which is needed each year by
thoughtful, helpful, generous citizens
of Maine.
"Hello," comes the call, "the nine
teenth annual sale of Christmas Seals
and Health Bonds is approaching
Will you help?'
During the past year, 511 OF
Names crippled children have been
examined at the clinics held under
the auspices Of the Maine Public
Health Association. or these, 264
have been strongly urged to enter
hospitals for operations, sixty-tWo
have been operated upon and others
are on the waiting list. Many Of
these youngsters are now able to run,
play and take part in games like
normal children.
Others, 1877, have had 1913 visits
in their homes by public health
nurses, and nearly all of them are i'm
proving. Can you imagine the
amount of JOY this service has
brought to many Maine homes?
Also, 225 cases have been exam
ined at tuberculosis clinics, and 1856
of these are improving. Some OF
them have had hospital care, while
others have been cared for in their
homes by the local nurses.
Again, $4,000 Maine boys and
girls are learning how to keep
WE'LL by the daily "chores" OF the
Modern Health Crusade, which is
supported in large measure by the
little Christmas Seals and generous
contributors
This is "health work" This Is
the sort of thing which the Christ
mas Seals and Health Bonds provide
for in Maine.
Hancock county has received much
| benefit from the splendid service
rendered during the past year by one
of the Maine Public Health Associa-
tons most efficient nurses, Miss
Maude S. Smart, who has done much
in this section toward improving and
creating such health measures as'are
needed She has accomplished much
| in an educational way and the results
Of her work are far-reaching and I'M
portant. Many of the boys and girls
of this county will, through her ef-
forts, have much better chance in
life by being able to meet 1t without
the handicap Of i'll health.
This county should be proud, also
of the fact that the competent, popu-
lar State leader of the modern Health
Crusade Is a citizen Of Hancock
county-Miss Abbie Buck of Orland
Now, it is surely up to the one city
and the thirty-three towns OF Han
cock county to show tremendous
interest in this splendid work by pur-
chasing all the Health Seals and
Bonds possible. Mrs. Frank Nc
Gouldrick of Bluehill is county chair
man, and is organizing the various
communities for the coming sale. A
list Of the committees Is promised by
her for publication next week.

ON BURNING STEAMER.
North BroOkSvilIe Mother and Four
Children on LenaDe.

Mrs. Anh ur e. Stearns of North
Brook sville, with her four children,
was on the Clyde steamship Lenape,
which was burned while on the trip
from New York to Jacksonville, Fla
Interviewed on the train on which
she was proceeding to Florida, Mrs
Stearns said: "Et was horrible, but
| am thankful to Providence that we
are still here and that my babies
are safe"
Hearing the siren of the Lenape,
sounding a call for help, Mrs. Stearns
dressed the children. In her arms
she carried Beryle, two years old, and
Robert, eight months old, up the
ships ladder, followed by the other
children-Arthur, aged seven and
Charles, aged five. They were on
deck for almost three hours, and the
big ship burned fiercely. When res
cuers came, Mrs. Stearns herself put
her children into the life boat.
Capt. Charles w. Devereux, mas
ter of the Lenape, whose handling or
the ship in the crisis has been the
subject of much praise, is a native
of Castine, where he still maintains
home and spends his summer vaca-
tions.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Many people discount everything that is said by preacher, and yet even to such persons the following article should be a challenge. Moro than two thousand persons listened to Rev. Clinton Wunder, of Roches- ter, New York, give an address, of which we are reprinting that part which seems of universal applica- tion. His theme might be called The Church honestly applying itself to daily life and the evils which 1t must solve.
 Holds Church Responsible
 MT. Wunder appealed first for peace between the citizens of this nation and called upon the church to take the lead in maintaining har- monious relations between the in- terests that claim allegiance to the American flag by setting an ex- ample of peace within itself.
 "The church," he said, "must aid our government to teach that all who live here are Americans who have a right to the same privileges and upon whom are imposed the common duties and royalties of citi- zenship. We cannot be a party 10 any plan that thrives on intolerance,
