 More Freight Received
 A gain of about eight per cent was
  reported for the year in cargoes of general merchandise receivd. Tn 1924 13,759 tons of general merchandise were received through the port while this year MT. Reed reports 15,O23 tons Thre was a big increase in incoming fuel shipments. Last year domestic coal shipments received aggregated 1911 tons as compared to 1896 tons this year. In addition foreign coal i'm ports this year totaled 1264 tons as against 200 in 1920. Lumber ship ments received this year were 1,O10,- board feet as compared to 969,516 last year. Eight head of livestock were received, 133 less than last year.

Seven hundred and forty three tons of gen. eral merchandise were sent out as compared with 573 last year The to- tai shipments of reindeer meat was 548,S82 pounds. MT. Reed reports 76 live reindeer were shipped to the States this year.

prompt results it beats anything else
Won ever tried. Usually stops the
ordinary cough or chest cold in "a
hours. Tastes pleasant too-children
like it-and it is pure and good.
Pour p. ounces of Pinex in q
pint bottle; then fill it up with plain
granulated sugar syrup. Or use clari-
fed molasses, honey, or corn syrup,
instead Of sugar syrup, if desired.
Thus you make a full pint-a family
supply-but costing no more than
small bottle of ready-made cough
syrup.

any price. 1t goes, right to the spot
and gives quick, lasting relief. 1t

DR.. Thomas Tells
Development of
Proper System of
Rural Education

Commissioner Augustus o. Thomas
Of the Maine department of educa-
ton in a statement issued Monday
on the subject, Our Schools" de-
clared that the most difficult problem
is the development of proper sys-
tenn Of rural education.
in order to do this" he continued,
three things are necessary: (a)
The rural schools should have the
best trained teachers in the system.
In order to secure this, they must be
the best paid. This is a problem with
q capital letter. CD There must be a
program of reasonable Capitalization
or consolidation. Long distances are
not feasible or desirable in Maine.
The building of large consolidated
schools is hardly possible or profit
able In our state but wherever small
inefficient schools may be brought
together on reasonable transporta-
ton routes. as the highways are i'm
proved, this type of school will add
materially to the many desirable fea-
lures of rural education. 1t will, be
necessary to maintain many of the
small outlying single teacher schools
for many generations to come. Where
this is necessary, these schools must
be made the very best of their type
Co In all cases where children are
handicapped by distance, suitable
means of transportation must be
supplied with scheduled routes and
bonded drivers who have the same
control over the children to and from
school as the teacher has at school.
Such means would be a moral, as
well as a physical safeguard. The
highways at present are unsafe for
the children and transportation IS
becoming necessary where children
are required to travel our Maine

respondents agreed to allow the lady

the courtesy Of the correspondents
that it is so used when the legisla-

Gov. Baxter Asks
Probe of Report
VivisectiOn in High
School,, AndrOscOggin

Governor Baxter has received a
letter from a responsible citizen in
Androscoggin county stating that live
animals are being vivisected in a
High school in that county, and that
the State law preventing vivisection
or experimentation upon living ami
mails IS being violated.
Governor Baxter mmediately
called this to the attention of State
Commissioner of Education, DIR.
Thomas, and to the County Attorney,
Mr.. Berman, of Androscoggin county.
Governor Baxter said: Il have re-
ceived letter which disturbs me for
1t says that under the abused name
Of Science the teacher in a certain
High school in Androscoggin county
has not only made a practice of hav-
ing frogs brought to the school and
killed and then experimental upon,
but has had lizards and snakes
brought into the school room, placed
alive in alcohol where they slowly
suffered and died in the presence of
the scholars. The letter says the
scholars giggled and snickered for
awhile but nothing was done to put
the creatures out of their sufferings.
Angle worms have been brought in
alive and cut open lengthwise with
their sides pinned back, and the
teacher already has called for a cat
to be brought alive to be killed,
skinned and examined The next
thing planned for is for a rabbit to be
brought in, and guinea pigs are to be
raised and experimental upon.
Apart from the propriety of such
things being done in recognized med
tcal schools there is no excuse for
their being done in any OF the high
schools of this state. Public senti-
ment will not countenance it. If
young people are taught to witness
the sufferings Of living creatures
they soon become cruel and hardened
and as time goes on they become
more and more So
THE terrible murder case of Loeb
and Leopold no doubt began in Just
such way. by experimenting on
small creatures in the school room, |
hope the people all over the state will
make careful examination of their
high schools and see that such cruel
and debasing practices are stopped,
Any teacher who countenances such
q thing should lose her license and
be prosecuted under the law. It ia
shocking that these things could be
done in Maine, and I have brought 1t
