PARCO NEWS
i. s. SAFETY
CLASSES WELL
ECEIVED--PARC

The Safety classes being conducted
in Parco under the supervision of
Marshall and Murray of the u. S.
Bureau of Mines have received I'M
usually enthusiastic reception. The
classes up to the present time have
been attended by approximately two
thirds Of the refinery employees and
all have been exceptionally well
pleased with the way in which these
two men have conducted the lee
lures. The first series of classes is
now over and the second and third
are well under way. There are three
classes a day now on account of the
fact that Marshall and Murray have
received orders to move the first part
of the coming week, shortening theiI
stay by one week. Glasses are now
to- $50 and from 700 to $3.50
These hours are ones during which
YER man working in the plant cal
attend and yet with very few ex'
Ceptions will not interfere with any
other activities.
The way in which the lectures
have been given and are organized
is particularly good and the hours
spent in the gym going through thi!
work are of the most interesting ma
sure. One little realizes the grea'
amount of good that can be lone by
an individual not versed in the med
ical profession in case of accident
and were everyone to take this mat
ter of First Aid up to only a Sigh
extent many of the accidents now
fatal through lack of immediate at
tention could be avoided.

CRAWLING AND
GRADING OF STREETS

The grading and graveling of the
Parco streets is still in progress.
They are all being surfaced with
Sherman Hill gravel and are fast
developing into some of the best
streets possible without actually paw
ing them. The last rains aided n
great deal in the settling OF the gravel
and the use of the ten ton steam
roller acquired by the city some time
back has gone a long way toward
smoothing out the few bumps that
existed.

tion of the Joint Board funds for the
above bridges as determined by the
estimates is $122SS1 90, which is ap-
proXimately 81, 10000 less than the
portion of the $342 100000 of bond
money allotted by the Governor and
Cohncil at it's meeting of April %
for bridge construction work. This
small difference is of no account as
it can at this time be considered an
emergency fund which can later on
he absorbed in the construction of a
small bridge, if no emergency de-
mand for its use arises.
In the foregoing list only two pro-
jects require special explanation.
You will recall that in order to re-
lease the quarried stones in the Oy-
ster River Bridge piers for use in
Wadsworth Street Bridge, it becomes
necessary to construct these two
bridges at the same time. In the in
terest of economy this seems a very
desirable arrangement. Due to the
rotted condition of the timber grill
ldge supporting the piers of the Oy-
ster River structure, the piers are
leaning badly and one of the abut-
ments is badly buiged and likely TO
collapse at any time.
Hearings on about one-half of the
bridges included in the above list
have been held, and hearings on the
balance will be arranged as speedily
as possible with Il view of getting
these bridges built at the earliest
possible date"

Two Maine Artists
To Appear in
Musical. Program

The appearance of Mario Chamlee,
tenor Of the Metropolitan Opera
Company. and Leon Rothier, leading
bass of the same company, at the
concert of the Lewiston Orpheon
Choral society m the Lewiston ar
mory next Tridty evening will bring
to Maine two artists whose attain
ments on the operatic and concert
stages give to them well-merited
distinction.
The organization which is respon-
sible for the appearance of Ciiamlee
and Rothier in Maine, was started
about 10 years ago, and it has in
past years brought many star per-
formers to the state. Usually the
Choral society has been satisfied to
have single assisting artist and the
plan to have two this year is an in
novation that has attracted consid-
cradle comment
Chamlee is native American
whose rapid rise in the world of mu-
sic has been quite phenominal. Last
year his alma mater, the University
of Southern California, conferred
upon him the degree of master of
music and this honor has been called
simply recognition of a position
anu du dCHlcNeIlleilC Ill Ino fealfn OF
music which all who have heard
Chamlee had already accorded him."
The artist Is considered a worthy
successor to Caruso and one Cali
fornia critic said, with Chamlee's
first song, an aria from Puccini's
LaBoheme, "Che Gelida Mamma,
members of tho audience were start
led into the recognition that they
were indeed hearing worthy sue
cessor to Caruso. One could not
help but recognize the same golden
timbre in Chamlee's voice that made
Caruso the famous tenor of his age.
Like Caruso. ChaE11ee's voice COM

say nothing of it's power or the
singers perfect control or fine re-

Leon Rothier is native of France
am, he has been in America for the
last ten years. The exquisite beauty
of his voice soon attracted the musi-
cal leaders of the country and for
tn last few years he has been a
lading parsonage of the Metropolitan
Opera Co.
Large delegations are planning to
attend the concert both from Water
vile and Augusta. In Waterville
tickets may be procured at the

CARL SANDRURG
B;}WD0lN SPEAKER
WINS FAVOR OF ALL
(special TO Kennebec Journap

Especial to lAenHeDec Joui hAi(
Brunswick, May S-Prof. Charles
p. Burnett in introducing Carl Sand
burg as the lecturer at the Institute
of Modern Literature at Bowdoin
tonight, spoke of him as an operator
on cramped minds. Mr.. Sandburg,
who is the author of Chicago poems.
Corn Huskers" and "Slabs of the
Sunburned West" said that he was
an admirer of Longfellow from the
days when he was on picket duty at
Porto Rico in 1898 and as he tramp
ed his post between 2 and in the
morning he used to repeat Longfel-
low poems.
His lecture was full of stories
which he used to illustrate in TOPICS
which was romanticism and realism
in modern poetry. He said that the
nerson who could believe that the
man who put his hand into his
wifes workbasket and took out a
handful of silk threads, squeezed
them, opened his hand. and the
room was full of butterflies, was an
honest to God romantist.
He said that writer. painter. or
musician was very much like pitch
er on a baseball team. The pitcher
NAV have all the technique he ever
had but he may lack smoke: that in
the same way writers, painters and
musicians get to the point where
they know they have the technique
but pray to God for smoke to put
their production across.
Speaking of children's stories. he
said that at any first rate child
stories is one that the little ones and
grown-ups can enjoy together. He
read many of his poems and IN
closing produced guitar and sang
numerous ballads.
In appearance. Mr.. Sandburg is one
of the most unique characters that
has yet appeared at the Bowdoin
Institute. His hair. which is turned
gray, is long and wavy; whereas all
the other speakers Wore evening
clothes. Mr.. Sandburg appeared in
an ordinary business suit. put his
hands in his pockets most of tile
time
He spoke with slight lisp which
became musical after his audience
became accustomed to it. He was
especially effective during his rem
dering of the ballad He proved Il
most interesting story teller and
produced more laughs than any other
lecturer who has been here this week.
The audience tonight contained an
unusually large number of people
from Lewiston, it being necessary to
run special electric car to that city
to accommodate the people who
came from that way.
