BRITISH CONCERNED

London.-A report from Afghanistan
that Russian troops made an unpro.
voked attack upon and captured the
Afghan post of Darkbad, or Darkad,
has aroused concern here.
In official circles 1t is believed II
the report proves true, the action of
the Russians will be regarded as a
significant step toward realization of
a movement which Russia Is alleged
to be secretly making toward India.
Stories Of attempts of Russia to gain
possession of Afghanistan. with view
to advancing through that country to
India, once caused frequent excite
ment. Diplomatic arrangements, how
ever, brought the scares to an end In
1907, after which until the bolshevlk
revolution in 1917, the DOGGY Of a Rus.
sian menace to Afghanistan and India
had not reared its head.

EDITORIAL
Our Commercial Club

So far as this paper has been
able to learn the way for CONNER
cial Club activities for the ensu-
ing year is both smooth and prom
ising. There seems to be general
atmosphere of hopefulness on the
part of everyone that 1926 will be
the best year in the history of the
island. The old officials have es-
tablished the prestige of the club
beyond any doubt and the News
Record feels confident that when
the organization is turned over to
new hands in few weeks, the
same forward looking program
will be carried out.
Mr.. Mcgowan has been on the
island for enough years to have
demonstrated his loyalty to every
island activity. He is man of
means, and has both the time and
ability to make the club a success,
should he be chosen to head it for
the present year. F. d. McClin-
took would have made an ideal
man to back him up as vice-pres-
ident, but Mr.. McClintock feels
that this work could be performed
as well by newer man and re-
commends for that position none
other than Norman Edison, the
Burton Artist, for the job. This
paper feels the suggestion of Mr..
McClintock is a wise one, for there
is no one man who has done more
toward putting the island before
the world than Norman Edison IN
his wonderful views. Mr.. Edison
is a progressive and faithful work
er. Our sleeves are rolled up a.
bove the elbows for Mr.. Edison for
vice-president. G. L. Garner
would make an ideal secretary.
He has worked early and late for
the commercial club during the
formative period, is very obliging
when asked to do things for the
club, has the unbounded conf
dence Of both Mr., Miller the pre-
sent head, as well as Mr.. Magow-
an, the proposed leader, and with
his consent to serve already OBJ
tanned, it would seem his election

Hartley Stands Pat

All the brow-beating and bull
doing engaged in by the last
special legislature failed to swerve
Governor Hartley from the
straight and narrow path he chose
when he was sworn into office.

Why Misrepresent?

The Seattle Star last week had a
story about the family tree''
which grows at the Court House
1t referred to a lot of candidates
who had been chosen for promo
tion from the different deputies in
different offices. 1t spoke of Abe
Olson, present chief deputy in the
Clerks office, for clerk. Why
shouldn't he be promoted2 He
has had about the entire charge of
the working force there for many
years, and no one will deny the
office has been run with the ut
most efficiency under his direc-
ton.
The Star also took a fling at
Archie Hutcheson who has been
under Sheriff for number of
years. The Star said that Sheriff
Starwich and Mr.. Hutchinson were
"brother- in-laws". As a matter
of fact they are no relation what
soever. Neither by blood nor
marriage. When there's a desire
to boost one candidate and knock
another, common fair play de-
mands that at least the facts that
are stated should have a semblance
of being true.

BEST MANAGEMENT
OF AN INCUBATOR

The incubator should be placed in n
room to Itself when possible. A good
cellar or basement Is the best place.
The machine should be set perfectly
level, then run for at least two days and
nights before the eggs are placed In
1t. II is good plan to place paper
over the egg tray when testing out the
machine. When the incubator is
empty, the thermometer will read
little lower than II would II the ma
chine were full, for when the eggs be-
come warmed they raise the temper
AZURE slightly. BY using the paper
over the tray a fairer test will be
secured.
The temperature In the egg chamber
should be brought up to 1903 de-
grees and the regulator adjusted
SO that It will automatically con
troll the temperature and main
tain It. A sort Of balance Ia thus
obtained between the adjustment Of
the regulator and the lamp. The damp.
err should stand an eighth Of an inch
above the fue. allowing the tempera.
ture In the room to vary somewhat
without extra adjustment Of the lamp.
Do not attempt to refill the lamp
while It Is attached or lighted FIJI the
lamp at about the same hours each
morning. Leave about quarter Of an

Morning Is good time to fll the
tray and start the hatch so the ma

hours for the eggs to become warmed
and for the machine to regain the
proper temperature.
Visit the machine three times daily
and oftener II convenient. Before re-
firing at night see that the lamp ls
burning and the temperature Is right.
The eggs should be turned twice
daily after the first "a hours. These
turnings should be as nearly the same
time apart as possible and should con-

The testing should be done In
darkened room or after night, as
better view of the condition Of the
eggs can be obtained. Do not test
the eggs in cold room. The eggs
should be tested on the eighth day. or
If you are not experienced In testing
It is better to wait until the tenth day.
BY this time the development of the

New England Keeps
Faith With Heroes
Of the World War

Boston. May 30-P)-"We will
keep faith with you who lie asleep"
That is New England's promise to
her sons who fell in the World War.
The words are carved deep in the
frieze of the memorial building at the
Massachusetts Agricultural College
in Amherst. Their spirit IL seen in
the scores of memorials, ranging
from simple bronze tablets to monu-
mental structures. which have been
erected in all parts of New England
in the seven and half years since
the war ended
On this Memorial Day the Civil
War which led to the establishment
of the annual. day of remembrance
seems far off. To the younger genera
ton the thin line of the G. A. r. is
page out of history. The brief
War with Spain is little but a fleet
ing memory save to those who
fought in 1t or sent their sons to
camp and battlefield. But to old and
young alike the World War is still
vivid reality. 1t is to the trenches
and forests of France that the
thoughts Of New England are turn
ing today.
Nowhere has tribute to the World
War heroes been paid more beauti-
fully than in the building at AM
herst. Its classic lines, outlined in
buff brick with limestone trimmings,
stand out against the wide expanse
of grass and Strees on the far flung
campus. In the background lie field,
meadow and forest, with undulating
i hills leading to the peaks of the berk-
shires rising hazily blue in the dis
lance. Beneath the frieZe with its
inscription are three deep-set arched
windows bearing the names "Aisne-
Marine" est. Mihiel and "Argonne."
This Is the epitome of Americas part
in the war.
The vision of the bridge thrown
across the Atlantic by the war has
appealed to many in their search
for symbols to be used in tribute
This has been most natably ex-
pressed in the Maine-N New Hampshire
! memorial bridge across the Piscata.

Erected at cost of S1,500,00O, this
