'SUPT. STUART ACCEPTS
MELR0SE, MASS. POSITION

Herman II. Stuart, superintendent
of schools of Augusta, stated Thurs
day that he had accepted the offer
to the similar position at Melrose,
Mass. Within week recently, he
had two fine offers of superintendent
of schools from two Massachusetts
cities, the first col.ing from Taunton
and the second from Melrose. There
were large number of candidates
for both positions and it is fine
tribute to Mr.. Stuart's ability that
he was chosen for the Office. Melrose
is one of the fine residential cities of
greater Boston, and the position
which he will occupy is at substan-
tial increase in salary over that paid
in this city. Mr.. Stuart will tender
his resignation to the Augusta Board
of Education to take effect August
81.
It Is understood that a number of
candidates have already made appli-
cation for the Office Of superinten-
dent Of schools in this city which is
a desirable one in Maine from many
standpoints. The Board of Education
will meet in the near future to take
up the matter filling the position.

DR.. H. S. Johnson,
Formerly of Augusta, Tells
of Years Changes in City

Many interesting things regarding
Augusta as it was some so years ago,
were recalled yesterday by DR.. Il. l.
Johnson Of Hadley. Mass. who was
born and educated in this city and
was for years a practicing physician
here before moving..to Massachusetts.
DR.. and Mrs. Johnson have been max
ing a three weeks automobile trip
through Maine. stopping at the Ran
geley Lakes and other places. They
are now passing a few days in AL
gusta as the guests Of David Diplock
and his sister, Miss Lena DiploclS, on
North street.
Dr.. Johnson moved from Augusta
about 25 years ago. Previous to this
visit, he has not been here to stop
for q period Of 10 years, and he spoke
of the many changes that had taken
place here in that length Of time. The
doctor was formerly city physician Of
Augusta.
When DR.. Johnson resided in Au-
gusta the Central House was one Of
the comfortable hotels Of the city. The
hotel was established by DIR. Johnson's
grandfather, Levi Johnson, and was
later conducted by DR.. Johnson's
father, l.. C. johnson. It was one of
the first, If not the very first, of the
prohibition hotels in Maine. for as DR..
Johnson says, ut took some nerve to
hang out prohibition sign in front
of hotel in those days" The hotel
was located on the lot at the corner Of
State street and Western avenue, now
owned by Lewis Burleigh.
DR.. Johnson resided in the house
on the lot at the corner Of Western
avenue and Chapel street, where the
Lyman Weever house was afterwards
built. In those days, there were not
nearly as many houses on Western
avenue as there are today, and there
We're no houses between DR.. Johnson's
house and tho Central House, which
was later named the Park Hotel. DR..
Johnson remembers that in those
days. Melville stree, although laid out
'and called q street. was grown up to
grass so that it was not much more
than 4 path.
Or. Johnson and his wife, who was
formerly Of Fairfield are greatly en-
iOying their stay in Augusta and vi
cinity and arc renewing acquain-
tanccs. They will return to their
homo in q few daye:

Party of Is Children
of Maine Home Society
Hold Picnic at Southport

A grand good time was enjoyed by
about Is children of the Maine Chill
dren's Home Society of Augusta and
vicinity, who had their annual pic
mic and outing Thursday at South
port, making the trip on the steam
er Virginia. Although the weather
was cloudy when the start down-riv-
er was made, it cleared by noon when
the party arrived at Southport. John
p. Henderson of Gardiner donated
the use of one of his cottages for
the occasion, and there was n boun-
tiful repast was served at noon.
The young people had about two
hours at the seashore before the
Virginia returned from Eoothbay
Harbor to take them to Augusta. and
the time was passed most happily
playing baseball and other games. It
was a delightful ride on the Kenne-
bee steamer and very pleasant out
ing in every way. Accompanying the
young people We're w. c. Hawes Of
Augusta, superintendent of the socie-
tv. Mr.. and Mrs. George Ga, Mrs
r. J. Upton, Mrs. Alice sheldon. Mrs.
Moore and Mrs. Holmes, all Of this
city.
The transportation Of the party
was provided for through tho gener-

Boothbay Steamboat company. Mrs
Sheldon and Mrs. Gay solicited funds
for the picnic dinner and had MANY
willing helpers il providing the food
for the young folks.

HUGE ELECTRIC OVEN
INSTALLED in BAKERY
WEBER & HEWETT STORE

Electricity is doing all the work in
the Weber & IIewett bakery.
Thoroughly up-to-date in everything
this firm has just installed a huge
electric oven for the cooking of its
many diversified bakery products. 1t
is now in complete operation and is
turning out loaves of bread by the
hundred, cookies, cakes and the many
other things that come from a bakery
So far as is known, there is no other
bakery in this section of the State
equipped with on electric oven 1t is
also interesting to note that the Web
Der & Hcwctt oven is the largest sim
gle unit turned out by the. manufac-
turerS.
The over has three baking compart-
ments. The heat may he regulated in
each independently of the other so that
one article which may require 400 de-
grees of temperature may be cooked
while another that needs only $50 de-
grees is also being cooked right above
it. The usual devices for the control
of the heat are provided.
But the oven is only one Of the sew
eral electrical bakery appliances used.
The huge mixer for bread dough, the
beater for cake and the stove for the
frying of doughnuts are all operated
by electricity.
New Quarters have been provided
for this branch of the Wcbber & Hew-
cit store which are much lighter and
more commodious than the old ones
Everything in the room is glistenng
white. almost to the point of being
dazzling. A revolving electric ventila-
tor suck all the odors out doors over
the Kennebec so there will be none
floating through the building.
OF course the chief interest centers
around the oven and what it can do.
No real test Of its maximum capacity
has been made. but it will hold 140
double loaves of bread. Thirty minutes
are required to bake the bread so that.
in an eight-hour working day 2240
double loaves may be baked-certainly
over 1000 without rushing much. The
heat is better and the product tastier,
according to the bakers.

on record.
But these are only a few of the
