1916, dropping to e. million in the
closing year of the war, 40 million

Our share of world production of

from $50 in 1880 to 1910 in 1880,
1870 in 1870, 2l::o in 1880, $40 in

radical changes as the studies pro-
gress, for according to a very high :
authority "the, additions to our
known supply of iron are likely to
be much greater than those of
coal. since great iron ore beds may
exist anywhere, while those of
coal are chiefly of carboniferous
formation and large share of the
worlds coal supply is known and
measured while the iron ore sup
ply is hardly to be guessed"
One advantage of the United
States in the matter of pig iron
production lies in the fact that its
rich ore beds at the north of the
Great Lakes are mined by the use
of machinery and the ore trans
ferred across the lakes at low cost
by great steamers especially con-
structed for that service, passing
direct to the great coal areas
south of the lakes, and as our.
known iron supply exceeds that
of any other country and our coal
supply about one-ha1f that of the
world it would appear that we
may continue indefinitely our
present high rank in world pig
iron production and the worlds

Auto Wrecks Parked Bicycle

A touring car bearing the license
30-641 ran over bicycle belonging
to Byron Leighton. yesterday noon.
Leighton had stood his wheel by the
curb in front of Wheeler's candy
store on Silver street and had gone
into the store for moment when
two men got into q car that was also
parked on the street, and started up.
Several people who saw them re-
ported that the bicycle was close
enough to the sidewalk to be out of
the path of the car. The wheel of
the auto knocked it down and rolled
over the front wheel. Leighton
came out and asked the men what
they were planning to do about the
damage but they drove off without
settling.

THE BALL GAME

Although Oakland started off to win
the game with Vassalboro yesterday
afternoon by annexing three runs In
the first five stanzas, the Vassalboro-
ties came back so strong in the sixth
that eight men crossed the plate before
the Oakland boys came out of the daze.
II looked like good game until that
big rally, and before 1t was over the
score was IA to 8. There is keen RI
valry between the two teams and on
the sideline there were several hun
bred rooters for both sides. The
ground was rought but the inheid OF
each team kept the error column look
ing good. In the outfield the grass was
tail and a long drive was good for two
and three bases practically every time.

ers away with ease and helped much
toward putting his team on the winning

Congressman Nelson asked the

ence. He declared that the Fourth
, of July was not only the birthday of
this great event but it should be q
day of rebirth, of reawakening and
of reconsecreation of the spirit of
America.
He said that this government of
ours was dedicated to human free
dom, that it could truly be called of
| the people, by the people and for the
people. Such are the ideals of this
America of ours that the poor and
| oppressed from other countries come
! here for freedom to worship God. 1t
| was in the inspiration of these ideals
| that our boys went forth into the
| Greatest of wars.
Speaking of the ceremony at for
NAL retreat, Congressman Nelson
stated that the boys had just done
! something that no foreign land had
ever been able to do that was to
haul down the American flag.
| He declared that the nations flag
is the embodiment of a nations SOUL
that it signifies all that We are and
all that we hope to be.
"That old flag spoke with an elo-
quence transcending. that of mortal
man many times" declared the
/ that stands for freedom of man. II
tells of our battles. of our growth. it
says, beneath my folds the poor and
oppressed have found sanctuary. II
was the flag of Washington, of Lin
coin. the flag of the marines"
| The speaker paid q tribute to the
| state of Maine saying that no state
| in the union has sent more men in
| defence of the flag.
