Indications are that there will be
an exceptionally large attendance at
the big joint meeting of the Augusta
kiwanis Club and the Augusta
Chamber of Commerce, which will
be held today at the Augusta House
from 12.15 to 1.15.
The speaker for the occasion, Col
vim b. Brown, chief of the Organ
ization Bureau of the United States
Chamber of Commerce, has the pas.
two days addressed the Chambers
of Commerce at Portland, at Ban
gor and at Waterville. He will con-
clude his brief but busy visit to
Maine with the meeting in Augusta
this noon.
Mr.. Brown, during the last three
years, has spoken before over 600
Chamber of Commerce meetings in
A different states, and his subject
today will be Your Part in the Ma
TONS Work"
He believes that the small COM
munity plays an important part in
the progress of the nation and WIS.,
ualizes what their endeavor should
be to fulfill that conception. Your
community does not end with your
municipal boundary lines" says Mr..
Brown. But includes the sur
rounding territory which supplies
you with produce and from which
you draw trade. All within this
are members of one community
alike interested in it's prosperity"
The local Chamber of Commerce
was exceptionally fortunate in Sc
curing Mr.. Brown to speak in this
city, There were several other places
which were very anxious to have
Mr.. Brown visit their Chamber ana
address its membership, but through
the efforts of Secretary Folsom OF
the local Chamber. Mr.. Brown was
booked for Augusta long time
ago.
The Augusta Kiwanis Club, in &C.
cordance with the national policy of
that organization, has done every
thing possible to cooperate with the
local chamber and make the meet
ing a big success. Secretary TiffIu
on Thursday evening stated that
there was little question but thar
there would be very large attend
ance OF kiwanis members.

COST OF COLORFUL SCENE
IN "YOLANDA" ENORMOUS


One of the most striking scenes in
"Yolanda," in which Marion Davsei
is starring at the Strand theatre Sun
day and Monday, Nov. 9 and 10. rep
resents the rival armies of France
and Burgundy drawn up In battle
array on the opposite banks of the
Meuse.
Produced at an enormous cost of
time and money, it is n of the
most spectacular scenes ever shown
in the films. 1t depicts thousands of
knights with the sun shining on their
bright armor and the plumes Of
their helmets nodding in the breeze!
The elaborate heralds and the host
of men-at-arms forming the back
ground with their glittering spears
and brilliant banners of France and
Burgundy, makes a particularly eff
fective picture.
Nearly 5000 actors and horses
were used in this cene. Every cos
tune is an exact reproduction of the
livery worn by the soldiers of France
and Burgundy at that period. The
ancient came from some of
the most famous collections of Eur
ope. Nearly $500, 600, was spent for
costumes alone, and experts worked
| for months in order to reproduce the
| correct atmosphere of these great
days of history when France and
Burgundy were combating for the
political domination Of the Continent.

will meet on Thursday night, Nov.

requested to be present as there is
considerable important business to

Mysterious things go on from time
to time and it is very difficult to
ascertain satisfactory explanations.
A red coat was found in a Ford road
ster a short time g and It is suf-
fee to say that the buttons were on
the wrong side Of the coat for a man
and also the coat was far from being
large enough to fit the owner of the
roadster. Perhaps Rabe can tell us
about it or 1t may be possible that
1t is the sequel to another story.

cratic candidate for County and
Prosecuting Attorney lead o. R. Hig-
ley, Republican candidate for that Of
flee, by three votes.
The choice of the people for ma
tional and state offices was decid-
edly In favor of the republican candi-
dates and the final vote shows that
they won over the others by a count
of three and four to one. The DEM
ocrats and Independents ran neck
and neck for presidential electors the
former having a very slight lead.
In the race for county offices the
Republicans won in practically all
cases with a good majority. Practic-
ally all voters cast their ballot in
favor of Stella %Jungquist for Clerk of
the District Court. This office was
not contested by the Republicans.
For County and Prosecuting Attor-
ney A. r. McMicken won over D. r.
Higley by the small margin of three
votes. The remaining offices We're
carried by the republicans with a ma
jority ranging from AZ to 1872.
Locally P. ]. Gibbs, republican,
vas elected Justice Of the Peace of
Precinct One over ]. H. Elliott, DEM
ocrat, by 16 votes. l.. NJ. Johnston,
democrat was elected constable over
Dan Spremo, republican, by So votes.
AS this was the first general cleo
ton ever held in Parco 1t is a signif-
icant fact that our little city carries
a great power in its ability to get out
the vote. Citizens nave shown their
interest in the progressive movement
of industry throughout the country
and the fact hat Parcoites exercised
their franchise on last Tuesday in
such an enthusiastic n is un.
questionable proof that Parco will
continue to progress and grow as she
has done in the past.
