years. From the figures shown below it will be seen that the great
est increases have come since the war and from all indications the
crime record of 1921 will far exceed all other years:

Auto Lenses Legal in Maine
In spite of the fact that* tho list of
automobile headlights and lenses as
approved by the Public Utilities Com
mission was announced when decided
upon, hundreds of people, judging by
the number of machines found by the
traffic laws officers with illegal lights,
are not yet familiar. H. A. Khorey,
Jr., chief of the Division of Motor Ve
hicles Inspection, said, in relation to
the matter:
“This department and its officers
| find no pleasure in hauling up' an au
| tomobile driver for illegal lights, but
the law specifies what can be used for
lights and therefore the others can
not. We are put here to enforce that
law, not for any pleasure in it, but
i for the protection of the public, in
[eluding those very drivers who violate
I the law. Hence, the department is
bringing to task all found with unau
| thorized lights. The faster that job is
;completed, the quicker the public will
be freed from that danger—which is
greater than many people realize or
believe. The highway police's order*
are strict and may to some seem un
necessarily so. but the orders are on
ly in complete unison with the law.
which was made for a purpose and we
are expected to see that the purpose
is accomplished.
You may have noticed that some
thing like 200 autos were tagged in
one day at the Lewiston fair for vio
lation of the lights law. That is.very
small compared with one of the Areos
I took fairs where in one day over WO
Illegally lighted autos were tagged
The rush for the proper equipment by
the offenders was something of a
hustle—but It put the S00 machines in
legal standing and made it so much
safer for the public.
"I wish you would once more tell
the people what lenses for motor ve- ;
hides are legal in Maine. We have ;
been authorized to erect a building on
the State camp ground where lenses 1
may be tested and adjusted. And this
last matter is fully as important as
having a legal lens, for the best lens
in the market may,be put in an almost
worthless condition by non-adjustment
for the machine to which it is at- j
tached. The acquisition of this test- ;
Ing building will be a great thing for
the automobile owners and wi-U sure
ly do away with a lot of the trouble
that is now found with auto lights.
The lenses which have been approved
for use in Maine are:
"Frown Reflector. Parab-O-Ught
Lens, Benzer I>enz, Bauseh Lomb,
Shnler Roadlighter. Full Ray. Fracto
Lltes. Star Diffusing. Clamert, Typj
A. Flamert, Type B, Controlite, Cona
phore, Dillon. Holloplane, Legalite,
Liberty. McBeth. McKee, National,
No-Glire. Osgood. Patterson Lenz,
Raydex, Saferllte. Suess Rib, Sunlight,
Sun Ray and Violet Ray.
“Motor vehicles equipped with these
lenses, properly adjusted, will have 1
no trouble with the traffic officers on
account of lights.”

Miss York To J>p Received
By Home Folks at Festival
Miss Helen Yorke, coloratura so
prano. w ho is to sing at the Maine
Music Festival. this fall, will be
given a reception by Augusta people
nj attendance, according to plans
which were discussed by a number of
local folks who are interested in mu
sic and in Miss Yorke. The confer
ence took place Friday afternoon at
the Augusta House and William R.
Chapman, the director, was present
and gave out some interesting facts
relative to the Festival.
When asked how the prospects for
the great Festival in October, ihe
twenty-fifth year, Mr. Chapman
said:
"Things never looked more en
couraging. This year will be the
most wonderful of all in producing
the new sensational singers of the
day, and I do hope the people of
Maine will appreciate rriy efforts in
bringing three young Maine singers
who have made their names famous
,in the musical world. Earle Charles
' Marshall of Auburn, tenor, Helen
Yorke of Bethel, coloratura soprano,
Phoebe Crosby of Islesboro, dramatic
soprano, have achieved recognition
and praise from the press and public.
Helen Yorke, fascinating, pretty,
with a bird-like voice that thrills
while you thrill, will surely sing her
, way to every heart. She has received
most favorable notices wherever she
appeared, and will undoubtedly be a
| member of one of the big opera com
i panics this season. Phoebe Crosby
is destined to be a second Nordica,
her beauty of voice, and enunciation
make her a delight. So much for
Maine. We have besides the greatest
dramatic soprano of the Metropolitan
, Opera Company, the one who sang
with Caruso in all his roles last win
tcr. the best young artist in the
world today. Rost Ponselle.
What a joy to hear the glorious
tones of her voice. Then to com
plete our opera list, and get artists
familiar with Aida, we have Genia
I', nariova the celebrated Russian
mezzo-soprano, Bocca-Fusco. the
great Italian tenor, and Fernando
Guaineri.' the baritone of the gan
Carlo Opera Company, who was
heard in some places in Maine in
concert last spring, and is rated as
one of the great baritones of the day,
also Raymond Otis Hunter, to young
bass-baritones, and our own Ernest.
Hill as Messenger. A superb cast for
ibis gr ot opera, whose chorus num
bers will be magnificently rendered
by our great Festival Chorus. Orders
for tickets should be placed at your
local Festival headquarters as soon
as possilbe. .

“The Truth About
Husbands” Is
A Vital Play
Vital in its every scene and in Its
stirring theme. "The Truth about
Husbands.” a First National produc
tion which will he seen at the Colo
< nial theatre today, is a photodrama
i that no one can afford to miss. The
j play is taken from the story "The
' Profligate." by Sir Arthur Wing Pi
I r.ero,- and is easily one of the greatest
i products of the famous English writ
! er. May McAvoy is the star of the
1 production and she is supported by
j a cast of unusual excellence while
every needed detail in the way of
scenic and costume backgrounds has
been provided.
The story centers around the life
of Dunstan Kenshaw, a wealthy bach
elor. who meets Janet Preece under
an assumed name. They fall in love,
he promises to marry her, but later
deserts her to wed Leslie Brownell, a
young society girl, and goes abroad
with her.
Numerous complications at once
develop and Leslie learns the truth
about her husband, whom she had
previously regarded as above re
proach. She leaves him. but a rec
onciliation is finally’ effected on the
death-bed of Janet
In lighter vein, but none the less
interesting, "Torchy’s Night Hood,”
an Educational comedy, will bo given.
The Burton Holmes Travelogue and
the Kinograms are also on the pro
gram.—Adv.
Charming Alice

Alice Calhoun, one of the most

strong emotional scenes and the most
satisfactory of endings—"See Amer

on Tuesday’s bill.—Adv.
The Plato Plate
The reaction of people to the lessons
of the World War has resulted, say
scientists, in "Strange phenomena."
A restlessness is apparent all along
the line of human endeavor. Many
people, to escape this, are seeking re
pose in the lighter forms of home
recreation, as in the study of new
found ideas, the playing of games, etc.
Entirely apart from their every-day
work these people are likely to show
an increasing'interest, as winter ap
proaches. Kor their entertainment
and instruction there has been in
vented the Plato Plate.
The Plato Plate promises to have
wide popularity. Tts promoters .are
assured from actual tests that those
who use the plate are liable to be
benefited by their investigations of
this new idea. The plate is simple in
design. It is easily assembled. It
adjusts itself readily to the mind of
the operator.
On receipt of $l.(Vl by The Plato
Mfg. Co. of 3S Court Sq.. Boston.
Mass., the plate, with directions, wull
be sent to any address by parcel post.
