NEW PULLMAN SERVICE ON BANGOR-HOULTON RUN

On account of numerous requests made by the patrons of the Bangor &

Aroostook railroad the management has decided to run a Pullman sleeping car from Bangor to Houlton on the train leaving Bangor at 2.30 a. m. on each Monday morning during the month of January. The car is to In* set in the station at Bangor and ready for occupancy at 9.30 p. m. Sunday night. This will give passengers an opportunity to reach Aroostook coun­ty points earl> in the morning and have a good night’s rest.

As the arrangement is experimental it has been arranged for this service only during the month of January but if the business warrants the service may be continued.

Commencing Monday. Jan. S. and continuing each Monday during the month of January, the Bangor &

will operate a sleeping car between Houlton and Boston on the train leaving Houlton at 1.40 p. m. Monday only and due in Boston at 4.50 a. in. Passengers may remain in the sleeping car at Boston until 7.30 a. in.

Each morning telegrams are sent to the broker keeping him posted on the outside market.

SAD ACCIDENTAT BRYSON’S MILL

The community was shocked Thurs­day when it was learned that Herbert Carpenter, employed in the mill of his father, known as Bryson & Car­penter’s mill had been killed outright while trying to put on a belt while the mill was going.

Mr. Carpenter was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Elbridge Carpenter and was about 18 years of age; a bright active' young man. Just how the accident happened will never be known. He* was at work on the run but for some reason went to the basement alone and after being gone about 15 minutes one of the men noticing that his work was not being done made inquiry of the lad’s father who began to investi­gate and found his son dead.

Hi.s clothing bad been torn terribly showing that he tried to put on the belt while the shaft was going; it is said that his father had warned him on several occasions about the danger. The hoy had been at work in the mill for only a week. The blow is a great shock to his parents and relatives to whom the sympathy of the community is extended.

Emery H. Oreutt of Ashland dic'd suddenly Friday at 5 o’clock of heart disease. Mr. Oreutt was one of the oldest Masons in Aroostook county, being a charter member of Pioneer lodge, Ashland. His age was 8(5. He

The speaker said that the' new mar­keting system would compel the tarn- er to sign up for a five year term; that he thought this was the only way it could be perfected: that this system would have its ups and downs before it could be perfected to such a degree as to be accepted as the best method;

. that unless the farmer was signed up he would grow his crop and rush it on the market causing trouble in that manner: that this new organization dead, would have new problems to solve for it was a most gigantic proposition.That if perfected would be the big­gest business done in the State of Maine. Mr. Porter said the farmers of Aroostook were taking more pains In the growing of potatoes than they ever had before and that they wen'Interested in certified seed stock and in grading;fact that the greatest injury to crop came first, from floods and then lie showed why Aroostook county is no: troubled on that account, showing that the soil Is just the right kind; that it lies near the big woods; tint th© underlying rock is of limestone ledge and stands on edge; that the climatic conditions in Aroostook is Ideal, that while we plant potatoes in May in most sections of Maine they are not planted until July owing to the floods which come causing the fields to be overflowed; -next to floods is disease and frost.

He said that there is no place in the United States where the farmers are as expert in the potato line as they are in Aroostook county; that the average farmer is skilled in this line of work. Transportation was taken -up and he praised the manner In which the crop is handled by the llangor & Aroostook showing plainly that the system is doing its very best and getting results; showing that on an average from 80 to 100 cars are moving out of the state daily; that there is a car shortage in the west due to the fact that in the west they move in refrigerator cars while in Aroostook line cars aie used; he dwelt upon the manner in which some section purchase their stock.In Aroostook county potatoes are sold by the barrel, in New York, Bos­ton, Philadelphia and other places by weight, ranging from loo to 165 pound sacks.

