THAT FREAK ST PATRICK FLY 



By Herbert L. Jillson 



jB^ -^^ said tlu- portly man, 
^^f^ lircakiiig the temporary silence 
Wi among tlie group of anglers 
gatliered in ilie liotcl lolihy. 
"I'm a eranU on 'freak' Hies, 
ami all as a result of my trip to Iron 
I'.oimd ]iond. where. In the u;iy, my 
ideas on tlics and lly fishing in general 
changed considerahly." 

"It was a day's journey hy spotted 
trail and canoe from Rig Fish pond 
where we were camping, and a 
hard trip for a man of my age 
and weiglit, hut Sanford talked 
Iron Bound pond and hig Iron 
Hound trout until it got into my 
lilood. Then the fishing fell off in 
Hig Fish and one afternoon after 
casting uselessly with one arm 
and fighting hlack flies unsuc- 
cessfully with the other for over 
three hours, I reeled in. turned. 
and asked Sanford. just like I'd 
never heard of the place hefore ; 'How 
far'd you say it was to Iron Bound?' 

"N'ow, distance goin' is something 
about which Sanford. like many other 
Maine guides, has vague ideas, so he 
steadied his dripping paddle on the 
canoe and nudit.ited long and deeply. 
" ■ 'Taint so fur,' he replied, as if fig- 
uring it out to a yard, 'if 'twant fur 
Black Jack mo'nt.a'n an' tlier trip down 
Alder Brook. Imt « lieii'l comes ter 
lishin' thurs no jilace in tluir state whar 
thur trout runs so large or rise ter thur 
fly as freely, an' thurs no season of thur 
year when they ur risin' as they ur right 
now; this verv minnit'. 




".S.inford knows linm.in n.ilure ;is hr 
knows the woods; he veils hardships 
and unveils attractions. The closing 
word> : ■'riiurs no si-.i>oii of tluir year 
when ihey nr risin' as they ur right 
now.' settled the question. That even- 
iii.g we made up our p.acks and early the 
next morning were muler w;iy. A stitT 
journey it was, lint that's of no con.sc- 
quence now. Black Jack is a mountain, 
no douht about that, with the trail 
seeking the highest peak, and .Alder 
Brook is well named, for we cut 
our way through the sticky 
bushes for miles before the lake 
gleamed ahead of ns in tin- 
afternoon sun, Imt Iron rjounJ 
itself proved a reality, not .i 
mvth. Down between high ledges. 
Alder Brook cuts its way into 
the little lake, scarcely half a 
mile wide and imt more than 
twice as long, rock liron) bound 
its entire circumference, with no 
visible outlet ; tlie w.ater, liecanse of its 
sombre rellections. app.arently depth- 
less; a place of strange, uimsn.il beauty 
and mystery, 

"That night we camped on a low 
promontory in a deserted trapper'^ 
cabin, necessary preparations robbing 
us of the evenin.g fishing, and we were 
lulled to sleep liy the ho<it of the owl 
and the weird cry of the loon. The 
rising sun found ns astir ;iiid it was not 
long before our canoe was cutting tin- 
misty surface of the lake. 

"'One thing is sartain,' meditated 
Sanford as he paddled, thar's been no 
one here fur vcars, That's thur

don't k n o \v 
liow 1 o n g. 
a n' if w c 
don't strike 
'em, I miss 
my g u e s s, 
that's all.' 

"I felt 
S a n f o r d's 
enthusi a s m 
in my finger tips as I trailed the bright 
flies cautiously over each dark pool as 
we began following the shore. Halting 
I took a pair of small ones from be- 
neath a sunken tree trunk and, round- 
ing a point, caught sight of a mountain 
brook dashing down, grey-purple, over 
a high ledge into a circle of creamy 
foam on the lake beneath. Instinctively 
something told me that this was the 
'pool' Sanford had said so much about. 
The canoe steadied some thirty feet 
away. 

" 'Might try er few casts in thur 
bubbles at thur left,' suggested Sanford. 
with a feigned indifference which I 
found it impossible to assume. The first 
thing I did was to reel in and reduce 
my cast from three flies to two. Then I 
made several bungling tries which fell 
short and heavy. The canoe shuddered ; 
I could see the expression on Sanford's 
face as plainly as if he sat before me. 
Reeling in I laid the rod down, and 
relit my cold pipe, with the canoe float- 
ing like an eagle poised above quarry ; 
high up, it seemed, on a depth of blue, 
the nearby shore alone overcoming the 
sense of dizziness. 



"My nerves steadied as I sent the line 
out again, yard by yard, into the cen- 
ter of the lake until I got the 'swing.' 
Then shifting, I gauged the distance 
carefully and let the cast down as gently 
as a falling feather among the bubbles 
at the left of the pool. Vaguely I saw 
dark forms of monster fish rising from 
the foam and fearing that I might hook 
two of these I whipped the line back 
nervously to avoid such a catastrophe. 
The foam assumed its normal aspect 
and for a moment I wondered if my 
eyes had deceived me. 

"I cast again. Once more the dark 
forms appeared, but my nervousness 
had gone and the flies did not prove 
attractive on close examination. Again 
and again 1 tried without result. Then 
I turned towards Sanford. Mystery 
was in his face. I changed the flies and 
cast again. The dark forms appeared 
'mid the foam, but only once. Pair by 
pair the flies were transferred from 
liook to leader. Some brought re- 
sponse, but none were taken. Then I 
tried varying combinations of the same 
cast without result and, listlessly, 
turned tlie pages of my fly book as one 
does a volume which ends wrong. The 
last page, the exhibition of freak flies 
— the flies 'made to sell' — lay before me. 
Without interest I selected the Yellow 
May and sent it out. Then the Jenny 
Lind and next the Scarlet Ibis, which 
I have found excellent for frogs and 
turtle ! Others whose names even the 
makers have forgotten, followed, one by 
one. and last, in hopeless despair, the 
most impossible fly of all — the St. 
Patrick. 

"One hesitates at the brink of de- 
feat. I felt the canoe backing away 
with a sigh of satisfaction, then, yield- 



1 1 r'Ai;i 



NoRTH\VARI)-IIO I 



ing to an inipiilso. let the rod suing in 
ail indilTerenl farewell. Iligli up 
among the foam the fly fell to be 
qnickly wafted back. Half a dozen 
monsters were fighting for its possession 
in an instant and a minute later, the 
reel was singing merrily as the line cut 
the water, far out in the lake. When I 
I'ound the brake the silk was slack, but 
the spell was broken. My nc.\t cast 
hooked the three-pounder which was 
(|uick enough to reach it first, and two 
others followed it to the net in their 
eagerness. One by one the fish were 
reeled in. as like as peas in a pod, until 
they numbered seventeen, all but tlirec 
of which had been returned to the water. 

"But the 'big fellow' was still in the 
pool. Time and again lie had risen, but 
always as a laggard. Resting for a 
while I smoked and as the sun sank 
behind the mountains, and the shadows 
suddenly deepened. ! cast the fly be- 
vond tlie pool and drew it slowly back. 
.A moment I waited, breathless, as it 
rested in the foam and then, with a 
rush and swirl, the foam parted as the 
big fellow left the water in a savage 
lunge, sinking witli the St. Patrick 
deeply imbedded in his jaw. 

"Twenty minutes later he was strug- 
gling in the net, an<l when we weighed 
him at camp, he pulled the pocket 
scales just a hair's breadth below the 
five and a half pound notch ; a record 
breaker for the pond." 



The Absent-Minded Fisherman 

"f have guided a good many absent- 
minded men," said Sammy, tlic guide, 
"but the sport I am witli now is the 
limit. About every other time he 
catches a trout he throws the hook in 




the li.-iit 1)0X 
and the fish 
hack in the 
water. 

".■\not her 
one of his 
a niusements 
is to care- 
fully n ot c Ii 
Ilie end of 
his ci ga r 
w i t h his 
k n i f e a n d 
put the knife 
in his mouth 

pens to get so far as to light the cigar, 
and the cigar in his pocket. If he hap- 
he throws the cigar away and tries to 
smoke the match ! 

"But." he concluded, "this all has its 
advantages because when he pays me 
iilT he is just as apt to get a twenty- 
dollar bill changed, put the five he 
should give me in his pocket and haml 
me the fifteen dollars change." 

.\nd Sammy strolled off towards his 
canoe whistling merrily. 



Loons Play the Game of Tag 

That loons play tag there is not tlie 
slightest doubt among those who have 
watclied these birds in the water. 
When you find a flock of them swim- 
ming merrily about in a sheltered cove 
all that is necessary to arrive at the 
conclusion is to creep up close and 
watch the fun. 

Presently some one of the group will 
swim rapidly up, strike another with liis 
bill and then the whole bunch will start 
pell mcll in pursuit of the loon which is 
"it." In time the cha.se ends, another 
bird leads, and so on, indefinitely.

THE KINEO YACHT CLUB 

It "Will Stand for All Time, a Monument to the 
Loyalty of This Resort's Admirers 



"C* VER ONWARD is the 
■*— -' pr o g r e s s of Greater 



^Kt^ KiiK-o and no winter in his- 
^rl tory has witnessed more im- 
portant changes, the new Yacht 
Ckih coming as tlie cUmax 
of years of growth in popular- 
ity; a monument for all time, to the 
loyalty and devotion of this resort's 
admirers — the finishing touch which 
gives character to the whole, like a bit 
of rare color well placed in a painting. 
Combining character, beauty and fitness 
in its architecture, pleasing in its dec- 
orative scheme, with both luxury and 
comfort in its furnishings, the building 
is one of the most complete and per- 
fect of its character in the country, and 
the wonder of it all is, how so much 
could have been accomplished with the 
sum expended, barely fifteen thousand 
dollars ; this sum raised entirely by 
subscription among the habitues of the 
point. , llffl 

THE NEW YACHT CLUB 

The most attractive and delightful 
feature of the Club is its broad veran- 
das, so constructed that they frame the 
outlook of lake, forest, mountain and 
sky into a series of beautiful panoramic 
pictures, the effect produced by deep 
cornices which drop from the roof and 
massive pillars which rise from wide, 
low railings. The main entrance to the 
Club is from the land side through a 
massive porte cochere and the room at 
the right of the broad hall, the spacious 
Club room with a monster fireplace in 
rock hewn from the rugged sides of 
Mt. Kineo, its decorative feature ; mis- 
sion furniture in Flemish oak and up- 
holstered in dark leather, in fitting har- 
mony with the soft green of the walls. 
Leading off from this room is a por- 
tion of the balcony enclosed in glass, as 



a tea or sun room, dainty in its wicker 
furniture. At the left of the hall is a 
grill room in the same gerteral decora- 
tive treatment, and, in the rear, the but- 
ler's pantry, kitchen and store room; a 
dumb waiter connecting with the floor 
above. Coat and toilet rooms are also 
located on this floor which has a second 
entrance opening upon the lake. 

The arrangement upon the second 
floor is after the same plan as the first, 
with a large assembly room for the 
women who will be given equal privi- 
leges with the men, at the right of the 
hall, with a grill room at the left, a 
card room adjoining, and cloak and 
toilet rooms at the head of the stair- 
case ; the decorative treatment in har- 
mony with the lower Ihior. Polished 
floors rule throughout and the selection 
of rugs, curtains, pictures and bric-a- 
brac has been excjuisitely carried out to 
produce an effect which is quiet, restful 
and delightful, with here and there a 
liright hit of refreshing color by way 
of contrast. A feature in connection 
with the Club of special interest, is the 
large brass Civil War cannon which 
rests on the shore of the lake at the 
right of the Club house, glaring grimly 
at the distant mountains, and which 
will be used upon fitting occasions. 
This caiuion was secured through Sen- 
ator William P. Frye of JNIaine by 
Treasurer Judkins, a special act of 
Congress being necessary and to over- 
come a technicality in the law, it was 
given to the town of Greenville with tlie 
understanding that it have a permanent 
resting place on the sltore of the lake, 
"west of the Kineo Yacht Club."

seasons pass, this land will be graced 
with the beautiful summer cottages and 
bungalows of visitors and surrounded 
l)y well laid out grounds. The road 
around the lake shore bring this col- 
ony into close communication with 
Kineo itself and the distance by water 
is so short tlial one can almost "crank" 
a motor boat across it ; the outlook 
down some twenty-two miles of island- 
dotted and niounl.ain-b.iekgronnded lake 
most entrancing. 

At Rockwood. "Kineo Station," 
directly across the lake, which has been 
acquired by the Kineo Company, the 
improvements and changes have been 
remarkable. Most notable is the large 



N0RTH\VARI)-H0! 



Pace 14 



general store which has been built and 
tlioroughly equipped and which will in 
future, be the fall, winter and spring 
headquarters for Kineo and Kineo vis- 
itors. The Hotel Rockwood. also 
located here, has been thoroughly refur- 
nished and remodeled in a way whicli 
will make it "home" to the many who 
come early or linger late and the vast 
army which anticipates from year to 
year, the spring fishing and the fall 
sliooting, or the thousands who flock 
here for some one of the manj- camp- 
ing, fishing and canoeing trips for 
wliich Kineo is a gateway and which 
open up through the West Branch of 
the Penobscot and its tributary lakes 
and streams. 

Several of the cottages have been 
remodelled, one of which will be the 
winter home of Manager and IS^^rs. C. 
A. Judkins. Evidences of the "new- 
ness" of tlic place have also disap- 
peared and the railroad station, steam- 
boat wharf and grounds have been 
greatly improved. The West Outlet 
camps, close at hand, now boast of a 
railroad station and a post office of their 
very own, and a real estate boom is 
infecting owners of attractive farms in 
the immediate vicinity. One enterpris- 
ing farmer has even gone so far as to 
cut a road through the forest to the 
station from his place, and it would 
take ten thousand dollars and perhaps 
more, to bu.\' a farm to-day which a 
few years ago. was a drug on the 
market. 

SPORT IN THE OPEN 

The sunmier's program of tournament 
events will be more extensive than 
ever before and a wealth of trophies 
will be provided. As usual interest 
will center in the annual golf tourna- 
ment in which cups are offered for both 
men and women, and there will be 
numerous special events, varied in tlieir 
character. Tennis is claiming increas- 
ing attention each year now, closely 
rivalling golf, and the tournament 
events arranged are along comprehen- 
sive lines which provide for all who 
frequent the courts. 



Rifle shooting now ranks among the 
most popular diversions here with 
rivalry for the championship trophies 
which Mr. Nathaniel C. Nash of Bos- 
ton, offers annually its special feature. 
There will also be the usual number of 
invitation .-md handicap shoots. Inter- 
est in trap shooting which has been 
growing steadily for several years, bids 
fair to be a popular diversion during 
the summer, and the annual handicap 
regatta of the ^loosehead Lake Yacht 
Club will, of course, this year have new 
significance with an entry list double 
that of previous seasons 

Baseball is now thoroughly estab- 
lished here as an entertainment feature 
enjoyed by all. that it has come to be 
regarded as a permanent fixture and 
early play gives every evidence that the 
team will be one of the best ever 
assembled. Head Bellman. James G. 
Scales, is again captain and coach and 
upon the nine are several who have 
been diamond stars in the past. 

SOCIAL ACTIVITY 

Social pleasures, too. are claiming 
their share of attention and the season 
promises to be one of much gaiety with 
the usual bridge tournaments, dinners, 
dances, launch parties and canoe pic- 
nics more popular than ever before, for 
the cottage colony is entertaining much 
and the New Yacht Club promises to 
be a social as well as a recreation cen- 
ter. Many pleasant affairs are also 
being arranged for the children who 
now form an important part of the col- 
ony, adding to its interest and charm, 
for Kineo is distinctly home to all 
who gather here. 

The success of the more formal 
dances enjoyed last season, and the 
various evenings of novel entertain- 
ment, are remembered with special 
pleasure by the younger set which is 
making plans to develop this feature 
even more fully this summer. Thus 
early there is talk of several more for- 
mal cotillions with the usual sheet and 
pillow case party and, possibly, a masr 
querade, not to mention straw rides

from time to time and an occasional 
barn supper at Ueer Head farm. 

Possibly this may be the last year for 
the old log cabin Kineo Club, roimcl 
which fond memories hover for so 
man\ friends, but there will be no evi- 
dence of the beginning of the end in the 
maintenance of the Club during the 
present season and many will entertain 
there in a quiet way as in the past. 

.\M0NC THE GUESTS 

The summer colony will be a large 
and representative one including many

done much toward spreading Kineo's

THE HOTEL WENTWORTH 



Under New Management it Enters Upon New Era 
of Growth, Activity and Influence 



F? AMOUS in two conti- 
*- neiits as the headquarters 



^Bp^ of the Russian-Japanese peace 

W I conference, the Hotel Went- 

u'ortli at Newcastle (.Ports- 
mouth), passes this season, 
under the new management of Mr. H. 
\V. Priest, so widely and favorably 
known through his connection with The 
Carolina at Pinehurst, and The Preston 
at Beach Bluff ; an announcement which 
will be received with universal satisfac- 
tion throughout the entire country. 

Few hotels have been maintained so 
faultlessly as those conducted by Mr. 
Priest and with his advent here a new- 
era of growth, influence and prosperity 
is assured for this hotel which has long 
been generally conceded to possess 
unequalled advantages and attractions 
in location and equipment ; the mag- 
nificent plant representing a well-di- 
rected expenditure of fully one million 
dollars. Results were what the late 
Frank Jones strove for and backed by 
limitless capital, results he secured. 
Outside and in, the equipment leaves 
little to be desired and the varied per- 
sonal tastes of the former owner were 
gratified in a lavish way. Few public 
rooms can compare with many of those 
he fitted up and the top floor dining- 
room of the annex is as fine an exam- 
ple of what can be accomplished along 
this line as there is in the country. The 
hotel is delightfully situated and the 
grounds stretching away from it to the 
sea have been preserved in all their wild 
and natural beauty, yet still having all 
the charm that the landscape gardener 
can give. 

MANY RADICAL IMPROVEMENTS 

In spite of the fact that Mr. Priest 
has been in possession barely six months, 
many radical improvements and changes 
have been made which add to the at- 



tractiveness of the place and which are 
but the beginning of the broad and com- 
prehensive plan which is fully formu- 
lated. Renovating and refurnishing have 
been general throughout the hotel, long 
distance telephones have been installed, 
special attention has been given to land- 
scape decoration, the garage has been 
fully equipped to meet the constantly 
increasing demands, the golf course has 
been extended and improved, the tenms 
courts upon which many matches of 
international importance have been held, 
are in perfect condition and a special 
feature has been made of the superbly ■ 
equipped livery stable by the introduc- 
tion of Kentucky saddle and driving 
horses from the stable of W. P. Mundy 
of Pinehurst, North Carolina. Special 
attention has also been given to the 
bath houses and the usual arrangements 
have been made with owners of sailing 
boats and fishing craft; auto hack ser- 
vice connecting with all trains at the 
railway station, a short three miles dis- 
tant from the hotel itself which rests in 
the center of a beautiful private park. 

OUTDOOR LIFE CHARMS 

Life in the open, as in the past, prom- 
ises to continue as the most attractive 
feature of the place, but, socially, there 
is thus early every indication that the 
season will be very gay. This happy 
combination of life is apparent in all 
directions and the general interest of the 
congenial company assembled here will 
result in many pleasant formal and in- 
formal gatherings. Afternoon teas, in- 
formal dinners and bridge are interest- 
ing tlie older people, with the youngei 
set occupied with rides, drives, bathing, 
fishing, sailing, launch parties and in- 
formal dances, and planning for several 
formal cotillions and the usual novelties. 

.-\t the golf club a varied program of 
tournaments will be held, and interest

ill tennis which always commands the 
attention of the entire hotel, owing to 
the fact that the shaded balconies over- 
look the courts, will be gralitied by a 
varied program. The saddle horses are 
in charge of a riding master and the 
hath houses are looked after by an 
expert in swimming : the morning bath- 
ing hour is an event of the day which 
all enjoy. The concerts of the orches- 
tra composed of members of the Boston 
Symphony, one of the most charming 
features of the hotel, and always the 
grand old ocean stretches away, until ii

The influx of motor tourists has 
broken all previous records, the number 
■ I daily arrivals ranging from fifty to 
one hundred and fifty, and including not

New York or Boston, but scores of 
others who come from the far west and 
south ; some for lunch, some for a day, 
some for the season. 

Many private yachts are putting in 
here, taking advantage of the excellent 
private harbor and the comforts of the 
hotel, for brief sojourns on trips along 
the coast. Among the first of these

YOUNG FISH FORGET EASILY 

Trout, Bass and Salmon May be Taken 
Over and Over Again With Fly 

It is not generally known, but the 
fact of the matter is that small trout, 
bass and even salmon, when rising 
freely, take the artificial fly again and 
again after being returned to the water. 

One angler states that he experi- 
mented with a small trout which lived 
alone in a tiny mountain pool, catching 
the fish every ten minutes for a period 
of several hours. He found that the 
trout would rise readily any time after 
a ten-minute rest, but not before, and he 
assumed by this that it took that time 
for the fish to forget its previous expe- 
rience. Very small bass have repeatedly 
been known to take the fly again within 
a few minutes after being returned to 
the water and salmon under some con- 
ditions rise nearly as freely. 

The general impression among those 
who experimented is that the trout and 
salmon rise to the fly believing that it is 
a dainty morsel of food, but usually it 
is pure curiosity which causes the un- 
timely death of the youngsters.

hospcak volumes for the per-

holds in tlic hearts of its thousands of 
friends, and the record June and July 
business is significant indication that 
the enlargement of the hotel has come 
none too soon. Delightfully located and 
providing fishing the equal of which 
cannot be found the wide world over. 
the success of the hotel has been re- 
markable from its opening up to the 
present time and thus early it is appar- 
ent that hundreds will be turned away, 
ai u>ual. during the months to come. 

THE XEW ADDITION 

Tucnty-six rooms in all there are in 
the addition, all en suite with bath, the 
lower floor enlarging the main office 
and also providing a children's play 
room, which is also used as a smoking 
room in tlie evening, a reading room 
and a writing room. In exquisite taste 
these rooms have been furnished, the 
tinishcd result possessing all the charm 
of one's home for such The Belgrade 
has been to those who gather there. 

The removal of the large writing table 
from the foyer enlarges this room very 
noticeably and an effective decorative 
feature has been introduced by the pres- 
ence of the monster clock which was 
presented to Mr. and Mrs. Hill at the 
conclusion of the house party given in 
connection with the marriage of their 
daughter last September, a perpetual 
reminder of happ- days never to be for- 
gotten. 

