There were many long faces in
Lamoine when the storm came last
Wednesday afternoon Everything
was ready for the fortieth anniver-
sary of Lamoine grange, and it was
a disappointment to cancel the Wis
its of several speakers whom we ex-
pected to take part in the exercises.
However, Thursday was a beautiful
day overhead and the grangers de-
cided to celebrate. Telephones were
busy at an early hour, and nearly
100 answered the call to be at the
hall in time for dinner. The after
noon was devoted to the work Of
Green Mountain Pomona. Dewey
Smith, master of Lamoine grange,
gave the address of welcome, Mrs.
Eunice Young and Charles Gambler,
the responses. Mrs. Klaus, lecturer
of the Pomona, put on clever must
cal program, "The Dress Rehearsal
of the Kitchen Orchestra of Lamolne
Grange" There were forty charter
members in Lamoine grange, ten OF
whom are now living. During the
evening letters were read from seven
of the ten. F. p Washburn, COM
missioner of agriculture, gave an in
teresting lecture on 'The Advan-
tages and Disadvantages of Agricul-
ture in Name illustrated by Ian
tern slides. At the close of his lee
ture, Mr., Washburn kindly showed
eighty-six slides made from views in
Lamoine and vicinity. These slides
were loaned the committee by Miss
Anna Young, and were made for the
Lamoine reunion, held in Cambridge,
Mass. The history of the grange
was in three parts, the first written
by Mrs. Villa Hodgkins in 1898, the
second by Mrs. Sarah Young in 1914
and the third by Mrs. Eunice Young,
covered the last ten years. Music
was under the direction of Mrs.

Pirates of Penzance."

Another of the favorite old Gilbert

milder burlesque helped last evening,
at Polls, to carry the oldtimers back
to the years when their eyes were
bright and their hearts were glad, and
the newer generation further into the
field of "innocent merriment," which
has not been youchsafed in modern
entertainment to an appreciable de-.
gree in many, many years.
OF course, that adorable De Wolf

audience described him, was in evil
dence. He said in his curtain speech,
which has now come to be one OF the
vital features of the performance, that

matter of consequence, and so, to
make up the manifest deficiency, he

and his unmade-up self. as he has
never given it before during his stay.
1t was the old Hopper and the old
Casey with a vengeance, and brought
out the usual roar of applause.
The music of the opera is beautiful.
although the characters and actior-
throughout are comical to degree.
The weary program man, however.

in recalling them correctly. but they
served to bring out the rich qualities
of the voices of Herbert Waterous,

Altogether, Pirates of PenZance' is

But, reverting to the performance,

Belasco- -Rollo' Wild Oat.

An amusing little comedy, encir-
cling the sowing of "Rollo's wild
Oat." opened at the Shubert Belasco
Theater last night, and in it Donald
Gallaher and Lotus Robb strike mortal
blows at summer apathy.
A plentitude of laughs is packed
away in this three-act comedy by
Clare Hummer, but there are times
when pathos sits at the steering
wheel.
The story concerns youngster
with the ambition to play Hamlet" :"
The melancholy Dane is 1.-The Wild
Oat." Rollo Webster is the young
man, who feels he has much to give
the world via the stage. His disil-
lusionment, an accompanying love
theme, and his final rescue of a
sweetheart from the footboards to
the household form the tracks on
which the presentation travels
through it's six scenes.
Donald Gallagher, as Rollo, does
his stuff in a way that makes one
almost-not quite-forget that Bobby
Ames has gone into temporary retire
ment on account of illness. And
Lotus Robb-blesS her wistful eyes
is still our Lotus Robb. Harry Irving
measures up nicely as Mr.. Stein. the
typical producer of stage things; the
character skit of A. j. Rhodes as

BREWTY IS GOAL
/ IN DAVIS SPEECH
Dsnocratic Nominee Seeks
to Make His Acceptance Ad-
dress Shortest on Record.

BY Sfte Associated Press.
IHARk HARBOR, ISLEBORO, Maine,
July pa precedent in brevity is
the goal of John w. Davis in the
preparation of his address accepting
the Democratic presidential nomina-
tion.
His idea now is to cover the field
generally, with emphasis on the more
important issues Of the day such as
honesty in government, foreign af-
fairs, taxes, and tariff and farm re-
lief. The occasion requires. the dis
cussion of so many different subjects
that Mr.. Davis cannot make his speech
as brief as he would like.
While he has not determined final
1y upon even the framework, his
present intention is to confine the
whole discussion to approximately
1000 words, which would require
about 40 minutes in delivery.
The notification address, to be made
by Senator Thomas ]. Walsh of Mon
tana, permanent chairman of the New
York Democratic convention. prob
ably Will be equally as brief, 80 that

Lar affairs, at least in recent years.
Studying Platforms.
In the preparation of his address
the nominee is studying the several
party platforms and the keynote ad-
dresses delivered at the Cleveland
and New York conventions, having
discussed the whole subject gener-
ally with party leaders in the series
of conferences held at New York
during the week after his nomina-
tion.
He has not even put in memo
randum form any of the suggestions
that have come to him.
This stage of the preparation will
come later in the week. as he studies
out his subjects while roaming the
. woods and fields on the Gibson estate,
or occupying the studio of his host
in its setting of spruce and fir.
Having devoted two days to COM
plete rest, Mr.. Davis had his first
recreation yesterday. a round of golf
on the Tarratine course. which winds
along cove and through woods
where once the Tarratine Indians
pitched their wigwamS or stalk ed
game. Frank L. Polk. his former
law partner and friend and adviser,

GOVERNOR MAY FOREGO
SHIP-WATER REFERENDUM
North Carolina Executive Will Not
Put Matter to Voters if Leg
isIature Passes 1t.
By the Associated Press.


CHARLOTTE, y. c.. July 22.-Gov.
Morrison. arriving here last night
from Raleigh on his way to the
mountains of Western North Caro-
lima for d vacation. said that he
would not insist upon submission of
the proposed ship and water trans
portation question to vote of the
people in a referendum in connection
with the November election. if the
Legislature, called to meet in extra
session August I to deal with the
question. would adopt the program
outlined by the ship and water trans
portation commission in its recent
report to the governor and Council OF
State.
The governor had previously an
nounced his intention to recommend
to the Legislature in it's special ses-
sion that the matter be submitted in
a referendum, but he said tonight
that he now believed that the major
ity of the members of the Legisla-
ture are in favor of the program, and
if the assembly would adopt it and
enact the necessary legislation to put
it into effect, he would not insist
upon a referendum. though he was
confident the people of the State
would adopt it by their vote.