In touching on the diversified part of farming Mr. Porter rather surprised his hearers by saying that Aroostook county grows more oats than any twocounties in the state; more hay than , „ ,i nancially, with all lulls any other county; raises more colts : .

ter. to leave off some of the habits to which flesh is heir, to make a resolu­tion of any kind is very commendable but why should one wait for New Years, rather than start today? Yes­terday is gone, forget it. today is hen and if a person needs to make a reso­lution, why not do it today, for we know not what the morrow may bring forth and if the good resolve is mace today, tomorrow should bring a satis­faction that the resolution is one day old and the person making it should be one day better; today is as good a day for making a resolution as New Year's and if one should be made,NOW is the time to do it.

the perfume of leaves on the ground in October and November was like incense before the shrine ol the God of life.

of developing this continent.The famous Lewis and Clarke ex­

pedition was an army undertaking, as were nearly all the other explor­ing enterprises that revealed to the Fast the wonders of tin* West and Nort h west.

The United Stall's army built the early roads, the bridges and canals. It conducted tin* early surveys and made the maps the pioneers required for tin* settlement of tin* states beyond the Mississippi, and the thinly scat­tered little centres of population de­pended oil the army posts for protec­tion and security.

Wht*n the time came to link those outposts of progress with the Fast, tin* army located and constructed the railroads. Indeed, up to 1S.>;» almost every railway in the country was "pro­jected. built and operated" by tin* army in great part, not only in tin* West, but in tin* Fast as well.

These statements are a paraphrase of a portion of that illuminating ad­dress made by the secretary of war tit tin1 annual dinner of a chamber of commerce a few days ago, an address, so packed with surprises as fully to justify his own title, "1 Didn’* Know That." To quote one paragraph verb­atim. Mr. Weeks said:

"Army engineers located, construct­ed and managed such well known

The story of these army engineers invites to long discourse. Quietly they do their work and efficiently. They lay tin* foundations on which art* built our homes, our industries and our canine ret*.

Other army tales are fully as in­teresting. and just as remote from war. Tht* army's work in the cause of national health and sanitation is another marvel. The army surgeon as fully represents the medical pro­fession in the military field as doe-; tin* army engineer stand for the en­gineering profession, and the surgeon as truly is on guard against the foes of tin* national welfare as is the man on tin* firing line on guard against the visible enemies of the republic. Ex­cept for the titular head of the organ­ization and a few clerical assistants, the vast work of American relief in Europe, for which the name of Mr. Hoover stands, was till done by the United States army.

the human mind. Men sometimes think they have lost it; but it remains. The child faces forth into the world unafraid, confident that all is well. As he grows older he finds that there are obstacles to be overcome; but he reaches forth with the same impulse that drove him to play in other years Become aged, he dreams ahead, gropes for things yet to come, knows that however full his life may have been, of joy or of sorrow, there is yet more ahead, yet something new, yet some experience that lias not been his.

Suffering, shock and tragedy come upon men. But they arise, as the world lias for untold centuries arisen from the tragedies that 'nark with scars tht* annuls of humanity. There is latent in them that curious spark of youth, that will which will not he extinguished, which will not suffer de­struction. which flickers low beneath the shadow of disaster, and lies wait­ing for the new moment when it can burst forth again and reconquer lift*.

The spirit of the new year is in the human heart. Each day we put be­hind us all that has passed, and each day we start forth into tin* new coun­try. unexplored, filled with mystery. Wo go eagerly or we go haltingly; we go with a song or we go in dread. But we go. \Ye go because youth drive- us. leads us. persuades us.

Mankind does not surrender. He bends and shivers beneath an ava- lanch of tragedy, he cries out the pain of his sorrow. But, with the inheri­tance of the centuries In* gathers to­gether again the scattered remnant.' of his strength, anti goes on. Because of the spirit of youth which is always there.

