the world over
They have built up other states
while the development or our own
has languished. When we allow
them to locate elsewhere great
power of ambition, of initiative and
enthusiasm has been taken from the
State that cannot be replaced.
There is another side Of the ques-
ton than that emphasized by the
Augusta Chamber Of Commerce.
That side is being brought out by
the State Chamber of Commerce in
It's new Maine program. The mere
appeal is not enough. To keep these
boys and girls among us something
more than the mere writing. Of let
tiers and circulation of booklets Is
necessary. The State of Maine and
it's farm homes and village and city
homes must be made attractive
enough to our young men and
women and Industrial. agricultural
and business and professional oppor-
tunities must be sufficiently devel-
oped in our own state to make these
young people desire more than any
thing else to stay in Maine. These
attractions must be kept before our
