PORTUGUESE GRANT
RIGHT TO INSTALL RADIO

Authority to install and operate
radio telephone apparatus in Por-
tugal is granted in a recent decree
Of the Portuguese government, says
Vice Consul Moers, OF Lisbon.
Prior to this action no legal right
existed whereby amateurs could
install receiving sets, although no
objection had been interposed by
the government. Stores and novelty
shops are now beginning to put in
stocks of radio apparatus.

formerly there was a street that cross
ed the brook west sof the station at
Madison, by means of a bridge. This
street followed along nearly parallel
with and on the south side OF the rail
road tracks, to point near the PUN
mill, where 1t turned to the south and
connected with the main street
This street was used by many oil
the people employed at the pulp mill
going to and coming from their work
The bridge on this street was washed
away during a recent freshet, and the
street was fenced off at the point
where the bridge was washed away
Since then it has been the habit Of
many or the people employed ut the
pulp mill TO use the railroad tracks
as a thoroughfare in going to and
coming from the mill.
I'VE recommend that the officials OF
the railroad take some immediate ae.
ton to prevent this dangerous prac-
tice."

The Third Municipal Concert

The third of a series of four NUM-
cipal concerts will occur at the Opera
House next Sunday afternoon at four
O'clock The two proceeding have
been very enjoyable and there is
every reason to expect next Sunday s
event to be equally entertaining.
These concerts are worthy of more
thought than Is usually devoted to
them. We should all enjoy them bet

free to anyone who wishes to attend
This is made possible by the efforts
of Simon Peters Post, the Citizens
Band, and other citizens who have
given the movement their support. II
may be observed here that this sup
port was not as liberal as it should
have been. Only $1S5 was received
as a result of the letters in which
the plan was proposed last fall
However this may be 1t makes pos
sible a series of high grade munich

need be excluded because he feels uQ-

Consideration of this matter should
take. the value OF our municipal

disposal of any such movement en-
tirely without expense. Did we not
have our splendid auditorium, owned
by the town and available always for
town purposes, this series on their

music is something that is included in

pnbllc rtilifles Attaches no Fault II
Train Crew

The Public Utilities Commission in
its decision rendered Saturday in the
matter of the accident on the Maine
Central Railroad at Madison Febrn-
airy 81 last, resulting in the death OF
James Herd, Jr., aged four years. says
that 1t finds no fault attached TO the
train crew for this accident.
ION February 81, 1924. at 11.51 n. m.
regular passenger train No. 254 struck
and instantly killed James Herd 1ra
aged four years, OF Madison, says
the decision of the Public Utilities
Commission.
"The accident occurred near the
passenger station continues the de-
cision. at appears from the testl-
mony that the child was in the habit
of walking down TO the railroad track
TO meet his father coming from the
pulp mill, where he is employed.
ct appears that the father was late
leaving the mill, and that he did not
arrive at the point where he had been
in the habit of meeting the child, and
that the child started down the tracks
to meet him: and that Train No. 254,
which was about 81 minutes late,
came along, striking the child, in
stantly killing him. No member of
the train crew saw the child on the
tracks. and they were not aware that
there had been an accident until the
arrival Of the train in Oakland. We
find no fault attached to the train
crew for this accident.

Measles are Raging In skowhegan

There are forty cases of measles in
Skowhegan ut the present time, ae-
cording to Health officer Goodrich.
Extreme care and caution is strongly
advised in preventing a further spread
of the malady.
People generally have been rank
ing measles as one of the diseases
from which there is but little danger
and therefore one with which it isn't
worth while TO bother. But the fact
is that measles is a very serious in
fictitious disease. The number of
deaths from measles in our state is on
the average more than twice as many
as from scarlet fever and is more
than one-half the number of the
deaths from diphtheria.
But this Is far from being the whole
story of the measles danger. Many
children are left for some time. or for
a hong time, with impaired health;
some acquire impaired hearing or be-
come deaf from suppuratiye infam-
nation of the middle ear: nearly all
are left with their eyes so weakened
that defective sight may be the result
If they return to school too soon. In
military encampments the advent of
this disease is always considered n
serious matter, for the rapldity with
which it spreads and for the high
death-rate which, in such places. ar
companies or follows an outbreak.
Aside from the death-rate which is
charged TO measles many lives are
lost from pneumonia, bronco-pneu
monia and other affections which are
the sequels of measles; and tubercu-
losis, aggravated by or following
measles, claims many victims.
