u. of NJ. Carnival
Delightful Affair

Especial to the Kennebec JournaD
Z. Of NJ. Feb. 2o-University of
Names fourth annual winter carni-
val, or first annual "winter-less" car
nival. ended last night when all fra
ternities held open house and the car
nival crowd ended week end which
was one full Of pleasure in spite of
the lack of snow.
The carnival opened Thursday
night with a presentation of THE
Whole Towns Talking" a farce in
three acts. 1t was generally agreed
that this was the best play seen here
for a number of years. The part OF
Henry Simmons, the well-meaning
but bungling manufacturer Of paints
and oils who attempts to arrange his
daughters love affairs, was played to
perfection by Chester Fat" Camp
bell, who seemed to be made for his
role. He shared the major honors
with c. Phillip Gonyar of Bangor,
who was seen as the bashful but
ambitious swain. The Misses Serena
Wood and Sadie Campbell were very
pleasing in the leading feminine
parts. AS an amateur production.
the play was a wonder. and it's spon-
sors are to be congratulated.
The play was followed by an in
formal dance in the gym.
Friday afternoon. the scene of &C
ton was of necessity taken indoors.
The Strand theatre in Orono furnish
ed the entertainment with vaudeville,
music and the presentation Of Bar
rie's peter Pan"
Friday evening the carnival reached
it's climax with the grand carnival
ball in the gymnasium. The hall was
beautifully decorated, individually
decorated fraternity booths adding to
the attraction. Hardy's Tivoli or
ed the music, and dancing was in or
der from till .. Over two hundred
couples attended. and the hall was
well filled.
All intercollegiate events planned
for Saturday We're cancelled and the
only official attraction for the day
was basketball game in the after
noon. in which the Maine freshmen
team easily defeated the Higgins
Classical institute team, 46-12.'
From till IL all fraternity houses
We're as one. and the couples wander
ed from house to house. enjoying the
music and dancing to the fullest ex-
tent.
The Intramural Athletic Associa-
ton, sponsors Of the carnival. are to
be congratulated on the success of
the whole affair. Handicapped by the
by the almost total absence Of snow
the committees in charge were forced
to make many hurried changes in
their original plans, but in spite of
this. 1T was agreed by all who were
on the campus the past week end
that the "winter-less carnival was
the best ever.

Causes of Loss
Of School Property
In Maine by Fire

Hon. Wilbur D. Spencer, state in
surance commissioner, in state
ment Monday, said that it has been
a subject of inquiry in the last two
months what the causes CT loss may
be in the case Of school property
fires in Maine.
More property Of this class was
destroyed in January and February
of this year than in the whole year
of 1924" continued Mr.. Spencer.
1T is possible that, like losses in
the State Of Vermont in 1924, these
periods will occur when such casual
ties are abnormal. 1t appears to
the state insurance department,
however, that this is time when
local school authorities should give
the subject Of fire prevention unus-
ual attention.
1.-THE cost Of Replacement in all
cases will be found to be heavy. One
experience Of the kind in a town
may be enough to create desire for
greater inspection and moro careful
supervision.
1.-THE chief internal causes of
schoolhouse fires in 1923 were the
defective chimney, smoking and
spontaneous combustion.
"The school house fires that have
already occurred during the present

Virginia State
Having Difficulty
Dogs Running Sheep

It appears that other states are
having more or less difficulty with the
dog situation as well as Maine. The
current bulletin of the Department of
Inland Fish and Game of Virginia de-
votes two entire pages to the subject,
one page shows the narrowing scene
of so sheep killed by two dogs, 3S of
them, so it is stated, were ewes with
lamb. Only four of the flock escaped
and these were partly mangled. 1t is
enough to make ones blood run cold.
The commissioners, in connection
with the cut, makes the following
statement:
1.-THE unrestricted dog is the cause
Of the decrease in the supplies Of
meat for food and wool for clothing,
and a cause for the increase in the
cost Of living. The unrestricted dog
is therefore a direct tax on every citi-
zen, and Is a destructive economic
parasite.
sheep are an asset to the COM
munity, adding to its wealth, and
thus increasing it's volume of trade.
1.-The unrestricted dog has absolute
ly no value, but is, in fact, a liability
and menace.
"Whoever allows his dog to run at
large, especially at night. fails in his
duty to his neighbor and the COM
munity."
He also quotes the United States
Department of Agriculture in a re-
cent bulletin, as follows:
"Sheep-killing dogs are not only
recognized as the worst enemy OF
eastern flockmasters at the present
time, but are known to be the prin-
cipal cause of so marked a decrease
in the numbers Of sheep kept on
farms. The moral effect upon all per-
sons who have seen sheep killed, in
jured or frightened by dogs is far
more destructive to the industry than
the actual damage sustained"

CLEAR DEFINITION
OF TRUE LIMERICK
FOR K, ], CONTESTANTS

Despite attempts of the Journal to
prevent any misunderstanding on the
part of contestants in the Journals
$3.50 Cross Word Puzzle Contest as
to the correct form of limerick,
some contestants last week sent in
verses which were not in limerick
form. A special notice was publish
ed last Thursday calling attention to
these errors and again defining a
limerick as a five-line verse.
Since then several contestants have
written in questioning the Journals
authority for defining a limerick as
a five-line verse. For the informa-
ton of all contestants the Journal
wishes to state that it derives its
authority from the most reliable
sources it knows of. namely the full
edition of Webster's International
Dictionary. Funk &; Wagnalls New
Standard Dictionary of the Eng
lish Language. and the Concise OK
ford Dictionary. Webster's Diction-
airy defines q limerick thus:
"a nonsense poem Of five anapaes-
tic lines Of which lines l, 2 and are
of three feet. and rime and lines 8
and are of 2 feet and rime."
The New Standard Dictionary de-
fines it thus:
"a nonsense verse Of 5 anapestic
lines of which the first. second and
fifth lines are three stress and rime
and the third and fourth are two
stress and rime."
The Concise oxford Dictionary de-
fines a limerick as 5-line verse.
OF course any contestant can SUBJ
init verses in whatever form he pre-
fers but inasmuch as the journal
drew up the rules of it's contest and
designated five-line limerick,
verses Of other than five lines will
not be considered in awarding the
prizes.
However. with the four winning
limericks published Monday. toeeth-
er with the many limericks published
on this weeks puzzle page to examine
and refer to, contestants should have
no difficulty in writing limericks
which will be eligible to compete for
the prizes.

Warden Upton expresses the opin-

the snow there would be no more

endeavoring to get away from the
dogs, break through the crust and
often cut themselves thus giving a
blood scent for the dogs to follow.
The dogs can run on the crust with
out breaking through and therefore
have a big advantage in their race
