Eccentric Comedy and Dancing Act at Palace

the Blue Slickers at the Palace the
last half of this week. Comedy and
eccentric dancing is the specially of
this pair. Jack Howe, the King of
Kazoo, does his stuff in a manner
that assures him of his title. The
company carries its own orchestra
of two banjos, violin, and kazoo and
they sure are good.
The Hi-Lo Five presents pro-
gram of emi-classical and popular
song in the form of a quartet with
dancing accompaniment. The act
has that little bit in it that makes
at so different from the average run

snappy and filled with thrills. The

Those Vanderbilt Children

The long and anxious struggle of the elder Van
derbts to another title to the family has ended
in defeat for the old folks victory the
generation.
The beauty and charm of Grace Vanderbilt fur
nished effective ammunition in the parental cam
paign but the best strategy went blooey when 1t
velopsd that Grace also had independence of mind
and disposition not to allow mothers dictates to
upset the dictates of her heart
So now Grace is Mrs Henry Gassaway Davis, wife
Of young American mining engineer, instead of the
Princess Woofwoofwoofsky what have you2 1t will
be recalled that the parental campaign once
ported to be directed at the Prince of Wales. The
young woman's elopement and marriage actually
fastened according to report by the familys final de-
termination that she marry an Englishman of rank.
One may feel certain sympathy for the old folks
in their hour of sorrow, but it is difficult to withhold
cheer at the sight of the two youngest descendants
of the famous Commodore Vanderbilt soaring away
from the paatial parental coop in which strenuous
efforts were made to clip their wings.
Daughter Grace has only followed the course of
self determination pursued by her brother Cornelius
Jr. The attempt of the arstocratic General and Mrs
Cornelius Vanderbilt to make tea hound of young
Cornelius likewise failed.
1t is true that the boy Vanderbilts publishing en-
terprise busted in big way and that he seems to
naFe olSplayeo no very great administrative apluty
1t is also true that newspapers have failed before and
that vanderblts properties went to pieces during
period in which he undergoing seventeen separate
operations result of being gassed during the war
At any rate the boy is still in his twenties With
the benefit Of his sad experience. assortment Of
high ideals and undoubted courage, he may yet go
long way He must have the stuff in him. 1t takes
more than many of have to throw off the shackles
of wealth and aristocratic surroundings.
Through all his adventures and troubles Grace
Vanderbilt remained loyal to her brother Her SYM
pathy surely meant great deal to him after he had
lost that of his father and mother.
Cornelius Vanderbilt Jrq recalling the famous
Vanderbilt expression 1.-THE public be damned" placed
at the masthead of his newspapers the motto: 1.-The
public be pleased"
If they were not both very nice young people, one
might now almost expect Grace and Cornelius to
nail up flag, dedicated to individualism and in
scribed:
THE family be damned"

Question of Primaries

Like most other States, Maine
has become interested in the ques-
ton of abandoning primaries.
A meeting of those who want To
return to the convention system was
held in Augusta on Thursday, and
committees we're appointed to out
line a campaign.
Arguments pro and con are the
same here as everywhere else. Those
opposed to primaries claim that they
have resulted in no better officials
and no less corruption. They point
to what occurred in Pennsylvania
Illinois and Indiana last year to
prove their point.
Those favoring primaries answer
that this is all wrong; that people
have forgotten how bad conditions
used to be.
Admitting that primaries have
brought little improvement, they
certainly stopped what had become
decided drift toward machine
politics. Whether they can be dis
carded without renewing the risk
is the all important question.