At the south end of the hotel a wide 
veranda overlooks a charming sunken 
garden, the central decorative feature 
of which is a grotto fountain. Another 
new and pleasing feature at the hotel is 



the intriiduoiion nf lioitlod I'.eaver 
Spring water and the serving of it in 
coolers in which the ice iloes not come 
in contact witli the water and. in this 
connection, it may be said that the same 
care and attention has been given to 
every department of service in the hotel. 
Xntable changes and improvements 
are everywhere in evidence. The garage 
and stables have been enlarged and sad- 
dle horses introduced, many new mntur 
boats have been launched, a number of 
new cottages have been built, golf 
course and tennis courts are in perfect 
condition, and the roads of the vicinity 
have received careful attentinn. 

THE season's diversions 

111 lib in sports and social pleasures 
the season well begun promises much in 
the way of entertainment wliich will in- 
terest all. Golf will be more popular 
than ever before and numerous tourna- 
ments will be held, among the enthusi- 
asts who are now seen daily upon the 
links being Mr. and Mrs. Robert S. 
Crocker. Mr. Frank Dudensing of New 
York, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Zuckerman, 
-Mr. George H. Bu/by and Mr. Seymour 
Carrigan of Philadelphia, and Mr. L. E. 
Grccnciugh of Boston. The tournament 
program will include the usual handicap 
as well as a more important match play 
event and trophies will be olifered for 
the best net and gross scores made dur- 
ing the summer. 

The tennis tournaments will include 
men's and women's singles and doubles 
and mixed doubles for a number of at- 
tractive prizes. Automobile touring 
promises to be more popular than ever 
before and the hotel is receiving its 
share of the motor tourists which now 
make their way into all portions of the 
state. Riding and driving are more 
popular than ever for the section round 
about is becoming more and more fasci-

nating as it is better known. Baseball 
will, in an informal way. provide an 
afternoon's fun for the entire com- 
munity from time to time, for the rivalry 
between the bell boys on the hill and the 
natives in the village is keen and what 
the games lack in fast play they make 
up in amusement and enthusiasm. 

Socially, interest will center in the 
many informal affairs which make life 
here delightful and bring the colony to- 
gether as one congenial whole. Bridge, 
teas, dinners, picnic and launch parties 
will be numerous and the younger set 
will make more of dancing and merry 
rumps than ever before. The new 



time when the fishing, comparatively 
speaking, is dull. The fun begins with 
the going out of the ice and the trolling, 
fly fishing follows it and may be en- 
joyed throughout the entire year, com- 
bined with it bait fishing with minnows 
and frogs, and grasshopper fishing 
which calls for the combined skill of 
lioth the fly and the bait caster. The 
trophies secured include the dogged 
bass, gamey salmon, wary trout, willing 
perch and monster pickerel. 

And the records? One would natur- 
ally suppose that they could be gath- 
ered in here like shells at the seashore, 
but the fact of the matter is. so many 




Library Iniilding will be a favorite ren- 
dezvous and always the cool porches 
of the hotel overlooking the mountain 
bordered lake are thronged with visitors 
who find joy in that sulitle word best 
described as companionship. 

AMONG THE ANGLERS 

To be sure, the angler is at this 
season of the year, backgrounded by the 
summer visitor, but there is never a time 
at Belgrade when the big rod rack in 
the billard room, which, by the way, 
gives fully as much character to the 
hotel as the mounted fish on the walls 
of the foyer and dining room, is without 
its split bamboos and there is never a 



fish are taken that one only hears of 
catches wdiich are exceptional. If you 
are an angler one of the first men to be 
pointed out to you when you arrive is 
Jilr. L, B. Adams of New York, who has 
been an annual visitor here for inany 
years. Much to Mr. Adams' annoyance, 
for he is a very modest man. you will 
hear that in thirty days casting with a 
single fly, he took over three thousand 
bass, an average of one hundred daily. 
You will also hear that without half 
trying, he took one day, forty-one be- 
fore lunch, fifty after and strings of 
twenty-six and fifteen on his way home, 
a total of one hundred and thirty-one 
and, mind you, Mr. Adams fishes only 



.>i Pace 



X(il<THW.\KD-Ho! 



with a single fly and only for his own 
anuisement. What mhi luar about his 
records you hear from others and this 
inforniation usually comes first hand, 
from the guides who know a thing or 
two about angling and anglers in gen- 
eral. Vou will also hear tliat Mr. 
Charles Mallory of Xew York, holds 
the fly fishing "record" for the present 
season, for a single day's fly fishing, 
with a catcli of one himdred and sev- 
eiity-tliree bass and that tlie next l>est 
catch to this recorded is a string of two 
hundred and eleven bass taken in one 
day. last year, by Mr. S. W. Ecclcs of 
Xew \'iirk. with a full leader. 



have alw.iys shared honors with the 
men T.i the uninitiated the familiar 
strains of "Fairy Tales" will float across 
the mind as the stories are related, but 
"facts is facts" and a sojourn at Bel- 
grade is convincing. 

"I'.ver lislicd here before." asks the 
angler when you first arrive. "Well." 
he concludes, "mark my word, you've 
got something coming to you !" And it 
tells the whole story. There is only one 
Belgrade. It is the greatest natural 
bass water in the world and it will never 
be fished out. Very few bass are killed 
and no fish multiplies as rapidly. l?ass 
fishing at P.elgrade is an experience 




THi: "KiauKii i'l.^ii" 
Later on. you will find that the record 
salmon for the lake is a ten and a half 
pounder taken by Col. S. F. Banks of 
Boston, the record trout an eight and 
three-quarter pounder credited to H. L. 
Boyd of Xew York, and that the big 
bass run all the way from four to five 
and a quarter pounds and that some- 
thing like a score of anglers divide the 
honors for the big ones. In the line of 
novelty you w^ill hear how Mr. George 
Mayer of Xew York, this year landed 
three bass and a pickerel with one cast 
of three flies; the pickerel attached to 
the last bass on the leader, and you will 
also find that in the records the women 



wluch no lover uf rod and reel sli(.)uld 
or can afTord to miss.

RANGELEY REGION PROSPERS 

Hotels are ^^ell Filled and Demand for 
Accommodations Exceeds Supply 

Never in history has the season held 
more of prophecy for the Rangeley Lake 
region. Hotels and cottages are well 
filled and the bookings for August have 
thus early exceeded the supply. Better 
prepared, also, than ever before is the 
section to care for friends who now 
assemble year after year, coming from 
all sections of the country and many 
parts of the globe. Rangeley still con- 
tinues distinctly a fisherman's resort 
and midsummer diversions never elimi- 
iiate the sport. The hero of the hour 
here is always the man or woman who 
has taken the largest trout or salmon 
and the stories you hear in the hotel 
lobbies are mainly those which deal 
with fish and fishing. 

In a way the Rangeley Lake house at 
the upper end of the lake, is an excep- 



tion to the general r. e and the win- 
ter's addition of a large annex of twen- 
ty-two rooms, all en suite, with bath, 
gives it more than ever the character of 
the "summer resort." The dining room 
has also been enlarged and the intro- 
duction of plate glass windows at the 
northern end give the room a delight- 
ful appearance. Automobile tourists 
are more numerous than ever before, 
golf, tennis and other sports are receiv- 
ing increasing attention and, socially, 
the place is undergoing very radical 
changes, many formal and informal 
affairs in the fine Casino adding to the 
gayety of the season. 

Improvements at the iNIountain View 
house, Mooselookmeguntic house. Bar- 
ker, Birches and Bemis have all been 
extensive and the Upper Dam and Mid- 
dle Dam are prepared to meet the in- 
creasing demands of the section. Pleas- 
ant Island, Bald iMountain and Pick- 
ford's camps and the various points 
which open up from this centre are all 
sharing the section's prosperity; the 
new Rangeley Tavern at Rangeley vil- 
lage supplying a need long apparent.

WHEN POLAND FIRST SMILES 



Vaguely You Recall W^hat Many Have Said and 
W^onder "Why You Didn't Comprehend 



V the 



^IBm- ^ the first time you vvon- 
^KK^ tl'-''' ^vhy some one has not told 
^T yon of its wonders and bean- 
tics, and so it is when first 
I'ohmd Spring smiles upon 
you. Then, vaguely, you recall what 
many have said and wonder ic/iy you 
didn't listen, why you didn't compre- 
hend, li'/iy you haven't come before ! 
Thus we miss many of life's pleasures 
and benefits — we are not good listeners, 
— we prefer to talk. As a race. also, we 
are disbelievers and. a few of us. arc 
not careful about facts. 

For just these reasons you hear many 
people who have never really drunk 
Poland water, assert : "Oh. it's nice 
pure water, but I know a hundred 
springs just as good." but you never 
hear a person who has visited the spring 
as it gushes from the ledge near the 
summit of the hill — as clear as crystal 
and as cold as ice — make such a re- 
mark. Or others, who have never vis- 
ited Poland, declare there are hundreds 
of hotels as faultlessly managed, but 
you never hear this statement from 
those who have visited Poland, no mat- 
ter how much they have traveled. 

RECORD HOUSE COUNTS 

.\nd so. as a natural consequence, the 
second week in July finds Poland's 
hotels with the largest "house counts" 
.if any in Xew England, and the de- 
mand for accommodations during the 
months to come nearly triple the supply. 

Better prepared than ever before, 
also, are the Rickcrs to care for friends 
as the result of a winter of well directed 
activity. Most noticeable of all are the 
architectural changes which transform 
the veranda into pure colonial, and a 
new and special entrance and reception 
room for automobilists which is ap- 



proached by a new and separate road. 
Inside marked changes have also been 
made which further emphasize the dig- 
nity ,ind elegance of the big hotel. The 
Mansion house lias also received its 
share of attention, a new boat house has 
been built, the tree dentist has restored 
the grand old trees, flower beds arc 
blooming, lawns are like velvet, and 
always there is the inviting shade of the 
grove and its forest murmur, and tlie 
delightful outlook which sinks down to 
gleaming lake, stretches away to forest- 
clad liill, rises to distant mountain and 
vanishes into infinite sky — gracious in 
sunshine, sullen in cloud — but ever fas- 
cinating; a picture of wondrous beauty 
upon which all love to dwell. 

WHAT THE SEASON HOLDS IN STORE 

And what of the season itself, what 
does it hold in store, is the first and 
natural question, and the reply is in line 
with the improvements — more of sport, 
recreation, health and happiness than 
ever before. At the stables blooded 
horses await the call of those who 
ride and drive, on the golf links and 
tennis courts the fun is well begun, at 
the lake are boats and bass and bath- 
ing, and in all directions well kept 
roads lead through God's out of doors. 
Socially the season will be a merry one 
with interest centered in the delightful 
informal affairs, suppers at dirt'erent 
points, corn roasts, and other gather- 
ings. Several formal cotillions are 
thus early being planned by the 
younger set and many a novel frolic 
will round out happy days. Dinners, 
dances, cards, afternoon teas, putting 
competitions and tournament events 
will also happily combine, claiming the 
attention of the entire colony; and 
always the Library awaits those who, 
from time to time, seek its seclusion

and refining influence; the annual exhi- 
bition of American art a notable one. 
The music is still upon the same fault- 
less plane, the appearance of The Hill- 
To f is once more welcomed ; in fact, 
Poland is the same, yet better than 
ever before, and hours, days and weeks

pleasant memory. 

THE STORV OF THE SPRING 

Truth, indeed, is stranger than fic- 
tion, and no story in resort history is 
more fascinating than that which chron- 



The land on which the spring is 
located first came into tlie possession of 
the Ricker family in 1793, when pur- 
cliased by Jabez Ricker, great-grand- 
father of the present owners. The then 
unknown spring lay in the shadow ot 
the virgin forest, part of which still re- 
mains, bordering a clearing made for 
farming purposes, and was seldom 
used. Sometime in 1827,' Wentworth 
Ricker, son of Jabez, was at work 
cleaning the land in the vicinity of the 
spring, and suffering excruciating pain 
from uric acid calculi. He drank freely

ic'.es the growth of spring and hotel, 
for they have moved forward, hand in 
hand, as one. For three generations 
the Ricker family has held "open 
house." first at Farm House, then at 
Inn and last at Hotel, and the knowl- 
edge of the three brothers in charge 
to-day comes by direct right of inher- 
itance, and combined with it, is personal 
pride, public spirit, generosity and lav- 
ish hospitality — a combination unique 
and perfect. 



from the nearby spring and the pains 
disappeared. Years afterward when the 
attention of the family was directed to 
the spring, this incident recurred to 
mind, but at the time of the cure the 
spring received no credit for it. .Again 
in 1854, the late Hiram Ricker, grand- 
son of Jabez. directing men engaged 
in work on the land in the local- 
ity, while suffering from dyspepsia 
and a feverish humor of the stomach, 
drank freely of the water, and imniedi-

alely obsc'n'cd the woiulcrfiil and uncx- 
pccti'd relief wliicli fcillowcil. He con- 
linueil to use tlie water ami was cured. 
This event marked the discovery of the 
wouderful properties of tlie water. 

From that time Mr. Ricker strongly 
recommended its use only to be scoffed 
at. He A-Hi-Ti' that it had cured him of 
dyspepsia but was, of course, unfamiliar 
with its solvent qualities. Matters ran 
along without incident until 1S59. .Al 
that time. William Sehellinger. a neigh- 
bor, had an o.x so ill and weak that he 
would fall while walking. With much 
ditVicully and as a last experiment. Mr. 
Sehellinger led this animal to pasturage 
in the field near the spring and in which 
the ox could get no water hut from the 
spring. The animal immediately began 
to gain in weight, finally got well and 
was sold for "good" beef in the fall. 
Previous to this incident. Mr. Sehellin- 
ger had little or no faith in "Ricker's 
Spring," as it was called, but this 
demonstration made him anxious to 
investigate for he had suffered i^r 
many years with a severe attiiction ni 
the kidneys. Having work near the 
spring about this time, be took occasion 
to drink the water. ;ind he continued its 
use for some time .afterward. Finally 
he went to Mr. Ricker and admitted that 
he had been secretly drinking the water 
and he believed he was cured. Time 
demonstrated that he was. for he lived 
to the age of ninety-two. 

These incidents marked the beginning 
of the reputation of the spring, .\fter 
the latter incident the spring was cov- 
ered by a rough structure of logs and 
Hiram Ricker, now thoroughly imbued 
with a knowledge and faith in the 
water, and a natural desire to spread its 
influence, visited Dr. Eliplialel Clark of 
Portland, Maine, and urged him to 
make use of the water in a medicinal 
way. 

Impressed with the absolute sincerity 
and unbounde<l enthusiasm of his client. 
the doctor yielded and prescribed the 
water, the benelicial results were 
marked and marvelous and Dr. Clark 
recorded them in detail. Then ;uid there 



Poland W;iier's reputatinn was estab- 
lished among tlie medical profession, 
and its fame begun. You have only to 
visit Poland to meet personally, scores 
of people who attest to fully as marvel- 
lous cures as the one Dr. Clark has 
written about , for they are legion. 

THE (^KOWTH OK "KUKKH IX.s" 

The story of the growth of the little 
"Inn" to the now famous "watering 
place," began in 1793. when through the 
efforts of Wentworth Ricker. son of 
Jabez. a highway was eonstructe<l be- 
tween Portland and Paris, passing 
through the Ricker estate. As a result 
of this came the lirst "Mansion House" 
in 1794, and "Rieker's Inn" soon be- 
came well-known, even as far away as 
Canada, and as it grew in popularity 
and size so did the reputation of its 
spring spread. In 186,^ Poland water 
had been so intensely urged upon the 
market during the nine years preceding, 
as to cause a greater influx of guests 
than the house could accommodate. 
Xeccssary additions were made and 
again for the same re;isnn. in 1S75. 

In 1S76 tile nucleus of the i)resent 
Pol.-md Spring llnuse was built, .-uid 
additions and improvements have been 
made, from time to time, until the mag- 
nificent structure of to-day has risen on 
the hilltop ; a hotel which acconmiodates 
500 guests, is complete in every appoint- 
ment, and with beautiful grounds em- 
bracing over a thousand acres. In 1883 
and again in 1905-6, the Mansion Hou.sc 
was added to and modernized to meet 
the ileniands of increasing patronage.

where north, south, east, west, lake- 
ilotted forest and cloud-flecked sky 
ilelight the soul and one may live in the 
lieart of the wilderness and still enjoy 
the comforts of modern civilization 
which palatial steamers and magniliccnt 
hotels provide. 

No cottage colony in America can 
offer the myriad attractions of Pointe 
au Pic which juts into the St. Lawrence 
opposite Cape a L'Aigle, another sightly 
pciint dotted with the summer homes of 
wealthy Canadians and .Americans. The 
rolling country at Murray Bay, running 
from the little village on Murray Hill 
past the golf links, to the superb Manior 
Richelieu than which there is not a 
liner hotel re.sort in America, is entirely 
devoted to summer homes. These 
range from a habitant chamiere which 
has been remodelled to suit the needs 
of the owner, but still retains its quaint 
old-world appearance, to superb homes 
of native stone and shingles or plaster 
costing $25,000 and over. 

.MLKR.W R.W'S SELECT COLONY 

The Manior Richelieu at Murray bay, 
owned by the R. & O. Navigation Co., 
is one of America's greatest summer 
hotels and Manager H. ^^ Patterson 
has under his roof tree many distin- 
guished people this summer, including 
.-\dmiral Bronson and family. Spend- 
ing their honeymoon at Tadousac are 
-Mr. and Mrs. C. VV. Wickersham of 
New Vork. Mr. Wickersham is a son 
of the .\ttorney-General of the United 
States and on a recent day's fishing trip 



at Lake Beloeil. took si.Kty-eight trout 
averaging one-half pound each in 
weight. 

The list of cottage owners includes 
President William 11. Taft, whose 
quaint little cottage, half hidden among 
the cedars at Pointe au Pic, connnands 
a superb view of the incomparable St. 
Lawrence. Close at hand are the sum- 
mer homes of Judge Henry Taft and 
Mr. Charles P. Taft, brothers of the 
President; General R. S. Oliver of 
Albany, Mr. Robert Bonner and Mr. 
Alfred Chapin of New York, Dr. R. M. 
Lawrence of Boston, and Dr. William 
Osier of Oxford, England, and many 
others prominent in .America and 
Canada. 

LO\ELY T.\r)0VS.\C 

Tadousac, at the mouth of the 
Saguenay river, is another lovely spot 
and one that attracts many tourists as 
the Hotel Tadousac and the fishing 
camps at the chain of lakes controlled 
as fishing preserves by the R. & O. Nav- 
igation Company t\vi: miles distant, 
make ideal resting places, and King 
salmon and gamey trout await the eager 
angler, or lordly moose, timid deer and 
demure caribou the sportsman. 

Mr. and Mrs. Willi.im Price of Que- 
bec have a charming summer home 
here where Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan 
Dwight of New York, also spend each 
season in company of their son. Dr. 
Dwight, and Dean Williams of Mon- 
treal and Dean Williams of the Cathe- 
dral. Quebec, turn about in conducting 
the Sunday services at Tadousac's lit- 
tle English Church. 

A romantic edifice is the little Cath- 
olic church at the right of the hotel, 
which is the first church ever built on 
Canadian soil and which, for nearly 
tliree centuries, has braved the blasts ot'

wind and storm, a monument to the 
hardy and brave sons of France who 
sailed away to establish themselves in 
a new country. 

WHERE THE PRESIDENT BEGAN GOLF 

The golf links at both Tadousac and 
Murray bay are among the best in Can- 
ada. At Murray Bay President Taft 
learned the game and was for many 
seasons the prime mover and the life of 
the club, and the tivc hundred members 
meet in social chat at the weekly teas 
held on Saturdays. The Tadousac links 
abound in natural hazards and are sit- 
uated on the mountain side in view of 
such superb scenery that one stops in- 
stinctively to look far across the river, 
to where Cacouna's faint line may be 
dimly seen against the horizon, thirty- 
three miles distant.

•THE BEEFSTEAK TWINS 



White-capped Chef Meditates on Hotel 
Guests and Their Peculiarities 

''Speaking of freaks," said the white- 
capped Chef as he hesitated with the 
butcher knife poised above the sirloin, 
"the 'Beefsteak Twins' who spent last 
summer here, have anything I have ever 
met trimmed to a standstill. 

"Why, they could tell just where the 
steak you sent them came from, what 
the critter was fed on, and how long 
the meat had been hung, and if it was 
cooked two seconds over or under 
'medium' it came straight back to the 
kitchen. 

"People in the dining room don't see 
nnicli of us fellows out here, but we 
come to know most of the bunch 
through names similar to the one I have 
mentioned. Xow- there was 'Lamb Chop 
Sammy' who bothered us considerably 
because everything we sent him didn't 
come from a yearling, but who in spite 
of this, would unknowingly gulp down 
veal now and then without a murmur. 
' "Others who bothered us nifire or 



less was 'Cantaloupe Willie,' 'Swieback 
Peter,' 'Stewed Prune Jack' and 'Baked 
Bean Bobbie,' not to mention the man 
who wanted sponge cake like mother 
used to make, ginger cookies such as he 
got at home, coffee with molasses in it, 
or fish cooked rare. 

"Yes," concluded the Chef, "we get a 
pretty fair idea out here of the people 
in the dining room even though we 
never push the swinging doors back and 
our opinions are not all based on the 
white envelopes which come our way." 



Speared Both Snake and Trout 

While spearing for eels in a pool 
near the Brink tannery, Harley Yeager 
caught a watersnake and a trout at the 
same time. When he had landed the 
fish and reptile Yeager guessed that 
they had been in mortal combat. 

Through the gills of the trout was 
fastened a fish hook which the fish had 
evidently Ijroken from the line of an 
angler. It protruded about half its 
length, the butt being apparently solidly 
anchored. On this harpoon the snake 
had been caught as it skimmed over the 
water. The effort to escape resulted in 
a terrific struggle, which had attracted 
Yeager. 

Yeager killed the snake, which was 
utterly exhausted and carried the trout 
home. 



A Woodsman's Feast 

The appetite of the woodsman return- 
ing from a long stay in the wilderness, 
is almost as voracious as that of a bear 
after hibernation. Xot long ago a 
party of them sailed into the Kineo 
store, and purchased freely, the four sit- 
ting in a circle on the porch devouring 
this menu in the following order and 
with relish : One bottle of pickles ; three 
tins of cheap sardines ; four pounds of 
creamy American cheese ; two packages 
soda crackers, liberally sandwiched 
with the richest and sweetest of con- 
densed milk ; two bottles each of bay 
rum and peppermint.

members of the Aroe Club who will 
never die happy unless they vanquish 
the baffling air currents that thus far 
have been able to protect the grand old 
monarch of the hills from the attacks 
of the sky pilots. 

