WANTED TO SEE FILMS END
 so PILOT LET SHIP WAIT

l Lillian Gish was delighted with Italy from the very beginning. On the way to Florence to film George Eliot's novel. "Romola," Miss Gish's latest picture which is coming to the Lib- erty theatre tonight, the ship stopped in the Bay of Naples at midnight and Naples is a city that does it's sleeping mainly during daylight hours. The captain waited impatiently for the pilot ship Finally, becoming furi- ous, he radioed ashore.
 Eventually the pilot was found en- toying cinema. He casually told the messenger to radio the captain that he was at a cinema show and wanted to see how the picture ended.
 When Lillian Gish learned of this, the whole incident so appealed to her sense of fun that she insisted on meeting the pilot and congratulating him on his good taste that to let mere shipload of passengers interfere with his enjoyment of cinema was too unutterably stupid for words. Anyway, the ship was finally docked at three in the morning.
 "Romola" is an Inspiration picture, distributed by Metro-G -Goldwyn.

| when SOMETHING
| may GO WRONG

No rip-snorting cold days have as
yet hit this section of New England.
Freeze-ups have been few and far
between. but for all that they will
come, just as they have come every
winter. There will be some fine
cold morning when Mr. Gardiner
Citizen will find that the water has
Caught" in his pipes and he'll want
the matter attended to right away.
That is when the Wheeler Bros.
Co. will be called on the telephone to
rush a man to the house. The man
will be there on time. too. Wheeler

the finest hardware stores in Ken

employees men who are skilled in the
work-men who go about their task
with the least possible fuss and have
1t done as soon as possible. This
promptness and thoroughness have
been the means of bringing more and
more business to the company as
each season rolls round
1t is always a desirable thing to
have the heating apparatus looked
over each fall. Many Gardiner men
decided this past fall that this was
right. even though they may not
have done it before. AS n Jesuit,
their houses are being kept warmed
with less fuel than has often been
the case. Wheeler Bros. are experts
In heating and it is well to take

INDUSTRIAL REVIEW
GOOD NIGHTS TO
Be LISTENING IN"

December is one of the best
months in the year for radio recep-
ton. Thousands of fans in this Sec
ton are enjoying their favorite
pastime of. listening In" and are
having q great time Of it.
Some mighty good programs have
been coming over the air IF late and
the people of Gardner have been
fortunate enough to get everything
that seems TO be going. They may
thank M. p. Scott for a good part
OF their success. Not that he has
anything to do with the broadcast
ing. for he hasn't. But he does have
a whole lot to do with the receiving
end of the business for he is
radio dealer.
SCOTS is the radio headquarters
of Gardiner. One may easily be
convinced of that by paying a visit
to his establishment Here are
found the best of machines and a
full line of standard accessories. If
something is wrong with ones set,
the trouble may be remedied at
SCOTS without any difficulty. The
proper tubes, the right batteries and
a good aerial will insure success in
radio reception in great majority
OF cases. Scott will provide them
all and also give the service needed
to- make them work.
There are many new things III
radio this season. A real radio fan
is nothing if not enthusiastic. He
likes to have his set UP to date, even
though it may be a number of years
old. An old set may easily be
brought up to the minute by the
installation of new accessories.
Scott will supply these and tell how
set may be improved
Many people in the Kennebec val
ley have lately been getting distant
stations they never heard before.
Conditions have had lot to do with
this. but the right working of the
receiving apparatus has had much
more. California will be heard in the
early hours of the morning. 1t is
worth any fans time TO try it out
and then report to MI. Scott. He'll
be glad to know about the results
and will also be glad 70 tell how
better results may be secured.