WATCH FOR AuRoRAsl

WAlOf1 FUN AOROHAS
If history repeats itself, we hall
be treated to some fine displayl OF
northern lights" within the next
few months. One Of them may
come on any clear and nloonlAss
night, though Of course they are nok
visible so early in the evening ii
summer as in winter, on account ok
the longer period of daylight.
Nature generally stages the most
spectacular of these manifestations
at time when spots are numerous
on the sun. We are now approach
ing the "sunspot maximum" which
is due on an average every eleven
years. For a long time 1t has been
known that there Is a connection
between auroras and solar activity.
The sun is supposed to send out
into space an enormous quantity
Of electrified particles, some Of
which enter the earths atmosphere.
Whenever this solar bombardment
becomes especially intense the high
ly rarefled gases of the upper at
mosphere are setaglow by the pass
age of electrical discharges, and
the visible aurora is thus produced.
The aurora tends to be concern
trated in two>belts, surrounding the
Arctic and the Antarctic regions.
Far within the Arctic Circle auro-
raj displays are seen to the south
ward. In the United States we see
them mostly to the northward, but
occasionally one spreads so far TO
the south that 1t fills the whole
heavens in our ATTITUDES. This hap
pened in the case of the magnifi-
cent display Of March, 1920.
Thousands of photographs Of the
aurora have been taken in recent
years in Norway. BY means Of pho
tographs taken simultaneously from
two or more places some miles
apart, the distance and dimensions
of any feature Of a display can DO
determined. Some auroral stream
ers have thus been traced 10 o
height Of more than 4S0 miles above
the earth.

1t Is sad commentary the ways of men that
the world builds monuments to military leaders who
slaughter thousands, while it permits hero who
offered his life that others might be
T1,,s,,.,1 saved, to suffer from want and suffer-
O''0"''S ing actual hunger
Uoroee Attention has recently been called
to the of John r. Kissinger, hv-
ing in Huntington county, Indiana,
who was one of two privates in the United States
Army risking their lives in 1900 by permitting them
selves to be infected by the yellow fever mosquito.
The experiments which followed provided knowledge
of the disease which has resulted In the almost
plete eradication Of the plague
The herosm involved in the offer of Kissnger
complete for he was well aware of the dangers
incurred when he offered himself for the experiment
AS result of the bite of misquito that had pre-
viously fed patient sick with yellow fever. the
soldier himself infected with the disease and mar
rowly escaped death during the resulting illness. He
mustered out of the Army year later and settled
finally in South Bend, Ind In 1907 he became
seriously i'll and in 1911 the government gave him an
annuity of 81 200. Kissnger has suffered with re-
peated illnesses since the original attack Of yellow
fever. His wife, who assisted the family income by
her own work, is now i'll and unable to provide the
modest sum that she earned.
If 1t not for heroes of the type Of this man,
the world would be harassed by many deadly conta-
gous diseases They have been conquered by the self
sacrifice of individuals whose deeds lack the spec
tacular but nevertheless the true form of hero
ism.

Journalistic Pride

Bangor is town of some $4,000
people, having increased but little
during the last quarter Of a CEN
fury.
I paid visit to the Daily News
shortly after reaching town. 1t is
one of the few papers in this coun-
try that can claim circulation
larger than the population of the
town in which it is published.
The city editor has been in the
newspaper business forty-seven
years and has occupied his present
position thirty-five years.
He was just as proud OF two
scoops which he put over on the
opposition Thursday as though 1t
had been the first triumph.

nine out of every ten calls were

One call was from John Pulitzer,

These ns-oceanic flights have

TRACY
SAYS:
1t Does No Good to Go
Fast, If You Can't Tell
Where You Are Going.

We drove from Portland, Maine,
to Bangor on Thursday, distance
of $50 miles, and saw perhaps a
dozen good farms. There were
plenty of filling stations and over
night auto camps, however, and
more in the process Of construction.
Twenty-Five years ago Bangor
boosted eight great lumber mills.
There is not one left today. Cotton
mills, which have played such a
large part in the industrial develop
ment of Maine, are generally hav-
ing a hard time. Those of Sanford
form happy exception. They have
succeeded in overcoming the disad-
vantages of climate and transpor-
tation by continuously opening new
markets with novel goods. Just
now they are manufacturing fabrics
for automobile upholstery.

MaiorityFavor Mercy

Governor Fuller of Massachusetts,
has respited Sacco and Vanzetti and
his advisory committee, composed of
two college presidents and one ex-
judge, has held its first meeting.
Many people thought that he
would commute the death sentences
of these two men to life. The feel
ing in New England seems to be
that he can do no less in the end
and that he would have saved time
and suspense by doing 1t now.
There are some, Of course, who
think that the law should be per-
mitted to grind its grist, no matter
what has gone into the hopper, but
they are in the minority.