The Profile house is distinctly a 
secluded colony of the first rank in 
which its creator has lavished both 
money and architectural taste. Maple- 
wood is another of the mountain's old 
and select resorts and at Bethlehem, 
hard by, is the great social center of the 
middle class with a summer population 
of nearly 3,000, and Crawford's, Faby- 
ans, Twin Mountain, Jeffer- 
son, Conway, resorts on the 
east side and west, have 
claimed old friends and new, 
all of whom are revelling in 
the joy of living. New cot- 
tages are being built, real 
estate values are rising ; the 
supremacy of the Mountains 
is unquestioned. 

All the refinements and 
comforts of civilization are to 
be found in the mountains, too 
— electric lights, of course 
(the largest hotel requiring 
five thousand of them to suf- 
ficiently set off the rich laces 
and costly jewels of its femi- 
nine guests) swimming pools, 
golf courses, tennis and squash 
courts, nurseries, gymnasiums, 
long distance telephone con- 
nection. Dancing, orchestral 
concerts, lectures, bridge whist, auto- 
ing, croquet, riding, driving and a long 
list of other amusements are on the 
cards for White Mountain sojourners; 
and at Profile Lake even sailing and 
rowing may be enjoyed. Camping-out, 
too, is coming to be one of the favorite 
methods of enjoying life in this delect- 
able region, and many a white tent may 
be seen gleaming on mountain slope or 
in deep ravine. 

Lake Winnipesaukee, with its multi- 
tude of shore and island hotel and pri- 
vate camps, cottages and bungalows, is 
having an especially phenomenal 




growth. Weirs, the great "cottage 
city" of the state, will this season, for 
the first time, have through sleeping car 
service with New York — an effective 
demonstration of Winnipesaukee's de- 
velopment. "The Smile of the Great 
Spirit" as the Indians called this superb 
lake, may, to-day, be translated as "The 
Smile of the Contented Landlord !" 
Motor-boating is one of the leading pas- 
times here. Already possessing one of 
the largest and finest fleets to be found 
on any inland water of its size in the 
world, the present season has witnessed 
an addition of fully fifty new power 
boats. Asquam Lake, near 
Winnesaukee, is famed for the 
number of its summer camps 
for boys and girls, there be- 
ing fully a score of these, 
ranging from twenty-five to 
tow hundred each in accom- 
modations. Winnipesaukee, 
Sunapee and Newfound lakes 
are especially favored by the 
fishermen. In the foot-hills 
of the mountains — and indeed 
in the heart of the mountains 
themselves — horseback riding 
is exceedingly popular, and is 
growing more and more so. 
It is difficult, in fact, to name 
any outdoor pastime common 
to outdoor America which is 
not to be enjoyed here, and of 
course, the air and the scenery 
that go with them are not to 
be paralleled this side of the 
Rockies which overlook the Golden 
Gate on the western coast. 

The list of distinguished people in 
various walks of life who make the 
mountains their summer home is a long 
and ever-lengthening one : Mrs. Grover 
Cleveland at Tamworth ; Winston 
Churchill, the novelist, at Cornish ; Sec- 
retary of the Treasury Franklin Mc- 
Veagh and Senator Albert J. Beveridge 
of Indiana, at Dublin; William Young, 
the dramatist, at Lake Sunapee; Frank

MOTORING ABROAD 

BY FR.AIMK.'PR.E'SBFLE.Y 




The time you spend reading this book you spend 
touring Europe in a 40 h. p. motor car with an experi- 
enced and particularly observing and illuminating trav- 
eler as your guide. It is a trip worth taking. You go 
through romantic Normandy, picturesque Brittany, and 
the glorious Chateau region of France, see merry Eng- 
land, the storied lakes of Scotland, the Emerald Isle and 
seldom-visited Wales. And there is a chapter of ex- 
tremely useful information for motorists going abroad 
— information usually acquired at a high price. 

Of double interest to everyone who rides in a motor car and 
next to necessary to every motorist who hopes to go abroad. 
It takes you to places the ordinary traveler rarely touches

A quiet man he is, with ;i serious, al- 
most sad face, hronzed from exposure 
to suns and winds of many lands and 
climes; kindliness and char:icler in his 
blue eyes. A delightful conversational- 
ist, also ; a relined. courteous, genial 
gcnlleiuaii of liheral education and wide 
experience, hut don't talk "Casey at the 
Bat" to him, for this is the niau who 
really wroic the famous poem. 

.\t times lie may he tempted by a 
mall circle of congenial friends, to re- 
cite ^lic verses, hut in ordin.iry com er- 
fatiou, you will hore Mr. Krnesi L. 
Thayer, wliose home i~ Worcester, 
.Mass., very much if you make extended 
reference to the subject. 

It was years after "Casey" hecanie 
"cl.issic" before Mr. Thayer's name was 
connected with it, and the author woiil.l 
have, doubtless, never cared a whit if 
claimants for the distinction hadn't 
suddenly begun to crop up here, there, 
and everywhere, and, perhaps, not even 
then, if friends had not insistetl upon 
his making a statement. 

Mr. Thayer then found himself in a 

'iilewliat unique position of being 
called upon to "prove it." ;iiid as a re- 



sult, he did .1 few things in a quiet but 
lirni way. through his gentle lawyer, to 
some three or four of the "Casey" 
I'.ikes. with the result that llie true 
.mtliorship of the poem is now pretty 
generally known. 

The troul)le beg.'in when the "scissors 
editor" of 77ic A'cii' i'urh- Sun clipped 
the poem from The San Francisco lix- 
oniincr in wliieli ii w.is originally 
printed, signed "hi. L. T.." itsing only 
the last eight \erses "to fill." Then 
somebody supplied the missing live 
verses from memory .ind somebody else 
gill li.ild of tliese live verses and sup- 
plied llie last eight in the same man- 
ner: the results, coniliinalioiis wonder- 
ful to hehidd ! 

Xext DeW'olf llopjier began recit- 
ing the original "Casey" with phenome- 
nal success and everybody began to ask: 
"Who wrote it?" "I didn't," was the 
sum and suh.stance of Mr, Hopper's re- 
ply and the ".•mtliors" sprang up like 
iiuishrooms. Then Mr. Thayer was lo- 
c;ited. consented to give out an author- 
i;:ed version of the poem, and "Casey" 
blossomed forth in printer's ink and 
color, pamphlet ;iiid hook. p:iper cover

of "Casey" to The Baseball Ma>^a:inc.

1885, I wrote jol<es, composed edito- 
rials, and designed drawings, putting in 
much faithful time. During my junior 
year I was president of The Lamtioon. 

"At the time The Lciinfoon had a 
splendid corps of men, numbering in the 
list F. H. Briggs of Springfield, Mass., 
one of the best men that ever graced 
tlie staff ; Eugene Lent of San Francis- 
co, now a prominent lawyer ; Conway 
Felton of Philadelphia, a great-nephew 
of the president of Harvard, Corne- 
lius Conway Felton ; W. W. Baldwin 
of Baltimore, who was assistant secre- 
tary of 'State under Cleveland; Tommy 
Sanborn of Concord, son of Frank 
Sanborn, poet ; Sanuiel E. Winslow of 
Worcester, the well-known skate man- 
ufacturer, and .\dams Crocker of 
I'itchburg, Mass. 

"After grailualiiiii I went abroad for 
a year, and on returning had nothing 
special to do. Meanwhile Hearst had 
gone back to San Francisco and taken 
charge of Thr P.xain'incr. and was 
making things pretty lively, for he was 
just beginning to display his marvelous 
ability. At his request I went to that 
city and became a member of the staff. 
There I found Briggs drawing pictures 
and comics, and Lent writing special 
articles. To me was assigned the task 
of doing editorials, specials, and report- 
ing. I fear that my work was more 
varied than I was versatile. 

"But still I did not have any intention 
of taking up newspaper work seriously. 
I had gone to the coast with a view of 
seeing the country, and for a change 
rather than learning the newspaper 
business. 

"In the fall of 188/ I began to read 
VV. S. Gilbert's Bab ballads, and decided 
that I could do something in that line. 
I wrote a poem for each Sunday issue 
of Tlic E.vainincr for three months. Not 
being particularly robust, however, my 
health failed and in h^ebrnary, 1888, I 
went to my brother's mill in Worcester, 
!Mass., for lack of anything else to oc- 



cupy my attention. 1 think that 'Casey 
at the Bat' was the last of these at- 
tempts of mine. 

"For a year and six months I wrote 
\oluminously for The San Francisco 
Examiner, turning off everything from 
editorials to obituaries. The demand 
was heavy, and the competition nil. 
What impression I may have had on 
the Pacific coast slope I have never 
been able to gauge. The great, lumi- 
nous and unforgettable fact in connec- 
tion with it was that it paid me $S a 
column. However, at the end of a year 
and six months my health broke and I 
had to return East. 

"I was never a baseball fan, and 
never was interested in any degree in 
the game, and it was oidy on account 
of my friend, classmate and associate 
on Tlic Lainf'oun, Sam Winslow, that I 
became interested. Naturally, as Sam 
was captain of the nine — one of the best 
nines that Harvard ever had — nne that 
went through a season without a de- 
feat — that I felt stirred. I scri])bled 
'Casey' during May, 1888, and it was 
printed in Tlic Examiner on Jime 3, 
1888. 

"Now prior to the puljlication of 
'Casey' in the Examiner no one ever 
heard of 'Casey' and those that claim 
tlie authorship have lieen singularly un- 
able to produce a paper containing that 
bit of verse. Tlie E.xaniiner was not 
then read much in the East, so the 
verse did not at first get much of a cir- 
culation. The Nezv York Sun re- 
printed a portion of the poem — the last 
eight stanzas, not using the rest owing 
to lack of space. 

"There have been made attempts to 
fill in the first five stanzas that did not 
appear in The Snn. but most of them 
have been manifestly inferior to the re- 
mainder of the verses. A reading of 
the poem in its entirety cannot but con- 
vince one, I am prone to believe, but 
that they form one continuous whole, 
and the man who wrote the first five is 
also the author of the remaining eight. 

"I evolved 'Casey' from the situation 
I had seen so often in baseball — a crack

batsman coming to the Iiat with the 
bases tilli-il. and llu-ii fallen down, 
h'veryoiie well knows wliat immense 
\eitcmenl there is wlien the situation 
■I curs in baseball, especially when one 
.>l the best batsmen of the team conies 
up. The enthusiasm is at fever heat, 
and if the batsman makes good the 
crowd goes wild; while, if the batsman 
strikes out as 'Casey' did. the reverse is 
the case and the silence that prevails is 
almost appalling — .nul very often the 
army of the disappointed cannot re- 
frain from giving vent to their feelings. 
"In 'S5 Winslow's great Harvard 
u.im pulled out gaiue after game in 
grand style when the issue .seemed lost ; 
W'iuslow. who was a born leader, never 
letting up, but urging hi- men on to re- 
newed elTort and with splendid results. 

"It was a long lime before the 'Casey' 

verses became known. When they aji- 

jieared in The San Fianrisco Ilxamincr 

they were signed !■". L. 1". 'Ihey were 

■■laimed by one John Quinlan Murphy 

1' St. Louis. We looked up this party 

,inil found he had died. Then there 

was a V'.alentine of Siou.x City, Xeh. 

\nother writer I1.1S appeared in the East 

:i- a claimant. It is asserted that the 

.rses were printed in a .V<Ti' York 

^forliiig ll'cck-ly in 1886. Were that 

I, it is strange indeed that tliey did 

iiot attract public attention, that they 

were not copied as were those printed 

in 77ir lixamincr. According to this 

claimant almost two years intervened 

from the appearance of his verses and 

my own. I never knew of the exist- 

ncc of the Xew York sporting paper. 

"The publicity of the poem, made 

through its recitation by Hopper and 

the declaration of the author caused 

nic to receive many requests for the 

•riginal and correct text. For years I 

■ver went anywhere that I was not 

■ f|uested to recite 'Casey.' This was 

■iiuinucd to such an extent that it 

1 enied like taking a rise out of me. 

Ml my classmates were aware of the 

tact that I wrote 'Casey' and they 

-couted the idea that anyone else 

liould claim the authorship. 



"I dill \h< more liter;ir> work after 
this nnli! i.Sg(). Then I received an 
urgent call to go to San Francisco 
which 1 did not accept. I did go to 
Xew York for a short time and wrote 
four l)allads for lite Journal. The 
best was '.Murphy's Pig,' a story of the 
Xew ^'llvk piditical leader of tliat day. 
l!ut these did not e.itch on and were 
doomed to the ipiick ohli\iiin tli.it 
meets newspaper verse. 

" 'Casey at the Hat' has oeen priiUed 
in hook, in many editions, and with 
v.irying illustr.ations, and 1 h.ave gener- 
ally been given the croht i>f tin- .luthor- 
sliip. DeW'idf Hopper and 1 became 
quite good friends through my accred- 
ited autborsliip of the poem tli.al he was 
reciting to eluering linu-i>" 

Mk. TnA\Kl<'s OTlll-K I>OKM.S 

Those who know .\lr. Tliayer well 
realize that "Casey" is by no means his 
best, but ;l11 attempts to bring together 
a eolleetioii of the verse he has written 
have been unsuccessful for Mr. Thayer 
i- not interested in the nnderlaking and 
it would he ini|)Ossible to do it witlujut 
his coopertition as nearly all of them 
were written for news|)apers and have 
been lost to view as the years have 
multiplied. 

Mr. Th;i\er is a lover of outdcHU- life 
and spends nuich of his time abroiid. 
devoting his leisure largely to art and 
literature. Init not at all interested in 
its commercitil side for his income is 
ample to gratify his tastes, and Kineo 
during the summer season, has been his 
choice I'or sever, il years iiast.

liaiidicap for women for a cosily and 
liandsonic silvi-r tropliy— a miniature

distance was seven miles over a trian- 
gular course laid out directly in front of 
the point. <l.irtini; from ibe barlior and 
Uadiii.i; to llic W'csi oulKi. ilicnce to 
Cowan's Cove and back to tbe briak- 
water. The special condition wa^ tliat

ind tbat no man, but an engineer, be 
permitted on board. Great excitement 
prevailed among the fair sex from the 
moment tbe contest was anni>unced and 
it has abated but little since its clo.se. 
The day was perfect .md hniulrcds from 
all sections of the lake thronged tbe 
pr)int, tbe V;icbt I'lub verandas ijay with 
life .iiid bright color. 

The handicaps were so llgured that 
dl boats wouhl. theoretically, cross the 
inish line at the same time, and he- 
■ nise of this, tbe 1 hinky Dory with the 
longest time allow;mee. was the first to 
get under way and the fastest, the Nec- 
r.ana, last: but it so happened that the 
^low boat held the lead from start to 
linish, crossing the line eleven minutes 
and nineteen seconds ahead of the Wiss- 
liickon and taking lifty-nine minutes 
ind twenty-four seconds for the journey, 
MXteen niinutes and forty-two seconds 
better in time than was made in tlie pre- 
liminary trial heat and which tlirew the 
Mnilicaps somewhat out of b.il.mcc'. In

H the opening ball game of the

favor of the home team to the tune of 
twentv-five to nothing and seven to

The redeeming feature of the first 
game w.is the brilliant play of the local 
team, h'.lkstone, the Dartmouth pitcher, 
striking onl twelve men .uid being 
found for Iml tliree hits, the local tr.ini

Fellows scored five runs and cracked 
out a homer, while the field both in and 
out. played an errorless game, with one 
excusable exception, to a total of ten 
for their opponents. The spectacular 
feature of the afternoon was the catch 
of a high liner liy Capt. Scales at 
short. 

In the second game the visiting 
team rallied somewhat. 1>ut was no 
match for tlie "lieH-hops." Ryan, the 
University of Maine's fast pitcher, was 
the star of the afternoon, striking out 
fifteen men and having l)Ut two hits re- 
corded against him. Ralston of the vis- 
iting team, had six strike-ouls to his 
credit, the only run secured by his club 
mates being on an error at second.

BLUE SKIES AT BELGRADE 

In Natural Beauty of Place Lies Charm "Which Calls 
Friends Back Season After Season 




Sl'RICLV the sky was never 
so ])liie or piled so liigli 
will) lleeoy summer clouds, tlie 
wooded mountain slopes never 
so restful and refreshing, the 
hike never so fascinating in 
broad expanse and sparkling glimpses, 
the stretching greensward never so vel- 
vety, as at the present moment at Bel- 
grade, and in this delightful picture, lies 
the fascination which brings old friends 
back to this charming spot year after 
year. To be sure tliere are fish to catch, 
golf and tenuis to play, rides, drives and 
boating to enjoy, old friends to greet, 
social pleasures to round out perfect 
days, material comforts to add to the joy 
of life; but the fact remains that it is 
contact with nature which lingers long- 
est — the liackground which glorifies all! 

SI'OKT.S AND SOITAI. PLEASURES 

The formal opening of the baseball 
season, Saturday, with a game between 
tlie "Guides and Guests," was enjoyed 
by the entire community, hotel guests, 
cottagers and villagers all joining in for 
an afternoon's fun and while the guests 
IkiiI mailers pretty much their own way, 
winning liy a score of eighteen to six, 
the manner in which the sphere was 
pounded i>ver the landscape and the en- 
thusiasm with which it was chased, 
provided wli.il u.is lacking in fast play. 

"VVIty. I ilidn'l think baseball was at 
all like polo." said a young woman who 
is fond of the latter game, "but it seems 
to be very much like it and I think those 
guides would get along ever so nuicli 
better if they had ponies. I wonder 
why ihey don"t get them." 

TIu- next game of the series is booked 
for to-day with the Oakland and what 
is said to be a fast team, and much pre- 
liminary practice has been done here in 
anticipation of the struggle. 



Socially the hotel is very much oc- 
cupied with dancing, young and old 
joining in the hops which now fill in al- 
most every evening of the week, with 
never a dull moinent from the opening 
"Paul Jones" circle to the closing 
"Home Sweet Home" waltz: the cool 
verandas an inviting retreat between 
dances. There is already talk of an in- 
formal cotillion, sheet and pillow case 
party, or masquerade. 

Cool July days have made the fishing 
e.xcellent and all sorts of lures have 
proved attr^ctive to the liass while many 
big trout and salmon have been taken ; 
Mr. llugh T. Boyd of New York, easily 
the lion of the hour with a seven and a 
half pound salmon anil two four-pound 
trout to his credit. 

One of the merry affairs of the week 
was a beefsteak camp supper on the 
shores of the lake, arranged by Mr. 
Llovd .\llen of Boston. 



Many informal dinners are being en- 
joyed and cards arc rounding out leisure 
hours during both day and evening. 

MOTOR BO.VT EXCURSIONS POPULAR 

One of the many pleasant diversions 
here are the motor boat excursions 
around Great Lake. "Passage" can be 
secured on the mail boat "sailing" every 
afterno'on at one and returning at five 
o'clock, the fare for the round trip 
"nominal." The boat "puts in" at all 
the camps on the lake, delivering and 
receiving mail, thus affording a close 
view of the attractive cottages and pri- 
vate camps. Among some of the large 
puldic camps are "Hillside," "Joyce's," 
"Pine Beach" and "Pine Island.'" The 
latter is one of the most popular boys 
camps about here and many of the 
guests at The Belgrade have sons here 
— finding it a happy solution of a soine-

Probably the most atraclive private 
camp is that of Mr, J. R. iNiirehild of 
Xew York. This liig hungah'W lils into 
anil looks a part of its setting, which is 
the true charm :>\ this rustic architec- 
ture. A glimpse i>f the bright red cur- 
tains through the windows makes one 
sure of the cozy comfort of tlie interior, 
.\nother pretentious place is that of Mr.

wliere gay hammocks and bright, fluffy 
cushions stand oui in pretty contrast

ing motoring in the While 
.Mountains a delight of the 
keenest sort and along the main thor- 
oughfares in the White Hills, "old 
Dobbin" is so seldom met that the ani- 
mal has become almost as great a curi- 
osity as a "Dodn." l-'rom a saucy little 
buckboard spurting out clouds of 
steam, to a great. Oo II. P. .Mercedes or 
a French limousine, there is every 
known variety of motors from common 
garden variety to the rare exotic run- 
ing up into the tens of thousands in 
price. Rut whatever make the car, its 
occupants seem to be ha])py in skim- 
ming over the liar<l, sninolh roads, 
drinking in the wine nf iIk- mounlaiii 
ozone and admiring \\ilh .'ill llieir eyes, 
the .glorious, ever-changing scenery of 
the "Switzerland of .Xmcrica." Travel 
in fhis way has increased to so great 
an extent that in three solid pages of 
arrivals at one of the large White 
.Mountain hotels la>-t week, only half a 
dozen had come by rail. The Ideal 
Tour. Ruffner Tour and various guide 
book routes give sufficient variety for 
the most exacting and there are always 
fascinating side roads to explore — lead- 
ing, perhaps, to some little mountain 
hamlet — or, again, into a stone wall or 
make fence! The large hotels all have 
ample garage acconnnodations and re- 
pair .shops, and gasoline may be bought 
almost anywhere, along with li.iir pins, 
talcum powder, curve lul and lish 
hooks !

FLY FISHING AT TURNKR 

"A rugged wilderness stream, up which you pole,

FLY FISHING AT TURNER 

Ever Heard of It ? 




possibility is, 
oil must confess, that 
your first trip to Turner pond 
was mainly to convince ynur- 
~rlf that the stories \cni had 
lu-ard ahout il were not so ! 
"It's ilio only place I know of," quoth 
)iiur friends, "wliere trout rise to the 
rty every day in the season, every hour 
of the day and under all conditions." 
\nd, invariably, the only reply you got 
o your indignant protest was a dis- 
nuested "Guess you've never heard of 
Turner !" The fact that the terse re- 
mark went home, the desire for revenge, 
to come back with: "Yes, I've heard of 
Turner" — to run to earth another fish- 
ing romance — is in reality. what 
prompts most anglers to make the trip. 
liut Turner happens to be "the excep- 
tion which proves the rule." and thcre- 
''\ hangs a story. 



A rugged wilderness stream up which 
you pole, paddle or walk, leads to Tur- 
ner; the pond itself lying in the niches 
of the mountains "over yonder." .\nd I 
may as well admit in opening that 
'Turner" — while it is the real name of 
just such a trout pond — is used here 
only as a synonym for a dozen or more 
of just such ponds, scattered through- 
out the Xorthern Maine wilderness. 
If you desire specific information ask 
almost any Moosehead guide, or some 
angler who's "heard of Turner." 

