It will be a souvenir in years to come of school life, lectures, so cial functions, etc., particularly of the class of 1921. The staff included: Editor | in-chief, Bartlett Whiting, East North ! port, ’21; assistant editor, Kermit Nick erson, Swanville, ’22; business manager, Carroll Parker, ’21; assistant business manager, Tolford Durham, ’22; literary edit.rs, Ruth Leman,’21; Mildred Black, I '22, Hazel Nickerson, '23, Pearl Decrow, | ’24, athletic editors, Lillian Davis, ’21, Watson Nickerson, ’21; local editors, , Ruth Dinsmore, ’21, Oriand Orchard, ’22, !

Dinsmore last Thursday afternoon with a large attend ance. Miss Maude E. Barker, the retir ing president, presented the gavel to Mrs. J. C. Durham, her successor, with many good wishes for the prosperity and use- j fulness of the organization. The paper ^ of the day was by Rev. Alva Roy Scott, Ph. D. of Bangor, “A Study of Goethe’s Faust.” Dr. Scott ranks this master piece as standing in literary value with the Iliad, Hamlet and the Book of Job. Its composition spread over sixty years of Goethe’s life and thus became some thing of a record of the richness and di versity of his genius. The old legend of the scholar, who sold his soul, fascinated the youth, but when he completed it in old age he felt that it should be changed to be emblematic of the ideal of persist ent battle against temptation, and in this lies the greatness of this wonderful mystery play. Dr. Scott brought out with strength and clearness the lesson of the anguish and remorse of evil-doing and the reward of upward striving in faith, hope and love. During the social hour the hostess was assisted in serving tea and wafers by Mrs C. W. Wescott, Mrs. William M. Randall, Mrs. Fred A. Johnson, Mrs. Sumner C. Pattee, Mrs. Stephen S. L. Shute, Mrs. Robert P. Coombs. Are you a Mason? O. E. Frost, proprietor of Mathews mill, gave a supper to his employes and their wives in Memorial Hall, Wednesday evening. The ladies of the Baptist church covers were laid for about 100. This was only one of the many in stances when Mr. Frost shows his geuu me and manly public spirit. Besides the good things of the menu there was an ad dress by Rev. H. E. Dunnack of Augusta, a personal friend, also remarks by Mayor C. W. Wescott, Bert L. Davis, president of the Chamber of Commerce, r*. E. Roderick, superintendent of schools and other friends of the host. All who remember Miss Gertrude Frye, daughter of the Hon. and Mrs. Wakefield G. I1 rye of Belfast, will be interested in the success of recent books produced by her husband, Frederick O’Brien. Satur day’s Boston Herald says of him: “Frederick O’Brien’s “Mystic Isles of the South Seas,” just published by the Century Company, belongs chronologi cally to a period earlier than the author’s famous “White Shadows in the South Seas.” Mr. O’Brien wrote the book about eight years ago, and then laid the manu script away. After the great success of the “White Shadows in ^he South Seas,” he went to Tahiti,! again checked up his material, got new impressions, and re wrote the book from beginning to end. Most of the second writing was done at the Jack London ranch in California.” Miss E. Maude Barker entertained wha^ a genuine surprise party last * riday af ternoon for her cousin, Miss E. Frances Chase, and Mrs. Adelaide Chase Quimby, whose birthdays come April 8th. By previous arrangements all the guests bad arrived before the specials appeared and while pleasure and surprise mingled in their minds, the former predominated. There were live tables of auction and other guests brought sewing. The score cards also brought happy birthday greet-, ings Miss Melvina V. Parker won the 1 first prize, a pair of yellow candles; Miss Charlotte W. Colburn the second, a carv- ' ed wood card case, and Mrs Elmer A. Sherman the consolation, picnic spoons and forks. Assorted cake, collee and confectionery were served after the game. Then came the gifts for the vic tims, the hostess presenting Miss Chase with a bouquet of daybreak pinks a lid Mrs. Quimoy with a pot of pink tulips. Mrs. McDonald presented each with a handsome birthday cake. From “old friends” each received large bouquets of carnations, also confectionery and cards. Mrs. George F. Kent, Mrs. Fred T. Chase and Mrs. H. E. McDonald assisted the the hostess in serving. After ail was over Mrs. Kent very casually remarked for the sake of surprising her hostess that April 8th was also her birthday. Other guests than those meutioned above were Mrs. Abbie F. Swan, Mrs. James H. Howes, Mrs. Joseph Tyler, Mrs. C. 11. Walden, Mrs. William S. Simpson, Mrs. Ben liazeltine, Mrs. George R.

