as much so as that in the manu-
facture Of embroidered novelties. The
machines have the appearance of
giant sewing machines. ten wards
long and 10 feet high, Containing
over 700 needles and bobbins at one
time. and capable of embroidering 20
yards Of cloth In is minutes. The
machines run automatically and the
patterns Of the designs are on rolls

player piano. A watcher keeps on
duty looking for broken threads and
Is able to thread needle while the

Maine-made materials and by-prod-

finished products as near Maine-

their small way they are adding
credit to Maine made goods and its
industry.

OAK GROVE

"Whaf Time Do You Wake Up?'
was the unique subject that DIR. Rufus
M. Jones of Haverford, Pa. ar-
nounced as theme on Monday, when
he addressed the Oak Grove girls In
Sophia Bailey Memorial chapel. In
his own inimitable style that Is
frightened with keen wit and exalted
with the philosophy which has raised
him to such imminence, DIR. Jones
held the complete attention of his au-
dience for the hour. In the first half
of the address. DR.. Jones gave numer-
Gus examples to prove that the per-
son who succeeds In life must be
awake and alert. The last half of
his address emphasized the three
needs as DIR. Jones saw them for the
development of great character and
neutrality-suspicious. expansion and
Inspiration. DR.. Jones was the guest
of the school at luncheon and enjoyed
meeting all the Oak Grove girls.
Guests from Oakland. Winthrop. Sid
ney and other neighboring towns
awaited themselves of the opportunity
to come to Oak Grove and hear DIR.
Jones.
The lure Of the warm sun and beck
oning hills proved irresistible to the
Oak Grove girls Tuesday afternoon
and they made an earnest request for
half holiday. Mrs. Owen called q
special assembly together Immediate
ly after luncheon and gave the girls
an opportunity to present their plans
and requests. After brief discussions
as to whether the girls would rather
have the holiday then or bit later,
there was unanimous sentiment
that a more perfect day could not be
found. With cheers and songs for the
faculty the girls donned their sport
clothes and the frolic began. Horses
were saddled, the toboggans and sleds
were rushed out and the entire cam
pus was soon a merry place.
One of the big events of the half
holiday was the third game IN the
inter- class series for the school
championship. The Seniors romped
off with 1910 victory over the JIM
Tors. With a sextet of very tall
maidens who are alert and skillful
the Seniors had a great advantage
from the start While the shorter
Juniors fought vaIiantly and made
some fine plays. they were too much
handicapped by their shorter stature.
Helen Wetherbee was the bright star
of the Juniors and was well sup
ported.

DEBUNKING ATHLETICS

Bunk, as most commonly UNDER
stood nowadays. Is not defined in the
Standard Dictionary of 1916. Suffice
to say most of us do not turn to the
dictionary to learn what 1t means.
Have we not been overwhelmed by
1t in it's varied forms? The Infamous
DIR. Cook was not the first to resort to
1t. nor the last. It is spread before
our eyes on the printed page, 1t
tickles the ear subjected to verbal
barrages, it even flavors the compli-
ments we would pay ourselves or the
other fellow. An insidious, likewise
an overwhelming stimulant. this
bunk can be. and 1t occasionally
leaves the victim in a deplorable
condition.
About the varied sport crazes there
has been a growing suspicion that
these have been more conducive to
chatter than merit might seem to
warrant. OF the merit there should
be no doubt. Neither does it all con-
sist in winning that which Red"
. Grange is out for. But when foot
ball becomes, II 1t ever does. an eX-
cuse for going to college. it should be
time to call a halt. strip off the I'M
real and see the situation in it's right
proportions.
Something like this. 1t appears,
Bowdoin's coach would do. In re-
cent address before the Boston
alumni Mr.. Gates said:
I'VE don't limit all of our atten-
ton to the fifteen or eighteen boys
who comprise what we call. for con-
venience, the first squad. The sec
ond, third and fourth teams are given
almost as much attention as the first
stfingers. They have a right to at
tention just as much as the men
chosen to start the games. Foot
ball needs. far more than anything
else, to be debunked. There is too
much publicity given to teams and
individual players; the theory that
You have got to win is all wrong" 4
Unless college athletics are adapt
ed to the cultural needs of the stu
dent body as whole its physical de-
velopment may be even inferior to
that Of the crowd occupying the
bleachers at a baseball game. Vocal
chords are not the only part of the
anatomy in need of culture. And
speaking of culture it has long been
recognized that judicious pruning is
an essential. We are glad to learn
that Bowdoin's coach is aware of this
and has the courage to stand by his
convictions.

LET'S GET ABOUT IT

Augusta Is not alone under the
menace Of postal favoritism to the
Mid West. AS previously remarked
In these columns. loss of three mil
lion dollars paid out by publishers
here does not threaten Augustus
residents alone. 1t would mean three
million dollars less spent In Maine as
the result of Maine enterprise. Au-

concerned.

purpose, threatens to rob Peter to
pay Paul, that these laws are taking
from Augusta a business conceived
and developed here and tend to move
It bodily to other States favored by
such legislation? How may we CO.
operate with other States that the
Government has discriminate d
against?
These questions are in the minds
of Augusta people. Certain citizens
are discussing ways and means. 1t
has been suggested that we at least
should have q mass meeting; that
our representatives in the Congress
should be invited, to confer with us
and advise us. This seems a most
sensible thing, to do. Those rep
raaentatives cannot be looked to for
relief by their own unaided efforts.
It 10 believed they have done what
they could, but they should be able
to advise us respecting the situation,
they should be able to confer with
associates from other States. It is
fair to assume they would appreciate
some such opportunity as that sug-
gested. One way to Boost Maine"
would be for citizens to sign a pro-
test against the iniquities of the