The trip in is not a hard or tedious 
one; a few hours, a day. or a few days, 
mavbe ; but this doesn't count and 



you're there .almost before you know it. 
The llrst impression is delightful; a 
comfortable cabin or lean-to, a good 
canoe, a sandy beach — the outlook as all 
wilderness vistas are, entrancing. The 
guide launches a canoe as you stand 
gazing at the distant mountains, sug- 
gesting that you go out and catch a few 
trout fr)r dinner while he builds the 
lire and makes the bread. 

it is close to n<->on. perliaps. and 
tlie sun is heating straight down upon 
the water. "Catch trout at midday in 
bright sunlight?" you query as the ab- 
surdity of the idea gains a hold upon 
you. "Preposterous!" "Guess you'z-c 
never heard er Turner." is the guide's 
quiet reply and he suggests that you 
[laddle out to the lily [lads and try a 
few casts. You start quickly wilh de- 
termination burning hot within you. 
You'll settle the "never heard of Tur- 
ner" question very shortly. Bright mid- 
day I Was there ever such an oppor- 
tunity ! You chuckle in your glee. 

As you go you note that it is a very 
likely looking pond. The water is as 
clear as crystal and as cool as a re- 
frigerator and below, you see an abund- 
ance of the peculiar gr.ass in which 
trout love to hide. From time to time 
you note fish breaking, but you are 
sure they are "chubs." because, you fig- 
ure it all out in your mind, "it can't be 
.anything else at this time of day " .\s 
tlie canoe approaches the pads you make 
an indifferent cast or two, without re- 
sult. You are elated; you will surely 
have something to say to that guide 
when vou came back! The exhilaration

of the sport, however, gives pleasure 
and you put out more line, conscious of 
the joy which comes from knowing how 
to handle it. When you have forty feet 
in swing you make a try at a little 
speck upon the water near the pads, 
and pull it slowly in, conscious that the 
work was good. 

Suddenly there is a splasli and you 
strike too late. "Lost him, by thunder," 
you mutter, suddenly forgetting that 
you were sure that trout would not rise 
at middav and bright sunlight at that. 



spots on the sides and creamy white on 
the belly, with deep crimson splashes; 
such a trout as you thought were only 
found in New Hampshire brooks. Your 
hand trembles a bit as you extract the 
fly and your next cast is with new pur- 
pose. Quick comes the strike, possibly 
a double or a triple this time, and in a 
few minutes you lind the little fellows 
rising in miniature schools, coming 
clear out of the water in their eager- 
ness. 

You have forgotten all about dinner. 




TAKES VOU STRAIGHT ACROSS THE LAKE TO THE INLET 



In another second the flies have again 
touched at the same spot and quick 
comes the response. Just a slight, un- 
conscious twist of the wrist and a thrill 
is speeding down the delicate rod, tell- 
ing that the game is on. He is not a 
big fellow and you soon have him 
alongside, pulling him in by the leader 
in your eagerness. 

It is a trout ! About a third or half 
a pound in weight ; beautiful green on 
the back, clear vermillion dots on blue 



,ill about the things you were framing 
in your mind to say to that conceited 
guide. Presently his voice rings across 
the water : "You've surely got enough 
by this time ; better come in, and besides, 
the fishing isn't much at midday." A 
glance at the bottom of the canoe shows 
that the remark is timely. A dozen or 
fifteen fish lie there, but you paddle in 
reluctantly. The guide gives a satis- 
fied glance at the fish and as he cleans 
them on the beach, he glances over his

shoulder to n-mark slyly, "Guess _von';v 
never heard er Turner." 

This time you smile back. Imi all the 
while you wonder what the fishing is 
like when it is "good." You rest after 
dinner and as the smoke from your 
pipe floats quickly up anil struggles 
through the pine spills overhead, you 
decide that you have never eaten such 
trout before, and ten to one. you 
haven't, ^'llu came to stay a day or 
two, and already you've begun to 
scheme to remain longer. 

With dimier dishes washed and ilu- 
beds boughed, the guide presents him- 
self, but you h.ive become fascinated 
watching the deer feeding upon the 
opposite shore of the pond, moving in 
and out. unconscious of your intru- 
sion. A cool breeze fans your face and 
the rustic chair is comfortable. An- 
other pipe has taken the place of the 
one which followed dinner and the sun 
is yet an hour too high for the "best" 
fishing, so you sit on. chatting with the 
guide, content. 

Five o'clock linds you on the pond. 
luit the guide ignores the lily pads, in 
spite of your protest, and takes you 
straight across the lake to tlie iidet, 
remarking as he brings the canoe to a 
standstill some fifty feet away, that an 
extra careful cast may get a "big un." 
The big one weighs a pound, or a pound 
and a half, but at Turner, it creates jus; 
as much delight as a live-pounder a; 
Moosehead. To end up the evening 
you try the little fellows again. Yor. 
catch what you want without half try- 
ing, and finally you cast just to watch 
the trout scramble for the flies, and 
when you paddle in you are sure "you 
never heard of Turner." You have 
taken more trout than you know wh.it 
to do with and thrown a score back; 
you have caught a "big one," perhaps, 
and you arc anticipating a week of just 
such sport, and you get it if you remain. 

It may be dark or .sunny, still or 
windy, cold or warm, the pond may rise 
or fall, the water may "work," but the 
trout rise just the same and if yon 
stayed a month you never could find an 



hour of daylight when you couldn't 
catch more than you could use, and most 
of the lime, you would find the trout 
rising as freely as they did the noon you 
arrived. The cabin is cozy, the beds 
coniforiable. the food delicious, the air 
like good wine, and the water from a 
spring of nectar. You leave with 
regret, but there is joy in your heart 
because you are sure you will come 
again: sure "you've heard of Turner!" 



We Eat Too Much ! 

Ill town huiiuins require not loss than 
two course dinners a day. Down on the 
farm they can get along very comfort- 
ably on milk, eggs, and vegetables, or 
for that matter, any one of these three 
articles of food. Lost in the wilderness, 
these same humans can survive for days 
;iiid even weeks, on berries and such 
slight nutriment as can be secured from 
boiling moss and lichens and drinking 
tile water. Just a little nitrogen is all 
the food they get, hut it is sufficient to 
sustain life indefinitely if one only real- 
izes that physical strength must be re- 
served. 

All of which goes to show that we eat 
too nuicli !

DAY KNOWS NO ENDING 

"Wentworths Guests Yield to Moonlights Subtle Charm 
and Live for Time Being in Fairyland 




AY has known no end- 
ing during the week 
past for Wentworth guests, all 
yielding to the subtle charm of 
t h e gorgeous m o o nl i g h t 
nights; the landscape as mys- 
terious and as fascinating as a rare 
Carot — vague, indefinable, tender. Along 
silver roads, flecked here and there with 
dark shadows, automobiles are spinning 
while motor boats cut the surface of the 
purple ocean, where a path of gold 
leads to the Unknown! In the dark- 
ened corners of the hotel piazza, within 
sound of the music, hundreds sit, enjoy- 
ing the fairyland panorama, while 
others in summer houses, on paths lead- 
ing to the beach, or upon the ocean pier, 
live for the time being, in another world. 
Life is as a beautiful dream from which 
there is no rude awakening, and time 
ceases to be a matter of record.

YACHT CLUB'S FLEET RUN 



Supper on Lake Shore and Return by Moonlight Rounds 
Out Delightful Evening at Mt Kineo 



\i^Lj r'V^ GODS, what air!" 
^|UftC>- 1 remarked a New 
^fk Vorker as he stepped from a 
y * lieated Pullman into Moose- 
head's glorious open, the other 
afternoon, and herein lies the 
secret of Kineo's supremacy among 
Maine's resorts. "Ye gods, what air!" 
it surely is; a climate the like of which 
is not to be found elsewhere, even at 
other points on the lake less favored 
than this peninsula. Clear, crisp, beau- 
tiful days following one upon another 
until cities' heat and stuffiness seem 
vague and unreal — a joy in itself alone 
—the recollection which all carry away 
.mil which lingers after all else has dis- 
appeared. 

YACHT CLUB HAD FLEET RUN 

Easily the event of the week was Sat- 
urday's "fleet run" of the Moosehead 
Lake Yacht Club, the iirst of many 
which are to follow and a pleasant 
prophecy for the summer. The lake 
shore near Socatean stream, was the 
ilcstination and here supper was pre- 
pared by the guides and the evening 
spent in the cheerful glow of a monster 
campfire, the return to Kineo being 
made by the light of a glorious moon; 
an occasion of treasured memory for all 
who were privileged to enjoy it. The 
entrance of the boats to the harbor in 
battleship formation, made a brilliant 
spectacle from the piazzas of the hotel 
which several hundred people witnessed, 
the closing event of the evening, the dis- 
missal gun from the flagship of Commo- 
dore C. M. Clark which was a signal for 
all boats to blow their whistles and the 
pandemonium which followed awakened 
forest echoes as they have never been 
awakened since the dawn of creation. 

The list of boats participating in the 
run, their owners and the guests they 



carried include tlie following: Unome 
(flagship). Commodore and Mrs. C. M. 
Clark, Miss De Goll and Messrs. G. E. 
Cooley and Thos. J. O'Donohue, Jr. ; 
Clematis, Mr. W. L. Sheafer, Miss Anna

WHERE THE NAMES CAME FROM 

Motor boating is greatly stimulated 
by the presence of the Club and many 
new boats having been launched re- 
cently, among the owners being Mrs. M. 
D. Paterson, E. H. Outerbridge and 
George W. Powers of New York ; Dr. 
S. McCuen Smith of Germantown, and 
James K. Clarke of Ardmore. Mrs. 
Paterson has chosen a Persian name, 
"Damiante," for her boat, meaning 
"pearl of boats." Mr. Clarke's "Nee- 
bana" is after an Indian maiden painted 
by the local artist, Francis West, and 
Dr. Smith's "Wissahickon" was sug-

sentiment hi the choice of "l-'lsie" by 
Mr. Powers.

TWO CLE.VN CUT WINS 

The Kineo team scored two clean-cut 
wins in the second baseball game of the 
schedule, defeating the Orono Pulp and 
Paper Company team, ten to one and six 
to one. Kineo won on superior batting 
and because its pitchers, Elkston and 
Durgin, both had the visitors guessing, 
the former striking out eleven and 
granting four hits and the latter fanning 
twelve and permitting but two singles. 

Durgin found the ball for a home 
run in the first game. Fellows made 
four. James Scales and Coggins three 
hits each. In the second game Durgin 
with two men ahead of him legging it 
for all they were worth, again made the 
round of the bases, three runs being 
made in the previous inning on a com- 
bination of errors.

^P|^|ii i< with sports without and 
W' I social pleasures within, can 
liackground fishing at Del- 
sradc. the sensation of the 
week the arrival of a party of anglers, 
including Rev. E. A. White of Bloom- 
field. Messrs. II. L. Marsh of Roches- 
ter. ;ind 11. P. Sackett of Xcw York, 
from a two days' trip to a uearhy lake, 
with a "boat load" catch ; twenty-two 
trout an<l five salmon, totaling over one 
hundred pound.s and averaging over 
four and one-h.ilf pmuids each, in 
weight. 

The big fish of the string was a seven 
and a half pound salmon and with it 
was a five pounder, a three pounder and 
two estimated at two pounds each. The 
weight of the largest trout was six and 
three-quarters pounds and there were 
also a six-pound, 2 five and a half 
pound. 4 five-pound. 2 five and a quar- 
ter pound. I five and an eighth pound, 2 
four and a half pound, 2 four ,ind a 
quarter pound, 3 three and a quarter 
pound, and 3 three-pound trout. 

The total weights of the strings 
shown in the accompanying photograph, 
are thirty-four and one-half pounds, 
twenty-nine and three-quarters pounds, 
twenty and one-fourth pounds, ninety 
and one-half pounds and sixteen and 
three-eighths pounds, and the anglers are 
wondering if the picture can be equalled. 
Briefly, it is a case of "trot out your 
records." Xcxt! 



Other fine catches included a string of 
bass averaging two pounds each in 
weight with a fofir-pounder at the head, 
made by Mrs. R. J. Fooks of Brooklyn. 
Mrs. Fooks is fully as enthusiastic over 
angling as her husband with whom she 



spends nuich of her time upon the water. 

MR. .SLO.NN WINS GOLF H.WDlr.M' 

The opening golf tournament of the 
summer's .series, a medal play handicap, 
attracted a large field, F. f. Sloan of 
Cradford. \. ]., whose allowance was 
ten, winning with a net card of seventy- 
seven. G. II. Buzby of Philadelphia, 
also ten, was second in seventy-eight, 
and Frank Dudcnsing of New York 
(.22). third in seventy-nine. E. Robb of 
Xew York (16), made eighty-two. 
Henry Zuckerman of Xew York (25"), 
eighty-eight: Leon Sherburne of New

(.^o). one hundred eight: Mrs. Zucker- 
man (25). one hundred nine, and Mrs. 
II. .\. Morgan of Xew York (25), one 
hundred and ninety-four. 

Special interest centers in the contest 
for a very handsome trophy offered by 
The Belgrade for the best gross score 
m.ide during the season. 

n.\sKp,.\i.r. iioi.ns the crowd 

The second baseball game of the 
season between The Belgrade and the 
Pine Island teams resulted in a contest 
which ended with a brilliant rally by the 
visitors in the last half of the ninth, a 
base on balls, four singles and two 
three-baggers netting them six runs. 
The hotel team, however, stemmed the 
stampede in time to save the game, win- 
ning thirteen to eleven. 

These games are to be made a regular 
Saturday afternoon feature during the 
sunmier and tlie enthusiasm could not 
be more marked if the Xew Yorks and 
Philadelphias were playing here for 
tlic championship. The ball groimds arc

You Never Can Tell Till You Try 

"It's astonishing what a man can do 
if he tries, and there is nothing which 
demonstrates this as fully as wilderness 
life," remarked a returning camper the 
other evening. "All that is necessary is 
to be cut off from the source of supply 
— and to be put solidly up against it — 
to demonstrate this for the author's in- 
spiration for his most successful book 
is in all truth, not infrequently, 'an 
empty pocket book !' 

"Why I found that I could do most 
anything. F"or instance, the main 
spring of my watch broke at the point 
where it was fastened, and I took the 
watch apart, drilled another hole, re- 
placed the spring and the watch ran. I 
tied trout flies to suit my personal taste 
without any knowledge whatever of the 
art. engraved a plate for my dog's col- 
lar, built all kinds of furniture when I 
have never had a tool in my hands, got 
so I could cook fairly well in a very 
short time, washed flannels without 
shrinking them, darned stockings and 
threaded needles with all the skill of a 
professional seamstress. 

".■Xnd I am under the impression that 
as a t>'pe, I am rather slow at adapting 
myself to unusual conditions. Briefly, 
1 have never had a knack for doing 
.mything unusual and I have always 
been so situated that I have been able 
to find someone who could do every- 
thing out of my line of work f(jr me."

VISIT POLAND'S KITCHEN 

It's a Model Because the Man in Charge Gets Results 
Instead of Explanations 



VT.nTjIS IDEAS on aiitomo- 
^ mi^ rt ijiics may differ slightly 

^H^ from tliose entertained by 

fr 7 dealers, hut when it comes to 
knowing the "back of the 
lionse" as no one in the 
country knows it, Alvin B. Ricker, 
steward of the Poland Spring house, is 
the best man which twentieth century 
resort hotel business, with all its exact- 
ing requirements, has produced. The 
fact is so generally known that it is 
staled merely as a matter of form in the 
usual preliminary introduction. 

The main point to be emphasized, 
however, is — don't leave Poland without 
a visit to the kitchen for it is just as 
much a feature of the place as the bot- 
tling plant or the library. And best of 
all, ".M Ricker" as he is familiarly 
known everywhere, will be glad to see 
you. glad to show you about, for the 
kitchen is his hobby, a model of cleanli- 
ness, equipment and arrangement. 

.Apparently noticing nothing, Mr. 
Ricker's quick and trained eye takes in 
everything as he goes and as he ex- 
plains this or that to you he stops to 
shut one of the doors of the dish 
warmer, ask the vegetable cook if the 
w.iter isn't rather low in the beans, or 
pick a scrap from the floor. While you 
are in the cool butcher shop he inquires 
as to the meat supply, at the same time 
minutely inspecting the sirloin on the 
l)lock, and as he is showing you the sil- 
ver he is at the same time looking it 
over to see if it has been properly 
cleaned and polished, inside and out. 
Nothing escapes him, his personality 
and bis life are in the work, and the re- 
sult is a model department which may 
be taken as a standard the world over ; 
as near perfection as mortals who de- 
pend upon humans to carry out their in- 
structions, may ever hope to attain. 



Nothing comes into the kitchen with- 
out inspection and nothing goes out of 
it without scrutiny, and this double 
checking system means that when any- 
thing is served in the dining-room it is 
the best ; the best material, the best 
cooked, and the best served — the whole 
combination brought into one perfect 
unit. You find some one of these 
features very often, you find two occa- 
sionally, but you find the three very sel- 
dom, and for this reason and this reason 
alone the Poland Spring table is excep- 
tional and back of every bit of it is the 
force and personality of A. B. Ricker. 
-As near as it is possible for one man to 
be, under similar circumstances, he is re- 
sponsible for the food served from the 
first to the final stage. 

Take for instance the lamb and poul- 
try supply of the hotel. To get just 
what he wants Mr. Ricker pays fancy 
prices to tlie farmers of the section. 
These farmers know that Mr. Ricker 
knows and results not c.rplaiiafioiis, are 
what he gets. The vegetable supply is 
very largely from the inodel farm 
which is under his personal supervision 
and the same is true of the milk, cream 
and butter. 

Wlten it comes to the purchasing of 
outside supplies, nearly all of wliich he 
selects through personal visits to mar- 
kets and stores, he also knows what he 
w^ants and he knows what he gets, and 
if they are not up to the standard they 
go back express collect 1 Mr. Ricker 
has a reputation wherever he purchases 
and because he knows he gets what he 
wants and the laying aside of excep- 
tionally choice products to meet his ex- 
acting requirements has become almost 
mechanical in the places where he pur- 
chases. 

Just what the self-imposed task 
means is pretty fully demonstrated by 



2,^ Page 



N0RTI!\V.\Rn-II0! 




the following list which shows what the 
hotel consumes in an average day dur- 
ing the season: 37s poundsloins of beef; 
70 pounds short ribs; 115 pounds round; 
55 jiounds rumps; 175 pounds lamb; 25 
pounds veal ; 400 pounds chicken ; 250 
pounds duck; 10 pounds squabs; 100 
poiHids table butter ; 125 pounds cooking 
butter; 150 dozen eggs; 140 gallons 
milk ; 45 gallons cream ; 4 pounds tea ; 
45 pounds coffee, 2 1-2 barrels flour; s 
crates of canteloupes ; 5 crates peaches ; 
one box lemons ; nuts, raisins, figs, 
cheese, crackers, pickles, etc., etc. 

ANGLERS IN THK LIMELIGHT 

For ten days past the anglers have 
been very much in the lime-light through 
the presence of ex-Senator Joseph B. 
Foraker of Ohio, who has spent much 
of his time upon the lake and always 
with good success. His best catch was 
one short of a dozen with a four- 
pounder at the head and which pulled 
the scales down to the twenty-pound 
mark. 

Mr. S. B. Stinson of Philadelphia, one 
of the old-timers here, has shown that 
he has not forgotten the art, taking in 
company with Mr. C. H. Piatt of New 
York, a goodly string weighing twenty- 
five pounds and including a four-pound- 
er. Another string of eight fish 
weighed an even twenty pounds. 

Among the fairer sex, Mrs. E. R. Der- 
land of New York, is the leader with 
six bass to her credit weighing twelve 
pounds.

OUR TRIP TO WOLF DhN 

You've Also Made It?' 



^ifK^ iVJ. Botany Smith. f;iniil- 
|flp^ i.irly known as "Smitli" in our 
^7 family, in order that it may 
1h- dcHnilcly known to whom 
wc are referring, has a sum- 
iiKT liaclielor camp in the land of 
XoKTHWAKii-Ho! which he calls "Wolf 
Den." From the first the name hiitl a 
fascination for me. and hesides. I love 
the woods .-md detest the hot. stuffy city 
in -ummer. Xaturally. when a note 
came from Smith saying 
that Mrs. Kendall and tiiy 
self must set aside a few- 
days and spend ihcm at 
"Wolf Den." I ivv.s- de- 
lighted, and I lost no time 
in accepting. We started 
the following Saturday. 
What a joy it was to leave 
it all hehind! llow I 
cnricd Smith — lucky dog, 
Child of Nature, living the 
Life Ideal! I certainly did envy liim. 
Late in the afternoon we alighted at 
Trout Brook station with a sigh of re- 
lief for the journey had been tedious 
and the cars crowded. On the plat- 
form stood Smith, with a hand for 
e.ich and a smile for both. To be sure, 
h.irdly the Smith we knew in town, for 
he did liiiik somewhat seedy, not to say 
shiftless, with a shabby suit and two 
weeks' growth of beard; but il wa^ 
Smith for all that, and he was glad to 
see us, no doubt about it, and we ivcrc 
glad to see him. 

We filled our stitled lungs with pure 
mountain air while our luggage was 




thrown into a light two-seated demo- 
crat, and a moment later were off. The 
railroad station was soon lost to sight 
and the horse jogging along a winding 
road beside which majestic elms stoo<l 
out sharp and clear against great banks 
of bllowing clouds, piled high against 
the sky, their cool tones in refreshing 
contrast with the landscape bathed in 
tlie mellowing rays of the afternoon 
sun. "Isn't this grand," whispered Mrs. 
Kend.ill. with a look I love to see, and. 
as I filled my pipe, I 
circicd Smith — lucky dog. 
Child of Nature, living 
the Life Ideal! 

( )n we went til rough a 
licautiful country; along 
white roads and through 
the cool shadows of the 
firs, past farm houses fore- 
grounded by waving fields 
and backgrounded by tall 
maples ; across stretching 
me.idows where brooks danced and gur- 
gled, nearer and nearer to the distant 
mountain which at each new glimpse, 
seemed to beckon us to climb its rugged 
side, and at whose foot, we were told 
"Wolf Den" lay. 

Then we passed through a (juaint 
little village, with white houses, prim 
picket fences, and green blinds ; a 
country store, a village church, a town 
pump— where we bad a drink of cool 
water — and then wc slowly climbed a 
hill and went ipiickly down a slope and. 
suddenly, we were almost at the foot of 
the niounlain, which until then, had 
seemed far away. We turned sharply 



N'ORTHWARD-HO! 



Page lo 



to the Icfl, past a faniilunise, and 
tlirniigh the trees the setting sun was 
reflected erinison on distant water. 

We followed an unused road for a 
mile or so and turned aside through a 
higli gate which shut off wheel marks 
leading through a rocky pasture. Half 
a mile further on we came to the 
wooded shores of a pond which we fol- 
lowed for a few rods. The horse 
stopped mechanically. Not far away, 
througli the trees, on a rocky point of 
land, stood "Wolf Den" and while 
.Smith unhitched the horse we rushed 
up for our first glimpse with a cry of 
delight. 

