Warns New England
st. Lawrence Project

Sounding its warning that the pro-
posed st. Lawrence Transportation
power project looks dark for New
England, the new magazine. New
England Business" editorially takes
note of the uniformed state of the
business public to the issues in
yolyed and expresses fear lest this
big national question "be decided by
the West and South plus Washing
ton"
Chamber of Commerce men all over
New England are bending every eff
fort in an attempt to spread broad
cast complete information about this
proposition and Augusta is to have a
thorough discussion of the project at
the annual meeting of it's Chamber
OF Commerce on Wednesday, May
18th. by Henry p. Merrill of Portland,
who is nationally recognized as an
authority on the subject. To this
meeting all business men are well
come and the members of the Au-
gusta Rotary Club have been given
a special invitation by the Forum
Committee of the Chamber of Com
mercc.
AS pointed out by the writer re-
ferred to above, 1.-The business man
who is able to analyze the plan as to
ITS merits and dement's for New Eng
land Is hard to find. 1t is always a
difilcult matter to turn q mass con-
servatism into the dissection of an
apparently extraneous problem but
conservative New England must
shake the dust of a thousand minor
troubles from her eyes Immediately
and focus her attention on this cloud
from the northwest. If she fails to
do so and the lighting of uncertainty
proves to be the forked tongues of
Industrial collapse the blame will lie
on her own shoulders. New England
Enthusiastically is awakening to the
need of unified study Of her problems
and we are optimistic enough to be-
lieve that she wiz rise to this occa-
sion"

LAUGHS AT DROUTH.
RUST, LOW PRICES

An explosion of a she'll during the
St. Mihiel drive in September, 1918,
sent Corporal Fielder Davis, Goth in
fantry, to the hospital, with a frac-
tured bone in his left leg. The mis-
hap untitled him for service and he
was discharged from the army, unable
to return to his former occupation as
lineman. In addition, his education
was decidedly meagre, and Davis was
sent from the army in a very gloomy
frame of mind.
The Veterans bureau, district No.
10, at Minneapolis, learning of his
case, took steps to inform the disabled
veteran of his rights under existing
laws. He was assisted in filing a
claim and subsequently was %adjudged
in need of vocational rehabilitation by
reason of a disability caused by the
service. =.
Davis was ambitious to become a
farm M and he was given 81
months training at the Minnesota ag-
r%icultural college. Through saving a
part of his pay, he was able to pur-
chase on contract eighty acres of land
in North Dakota. From experience
in his agricultural course and obser-
walton of crop conditions of the last
few years in North Dakota, he decided
against putting all of his eggs in one
