Gardiner Hunters
Find. Ford in Woods

While two of Gardeners hunters
were recently out in the woods they
came across new Ford sedan and
they, as usual. thought that it be-
longed to some other hunters that
were in the woods and they gave tho
matter little thought. They were in
the woods again about four weeks
later and saw the same machine
standing there as it was when they
first came upon it. They examined it
and found it had not been used and
it was also found that the engine and
radiator had been frozen and burst
They have notified the Massachu-
sets dealer whose license plate it
bore and are awaiting an answer
from them. There is every indica~
ton that the machine was stolen and
abandoned as the supply Of gas was
low and they probably did not dare
to have a new supply furnished.

Belgium Has Policy
Of Own On ReparatiOns

Brussels. Nov. Shy A. P.)-Bel-
GUMS PREPARATION policy is her own;
it does not follow blindly either
France or England says asemi off =
cial communique issued today
through the Belgian Telegraphic
agency.
The present discussion shows, ac-
cording to the eommunique that
Belgium has always followed a
personal policy inspired by her own
interests, and that she is not sub
servient to any one"
This policy continues the state
ment, SIS national in it's essence and
also has the character of an entente
cordiale with France and England.
1t is not correct to speak of any ten
sion of relations between Belgium
and France or of a dhange of front
by the Belgian government through
abandonment of the French view in
favor Of the British. The Belgian
government continues to follow its
own policy; wherever it is not ex-
actly parallel to that of France or
England it discusses the questions
with its friends in London and Paris
with the intent and hope of estab-
fishing an accord"

rick secretary. Miss Ada Edgecomb

one G. Ernest Luce; ward two, Mr..
Bigelow; ward three, Mrs Howard
Andrews; ward four, Dana c. SkilIin;
ward five. Miss Gilpatrick. The pro-
gram this year is exceptionally at
tractive and since there is to be no Au-
gusta course this year Hallowell citi-
zens may be expected to make the
most of the opportunity offered in this
local course.
For the first day there are to be de-
lightful representations by VIM. Sterl-
ing BATHS and the Demille Male Quar-
tet. The second day the Batting
Mailer entertainers. music and read

last day the Oriental Pageant by julius
Caesar Nymphe will offer something
as fine as can be seen in the larger
cities. That alone. would repay one
for attending the course.

Dubois Entertains
High School Students
With Clever limitations

H. w. Dubois of II. w. Dubois Co..
Boston, called at the Hallowell High
school Monday noon. After trans
acting his business with Mr.. Pack
ard. superintendent of schools, he
suggested to Mr.. Blaisdell, the prin-
cipal, that he convene the school
for a short lecture on aviation and
entertainment, consisting of imita-
tions of birds. barnyard animals and
farm machinery.
He quoted Brig. General Mitchell
of the Army Air Service. who pre-
dicted before long a business man
leaving New York for London would
travel at a possible speed of so
miles an hour, have luncheon, trans
act his business and return the same
night.
Mr.. Dubois following his lecture
on aviation asked the boys and girls
to close their eyes, grip their seats,
and raise their feet slightly from
the floor. While in this attitude they
concentrated their minds on the fact
that they were seated in a giant air
plane and were mentally visualizing
the scenery between Hallowell and
Portland. Mr.. Dubois then so real
istically initiated the whirr of an
aeroplane motor, the Liberty t.Ie,
LIul Ills HSdTSES WSIC
ed by the experience.
A trip to the woods with bird calls
by Mr.. Dubois. closely followed By
visit to a farm where the sounds
of cattle and poultry were realisti-
cally interpreted. with Miss Wood
side at the piano. Mr.. Dubois also
initiated trombone, banjo and
Whistled with bird-like notes.
In conclusion Mr.. Dubois imper-
sonated several delightful charac-
tiers and recited an inspiring poem,
"Give Us Men," and called the stu
dents attention to the realities Of
life and the Importance Of develop
ing q good character.
The return flight to Hallowell was
as realistic as the start of the imagr
mary outing and all applauded this
remarka BILE exhibition of talent with
great enthusiasm.
H. w. Dubois has appeared at the
Lewiston Kiwanis Club three times
during the last year, u. of NJ, Ban
gor and Portland Rotary Clubs and
has broadcast his talent over radio
from stations WBZ and WNAC of
Springfield and Boston. He is eX-
pected to entertain the Y. M. c. A.

Advantages in
Fine Fall Weather

The dryness of the fall has allowed
those who take pride in their places
to clean up and burn the rubbish
about. While there is now wind
blowing, the air is filled with a
dense smoke at times that permeates
into the homes and leaves an odor
that remains for quite a time There
are many who use the fallen leaves
for banking and bedding purposes
and these have been secured and the
remainder of them have been burned
There will probably be less leaves
on the ground this year when the
snow comes than for many years
past. Many who do not like to work
| on the Sabbath day but are obliged
! to owing to the shortness of the day
and the beautiful weather are resort
ing to the semi-annual use of the
word recently for Sunday. the
other time of year when this is used
is during the spring fishing season.