Material things perplex us now, a; we face forward into the year 1921. Distress reigns where the human right to seek happiness should control the way of men. Envies, hatreds, malice and all uncharitableness vie with one another in the world’s chancellories and crowd about the boards of the world's political arbiters. Selfishness and greed bargain with humanity for gain. Cold calculation utilizes the powers of reason for evil ends. Wild passions are fanned and perverted by the sinister-minded. Yet these* prob­lems we shall solve In good time, else civilization dies; anti tint is un­thinkable.

So another new year, as our calen­dar marks time, comes, and with it new problems which art: new oppor­tunities for the youth of the world. We do not know what events the new year holds. We do not know what ma­terial happiness or tragedy will mark it in the history of facts. But we know that it stirs again in the heart of man the determination to go on­ward. We know that again it arouses to fresh victories the youth of the world.

A M A IN E W IN T E RThe trouble with our winter is not

winter at all. It is just the way we have to live nowadays. Win'er is a natural state of things, and it is not easy for what we call civilization and we may have the wrong definition —to accommodate itse’f to it. Civili­zation does not. really try to accom­modate itself to the climate; anil if can't accommodate the climate to civilization. So we go on simply ignor­ing weather, and then when the dash comes we blame the weather. This is unfair to the weather.

If you really want to find out wheth­er any climate anywhere is good or bad, you have to get away from the cities and go out in the country where

H1ENRY FORD A MIRACLE MANConsider for a moment the phe­

nomenon of Henry Forth He is an immensely wealthy mail, perhaps the wealthiest man in the United States yet the public scents no danger to its libe'ties from his fortune. He is an autocrat of the quintessential type in the conduct of his business, labor anions have nothing to say in tin* management of his plants, there is no "industrial democracy" there yet the public Seems to he satisfied with the situation. If he doesn'i like the juice

I for coal he shuts down in*- Judge Gary trying to ".get

w it h such a thing! He makes re profits by uudorselling everyone e and rules his dealers with a red iron and tin- jnihlir thinks well of

money? Instead of asking foolish questions, state in the form of per­centage the chance that Judge Gary would have to "get bv” with a similar operation! Henry buys a broken down railroad, tratios his freight with its connection for business for his road -and the public clamors that lit* show the railroads of the country how to make money. He makes a bid for Muscle Shoals and the public uprises to demand that he he given a contract, which if made with any other "big corporation" would probably lit* her­alded as a "national scandal” from Maim* to California. He thinks his­tory is "hunk." lie attaeks the Jews, lie attacks the Federal Reserve Bank, lit* favors rag-money and the aboli­tion of "hanking"- and a Wall street newspaper (if it wrote ironically then* was nothing to indicate it!* says lie will do for President !

What's the answer?Midi, it is an old proverb that says

one man may s eal tht* horse while another may not even look over the hedge. There are, also, a good many people in this country who believe in Henry Ford's idea of "taking ti e minutes as read" so far as the past goes. One good thing about complete absence of knowledge regarding the “ state* of the question" is that every­thing is possible so far as evidence to the contrary is concerned. Once in a while this leads to at-hit*vement of tht* impossible. Likewise, tht* "miracle man" notion lias always thriven on our soil. It is nourished by tht* same climatic conditions as those which equip the patent medicine shelves in our drug stores. In olden times medicine and religion produced the “miracle man." Today it is natural that he should appear iu business. Short cuts to health, short cuts to heaven and short cuts to prosperity are all in the saint* category so fa*' as their appeal to men goes. Busi­ness has had its "captains," its "barons," its "pirates," its "malt*-'

.factors," hut with Henry Ford if. ' •Miters Into possession of its first “miracle man." And it is little short of amazing how many peoph* of all ages, ranks and degrees of intelli-

! gence have fallen under his spell. .Sunday paper "science" lias assured-! ly made us a superstitious people!

