Wife lending is the native way of

the friend is young bachelor who

Publisher Curtis
Tells Governor
Of Interest in Maine

Cyrus II. K. Curtis of Philadelphia,
publisher and financier, is deeply
interested in the development pro-
gram of his native state of Maine,
/ yesterday said Governor Ralph O..
Brewster, who recently returned from
New York where he had a two hour
conference with Mr.. Curtis.
Mr.. Curtis asked for full details of
the plans of Governor Brewster and
other Maine leaders in the boom
Maine" program of attracting tour
lists and endeavoring to have them
remain as residents. He requested
copies of the various booklets on
Names industrial possibilities and
recreational advantages.
The Pennsylvania publisher ex-
pressed much interest in the recently
announced plan of organizing Maine
into historical tours" The State
owns many famous old forts which
are to be listed on tourist maps so
that natives and tourists may motor
along historic trails, showing where
battles We're fought, where Indians
lived. The Benedict Arnold trail
through Maine to Canada is one of
many to have guiding sign posts
along the route.
A tangible evidence of Mr.. Curtis
interest in Maine, was his recent gift
| of $1,000, to the Maine Publicity
Bureau. He also has a beautiful
summer home on the sea coast.
While in Philadelphia attending the
observance of Maine Day at the
Sesquicentennial, Governor Brewster
was the guest of Edward K. Stotes-
burg, Of the firm of j. P. Morgan &
Co. Mr.. Stotesburg has purchased
large summer home in Bar Harbor
and informed Governor Brewster he
was tremendously impressed with
the climate and scenic charm" He
discussed various angles of Governor
Brewster's plans for further publicity
for Maine.
The announcement of Mr.. Stotes-
burg's interest in the Maine develop
| ment program is regarded as very
important here, as he is d prominent
social and financial leader.
During the weekend preceding the
Maine Day observance, Governor and
Mrs. Brewster were guests of Gov
ernor Clifford Pinchot at his summer
home in Milford.
