= What Is a Shooting Starr

In the vast space beyond our
earth are many tiny "earths," some
weighing perhaps a few tons, others
of only the weight of grains. These
are attracted to the larger "earths"
that they approach in their courses
round the sun.
Any of these small bodies getting
within the pull of the gravity of our
earth is dragged down to it. So it is
that every hour of the day we are
literally bombarded by bodies being
drawn to us from space.
These bodies do not hurt us be-
cause they have first to meet our air
belt. which acts like a cushion and
slows down their fall. The check.
in fact, is so sudden that it causes
an intense heat--as the sudden
braking of the train-wheel will
cause sparks-and the body is set on
fire with the friction This is what
we see falling as a Shooting star"
We seldom are hit by the star it
self, as before it reaches us it's own
heat generally dissolves it into dust,
1t enough is left to hit the earth. we
call 1t meteorite.

Chief Police Dunn
Captures Bath Man
Charged with Larceny

Fred Small of Bath was arraigned
in the Gardiner municipal court Fri
day morning before recorder Clason
on the charge of larceny, pleaded
guilty and was turned over to the
Augusta police. Small was captured
in South Gardiner Thursday evening
by chief of police, Roscoe c. Dunn of
Gardiner. Chief Dunn received re-
port Thursday evening that Small
was in South Gardiner and he went
to that town alone and traced him
to a pool room and arrested him sin
gle, handed and brought him and
the automobile which he had stolen
in Augusta to this city. Small, who
was a deserter from the army was
in a detention home in California
from which he escaped and came to
Gardiner. He was given ride by
Walter Scott of this city and taken
into the Scott home on River avenue.
While there he was left alone in a
room and stole a watch, two neck
chains, one with an Eastern Star
pendant, the other set with green
stone, also a ring, jack knife and
fountain pen. One of the chains and
the ring was found on his person
when he was captured by Chief
Dunn, and through the chiefs eff
forts the watch was located in Hal
lowell where it had been pawned, and
the chain was recovered from a boy
in Gardiner. Small has stolen a Ford
runabout from Bernard l.. Turner,
of Augusta and had changed the
number plates from another car to
the stolen rone.s After Chief Dunn
had" captured him, IN South Gardiner

Airplanes Find Lost Lakes

Locating and photographing undis-
covered lakes in the national forests
of Alaska are the latest uses to
which the airplane has been put,
says the forest service, United States
Department of Agriculture.
1t has long been known that there
are many lakes on the headlands and
islands traversed by the inside pass
age between Seattle and Skagway
that do not appear on any map.
During the. New York Nome fight
made by army aviators lakes were
frequently sighted which could not
be found on the latest and most
authentic maps of the territory.
Tales of unknown water bodies are
constantly being brought in by the
trappers and prospectors. Less than
a year ago a lake four and one
half miles long and one-half mile
wide was discovered at the head of
Short bay. This lake has more than
1000 acres of surface area and is
less than one and one quarter mile
from tidewater, yet because of the
surrounding country's rough to-
Biography has remained unknown and
unnamed.
Recognizing that many others of
these lost lakes" may be sources
of valuable water power. the forest
service has laid plans to map this
noman's land of the north by means
of aerial photographs. A few days
flight it is said, will be sufficient to
cover the area with a degree of ac-
curacy that would require many
years and great expense to accom-
plish by ordinary methods.
The work, which has been ap-
proved by the federal power commits
sion. win be done by seaplane, flying
from Ketehikan. as a. base.

Belfast High Cancels

Belfast High late Friday afternoon
cancelled its game with Hallowell.
Coach Falconi called up some 20
schools throughout the State and final
ly succeeded in getting Camden to play

Field. Camden is a stronger team than
Belfast and good game may be
looked for. 1t is hoped that there will
be an excellent attendance as the local
team is under a heavy expense, Cam
den requiring a large guarantee. This
game will probably end the season.
Hallowell's record is one of which
school and town may well be proud.
