The play for the piano fund OF the
primary school. which has occupied
the attention of cur people for the
past few days. was given last night
at the Temple theater to q large and
interested audience.
The little play was as delicate and
sweet as a Cape Cod Maytlower and
was presented by six girls with q
finish and charm worthy of those
with much more experience.
For those who were not there a
brief resume might not be amiss. The
scene is in Plymouth, the time. mid
summer eve. few years after the
landing of the Pilgrims. Molly, the
merry little Irish step-daughter Of
one of the Pilgrim Fathers, was de-
lightfully impersonated by Ruth War
ner. Molly believed in fairies and SO
did we after seeing what believing
does for as. Ruth Collins as Ann,
the orphan daughter of parents who
had died of hardships and exposure,
was pathetic in her homesick yearn-
ing for England There were great
estates awaiting her could she only
prove her right to them. Her dearest
treasure was a fan on which was
painted the pictme of a lady in a
French court costume. Her mother
had told her to guard it with care.
Chivalette Smith as Prudence, Mea
Dozier Halle as Priscilla, were model
little Puritan maidens. Margaret
Hooker as ''The Little Pink Lady, of
the fan. looked as tho she had stepped
from miniature instead of a fan.
The longing Of Ann for England, the
girlish wish for a little gaiety In
spite of their Puritan training and
conscience, the merry daring Of Molly,
prompted them to make a wish for
the midsummer fairies to make true.
Molly led off with wish that the
Pink Lady might come to life and lead
them In a dance, which really happen
ed, and they danced the minuet, the
gay Little Pink Lady and the demure
little maidens. She waived an airy
farwell, told Ann to cheer up, and
went back into the fan. Ann looking
closely into the folds of the fan
found paper proving her right to
her estates and all ended happily.
0cala is indebted to the primary
school for the privilege of seeing a
play so altogether pure and lovely.
Mrs. Frederick Hooker had it IN
charge and to her is due the careful
and finished work of training the girls
and the artistic presentation of it as
whole. To Mrs. Cole is due our ap-
probation of the music of the minuet
A substantial sum was added to the
piano fund of the primary school,
which goes to the buying of new
piano so badly needed.

DENIES OIL RIGHTS
CONCEDED TO BRITISH
Member of Netherlands Legation
Says Dutch Capital Is Now
Seeking Concessions.

| Companies which have or are seek
ing concessions in the Netherlands
oil fields are either made up of Dutch
nationals or are controlled by Dutch
capital, according to Jonkheer w. H.
de Beaufort, charge d'affaires of the
Netherlands legation, here.
He says that the Dutch govern
ment has not conceded a monopoly
Of the Djambi oil fields to the British
trust, and explains that the Dutch
government now is asking parlia-
mentary. sanction for contracting for
the exploitation of the fields with
the Bataafsche Company, a subsidiary
of the Royal Dutch Company, a
purely Dutch corporation Sixty per
Company is in Dutch hands. This
latter company Is managed by a
! board of eleven members, consisting
! of eight Dutchmen and three English
men.
! The Netherlands minister for colon
! les in statement before the public
session of the second chamber of the
Dutch parliament, explaining the or
Sanization and control of the various
companies, said:
THE group. known as the konin-
klyke-Shell, or Royal Dutch She'll
consists of three main companies and
various subcompanies, the former be-
ing: The Bataafsche. the producing
company: the Anglo-Saxon Petroleum
Company. who looks after the trans
port, and the Asiatic Petroleum Com
pany. the sellers of the products.
THE capital Is. held in the proper
tion of so per cent by the konin-
klyke an d4 0per cent by the Shell.
The Koninklyke and Shell are also
direct holders in some of the sub
companies. in the same proportion as
mentioned above. 1t is, therefore. of
Importance to know to what extent
the koninklyke is pure Dutch
company.
'In the first place. the Dutch char
acter is safeguarded in the statutes
by the stipulation that the preference
shares must be held exclusively by
Dutchmen. For the rest. the majority
of the ordinary capital-although it
may be said that it is spread over the
whole world-is. according to the
payments on the coupons. held in
Holland. During the war the British
government bought up some of the
shares held by the English public in
order in this way to improve the rate
of exchange on Holland on the pound
sterling. These shares have, how
ever. since then all been liquidated at
the Amsterdam exchange. In the sec
ond place. the Dutch character of the
Koninklyke is safeguarded by the
composition of the management"

Habits in Schools Next Year.

