In a Nutshell

\ANC" l. vi
In discussion Of side issues bearing
on the railway strike let no one for
get the main fact.
What is it, 1t is whether or not
railway wages, compared with the
cost of living and the general pur-
chasing power Of the dollar, are up or
down from conditions that existed in
the pre-war era. Are the machinists
and other repair and maintenance
men relatively better off than they
were, or are they worse off? 1t is
possible that railway employees were
getting too little in 1917, but some
datum line must be adopted as pre-
sumptively fair.
According to figures of the Rail-
road Labor Board the average hour
~ compensation of railway machin-
lists in 1917 was sos cents, against
1908 cents under the new scale. Dur
ing the same period the cost of living
has had net increase of II per cent.
So the machinist gets in purchasing
power 10 per cent more than in 1917.
Figured in the same way, the strik
ing car men have declined ASH per
cent more in actual wages, and the
common labor increase is As per cent.
SO down the long list of classical
tions. AS to every class the railway
employees have made large net gain.
This, under economic law, has been at
the expense of non-railway workers.
Figures make dull reading. But
when accurately compiled they often
tell a story not otherwise communi-
cable. The evidence is that the peri
Cd since 1917 has been one which
railway employees may remember
gratefully. They have prospered and
are now prospecting more than the
rest of us.

Falmouth Fourth Victim

While endeavoring to light a can
non cracker Wednesday, Billy. the 8
year old son Of Mr. and Mrs. William
II. Brown of the Foreside road at
Town Landing, was painfully injured
when the cracker exploded, driving a
great amount Of powder into the lads
face, Medical assistance was called,
as it was feared at first that the ex-
plosion might have affected his eye
sight. Upon examination it was found
that the injuries consisted mostly of
burns, none of which is expected to
prove serious. A considerable amount
of powder was removed from the
boys face yesterday.

set up an ideal Enthusiastically
American. and we can realize 1t If the
public will give us the necessary sup
port. Not blind obedience but volun-
tary cooperation shall be our watch
word. We shall seek contentment
through intelligent exercise of our in
dividual talents, and find happiness
in the possession of our own attain
ments. l grant that our problem is
infinitely more difficult than the one
submitted to German teachers. 1t is
far easier to quench ambitions than
to rouse them and direct them Alright.
Never before has nation been
founded on the proposition that all
men are created equal, and nowhere
in history has intelligent self -direc-
ton been set up as national ideal of
education.
THE need for an intelligent electo-
rate goes far beyond the choice of
political leaders. My view is that the
right spirit comes from enlightened
public opinion that voluntarily
chooses to follow expert guidance in
every phase of life. Confidence in
leaders is the first essential in the
democratic program of social reform.
THE maintenance Of civil order
and social security logically pre-
cedes the rise of leaders. Population
is shifting from the country to the
city. Elbow room is growing less.
Every year makes it harder for some
TO maintain decent standard of liv-
ing. EThe Old World with its woes
stands begging at our doors. sDiscon-
tent is spreading like a fatal disease
among great groups of our citizens
This tendency, unless checked. can
have only one result-our experiment
in democratic governments&ill surely
fail, and with it the hopes of world
worn out with travail of new born
ideals of freedom The outcome rests
with the teachers of America. Are we
ready to do our share?"

How to Remove Easily

Here's chance, Miss Freckle face,
to try remedy for freckles with the
guarantee of a reliable concern that
1t Will not cost you a penny unless it
removes the freckles; while IL it does
give you clear complexion The ex-
pensc is trifing.
Simply get an ounce of Othine-
double strensth-from any druggist
and few applications should show
you how easy 1t is to rid yourself Of
the homely freckles and get beauti-
full complexion. Rarely is more than
one ounce needed for the worst case.
BE, sure to ask the druggist for the
double strength Othine as this
strength is sold under guarantee Of
money back if it fails to remove
freCkles.-Ady.

Sea Sonnet

Sea Sonnet
Tho sharp lines of the jagged crags
Softened in dim gray mist,
Tho troubled waters drowsed to sleep
Lulled by the suns last kiss;
The sky subdued with actors tact
stands by for Nighttime feature Act:
While the gulls o'erhead and around
the bay
Mourn the spent soul of a lying day.
Indistinct the mainland faded-faded,
In the West, the sky, the stars bro
caded-
A whir of wings-and night is here,
The bats and lustrOus moths lose fear,
And l, alone, watch all God wrought.
L sit alone, here, with my thought.

he is "a years of age he made the trip
both ways by automobile and left
with his usual promise to "come
again next year"
At the annual meeting of the
Maine Medical Association in
Portland last week an invitation
was extended to the Association to
meet in Houlton next year which will
be some time in June. 1t is expected
that an invitation will be extended to
the New Brunswick Assn. to meet in
Houlton at the same time, and all
those who attend can be sure of a
glad hand from every citizen of this
oulton Times.
Monday evening some Saco young
men who evidently use their heads
merely as hat racks, amused them
selves by throwing giant tirecrackers
through the mail slots on doors Of
residences. One of these crackers was
thrown through the slot in the resi-
dence of William Haig on Temple
street and also in the kimball resi-
dence on that street. The houses We're
filled with smoke and the residents
were badly frightened and feared
that the firecrackers would set fire to
the carpets. This sort Of malicious
mischief is very dangerous and it
does not seem as though such actions
are necessary for enjoyment. City
Marshal Lonsdale has a good idea of
whom the guilty parties are and it
may be that arrests will be made.
William l.. White, an Old Orchard
business man and owner of Whites
cafe, whose property was destroyed
by fire Sunday noon, is showing a
spirit in which the town Of Old Or

reconstruction of a building and in
stead of being discouraged by his Sc
we're loss he is already completing his
plans for business.
A record run is claimed by Rockland
firemen in their dash to Waldoboro
Tuesday morning, when the entire
business section of that town was
threatened by a blaze. Receiving the
call at exactly 730, they cranked the
big combination truck and in jig time
they were burning the highway. They
saw but one hill, they said, that in
Thomaston. ana landed in Waldoboro
at three minutes before o'clock. hav-
ing covered the distance of is miles in
81 minutes.
Much dissatisfaction is expressed in
Rockland at the apparent boycott of
Rockland musicians in all the dances
and concerts conducted by the man
agement of Oakland Park. Local
pride, it is held, has received little
consideration ard a loss of popularity
for the park is predicted if the pres
EN- policy continues. A great deal of To-
cal pride centers in the Rockland band,
and the people in this section want it
kept intact at its present high stand
ard Of ability. 1t furnishes a great
deal Of pleasure wherever 1t plays and
is always of great benefit to this sec
ton on special occasions, such as holt
day celebrations.
