Fine Work of Kinder
garten Among Chill
dren Of America

Louisville, KY, March 9.-Preparing
for two-year campaign of education
among the mothers of Kentucky. IN
order that by the time the General
Assembly meets in 1924 the people
will be acquainted with the educational
needs Of rural communities, the Inter-
national kindergarten Union will meet
in Louisville the week of April "a. At
the international gathering of dele
gates. representing $4,000 kindergar-
ten teachers of many nations, the edu-
cational campaign plans will be laid
and active work started to show the
need Of kindergartehs in small towns
as well as in the larger cities, as a
vital factor in training the young
mind. says the announcement of the
committee arranging for the conven-

Already. in seven states. bills have
been prepared providing for the estab-

Exceptions Overruled
In Case of Ham VS..
Maine Central r. R.

Bangor, Me-, March 9-(Special)-
A rescript was handed down by the
law court today in the Somerset
county case of William c. Ham VS..
the Maine Central Railroad Co., over
ruling the motion and exceptions OF
the defendant.
The rescript. which was drawn by
Chief Justice Leslie c. Cornish OF
Augusta holds as follows:
1. 1t is settled law in this State
that at grade crossings the traveller
and the railroad company have con-
current rights and mutual obliga-
tons. Neither has an exclusive
right but inasmuch as a railroad
train runs on a fixed track and read
lily acquires a peculiar momentum
it cannot be expected that when once
in motion it will stop and give pre-
cedence to a team approaching on
the highway. 1t cannot be required
to de so except in cases Oh manifest
danger where it is apparent that a
collision could not otherwise be
avoided.
2. II railroad company negligent
ly permits trees and bushes to grow
within its location to such an extent
that travellers view Of approaching
trains is 50 obstructed that.they cam
not. be seen until the traveller is close
to the track. it becomes the duty OF
the company to use extra precaution
Daily Kennebec journal., 1922-03-10

to avoid collision, as by less
amount Of speed or by increased
warnings; or if an unslackened
speed is desirable, by keeping a
watchman on duty or some other
sufficient means of warning travellers.
3. Grouping all the facts in this
case together on the question of the
defendants negligence. the obstruct-
ing trees. the possible failure to give
warning, the unguarded crossing and
the rate Of speed. it is not clear that
the conclusion of the jury was man.
ifestly wrong.
4. On the question of the plaintiff s
contributory negligence. it is a posi- =.
tive rule of law in this State that it is
negligence per Sc for the driver Of a
conveyance to attempt to cross a
railroad track without first looking
and listening if there is an opportuni-
ty to do SO. If obstacles prevent his
looking. the traveller should stop if
there is room fors doubt.
5. The plaintiff in this case was not
the driver but passenger, and even
il. the driver could be charged with a
lack of due care, negligence on his

The moment this sulphur prepara-

National Guard

The following memorandum to all
officers and enlisted men OF the 1880
Infantry has been received from reg
imental headquarters:
Il. Your attention is invited to the
fact that during July, 1922 at Camp
Devens, the regiments making up
both the 26th and ADD Divisions will
be taking their field training, COM
ing under the eyes Of the command
ing general and the other Regular
Army officers of the 1st Corps Area,
who will naturally judge their eff1-
cheney and compare them. one reg
.mcnt with another. Previously this
regiment has not stacked up against
other regiments in such a way as to
low real comparison. In the 1922
orcampment this regiment will have
to stand comparison with some OF the
best National Guard regiments. We
do not want to come off second best.
our reputation is good now, but can
IL survive close comparison with
other regiments? 1t can. II we want
it to sufficiently to be willing to
work for 1t.
80. The first thing absolutely nee
essarv TO make a crack regiment is
correct military set-up. The next Is
woll-fitting and well-cared for uni
forms and equipment. Sounds easy!
We'll. these two points can't be OBJ
tanned unless there Is good physical
condition, good discipline and each
man is proud of his organization and
proud to belong to it. These in turn
mean that the officers and men are
good soldiers. playing the game right
and the organization is efficient. AS
the old saying is you can't make a
silk purse out of a sow's ear. Think
II over and then read the regimental
competition provided for in Reg. G..
o. Jan. II, 1922.
"3. Many Of the units Of this reg
iment seem, by their Improvement
along these lines. to be working hard
for these prizes. Is your company
one of these?
II. The regimental commanding
officer had these prizes offered be-
cause at Camp Devens next sum-
mer he wants to point with pride to

tiff.
6. The plaintiff is responsible for
his own conduct and is held to that
degree of care which a reasonably
prudent man would exercise under
the same circumstances and condi-
tons.
Z. Measured by this test the find
ing of the jury that the plaintiff
was in the exercise of due care