It was a picturesque retreat, octag- 
onal in shape, huilt of pine logs with 
the hark on. the sawed ends painted 
white and the doors and trimmings 
red ; a wide veranda running entirely 
a r o u n d it. Presently 
Smitli unlocked the door 
and we feasted our eyes 
on the interior. A fire- 
place of boulders was the 
speci.nl feature and over 
it hung a modern rifle 
and several ancient arms, 
suspended from a deer's 
antlers. In the centre of 
the room stood a rustic tabic and about 
it four unique chairs, all of Smith's own 
make ; on the brown logs drawings of 
lish, mounted fish, woods trophies and 
more arms, all pleasing bits of color. 

"How delightful!" exclaimed Mrs. 
Kendall enthusiastically. How much 
nicer it is to leave the bark on these 
lovely logs ; they are so picturesque, so 
full of color!" And I envied Smith — 
lucky dog. Child of Nature, living the 
Life Ideal ! Then Smith suggested that 
we look around a bit while he prepared 
supper. Supper was something that I 
had been thinking of seriously for sev- 
eral hours past, but just how or when 
it was coming had not entered my mind 
until that moment. 

"Why, do you cook your own meals ; 
do all your own work?" questioned 
^Irs. Kendall in her most flattering 
tones. "How fascinating!" Smith ad- 




mitted that he did, with all due mod- 
esty. And I envied Smith again. We 
lingered just long enough to see him 
cover the rustic table with a bright red 
table cloth and set a few deep blue dishes 
on it. Now if there is anything in the 
world I do dote on it is a bright red table 
cloth with deep blue dishes, but "sweet- 
heart" doesn't care for them as a regular 
thing, and I have to forego the pleasure 
in town. 

In a suriirisingly short time Smith's 
halloo announced tea, and we hurried 
back. Everything was very cheery ; the 
bright red table cloth, the deep blue 
dishes, and the warm light over all. 
Smith, busy at a smoky oil stove, stopped 
long enough to seat us, explaining that 
he'd cook the "flap jacks" and hand thein 
to us hot, because they were much better 
that way, and he asked my wife to pour 
the tea. Of course we felt 
that supper would not be 
complete without Smith, 
but he seemed to take so 
much pleasure in acting 
as a comliination chef 
and waiter that we with- 
drew Dur objections. 

X'lw I'm not fussy 
about "flap jacks." I can 
get along without them for quite a spell, 
and it was the first time I had ever at- 
tempted to make a meal of them, but I 
thought I could stand it, and besides, I 
knew that Mrs. Kendall was very fond 
of them. Presently the first batch was 
ready and smoking on her plate. They 
looked brown and good. Mrs. Kendall 
looked for the butter and not seeing it, 
asked Smith if he would mind passing 
it. Smith hesitated and then explained 
that it was hard to keep butter without 
ice. so he didn't have it "much." They 
were fair cakes and they tasted good, 
but the "maple syrup" was sorghum, 
and we detest sorghum, but this was, of 
course, "rough camp." 

Then I noticed my tea and asked 
Smith if he would pass the cream — the 



cream mind 



il 



I shall never forgive 
myself for that ! Smith explained that 
cream would not keep well without ice 



1 1 I'Ai^K 



Nom iiu \Kii 111] ! 



:iinl Ik- (liiln't have it "imicli," ami I'lii- 
iher, it was half a mile across the pmul 
to the nearest farm liousc. "Resides," 
he concluded, as he besian opening a can 
with his pocket knife. "1 like condensed 
milk better." 

Xow Mrs. Kendall and I don't agree 
iin everything, bright red table cloths 
and deep blue dishes, for instance ; but 
neither one of us can drink tea with- 
out milk, and any suggestion of sweet- 
ening is mibearablc. In consequence, 
we couldn't drink tea with condensed 
milk, we couldn't drink it without, and 
we couldn't drink Smith's tea. as much 
as we loved Smith. So we just smiled, 
and when Smith's back was turned, busily 
cooking cakes, I poured it down between 
the cracks in the floor, and even took a 
second cup, in response to Smith's urg- 
ing, complimenting him on his ability as 
a "chef;" chef mind you! 
I shall nner forgive my- 
self for that remark. 

We sat on the veranda 
in uncomfortable rustic 
chairs and I smoked while 
Smith supped, enjoying 
the moonlight on the lake 
and the cool, fragrant 
forest air ; but the mos- 
quitoes, minges. black flies and things, 
which buzzed around and fed on us, did 
seem rather numerous, and tired froni 
our long day, we began to think of retir- 
ing early. Smith aniicip.iled our desire 
and e.xplained that the sleeping "rooms" 
— I am sure he used that word — were 
"up stairs," to which a ladder standing 
by the fireplace, led. Up to that moment 
the thought of where we w'cre to sleep 
had never entered my mind. Smith 
obligingly went outside while Mrs. Ken- 
dall clambered up. Smitli always liv/.< 
thoughtful! 

Then it occurred to me that I would 
like a glass of clear, cold, sparkling 
stiini; water ; but Smith explained that 
he didn't have a spring, drank pond 
water instead, and lie went down 
to the shore and dipped up a pailful 
from the shallow beach so as to have it 
"fresh" Well the water made the 




liriglu tin pail look amber, it bail lain in 
the sun on the sandy beach all the after- 
noon and it was rather warm, but thirst 
is a lieiid and — we drank it. 

It was awfully jolly "up stairs" — at 
first sight — with the rafters overhead 
close down, and a curtain dividing it in 
the centre; so cozy, so rustic. Smith's 
"room" was first and ours next, so thai 
at a glance, I saw that it would be ad- 
visable for us to retire first, and like- 
wise, best for Smith to arise before 
we did. 

Then I took a look at the "curtain" 
which divided the "rooms." It was a 
trifle heavier than cheesecloth. Then I 
took a look at the "beds" in our "room." 
Ihey were single cots, the <i feather 
bed kind which sink very low in the 
centre and rise very high at the head 
and foot; the kind that squeak and 
groan ominously as if in 
warning, when you move 
in them. 1 never could 
sleep on a single bed. let 
alone a cot, but I thou^iht 
I riii(/i/ stand it. 

riien 1 held tile light 
liigh up and (ouiiil 
spiders and things on the 
low rafters, all busy, all 
waiting, it seemed to me. Then I took 
a look at the logs, those lovely logs 
which were so picturesque with the 
bark on — the bark so full of color — 
and there were bugs and worms and 
tilings on them. Then I muttered, very 
softly, something to Mrs. Kendall about 
Smith ; "words overcharged with feel- 
ing." Mrs. Kendall didn't like that — 
she never likes to have me swear — and 
she said, rather tartly, that she thought 
I ought to be able to put up with a few 
"little inconveniences" of "rough camp" 
in such a truly delightful spot, and 
Professor Smilh had been so very kind. 
She certainly did say "little inconven- 
iences." 

Then I was cruel enough to call Mrs. 
Kendall's attention to the spiders and 
things, and the hugs and worms and 
things, but she only gave a forced little 
laugh aii<l look the col farlhe>t from 



North WARD-Ho! 



Page 12 



the wall so that there was nothing else 
for me to do but to take the one beside 
the logs with the bugs and worms and 
things, close by, and the rafters with 
the spiders and things, just above. 

Just then Smith came up, carrying a 
shotgun, and undressed in the dark; a 
very wise precaution I thought— not the 
gun but the dark— when I remembered 
the curtain. Then the stillness of 
night settled down and sleep, beautiful, 
sonorous sleep, spread its wings over 
Smith, but not over me, and I was just 
beginning to mind, to really mind, when 
Mrs. Kendall's cold hand slipped into 
mine. Never a word or whisper was 
spoken all through the long, tedious 
night, and thus we lay until the first 
gray streaks of dawn lighted the rafters 
and logs and revealed the spiders and 
things, and the bugs and worms and 
things, still busy. 

Then we rose quietly, dressed hur- 
riedly and crept down the ladder like 
spectres, while Smith slept and snored 
on. Out into the clean, clear, morning 
air we leaped. We bathed our fevered 
brows at the shore of the pond, sought 
out a grassy nook, and with a couple of 
Smith's blankets on the ground, we 
slept ; slept soundly, peacefully, until 
the sun shining in our faces, woke us. 

I hurried to the cabin, but Smith was 
still snoring loudly, so I replaced the 
rugs, joined Mrs. Kendall and we 
strolled about. When Smith came 
down we were on the veranda, radiant 
as rose blooms, to explain how the 
beauty of the morning had tempted us 
to rise early, and that we were ready 
for breakfast. Yes. breakfast ! T usi'd 
that word. I shall never forgive my- 
self for that, for breakfast is a word 
with meaning to me — a word which 
conveys something more than soda bis- 
cuits, without butter, and poorly made 
coflfee with condensed milk — ^but it's 
only fairness to the bean which intoxi- 
cated goats some centuries ago. to say 
that I believe the cupful I drank saved 
my life. I shall never cease to think 
that. Bless the man who took the 
trouble to discover what the goats were 



eating, and I am almost tempted to add. 
bless the goats ! 

Smith washed the breakfast dishes in 
cold water, because it took oil to heat 
water, and without soap, because he 
had forgotten to purchase it at the vil- 
lage, wiped them on the towel we had 
used, and had us out on the pond be- 
fore I had time to think. Only vaguely 
do I recall that it was a beautiful sheet 
of water with green hills all about, lit- 
tle islands here and there, and a wide 
river winding in at the head ; that there 
were pickerel, and bass and perch for 
the taking, and wild ducks and signs of 
deer, for it had suddenly occurred to 
me that I had come for a week! I had 
been very careful to be specific about 
this in my letter to Smith. Naturally I 
expected to be urged to stay longer, but 
I had stated that we could stay that 
length of time. 

Noon found us back at the cabin and 
presently the smoky oil stove was in 
operation. T recall this as one in a 
trance. A moment later Smith ap- 
peared with a tin can in one hand and 
the light of one who is about to make a 
startling disclosure in his eyes. "Do 
you like Campbell's soup?" he queried 
gleefully, as he held the can up to view, 
while the word "mock turtle" burned 
into my hungered brain as hope battled 
with fear. "Do I !" was the fervent re- 
sponse I managed to rouse myself suffi- 
ciently to make, and Smith went his 
way rejoicing. Presently the ravishing 
odor of something that was not flap 
jacks or soda biscuits, floated to my 
grateful nostrils. 

"Dinner!" shouted Smith boyishly, a 
few minutes later, and I upset a chair 
in my eagerness to respond, only to get 
a disgusted look from Mrs. Kendall. 
Smith served us scantily, remarking 
that it was very rich and a I'.ttle went 
"a long way." He helped himself 
bountifully, explaining that he was 
"used to it." Our plates were soon 
empty; those lovely deep blue plates 
on the bright red cloth, but Smith 
didn't seem to notice them and he 
helped himself again, and again, drain-

NORTHWARO-HO! 



ing the bowl with the remark : "This is 
the handiest stuff you ever saw for 
rough cnnip," and I iigncd with Smitli. 
in a dull, uncomprehending way. 

Then a great light broke through the 
clouds which shadowed my brain — an 
inspi-atioii if ever man had one ! I 
didn't wait to smoke my "after dinner" 
cigar which I have come to consider as 
important as the meal itself, I didn't 
wait for Smith to finish washing the 
deep blue dishes m cold water, without 
soap ; but at once explained that Mrs. 
Kendall and myself were very fond of 
driving — would he mind if we took the 
team for a little exploring trip? 

The suggestion pleased Smith — lucky 
dog. Child of Xature, living the Life 
Ideal — who. no doubt, welcomed the 
opportunity to be alone, for as he 
hitched up the horse, he kindly sug- 
gested that we leave the wagon at the 
farmhouse down the road, and get a 
single seated bugg\- which he kept 
there. As we drove away he called to 
us that he w^ould catch some perch 
during the afternoon, and "I'll show 
you how to cook fish in rough camp, to- 
night," were his parting words. I love 
fish and I love them in the woods served 
on a bright red table cloth and in deep 
blue dishes, and I do like perch ; but 
only with an effort, could I concentrate 
myself long enough to comprehend 
Smith, and then I wondered vaguely if 
he really meant it ; or was it an 
.npology ! 

We proceeded leisurely until outside 
of the high gate, hurried to the farm 



and secured the light buggy. It wasn't 
necessary for me to explain to Mrs. 
Kendall where we were going, and 
when we drove up to the little Inn at 
Trout Brook station and gave the horse 
to the stable boy. she didn't even ask : 
"Won't Professor Smith worry?" 

The morning train carried us to the 
city; the hot. dusty, smoky city which 1 
detest in summer. Supper time found 
us at home, while Katie with a look of 
unconcealable curiosity, brought pink 
canteloupe. juicy sirloin, crisp muffins, 
and cream and butter, and things, all in 
the daintiest of white china, and put 
them on the snowiest of table cloths, 
and I didu't mind; I'm sure I didn't! 

Then in the twilight, we sat on the 
veranda, in comfortable, civilized chairs, 
overlooking the lawn with its great 
elms, while I smoked, and there was no 
moonlight on the lake ; no cool, fra- 
grant, forest air ; no mo.squitoes, minges. 
black flies, and things, but I didn't 
mind ; not even when my dear little 
wife snuggled close to me as I love to 
have her do. and asked fearfully : 

"Rut, Justus, -ti'!uit will Professor 
Smith say?" 

Dreamily I gazed afar off into the 
deep blue sky. and as the picture of 
Smith — lucky dog. Child of Xature, liv- 
ing the Life Ideal — came back to me 
with photographic exactness, I niur- 
mnred softly : 

"Smith be dtiiiinrd !" 

.'\nd Mrs. Kendall, who nn'cr likes to 
have me swear, didn't mind ; I know she 
didn't!

AQUATIC GYMKHANA FROLIC 

It Furnishes Amusing Afternoon of Novelty and Surprise 
for Visitors at Mount Kineo 




A T U R D A V afternoon's 
aquatic gymkhana proved 
one of the most amusing 
iffairs ever seen here, replete 
uitli novelty and surprise, 
several hundred people wit- 
nessing the fun from the verandas 
of tlie Yacht Club house and laughing 
until their sides ached. Details of ar- 
rangement were in the hands of an 
active committee including Messrs. 
James K. Clarke, Francis West and 
Nelson Dougherty; the judges of the 
afternoon Rear Commodore W. H. 
Dougherty. Secretary George E. Cooley 
and Mr. Ernest F. Eidlitz, one of the 
Club's prominent charter members. At 
the close of the program afternoon tea 
was served at the Club house and hand- 
some prizes awarded the winners in the 
various events. 

The first number on the program was 
a mixed doubles tandem canoe race, 
eight couples participating. The dis- 
tance was two hundred yards and the 
field well bunched from start to finish, 
Mr. and Mrs. Francis West of Boston, 
finishing first with Mr. Austin Feucht- 
wanger of Madison, and Miss Toyo 
Murai of Riverside, but a half a length 
behind them. Others in the race were 
Mr. and Mrs. James K. Clarke, Mr. F. 
Walter Hentz and Miss Clarice Pater- 
son, Mr. Yoneo Aral and Miss Harriet 
Gay, Mr. W. T. Harrison and Mrs. M. 
D. Paterson, Mr. G. Allen Smith and 
Miss Mio Arai, Mr. Jack Hutchiiis and 
Miss Edith Thornton. 

The amusing portage race which fol- 
lowed was a decided novelty, contest- 
ants diving off the breakwater, swim- 
ming to canoes, crawling in, paddling 
to the breakwater, carrying the canoes 
across and paddling to a finish line in 
front of the Club house. As for upsets 
there never was a time when someone 



was not in the water and the attempts 
of many to regain their canoes under 
difficult conditions were most amusing. 
The race was paddled by couples, 
Messrs. Nelson Dougherty and Austin 
Feuchtwanger winning, with Messrs. 
Francis West and Jack Gay, second. 
Messrs. G. Allen Smith and Jack 
Hutchins, F. Walter Hentz and Yoneo 
Arai were others who enjoyed the fun. 

The tail end race was both difficult 
and ludicrous, the conditions requiring 
that the contestants sit in the bows of 
their canoes with the sterns out of bal- 
ance and raised high in the air, and 
their progress during the race resem- 
bled bird dogs working out quail tracks! 
Master Taro Murai of Riverside, was 
the first to make the journey; Messrs. 
C. L. Spieden and Francis West being 
disqualified for landing stern first, much 
to the amusement of the crowd. 

The gunwale contest, next in order, 
was not without its difficulties, the 
young men standing on the gunwales of 
the canoe, or attempting to do so, and 
paddling, during the intervals when 
they were not trying to maintain their 
balance and when not either, flounder- 
ing in the water attempting to regain 
the canoe or trying to get back on the 
gunwales. Messrs. C. L. Spieden and 
G. Allen Smith had matters much their 
own way, finishing first and second and 
making the distance without a mishap. 

In the upset race the trick was to 
jump overboard at a signal, crawl back 
as quickly as possible, and paddle back 
to the finish line, but the result was 
largely the swamping of canoes and get- 
ting distanced. Messrs. Nelson Dough- 
erty and Austin Feuchtwanger were the 
winners, Messrs. Walter Hentz and 
Yoneo Arai second. 

The closing number was the lance 
contest of the middle ages adapted to

NORTHWARD-Ilo! 



Northern Maine, an<l wliile it was, per- 
haps, less thrilling and less dangerous 
than the ancient sport, it was, neverthe- 
less, none the less amusing and the 
contestants punched each oilier merci- 
lessly and puslied each other into tlie 
water indiscriminately, until the judge- 
look mercy of Messrs. \V. T. Harrison 
and Francis West, who were figliting il 
out in the lin;ils. and declared a draw. 

WON IX THE TWIXFTH INNING 

"When Greek meets Greek, then 
comes the tug of war," .nid sn ttir 
.innual baseball game between the old 
rivals, the local and the Dover-Fox- 
croft teams, is anticip.ntcd from year to 



equally brilliant, eighteen men being 
struck out and but six scattering hits 
allowed. 

The visitors scored their only runs in 
the second inning on a combination of 
two hits and an equal number of errors, 
but after .that try as they would, the 
home plate was just beyond reach. 
Kineo scored in the lifth and sixth in- 
nings. Eckstrom landing for a home 
run, the winning tally coming in the 
twelfth; Captain Scales the lir^t man 
nil. landing for a clean single and being

year, this season's contest the third in 
the schedule, the fastest and prettiest 
ever played here, the home team win- 
ning with a spectacular play in the 
twelfth inning, three io two; the a,.jre 
tied from the sixth. Throughout, the 
game was distinctly a pitcher's battle 
royal and for the first time this season 
the locals found themselves up against 
a pitcher who could hold them down. 
For the first five innings, not a man 
reached first ofT Delano and during the 
game ten men were retired, with hits 
few and scattered. The work of Kks- 
trom, Kinco's Dartmouth crack, was 



ball to second in time for a triple. 
Davis, also of the Dover team, gath- 
ered in a difficult foul fly and Captain 
Scales pulled a hot liner out of the 
clouds which looked good for at least 
two bases. 

The second game was disappointing, 
the home team winning easily fifteen to 
three, landing on Delano imtil they 
sent him to the tall timber in center 
field with a bunch of hits that had net- 
ted eleven runs, but it is only fairness 
to say that his support was poor. 
Boadway. wdio succeeded him. fared 
little better, four runs being made

Ryan of the University of Maine, 
occupied tlie box for Kineo, pitching a 
masterly game, granting only three hits 
and striking out fourteen men. The 
feature was the hitting of Coggins of 
the locals who tallied four hits, one of 
them a two-bagger. 

The scores by innings :

Dover 02000000000 — 2

Delightful days have kept all much in

winter or summer, takes the place of 
incoming guests? From them the 
younger set select acquaintances and the 
older ones those they would like to 
meet, while the golfer or the tennis

play if they carry a tennis racquet or a 
golf clul) bag. And so at The Went- 
worth. there is never a time when leis- 
ure moments may not be pleasantly 
occupied thus. Some come for lunch,

MONSTERS FIGHT HARD 

Souvenir Favor Cotillion Provides Evening of Merry- 
making for Guests at The Belgrade 



Vrrn \ plea SANT prophecy 

^ISL- t\ for the weeks to come 

|flP^ and an occasion of enjoyment 

PF T 'ong to he rememhered, was 

Saturday evening's souvenir 

favor cotillion arranged by 

Mrs. Nathan Pulsifer Thayer, whose 

presence here is always synonymous 

with life and gayety throughout the 

entire hotel. Planned on original lines 

and replete with merrymaking, the 

afifair entertained not only the dancers, 

but a company of onlookers which 

ta.Ked the capacity of the music hall. 

Among the most novel of the figures 
and appropriate to The Belgrade, was 
the one in which partners were "fished" 
for across a screen and while strikes 
were plentiful, the landing of the "mon- 
sters" was most difficult, many of them ■ 
making of^ with hooks, leaders and 
lines and in some cases, even going so 
far as to drag the anglers away with 
them ! In happy relation, also, were the 
favors which included miniature canoe 
paddles, colored photographs of local 
scenes, tiny flasks, leather wrist purses, 
Japanese parasols, confections and other 
dainty trifles. 



Many exquisite toilettes were seen, 
not only among the dancers, but the 
company in attendance as well. 

Mrs. E. B. Vanderveer of Flatbush, 
wore black and white striped chififon 
over white ; her daughter, Miss Ger- 
trude, a pink satin princess gown, and

hundred people enjoyed the fun, the 
company including hotel guests, cot- 
tagers and villagers, and as for down- 
right enthusiasm "the sky was the 
limit." 

Dudensing occupied the box for the 
winners during the first four innings 
and did good work, making a sensa- 
tional one-handed catch of a hot liner 
which he got to first for a double. Car- 
rigan finished up for the hotne team but 
his wildness resulted rather disas- 
irously. Nicholson of The Belgrade

THE SKY THE LIMIT 

Saturday afternoon's baseball game 
between The Belgrade and the Joyce 
Island camp teams proved one of the 
closest and most interesting of the 
season, the hill aggregation winning by 
a score of twelve to eight. Several 



team was the star hitter of the day, 
but going down in an attempt to work 
the White Socks "squeeze play" for a 
tally, after making a three-bagger. 

The score by innings : 

Belgk.vde 4421 1 X— 12 

Joyce's 11 0003 3 — 8 

The youngsters have caught the base- 
ball microbe and as a result, the "Bel- 
grade Second" team has been organized 
and the "Pine Island Juniors" chal- 
lenged for a game which is in progress

Pace 24 



as NoRTHVVARD-Ho! goes to press. It is 
expected that no contest of the summer 
will be more generally enjoyed and 
certain it is that the week has been one 
of sleepless nights for many of the 
players. Master Richard Dudensing is 
pitcher and Joe Graham, assistant 
pitcher. Julian Janeway will catch, 
Carroll Buzby play first, Richard Gra- 
ham, second, Ralph Patterson, third, 
Charles Carrigan, short, and John 
Reipp, Leon Farnum and Wallace Pat- 
terson will cover the field. 

