AMERICAN LEGION CONCERT

The concert given on Friday even
ink by the American Legion band
and Mr.. and Mrs. ROwdon was well
carried out and very much to the
credit of all performers as we'll as
contributing to the pleasure of the
audience.
The audience did not seem very
responsive at first, and the concert
was we'll advanced before they
awoke from their lethargy. From
then on they showed appreciation
and applauded as If they wished they
could have the program done again.
Mr.. Rowdon, in speaking of the
band and its work, said that this was
the first of series of entertainments
to be given by the band and for its
benefit financially. He expressed
the hope that people would show
their appreciation of the home band
by literally patronizing their enter
and said the band Is ask
ing no donations, but are giving
good values for the money received.
The band members are working hard
to acquire skill, and the pieces they
played were the proof of his state
mentS.
Mr.. Rowdon is a good band leader
and the community is fortunate to
have his services. Mrs. Rowdon pre-
sided at the piano with her usual
skill and was generously applauded, f,
besides being presented with beauti-
ful floral Acknowledgements as the
program progressed.

THOSE FROZEN POTATOES

The hard freezing of October "a
and 20 has done some damage to the
potato crop, and 1t cannot be told in
a line or two. The extent of the
freezing depended on the condition
of the soil, and the extent of the
damage from q given amount OF
chilling depends on the manner In
which the warming up was accom-
plished
The ground that was wet and
soggy froze deeper than where it was
mellow and contained air in the open
spaces, the pores, the interstices.
Some potatoes lay rather deep In. the
ground and were hilled up with mel
low earth, and took but little
damage, while those lying near the
surface in soggy ground might all be
worthless.
Potatoes that were dug and ex-
posed to the air before the frost was
we'll out of the ground, would take
more damage than those left in and
the sun and air kept from them un-
til the temperature was safe.
Potatoes can take certain
amount of chill and do not soften or
show watery condition when exposed
to the air, and yet the chill acts on
the starch and starts changing 1t
into sugar and the process goes on
very slowly and rots the potato in
the course of a few weeks or few
months. The chilled potatoes can
be put on the market and consumed
early and many people prefer them
because Of the slight sweet taste, but
they require frequent sorting to get
the worst ones out before they
spread decay thru the lot.
Alarming reports have been given
out regarding the extent of the
damage in this county, and they
need Analysing to make them con-
form to the different localities or
fields. We have reports from To-
cality northeast of Moreland where
they were considered a total loss on
Wednesday, and from other local |
tiles on the same day indicating very |
little if any loss other than those |
tubers actually exposed at the top of |
The ground. Most Of the growers |
advised waiting few days to let the |
weather settle and the potatoes take !
Ill the benefit they could from
warming up in the soil, as well as to

AT THE ASYLUM

DR.. Eaton and his corps of assist
ants at the asylum gave party to
the patients on Wednesday evening.
The amusement hall was decorated
with corn and pumpkins and candles,
besides Mother Goose figures on the
wall, with rats, cats and spooks that
had been cut out of colored papers
by the patients and attendants for
the occasion. The attendants and
visitors wore fancy caps made of
tissue paper, and some Of the
patients aided in the musical pro-
gram.
Manager DeMordant of the Rialto
theater put on movie program free
of charge, the Misses Truman and
Seeger rendered musical parts, and
from the booths Of cornstalks and
came forth refreshments
for all. The event lasted from 7.30
until 1870.

AROUND THE COURT HOUSE

Sheriff Stephens has the new outer
door installed at the east entrance
of the building to take the place of
the one he condemned.
In the year 1914 the county in
stalled some chemical fire extinguish-
ers to hang in the halls. The chemi-
to keep them efficient, and each tank
is supplied with cloth tag with a
printed form for filling In each date
when the chemicals we're renewed.
Investigation of these extinguishers
recently did not show that they had
ever been refllled, and test of their
efficiency in throwing chemicals up
on the building showed only enough
pep to throw them about as high as
a mans head. Sheriff Stephens had
them all filled anew, filled in the
date of renewal in the printed form
and is ready to fight fire.
Mrs. Ward, the county treasurer,
planned to start four persons on the
work of making out tax notices the
first day of November and keep them
at it until they finish, which will be
in about three weeks. There are
5000 notices to mail, and they
handle about 500 a day. Few If any
of them will be mailed until the job
is done.
The sheriff's office recently
searched some premises west of
Pingree belonging to Mr.. Dejulis
and found a still or two, where three
had already been captured not long
ago. One of the men who was out
on parole to harvest his crop was re-
quired to return to custody on the
theory that he had forfeited his
trust.

OCEAN POINT

Many curious things have been found
by Mr.. Spur while building roads in
this part OF the country. but the Oldest
and most mysterious of all is heavy.
hand-wrought link chain. six to eight
feet in length. such as used with oxen.
This was found in the very thickest
part OF the woods on the Point and
was covered by eight inches of pine
needles. with no dirt A large root Of
tree had grown through one Of the
links so that it required cutting to get
the chain loose. The piece of root is
still in the chain. The chain must
have been there for many. many years.
and how it could ever have gotten
there is more than one can understand.
Parts of the original had evidently
been broken and pieces of links had
been fitted. Some of the first settlers
of this section had probably been here
to secure their supply of fuel for the
winter with the aid of oxen. Mr..
Spur is convinced that the Point was
inhabited years before any one now
living knows. The chain is on exhibit
ton at the Boothbay Register Office in
Boothbay Harbor.
New streets are fast appearing on
many parts of the Point, and while
the beauty of the woods has been
taken away. the land has been we'll
developed and made more valuable.
Much blasting has been going on and
while 1t is, of course. necessary in the
work being done, 1t is a relief TO all
there when each explosion is finished.
During one of the blasts large water
soaked root was thrown through the
roof of the garage of l.. T. Williams.
With the exception of the hole in the
roof. no special damage was done.
