Publicity Committee

KEEP. Leland of Sangerville, men,
Der of the recently appointed COM
mittee in charge of the erection and
management of the State of Maine
building on the grounds Of the East
ern States Exposition at Springfield,
Mass. told the committee on Maine
Publicity Thursday afternoon that a
bill offered by him providing for the
nomination and appointment of the
committees successors by the Gov
ernor and Council, is nothing more
than a return to the usual method
of making appointments.
The bill provides that the agri-
cultural. industi ial and recreational
industries and activities of Maine
shall be recognized in the selection
of members of the committee and
that the commissions or agriculture
shall always be- the fifth member.
Under the terms of resolve pass
ed in 1923 appropriating money for
the building. the five members were
to be nominated by and from GER
tain specified organizations and then
to be appointed by the Governor.
Rep. Leland presented to the pub
licity committee an amendment to
his bill providing that all proposed
expenditures of money in connection
with the Springfield building except
those for travelling expenses, shall
be passed upon by the Governor and
council. He explained that the
amendment is designed to check

ACID STOMACH
IS DANGEROUS
o"nerefs From Indigestion or
stomach Trouble
CUT THIS OUT

stomach trouble dyspepsia, indirss-
ton sourness, gas. heartburn, food fer
mentation, etc, are caused nine times in
ten by chronic acid stomach" says a well
known authority.
Burning hydrochloric acid develops in
the stomach at an alarming rate The
acld lrrltates and inflames the delicate
stomach lining and often leads to gas
'rltls accompanied by dangerous stomach
ulcers. Don't dose an acid stomach with
pepsin or artificial digestents that only
give temporary relief from pain by driv-
ing the sour. fermenting food out of the
stomach into the intestines
Instead. neutrallze or sweeten your
acid stomach after meals with a little
hot water and Bisurated Magnesia and
not only viii the pain vanish but your
meals Will digest naturally. There is
nothing better than Bisurated Magnesa,
to swecten and settle an acid stomach. 1t
soaks up the harmful excess acid much
as n sponge or blotting paper might and
your stomach acts and feels fine in Just
q few minutes. Bisurated Magnesia can
be obtained from any reliable druggist in
either powder or tablet form. 1t Is safe,
reliable, easy and pleasant to use Is not
laxative and is not at all expensive

senior high school. asking the author
her Impressions of the Importance Of
good English. The letter reads as fol-
lows:
"Rtverbank Court, Cambride. Mass.
March End, 1925.
Ny dear Miss Donnelly:
l suppose that the importance of
using Good English lies in the fact
that, as language exists so that hu-
man creatures may exchange thoughts
with one another, the clearer and
more concise and more significant the
language is, the more truly the
thoughts will be conveyed. An APP
probation of this would lead people,
l fancy, to vast less time in talking,
because Good English implies brew
ity: and people who talk a great
deal do not convey their thoughts
with brevity! I have known people
who, when they could say a thing in
five words, say it (because they are
careless as to Good English) In ten
which is. of course, a great waste Of
time on their part, and quite boring
for the people who listen to them,
A person who uses too many words
Chat is to say, who doesn't use
Good Englishl. reminds me Of the
jokes people play upon each other by
wrapping up small things in innum-
cradle paper packages, so that one
has to open box after box. and dis
card wrapping after wrapping. be-
fore he gets down to the thing which
is wrapped up.-That is to say, n
little thought can be lost in pack
ing Of words.
Sincerely yours,

Would Take Away
Game Heads Power
To Promulgate Rules

Ex-senator Joseph W. Allen OF
Mt. Vernon told the committee on IN
land fisheries and game at nearing
Yesterday afternoon on the act 10
take away from the commissioners OF
inland fisheries and game the author
itv to promulgate rules and regula-
ttons for the opening or closing OF
waters to fishing, that the whole
system IS wrong. Senator Allen was
the only proponent Of the bill.
John F. Sprague of Dover FOX
croft opposed the bill in most force-
full manner. He said that he remem-
bered when the present law was
passed during the administration OF
Co.. Henry B. Cleaves.
Commissioner Of Inland Fisheries
and Game Willis E. Parsons said
that he did not really oppose the bill,
but no commissioner who really
wanted to do his duty would favor
it, although it would mako the work
of the commissioner great deal
easier. Commissioner Parsons fur
Their asserted that any one who knew
anything about the conditions would
be in favor of the bill.
Edward F. Merrill OF Skowhegan
opposed the bill which would pro-
vide a penalty OF a fine OF 500 or
Imprisonment for 80 days for per-
son who sells or gives away a flrearm
or any dangerous weapon to a child

George Hagerman Of Boston ex-
planned the contract to the committee
and answered many questions con-
corning the methods of tho N. E. It.
d L. Co. in handling its affairs with
the smaller connecting companies.
A. Van der Kerckhoven Of Bethel
and William J. Thompson Of China,
owners Of small connecting telephone
companies. also appeared in opposi-
ton to the bill
Act Creating Maine Power Authority
Rep. Samuel Norwood of Warren
appeared as the sole proponent for
the act creating the Maine Power au-
thority. Mr.. Norwood stated that
this act was a replica Of an act now
before the New York assembly which
had been presented to that body at
the suggestion Of Governor Alfred A.
Smith. Mr.. Norwood explained that
the commission would be similar to
the Ontario Development commission
which was an arm of the Canadian
government and which functioned in
such an economic and practical man.
ner that electricity in Canada today
was much cheaper than in the Unit
ed States. Citing as an example the
lighting on the international bridge.
half of which is paid by each govern
ment. Mr.. Norwood said. Though
both countries get their power from
the same source. Niagara Falls, the
Canadian government pays $500 for
it's share Of the lighting and the
United States, $4,000. The reason for
this is that in the United States cleo
trical development Is under the SUI
pervision of corporations and in
Canada, 1t is under the government.

pected to address the committee fall
ed to put in an appearance, t. mat