new SERVICE
FOR HOUSEWIVES

Relieving the housewife of her most
1rksome work-washing has been
the aim of the Capital Wet Wash
laundry. This was the purpose at
the beginning of it's business and it
has continued to be the purpose
ever since.
But now this laundry has gone a
step farther in it's work. 1t has
installed a new process of drying
clothes SO that the work of hanging
them out is done away with. By
this new method, the clothes are
dried to just that degree one may
wish. They are first thoroughly
washed in most sanitary manner
and, if desired, the drying is done
The wet wash angle of the business
Is sun continued for those, who
wish this service.
The doing of the family wash is
an expensive operation, not only in
time consumed. but in materials
Particularly is it harder in the win
ter time when one may have 70 go
from the hot kitchen or the laundry
into the cold open air for the hang
ing out of the clothes. To send
them to the laundry is just as
economical, as doing them oneself;
even more so If one considers the
worry and the danger to health.
The Capital Wet Wash has built
up an enviable record for service.
A telephone call brings the laundry
truck to the door. The clothes are
taken away, thoroughly and sani-
tarily washed, and then brought
back. There is nothing left to do
except the ironing which is a simple
matter compared with the Washing
Now that the drying process has
been installed, the work is still more
simplified for those who wish to take
advantage of this service. House.
hold cares are lightened aid more
time is left for those many duties
which are SO pressing in the winter
time

GOOD TIRES NEEDED
FOR WINTER DRIVING

Judging by the way the weather
has been breaking Of late, automo-
biles will be run more the present
winter than has been the case for
many seasons past. That means. Of
course, that cars must be kept right
''up to SNUFF If they are to behave
properly.
With chains causing additional
wear on the rubber, 1T is necessary
that the tires be in good shape. Even
aside from the chains, there Is more
strain on the rubber at this time Of
year than at any other time. The
icy ruts, the slippery surface of the
road, the application of the breaks
all figure in the strain.
The Augusta Auto Supply Co
opposite the Colonial theatre main
tains an excellent vulcanizing
plant where tires may be put into
the best Of condition at the least
possible expense. There are many
who, while they may intend to drive
their cars all winter, do not wish to
purchase new tires at this time.
They feel that they can get by" If
the d,ss are properly vulcanized.
They will be able to do so. too. If
the Augusta Auto supply is called
on to do the work.
Batteries come in for a whole lot
or attention at this time. They need
1t. Battery service is another angle
OF the business of the Augusta Auto
supply. Good work Is done by COM
petent men. Best of all, 1t is
promptly done SO that an automo-
blilst need not wait for the Job to
be completed.
Those who drive open cars will
md 1t worth while to call at the
Augusta Auto supply to have the
curtains fixed for the worISmen
there do a mighty good job at this
as well as in the installation of win
ter tops.

BIG PURCHASES
LOWER PRICES

It's a great thing to be able to
buy a whole lot Of material and save
money, and then to be able to pass
this savings along to ones custo-
mers.
This is the case with the r. p.
Hazard Co. of Gardiner. Just now
this is the season when rubbers are
being worn by everyone. Men
women and children wear them.
Many men and boys are wearing the
popular leather top rubbers, for
these prove most desirable foot
coverings for those who have to be
or want to be out of doors when
the snow Is on the ground.
. The Hazard company, because of
its great size and large resources,
is able to buy rubber in large
quantities. This, naturally, enables
them to secure it at the lowest
possible rates, even though the rub
Der market is admittedly high. AS
a result of this, rubber goods are
put on the market at a much lower
price than one might expect. The
public buys through the hundreds of
retail stores of the Beck Hazard
system all over the eastern part of
the United States and thousands Of
pairs Of rubbers are sold in this way.
The same situation exists with the
footwear manufactured by the r. P.
Hazard Co. Thousands and thou
sands of dozens are turned out.
They find ready outlet through the
many stores. For imen and women
the highest priced shoe is four dol
lars and for boys and girls the high
est price is three dollars. These
figures are quoted in all the stores.
The large distribution and the big
facilities of the plant make these low
prices possible. Real Maine made
goods. therefore, are being brought
to the attention Of. thousands of peo-
pie through the medium of good
goods at low prices. This is one of
the methods Mr.. Hazard is taking
to help boost Maine and ITS products
and in 1t he is beins eminently
successful.

dogs are protesting against these
