State Field Day
ID. A. r. at Or0nO-
DAYS Program

All members Of the Daughters of
the American Revolution throughout
the state are most cordially invited
by the Esther Eayres Chapter, D. A.
R., to attend the Field Day to be held
at Oono and Old Town, June 18th.
Mrs. Blaine s. Viles, the State Re-
gent, has already sent announcements
Of the invitation to all the Chapters
in the State.
Guests will be met at the waiting
room of the University of Maine at
$3.50 A. NJ, Thursday and shown the
Campus and buildings of 'Old
Maine." It is expected that Presi-

meet the visiting Daughters. At 10: 45
the party will leave by trolley for Old
Tcwn, where a brief business session
will be held. and dinner served at the
special price Of $1.00 per plate. After
this the Daughters will cross to In
dian Island, the reservation Of the
Penobscot Tribe of Indians, and at
one o'clock the Indian children of the
Indian School will give an entertain
ment.
Besides being an ideal location, It
would seem that this is most fitting
place for a society like the Daugh-
ters of the American Revolution to
hold a Field Day, as the members of
the Penobscot Tribe during the Rev.
olution fought side by side with the
colonists to gain Americas Independ-
ence.
Members will find excellent train
service to Bangor from all the prin-

BETHEL 1t. & PR. co.
SELLS TO c. N. P, co,
CONSTRUCTING Line

Central Maine Power Company
has agreed to purchase the Bethel
Light & Power Company, officials of
the former company announced on
Thursday. The merger will be con-
summated July ]. with the retire.
ment of the stock and absorption of
property Of the Bethel Company.
Construction of an 1900 volt line
over the Is and half mile stretch
of Oxford county hills from West
Paris to Bethel to connect with the
Bethel company lines is already
started. The new line will extend
through Bryant's Pond, Lockes
Mills and Walkers Mills; many res
idents in the latter two places hav-
ing arranged for lighting service.
Bryant's Pond has power system
of its own.
The construction Of the new line
Is to be pushed forward rapidly so
that the new service will be avail
able early in July. The present
source of power in Bethel, from a
generator III a local woodworking
establishment, will be superseded by
the dependable service from Central
Maine Power Company's intercon-
nected system. Central Oxford coun-
ty homes and industries are to be
thereby insured an unlimited source

Bay State MOt0rist
At Busy Intersection
Gets Into Trouble

An apparently inexperienced driv-
er without an operators license came
to grief at the corner of Bridge and
Water streets early last evening. and
as a result, Thomas H. Doyle OF
Roxbury, Mass, was taken to the DO
lice station by Officer Bert Bowker
Doyle, driving Ford car of Massa-
.chusetts registration. was coming
from the north end of Water street
and in turning to go across the
bridge he ''cut the corner" going on
the left hand side of the traffic sig
nal beacon.
Officer Leon Felker, who was on
the corner halted Doyle and he
backed up and attempted to go
around to the right of the spindle.
When he made the corner he did not
turn shabby enough and ran into
the iron electric light pole in front
of the Freeman jewelry store. The
driver was not injured but the front
of his car was crushed.
When asked to produce his license
he was unable to do so and he was
taken over to the station by Officer
Bowker.
But short time afterward, Paul
Martin of this city drove past a stop
signal at the same corner and he,
too, had no license with him, al
though he declared that he had one
at home. No complaint is expected
to be lodged against him II he proves
that he had a license.

GARDINER AND
CONY FIGHT FOR
HONORS TODAY

Rivalry even more intense than
usual is expected to develop at
Quimby field in Gardiner today when
the Gardiner High baseball team and
the Cony High nine clash In the
first of two games, which will wind
up the Kennebec Valley league. The
fact that they are league games and
that upon their outcome depends the
final standing of the league added to
the fact that Cony and Gardiner are
always intense in their friendly
rivalry should produce plenty Of ex-
citement in the down river city.
Although Hallowell can not be
pushed from first place in the
league, Cony High by winning both
games from Gardiner can still tie
with Hallowell for the position at
the top of the ladder. Gardiner by
winning from Cony in both contests
can do likewise, SO that both teams
are ambitious to win both games.
If they split the two games they Will
be tied for second place.
With this possibility of tieing with
the league leaders before them, the
members of both teams will put up
a hard scrap when they clash at 2.SO
this afternoon. Gardiner will prob
ably depend upon RED" Davidson.