FISHING STILL HOLDS SWAY 

Fishing records are mounting merrily 
upward, the arrival of ex-Senator 
Joseph B. Foraker, who comes to break 
all kinds of records, giving added zest 
to interest in the sport which never 
wanes in popularity here. 

Among the members of the fairer sex 
who are devoted to rod and reel, Mrs. 
R. J. Fooks of Brooklyn, is easily 
among the leaders, taking in a single 
day last week, twenty bass with a three- 
pounder for the largest, and the average 
a pound and a half each. Mr. Fooks 
took several two and a half pounders, 
and Thomas H. McGechin, New York, 
also secured a tine string; the total for 
the day being seventy-five. 

E. G. Vanderveer of Flatbush, who 
has been an annual sojourner for several 
years and rarely misses a day on the 
water, took some exceptionally large 
bass during his visit, his last day creel 
being only a fair average and including 
fish weighing five, four, three and a 
half, three, two and three-quarters and 
two pounds. Mr. W. P. Mallon, his 
friend, enjoyed good sport; a three- 
pounder his best catch. 

Other recent catches out of the ordi- 
nary, include a string of five bass 
weighing four, three and a half, three 
and two pounds, taken by E. Robb of 
New York ; a string of three weighing 
three, three and a half and two and a 
half pounds, for C. F. Nicholson of 
New York ; a string of six, weighing 
three and three-quarters, three and a 
half, three and a quarter, three, two and 



three-quarters and two and a half, for 
Noel S. Davis of Montclair ; three 
weighing three and a half, two and 
three-quarters and two pounds, for W. 
E. Brown of Glen Ridge ; a three and a 
half pound bass by H. M. J. McMichail 
of New York, and a five and a half 
pound pickerel by Augustus G. Cobb, 
also of the Metropolis. 

W. S. Carrigan, Jr., of Philadelphia, 
and three friends, took a string of 
forty-two weighing nearly sixty pounds, 
and Herbert A. Morgan of New York, 
eight which totalled twenty-one and a 
half pounds. Fly fishing is by no means 
unknown even during mid-summer as 
is indicated by a string of fifty bass 
taken one afternoon last week, by W. 
J. Cassard of New York, who rarely 
uses other than the artificial lure. 

golf's POPULARITY UNQUESTIONED 

Golf's popularity remains unques- 
tioned, a large field participating in 
Monday's medal play handicap which 
was in reality, a preliminary round for 
the contest for a handsome trophy 
offered by The Belgrade which is in 
progress as Northward-ho ! goes to 
press. 

D. E. Burger of New York, whose 
allowance was twenty, led with sixty- 
eight, net ; a quadruple tie resulting for 
second place between S. A. Luther of 
New York (22), R. L. King of Dayton 
(S), Byron Riblet of New York (20), 
and B. L. Beal of Boston (35). 

F. F. Sloan of Crandford, whose 
allowance was eight, was third in sev- 
enty-eight, also making the best gross 
score of the day. C. F. Nicholson of 
New York (18), and Manager Charles 
A. Hill (35), made eighty each; G. H. 
Buzby of Philadelphia (9), eighty-one; 
J. M. Muldon of Pensacola (10) eigh- 
ty-two; E. Robb of New York (18),

GOLF IS KING OF SPORTS 

Fore ! is the Cry "Which is Now Awakening Forest 
Echoes in "White Mountain Region 



V ^. r I THROUGHOUT the entire 
^^Uh^ A White Mountain region 
^H^ golf is unquestionably King of 
W< sports. From the little chap 
with tiny clubs and bag, to 
daddy with special "pets,"' the 
ittle mTss to fond mamma, brother 
John to sister Sue, and even on to 
grandpapa and grandmama, the enthu- 
siasm reigns supreme and nothing in 
the White Hills now rivals "fore" in 
awakening forest echoes, with the ex- 
ception of tlie honk of the motor car. 

And all this is of comparatively recent 
growth, gradual growth, permanent 
growth, and with it has come equip- 
ment to meet increased demands. Un- 
questionably the leader in this line — 
the first to recognize the possibilities of 
the .game — was Maplewood, and its ex- 
ample has done much for the section. 
Bretton Woods has always been a 
close second, its selection this season 
for the annual advertising men's tourna- 
ment, a significant indication of the 
present equipment. Kearsarge, also, 
has been a leader. Manager Creamer in 
close touch with the situation at Pine- 
hurst, N. C, early realizing its impor- 
tant place in summer resort sports. 

Profile has a fine course which Gov- 
ernor Eben Draper and General W. N. 
P. Darrow frequent, and Twin Jiloun- 
tain, Fabyans, Sunset Hill, Waumbek 
and Bethlehem all make much of the 
game, tournaments, varied in their 
character, adding to interest in the 
game, the interest of the entire moun- 
tain golfing contingent centered upon 
the coming open handicap on the Mt. 
Washington course. Tennis, also, is a 
favorite sport, the annual White Moun- 
tain championship just ended, at 
Crawfords, the event of the season. 
The winner plays Irving C. Wright, the 
title holder, for the possession of the 



Crawfords Notch challenge cup. W, 
Monroe Roberts, John Darragh and 
Clarence Pratt are prominent contest- 
ants. Tournaments at Maplewood, 
Profile, Waumbek, Kearsarge, Twin 
Mountain, Fabyans, Sunset Hill and 
Bethlehem, will follow. 

Happily combining is baseball which 
claims everybody's attention, social 
pleasures ranging all the way from the 
informal to the formal, with variety 
almost endless, for the entire colony is 
on pleasure bent, always seeking nov- 
elty, and what clever people cannot 
think of under such conditions, is not 
worth mentioning. 

AT THE MAPLEWOOD 

The Maplewood is enjoying an un- 
usualh' successful season, the number 
of those who are here for the entire

AT INTERV.\LE 

Intervale's tourist business tliis year 
is greater than in any July in many 
seasons, due possibly to the fact that 
motor travel is so constantly increasing. 
Scarcely a day passes that a dozen great 
cars do not roll up to the hotel and de- 
posit the pongee-clad freight on the 
veranda, some stopping over night or

tiling tliat swims is the boiic 
lish of HiscaxiK- hay." It was 
llie Keiitiickian wlm ^poke, 
alter hsteii'iig attentively to the tales of 
lish and fishing hy anglers enjoying 
.Maine's sport. "Ponnil ti>r imuinl ho 
has more fight in liiin than any hsh 
sportsmen take, ami what is more, he 
is a thoronghbred from the tip of his 
tail to the point of liis nose. 

"I'm not bone tish crazy, nothing of 
the sort, for I've caught most every- 
thing from the tarpon of the south, to 
the salmon of the Provinces, but I 
take my hat nlT to this Biscayne bay 
beauty w illi new ine.aning, every time 
I try to fiiul his e(|ual. .\iid the funny 
thing about it is, he is very little known 
owing to his scarcity, for he is not to be 
found anywhere except in the locality 
mentioned ; the waters of Biscayne bay 
and rhosc extending some sixty miles 
further south. 

"We discovered him accidentally 
wdiile cruising along the l''loricla coast. 
Happening to put into Miami for sup- 
plies we asked a native wliat there was 
for fi>hing and lie put us in contact 
with the tirst bone fish we ever saw, but 
the 'contact' didn't last but a few min- 
utes! We tried again several times. 
Init always the tish won out. In a few 
days we realized that we had discov- 
ered the 'King of the Waters,' our 
cruise ended : then and there we became 
bone fishermen for life. That year we 
were not. of course, rigged with the 
right sort of tackle, but we had si'orl 
and since then no other fishing has sat- 
isfied our desires. 

"The fish weigh from three to ten 
|ii>iinds, averaging five and six. They 
are dark on the back with silvery sides 



and scales like a tarpon, and built for 
sjieed and endurance, long and slender, 
with a sharp forked tail and a promi- 
nent dor.sal liii, but well knit and pow- 
erful. In appearance tliey look as if 
they might belong to the mullet or her- 
ring family. Tho jaw is conspicuous 
because of a large bone with which 
their food, a shell lish. is crushed; 
hence the name. 

"1 lie fishing is prime from flood to 
full tide, when the fish come in to feed 
on the Hats in water at a depth of from 
eight to ten inches. .As they work 
along their heads go down and their 
tails come out of water, and as they go 
their dorsal fins cut the surface an<l the 
sunsliine is reflected from their silvery 
sides; a pretty picture, surely. 

"The guide works the boat toward 
tlieni carefully, for they are as timid as 
deer, and once frightened, very difilciilt 
to approach. When within sixty or 
eighty feet, which is as close as it is 
possible to get, you cast the bait to a 
siiot in line witli the direction the fish 
are working and not nearer than 
twenty or thirty feet. This bait is one 
of the sliell fish upon which the fish 
feed and it must be absolutely fresh, 
for they have no.ses like full-blooded 
Llewellyns, and they will work away 
from a stale bait as fast as they will 
work towards a fresh morsel, and it is 
just when this hunt for the bait begins, 
that the sport commences. The bait 
must lie immovable until the fish finds 
it. Tlie first indication is a slight nib- 
ble, for tliey are not vigorous biters, 
and they must be hooked for they 
rarely hook themselves. 

"What's he do when hooked? What's 
a race horse do when he gets the 
word? Hut a r.ice horse is not in the 
same class, b'rom three to five hun- 
dred feet of line is taken out on the 



NoRTHW.\RU-HO ! 



Pace 30 



first rush, and this rush is often re- 
peated twice and even three times, 
making from a tliousand to fifteen 
hundred feet of line in all that is taken 
out in this manner. When these bursts 
of speed are over it is fight, fight, fight, 
every inch of the way to tlie boat, the 
runs growing shorter as the fish fails. 
When at last he sees the craft the 
mighty struggle comes, but not having 
the strength to make a dash, he circles 
rapidly about at a distance of from ten 
to twenty feet, often making the cir- 
cuit half a dozen times. When at last he 
comes alongside, belly up, he is dead — 
he has died game — and may be lifted 
into the boat with safety by the guide. 

"My description of the fishing is very 
tame. One must enjoy the experience 
of stalking this crafty denizen of the 
deep and feel his rush 
to appreciate the sport. 
If you desire bait fishing 
that fulfils every re- 
quirement of the ideal, 
take a bone fish. 

"Our tackle is a little 
heavier than that used 
for bass, with eight 
hundred feet of No. 9 
(fine) best flax or linen 
line, a multiplying reel 
and hand-made hammered bronzed 
hooks on treble-twisted best quality gut. 

"To attempt to stop these fish on the 
first rush with heavy tackle would be 
impossible as they would tear any hold 
loose, and to hold them in any manner 
is a trick that must be learned by long 
experience. 

"As a table fish they have few equals, 
either planked or broiled. The sport is 
good from November to April, but at 
its best during the months of Novem- 
ber and December. 

"Don't get the bone fish mixed up 
with the 'lady fish' of the Florida coast, 
which is generally known among the 
natives as the 'bone fish,' for they are 
no kin, except that both are fish. 

"You will not find it easy to get in 
touch with this monster because very 
few fishermen or guides know anything 




about him. William, Charlie and 
George Bickle of Miami, are the only 
men, I believe, who know enough about 
this sport to initiate a novice into it. If 
you are doubtful, get in touch with this 
fish next fall." 



It was the "Reverend" Jones who 
broke the silence which followed. "I 
don't doubt my Southern friend," he 
began, "and I take my hat off to the 
bone fish, but when it comes to unusual 
in fishing the good old Moosehead 
togue takes the palm. In this con- 
nection, I cannot refrain from relating 
a personal experience. 

"You know there are days when the 
water seems literally alive with fish. A 
close student of press articles (here the 
'Rev.' Mr. Jones cast 
a meaning look at the 
newspaper man) might 
lead you to believe that 
this condition was a 
permanent one. How- 
ever, such is not the 
case. On the contrary, 
these occasions are very 
rare, but upon the day 
in question, the lake 
literally seemed to boil 
with fish of all kinds. As we pulled 
away from the wharf big trout, togue 
and salmon could be seen breaking the 
water like porpoises as far as the eye 
could reach, and the surface was white 
with foam made by the thrashing of 
their tails. 

"I had always thought there were 
much larger fish in the lake than had 
ever been taken, but up to that time, I 
had supposed that even the largest 
trout would go over ten pounds and the 
togue not over thirty-five ; but, gentle- 
men, I can assure you that upon the day 
in question, I saw trout, speckled trout 
— brook trout — gentlemen, that would 
tip the scales hard at forty pounds, and 
togue — lakers — gentlemen, which could 
easily have taken a canoe in their jaws 
and crushed it to splinters ! 

"But, strangest of all, as we trolled 



,U Page 



NORIIIW .\KIi-Mo! 



along we could not get a strike. Mon- 
ster fish were breaking all about us. in 
play it seemed, but never a one, even a 
^niall one. paid scant attention to my 
minnow. I bad become listless when a 
~ligbt tug brought me to my senses. 
.\s I reeled slowly in the uncertain 
^train at the end of my line, proved 
without question, that I had hooked a 
good-sized chub. Not caring to waste 
time, 1 attempted to shake tlie nuisance 
■iT my hook, but as I did so, the fish 
■ K)k a new lease of life, and before I 
knew it. my reel was spinning at a 
lively rate. 

" 'Don't you know a cluili when \ ou 
get one?" said Jim. di.sgustedly. 
"Thought I did.' was my reply, 'but 
juess I've made a mistake, for that 
hap fights like a square tail and a 
good three pounder. 

"Just as I thought 
the fish was beginning 
to fail and I was about 
to reel him in, he 
«cemed to regain 
-ircngtli. and a few 
.seconds later, a hand- 
some salmon left the 
water in a long, grace- 
ful leap, seventy feet 
away. Gentlemen, I 
can assure you that I was never mor^- 
thoroughly astonished in my whole life. 
■■ 'Funny way for a salmon to do,' 
lid Jim; 'start like a chub, next act 
like a trout, and finally fight like his 
real self; but he's a dandy for all that, 
and will go seven pounds sure.' 

"It was a lively fight for a while and 
it made the blood thrill to see that fel- 
low take to the sky. but I held him taut 
and it was no use. Presently he 
■unded and 1 knew it would be but a 
lort wliilc before he would be along- 
side and in reach of the landin.g net. 1 
let him rest a moment before forcing 
him and then pressed gently on the line. 
There was no response. I pulled harder, 
but the line stuck fast. Then I gave 
him the butt, and at last tapped on the 
rod with the handle of the landing net, 
because Jim said that would start him 




It anuhmg would, l.ut still it was no 
.i;o. riien I passed the rod to Jim. who 
was getting impatient. 

"'Ifo! Ilo!' lauglied Jim. 'you make 
me smile ! You're on the bottom ! 
You've let that beauty wind himself 
about a rock while you were resting, 
and you might as well pull until some- 
thing gives.' 

"I followed Jim's advice and pulled 
.\s 1 did so there was a movement of 
tile reel and before I knew what had 
happened, fifty, seventy-five, one hun- 
dred feet of line, had spun out so fast 
tliat the silk smoked. Something must 
I>c done, with only fifty feet more on 
the spool, and I slowed the monster up 
a bit, at last stopping the reel, but only 
for a second. It was simply a case of 
give more line or give up the fight. 

""I never saw a sal- 
mon fight like that,' said 
Jim. 'and after you had 
him most done for. 1 
tell you. we will have 
something to tell the 
boys about to-night.' 

"Just then the fish 
started sideways, cir- 
cling clear about the 
canoe half a dozen 
times, which tired him 
out a bit, and when he started off again 
he went so slowly that he got the canoe 
started, and I was able to keep the reel 
firm. Faster and faster we went, how- 
ever, as the canoe gained in momentum, 
and in i\\e minutes we were heading 
for shore at the rate of ten miles an 
liour. On we went past the big hotel 
.md down to the Sand Bar before the 
fish tired, and we were able to reel the 
lino ill. Gradually Jim headed the 
canoe for the shallow water of the 
point, and soon we saw, flapping and 
llouiidering in about three feet of water, 
a monster l;iker ; will you believe me, 
gentlemen; <i mammi'th toj^uc! 

"Closer and closer he came to the 
canoe, but our net was not big enough, 
and jumping into the water, Jim 
grabbed the fish by the gills and threw 
him into the canoe. It was just two 



hours and three-quarters from the 
time I had that first faint nibble and 
my strength was well nigh exhausted. 
He was the most remarkably formed 
fish I had ever seen and Jim estimated 
his weight at forty pounds. The fish 
was not of unusual length, but he was 
as thick through as he was deep; a 
record breaker. We had fished enough 
for one day and paddled quickly home. 
Arriving we weighed our fish on the 
store scales. Thirty-nine pounds he bal- 
anced evenly. Just as we were about 
to take him to the icehouse, his peculiar 
shape was remarked upon. 

" 'Let's cut him open,' volunteered 
someone, evidently thinking we had 
loaded him with lead to give additional 
weight. That exasperated me and 
whipping out a knife, I sl't the monster 
up tlie belly. Inside something silver 
gleamed and out came a six and a half 
pound salmon. A light began to dawn 
upon me and I ripped the salmon open 
and, will you believe me, gentlemen, in- 
side was a three-pound trout! Then 
and there I had an idea where the chub 
I first hooked was, and open catne the 
trout. Sure enough, inside was a 
pound chub and in his mouth was my 
hook and tlic iiiiiinov.' I used for bait! 

"Gentlemen, I have stated facts 
clearly, without exaggeration. This 
was many years ago, but half a dozen 
people saw the fish weighed and opened 
afterwards. If they were alive 1 could 
prove the story." 

And the crowd upset chairs in its 
eagerness to reach the open air. 



The Clever Crow Can Count 

"The crow's a stupid bird in some 
ways," remarked Peter, the guide, "but 
he's a star in others. 

"In the spring of the year you can 
hide in a thick underbrush and call 
scores of them within shooting dis- 
tance by the poorest kind of an imita- 
tion of a young or disabled crow, and 
if you happen to drop a crippled bird 
from a flock the whole bunch will hang 
around and try to protect him while you 
pick them off, one by one. But the fact 
remains that a crow can count. If he 
sees three people go into a cornfield and 
hide in a building or a brush pile, he is 
going to see three people go away be- 
fore he comes back. 

"Further, if he sees a dog with a 
dainty which he happens to want he is 
going to get that morsel whether or no, 
even if he has to fly off and get a com- 
panion to come back with him and nip 
the dog's tail to attract his attention, so 
he can run off with the dainty. In the 
same way the crow robs the nests of 
birds which are good fighters and of 
which he is afraid, by working together, 
one or a part of a flock attracting at- 
tention while the remainder commit the 
theft. 

".■\nd." Peter concluded, "there is not 
the slightest doubt but crows hold con- 
ventions and discuss ways and means. 
If you doubt this, all you have to do is 
to find a bunch of the birds getting 
ready to go south. Seen and heard 
tlicni, haven't you?"

MAINE'S PRECIOUS GEMS 

Written from the Inside 



\.^ I A QL'AIXT little village is

^Pl^ ^r"!!!) i)f iiK'ii tliDSc who prac- 

W ' tically control tlic market 

I Ml Maine's precious gems, 
riiough little Unmvn tip to 
ivil^hin tlie past few years, and still very 
rare, comparatively speaking, the de- 
mand fcir these jewels already exceeds 
tlie Mippl>. for people of relinemcnt 
have been quick to realize tlieir exquis- 
ite and unusual quality, and as a nat- 
ural consequence, tlie supply is "cor- 
nered." If yon want Maine gems you 
must get them from those on the "in- 
si<le." Jewellers li.ive a few — they 
would like mort — hut they were a little 
l)it too eager, a bit too entliusiastic, at 
the start and Norway's coterie started 
a little combination of its own — a com- 
bination absolutely unique — and Maine 
gems arc not to be found in any great 
quantities, on the "market." Clever 
men have tried to buy, but Yankee 
shrewdness and sentimental attachment 
ha\e, thus far. won out. Norway 
expects great things of Maine gems, and 
Norway can afford and is prepared to 
wait, if necessary. 



"This fondness for precious gems is, 
as you know," says one of the con- 
noisseurs, "almost entirely a matter of 
sentiment ; this sentiment creating the 
demand and the demand fixing the price. 
Take the diamond, for instance. What 
gives it value? I'irst of all, because it 
has been boomed as no other precious 
gem has ever been boomed, for as a 



asks the 
l)rice and 



m.itter of f.ict, the iliamond is to maii.\, 
the least interesting of the precious 
gems because it lacks fohr. To be sure 
it has wonderful brilliancy and rare 
fa.scination, but the majority of people, 
there can be no denying, want a 
"sparkler" simply because it is "the 
thing" to possess one, ,iiid tliis very 
largely due to the fact that back of the 
diamond is the most powerful jewel 
trust in the world and nothing is being 
left undone to maintain its un(|uestioncd 
supremacy. 

"Ever tried to get a price on a dia- 
mond ? Do it .sometime and it will open 
your eyes tin the question of values. 
'\\1iat ilo ynu want for it ? 
ilealer. Tell him to lix the 
he'll refuse point blank or hedge. It 
you urge him he'll tell you the 
only way he can do this is to re- 
move the stone from its settini; 
and turn it over to an expert 
for weighing and testing. If you 
will follow this out in a half a 
diii-en cises \ on will lind ;i half .1 
dozen prices. Briefly staled, there is 
absolutely no definite lixcd value for 
in-crage stones. It's a matter of senti- 
ment as I said in opening, or per- 
haps, if you choose to put it that way, 
a matter of individual taste. To be 
sure, a diamond is worth so much a 
carat according to grade, but there's 
also still quite an extensive range left 
for personal opinion as to what con- 
stitutes this value. When the value 
of the stone is a high one it comes 
in the unusual gem which everybody 
wants, the gem which is particularly

adapted or de- 
sired for some 
special purpose, 
which is r e- 
m a r k a I3 1 e in 
size, brilliancy 
or color, and 
the price climbs. 
The more some- 
body wants that 
particular g e m 
the more some- 
body else wants 
it, and if it 
liappcns to be one that is 
not for sale, tlieii the 
people who desire it 
console themselves with 
tryin.? to figure out just 
what it is really worth ! 

"Now that's much the 
case with Maine gems 
to-day, and the very best 
evidence, to my mind, 
that these gems have 
arrived. The public is 
bidding for the rare 
specimens in just this 
way, because the posses- 
sors hold them at high, 
sometimes priceless val- 
ues, because of their sen- 
timental association, par- 
ticular adaptability or de- 
sirability for some special 
purpose, or their remark- 
able size, brilliancy or 
color, and as a result, 
values are increasing 
year after year, making 
thcni from the invest- 
ment standpoint alone, 
big dividend payers ; 
good collateral to buy, 
hold, or sell. All that is 
really needed, as I see 
it. is for those who own 
the gems to really want 
to sell them and this will 
be brought about before 
long, without doubt. 