HOW ONE MAN WONVoluminous hooks art* written t<*i-

lin.g young men how they can sueeeed in business. But the biographies of successful business men tell just as much. Tin* fellow who studies how a man like John Wannamaker, whose death lias just caused deep regret, at­tained hi- position in tie* business world, will get a pretty good id**a as to what an* tie- foundations of suc­

cess.Mr. Wannamaker hast'd his amaz­

ing results as a retail merchant prin­cipally on two ideas: First, fair trea’ - nient for tie* public; second, liberal advertising. The key-note of his whole career is found in the story ot what lie did with tie* receipts of his first business day as a clothing deal- t r. Out of the $24.(57 he had taken in on that day. I t* set aside (57 cents to make change with and spent the $24 in advertising. Thereby he manifest­ed tin* principals of initiative through which any man who sells good goods can make a success of business.

ted line"—all that was left to do was to take the signatures. In some places a strong opposition to the movement had developed but in Patten not a dis- semting voice was heard. The largest growers were invariably the first to sign.

He made a report on the recent meeting held at Washington, I). C. which Mr. Sapiro attended. He said it was a pleasure to know tin t oflit’ ial Washington was heartily in favor of the- organization plan. He explained pending legislation which is designed to aid all the farmers in the way of credit. At the Washington conference thirty-six states y&ere represented, including Maine. The purpose of the1 meeting was to get men from all over the1 country together to talk over the financial needs of the farmers.

If this organization is formed it will be the1 first of its kind formed in the United States to handle potato’s. Several states are getting ready to organize. He expressed doubt as to whether they would be able to per- fect their organization in time to handle the 1923 crop. Maine will lead in this movement as she has done in so many other things. He predicted that inside of a year till the principal potato producing sections will have- been organized.

He told many stories of act util hap­penings in the selling of potatoes which would be ludicrous if they were not almost pathetic. One case in particulai brought out the ineeiualitie-s in marketing methods. A grower in one of the* southern state's came to Maine last fall and bought a car load of seed potatoes for which 1 e paid $4 , a barrel. His neighbor wished to buy a ear of seed and bought from the next door neighbor of the man who sold the first ear. The seed used on the two Maine farms came from the same bin last spring. The two farm­ers treated their crop exactly alike and of course there was no difference ; in their product. When the buyer number two got his potatoes to his southern farm he found they had cost ' him $1.50 per barrel as against li is neighbors $4 per barred. When the organization is perfected and in opera­tion this sort of tiling cannot happen. All parties will give and receive* a fair price for the commodity. He stressed the seed end of the business

■and said theme was no doubt but that Maine* could regain hen southern seed trade when the product shall be eerti- fie-d by «: responsible; organization. At presemt meist of the; southern seed is purchased in Canada where the I government certifies the* stuff and in­spects it rigorously.

Several other ponits we-re made, one of which is interesting. A farmer has the1 right to Imy back his potatoes from the association and re-sedl them as his private stock. Of e*ourse; lie will not be allowed to use the sacks or guaranff’e of the association lmt he can buy and re-sedl "on his own".

Recently Air. Rubinow made1 some- calls on the1 stores in New York to find out what the consumers were paying lor potatoes. At three s ores In* was told tlmt they did not handle .Maine stuff. At each store- they we-n- sidling Long Island spuds for live cents pe-f pound, or $5. In per barn-1.At tin- ni-vt ston- In- found Alaiin- potatoes being sold tln*re at tin- rate- • T live pounds for nine oe-nts. provide-.1

II" s a iei that A n >oM o< • h County is now carrying a debt of AI.uim.uoi f ir f'-rt ilize-r. Tin- present condition o

tilings in the potato raising sections is vewy gloomy.

The fertilizer companies approve the organization plan as far as they dare to go. With tile1 approval of the Washington authorities, the hanks, the merclmnts, the busiimss men and practically all the largest growers it is expected to get much more- than the necessary fifty per cent of the1 acreage

WEIGHING LINERWhen you are told that tile- large st

ship in the w< .del litis a tonnage1 of i)6,5al, you re" zo that these* figures mean somethin; enormous, but do von know how they are* discovered! or what tlieyv really convey?

