Observe Anniversary
Birth Gen. Grant

On the twenty seventh day of
April of this year we celebrate the
hundredth anniversary Of the birth
OF great American. To the military
leadership and genius of General
Grant more than to that of any 9TH
or man do we owe the existence to-
day OF but one nation and one flag
in the territory occupied by the
United States.
While the observance of this day
and the ceremonies connected there
with are of especial significance to
the Grand Army of the Republic it
is nevertheless particularly fitting
and proper that The American Leg
ion. representing the ex-service men
and women Of thoroughly united
nation, should participate in these
observances and show its mark of
respect and honor.
AS Commander of the American
Legion for the Department of Maine,
I am therefore directing all Legion
Posts within this State to cooperate
in all observances to be held within
their respective cities and towns,
and where not otherwise provided, to
hold appropriate exercises of their
own.

Commander of Department of Maine

Abnormal Profits
For the WOOIen Trust

New York-With wages going down
and millions of wage earners idle in
the greatest depression this country
has ever experienced, the American
woolen company cody announces that
its profits last year were $9,192, ,621.-
73. In 1920, another year of depres-
sion, the profits totalled $6,855,259 16.
These staggering profits, at time
when hunger and want are abroad in
the land, have been continuous since
the beginning of the world. IN 1918
the trust increased it's clear profits
316 per cent over 1914. The net in
crease in common stock earnings was
531 per cent.
Last years profits of more than
nine million dollars Gomez near equal
ling the trusts record year of 1919
when clear profits were $10,779,804.
In 1918 the earnings per share on
common stock was Sl3.8G, a total of
S5,572,52
In his report on last years immense
profits, President Wood attempts to
create the impression that the woolen
tr'lst had its difficulties. He said last
yeal was zone of the most trying IN
The company's experience"
II is quite possible, however, that
the trust officials can survive their
troubles, in view Of their fabulous in
come at time when wages are cut,
millions are unemployed, and farmers
and small business men are being
ruined.

Attempted Bank HOldup

At eleven o'clock Monday morning
a young man entered the Park Ma
tional Bank, on North Park Place, and
presenting revolver ordered Cashier
A. c. Krug to throw up his hands.
Instead of complying Mr.. Krug
called on Everett Reese, in an adjoin-
ing booth, to open fire on the intrud-
er, at the same time starting for him
himself. The would-be robber lost his
nerve and made a break for the street.
Krug and Reese chased him around
the corner and up the alley in the rear
OF the Carroll store, where he was
lost track of. Reese took a couple Of
shots at the fleeing man, but made a
clean miss. Krug says the robber
was five feet, eight or ten inches tall,
slender, dark and wore a dark brown
felt hat and brown belted overcoat.