The recent Boys’ Convention m Portland has gone into history as a most | important event. There were about 1, 5u0 of the State’s young manhood pres ent. They were clean, bright and active youths and all carried home with them new ideas that will materialize in Chris tian and moral uplift. When the Belfast boys at the convention reported the events at the Baptist church, Raymond O. Young at that tune teeing the good the Boys’ County Conventions were doing as tributaries to the State Convention, ex pressed the wish that Waldo County might have one. Later he had a confer ence with O. E. Fro^t, a man who is first, last and always interested in boys. The idea was not new with Mr. Frost as be travels extensively over the State and lias been interested for some time in these County Conventions and taken notes on them. He has also been promi nent in t le Laymen’s Movement and has served the Maine Baptist Convention as. its president. Mr. Frost thought this was an opportunity to take advantage of, and began work in its interests. He per sonally called on about 35 men -nd all who did not have previous engagements responded, and took occasiop to say that they would be glad to assist in any way in the movement as they believed in it. The following were present at the Friday night meeting in the High school room: Robert F! and John R. Dunton, Morris L. Slugg, Bert L. Davis, Mayor C. W. Wes cott, Ralph A. Bramhall, Harry A. Fos ter, E. E. Roderick, Charles S. Bickford, Clarence E. Frost, Ben D Field, George H. Robertson, Charles E. Rhoades, Clyde B. Holmes, Ralph L. Cooper, N. S. Don ahue, Ralph H. Howes, Willaim K Keene, Elmer A. Sherman, V. A. Sim mons, Ralph D. Southworth, James C. Durham, Roy E. Young, Ralph H. Dun bar. Mr. Frost and all of the city clergy men then in town were present, Revs. G. C. Sauer, Charles W. Martin and Alfred C. Elliott. Important matters were dis cussed and the feeling expressed that the movement was one of the best and should be encouraged in every way. Mr. Frost was made chairman of the general com mittee, Mr. Foster, secretary; and Mr. Slugg, treasurer. The conference will be under the auspices and supervision of the Y. M. C. A. The ages of the boys will include those from 14 to 20 years and the number of members will be limited to 20o. It is .expected to be held May 20, 21 and 22. As all the towns in the county will be included the boys especially interest ed should signify their intention as soon as possible. It was left with chairman Frost to name five members each on the following committees which he will $oon announce: Entertainment, registration, banquet, guides, printing, publicity, hall and meeting places, music, reception, fi nance, recreation. The plans already made iuclude the prospective purchase of ; one of the finest residences in the city as : a Community Club house for the boys. Like the State Convention the County Convention is non-sectarian and far reselling in good results. | Are you a Mason?

