Warm in Praise of Maine
Chambers of Commerce

Il spent fully $500 more on my
vacation trip down through Maine
this summer than l would have spent,
If 1t had not been for the activity
OF various Chambers of Commerce
who pointed out so many attractive
places to visit that l just had to
prolong my visit and take in all man
ner of side trips. They are an active
bunch, those Chamber. of Commerce
people. Why, they loaded me down
with booklets and maps and they
knew the roads and hotels and
places to visit so thoroughly that I
just relied upon them to give me the
best kind of a vacation. 1t was as if
I had said, We'll, here l am. all ready
to have good vacation. Now where
shall l go and what shall do and,
believe me they knew how to answer
the question"
The above enthusiastic statement
was made by dentist of the city of
Attleboro, who enjoyed the hospital
ity of Maine this summer and i s
vouched for by George c. Clarke,
formerly secretary of the Chamber
of Commerce at Augusta, who now
serves the city of Pawtucket, Rhode
Island in q similar capacity. Mr.
Clarke lives in Attleboro just over
the line from Pawtucket and the
| statement came to him directly, al
| though 1t was not known at the time
that Mr. Clarke was a former Maine
man.

| of Commerce were particularly

Disfigurcd Faces Made Over

A splendid legacy left by wartime
surgery to the world today is the
assurance that sufferers from hid
eous facial disfigurements may have
good looks restored. writes Zoe
Beckley in McClures Magazine.
The miracles performed by great
plastic surgeons who. in the deSper-
alton Of early war days. learned how
to make new faces for old, SCULPTURE
ing human flesh that had been torn
and distorted by shell and shrapnel
and the burns of liquid fire, today
are making life endurable once more
to hundreds of peacetime civilians.
Cruel deformities of nose and mouth:
the disfigurements left by terrible
accidents: hairlip, cleft palate, alb
normalities of the jaw or ears: the
ravages Of illness. grief or age: hid
eous birthmarks that ruin otherwise
attractive faces-all these are being
robbed of their horror by the skill
acquired by sculptor-surgeons of the
battlefield.
The almost miraculous work of
three of the masters of this science
Major Fl. D. Gillies, a young Brit
ish surgeon: Doctor Julien Bour-
guet, of Paris; and DIR. LIE Roy Stod-
dard of New York-is described by
Miss Beckley.
In Queens Hospital at Sidcup.
England, where Major Gillies is
chief surgeon, thousands of wound
ed men have come in sorrow and
gone An gladness" since the opening
in August. 1917. Many cases have
been epoch making for the amazing
way in which delicate mechanical
processes of sculpturing living flesh
have helped the workings of nature.
Major Gillies now devotes several
days each week to civil cases at
other hospitals in and around Lon
don, and he also finds time to un-
dertake outside work for men, wo-
men and children--remodelin faces
marred by deformity or accident.
Doctor Bourguet specializes large
ly in misunderstanding. He has re-
built and repaired more Of these or
gans than any plastic surgeon in
Continental Europe. OF his extraor-
binary work the writer says:
ITO concave noses he has given
bri6ges; convex ones he has reduced
to clear Grecian outlines; Cyrano
noses he has redeemed from all pos
sibility of ridicule: and vanished
noses he has recreatcd in their old
likeness from photographs-all with
out a scar"

