Since the Star shone over Beth
lehem candles have always been as
ISOLATED with Christmas. They are
older than Christmas trees or Santa
Claus. They are older than sleigh
bells or holly wreaths, or a twig
of mistletoe under which a maiden
may be kissed Perhaps it is be-
cause a lighted candle looks SO
much like a star.
When the early Christians built
their churches they put candles on
the affairs, in memory OF the Star
of Bethlehem, and OF Him TO whom
it led the Wise Men from the East.
When the custom OF celebrating
Christmas around fir tree began

America. There was time when
they discounted everything, man

cation, music and literature, which
did not bear the stamp of Europe.
But that is changing.
1t has become fashionable to be
American.
With falling dynasties, changing
flags and constitutions, the sub
merging Of old classes and the ele-
walton of new ones in Europe,
America is becoming the Oldest
country in the world, linking its
present to its past by the strong
and gentle chain of evolution -
a chain which in so many coun-
tries OF Europe has been broken by
the passion OF revolution.
America has grown old enough
to have traditions. These tradi-

the dust Of neglect whisked off, re-
vealing how beautiful they were

The Auto Tragedy At Unity.

The most appalling auto accident evel
to occur in Maine was at Unity station
Sunday morning when the special train
from Belfast to Burnham, with Company
X. on its way to Camp Devens, collided
with an auto driven by Evart L. Varney
of Burnham. The dead are: Mr.. and Mrs.
Evart Leroy Varney, their seven year old
son, Malcolm Varney, Mrs. Varney's
half-brotber Lawrence Burrill, age 16, all
of Burnham, and Mrs. A. v. Marshall of
Chelsea, Mass, and a Miss Hinckley, a
school teacher, of Swampscot, Mass. The
baby whose life was spared is Muriel Var
ney, adopted daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Varney. They were in party of several
cars going to Searsport on a clambake.
The other cars were in advance of the
Varney car The three women and boy
were frighttully mutilated and apparently
killed instantly as they were thrown
aeaInstthe wheels and shaft of the engine.
Mrs Marshall was carried about ITO feet
and the others near by. The baby landed
20 feet from the automobile and near a
sidetrack. Lawrence Burrill was thrown
near the station platform. Mr.. Varney
was about eight feet from the machine
and Malcolm Varney was close by. Mr..
Varney and the Burrill boy were taken to
the'Sisters' Hospital in Waterville. Mr.
Varney did not regain consciousness, but
the boy after coming out of the ether
after the amputation of his right leg at the
hip regained consciousness, but died at
11.50. At the time of the accident he
gave the names of the party and other de.
tails. The special was in charge of con-
ductor Tainter and engineer Harry Gordon
of Belfast and was stopped as soon as pos
sible, when all on board with people who
live near the station, and local physicians
did everything possible to relieve the in
jured and care for the dead. The baby
was taken to Pittsfield by its grandmother,
Mrs. George Varney.
County Attorney Ralph l. Morse of
Belfast has been notified that the Public
Utilities Commission have ordered a
hearing on the accident to be held at
Unity next Tuesday. Medical Examiner
Dr. o. S. Vickery was called to Unity
Sunday after the automobile accident
there. He is to render his verdict to the

Camden IS, Belfast 1.

The Camden Herald of Thursday gave
the following account of a recent game
in that town:
Camden A. A. defeated Belfast A. A.
decisively Saturday by a score Of ISL.
From the first there was little doubt a.
to the outcome, as Box was in rare form
and Camden got four run lead in the
first inning.
Camden worked out her new pitcher,
Box, an II he proved very effedtive, allow.
ing but two hits, one of these being
Sc atch. The one run by Belfast was the
result of this scratch hit and low throw
which, had it been properly placed. would
easily have prevented the run.
Camden as a team played first-class
ball and the work of the outfield was an
feature. Other features were
F. Thomas home run, Magee's catch of
a high ball and the batting of the two
Thomases, Upton, Wardwell and Magee.
Belfast proved to be disappointment,
but the game as a whole proved that
Camden has a very fast team and will
have to 60 out of her class to get teams
TO provide good games. 1t also proves
that Camden has two first-class batteries,
Boynton and Taylor, Box and MORN.