about equal strength in the fielding
end of the game but are about
equally divided in hitting between

EXPERIMENTS WITH Low TEMPERATURE
INTERESTING TO MEMBERS OF ROTARY CLUB

ter and head Of the science depart
nent of Cony high school, held the
rapt attention and interest of the
members of the Rotary Club and
their guests at the regular luncheon
session of the club, held at the Au-
gusta House. Friday evening
Prof. Lyseth performed a number
OF experiments and worked out sew
eral chemical formulas, which
though simple to the chemist, were
revelations to his audience, and the
accompanying talk made the enter
tainment feature of last evening one
Of the most unique which the club
has enjoyed for some time.
In introducing the speaker Of the
evening, President Everett v. Per-
kins paid a splendid tribute to Mr..
and thorough gentleman. The an
nounced subject of the lecture of last
evening was Mysteries of Chemis-
try, or an Exposition of the Zero
Ray" Prof. Lyseth assured his hear
ers that there was nothing really
mysterious about the apparatus when
the accepted chemical process was
understood, and proceeded to demon
strate through employment of the in
ductive method, several experiments
with low temperature.
The first simple experiment with
the carbon dioxide gas proved that
flame was instantly extinguished
when subjected to the gas pressure,
which demonstrated it's use in chem
ical fire extinguishers Reducing a
quantity of the gas to its solid form,
Prof. Lyseth next introduced ether,
which changed the white crystals to
liquid. In this frigid liquid several
articles of food and the carnation
were introduced with the result that
they were frozen solid.
The final demonstration was In
freezing mercury at 40 degrees below
zero, and when the chemical process
had been accomplished the chemist
drove a nail with the solid mercury.
Prof. Lyseth declared that chem
istry was to his belief one OF the
most interesting of sciences. Chem
istry teaches that every action has
its consequences, and that some
times the reactions may not mani
fest themselves in the present time
or even in this life, and in that un-
derstanding chemical experimenters
proceed cautiously in their handling
of their apparatus and materials.
An interesting announcement was
made at the session last evening by
Harris S. Woodman, chairman OF the
Boys Work committee, to the erect
that the $500 appropriation by the
club to send deserving Augusta boys
to the State Y. M. C. A. camp at
Lake Cobbosseecontee. would be
used to even greater effectiveness
than during the past two years. MT.
Woodman informed the club that the
effort this summer would be to have
the boys selected for attendance at
the camp, earn one week Of thssr va
cation and the club would sponsor
the second week. In this manner 1t
will be possible for the Rotary club
to enable about three score boys to
enjoy the advantages OF the Dig
training center.
Charles F. Flynt, chairman OF the
publicity committee reported that
the four Rotary welcome sign boards
would probably be placed on the
main trunk highways leading into
Augusta. during the coming week.

Activities of the Russian Section, w. P.

The activities of the Russian sec
ton Workers Party since its conven-
ton which was held in the middle of
February, have been redoubled. The
daily paper, Novy Mir, is becoming
popular with the masses. 1t is now
being read by people who did not care
to read it before. The new editorial
board is doing its share to make it a
real live newspaper for the masses,
but the labor correspondents in the
different parts of the country are
mainly responsible for the growth of
the circulation. There isn't any i'm
portant happening in the shops, mines
or factories of the country which does
not find it's reflection and explanation
in the pages of the Novy Mir.
In Chicago there is group of cor
respondents Of about 1917 comrades,
all of them workers in the shops and
factories. Chicago has a special sec
ton in the Novy Mir which is printed
two or three times a week. There is
a correspondent in the Pullman car
shops who is closely watching the
wage cuts and other attacks against
labor in Pullman. There is a group
of correspondents in the steel mills of
Gary, Ind, another in Kenosha, etc.
The more news there is printed from
the different towns the bigger grows
the circulation.
The new central executive bureau
