MY GOLDEN GIRL By Walter F. Barron Her sunshine hair, All rippling rare.
 IL like to burnished gold; Her smile is clear, And pure and dear
 AS Romans' gold of old. Her eyes are bright With dancing light
 That glitters as it were gold; Her fathers dot Includes Q lot
 Of gilt-edged things. I'm told. The Golden Rule She learned at school Her motto seems to be; In tears or mirth My dear is worth Her weight in gold to me. I've told this girl My brains awhirl
 Because I love her go; And yet her will Is silence still- That's golden, too, you know!

MAINE VOTING ON THREE QUESTIONS
Water Power Issue Leads II
 Election Interest Today

Portland Me, Sept. 2 OP)- With the perennial problem of Wa ter power overshadoWing all other factors, Maine voters went to the polls today to decide the fate ot three constitutional amendments and two referendum vucstions.
 The balloting climaXcd one Of the most extraordinary campaigns in state history and the heaviest Vot; ever recorded on a referendum ;n Maine was anticipated.
 Water Question Up Heading the ballot was the high ly controversial water power qucs- tion, calling for ratification or re lection of the Smith Carlton bill to permit the export of surplus hydro electric energy generated within the state and to provide for sale be- yond the borders of the state through the medium of transmits sion companies to be organized un- der the act.
 Ratification-Which seemed the probable outcome of this refcrcn- dum-would involve the abandon ment of a 20-year-o policy Of i water power retention.
 Proponents of the Smith-Carlton l bill have argued that the Fernald lad, enacted two decades ago for conditions that no longer exist, is archaic and tends to restrict indus trial development in Maine. Lower rates for all consumers, extension ol identification and cnliyencd ind as trial activity would follow ratifica- contended.
 In it's counter paign the op- position claimed there was no pow CT surplus and that no surplus could exist until every isolated farm house in the state was electrified. It was contcnded that there would be no reduction in rates under the eXpOrC plan and that with Maine power available outside the state there would be no incentive for industries l to come 10 Maine.
 Under the Smith-Carlton bill an excise tax of per cent of the rev enuc obtained from the sale of eX- i ported power would be paid to the state by the generating companies. l Only surplus power could be eX- ported and authority to determine what constituted surplus would be vested in the public service com mission. Half of the gross income I'D tO &pJO 0Nn a year would be used | for rural clcCtrifiCatiOn.