Tonnage* is of two kinds the* gross register and the* displacement. Tim- first means the cubic capacity of the whole of the interior of the ship's hull added to tlmt of till e'rections on deck, but not including the space1 occupied by machinery. This is calculated in units of lot) cubic feet. Thus tile* gross register of the White Star liner Ala- je’stic is 5,(555,100 cubic feet.

The displacement of a vessel is tlm aedual weight, which is discovereel by measuring the* amount of water that its hull displaces. The* hull under tin; water is me-asuicd. and the* amount of wate-l1 which would occupy its j lace is calculated in cubic feet. The result is divided by thirty-live*- or, in the; case of a ship measured’ in fresh water by thirty-six. Tints tin- tonnage dis­placed! is discovered.

This men hod was iiffrodueed by Ar­chimedes, the Greek scientist, who found that the amount of water dis­placed by a floating object is equal to its weight.

a prominent newspaper man to state his plans for the Maine National Guard, said:

"On becoming Governor 1 automat­ically became ( ’omniander-in-Chief of the State's military and naval forces and thus an added responsibility was placed upon mo. I determined to study the military situation in Maine in order to find out what the condition of tin* Guard was, what it needed and how I could help make it the most efficient National Guard unit in the country. Having been Governor for two years I have plans for the Guard and want the people to know them.

"The Guard is the State's first line of defense and I want Maine troops^to rank high in quality and be adequate in numbers. The people of the State will support a Guard of proper size if it is maintained at high etiicicncy.

“ In 1914 before the World War we had 1448 officers and men in the Guard. 1 took office in January 1921 and at that time the Guard consisted of 1:: 19 officers and men. Today we have 2228 officers and men, which shows an increase during my ad­ministration of (ISGf. This has been done by my orders since I have been Commander-iii-Chief

The newspaper headline informed me the other day "John D. Rocker- feller thinks more of his health than he does o* his millions.’’

These headlines were over a story of how* the old fellow relented and. permitted the newspaper boys to take snap-shots of him rather than b ■ de­tained to the endangering of his health.

John D. is going on 84 and is wise as they make them. He sees through the veil pretty closely to the time when there will he no more John D. and very many millions behind him.

But—-if this were any latter day repentance on the part of Mr. Rocker- feller this would amount to nothing, as a text.

The fact is that from early boyhood John D. has always called his health an asset and has always taken care of it. He led a simple life. When he get money he did not change his way of living to any extent. The money and s*°'v Regress up the hills to the camthe interests that he represented, ...... —j------ e—lj- .......drove him and he became acquisitive; but he did not eat any more and did not drink any at all and he did not go down the Great White Way, drink bootleg and stay out with the dancing girls.

Walter M. Reed,Guardian as aforesaid.

By his .attorneys, Rowers Math.a y s

whether they be civilian or military and appeals from every department are coming in for more and more funds. It is for the legislature to determine how much money should be spent.

“The cost of the Guard 1ms largely increased since the war. In 1914, $(51,766 was appropriated for this work, in 1921 there wtffe an appropria­tion of $117,639.23. This was the larg­est ever made for the purpose in peace

' times, and I gave it my approval. The present Budget Committee has been requested to appropriate $173,688 for 1923 and will probably he called upon to add to this $100,000 for the con­struction of two armories hut that sum does not include maintenance for these armories. These items make a total of $273,688, or an increase' of 132''f since I became Governor.

“The State of Maine must econ­omize in every department for the tax­payers burdens are overwhelming, and tin? military department as xvell as others must not expand their pres- cut activities.

“The cost of our military forces is mounting rapidly. When all troops are at their annual encampment the State pays over $1000 a day fo the soldiers in addition to the amount they receive from the Federal Government. $30,100 is asked for armory rentals and repairs, while the single item for small arms practice is $10,000 in addi­tion to this. The United States pays liberal sums to the Guard of Maim' and privates receive $1.00 a day for drill work, and this sum increases up the line to $6.67 for captains.

