EMMA FREEMAN LEWIS. t

Miss Emma Freeman Lewis, daughter
of Freeman Atwood and Ellen Augusta
(ChicA Lewis, departed this life at the
home of her brother, Elisha Chick Vose,
Concord. N. H., on March 10, 1921.
Miss Lewis was born in md-ocean,
near the Pelew Islands, on July IA, 1852,
while Capt Lewis with his. ship, Ellen
Noyes, was en- route to Calcutta. Capt.
Lewis was afterwards stricken with
fever, and died at the Chincha Islands.
Jan. 80, 1854. The widow and baby
daughter returned to the home of her
father, Elisha Chick, at Winterport, ac-
companying the remains
Miss Emma was an apt pupil in her
school days and attended Mt Holyoke
college. She began teaching when quite
young, and was for years a teacher in
the Hannibal Hamlin school in Bangor,
later being elected principal, from which
position she retired after 3o years. ser
vice on pension. Her commanding pres
ence in the scool room won for her the
esteem of those she instructed, and Miss
Mary S. Snow, former superintendent of
Bangor schools pays her this compliment:
Il, who worked shoulder to shoulder with
you al tioSC yCiiS, hHO" TIC iultRIlly,
the superiority and fineness of your work
with the children under your charge"
A woman of erstwhIle purpose she
was efficient in whatever she undertook.
Her sterling characteristics were evil
denced in every sentence she uttered.
She was interested in every progressive
measure which would benefit the COM
munity and was conversant with State
and national affairs
She was woman of wide culture and
had travelled extensively. She was es-
peclally Interested in art, and in 1895
toured Europe, devoting much time to
this study.
She suffered slight shock three years
ago, recovering apparently without seri-
GUS results. She was again stricken in
January of this year, and, hoping a
change would benefit her, was removed
from her home in Bangor to Concord, N.
H., where she failed rapidly. The inter-
ment will be in Oak Hill cemetery, VIM
terport beside her parents.
The voyage of life is ended,
The waves here have ceased to roll;
She has entered the haven eternal,
The harbor of the soul.

Smart Sport Toggery
Dressy Sport Suits Answer Many De-
mands. Vogue Of Matching Pieces.
Uncrushable Silks. New Hats.


NEW YORK. April 4. Not the least at
tractiye part of the Easter showings of
Spring and Summer models, are the SO
called "Sport suits" which answer for
many other purposes, and are extremely
dressy and effective developed in durable
silks designed particularly for this wear.
Even the sober matron can indulge her
fancy for gay and becoming colorings in
such attire, while the junior contingent,
find striking or prim effects to suit their
particular type. 1t is odd but true that
demure attire that would add years to her
mothers appearance often increases the
youthful effect of girl 'in her teens"
This doubtless accounts for the exploita-
ton of the quilted black satin coats for
girls in the flapper stage that are faddish
just now.
Pretty Sport Rig.
A smartly designed sport suit, built of
cheney twill silk, has the coat in figured,
the skirt in plain matching fabric and the
dressy little blouse shows when the coat
is opened is in brilliant rose crepe to
match the large rose colored figure that
sets off the navy ground of the silk.
Following a mode introduced in Pasis,
the parasol and hat are made of the same
materials employed for the costume.

Bird Notes

AS the summer approaches thoughts of
birds become manifest. Most of us look
upon them with too little concern, and
wi tn total disregard of their worth to
community. From an economic stand
point they are more valuable than most
of us realize. Aside from the Joy they
bestow because of their beautiful plu-
mage and sweet tones, the birds area
great aid to the farmer. They save him
thousands of dollars yearly by killing in
sects and parasites so ruinous to fruit
.trees In this connection the following
icomment upon their relation to the farm
'er is interesting and timely: Howard M.
Canoune, chairman of the Netherwood
bird sanctuary of New Jersey, writing to
the New York Herald, and relying on
John Burroughs as his authority, asserts
that without the song birds, including
robins, there wouldn't be any fruit, in
cluding cherries. The farmer, according
fly, only holds second mortgage on the
cherry, and is in small business when he
grumbes because the birds levy tribute
on his fruit. Were the millions of BUSH
els of bugs says Mr.. Canoune, which
the song birds of the State consume for
food in one season released, the forest

He evidently anticipates that objections
will be made that this statement is too
broad, for he adds: I can hear your cor

Arizona with medicine dropper as to
clean all the trees of all outdoors with
spray, and even if it were possible, how
would the rest compare with what the
birds eat? Better feed the birds and
spray the cats Prejudice against the
robins has died out considerably in recent
years, owing to the fact that he has
grown so tame and friendly and COM
panionable, since he has learned that he
is under the protection of the law. He
may take his toll of fruit, and sometimes
even hea yy-toll, but his complete dis

Fabric hats are worn for all occasions
for dress as well as sport usage. One OF
their newest adornments consists of pond
lilies in colors that the natural flowers
never assume. A brimmed hat of dark
blue satin faced with silver gray cinder-
ella silk has the brim adorned with pond
lilies boasting petals of the contrasting
silks, and finished with the stamins and
pistils of the natural yellow centers of
these blossoms.
Silver gray and black lilies are espec-
cially smart where THIS fetching contrast
is used for costume, while smartest of
all are black lilies with Innings of white
to go with the piebald dresses that are
always in the running.
Sport suits showing a white skirt top
ped by black coat or blouse of crepe
Jersey are especially new and popular
with the discriminating, now that all
crepes are to the fore both here and in
Paris.
One thing that has increased the wear
ing of silk for sport use, is that it cleans
SO perfectly, coming out practically new
after every visit to the cleaner.