Illinois Farm
WOnen'S Life

Springfield, ILL.,, Oct. 25-(By A. P)
One woman in Illinois plows a
corn field eight hours day and then
| finds her greatest recreation in put
ting the kids to bed" while another
lists as a recreation taking a BATH"
| according to answers to a question
naire sent Illinois housewives by the
Home Economic Association assisted
! by the Household Science depart
ment of the Illinois Farmers Insti-
| tute.
From the blowing woman to the
mother who. at the end of a hard
day sought her pleasure in listening
| to the music of the birds" the an
swers tell a vivid story of life in
| Illinois homes. The home maker eX-
| tolled by others in song and story,
! finally has written her own epic. Of
| ficials of the economics association
believe.
The purpose Of the questionable
was to gather information on which
to base a practical schedule of house,
hold work, giving woman an equal
lied ratio of work and recreation.
The women were asked the size of
the family, number Of boys and girls,
names of father and mother, their
ages, whether there were any rela-
tives living in the home dependent
on the family how much time was
devoted to household work. how
much to recreation, and what sort of
labor saving apparatus was in the
home. The QUESTIONABLE was ac-
accompanied by seven blank pages
on which the women were to put
down their schedule of work for each
day in the week.
The answers showed that there is
greater sharing of work and play in
the farm home than in the city home.
That Is, country women work more
and play more than do city women.
1t was also shown that in the homes
of the high grade workingmen there
was a fine cooperation between hus-
band and wife and children. The
size of the home averaged eight
rooms. although it varied from two
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1923-10-26

to eighteen. One-third of the homes
reported no pantries, and one third
had no baths.
Other facts brought out were:
Forty percent Of the women carried
the water they used from wells, While
about 60 percent had running water.
One half of the homes were lighted
by electricity, one tenth by gas and
one third by lamps. Fuel for cook
ing showed many combinations, but
wood was used more than any other
fuel. then came coal and oil, coal in
winter and oil in summer. and in
one home only corn cobs were used.
Sixty two percent of the homes had
furnaces and 80 stoves.
Power driven washing machines
were in SO percent of the homes, and
one fifth of them had hand power
machines. Thirty seven percent had
no washers at all.
Ten to fifteen minutes was the av-
erage time spent in eating a meal.
Forty five to so minutes spent at
table brought an apology.
The versatility of the home maker
was shown by one woman who spent
her time as follows: "Mending auto
top, one hour; baseball, 80 minutes;
stocking. Is minutes"
AS for recreation, there were pic
MICS and auto trips and club meet
ings. Nearly everyone read some
thing.
Care of children was listed as work
by some women and as recreation by
others.

Plans for New
Book Work Industry
Coming to Augusta

With the receipt Thursday, by
| Secretary Folsom of the Chamber of
! COmmercc of letter from J. Ellery
! French of Norwood. Mass, Augusta
| is assured of very fine new industry
the coming spring.
Last summer Mr.. French and his
| partner made an extensive tour of
this State in an endeavor to locate
suitable site for this industry and
! through the efforts of tho local
Chamber of Commerce, Mr.. French
| was induced to give serious consid-
Grafton to locating in this city.
The members of this new firm
have, for a number of years, been
| connected with the Plimpton Press
at Norwood, Mass, and are special
lists in book work. In the new plant
which they will open here they will
! make forms for text books of all
descriptions. The composing work
will he done and the plates made at
the Augusta Electrotype Foundry
and the forms for the completed
books will be shipped elsewhere for
printing.
The top floor OF the Macomber-
Wight block located nearly opposite
the kennebec Journal building has
been secured by Mr.. French and Is
at the present time being remodelled
to meet his needs.
This new industry will give en-
ployment in the beginning to about
20 local people. Mr.. French Gill of
necessity have to bring two or three
specialists with him inasmuch as the
making Of text books is n very par
ticular job. He will be obliged to
have a proof reader that will not
only be able to read several languages
but one that. also understands
mathema tics. trigonometry. etc. as
the plates when they leave here for
printing must be absolutely correct
or the book Is valueless.
J. A. Jackson of the Electrotype
Foundry spent part Of a day with
Mr.. and Mrs. French. when they We're
here recently, showing them about
the city and states that they were
much pleased with its general ap-
pearance. Mr. Jackson also express
sed himself Thursday, when notified
by Secretary Folsom that the new
plant haC finally decided to locate
here, as being very much pleased
with the efficient manner in which
the Chamber of Commerce had hand
led the whole transaction and stated
that inasmuch as it would be the
only plant of it's kind in New England
that 1t will be somewhat of dis
tinction to have It located in Au-
gusta.
