CITY CAMPING GROUND
A BOON TO TRAVELLERS

Augustus camping ground for
tourists is becoming popular. Three
couples were in camp there ON Sat-
urday. Mr. and Mrs. A. d. Burke
and Mr. and Mrs. j. p. G. Freeman,
travelling from Santa Maria. Cal.
through Nova Scotia and New Bruins
wick, were in one party, using two
ears. They had quite bit Of origi-
nal equipment and were using a
wind protected gasoline stove and
other devises. They were welcomed
by committee from the Chamber of
Commerce made up of Ralph Brown
and Secretary G. c. Clarke, who hap
pened to be down that way.
In the afternoon, Secretary Clarke
received visit from DR.. G. II. Hen
derson Of Chicago, member of the
Dental profession, who is making
tour of the. country making lectures
and demonstrations Of a new process
for taking impressions for artificial
teeth. He is to make such demon
stration this week at the convention
of the Maine Dental Society which
will be held here Tuesda.-. Wednes-
day and Thursday. Mrs. Henderson
is making the trip with DR.. Hender-
son.
DR.. Henderson states that this
camping is a novel experience with
him He never touched his hand to
the steering wheel of a car previous
to May Gath and he started from
Chicago on the 2Sth of May, making
Swamscott on Sunday the 4th of
June, Just one week later, an average
distance of 200 miles day. He has
an original idea in campbeds, using
the seats Of his automobile and
small trunk as a bed, enclosed entire
~ within the car.
The treatment of this camping
park by small boys during the winter
has been a disgrace to the commun-
itv. Secretary Clarke reports that
not only were the toilet bowls brok-
en-, but the fireplaces We're torn up
somewhat and the water faucet
knocked off with bar of iron. This
is pure vandalism. Arrangements
arc being made to put the camping
site in Charge of a competent care
takcr.

URGE PASSAGE OF
MARKETING BILL
Senator Fletcher Says That Is Only
Satisfactory Way TO Solve
Farm Problem.
NV GEO. H. MANNINel

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The pas
sage Of the farm marketing bill, to
authorize associations of producers Of
agricultural products, was urged by
Senator Duncan u. Fletcher in a
speech in the senate. The only way
to get any definite and satisfactory
method of marketing farm products,
Senator Fletcher said, is for the farm
ers to cooperate in getting their pro-
ducts to market instead of by ruth
less competition as at present.
1--WE have done very little toward
solving the problem, toward, estalb-
fishing some system of economical
distribution of farm products" he
said. "The bill now before the senate,
which has been passed 10y the house,
is step in the right direction and one
which in my judgment we should take.
1T provides that producers may or
ganize into associations, may incor-
porate, IL they like: that they shall be
privileged to cooperate for the purpose
OF processing, preparing for market,
handling and marketing their pro-
ducts in interstate and foreign COM
merce.
"The feature about it especially in
teresting in my mind is that it is based
upon the true principle Of cooperation.
IIf there are associations formed or
corporations organized they will not
be controlled by those having the
largest interest in these organizations.
A member of such an organization is
allowed one vote. He is not allowed
hore thar. One vote.
Il see no dansef of the farmers of
the country organizing in any way so
as to establish a monopoly in the dis
tribution Of their farm products" he
continued.
Il am cordially in full sympathy
with the ideas and the plans which
are back OF this bill. I do not agree
that it is necessary to amend the bin
as proposed by the committee in or
der TO avoid the establishment of a
monopoly and, I think it Is advisable
to place these associations or organi-
cations outside the provisions of the
Sherman antitrust laws

HOLLYWOOD COLONY
IS in THE LIMELICHT
Murder of Taylo- Has Turned
Public Eye to Movie Suburb
of Los Angeles.
AN rhs AssoeIated Pressl

Los ANGELES, Feb. 9--The recent
murder OF Wilson Desmond Taylor. wide
Iy known motion picture director, has
caused public attention TO turn toward
the picture colony at Hollywood here and
numerous inquiries about that colony and
the life of its people have followed.
Hollywood is the general name assigned
20 a section OF Los Angeles, lying about
eight miles from the downtown business
section. Many motion picture studios
are scattered through Hollywood and
thousands OF persons from all classes Of
society are employed at the studios.
Where SO many types are gathered,
there are all variations OF character and
morality. Some OF those who come 20
the lots as humble extras succeed be-
cause OF some trait of personality In
reaching stardom almost before they have
become known generally in the industry
itself. Sometimes IL is real ability that
drives them upward.
Sometimes It Is the favor OF director or
producer; sometimes 1t is a pair of cross
eyes or funny legs or unusual size that
provide the needed leverage for the lift
TO success.
When people spring from poverty to
afnuence. often within few weeks, their
mental equipment is not always equal to
the strain. They have money, an I'M
accustomed toy. and they spend IL in
bizarre ways. They may buy automo-
biIes OF the usual styles and finishes
known in the trade here as "movie trick
machines or they may take to having
wild parties or they may indulge In
other forms of relaxation and excitement
Many Of them spend all they make. One
well known male star testified in the d.
vorce court recently that he was getting
$500 week; he said he had $500 in bank
as pay day had just passed, that he had
three automobiles, an extensive ward
robe and no other assets.
Motion picture people themselves admit
that immoral and sometimes perverted
persons are TO be found in the industry,
but they insist that the percentage OF
these are relatively small and that only
their position in the public eye has them
at all conspicuous. It is not denied that
some drug users are connected with the
industry. but the producers take the posi-
ton that these persons are being climb
mated as opportunity offers.
There are, however. scores and hum
dreds OF motion picture people who live
lives in no way dissirnilar to those OF
other American householders, they go to
tho studios, do their work, return to nor
NAL homes and spend their evenings at
theatres, at home, at clubs or in ordinary
pursuits.
Everybody has heard the query what's
tho matter with the movies7" and OBJ
servers in Los Angeles think they know
the answer. In their belief the trouble
with tho motion picture industry is the
lTescnce within Il Of relatively small
prcportlon or people whose senses were
Lcclouded hy sudden prosperity: the lack
% ~ = -
for standard OF morality to be observed
~ their employees: the lack of thrift and
the presence of extravagance: and the
fact thar character has not been demand
ell ly either producers or public as an
element 10 success.
