LUGKEY Former Decatur Resident Writes Fine Paper Concerning Maine We have received and read with much pleasure, copies of “The Mornmg Dawn," written by the Reverend Leonard W. A. Luckey, Ph. D., of New York City, and formerly of this 1 city and county.

It. is a handsomely printed, beautifully illustrated and aptly written catalogue advertising in a unique and modern manner, the wonders of Maine's greatest coast resort. Bar Harbor, the "gateway of the Lafayette national park.” it is so cleverly done that the best critics of America have declared it td be literary classic and an artistic work of unheard of merit. The very finest paper is used and the tan cover printed in black and sky blue adds to the attraction. Pen sketches of flowers and berries used in the borders, and of the attractive home place close by the sea, make the claim that Bar Harbor is the “Naples of America”, stand out more forcibly. Rev. Luckey has sent us an advance notice of the work so that his friends here who so desire may, by making application and send four cents'in stamps,.secure one of the handsome hooks and as fifty thousand is the complete edition you should, if interested, fill out the coupon to be found in this issue- and send it in immediately. The Morning Dawn opens with a question designed to make you ask yourself "What and why and where is Bar Harbor?” It creates a desire to go on through the pages of poetry until you find the answer in beautiful words and leads you to see the natural wonders the Author has seen, feel what he felt, tramp the same paths, stand on the same heights, view the same changing scones, and enjoy with him Green Mountain, Bar Harbor, Maine.. It is a work of art. and. as stated, worthy of any effort on your part so secure and read. You will enjoy it, gain in knowledge and feel grateful to Rev. Luckey for making it possible. Use the coupon. Many of the smartest spring frocks are cut on very circular lines and developed in plain and printed crepes. Some of them arc worn long enough Io reach the floor. to Pierceton A bed cover 175 years old is owned by Mrs. Dora Spiegel, of Pierceton. It was made by her great-great-grandmother and handed down through the generations.

“SO THIS IS LONDON” The original company and production- of "So This Is London," George M. Cohan’s sensational success, which has been at the Grand Opera House, Chicago, for the past sixteen weeks, will be seen at the Majestic, bort Wayne, on Tuesday night. "So This is London" was written by Arthur Goodrich and was produced under the personal supervision of that wizard of the stage. George M. himself. It is now running in New York City at the Hudson theater, , here it has been ever since last August and is shortly to be presented in London, England, at the Prince of Wales theater. The object of the author, so It is asserted, in writing the comedy was to show up in a humorous manner the utter Idiocy of a strong nationalistic feeling and a further effort to do away with the animus between Englishmen and Americans. Os course, there is a love story in "So This is London" and quite naturally it develops through the fact that the son of an American millionaire intensely patriotic and prejudiced against anything that is British, falls in love with the daughter of an English peer. Both families are strongly disapproved of the match but as it proverbial, "love will find a way”— not. only do the respective families give their consent to the marriage but they Ibatn that they were entire-1 ly wrong in their distrust of each other. The company, in which t lucre, is not a single change since the be ' ginnihg of the Chicago run, includes. Mr. and Mrs. Cbburti, Lttmitdch Hare, Henrietta Tillman, Iseth Munro, Min na Phillips, Eric Dressier, Pacie Ripple. Reginald Carrington, Leonard Carey, Roberts Blakeslee and others. —■ ■——•—- ~ . » Mr. and Mrs. Robert Sovine. of Magley, were shoppers here today.

JUDGE SMITH PERPLEXED Difficult Question Arises in Divorce Case at Fort Wayne Fort Wayne, March 9.—"ft’s a pretty good case for King Solomon.” Judge David E. Smith came to that conclusion after having heard evidence Tuesday in the divorce case of Josie M. Heath against Clarencb H. Heath. The divorce was not the q test lon. The custody of four-ycar-eid Mark Samuel was the issue whit h 1 rbvoked the most bitter court fight in recent weeks. The question with Judge Smith, who was sitting as I special judge in superior court, was whether the boys’ mother, his paternal grandparents or the county’ board of children’s guardians should I have the custody of .Mark Samuel. Judge Smith granted a divorce on Mrs. Heath’s complaint but withheld decision on the custody of the boy. Ho will confer with members of the board of children's guardians before making a final decision. $ $ S—WANT ADS EARN—s—>—s !
