Spanish War Vets To Conduct Maine
 Memorial Service

On Feb. Is, 1893, the U. S. bat tIeShip Maine while on friendly V1slt to Cuba, was blown up and sunk by a mine in Havana harbor with loss of 266 officers and men. This out rage later led to war between the United States and Spain, and resulted in making us a world power for the first time in history and had a far reaching effect upon the destinies Of our country. Very important discoy- cries were made during that war not ably the treatment of yellow fever and typhoid. Due to the lessons then learned, our armies on the Mexican border and the American Eped4tion- aV Forces in Europe during the World War, escaped these scourges and not a single death occurred from these diseases.
 Maine Memorial services are held annually all over the country and this year the members of Lieut. N. W. Bishop Camp, United Spanish War Veterans, and Raymond w. Harris, Post, Veterans of Foreign Wars, are to hold a combined memorial service at the Veterans of Foreign Wars hall on Washington avenue, on Sunday. Feb. 18th at p. m. Hon.

NEW TENNIS RACQUET

A lawn tennis racquet having a metal frame is being tested by sev- eraI of the first ten ranking play CTS of the country with the idea of manufacture in large quantities in case it proves adaptable to the modern court game.
 The racquet is the invention of William A. Larned, many times na- tional champion and one of the closest students of the game.
 Larned conceived the oidea of sub stituting a metal frame for the usual wooden rim racquet some months ago and has been experiment. ing with several models since.
 In its latest form the racquet con sists of a steel frame pierced for the gut stringing in the same manner as that used in the ordinary racquet. Where the frame joins at the neck of the racquet the metal is brazed to- gether dthe prongs continued and countersunk into the regulation han dle.
 It is said that the new instrume ent of play overcomes the disadvantage of warping and losing shape when re- strung, giving greater flexibility of stroke and additional force to the returns.
