Vachon in heated argument and he
said that Vachon was calling Joe
King all sorts of names. Both Va
chon and the older King had their
fists up as though about to fight and,
according to the witness, Vachon
made the statement that he could

fall on his hands and knees. King
admitted that he fell on top of Va
chon and that he struck him twice
while down. He denied that he had
ever conspired with his father to do
Vachon harm and that he knew of
an argument that Vachon and the
defendants father had had previous
ly that day. The witness could not

police that he had done good job
tor his first fight. King said that he
had never before been in fight or
appeared in court.

tried to start fight with him and
his companion, Eddie Cote, on Water

George Noel and Gilbert Bourgoin
who were with Joe King in the eve-
ming. said that Vachon opened the

the fight, That's all right you
licked me drunk
Joe King, father Of the defendant
was the last witness of the Long

was willing to fight Vachon at any
time but now that he was getting old
he did not feel himself, a match for
the younger man. He said that he
told Vachon he did not want to fight
and that he urged the plaintiff to let
him alone.

associations throughout New Eng

boys in their Instruction in camp
craft. woodcraft and nature study at
the Leaders Conference which is to
be held at Lake Cobbosseecontee

also give instructions in other
branches of study If it is possible
and his presence at the conference
will be of distinct advantage to the
many who are present. "Hi-Y and
Lovely" may we'll be the motto of
the boys of Maine at the conference
because OF Mr.. Wells presence.
The Hi-Y movement has been ac-
cepted and is being developed by
the most progressive and largest
New England schools for youths,
such as the Public Latin, English,
Dorchester, Springfield and Brook
line in Massachusetts and Portland,
Auburn, Augusta and Bangor High
schools in Maine. The movement
promises to be one of the most popu-
lar, as we'll as one of the most eff
ficient character building organiza-
tons affiliated with public school
work.
Marcus B. Wells Is particularly
vel! fitted to be enc of the faculty
of the Pine Tree States great con-
ference of. thos who hope, some day.
to be leaders of their fellows in this
development of character. Before
he went to Bangor to become social
secretary of the citys Y. NJ. c. A.
he had years of active work along
these lines through which he might
find the key to the. heart of the boy
and through which became well
qualified to advise tie young CrlSt-
ian wat hthe most effective path in
service he might choose to result
in the greatest good for his fellow
boys and ultimately, make place
in the world peculiarly his own in
this work of character building for
Young America.
Mr.. Wells is college man, hav-
ing graduated, following the compile
ton of his high school training in
White Plains, N. Y, from SPRING
field college in 1922. He has had
enc year of special study at Massa-
chusetts Agricultural college.
As a campcrafter he has had ex-
ceptional opportunity, having served
eight years in Camp Dudley, the old
est organized camp for boys and fol-
lowing it with year in Culver
Woodcraft school and Culver Mill
tary Academy. Three years he
passed his summers in the White
Mountains camp at South Casco, this
State, and another year at Camp
Norwich, Huntington, Mass,
AS an instructor he has received
great experience from 1918 to 1929.
He was student secretary in Spring
field college, in 191S-19; assistant
boys secretary in the Springfield Y.
M. c. A. for the following year;
high school secretary with immed-
late charge of HI-Y clubs in Spring
field. Mass, in 1922 and since that
time assistant Y. M. C. A. secretary
in Bangor.
He brings to the work, finally,
deep and abiding love for boys and
conservation to the cause of char
acter building for boys and younger
men that distinguishes everything
that he undertakes and permeates
all his plans in all activities, whether
directly under Y or civic auspices.

slightly hair from face. arms and
legs as easily and permanently as the
most expert beauty specialist.
For Karma's marvellous ingredients,
applied almost as easily as cold
cream, penetrate directly to the hair
roots. speedily loosen them. and
gently lift them out-leaving the skin
clean, smooth and even lovelier than
before. No fuss, no bother, no grow
ing back of hair stronger than ever
