SPRING FEVER
A New York physician has created or resurrected

A New York physician has created or resurrected a scenti-
ic name for a very old disease. 1t is "ergophobia" a combina-
10 OF W. Greek words meaning, work" and fear" and 10
used to describe a psychological ill which creates a FEELING
OF panic In the presence of work.
lie erophoolac 1t appears, is not physically untitled for
manual labor but, like the person who has a deadly fear of
STANDING on heights or being trapped in closets or walking
through cemeteries at night, he is prey to a curious dread of
unknown shadowy ills that may befal him if he works"
Fastening a fancy name on laziness will probably have No
marked effect on the publics attitude toward the hobo. "Bum"
II d shorter' more expressive and more memorable description
ID ergophoplac. The rest of the world, which has it's own
PERIODS Oh unenthus1asm over work, will still be inclined to at
tribute any permanent condition of that sort to what is
KNOWN however 1naccuratey, as shiftlessness. 1t will REQUIRE
more than Greek name to uproot the idea that laziness is
voluntary and as far as fear is concerned it will take time
TO wipe out the force of the old saying, "He isn't afraid of
"ork-why, he can lie down beside it any day and go sound

THE AUTOMOBILE POOR"

olles were bought on the instalment plan last year and the
retail clothlers' association cries national ruin" Income tax
returns show 100000 people with incomes of more than
$4,000, yet there are 10,192,0O0 registered automobiles. More
cries OF extravaganza and ruin. Another report says there are
t,oooO0O people earning less than $40 a week who own auto
mobiles. A panic is inevitable, is the reverberating answer. But
then upon the top of it all banks announce more and larger
savings accounts and the life insurance companies are thriving
on a IL per cent increase in issued insurance.
Soace for the calamity howlers may be found in the
statistical report that the bad accounts among the automobile
lnstallment plan buyers amounted to less than one per cent of
the huge amount involved last year. AT .leeast the "extravaqant
poor are paying their way.
Many incomes are mortgaged annually for the purchase
OF automobiles on periodic payments, also for the buying of
homes, furniture, musical instruments, clothes and even life
insurance. But for this plan of buying many of the lows and

FORD STOCK POOR
BUY SAYS BANKER

Wyoming has been circu-
larized recently by a company
offering to sell United States
units of the capital stock of
the Ford Motor Company of
Canada, Limited. The offer
ing is at ten dollars per unit,
and it appears that n unit
represents one-hundreth part
of one share of stock. On
this basis the marketing is
being done on the basis of
$1,000 per share, whereas the
Ford Motor company, of Can
ada, Limited, stock can be
purchased through reputable
firms for $4,000 per share.
The secretary of the Wyo-
ming Bankers association is
sending out a warning to in
vestors to proceed with eau
ton in purchasing this stock.
1t is said to be not all it
is represented, and those with
money should consult their
bankers before investing.

INCOMPLETE STORY
WORSE THAN NONE

News stories have been cur
rent during the past week in
Montana and Wyoming papers
telling of the Buffalo Bill"
banquet held in Cody on Thurs
day evening of last week. The
press notes are very i'll adj
vised, and tell little or moth
ing of the splendid program
arranged by the Cody club at
that time and of the speakers
who came from Lander and
Lowell to join with the Cody
Club in it's annual occasion.
Considerable resentment has
been expressed by many in
Cody that such unauthentic
and i'll advised stories such
as these be sent out.
Mayor Ed Farlow made a
long and tiresome journey
from his home town to speak
at the Cody banquet. Reyn
Leedom, editor of the Lowell
Chronicle tore himself away
from his work and came to
Cody to do his part in max
ing the program a success.
Yet the news story sent out
mentions neither of these men,
nor is it in any other respect
conformable to the program
which was given.

as the payments are paid on time there is no harm done,

Should the visoners of an Observation-Disclosures economic dis

with trifles is more honored in the breach than in the observance

BELGRADE
Graduating Exercises 3. H. S.


Seven students received diplomas
Friday evening, June IL, from Bel
grade High school. The graduating
exercises were held at the Grange
Hall before a very large audience.
Seats, aisles, and entryroom were full
of relatives, and friends. The hail
was very deliberately trimmed in the
class colors, pink and white, with a
great pink banner extending across
the whole width Of the stage, bearing
the motto, 1--WE have crossed the bay,
the ocean lies before U.S." The stage
was decorated with flowers and two
beautiful flags, one state of Maine,
and the other American. These flags
were presented by the class to the
school during the exercises.
Marshalled by Miss Lurline Alex
ander, the graduates were conducted
to the stage, and the school to re-
ser> ed seats at the front of the hall.
Smiths orchestra of Augusta fur
nished excellent music. After prayer
by Rev. John Rix of Belgrade Lakes,
Joseph Kinney delivered the saltta-
tory address on 1.-THE Iron Age" Miss
Annie Pray gave a very interesting
essay on the state seal of Maine, and
the reasons why Names motto Dbl
rigo." is so appropriate. Miss Pray
also recited a very fine poem upon
the making Of the seal of Maine.
The class history was given by Miss
Nathalie Taylor in an unusually
clever way. Each member was de-
scribed and 1ikened to some famous
man or woman in history. She read
a beautiful poem In memory OF the
lost classmate, Grace Farnham'
Raw HI. Higgins delivered the pro-
phecy and presented gifts to his
classmates. A crow, some relative of
Poe's famous raven, really inspired
the prophetic utterances, and the hits
were clever and apt. The gifts were
funny and appropriate for the class,
after which Mr.. Higgins presented
the flags to the school.
The next number on the program
wah ouite unusual and interesting,
showing the audience some of the
nra ctical things the students really
understand in chemistry and PHYSICS.
TT. Leslie Brown and William j.
Damren brought upon the stage
large table and proceeded to ciearlV
demonstrate four interesting Things,
that air has weight, the process Oh
electroplating, the action or an eiec-
trio motor. and the acton OF rauioo
meter. One boy worked while the
other spoke, each doing two demon
STATIONS. This unusual number was
verv interesting to the audience as
n was so different from the general
entertainment.