"The best evidence of 
this is found in the fact 



that those who control the situation 
have already fixed what the diamond 
trust has evidently not fixed, a definite 
scale of prices, a uniform sum, per 
carat, for average gems of three grades 
of perfection, influenced almost entirely 
by absence of flaws in the crystals. Of 
course when a gem is of exceptional 
size or remarkable as regards to bril- 
liancy or color, particularly adapted or 
desired for some special purpose, the 
matter of taste or sentiment enters into 
the question and the price is governed 
accordingly, but in a general way, the 
owner of a Maine gem may possess a 
definite knowledge as to its real value, 
and this value is pretty generally 
accepted in the jewel markets of the 
world, for though Maine's gems are not 
to be found in abundance outside of a 
limited circle, their value is known and 
recognized everywhere at the present 
time. Further, they are being studied, 
cut and adapted for the special purpose 
of bringing out to the best advantage 
their distinct individual character and 
they are already regarded as in a class 
by themselves. 

"Take, for instance, a tourmaline. 
The finest specimen in the world is in 
possession of our neighbor, Mr. Loren 
B. Merrill of Paris, in reality a portion 
of Norway ; the nodule weighing four 
hundred and eleven carats, which allow- 
ing half weight loss in cutting, would 
furnish two unparalleled gems of one 
hundred carats each. The next finest 
specimen is in the possession of Tift'any 
& Company, weighing sixty-nine and 
one-fourth carats, also from this section. 
The tourmaline is valued because of its 
exquisite color, many declaring the 
deeper hues the equal of the emerald, 
which, by the way, Maine yet hopes to 
find, for the tourmaline is in reality, an 
emerald of a distinct hue. Other tour- 
malines are found in California, but they 
are unquestionably inferior to ours in 
color and less translucent and brilliant. 
Connecticut is the only other State in 
the Union, I believe, where they have 
been found and only in small quantities. 
Brazil, Ceylon and Russia are the only

other competitors in the market, tlie out- 
put slijjhily in advance or California in 
ipiality. litil not the equal of .Maine. 

"TIk- largest a(|uamarine crystal in the 
world and which is now as line a gem as 
can he found anywhere, weighing one 
hinidreil and thirty-three and threc- 
(|uarlers carats, and owned by the Field- 
Cohnnbian Museum of Chicago, came 
from Norway, and we of ns who are 
closely associated with this industry, 
believe ih.il we have in our 'royal' ame- 
thyst a gem wliich for its peculiar rich- 
ness of color, is not to be e(|ualled the 
world over. Many of our pearls arc 
ded.ired lo be the superior of the Orien- 
tals because of their delicate tints, and 
our senii-i)reeious gems also lead; Ox- 
ford county having no rival in the pro- 
duction of rose quartz, with the possible 
exception of the lllick Hills. 

"Our cesium beryl, we are enthusi- 
tic enough to assert, possesses qualities 
which even the much lauded diamond 
lacks, and our golden beryl is one of the 
r.ircst of gems, because of its peculiar 
richness and warmth of color. Our pink 
tourmalines are admirably adapted fur 
use in coml)iii;ition. l)nt not tile ei|U,d of 
'he green or ,is nuuii sought after. '1 he 
topaz and garnet are dainty stones which 
have a fascination for many, but which 
are ranked by us in the lower grade. 

"Wonderfully unique and etTectivc 
ornaments are possible with the smoky 
ipiartz, opaque tourmaline and other 
specimens which when developed, will 
possess all of the fascination of tur- 
quoise, jade and other semi-precious 
gems which have long been used for 
ornaments of an unusual character; the 
idea, no doubt, originating with the 
[•"gyptians. 

"In addition to the use of these stones 
in the manner indicated, their adapta- 
bility for various decorative purposes is 
.1 fe.iture which should not be over- 
looked. l-"urther, we find that we have 
many gems unknown to the United 
States geological survey, for some of 
which we have provided names of our 
own, and some, we believe, which arc not 
to be found elsewhere in the world. 



Our gems range 
from the achor- 
ile or colorless 
tourmalines l o 
all shades of 
green including 
t h e rSrazilian 
emeralds. y e 1-

fact that the lirst mine 
of precious stones was 
discovered on Mt. .Mica 
in iSjo, by 1 Ion. V.. L. 
Hamlin and his brother. 
1 l.innibal 1 landin. at one 
time Vice-President of 
the United States, this 
mine is the only one 
which has been worked 
exclusively and systemat- 
ically for gems alone, 
and this for barely more 
ih.m a period of tweiUy 
years. In this connection 
it is interesting to note 
that very few gems have 
been taken from here 
within the past few years, 
illustrative of the difticid- 
ties attending the work, 
for this is. without ques- 
tion, one of the richest 
deposits in tlic state. 
Other mines have been 
worked for gems in con- 
nection with the produc- 
tion of mica, (|U.irtz and 




NoRTHWARD-HO! 



Page 12 



feldspar, tliree important commercial 
products, and from time to time, other 
deposits have been mined intermit- 
tently, but even at the present time, in 
spite of the interest and the demand, no 
one has yet undertaken the work along 
systematic lines vvdiich can be classed as 
distinctly modern. In view of this the 
results obtained, while remarkable, are 
merely indicative of the real possibilities. 
"These gems are only found within a 
fifteen or twenty-mile radius of Norway, 
are exceedingly difficult to locate and 
only through indications of surface 
croppings, and the mines are owned and 
controlled by not more than half a dozen 
men. The crystals are always found in 
pockets, filled with sand and otlier crys- 
taline substances, in pegmatite (coarse 
granite) veins. The theory is that these 
pockets were formed by the slow cooling 
of this material in the presence of mois- 
ture and under great pressure. 

"The basis of all these gems is largely 
silica and aluminum, the addition of 
other elements giving each gem its 
peculiar character. For instance, the tour- 
maline is a complex silicate of potasli, 
lithia. florine alumina, iron, magnesia 
and boron ; the opaque being used com- 
mercially as an ore for the mineral glu- 
cinum. The very rare mineral, caesium 
oxide, gives the CKsium beryl its 
peculiar character. Florine tints the 
topaz and so on down through the list. 
Of these gems the topaz is the hardest 
and rated at eight, two degrees less than 
the diamond and one below the ruby and 
sapphire. The beryl is next, ranking 
with the emerald ; the tourmaline, seven 
and a lialf. and the amethyst seven." 



Maine as a state is awakening to the 
possibilities of this, one of her newest 
industries, and the attention of the 
United States Geological Survey is also 
turned in this direction for it is gener- 
ally believed that vast wealth lies hidden 
in the clover-clad hills which surround 
the quaint little village of Norway and 
the unique group of men who practically 
control the Maine gem market. 



But for the present, the world at 
large must wait a bit ; wait while the 
little coterie dreams and schemes 'mid 
wreaths of tobacco smoke in the envi- 
ronment of specimen-laden cabinets ; 
wait until it makes up its mind just what 
it wishes to do; and, lastly, decides that 
it is ready to barter for gold its most 
treasured possessions ; possessions 
'round which associations hover; pos- 
sessions which have been sympathetic 
companiotis ; sullen in storm, radiant in 
sunshine ! 

"No, I wouldn't want to cut up //(17/ 
matri.x." remarked one, "it's too remark- 
able a specimen. Note the exquisite rela- 
tion between the snow-white stone and 
the rich green crystal. Gawd, isn't she 
beautiful. See her glow! What a gem 
that would make — but, no, 1 wouldn't 
want to cut Ihal up; it's too remarkable 
a specimen. 

"What do I ask for that gem? Now, 
really, you mustn't ask me to fix a price 
on that — ^liut, isn't she a hummer! Just 
look at her in this light. Now come 
over here. Note how she shifts from 
pale blue to delicate green ? See the pin- 
points of crimson, orange, yellow and 
purple? Now, really, you mustn't ask 
me to fix a price on that — but, isn't she 
a hummer ! 

"You wouldn't want to sell tliat par- 
ticular gem if yon owned it; now zvould 
you, honest?" 

And here you have the whole story of 
gem values in three paragraphs ; the sen- 
timental association which fixes the price 
on unusual stones. 

These treasures are dear to these mei\ 
They appreciate not that a beautiful 
thing belongs to the world — they are al- 
most selfish in their viewpoint and 
happiness — but the day is not far distant 
when the commercial element will enter 
in and more will be known of these ex- 
quisite gems which are now seldom 
seen except when their owners handle 
them tenderly, lovingly, in mystic cham- 
bers and the presence of the chosen few !

THERE IS NO JOY AT KINEO! 

Tacconnet Team Breaks Baseball Charm and Moosehead 
is Plunged in Sorrow; Trying to Forget 



O 



H ! somewhere in 
this favored land, the 



|fl|^ sun is shining bright; the 

^F f h:\nd is playing somewhere, 
and somewhere hearts are 
light; and somewliere men are 
laughing, and little children shout, but 
there is no joy at Moosehead — the Ta- 
connet team won out !" 

Just as true it is to-day as it was 
when Mr. Ernest L. Thayer wrote 
"Casey at the Bat" and Kineo mourns ; 
mourns because victory for the crack 
home team has come to be regarded 
almost as certain as Casey's hitting, but 
the score looming up in big black let- 
ters, tells the story which none can 
deny and Kineo is trying to forget ; 
girding itself for new battles, longing 
for' vengeance. 

It was snappy, clean-cut baseball, 
however, throughout, with spectacular 
play as its featues, each team scoring in 
the first and third innings, the visitors 
gaining a lead in the sixth, Kineo ral- 
lying in the seventh, but falling just 
short of tying the score in the attempt 
and failing to make good in the last two 
turns at the bat, losing five to three. 
Herd, who occupied the box for the 
winners, proved a puzzler, striking out 
ten men and having things pretty much 
his own way when hits meant runs, 
while Ekstrom of the locals was not in 
form and hit rather freely, the men he 
fooled completely numbering only three. 
The player who contributed most to 
Kineo's undoing, was the six foot short 
stop who was here, there and every- 
where, ten feet at a jump or twenty 
feet in the air, and nothing got by him, 
— infield, short stop, short center or left 
— the good-natured way in which he 
performed his remarkable stunts win- 
ning the unqualified applause of the 
gallery which was, naturally, somewhat 



pained at tlie resultant consequences. 

The story of the second game is 
briefly told, for the less said about it 
the better for it was, without doubt, 
one of the poorest exhibitions of baseball 
ever seen here, the only redeeming 
feature being the brace the home team 
made in the seventh and eighth innings, 
the final score of fifteen to twelve in 
favor of the visitors. The home team 
pitched a chap named Welch of Oak- 
land, to make good for the loss of 
Ryan of the University of Maine, and 
before they realized just what was hap- 
pening, fifteen runs had been piled up 
in bunches of three, five, two and five in 
the first four innings. Fellows finished 
out the game and while he is not re- 
garded as a pitcher, only two men man- 
aged to make the round of the hases 
during his five innings in the box. 

The score by innings: 

Taconnet 10 I 002001 — 5 

Kineo loioooio — 3 

Taconnet ,s 52 50000 o — 15 

Kineo 21000252 o — 12

GOLF LEADS AT BELGRADE 

Big Gallery Follows Brilliant Play in Final Round of 
Annual Match Play Handicap 



V ^ IC^ OLF carried off the honors 

\aL' VJ of the week at The Bel- 

^H^ grade, interest centering in the 

^Ff match play tournament for the 

~|Iiandsome hotel trophy, Henry 

C. Nelson of Pittsfield, Mass., 

winning the closely contested finals 

from J, M. Muldon of Pensacola, Fla., 

two up and one to play, in the presence 

of a large gallery. 

Mr. Muldon was generally regarded 
as the "favorite" and while he played an 
excellent long game, he was not in fortn 
on the putting greens and this with the 
advantage which Mr. Nelson had in the 
way of a handicap, lost him the cup. 
The turning point of the match, how- 
ever, came on the eleventh hole, where 
Mr. Nelson holed a difficult uphill putt 
from several feet ofif the green, follow- 
ing it up with wins on the next holes. 
In the semi-final Mr. Nelson defeated 
Mrs. Sloan, five up, and Mr. Muldon 
beat Mr. Sloan, two up. In the first 
round Mr. Nelson defeated Mr. Duden- 
sing, seven up ; Mr. Muldon, Mr. Rohh, 
two up and one to play, Mr. Sloan, Mr. 
Riblet, four up and two to play ; and 
Mrs. Sloan, Mrs. Zuckerman, five up 
and four to play. 

In qualification a tie resulted for first 
place between Mr. Nelson whose medal 
allowance was eighteen, and Mrs. Henry 
Zuckerman of New York, whose handi- 
cap was forty, at seventy-three each, 
Mr. Muldon (ii), was second in sev- 
enty-six, Richard Dudensing of New 
York (35), third in seventy-seven, and 
F. F. Sloan of Crandford (8), fourth in 
seventy-eight. Eagleson Robb of New 
York (19), made eighty; Mrs Sloan 
(22), eighty-one; Byron C. Riblet of 
New York (12), and J. A. Mahony of 
New York (30), eighty-two each; Frank 
Dudensing of New York (18), and R. 
S. King of Dayton (3), eighty-four 



each; G. H. Bushby of Philadelphia 
(10), eighty-five; Leon Sherburne of 
New York (30), Manager Charles A. 
Hill (35). and E. T. Lord of Pittsburg 
(26), eighty-six each; F. F. Wood of 
Rutherford (13), eighty-seven; R. M. 
King of Dayton (11), eighty-nine; Miss 
Zuckerman of New York (50), ninety- 
two; Miss Sheridan of Brooklyn (40), 
ninety-three ; Mrs. Eagleson Robb of 
New York {50), ninety-nine; Mrs. E. 
T. Lord of Pittsburg (26), one hundred 
and three; Mrs. E. B. Boyd of New 
York (50), one hundred and twelve, 
and Mrs. Herbert A. Morgan of New 
York (50), one hundred and thirty-five; 
the best eight net scores qualifying for 
the matcli play rounds. 

PINE ISLAND JUNIORS WIN 

There was nothing disappointing in 
Friday afternoon's baseball game be- 
tween The Belgrade "second" and the 
Pine Island juniors teams except, possi- 
bly, the score which was eleven to six 
in favor of the visitors. Everybody 
turned out for the game, villagers walk- 
ing up the hill, cottagers motoring 
across the lake, guests thronging the 
verandas and guides and others the 
spacious lawns, while fond parents held 
tlie "pack in leash" long enougli to allow 
for luncheon and the usual half-hour of 
quiet for digestion. 

With two runs for each team in tin, 
first inning the prospect was pleasing 
and interest was maintained by the 
failure of either side to score in the 
second and the making of one run each 
in the third. In the fourtli inning, 
however, the camp boys legged it around 
the bases for four runs shutting out 
their opponents at their turn at the bat, 
and while they failed to score in the next 
three innings, they allowed only one of 
The Belgrade players to cross the home

plate. Things brightened up a bit in the 
eighth inning when The Belgrade team 
scored two runs and came within an ace 
of tying, but the visitors made good 
with two runs at their try, adding two 
more in the ninth inning and recording 
a goose egg against the hotel ball-toss- 
ers. Unquestionably the game was won 
by superior batting by the camp boys, 
for otherwise the teams were very 
evenly matched.

SENATOR FORAKER LEADS 

Ex-Senator Joseph B. Foraker has 
led in the recent fishing records, missing 
not a single day upon the water during 
his stay and as enthusiastic over the 
chicken and chowder dinners prepared 
by his guide, as with the sport itself. 
Thursday's catch may be taken as a fair 
average, forty-two bass ranging from a 
pound and a half to three and a half 
pounds being taken with bait and twen- 
ty-two with the fly. Already the distin- 
guished Ohioan is planning to return 
next season for the summer. His son, 
Arthur, who accompanied him. is fully 
as enthusiastic an angler as his father. 

Among other exceptional catches was 
a string of one hundred bass, averaging 
nearly two pounds in weight, with three 
and four pounders at the head, taken by 
Mr. and Mrs. Al Powell of New York, 
the larger proportion of them, of course, 
returned to the water. 

Mr. A. S. Hammersly of New York, 
took three fine bass totaling nine and a 
half pounds in weight, and ten perch 
weighing seven and a half pounds. 

Messrs. H. F. Hovey and Robert 
Lovett of New York, are back from a 
wilderness fishing trip, declaring that 
they must have found the original "Tur- 
ner pond" described in the issue of 
NoRTHWARD-Ho! for August 7th. In an 
hour's fishing on the evening of the 
arrival, eighty trout were taken on the 
fly and this is but a fair sample of the 
sport they enjoyed during the outing. 
Not the least enjoyable feature of the 



trip were tlie trips by spotted trail, to 
various nearby ponds where the trout 
were always eager. So enthusiastic are 
they that tliey are already planning a 
trip for September fishing when the 
guides declare it is "good !" 

FOR MRS. ZUCKERMAN's CUP 

Interest of the entire hotel is centered 
in a tennis tournament for a trophy con- 
tributed by Mrs. Henry Zuckerman of 
New York, who is always ready to man- 
ifest visible interest in anything which 
contributes to the enjoyment of the 
guests. The fie^d of entries is a goodly 
one and the cool verandas which over- 
look the court are crowded with inter- 
ested onlookers. Other tournaments of 
a similar character will follow during 
the weeks to come.

entertained Mr. and Mrs. Herbert A. 
Morgan and Mrs. E. B. Boyd of New 
York, and Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Buzby of

.M.\NV MOTORIST-S 

The intlu.x of motor tourists contin- 
ues un.ibated. hardly an hour of the day 
passing that some car is not unloading 
11^ pongee clad freight at the door; and 
irom all directions they come and to all 
directions they go. Some come for 
-liort trips, others are crossing the con- 
linent and a very large percentage are 
making some one of the popular tours 
as is evident hy the "guide books" they 
carry and which are now as much a 



pan of the etiuipment of a car as the 
born or siren. Happy, sunburned faces, 
always, they are, faces which emphasize 
the joys which come from contact with 
fresh air and sunshine ; a new phase of 
American life which is bringing many in 
touch with nature who have previously 
been hardly aware of its existence. 

Many private yachts arc also putting 
in for short visits on trips along the 
coast, their gleaming hulls, shining brass 
and white .sails adding to the beauty of 
the deep blue of the ocean which back- 
grounds them.

THE ART OF FLY CASTING 



A Spciri tor Moderns 



^~~ ■'T~'II1''RE is nothing espe- 

^UkC- ■'- cially »r«' about fly cast- 

|fl|^ n\n. Claudius Acliamus refers 

^Tf to it in tlie third century, and 

it lias been indulged in more 

or less ever since. "The 

Macedonians," he writes, "'who live on 

the banks of the river Astrseus. which 

llows midway between Bcrca and Thes- 

- donia, are in the habit of catching a 

jiarticular fish in that river by means of 

a rty called 'hippurus ;" a very strange 

insect it is — bold and troublesome like 

;dl of its kind ; in size a hornet, marked 

like a wasp an<l buzzing like a bee. 

"When one of the llsh sees the ll\ 
llnaling down towards him. he ap- 
proaches, swimming gently under the 
water, fearing lest his prey should be 
scared. Then, drawing nearer under- 
neatli. he sucks in the fly as a wolf 
Itches a sheep from the fold, or an 
.iglc a goose from the farm yard, and. 
having done so, disappears under the 
ripple as silently as he came." 

The ancient writer then goes on to say 
that it was difficult for the fishermen to 
use the natural fly as a bait, owing to 
the fact that at the touch of the human 
hand the delicate bloom of nature dis- 
appeared and the wings were destroyed. 
"Therefore." he continues, "they over- 
reach the lisb by an artful device. 
Fiound the hook they twist scarlet wool, 
made from the feathers which grow 
under the wattles of the cock, brought 
up to the proper color by wax. 

"The rod used is six feet in length 
.ind the line is of the same length. Then 
the angler lets fall the lure. The fish. 



r i, n 1 9 I H r 

'M'Ho 190 
ts boau- 



altracted by tlie color, and 

draws close, and judging from 

tiful appearance that he will fiblMllPT" 

marvelous banquet, forthwith opens his 

mouth, but is caught by the hook and 

bitter indeed is the feast he enjoys, in- 

asnuich as he is captured!" 



There is much remaining to-day of 
the sport Claudius describes. To be 
sure the "rod" used is somewhat longer 
than "six feet" and. doubtless, much 
frailer, and the line of the "sam.- 
length" would hardly he sufficieiU foi . 
the modern fly lisherman. but the make- 
up of the fly, generally speaking, has 
changed little from the third century to 
the present time. 

Round modern hooks they still twist 
the scarlet wo )l and the lures in whicii 
t'le scarlet is predominant, are still the 
greatest killers. The "two wings" are 
still secured to the hook and the "feath- 
ers which grow under the wattles of 
the cock" are indispensable to the mod- 
ern tly tycr. The third century fly 
fisherman certainly made the right start. 

But twentieth century fly aislin^ is 
vastly different from the sport of the 
murky past, a distitict branch of sport, 
independent and radically different from 
//_v fish:":: ii>'lf; frequently enjoyed by 
those who ar- not even "lisliermeii." 
To be sure the underlying principles are 
the same, but the real attraction les in 
the joy of contest, the exhilaration of 
contest, the gradual approach to the 
ideal which separates the few from the 
many. Just as target and trap shooting

interests some who never luint, so 
lly casting holds its devotees captive. 

Such rapid strides has this sport made 
during the past few years that there are 
now no less than a score of cluhs 
throughout the country given up entirely 
to the pastime and so fascinated have 
many anglers become with it that they 
have given up fly fishing entirely. With 
this devotion records have naturally 
soared upward until the figure has crepi 
from ninety and a hundred feet to one 
lumdrcil and fifty and even better. 



where the weight of the rod is not lim- 
ited. In the distance and accuracy 
events, the weight of rods must not 
exceed eight and a half ounces, and in 
accuracy and delicacy, not over five and 
one-half ounces. 

Competitors may consult their own 
inclinations in choice of line, but they 
must not be knotted or weighted. The 
leader must be single gut and not less 
than si.x feet or more than nine feet in 
length. One fly must be used, which 
must not be larger than number five. 




THE ANGLER LETS FALL THE LURE 



Stated contests began in an informal 
way among the club nieniljers. Then 
they branched out to contests between 
different clubs and now national and in- 
ternational cotnpetitions are annua! 
events. In each contest there are three 
events ; distance, accuracy and delicacy, 
governed by these conditions : 

All rods must be single handed and 
all casting done in that manner. The 
rods must not exceed eleven feet in 
length, except in the distance event 



and on which the snell must not e.xceed 
six inches. Hooks must be broken at 
the bend. 

