Simplicity in
Dress a Feature
OF 1924 GraduatiOns,
DIR. Thomas Asserts

"There Is no reason now why any
member of the senior classes of the
normal or high schools In the State
should drop out before Commence
ment on account of graduation ex-
penses," asserted DIR. Augustus y.
Thomas, State commissioner OF eou-
cation, on Tuesday.
DIR. Thomas stated that he had re-
Gently attended the graduation exer-
cises at 10 or IL of these institutions
in the State and was impressed by
the simplicity of the styles. indicat-
ing that the young people are taking
a sensible point of view in this
matter. Many of the girls in these
classes have made their own dresses,
thus justifying the Home Economics
courses in the curriculum in 70 or S0
Of the high schools of the State.
And the young men are also econo-
MIXING, many having not spent dol
lar in getting ready for graduation.
The students have economical not
only in the matter of dress but also
on graduation decorations. and In
spite of this the dresses are just as
artistic and the graduation decora-
lions just as beautiful as a few years
ago when the cost of graduation was
a heavy burden for many students.
It is not the expensive clothes that
count for today any student who has
a good record in scholarship can get
class honors without the necessity of
spending a good deal of money for
clothing.

All of these boys are thoroughly

trict. They know far more about
the pedigree of different animals
than most men and can talk to any
dairyman on the good points of
their animals or any others. With
this club they hope to make q
start ir. developing dairymen among
the boys and girls of Kenduskeag
Valley.
Already three other boys, Oren

planned that the boys will show
their heifers at different fairs an
other year.

Penobscot County.

Henry in telling Of his animal, but

Henry is one of the five boys who
started a purebred Jersey CLUB in
Kenduskeag Valley last week. Each
of these youngsters own their own
animal, all of which are registered
and traced back to famous stock.
The boys do all the work Of manag-
ing their heifers and keep milk rec
Crds on their production. Every
day they weigh the milk and every
SO often have it tested. In this
way they know definitely what each
animal is doing.
The club started with five boys
as charter members. Forrest Black

was elected president. On the day
the club was organized, Forrest
purchased heifer from E. D. Page

engineers, who have been in the
United States about a month study
ing highway construction and main
tenance, called at the office of Paul
D.. Sargent, chief engineer Of the
State highway commission, Tuesday
afternoon.
They left on the train Tuesday
evening for Ellsworth where they
will meet A. J. Wiggin. superintend-
ent of maintenance of the state high
way department, and this morning
they will be shown the methods of
surface treating gravel roads with
tar. This work is being done in the
vicinity of Ellsworth, at Hermon and
al Pittsfield.
They will be in conference this af-
ternoon with the engineers of the
Maine highway commission looking
over plans, specifications and typical
methods of highway construction.
On Thursday, Friday and Saturday
of this week they will be taken into
the field and shown the various con-
struction projects which are now in
operation.
The engineers stated to Chief En-
gineer Sargent of the Maine depart
ment that although they have visited
Washington, d. c., Illinois, Wiscon-
sin and Minnesota, they feel that
conditions in Maine are more nearly
similar to those in Sweden than any
other part of this country. They are
especially interested in stone base
and foundation work on clay soils
with both gravel and bituminous
macadam surfaces.
Their visit to Maine is the result of
the visit made about a year ago by
Mr.. Baalsrud, director of highways
of the kingdom OF Norway.

Ask Additional
Fishing Rules for
Belgrade Stream

The Department of Inland Fish
cries and Game is in receipt of an
emergency petition from the munich
pal officers Of the town of Belgrade.
county Of Kennebec. asking for ad-
ditional rules and regulations re-
lating to fishing in Belgrade stream
ana In lngham stream, making the
law as to legal length and daily limit
OF fish conform to that now existing
in the lakes of the Belgrade Chain.
Hearing on this matter has been as
signed for Tuesday morning, June
24th, at 10 o'clock, at the postoffice
at Belgrade Lakes. The petition
reads as follows:
We, the undersigned, Municipal
Officers of the Town of Belgrade. re-
spectfully represent that the fishing
interests of the Belgrade Chain of
Lakes and connecting waters re-
quire that the same limit as now ex-
lists on the lakes of the Belgrade
Chain, as to legal length and daily
limit OF fish, be placed on Belgrade
otream and lngham Stream, recently
opened to fishing by the Department
of Inland Fisheries and Game. in ac-
cordance with law. after due notice
and hearing.
Inc existing situation, in the, opin-
ion Of your petitioners, constitutes
an emergency as contemplated by
statute. The summer fishing season
has already commenced, and large
number Oh people are fishing in Bel
grade Stream and Ingham Stream,
and 1t is feared that If the same reg
ulations applying to the lakes are not
made applicable to Belgrade Stream
and Ingham Stream, fishing interests
In these waters will be jeopardized.
We, therefore, ask that you con.
slider the existing situation as an
emergency as contemplated by stat.
ute and order hearings at the earliest
possible date on this petition so that
the parties interested may have an
opportunity to be heard.
When the Belgrade and Ingham
streams were opened last fall the ne
titfon calling for the revocation OF
regulations asked that these streams
be opened in accordance with the
general law. which was done. Since
hshing has been legal in these waters.
parties interested realize that they
should have asked in the original Pc
tition that the legal ength and daily
limit of fish in said streams be made
the same as that on the Belgrade
Chain of Lakes. viz, legal length Of
trout. 10 inches;, black bass. 10
inches. Daily limit on black bass.
