Introduction of
Central Inspection

Insurance Commissioner G. Walden
Smith has returned from Portland
where he has been for several days in
connection with the introduction of
what is known as Central Inspection,
a system of grading risks for work
mems compensation insurance. This
change from the old method of per-
hitting insurance companies to make
their own inspections is a forward
step in determining proper rates to
be charged for this form of insurance.
Commissioner Smith has made
a long and successful fight for
this change which represents very
much more in the cost and
in the proper grading of all
classifications in favor Of the in
sured, and is definite victory and
advantage for the insurers in the
State of Maine. This form of inspec-
ton gives positively neutral reports,
these being ased on the survey of
the bureau which represents the in
surance department of Maine, this
bureau in turn representing all COM
panies and having no interest in any
competitive issues.
Central inspection" said Com
missioner Smith today, treats all in
surance companies alike. removes the
possibility of any company f1uctuat-
ing or surveying risks to meet COM
petition. 1t is absolutely impartial.
and the insured gets a square, fair
deal under this basis of Inspection
Manager Albert E. Sharpe in
charge of the bureau, who has afford
ed Commissioner Smith every assist

tors who are making q detailed in
spection of all industrial plants Of
every classification.

Junior Glass Day Exercises

The Junior Glass Day exercises at
the Senior Spring Friday morning
were impressive and well carried out.
The program was: Music, America /;
prayer. offered by Joseph Walter
Shea; music, Junior class song: ora
ton, Walter Stewart Morrell: drink
ing from the Senior spring; presen-
tation of cup and emblem, Ralph
Eaton Cain; music, ION the Pines
Bordered Bank"
Not far from the Good Will rail-
road station is the Senior Spring,
half surrounded with pine trees. The
Good Will emblem" This emblem
represents the highest ideals at Good
Will, physically. intellectually. So
cially, and religiously. The Senior
cup was presented to Good Will by
Y. NJ. c. A. boys on the Pacific coast,
for this special ceremony each year
at Good viii. When the time comes
for the Junior Glass Day exercises
the class assemblies at the Senior
Spring. The Senior class goes to the
library and the president receives
from its custodian, the Good Will
emblem. Carrying the emblem and
the cup. he leads the Seniors to the
spring and they take their places on
the opposite side of the spring from
the Junior class. After the Juniors
have carried out the program, the
president of the Senior class takes
the cup, fills it from the spring and
pours out the water upon the green
grass. He fills it the second time
and passes it to one of the Juniors,
who drinks from the cup and be-
comes a Senior. The president OF
the Senior class then empties the
cup, retilIs it and goes through the
same ceremony, until each Junior
has drunk from the spring and the
Senior cup, thus becoming a men,
Der of the new Senior class. He
then extends the emblem, in silence,
to the president of the newly mace
Senior class, who accepts it In ST.
lence. 1t is understood by this cere-
mony that the Senior class. about
to be graduated, has bequeathed TO
the newly made Seniors, the re-
sponsibility for the support and
maintenance of the best ideals, phys
ically, intellectually, socially and re-
ligiously at Good Will and that II
has been assumed by successors
The school then joins the two classes
in singing a Good Will song and the
newly made Seniors escort the en-
blcm back to the library to remain

AFTER DRAGGING
WIFE FROM GAR
Judge Finds Man Who Roughed
Mate in Presence Of Police
men Not Guilty.

A husband who discovers his
wife in an automobile In company
with two male escorts when she
ought to be home in bed is per.
fectly justified In dragging her
from the machine.
This was the opinion rendered
yesterday by Judge Robert T.
Mattingly, in Police Court. when
he had on trial Russell A.
Murray. OF sol Il street south
west, on charges Of assaulting his
wife and with being disorderly. The
charges against Murray were pre-.
ferred by Detectives Charles Berry
and Thomas O'Donneli OF the
Fourth precinct. who, II IL alleged,
were In an automobile with Mrs.
Murray on the night OF April 2s al
Sixth street and Missouri avenue
southwest.
Testimony developed that Mrs.
Murray and another young woman.
accompanied by the precinct de
tectives. were on their way to get
warrant for the arrest of Murray
on charges OF violation OF the pro.
Inhibition law when the irate
husband came up.
ANY married man. under the
circumstances. would have been
justified in indulging in profanity
and to insist that his wife return
with him" said the judge.
Murray was then released.
