One Of these institution heads who
originally was not in favor OF pro-
hibition-President J. D. Eggleston
of Hampden- Sidney College, Vir-
ginia-declares that he has seen its
good results and this has led him to
hope that this experiment" will
succeed. The statement Of Profess
sor, Carver of Harvard that pro-
hibition is "the greatest experiment
in modern times" is endorsed by
several presidents. The replies In
dicate their general belief that
there will be no turning back from
this experiment" and that good
progress has been made in the five
years of the prohibition regime.
The sentiments of these promi-
nent educators will be echoed by a
majority of voters, who looking
upon prohibition as an expert
ment," will make due allowance for
any failure of the law to properly
function. While few believe that
the day Of "the covered bridge" is
near at hand, 1t will be quite
generally admitted that considerable
progress has been made even in
states which were most subject to

The local chapter of the Maine
Beautiful Association are now en-
deavoring to have a big clean up
campaign, and this can only be done
when every person living within the
borders of Dexter will put their
shoulder to the wheel and clean up
their own yard and general property.
The committee are anxious that
every one clean up the ditch in
front of their home and make the
back yard as clean as the front for
nearly always the back yard can be
seen by others at their homes or by
passersby on the next street. This
work is being carried on in every
city and town in Maine and certain

regard to advertising signs along the
road, all those who wish to save
their signs are urged to do so at
once as they will be taken down in
the next few days as a result of the
anti-bill board law passed at the last
session of the Legislature and in ef-
feet this month.

Boston's Earthquake Hazard
(Sp,.;pofioId Pap,lhlic9nl

The Engineering Economics
foundation, one of our numerous
privately supported research bu-
reaus, has been engaged in study
of earthquake hazards in various
parts of the United States and
Canada. For the past year it has
been concentrating on the Atlantic
strip of the continent. Its findings
as made public by the foundations
president, DIR. Hollis Godfrey, are
not reassuring to easterners. The
East, we are told, cannot regard it
self as free from earthquake hazard
any more than the West.
Quivers or tremors may visit the
West more frequently and. on the
whole, more disastrously. But
there is no immunity for us. A mo
81 earthquake-"No S" standing
fairly high in violence, against a
maximum of No 10"-invaded Bos-
ton in 1855. If the destruction it
wrought in such a small colonial
town was of minor consequence, that
is no measure of the damage an
other mo 5" might do in the Boston
of today. The Santa Barbara earth
quake, it appears, was rated as a
NO 81 except at it's center, where
it deserved and got a higher rating.
In 1855 Boston lost about 1900 brick
chimneys and had some buildings
cracked or partly wrecked. But the
damage that a similar disturbance
might do in the present crowded city
would probably correspond to the
havoc OF Il modern 10 inch howitzer
in comparison with the cannon used
at Bunker hill.
There is the more reason to fear
widespread damage from the fact
that so large an area of downtown
Boston is made land. Apart from
the earthquake of 1855 there have
been about 250 shocks in New Eng
land or the adjacent Canadian re-
gion in the last 800 years. This is
not specially alarming, but as &
dozen of these shocks have occurred
within the past year, the plot may
be thickening.
These earthquake reflections are
not put forward by the Engineering
Economics foundation merely to
jar our practical or moral self-com
placency. In the words of a famous
physician. There is hope" The
Engineering Economics foundation
would belle its name If it failed to
point out the remedy. That remedy,
in a word, is better construction and
deeper foundations. Only one mar
row neck of solid land attaches the
peninsula of Boston to the main
land; that neck has been widened
just as the peninsula itself has been
pushed out into the water on all its
shores.
In the alarming picture of the
possible cutting off of Boston by the
breaking of gas mains and water
pipes and the wrecking of bridge
foundations, leaving the city prey
TO fire in case relatively few build
ings were shaken down, there is
seeming probability. But as the dis
aster may never come, we can agree
not to worry, though we may dc
well to store the admonitions in the
back of our minds for such future
reference as may be deemed prac-
teal in connection with construc-
tion plans or living in the Hub.

Editorial Comment
Bryan's Estate

bryan GStdto
(New York World)
The wealth of William Jennings
Bryan was matter of much specu-
lation until last April, when he him :
self, in response to questions, issued
a statement from which it was IN
ferred he possessed personal, ana
real property in excess of S50000o.
The statement was intended TO
correct the rumor that he had MADE
more than s1,Oo0.00O in his lifetime,
Mr.. Bryan said:-
II am not a millionaire; I am far
from it and never shall be, but ]
have been fortunate in the matter of
finances. There never was year
since my first nomination in which
l could not have made million had
l taken the side Of privilege and
favoritism. I preferred to make
money more slowly by lecturing and
have accumulated all 1 need.

have made in Miami real estate
have so increased my savings that
now have the promise of an income

ditions of living as the income from
my earnings Gin lecturing) alone
would have met old conditions.
Il have sold nearly all my
property. including my first home
here Gin Tampa), Villa Serena, eX-
cept the new and less valuable home
into which we moved last fall
When the remainder of my property
is turned into interest bearing
securities, 1 can reasonably expect
to have, for the first time in my life
an income sufficient for the needs OF
Mrs. Bryan and myself, even when
1 am unable to add to that income
by literary work.
when we moved from Nebraska
we gave our house, valued by us al
$4,000 and by those who received
it at more than $4,000, to the
Methodist church for hospital
The value of that gift alone was

Well, sir. Dear Uncle Lucky on

that sly old robber who is always
bothering little rabbits and chickens.
"Ha, ha, l fooled you this time he
snarled as he slowly Crept toward the
two little bunnies and Daddy Long

"Get out your pop-gun," whispered
the old gentleman rabbit, in the pun
ny boys ear. Quick"
But, Oh, dear me. It's no easy mat

when a fox is coming toward one. NO
indeedy. The little rabbits paw
trembled so he could scarcely undo
the buckles, and before he could get
out his pop gun Danny Fox was grin
ming at them over the windshield.
Here's a lollypop," gasped the
bunny boy, pulling one from MS
pocket: Does Bushytail like candy Z!
HE certainly does" answered Dan
nv Fox. $50 does Slyboots."
Here's one for him, too" and the
frightened little rabbit dropped an
other lollypop into the old Foxs out
stretched paw.
well, the boys will be happy when
I get home" grinned Danny Fox. AS
for Mrs. Fox, she'll be happy, TOO

thought poor Uncle Lucky.

Danny Fox, slipping an empty gunny
sack off his right shoulder. BE nice
and quiet while 1 slip you in," and
he smiled another horrible grin.
Just then something hit MIN
souarely on the end Of his nose
Crackerino. 1t was one of Daddy
Longlegs shoes. The next minute
another shoe hit the old fox on his
right ear. and then a third shoe on
the left, and before he could dodge. a
fourth shoe hit his right eye. "Ha,
hal" chuckled Daddy Longlegs. and
quicker than I can tell it. that brave
old insect threw four more shoes all
at once, knocking the old fox head
over heels.
"Nows my chance" thought wise
Uncle Lucky, and away he went In
