Mechanic Falls
Accident Decision

The public utilities commission il
it's decision rendered Tuesday in the
matter of the accident which &C.
CURED on the Grand Trunk Railway
at Grants Crossing near Mechanic
Falls April II last in which j. X.
Denning of Mechanic Falls, aged 81
years, lost his life, says that the ac-
cident apparently resulted from the
failure on the part of Mr.. Denning to
take notice that a train was about to
pass over this crossing.
"Grant's Crossing, so called, on the
Grand Trunk Railway, is located
about three miles east of Oxford Sta
ton and about one mile west Of the
Mechanic Falls station" says the de-
cision Of the public utilities commits
sioncrs.
This cross was made fair view
crossing but somewhat extensive al
terations and improvements made
under the direction of this commits
sion in 1917 continues the report of
the commission.
Mr.. Denning was seen approach
ing this crossing from Mechanic
Falls, going toward oxford, riding in
an express wagon drawn by one
horse. The angle of his vision from
the direction in which the train was
coming Was especially clear. as he
could look almost directly upon the
approaching train. a crew Of tele-
phone linemcn with a truck was in
the highway upon the westerly side
y. 1
attract the attention of Mr.. Denning.
Evidently he neither saw nor heard
the train and drove directly upon the
crossing, in front Of the train, APP
parently without stopping either TO
look or to listen.
The whistle had blown for the
crOSsiu" and the bell was ringing.
The engineer saw the crew with the
telephone truck and, as a matter Of
fact, blew a second warning for them.
He did not see Mr.. Denning, as he
was coming from the opposite side,
and the first knowledge he had of the
accident was when he saw the horses
head. when the train was only about
100 feet from the crossing. The emer-
gency brakes We're applied and the
train came to a stop about 100 feet
beyond the crossing. The horses got
across all right, and the engine
struck the wagon squarely. The body
Of Mr.. DcrninG was found upon the
engine pilot and was taken to Me-
chanic Falls and placed in the charge
of an undertaken.
The speed of the train as it APP
preached the crossing was about 40
to As miles per hour, and the testi-
mony shows that the brakes and 9TH

Ad atmosphere"
Appeals to Fair
SeX-MrS. OleSen

Milwaukee, Wis. June 1.-Two
men like what may be termed at
mosphere," i'll advertising. Mrs. Anna
ID. Olesen OF Cloquet, Mimi, candi-
date for the Democratic nomination
for United States senator from Mini
ncsota, told the convention of the
Associated Advertising Clubs Of the
World today.
She said that the modern woman
demands not only utility, but also
"heauty and comfort in order to
have a home atmosphere equal to
tina. of kings and queens a few CEN
turtles ago"
when a merchant PAYS $500 for
an ad in a paper be wants to use
the space to the best possible ad-
vantage" Mrs. Olesen said. He
may make it 80, 40. 60, so or 100
percent efficient. The cost of the
space is the same. 1t is the adver-
Users business to say how it shall
be made efficient.
First, we want courtesy. Sec
ondly, we want an appeal to our in
telligence and not to our prejudices.
Thirdly, we want to get full and
honest value for the price paid. 1t
is a strong point with US, that a firm
will refund us the purchase price Of
ANYTHING bought, if it does not prove
satisfactory.
Not all the advertising is in
print. Courtesy. promptness of serv-
ice, forethought of personal comfort
such as drinking fountains and rest
rooms, have their value. The simple
fact of placing a product before the
eyes of people on paper will un-
| doubfedly make sales, however.
The sign that says 1T amt tooth
| ache-it is tobacco is grotesque. 1t
Injuries the sense of beauty, art and
proportion. Five or six miles from
a large city at the turn or bend of
the road there is apparently a large
sook, telling a few sentences of the
history of the City we are approach
ing. Though it says very little about
the tire 1t advertises, we feel as we
are passing by that that manufac-
| turer is interested in our welfare;
| he has given us some worthwhile
in'o'mation; he has appealed to our
intelligence.
- cordial smile and handshakc
| is necessary for the success of a
small crossroads store; it is equally
necessary to carry that principle of
cordial service into large organiza-
tons. Service pays, and advertising
which renders public service also
pays.
Women do most household buy
ing from the retailer. They are nat
ural bargain hunters and are more
Impressed with what they read than
men.
Most of the failures in advortis-
ZIG are due to oyerstating the merits
OF the product while others are due
! to undertaking its real value. There
fore the advertiser must fully under
stand what he is advertising. and
then present the facts as they are"

Miss Cecil Clay is president Of the

mental in raising about $500 for
the hospital and in looking after the
house furnishings and equipment.
Among recent improvements may be
mentioned the exterior painting of
the hospital, the renovation of the
nurses sleeping quarters on the third
floor, and the purchase of new bed
ding
The cost of heating the hospital is
considerable, and while the radiation
ana piping are good, it iss thought
necessary to install new boiler at
u cost of about $500.
1t is pleasing to report that with
the exception of DR.. Taplcy who has
a hospital of his own and one other

TENTS to DR.. Tapleys hospital, all
the physicians in Belfast bring pa

recommended that the staff organize
TO conduct staff meetings monthly
at which they will talk over all re-
cent cases in the hospital and ap-
prove the records Of the cases before
they are filed. One member of the
staff has an N-ray outfit, and on
several occasions hospita! patients
have been sent TO his office for X

not possess an outfit.
