Speaking before the members Of
Legion, and invited guests at the
regular meeting on Monday evening,
Hon. Blaine S. Viles paid high trib-
ute to the advantages of the State
OF Maine and to the future pros
perity OF the State. The guests in
ciuoed the boys of the senior classes
OF Cony and Hallowell High schools
and the speaker devoted a consid-
cradle part of his address to the
reasons why these young men should
live their lives in Maine and devote
their energies and abilities to the
development of our great natural re-
sources, which, the speaker declared
are unequaled in the entire coun-
try and at present prac rically un-
touched as far as development is
concerned"
State of Unlimited Opportunity
He described the State as he sees
1.-THE mighty empire of the
Northeast, possessing unlimited op-
portunities for the future, and Sc
cure in the possession of those great
natural resources which contribute
to the continued success and pros
perity of a contented people,"
He told the young guests of the
evening that he believed each
should select for his future work
that to which he is inclined. for
which he possesses talents, and
work which he loves to do.
There is no reason or necessity
for any young man taking up work
which Is drudgery to him, for the
held Is wide in scope and there is
call for all to do that for which
they are best fitted. and in which
they are sure to be successful"
Mr.. V1les suggested that the bust
ness and professional men of Maine
can be of great assistance to the
boy starting along the line that he
wishes to follow, and he counselled
the boys to go to successful leaders
and ask for their advice and assist
ance. II cannot believe that there
Is man in Maine," said the speak,
err. who will not sit down with n
boy and give him the very best adj
vice that he can, for in SO doing
such man is both aiding the young
man and the community which he
Is to serve"
To Establish LAUNDERING School
Mr.. Viles stated that in Maine
many young men are naturally in
terested in following the numbering
business, and that he proposes this
summer to establish a camp and
numbering operation where young
men can go and learn the real
fundamental principles of woods
work, receiving compensation on the
same basis as other woods labor,
ana determining for themselves
whether or not they are adapted for
and inclined to the business. 1T
Will be real test, and should be a
benefit to the young men and the
industry as well. Some will like
the work, and as a result will take
up the study of forestry: some will
work up in the business from the
start, and many undoubtedly will
find that it is not the business for
which they are adapted"
I'VE are entering upon an era of
development here in Maine which
is to be substantial, healthy and
enduring. The first step along this
pathway is for us to take account
of stock of what we have, and to
bring ourselves to realization of,
and belief in, the wonderful posi-
bilities that confront US. We are
proceeding slowly and carefully, for
we wish no false hysteria aroused.

PLANNING BANQUET
FOR C0Ny HIGH BOY
AND GIRL ATHLETES

rousing Cony High athletic BAN
quet to be held at Assembly hall is
being planned by the committee con-
sisting of students and teachers. who
have been given this matter in charge.
They expect to have the hall filled to
overlooking with the students who
have received letters in the past year,
and with parents of these students
and alumni of the school. The banquet
will be held at Assembly hall in two
or three weeks. 1t will be for both
boys and girls and students who won
their letters in baseball last spring,
football last fall, and basketball and
hockey this winter, who will be the
guests of honor.
The committee appointed consists of
Horton Flynt chairman, Russell Wins
low, Beverly Hewins and Miss Emma
Gammons and Harry Leighton of the
faculty.
The Cony High teams feel that they
have challed up a record in the past
year that would entitle them to con-
sideration by any school in the State
in every sport. In that time they
have won the Kennebec Valley cham
pionship at baseball, they defeated
Deering and tied Bangor at football,
won from Portland and tied Canton
for the State championship at hockey.
the girls basketball team defeated
Portland and the boys defeated Ban
gor at the same game.

in Maine by first selling Maine to
ourselves, and we must all work for
Maine, secure in the absolute real.
ization that we have State of pos
sibilities limited only by the, effort
that we put forward in her behalf"
Predicts Great Development
The speaker predicted wonderful
developments about our inland
lakes, which are already taking
form, along our coast, and indus
trially in our forest resources.
There is not village in Name"
said the speaker, "but what can Sc
cure and support a substantial
hardwood industry with a little eff
fort, for the supply is here, and the
country is in need of these pro-
ducts"
Men from Maine are DEVELOPING
the rest of the country. How easy
and worth while it will be for ey.
eryone to take hold and develop this
wonderful State, Astounding in op-
portunities!"
In closing, Mr.. Viles drew a strik-
ing comparison between Maine and
other sections of the country, bring
ing out the advantages of each, and
lett his audience in the belief that
our state so far surpasses any other
section that we should all be duly
thankful that we have an emporium
lty to live our lives in Maine.

To Drain Zuider Zee

Holland has under consideration q
project for draining part Of the
Zuider zee, the only available was In
which the country can add more
territory for its increasing popula-
ton. Within the last 200 years the
countrys area has been extended by
reclamation projects from 5000 to
10000 square miles. Zuider zee has
an area Of approximately 100000
acres, and while it is not intended
to reclaim all of this, IL is said that
about 100000 acres could be drained
and thus add that much of very fer
tile land to the country's area. The
damming Of Zuider zee, quite apart
from its drainage, would result in
benefit to the adjacent provinces,
as the frequently occurring floods
which cause enormous damage, would
be a thing of the past. The esti-
mated value of the land that would
be reclaimed is 1904, 600. 900.