Introduction of a course in hygiene
In the elementary public schools is
being planned by Supt. Frank w. Bal
lou. it was learned today. Steps to
form such course already have been
taken by a committee headed by DR..
Rebecca Stoneroad, director Of physi-
cal training.

ton Is being planned as a result of

lished, 1t is proposed to organize spe-
cial nutrition clinics in as many
schools as possible in order that the
anemic and underweight children can
be given special attention by school
medical inspectors and nurses. Six

For ten days these armed men had

Argument For and
Against Lower Rates
on Grain and Hay

Washington, Sept. 2.-Attorneys for
the railroads and for the shippers
gave oral arguments before the Inter
state Commerce Commission today at
hearings on the proposed reduction Of
freight rates on grain and hay, said
that reduction would throw many
western roads into bankruptcy Attor-
news for the shippers declared that
production would be lessened and the
roads would suffer from reduced trait
fc if the present rates were continued.
r. H. Widdicombe attorney for the
Chicago Northwestern, said assertions
that present rates would result in a
decreased acreage next yeas were
very speculative" Prices, he added,
were governed by supply and demand
and not by freight rates. The pres
ent low prices for grain were due. he
said, to reduced exports as result
of conditions in Europe.
J. E Davis, representing the Chica-
go, Milwaukee & ST. Paul, said west
ern roads this year had expended 95.hi
rer cent of their revenues. for operat-
ing expenses which. he added. proved
that there can be no general reduc-
tion in rates
Witnesses have shown he said
that the benefit TO the farmer from
reductions asked would run from SS
TO S56 a year for each farmer. No
one will contend that this is a sub
stantial aid to the farmer. but A 25
Ter cent reduction would mean an ar
nual loss In revenues of over s63-
0r00o0 to the carriers and would cat
the net return to 1.42 per cent"

cent immoral and impure show or
entertainment, manifestly tending to
corrupt the morals of youth
| Mr.. Eaton in his testimony said
that complaints were being made
against the place on Monday and he
kvisited there. More complaints came
in and Thursday afternoon about 5
O'Clock he visited the show again and
as a result he swore out the warrant.
John Nelson Esq, of Augusta repre-
sented Mr. Williams.
Frank E. Haines when asked in re-
gard to the affair said that Harvey ID.
Eaton made personal complaint
against Mr.. Williams for conducting
an immoral show at the Arabian
Nights tent. Complaints had been
made before and the management of
the fair went to Mr.. Williams and
they together went to the show. Er.
Williams said then that he would not
put on anything not absolutely moral
Mr. Haines said that the State of
Maine had representative at the fair
grounds to censor the shows. this be-
ing done through the department of
agriculture. This man passed upon all
the shows and games and called them
all O. X Mr.. Haines said that the
management of the fair feels that it is
a blot on the fair and disgrace to the
fair that such a complaint should be
made by citizen of Waterville, who
is a director of the fair association
and who knew that the state had
passed upon all the amusements and
had endorsed them as proper.
Five days of perfect weather have
done much to give an impetus to the
fair and courage to the officials after
th6--+lisastrous weather of two years
ago when ii rained the entire week.
The comparison between the fair of
today and that of 1905 is made inter
esting by the fact that in that year
there were just six automobiles on
; the grounds. A gate was made through
the fence around the track and man
stationed there to sell tickets. He sold
50 worth of tickets and his bill was
$50. 1t was considered dangerous
by the fair management to allow the
automobiles to come inside the
grounds as it was feared that they
would run over someone.