“ In 1914 we had a small National Guard and outside of that there were but a few hundred men in the State who had ever had real military train­ing. Today the situation is different. 31,000 men went from Maine into the World War and received military training. Most of these men still live in the State and they will make good fighting material for ten years more. They can be called upon if need arises. Several thousand of them belong to the American Legion. This source of strength was unknown before the war but should he taken into consideration in forming the State’s military policy. With the nation at peace with the world and with 31,000 veterans of tried loyalty, we all should bend every effort to return to peaceful pursuits. Good citizens have reason to sleep soundly in their beds, and need not he disturbed if the Maine National Guard is for the present not increased in numbers.

"I do not believe in compulsory or

universal military training, nor in great preparation for war. There is a large amount of military propaganda abroad in the land under the false name of ‘patriotism,’ and it well may be that most of it is backed hy the munition manufacturers. This propa­ganda is hard to counteract for it talks of ‘self defense’ and uses catch phrases to mislead citizens. It must, however, be discotilted and the sel­fish pleas of profiteers must not he heeded.

“ I have ideals for the future and believe in the gradual, mutual reduc­tion of armaments by tlie great na­tions ot the world. These ideals only can be realized after a considerable lapse of time and after public senti­ment throughout the world has chang­ed. Today we must face conditions in n practical manner. The World War revolutionized the military situation of all countries and removed the mili­tary menace of Germany. Today the world knows the strength of the Unit­ed States in men and material. Dis­armament will come hut meanwhile avoiding anything savoring of militar­ism we must make reasonable prepar­

ation for actual defense.“As Commandor-in-Chief of t.

.Maine National Guard 1 appreeia the responsibility that is placed up me tint! I shall not shirk it.

LABORATORIES ASECOND WONDERLAND

An iron telephone pole swinging from the roof like a giant pendulum hit a stationary automobile bumper and bent it badly. Then a derrick lifted a red hot steel safe high above a third floor roof and dropped it on n pile of brick bats far below.

The day’s work had begun at the Underwriter's Laboratories. Inc., a t<*pgy-turvy land wilder than anything Alice in Wonderland ever dreamed of —a place where experts burn and smash and break the creations of experts, all to make life and property safer.

The glowing safe, fresh from a f jrnace with a temperature of 1700 degrees, failed to break under the strain of the long drop, so scurrying workmen bundled it back into the oven for another hour’s cooking. If

J 'l survives that they will chisel, burn and smash their way into its com­partments, and if the books and papers there are found in good condition the manufacturer may attach an “Under­writer’s Laboratories. Inc." label to his product.

Upstairs a little automatic machine is sticking keys in automobile locks -three locks at a time—unlocking

them, locking them again and then withdrawing the keys. An automatic counter records its operation. The locks must stand the strain of 50,000 similar operations.

In the heat testing rooms flames aTe sweeping through the cracks of a wood lined, metal covered fire door, built into the brick front of a furnace. Nearby an attendant with electric ecording devices is studying what is

happening in the 1600 degree inferno behind the red hot door. Suddenly the entire furnace front, door and all, rolls away on an ever-head track end a workman plays a 2 inch fire hose over the glowing door. The color dies away. Inside the metal covering is a mass of charcoal, but the steel plates

ting plenty of outside air, and exer­cise in the open has advantages over exercise in the gymnasium.

The next question that comes to my mind is why don't they catch cold? Gold, wet feet; cold, wet trunks and bodies; cold wind and cold rain falling on hare heads, beating into bare face's and striking bare' legs almost idea! conditions for taking colei.

