good yards several times but only to
lose the ball on a tumble or some

Gooding by series of split bucks
and forward passes came down the
field almost to the goal line where
a line plunge carried the ball over
for the first touchdown. Their try
for point was also made.
The next half Gooding came back
with the same old stuff and Oakley
couldn't stop them and once more
they went over for touchdown and
their try for a point was also made. /
The last quarter Oakley woke up
a little and played better football
and when Critchfield intercepted a
pass and ran 40 yards for a touch
down, they frightened up. The try

When the Emblem was shelled and
sunk. Look was taken captive by the
British. who brought him to the in
ternment camp at Singapore. Look
and several companions made their
escape through the jungle and
through swampy regions they finally
reached the ocean. They espied a

the island Of Sumatra after IL hours.
Here Look was again interned. and

Is the best thing in sight. Eventually
we must have such an organization,
said Mr.. White In conclusion. as he
urged every dairyman present to
work FOR the success Of the New Eng
land Dairy System. p.
Judging demonstrations OF dairy
and beef type were valuable features
Of the meeting. Using two Of the
Luce Jerseys as examples, Professor
l.. 8. Corbett of University OF Maine
went over the animals point by ppint,
showing the good ant weak chaTac-
tiers OF each and explaining the IDEAL
of dairy conformation. The aame
thing was done by DR.. K. J. Seulke of
Jefferson Farms. using three Aber-
deem Angus calves supplied by Ralph
L.. Worthley of Strong. This was a
novel feature. as few of the stociunen
present had ever seen such a graphic
representation of the difference be.
tween beef and dairy conformation.
While this was going on the women
visitors were listening to Miss Doris
Lake OF the faculty OF Battle Cteek
College who discussed Food Habits
and laid special stress on the absolute
necessity of an adequate supply OF
milk for all. but especially for grow
ing children.
Under the direction Of Miss Mar
1orte r. Symonds. Franklin Comfy
Home Demonstration Agent, the wo.
men OF the county staged a Display
of manufactures by the ladies' OF the
Farm Bureau. stressing particularly
the fireless cooker and millinery pro-
jects.

FIVE hundred stock men from all parts
Of Maine gathered at the farm of C.
E. and A. J. Luce yesterday for the
annual Field Day Of the Maine Live

unexpectedly large, and the spirit OF
the visitors was remarkably opti-

ones, to see familiar faces in the
crowd and to look over the home Of
the Luce Jerseys. which have made
themselves famous on the Maine
show circuit
The meeting proper was held In the
spacious maple. grove few rods
from the Luce farmstead, and the
cool shade was most refreshing after
the blistering sunshine on roads and
fields. Even with this aid. the speak
ers had difficulty in drawing the
crowd away from the farm and house.
so great was the interest in the
farms livestock and in the display Of
home demonstration products turn

County Farm Bureau.
In a few well chosen remarks Clyde
Luce welcomed the visitors to the
farm. E. D. Page of Bangor. another
well known Jersey breeder. and pres
ident of the Maine Livestock Breed

expressing the pleasure Of the stock
men at being able at last to view the
source Of the stock the ysaw year
