At the Spaulding pharmacy yester-
day a clearing up process brought 10
light a book nearly a hundred years
old. It is apparently the earliest pre-
seription book, sort OF scrappook
with the prescriptions pasted IN ana
numbered. The first one bears the date
of Dec. Q, 1887, and is numbered care
fully prescription one" The prescrip..
tons seem to be written on scraps OF
paper of varying sizes, kinds and COL
ors. DR.. Aliens name so appears sew
eral times. Many OF the prescriptions
are for members Of old Hallowell fami-
lies. The name Of Eliphalet Gillet. one
of the early pastors Of the Old south

wide reputation in his day, called the
addison of Maine" appears there'

Gus sedatives and nerve tonics. Moth

information.

Rev. A. w. Burr
Speaks at H. H. S.
Assembly Thursday

Rev. A. w. Burr. former principal
of the Hallowell Classical academy,
Yesterday morning visited the high
school. which stands on the site of
the old classical. He was accompan-
led by Judge G. A. Stafford of the
Hallowell board of education, and
Miss Abby l.. Eveleth and Mrs. Ben
Tenney, former pupils of Mr.. Burr's
and graduates of the classical school.
The guests arrived in time for the
morning assembly and the school
had the pleasure OF listening to Mr..
Burr speak on the question Of study.
He was pleasingly introduced by
Judge Stafford.
Mr.. Burr's remarks were addressed
directly to the student body. He de-
fined play as what the pupil did
which he wanted to do and at the
time he wanted to do 1t. and work as
what he did because 1t had to do 1t
and at a time when he had to do II.
Then he declared that work could be
turned into play. He gave a number
of interesting illustrations of how
this might be done, choosing incidents
and persons from his own wide ex-
perience.
One example which made consider
able impression upon his listeners
was the story Of the boy who at Is
did not even know that there were
such things as reading and writing.
but who in six years thereafter went
through the grades from the primary,
and through high school, doing the
work with ease because he wanted to
do 1t.
He closed with the definite and
practical counsel to the pupils that
they set definite time limit to each
task and then try to break their own
records. Mr.. Burr has within recent
years spoken to some 5000 high
school pupils and he certainly knows
how to interest them. The applause
accorded him was hearty and sin.
cere. The guests remained for some
time visiting classes and inspecting
the workings of the school.

SAYS COOLIDGE
ATTITUDE ON
KHAN IS SAME
C.. Bascom Slemp Says He's
Not in Sympathy With
Aims of Organization

Washington, Oct. 11.-President
Coolidge's attitude toward the Ku
Klux Klan "has long been known
to those who are in touch with
him." C. Bascom Slemp, secretary
to the President, wrote in recent
letter to James E. Deery of India
napolis. Mr.. Deery had inquired
of Mr.. Slemp concerning his re-
cent statement that "the Presi-
dent had repeatedly stated that
he is not a member of the order
and is not in sympathy with the
aims and purposes"
"Would you be so kind" Mr..
Deery wrote, "as to advise me of
the time and place and the words
used by the President when he
stated he was not in sympathy with
the aims and purposes of the Ku
Klux Klan?"
Mr.. Slemp's reply follows:
Replying to your inquiry, l am
not able, for reasons that l am
sure, you will understand, to refer
to you to the occasion when the
President has discussed this mat
ter. His attitude regarding it has
long been known to- those who are
in. touch with him, and it was to
this general understanding that
reference was made in my letter" )"

COOLIDGE HAS
GREAT LEAD
President Continues To Pile
Up Big Total

A larger vote for President
Coolidge than for all other can
didates combined, and a larger vote
for LaFollette than for Davis, are
the two outstanding features of
the fourth weeks tabulation of the
gigantic straw poll of The Liter
ary Digest which is out to-day.
Of the nearly million and a half
votes recorded, Coolidge has $685.
$40, La Toilette, 351 ,178, and Davis
275,674. Returns have now been
received from forty-two States but
the Digest calls attention to the
fact that the Southern States
have been tardy in returning thei,
ballots. Their returns will swell
the Davis vote to a higher figure
Davis is now leading in nine
States and La Toilette is still
carrying Wisconsin against both
his opponents. The Progressive
candidate is running second in
twenty-one States and Davis is
trailing the leader in twelve.
All previous records for the
fourth week Of national poll are
broken by the present tabulatior
of 1,451, ,591 votes, The Digest
states, passing the previous high
mark for this stage of any poll
by more than 100000.