They are in the open air, they are m)t crowded toge'the>r, the*y are? ex- ercising actively. No erne1 e've*r caught cold wlie'ii e'xe'rcising as actively as the'se' boys a re-. They will stop before they are* exhausted. They will return to the' gymnasium, take a shower, dry off with a remgli towel, and elre'ss. By the1 time1 heat elissipatiem will have* remedied normal timse boys will be* elrie'el and elre'sse*el in warm eleithing.

People* catch cold when they arc quite' passive*, inactive and partieulnr- lv whe'ii they are* crowele'el in warm places. An ideal place* to catedi e-ole! is erne where the heael /one* is hot and the foot zone is cold.

Be certain eif this, the'se- hoys may not win their next football game1, but they will catch no e-olels.

The last questiem that e-emies to my mind is this; If the'y are* all high school beiys and then-fern* nearly of the same? age, why is there sue-h a difference in their height and we'ight. The1 answer is. they were* weiuiid up that way. Some* pe-eiple* are actually large'r than eithe'rs. Senile- yenitlis grow faster than others. Seime eif these little fellows may be* bigge-r than the present big fe-llows a fe*w years from now.

HOW TO KEEP WELLBy Dr. W. A. Evans

Exercise Blocks ColdsThis is a cold, rainy morning. By

this morning is meant the morning of writing rather than that of reading. A stream of high school athletes have been passing and repassing for an hour. They are dressed in running trunks, sweaters, socks, shoes and some, though not all, wear caps. The running trunks come to the mid-thigh, and the legs are bare from there to the shoetops. Some wear woolen »weaters, some have on only the body covering such as runners wear. Prob­ably those with sweaters are over­weight boys trying to reduce.

Mind you, a cold rain is steadily fall­ing and the wind is moderately high on this stretch—they are running along an uneven sidewalk and every now and then a puddle of water is en­countered—into which they go splash, splash, splash; their feet are neces­sarily wet.

As. I watch them several questions come into my mind. First, why are they doing It? The answer is prin­cipally to get endurance. My guess is that the distance they are covering is between one and two miles long and a few times around represents many jabs of those piston working legs.

The second aim is wind. If the heart keeps slow and steady and the breathing calm and deep under this exertion the boys are not liable to get badly winded in making a dash of 59 yards carrying a football. ;

Some of them are running in order to reduce, incidentally, they are get-

This is tin- Jersey grower's unique method of get­ting his seed potatoes. It has been found that a crop, planted late, so that the crops, while green, are killed by cold weather, produces the most vig­orous, healthy seed for the following year's crop.

Until a few years ago, it was be­lieved that potato seed could he pro­duced successfully only in northern New York and Maine.

MOTOR ROAD TO SUMMIT OF CADILLAC MOUNTAIN

Construction lias been started by the Government on a motor road to the summit of Cadillac Mountain in Lafayette National Park, the highest point upon our Atlantic Coast with a magnificent sea view. The construc­tion now contemplated will cover over 4,uo0 foot in length, bringing the road to an elevation of 519 feet above sea level. Funds for the construction of the remainder of the road, approxi­mately four miles in length, have been asked for by the Secretary of the Interior in his estimates for the fiscal yoar of 1924 submitted to the Bureau of the Budget, the construe-; tion to he completed in three years. j

IThe road as planned by the Secre­

tary of tin- Interior and tin- National i Park Service calls for tin- best and, most permanent construction and for a road of easy ascending grade and j liberal width. No such road as this from 1 he scenic point of view exists in Eastern North America, and great credit should bo given to Secretary Albert B. Fall of the Interior and to the Director of the National Park Service for this project.

The road takos its rise from tin- summit of Great Pond Hill in tin- vi­cinity of Bar Harbor and the views from it are superb from its commence­ment.

