C. of C. Busy
Place This Summer

The office of the Waterville-Wins-
low Chamber of Commerce is per-
haps the best indicator of the sum-
mer business being carried on this
year in Central Maine and the large
increase in population due to it. The
Chamber stands ready to answer the
myriad questions the yacationists
may have, is prompt in finding help
for those camps that need it and
in assigning positions for those who
seek work. On record and accessi-
BILE whenever the Chamber rooms
are open is complete library of
catalogues and other literature per-
tanning to the camps, by the use of
which many vacationists have found
a happy place in which to rest and
amuse themselves.
The queries of those in other
states who have heard of the beau
ties of Maine as a vacation ground
are very many and the mail of Mrs.
Florence NJ. Wallace is swelled as a
result. For the most part the writ
ers simply desire to find a camp or
resort especially adapted to their
needs and wishes and these are
quickly cared for. But those who
are more specific and are on the
watch for a cure for hay fever or
a certain type of mineral spring wa
ter offer more of a problem and it is
with some difficulty that their de-
sireS are met

Endeavorers Warned
About Liquor Problem

Portland, Ore, July S-(AP)-Use
of airplanes directed by radio, power
full automobiles and many fast ves-
sells by bootIeggers, all tend to make
the enforcement of prohibition
world problem, said Ernest H. Cher
ringt0n of Westerville, Ohio, general
secretary of the World League
Against Alcoholism. in an address to-
night at the thirtieth international
Christian Endeavor Convention. He
urged the Christian Endeavorers to
become more active in the worldwide
prohibition movement.
1.-The liquor problem Is a world
problem he asserted. 1.-The Eigh-
teenth amendment received the
strongest official sanction ever given
a constitutional provision, yet never
before has there been arrayed against
any such a powerful and aggressive
national prohibition. That minority,
moreover. is being supported and re-
inforced not merely by state and ma
tional liquor organizations but also
by a gigantic, wealthy, politically in
fiuential international liquor traffic.
knowledge of the truth will even
tually make beverage alcohol an i'm
possibility in modern civilization, be-
cause 1t Is at variance with the in
eXorable economic law of the new
age.
1.-THE moral and religious forces OF
America must take the gospel Of pro-
hibition to the rest of the world. in
order to make permanent American
prohibition at home"

clear anu a cool breeze blew.

work table while Mrs. Fred Merrill
presided over the apron table. The

No Vitamin Caught
Saws Osteopathic M. ID. :.

Toronto, Ont, July (AP)-While
scientists often have thought they
had their fingers on a vitamin, there
is not known to be single vitamin
in captivity" DIR. w. G.. Dawes of
Bozeman, Mont, told the American
Osteopathic Association at it's con-
vention today.
DR.. Dawes argued for the use OF
uncooked foods, pointing out what
he regarded as disadvantages grow
ing out of modern methods of food
preparation.
DIR. w. Curtis Brigham Of Los
Angeles said osteopathic teaching
has affected, to some extent, the cur
riculum of every medical teaching
institution in the world. In an adj
dress before the section discussing
diseases of children, DR.. Earl j.
Drinkall declared that food manu-
featuring processes of today are at
the root of most of the ills of child
hood.

We're Drs. Ira w. Drew of Waltham,
Mass, E. Tracy Parker of Portland,

Waterville Playground
In Full Swing

The three Fairgrounds for children
in Waterville have now swung into
their full programs of summer ac-
tivity and, if the attendance of the
first two days be taken as a sign, this
will be the busiest season at the
grounds since they were started by
the Waterville Community Service a
number of years ago. All of the new
apparatus that was ordered this year
has arrived and is installed, and the
many youngsters are putting it TO
strenuous use.
At the Community Fairgrounds the
new apparatus represents an expend-
iaure of 5000 and it includes teeters,
two 16-foot curved chutes. extensive
framework. numerous rope swings and
two lawn swings. There is also COM
plete equipment for indoor baseball.
which is demanding the attention of
many of the boys. The equipment at
the other two Fairgrounds Is practi-
cally the same as at the Community
grounds except for the fact that at
the Lockwood grounds there is a giant
stride.
Summer programs went into effect
yesterday and rules concerning swum-
ming are to be strictly enforced.
There will be only two hours a day
when the swimming will be under SUI
pervision, the boys hour being from
100 o'clock to 2.30, and the girls
hour from $50 to $50. Boys may go
in at any other time but there will be
no supervision and they will do SO
at their own risk. At all the GROUNDS
there. are lighthouses for both the
boys and girls.
The small stores, al innovation this
year, are doing rushing business In
cool drinks and ice cream. Gro"n-up
visitors have already been numerous.

Pair of Strangers
Hold Up Bath Man

Brunswick, July 9-B. w. Mad
docks of Bath, formerly cook at the
old Tontine Hotel and later at the
Delta Epsilon Chapter house at Bow
dom College was the victim of a hold
up about midnight last night. Mr..
Maddocks who Is about 20 years of
age was in the Maine Central Station
waiting for the Pullman train. Two
strangers engaged him in CONVERSE
ton and later one of them suggested
That they take a walk. They walked
up the tracks way and then turned
into the woods from which point the
man who had been very kind to Mr..
Maddocks on the walk, assisting MN
over rough places and talking in an
entertaining manner, told him that a
path led back to the station.
As soon as they entered the UNDER
brush the stranger turned on his aged
companion and felled him with a
blow. telling him that he would be
killed If he screamed. In spite of
that fact Maddocks screamed, but
was promptly gagged. The stranger
then rifed his pockets and even re-
moved his shoes to see If money was
hidden therein.
Some time later Varney Charron a
well-known local ball player was
stopped by Mr.. Maddocks near the
corner of Pleasant and Spring
streets. Charron was rather nervous
On account of the appearance of the
man and hurried to the home of Chief
of Police William B. Edwards and
notified him of the mans condition.
1t was OF until this morning that Mr..
Maddocks was able to tell who he
was or give connected story of the
assault and robbery. He thinks that
he would be able to recognize either
of the two men with whom he talked,