April 26th has been decided as the date j when the Frank D. Hazeltine Post of the I American Legion will present its play, “lAre you a Mason?” Unquestionably ! this will be one of the best plays ever produced by local talent in Belfast. In making this selection the Legion has - chosen one of the cleverest comedies ever written and it will be a source of ■ d light to everyone to have the opportu- ! nity of seeing this play. The play abounds in humorous situations which keeps the audience in a continuous roar of laughter. Just plain, good, old fash ioned mirth provoking situations that are not stilted or overdrawn. The cast has been especially well chosen, each character being selected as particularly adapted for his or her part. Rehearsals are being held nearly every day under the direction of Mr. James Flanders. , Mr. Flanders is a new comer to Belfast, i who has had many years experience in amateur and professional productions. His many friends are awaiting with keen anticipation his initial appearance on the local stage. He plays the leading male role of Frank Perry opposite Katherine E. Brier as Mrs. Eva Perry. Miss Brier j is always a favorite and her many friends will welcome her appearance in the cast. 1 Supporting Mr. Flanders and Miss Brier is a cast which is unusually strong and well balanced. Harold Ladd and Mrs. Sumner C. Pattee play the parts of Mr. ; and Mrs. Amos Bloodgood, parents of Mrs. Perry. Mt Ladd is well known to our people and takes to his part with a naturalness that will make him an im- { mediate “hit”. Mrs. Pattee needs no - introduction to our public. She plays j one of the most difficult roles in her j usual efficient and graceful manner. ! M.ss Doris Clifford as the cook has one of the best comedy parts in the play. Miss Alice Wardwell and Miss Hazel Heald are daughters of the Bloodgoods and carry their parts gracefully as does Miss Elizabeth Doak, a maid. Ralph Clifford as George Fisher will give every one a surprise. Harold Stone as Morri son, Earle Braley as Travers and Albert ' Miller as the [Joliceman are all well se lected.

Tel. 228-5 Way Down East to Bring Special Orchestra to Bangor Opera House The soul of D. W. Griffith is in the music that is played as an important part of the showing of his master pieces The Birth of a Nation and Hearts of The World had their spe cial and selective scores, with some original melodies interspersed. Now Way Down East which is to begin a week’s engagement at the Bangor Opera House next Monday night, coming here direct from its record breaking run at the Tremont Temple, Boston, again accentuates the Griffith genius in fitting the picture and the music. For a week before the first showing of Way Down East in Bos ton, the orchestra that was assembl ed for the production had long re hearsals. Griffith himself was pres ent at a number of these and he was never satisfied until, just the desired effect had been attained. This was not only with respect to the music, however, but also with relation to the lighting and to the mechanical means to give the impression of real ism. And the music that was played represented many thoughtful hours on his part and also|some actual composition. “I consider music a handmaiden to the picture,” he declared. “I like to have some well remembered melody to typify various characters in the picture and I think that you will rec ognize this in Way Down East. The audience is particularly keen to catch the melody idfntifying Martha Per kins, the gossipy old maid, and as soon as that melody is heard there is a laugh or a smile, for it is known that she is going to be active in her amusingly malicious way. I have had some of the tunes changed in tempo or varied in form to fit situations and, as in all other scores for my produc tions, you will find that I do not over look that greatest melodies of the drama, Wagner. He is for all time and for all people, and in England today he is frequently to be heard in repetitions of his mighty music dramas.” Mr Griffith is sending Way Down East to the Bangor Opera House, with the same big orchestra that has been furnishing the music for the production in Boston the past thirty weeks, which in itself is a feature to be looked forward to with pleasing anticipa'tion. The sale of seats for Way Down East will start next I Thursday at 10 a. m.—Advt. What Is Osteopathy? OSTEOPATHY is the name of that system of the healing art which places the chief emphasis on the structural integrity of the body mechanism, as being the most important single factor to maintain the well-being of the organism in health and disease. The theory of Osteopathy perhaps can 1 not be more thoroughly or plainly stated than in the language of its founder, i Dr. Andrew Taylor Still, an “old-school” physician and army surgeon: i “Osteopathy deals with the body as an intricate machine, which, if kept ! in proper adjustment, nourished and c ired for, will run smoothly into a useful 1 old age. As long as the human machine is in order, like the locomotive or | any other mechanical contrivance, it will perform the functions for which it was intended. When every part of the machine is adjusted and in perfect ■ harmony, health will hold dominion over the human organism by laws as s natural and immutable as the law of gravitation. ) “Every living organism has within itself the power to manufa ture and l prepare all chemicals, materials and forces needed to build and repair itself, | together with all the machinery and apparatus requii^d to do this work in the most perfect manner, producing the only substances that can be utilized in | the economy of the individual. | “No material other than food and water, taken in satisfaction of the | demands of normal appetite (not perverted taste) can be introduced from the | outside without detriment.”