Superintendent Dorr commenced survey for this road a year ago last August, tin- work being done under the direction In Mr. Walters G. Hill of Bar Harbor, engineer. On June 27th of the present year, tin- survey, having been completed, was submit­ted to the Director of the National Park Service at Washington, accom­panied a letter which in part embodies the following description:

“The road shown. 3.Its miles in length, is tin- result of a study on my own part lasting over years and of a thorough engineering survey, entered upon last August under my direction by a capable and efficient civil en­gineer, who had had previous experi­ence under a State Commission and independently in Canada and abroad as superintendent of construct ive work Mr. Walters G. Hill.

“ The established maximum grade for the road is six per cent.; the aver­age grade is 4.to per cent. Tin* route taken has been as carefully studied from the landscape point of view as from that of good engineering, being

led over tin- right ridge by which

nearly two-tl: irds the height of the mountain, a hold spur stands out from the mounting ridge—with which its summit is level—upon its western side overhanging Eagle Lake. This spur the road circles in order to gain grade and not exceed the maximum estab­lished but it affords a view that in it­self would make such circling desir­able, were1 it not necessary.

“The summit of the spur, slightly lifted above the road that circles it, commands a wonderful view, as beauti­ful and scarcely less broad, except up­on tin- seaward side, as is obtained from the mountain summit.

"A spring of pure water, also, and excellent opportunity for water stor­age exists here, as nowhere else upon the mountain, and shady foot trails lead to this point from either side." 1

HILO: LISTENING POST FOR PACIFIC DISTURBANCESHilo, second city of the Hawaiian

Islands, which the Editor had the pleasure of visiting in 1921, into the harbor of which tidal waves swept on two occasions following the recent Chilean earthquakes, is the subject of the following bulletin from tin* Wash­ington. I). ('., headquarters of the Na­tional Geographic? Society.

“Situated on land which rises toward a wonderful background formed by the highest island mountains in the world," says lie bulletin, “Hilo is in little? clanger from ten or twelve foot tidal waves such as those which re­cently bathed its shores. But because ot its location on the southernmost

canoes.’ An excellent automobile high­way leads from Hilo through a ma- jef ic forest of tree-ferns to a hotel on the brink of Kilauea, about 30 miles away; and a supplemental road actual­ly descends into the? huge crater so that motor cars may he driven to the very brink of the bubbling lake1 of molten lava in tin* smaller, interior crater.

Beneficiary of Hawaiian “ Magic”“The highway continues on to

Mauna Loa from which have come the great lava flows of prehistoric and historic tiir.es that have built up Hawaii, youngest of the islands of the Hawaiian group, and make it still an island ‘in process of manufacture.’ The Latest of these* lava flows oc­curred in 1919 when a river of molten stone rushed down the mountain on the opposite side of the island from Hilo and plunged hissing into the sea. For many days the waters bubbled, while steam clouds rose*. Fish, boiled to a turn, floated nearby and could-be picked up and eaten by those venture­some enough to row into the hot wat­ers near the firoy cataract.

“ In 18S0 when Hilo was still large­ly a native town, its existence was

only surviving pi incess and priestess of their great­est royal Ii She took her stand a mile from me town and declared the flow would stop there, it did. There an* Ilawaiians who maintain still that Hilo was saved from destruction only because Pele, goddess of the volcano, stopped her fires when her daughter interceded."

T'HIS wonderful new incandescent mantlelamp gives more than ten times as much light asthe common coal oil lamp. At the same time it burns less than half as much oil as the old style open flame, center draught lamps. Beats electric, gasoline or acetylene. The new

Hanging Lamp

the most reliable incandescent mantle oil lamp ever made. Forevening reading, writing or sewing there is no light that can compare with the powerful, steady, white light of the Aladdin. Safe, durable, economical, no noise, no odor. Women and children operate it with ease. You can’t ap­preciate the great difference between the light of this lamp and the common coal oil lamp ’til you see it. It has all the good qualities of the high priced sys­tem but with the advantage of being as simple as the ordinary coal oil lamp.

You can have the most cheerful and best lighted home in your neighborheod by getting an Aladdin Mantle Hanging Lamp.
