Did you read yesterdays story,
little boy and little girl? Because
IL you didn't maybe you'll wonder
why Grandaddy Bullfrog suddenly
locked into the little bunny's anxious
face and said:
"Yes sir. Tadpoles and Camels
are something alike" Goodness
gracious, it does seem queer that a
tiny tadpole is even anything like a
great big camel that travels over the
sandy deserts. Well, that's just IT.
IL he didn't travel over great waste
spaces of sand he wouldn't nave
any use for more than one stomach
in which to store up supply OF
water. And il the tiny Tadpole as
he grows into a frog had 20
further use for his tail he wouidnt
be able to use 1t for nourishment I'M
til it disappears altogether when ne
turns into a toad or frog.
AS Granddaddy Bullfrog finished
explaining all this to the curious Ut
tie bunny boy, that wise old Fellow
wiped his spectacles on hiypad
and smoothcd his waistcoat. Then
winking his great big eyes, he gulp-
ed down another fly.

Charles D. Kidder, field represen-
tative of the State of Maine Public
ity Bureau at Portland, has re-
signed because of Ill health. Mr..
kidder has left for Florida, where he
has accepted a business engagement
and where he hopes to remain until
he Is improved. Mr.. kidder. was
bcrns in Washington county. In this
State, but had not lived in it for
many years or until he came to
Portland to assist in organizing the
Publicity Bureau three years ago.
He had served throughout the World
War and upon retirement went into
the money raising campaign bust
ness. where he was extremely sue
cessful. 1t was in this capacity that
he first came 20 the bureau. When
he had completed his work of OBJ
tanning the necessary support for the
establishment of this now popular
institution he was retained by its
directors to continue the work of
getting the voluntary subscriptions
by which it is maintained. Last
Spring he was taken Ill and was in
the hospital for several months and
it was FAN before heNwas able to
return to his d1ties. His health did
not improve. however. as fast as he
had hoped. and he decided to resign
and accept an offer to go to Florida,
where he felt he might gain faster.
The Falmouth Foreside Methodist
Episcopal Church is really on
the dividing line between Fall
mouth and Cumberland. SO that
when the pastor stands at the desk,
he is preaching in both towns. 1t
Is even possible for him to stand in
the pulpit with one foot in Falmouth
and the other in Cumberland. And
although the old singing gallery"
still stands in the rear of the audi
erce room. the pretty chapel organ
row used stands at the left of the
pulpit, so the organist IS in Cumber-
land. If the minister stands a little
to the right of the pulpit, which
brings him in Falmouth while he
breaches in Falmouth the members
of the choir. who stand at the left of
the pulpit sing in Cumberland. AS
nearly as Eau be lIJC
church was built in 1Sl0-ll, rs a
union church and was so used for
q number of years. That this old
meeting house was built in n sub
stantial manner was proven by the
fact that 1t was not until 1881 that
any considerable repairs were neces-
sary, when, during the pastorate of
Rev. Eli Hutchinson. the interior
was greatly improved. At that time
the pews were newly painted and
vanished, a. handsome chandelier
placed in the audience room, and n
fine chapel organ. was presented to
the society by Ralph Sennett of
Falmouth. Conn. Rev. Charles r.
Sinden, VINO recently accepted the
pastorate of the church, has tenta-
tive plans for replacing the present
historic structure with a modern
building adequately equipped tor
community activities. Mr.. Sinden Is
a Methodist. but he believes in a
broad type of work and is already
fostering the community idea in the
suburban church. where he has
taken up his duties.

SENSIBLE ADVICE
FROM HOOVER

Herbert Hoover. Secretary of Commerce gave the
coal consumers of the nation piece of good advice when
he urged them to lay in coal supplies during the summer
One of the great evils of the coal mining industry has
been the uctuation in demand for coal Long periods OF
ideness at the mines have been followed by periods OF
high production when the best efforts of the miners have
been unable to keep up with the demand.
BY spreading the demand for coal more evenly over
the months of the year. regular work for the miners
assured Regular work for the who dig coal would
mean the solving of big problem in the coal industry
and would be of tremendous benefit to the nation and IN
dustry as whole. As Mr.. Hoover says:
1--WE have natioanl problem in securing cheaper coal
by maintaining more regularity in the production of our
coal mines by planning out its seasonal fluctuations THIS
can only be brought about if the coal consumers are Will
ing to store coal during the low production season.
Aside firm the question of keeping coal labor regular
y employed Mr. Hoover pointed out that buying of coal
in summer would prevent the coal shortage which occurs
in the fall "The fall shortage he sad always has
the effect of increasing the price of coal and of seriously
disturbing the whole economic machine Security lies IN
repeating the storage performance of last year by the
manufacturers of the country taking reserves of coal dur
ing the months of May, June and July thus foregoing the
necessy of coal shipments during the peak period in
petition with the household movement Outside of strike
years these months universally the period OF
lowest bituminous coal prices

CITY COUNCIL VOTES
PENSION LAW
FOR POLICEMEN

The city commissioner at their
regular session last Monday placed on
passage an ordinance providing for
the pensioning Of policemen and police
officials VINO have been on the force
for twenty years or more.
According To City Attorney Wood
the ordinance will have to be gone
over and corrected 50 as TO conform
completely 10 the state law under
which the pension Is granted.
Three officers Of the police force
are eligible under the law for pensions
Chief Of Police Keller, James Coch-
rane and John Gerrett.
The latter is already receiving a
pension as a member Of the fire de-
partment, and will probably not be
granted a penison under the police law
should it pass the city council and
become a law. This leaves but two
men who are eligible.
None Of the other officers on patrol
men on the payroll are eligible, and
will not be for some years.

BLIND MAN DIS
COVERS CURE
FOR MALADY

Johnnie Gentille, we'll known in
Champaign, has discovered a cure for
rheumatism which Is just now being
placed on the market.
Gentille, who is blind, has spent
years of his life studying the formula
which he claims to have perfected un-
til he is able to make reasonable
guarantee that the treatment Will
bring relief to patients suffering from
the disease which in large measure
has thwarted the efforts of physicians
for centuries.
Mr.. Gentille has laboratory in
which he prepares the remedy, without
assistants. He has recently sold his
business on East University avenue
and will hereafter devote his entire
time to pushing his remedy on the
market.
A number who have taken the
remedy, which is known as Johnnie 3
Linamentp have been outspoken IN
their praise of its virtues, and profess
to have been cured by it.

ALLEGED KILLER
MAY GO FREE
SAY OFFICERS

The trial of Cecil Thomas, who is
alleged to have murdered Diamond
Bill Manning, we'll known in the col
ored district of Champaign, may not
be convicted according to local officers
vino expect soon to Try his case.
Thomas, who has been in Jail since
his arrest in Michigan some time ago
on the charge of numbering Manning,
will have no witnesses against him In
court, with the possible exception of
one who is expected TO testify to the
killing. Other witnesses according to
the officers have vanished, and cannot
be located.
Officers point out that the difficulty
of holding witnesses through a period
of months while suspect is await
ing trial, is the direct cause OF 80
many criminals escaping conviction.
Gases dragged through several
courts usually end in acquiital owing
to the fact that witnesses disappear.
There appears to be no way In which
witnesses, innocent themselves Of
crime, can be forced TO remain in a
community while the suspect Is await
ing trial.
The only solution of the problem,
officers state, is to adjust the courts
SO that an early trial Is possible.
