added to the fun.
Between the halves the band with
Rotarians and students behind it
marched across the field and passed
before the Cony stands. With the
orange and black colors predominant
ing in the line of march, and the
special blue and gold head dresses
of the Rotarians, the scene was one
Of color and animation. The Au-
gusta Rotarians insisted upon their
brother clubmen from up-river &C.
ers for the second half of the con-
test so that both clubs had an OPP
portunity to sit down at least half
of the game.
William Wldcs and William Cole
Of Skowhecan High school acted as
cheer leaders for the rooters. Wildcs
was dressed in an orange and black
clown costume while Cole wore a
pierrot suit of the same colors. They
were assisted by several attractive
young ladies with gypsy head-dresses
OF orange and black, and by mem
bcrs of the Rotary club of their
town. Their cheering was snappy
and full of fight, and the consistent,
unflagcing support they gave their
boys throughout the game won the
universal admiration Of all.

Largest Statue

1t is reported from Japan that
there is being carved there the largest
statue in the world. 1t is a recum-
bent effigy of Nichiren, a japanese
patron saint, cut from natura,
granite rock on a hillside in the
Island of Ushigakubi, or the Cows
Head" in the inland sea of Seto.
This stone image, it appears, will
be $40 feet long. 60 feet longer than
the sleeping Buddha at Segu, and
considerably larger than the Sphynx
in Egypt.
Nichiren, whose name means Lotus
of the Sum-" was religious teacher,
who lived in the 18th century. At
one time he was condemned to death,
but the headman's sword, the Japan
ese say, was unable to decapitate
him." One Of his present-day wor-
shippers, a very wealthy japanese,
is bearing the expense of having the
huge stone carved in honor of the
saint.-Washington Star.

The finest kind Of Cony spirit was
rampant before, during and after the
game, the citizens of the city joining
with the students in honOring the
team in every way possible.
Promptly at lis a parade Of over
ESQ Cony students formed at the
school and started on the march to
Capital park. The line was guided
by the drum major of the band,
little CD Kenneth Fisher in a red
and white clowns suit with the name
"Cony" inscribed on the back. I'M
mediately behind the drum ma or,
came the four cheer leaders-Marie
Simpson. Joan Sturtevant, Kenneth
Merrill and Fred Ellis, all wearing
white, and the two girls wearing
Cony banners upon their back.
The Cony band of drums and trum-
pets came next, wearing red and
white hats which were donated by
Ned" Beane, the boys also being
dressed in white. Thcn came the
girls and boys of the school, 20 the
number of 225, marching in columns
or fours.
AS the line reached the bottom of
Cony Fill it was almost disrupted $
one of the storekeepers there, came
out to the curb with a large box full
of tin horns which he made known
by signs. were to be given away to
any students that wanted them. For
every horn there were about ten stu
dents, and the storekeepcr disappear
cd from view for several minutes.
! When the smoke cleared away, the
line was again on its way across the
bridge even more noisy than before,
and the box was empty.
All along Water street the windows
were filed by those employed in the
stores. as they watched the process
sion pass by. At Market Square,
Marshall Charley 1<insman indicated
to the students where they should
stop, and then formed the parade for
the march the rest of the day.

Long after Augusta folks have for
Ile1n football clash, they will still
bu talking about the thousand royal
1ooters from the Somerset shire
town; their famous elephant and the
"rubc" band that provided so much
fun for those present.
Never in Augusta athletic history
has a visiting prep school football
team received the whole hearted
backing of their home-folks accorded
the Skowhegan warriors. Long be-
fore the game had started, the
Skowhegan side of the field was lined
with supporters. and the bleachers
reserved for them had been filled.
Before the game, Principal Clar-
ence Quimby Of Cony High made an
appeal to those in the stands to clear
them so that they might be used by
the section coming on the train, but
The good natured. irresistible crowd

Held Up Game For Special Train
The football officials held the time
o the game from 2 o'clock until
@2l. when the strains of the Show
logan band were heard from the
vicinity of the State House, and the
long black line of marchers came in
10 view sweeping down across the
new State Park Aside from the I'M
expected forward pass at the very
start of the game the upriver dele
