ADJUSTMENTS
ALICE LAKE AND
TOM SANTSCHI
AT COLONIAL

Two big stars on one bill is the I'M
usual combination to be offered the
patrons of the Colonial theatre today
when Alice Lake will be seen in "un-
charted Seas and Tom Santschi,
one of the most famous character
actors on the screen will appear in
Beyond the Trail"
An unforgcttable picture is the cor
rected valuation of "Uncharted Seas"
which has been adapted from the sto-
ny by the virile pen of John Fleming
Wilson.
1t is startling and beautiful, packed
with thrills that succeed each other
in a crescendo of interest; the stark
appeal of the frozen North, the locale
where the principals act out their
drama, is gripping. And the deft
acting of Alice Lake, lifts the picture
far above the average.
1t is nov eXaggeration to say that
"Uncharted Seas" is unique and will
long be unapproached. The story,
which originally appeared in Mum
sey's Magazine, is of three characters
sent to Behring Straits to find an
abandoned vessel holding ten millions
of klondike gold. and thus test a
mans character to discover whether
his cowardice holds an alloy of cour-
age The wife, the craven husband
and the sincere admirer furnish the
triangle.
In addition to this feature and the
Tom Santschi production, the Outing
Chester will fill its accustomed place
on the Wednesday program.-Adv.

the county fair scenes, which figure
conspicuously in the story, but was
at a loss as to how the people could
be obtained. There were only fifty
persons in the company, and at least
three hundred would be needed to get
the scenes over properly.
The difficulty was solved by Pho
tographer Charles Kosher, who sug-
gested that they advertise with plac-
ards throughout the town and coun-
tryside that an old fashioned county
fair was to be given by the company.
A thousand dodgers were struck off
by the town printer, with the result
that on the appointed day people
from far and near swarmed into the
village to "have their picture took
and earn the advertised three dollars.
1T would have been impossible to
get types as good in Los Angeles"
Director Powell stated. 1--WE paid
every adult that came three dollars
and two dollars to every child."-Adv.

Railroad Charter Extended

The Public Utilities Commission
has made public it's decision on the
application of the Mattawamkeag &
Northern Railway Co. for an extern
sion of it's charter, the order being:
That the corporate existence and
powers of the Mattawamkeag &
Northern Railway Co. be and they
hereby are extended for the term of
three years from the 10th day of
May, 1921"
The decision states that the petit
toner is incorporated as a street
railway company under the general
laws of Maine. Its articles of as
sociation were approved by the
Board of Railroad Commissioners
May 8, 1906; they were filed and
recorded with the certificate May 10,
1906. and the certificate issued on the
same day. 1t appears that work has
been done upon said road and large
amounts of money spent by the petit
toner during the years prior to war
times. Since the shortage of man
power and the tremendously in
creased costs caused by the warm
weather there has been a cessation
of work upon the railroad of the
petitioner. The evidence shows suf-
ficent reason for such cessation OF
work

| QUEEN OF GREECE
MOVES TO SUCCOR
GREEK REFUGEES

Saloniki. April 20-(By Associated
Press.)-Queen Sophie, of Greece,
head of the Greek Red Cross, recently
summoned members of the Greek
cabinet to the palace and demanded
that the government take steps to
prevent the distress of 10000 Greek
refugees from the Caucasus. now in
barracks on the hills of Kalamaria
near Saloniki, from becoming ma
tional disgrace.
In consequence of her action 1,000,-
900 drachmae equivalent to about
$4,000 at present rates of exchange)
were appropriated for the benefit of
the refugees and Is additional physi-
clans were sent to Saloniki.
The miserable condition of the ref
ugees had been reported to the Queen
by Colonel Odds, the American Red
Cross Commissioner for Europe, who
inspected their camp. Queen Sophie
then sent DR.. Thcophanos Aggelopou-
los, an eminent sanitary expert, as
her personal representative to take
charge of the camp. He brought
corps of ten physicians. Until that
time only one physician had admin
the refugees. There had been no one
to look after sanitation.
The American Red Cross has sent
to Saloniki Colonel Henry A. Shaw,
of the United States Army Medical
Corps, with party of physicians and
nurses to aid the Greek government
in the care of the refugees. Colonel
Shaw plans to gather ] 900 of the or
phans in old French barracks, sew
eral miles from the present camp
where the children will be given med
ical attention while food will be fur
nishcd by the Greek government.
The expense of this work will be
borne by the government.
Miss Lillian Spellman, a Boston
nurse, is conducting a Red Cross dis
pensary at the camp where she dis
tributes cans of milk and soon Will
distribute clothing to the small chill
dren.
Many of the refugees were lured
here by promise of rich lands in Mac
edonia but the majority fled from the
Caucasus before the advances of the
Bolsheviki and the Turkish Nation
ais under kemal Pasha.
The 10000 are huddled together in
barracks which were not intended to
hold half that number. a Red Cross
inspector who visited the camp re-
ports that disease such as typhus,
dysentery and influenza is prevalent
and that more than 1000 of the ref
ugecs died within a month