All casting is done from a platform at 
least eight feet square with the surface 
not more than eighteen inches above the 
water line. Each contestant is allowed 
five minutes in which to cast for dis- 
tance. He stands upon a platform and 
makes his cast parallel with a buoy line 
or measuring board, upon which is 
accurately marked the points of dis- 



1 1 Page 



NoRTIIWARn-Ho! 



laiici'. The length of the cast is meas- 
ured from the edge of the platform to 
the spot reached by the fly. Only fair 
overhead casting is permitted, and no 
cast in which the fly is missing counts. 

In the distance and accuracy contest 
three six-inch buoys are placed, fifty, 
lifty-fivc and sixty feet distant from tlu- 
edge of the casting platform, and live 
casts are made at each buoy. Xot more 
than one minute is allowed to extend the 
line to the buoy cast at. When the con- 
testant has extended his line and is 
ready, he calls "score" and the next live 
casts are counted. Not more tlian five 
casts each are allowed to reach the sec- 
ond and lliird buoys before callini; 
"score." If the lly falls within one fool 
of the buoy cast at it is considered per- 
fect ; for each foot in excess of one 
foot a demerit is made. The aver- 
age of the sum totals of such demer- 
its give the demerit percentage, and thif 
deducted from one hundred per cent 
gives the actual percentage. 

In the accuracy and delicacy contest 
there are three six-inch buoys at a dis- 
tance of thirty-five, forty and forty-five 
feet, and five casts are made at each. 
Accuracy is judged as in the distance 
and accuracy contest, and in addition, a 
record of delicacy is kept; one hundred 
per cent being considered perfect. Th's 
is determined by two judges and the ref- 
eree who marks the per cent to which, 
in his opinion, the contestant is entitled. 
The average of these percentages is the 
total. The average of accuracy percent- 
ages is the actual percentage. Loose 
line on the platform or coil in the hanrl. 
is not permitted in this event. 



The rods used by us in the distance 
iwuts," says a member of a prominent 
western chib, "are from eight and a halt 
to ten ounces in weight. The line is 
generally tapered running from "D" in 
the center to "H" at the end. Many 
of our members can do one hundred and 
ten feet, all the result of practice, and 
they are hardly to be rated in the expert 
class at the present time." 



Thcr Intellerguncc of Ther Trout 

"Flier iiilellergunce of ilier trout is 
remarkuble," cumiiunled Joe. "Why, 
my little boy had er tame trout once — 
ther one that fell in llier lake an' was 
(/ri)ti')i<-</ — that hail more sense than 
most human bcin's. 

"Xo, he couldn't talk, but he knew 
what you war s.iyin' just ez well ez i( 
he could, an' as fer doiu' tricks, no dawg 
could equal hiiu. It diiln't take more'n 
three days ter wean him er water an' 
inside of er week he'd turn side springs 
an" summersaults at conimaud, or hop 
erbout ther room on his tail, iiailin' flies 
;t every jump. 

"His best stunt, however, was ter 
Uirn hisself inside out an' swim bac- 
cuds." 



Pete the Strong Man 

"Pete was er strong man," com- 
mented Sandy, the guide. "Why I've 
seen him step into er bushel basket, 
grasp ther haixlles an" lift himself 
twenty feet clear o" ther ground!" 

".Xnofher trick o' bis was ler climb to 
her top of er ladder, pull ther ladder up 
in' climb another length, but try as he 
'.vould, he couldn't never git iiior'n two 
engths up !" 



He's an Awful Mess 

Ot all the tish I've ever met 

The queerest is the Jolly-et. 

Does he think he's handsome — well, I ?ucss ;' 

liut, really. lie's an " awful mess!"

MERRYMAKING AT BELGRADE 

Men Dress in "Women's Garb for Annual Golf Burlesque 
and Entire Colony Enjoys the Fun 



't~T^ j /« LL Belgrade entered into 

^VJk«- /i. the spirit of Saturday's 

H|^ golf burlesque and all Belgrade 

W' is still laughing in recollection 

of the frolic, for no event of 

the season has provided more 

genuine merriment than this affair which 

is now anticipated from 3'ear to year. 

The conditions were that the men wear 

women's costumes and that the women 

be invited to participate ! No, there 

is absolutely no truth in the rumor that 
anything more was expected of them. 
They were simply asked to /'articipdtc — 
positively — and no matter what you hear, 
believe it not, for the men brook no 
rivalry on this the one day of the year 
when they are privileged to make them- 
selves look "sweet ;" to demonstrate 
that men can wear women's clothes. 

Originally the idea was, no doubt, to 
have the men wear "skirts," just for the 
sake of convincing them what a nuisance 
they are, hut it was not skirts so much 
as adornment visible and otherwise, 
which appealed and few, indeed, were 
the costumes which were not complete 
for men dress not so much to please 
themselves as others ; they are undenia- 
bly vain ! Naturally the results were 
combinations wonderful to liehold, 
ranging all the way from those which 
Madge of the servants" quarters, told 
Mabel, couldn't possibly be men. 10 the 
caricatures which couldn't possibly have 
been anything else and lived, with all 
the wide range for variety which these 
two extremes separate. Not the least 
ludicrous and amusing features of the 
affair were the individual interpretations 
each masquerader gave to make his im- 
personation clear. 

For instance Mr. Leslie Duke, in styl- 
ish white linen coat suit, hat and pink 
veil, Mr. Leon Sherburne in pale blue 
linen coat suit, hat and blue veil, Mr, 



Eagelson Robb in vvliite shirt waist suit, 
black belt and sailor hat, Mr. Harold 
Hovey in white lingerie dress and b'ack 
hat faced with pink, and Mr. Monroe 
DeMott in sailor suit and hat, looked for 
all the world like a bevy of siunning 
college girls and they played the part. 
On the other hand Mr. C. M. De Mott 
in gingham gown and vast expanse of 
white apron, Mr. G. H. Buzby in white 
linen suit and lingerie hat, Mr. Donald 
Burger in calico gown and small bon- 
net, or Mr. J. A. Mahony in dainty, 
frilly petticoats, pink silk negligee and 
stunning black picture hat, were typical 
of the opposite extreme. 

Mr. B. L. Beal as "Baby Beal," in long 
white baby dress and muslin cap from 
beneath which peeped forth bobbing 
curls, was irresistible. Mr. R. L. King 
made a rough and ready automobile girl 
and Mr. Henry Zuckerinaii in linen 
gown and large black hat, a luL^ky golf 
girl. Mr. F. F. Sloan wore a short 
lielted dress with large Dutch collar ami 
anklet socks, and Mr. Seymour Carri- 
gan wore a striped tennis dress with 
cretonne coat. Masters Robert Lovett, 
Carrol Buzby and Richard Dudensing 
were "cute little girls" in short frocks 
and wide ribbon hair ornaments. 

The trophies of the afternoon, offered 
by Mr. Robb. included a book of trout 
and bass flies for the best net score 
made by men, anil a sterling loving cup 
for the women, but the winning of these 
trophies was attended by much diffi- 
culty, owing to the fact that the use of 
only one club was permitted and compet- 
itors were asked to assign their own 
handicaps so as to bring their cards as 
near the score made liy Mrs. Robb as 
possible ; the known fact that she was 
yet to play making the basis upon which 
calculations were to be figured, some- 
what uncertain.

Her score, however, proved to be 
eiglity-foiir and Mr. King, who selected 
forty-one as his handicap, won with a 
net card of eighty-five. Mrs. II. R, 
Simonds (36), and Miss Sheridan of 
Brooklyn (30), tied for the women's 
trophy, at ninety-one each. Miss Sheri- 
dan winning on the draw. Mrs. Mahony 
(20), made ninety-three, Miss Conner 
(15), ninety-four. Miss Zuckerman 
(20), ninety-five. Miss Dumphy (30), 
ninetj'-nine. Those disqualified because 
they fell below Mrs. Robb's score 
included Mrs. F. F. Boyd (25), forty- 
seven; Miss Mary G. Davis (0), sev- 
enty-three; Mrs. F. F. Sloan (22), sev- 
enty-six, and Mrs. Henry Zuckerman 
(25), ninety-four. 

MR. duke's trophy 

Interest in the tennis tournament for 
trophies contributed through the gener- 
osity of Mrs. Henry Zuckerman of New 
York, which continued throughout the 
contest, culminated in the final round 
between Leslie Duke of Boston, and 
Miss Bellman of New York, Miss Hell- 
man's handicap of thirty making her a 
worthy foe as the score shows : 5 — 7, 
7— S, 6—3, 6—4. 

In the semi-final Mr. Duke defeated 
A. H. Waterman of Brooklyn, 6 — 2, 
10 — 12. 5 — I, and Miss Hellman beat 
Leon Sherburne of New York. In the 
second round Mr. Duke defeated C. O. 
Ferriday of Wilmington, 7 — 5. 4 — 6, 
6 — 3, and Miss Hellman defeated R. L. 
King of Dayton, 6 — i, 6 — 2. Mr. Sher- 
burne won from H. R. Simonds of Day- 
ton, 6 — 2, o — 6, 6 — 4, and Mr. Water- 
man from Harold F. Hovey of New 
York, 6—3, 5—7, 6—4. 

In the first round Mr. Duke playing 
from scratch, defeated B. L. Beal of 
Boston (15). 7 — 5, 6 — i; Miss Hellman 
(30) defeated Miss Nellie Zuckerman 
of New York 1 30), 6—1, 6—2; Mr. 
Hovey (plus fifteen), defeated Hillary 
Messimer of New York (scratch), 6 — i, 
8 — 6; Mr. Waterman (scratch), beat 
Dean Nelson of New York (15), 7 — 5, 
7 — 5; Mr. Ferriday (scratch), defeated 
Charles G. Duryea of Washington 



(scratch), 7 — 5, 6 — 4; Mr. King 
(scratch) defeated F. H. Harrington of 
Boston (15), 9 — II, 6 — 4. 6 — 4; Mr. 
Sherburne (15), defeated Donald Bur- 
ger of New York (15), 6 — o, 6 — 3, and 
Mr. Simonds (minus fifteen) defeated 
E. T. Lord of Pittsburg (scratch), 
7—5, 6—2. 

The two stars of the tournament were 
Mr. Simonds and Mr. Hovey, but their 
heavy handicaps proved too much for 
them. Mr. Simonds has been runner-up 
in the Ohio tennis championship and Mr. 
Hovey has won numerous trophies, both 
playing beautiful games.

The Game of Human Chrsa 
"Yes, we get a pretty fair idea of 
people tlie minute they step up to the 
desk," remarked the hotel clerk as he 
hitched a leg across the Hat top desk f.f 
the private olVice, "Init just linxc I can't 
really tell you. Sometimes its personal 
,ippearance, but more often some little 
individu.il peculiarity; a subtle sotne- 
Ihing wliich tells the whole story and we 
make few mistakes. 

"Very rarely is there any necessity for 
asking a man if he wants a bath or a sit- 
ting room, first tloor front or top floor 
back, and the fact that we do is largely 
a matter of habit. The price? Oh, 
that's easy. We know what a man is 
willing to pay as soon as we set eyes on 
him. One is offended if we charge him 
too little, the other grieved if we charge 
loo much, .so this takes care of itself 
very largely. 

"It's more or less fascinating, this 
game of human chess," concluded the 
clerk as he rose, "and it's my move now. 
So long !" 



Governor Letcher's Viewpoint 

"There's everything in the force of 
example," remarked the observant guest. 
"Take for instance. Governor Letcher 
when he first visited Sulphur Springs, 
Virginia. To make an impression on 
him his physician poured some whisky 
in the water, which immediately turned 
as black as ink. 

" "You see what it does, don't you ?' 
queried the doctor. 'Yes,' responded 
the governor, 'and I promise you I'll 
not touch a drop of that water as long 
as I stav here.'

'inpleting the list. 

The crack home hall te.ini evened up 
things for the recent defeat by the 
Taconncts laying it over the fast Mast- 
ems of Hangor to the tune of eleven to 
nothing. The locals opened strong, land- 
ing for six hits with a total of sixteen in 
the first two iiniings. a home run, two 
three-baggers and three two-baggers he- 
re the visitors realized that their 
l>itcher needed a rest, .\dams who occu- 
pied the box for Kineo was in perfect 
form and his support was faultless. 
Hali<lay. the visiting shortstop, was about 
the fastest thing that has been seen here 
this summer and if he reached a ball it 
meant that he had it. The fielding on 
both sides was spectacular in its cliarac- 
ter, Spillane of the Kineo's pulling a lly 
out of the clouds and King of the East- 
erns picking up one which was so fast 
that two somersaults were necessary be- 
fore he could stop. Considerable inter- 
est centered in the second game which a 
ilmnder storm broke up at tlie end of the 
lirst half of the third inning. The home 
ii-am had three runs to its credit, the vis- 
■rs failing to score; Ekstrotn the local 
liitcher. striking out five of the six men 
who faced him. 

.\n aggregation of ball players from 
1 .imp Wildwood trimmed a similar team 
Diadc up of hotel guests in a red hot ball 
:;;ime Monday afternoon to the tunc of 
nine to eight, the outcome uncertain until 
the last man had been retired. The 
feature of the game was the heavy hit- 
ting of .\sano of the locals.

THE GOLFER AND THE FROG 

As Told in the Moonlitrht 



a 



T^ACT is I've kept it 
J- quiet because it was a 



^H^ u >od thing; but, really. I feel 
^' ;:i,it I ought to let you fel- 
l'>\vs in." It was a western 
golfer who spoke and the 
piazza crowd enjoying the moonlight, 
lapsed into silence indicative of noth- 
ing more than indifferent attention. 
Some of us, to be sure, had been in on 
the ground floor on subsequent occa- 
sions, but what of that? It was surely 
worth while to hear what he had to say 
oven if he did own a gold mine or two, 
not to mention a yacht, automobile and 
flying machine ! 

"Knowing just how you fellows will 
take this, however, I hestitate some- 
what, but you can draw your own con- 
>lusions — come in or stay out — so here 
- les. My connection with the aflrair 
A as. naturally, a matter of fortunate 
accident; that's why I don't want to be 
selfish. Having lost a much prized golf 
ball in the lake I wandered over to the 
-icond tee in the hope of finding it. 
The search was useless and I sank 
down on the bank, conscious only for a 
time, of the glory of the moonlight. 



"Presently I noticed a ripple, not far 
away. an<l fixing my eyes upon it, saw 
that it was drawing rapidly nearer. .\ 
few minutes later a monster bull frog 
clambered out on the shore a few feet 
away, cleared his ej'es of water with a 
lazy blink, and fixed them curiously 
upon me, simultaneously querying: 
'Jug-o-rumm-m ? Jug-o-rumm-m ?' 



"Entering into the spirit of the occa- 
sion, I replied facetiously that it was 
not a jug-of-rum that I wanted, but a 
lost golf ball, and quick the response 
came: 'I-get-um!' 

" 'That's all very well,' I continued in 
gay humor, -but, candidly, I believe 
you are more or less of a joker,' and 
picking up a small chip, I shied it slyly 
at my visitor. 

" 'I-show-um !' he ejaculated delight- 
edly and jumping quickly to one side, 
picked up the chip, leaped forward and 
dropped it at my feet. 

" "By Jove, old fellow,' I commented, 
'you stand fair to be useful, but it's not 
jugs-o-rum or pine chips that I want, 
but a lost golf ball — golf ball; do you 
understand ?' 

"Mr. Bull Frog tilted his head and 
squinted his eyes quizzically, so to 
clinch the argument. I pulled a ball 
from my pocket and rolled it towards 
him. "Golf balls — aolf balls.' I repeated, 
"is what I want.' In an instant the big 
head was back in place and the round 
eyes bright. 

" "I know-um !' was the joyous re- 
sponse and making a flying leap into the 
pond, the frog began circling as a bird 
dog does when on quail. .V few min- 
utes later he was speeding back with a 
ball in his mouth, and. will you believe 
it. it was my beloved Crachcr-Jack! 

" 'Want-morc-um?' queried my new- 
found friend and anticipating my reply, 
he was back in the lake again. Every 
yard near the shore he worked, and 
each held its reward. Gleaming white 
the pile of balls at my feet grew as the

moon sank toward the dark line of 
trees on the opposite shore. 

"Presently the frog rose before me, 
bowed and gurgled : 'Must-go-hum^ 
and a sense of sorrow crept over me. 

" 'Sorry, old chap,' I replied, 'but you 
must let me do something for you in 
return for your kindness.' The big 
eyes lighted with pleasure. 

" 'Ji:g-o-rum?' was the response, and 
strange as it may seem, its meaning 
suddenly dawned upon me. Mr. Bull 
Frog wanted something besides water 
to drink; a very natural desire in pro- 
hibition Maine. 

" 'You shall have it to-morrow night,' 
I replied lighting a cigarette, 'till then, 
good night,' and I bowed gravely. 

"Smoke-um-sum !' was the reply as 
mv salutation was returned, and the 



all run together, becoming one monster 
ball which began rolling towards the 
lake and which I grasped desperately 
and tried to hold, but which kept drag- 
ging me on — on ; closer to the rip- 
pling water which had suddenly become 
a yawning, depthless chasm. 

"Then I awoke, finding myself half 
out of bed, head downward, with my 
arms tightly clasped around a pillow. 
.\ loud knock on the door greeted me. 

" 'It's eight o'clock, sir,' said a voice, 
'and Mr. Smith says to tell you to meet 
him at the first tee at nine.' " 



The Musical Liar 
We don't go in much for editorials, 
but we do wish to state that the person 
who plays a cornet at six every morn- 




extended hand left no room for doubt 
as to its meaning. 

"Bending forward I passed over the 
smoking roll and placing it between his 
lips, the frog jumped into the lake and 
swam swiftly off, his head held high 
above the water and the blue smoke 
curling away behind him. 

"Kneeling, I spread the balls out in 
piles of a dozen each ; fourteen in all 
and three over — nearly all of them in 
perfect condition. Something like sev- 
enty-five dollars I estimated, in return 
for one cigarette and a promised jug of 
rum. Gee ! But the problem was to 
get them to the hotel. My pockets 
would surely hold a fair share. I fig- 
ured ; the rest I could hide in the bushes 
on the shore. 

"I reached forward for the first 
handful. Suddenly the piles seemed to 



ing in the neighborhood of our home, is 
a Lar! 

"I-can't-get-'em-up ! I-can't-get-em- 
up-this-tnorning. I-can't-get-em-up ! I- 
can't-get-em-up-I-say-ay !" he toots, 
over and over again, long after every- 
body is up, passed through the fighting 
stage and plunged into the slough of 
despond. 

We believe that truth is might, but in 
this case, it does seem that "lie crushed 
to earth will rise again," for there he 
goes now : 

"I-can't-get-em-up ! I can't-get-em- 
up ! " 

Oh, for a range finder and a Krupp ! 



Artie — "Why is the hen immortal?" 

Jennie — "I dunno, why?" 

Artie — "Because her son never sets!"

THE SPIDER-HUNTING WASP 

Keen Observer Believes He has Dis- 
covered Something New 

Tm not a very careful observer of 
insect life, hut 1 coulilu't help noticing 
e little black wasp which whisked 
urvously about my feet as I sat sun- 
ning beside my cabin. From time to 
'ime he would stop to dig in a tiny cav- 
il, close by, disappearing off and on. 
Illy to return and resume the work 
w^th new vigor. Xalurally my curios- 
ii> was aroused. What did it all mean? 
Presently the problem was solved for 
;he wasp approached dragging a large 
black spider. This he pulled into the 
liole, backing out presently and filling 
• in carefully, the finishing touch being 
ic placing of little bits of bark and 
icks over the top so that it was ini- 
i>sil)le to distinguish the point from 
K- surrounding ground. With my eyes 
\ed upon the spot. I pnslicd down a 
match, to mark the loc.uion. wiiliout 
really knowing why. 

That noon I remarked abmit the in- 
cident to my friend, tlic <loclor. at the 
■linner table and he promptly told me 
that if I would take the trouble to dig 
the spider up I would find an egg fast- 
iied to the under and soft side of the 
■dy. 

"Further." he continued, "you will 
iind that the spider is not dead, but 
paralyzed and will live indefinitely in 
that condition. In due time the egg 
will hatch into a grub which will feed 
upon the spider and finally, grow 
into a wasp. What you saw was the 
-pider-huuting wasp and you were fort- 
unate indeed in doing so as they are 
very rare." 

Just to satisfy myself that the doctor 

was right I dug up the spider and sure 

i-nough. there was the egg fastened on 

he under and soft side of the body. I 

;il>lied a trifle of heat to the spider and 

■mill that it was helpless, except for a 

iijlht movement of the legs. The doc- 

; .r stated very emphatically that the 

-pider was paralyzed and that it would 



never recover and my sympathies being 
with the wasp, I returned the victim to 
its tomb. 

Being of doubtful disposition, how- 
ever, I made up my mind that 1 would 
watch the spider for, somehow, I could 
not get over the impression thai he 
would get over the sling of the wasp if 
given an opportunity. The next day 1 
dug him up and tried to resuscitate him 
without result, returning him to the 
ground again. The third day I re- 
peated the same operatiim ami with 
some surprise, but nevertheless to my 
keen satisfaction, I saw the spi<ler right 
himself and scramble off as if none the 
worse for the experience. 

I have looked up books on this sub- 
ject and I find that they bear out the 
doctor's statement that the spider can 
never recover. 1 am confident, how- 
ever, personally, that these spiders 
would recover if given the opportunity. 
.•\s a matter of fact, I am thoroughly 
convinced that they arc only tempora- 
rily disabled and in this condition are 
flraggcd into the holes and fiisU-ncJ 
d.iwn, and my belief in this i.s further 
borne out by the fact that they arc 
.-ilways carefully laid on their backs. 
Briefly, this is to my mind, conclusive 
proof that those who have studied the 
spider-hunting wasp have ceased the 
study from the time the spider disap- 
peared in the hole until the grub 
emerged ! 



■Why He Left His Happy Home

NIP AND TUCK THROUGHOUT 



Third Annual Yacht Club Power Boat Handicap is 
Feature of Busy W^eek at Mt Kineo 



WHITE ARROW II, 
W. H. Dougherty of 



^tf^ Brooklyn, owner, is the name 
^7 which is to be inscribed upon 
the magnificent Walton Fer- 
guson trophy as the result of 
the third annual power boat handicap 
of the Moosehead Lake Yacht Club 
The unrecorded story is the most excit- 
ing contest in the history of racing on 
the big lake, perfect handicapping 
bringing the big field together at the 
finish line with but a few feet separat- 
ing the leaders — the tail ender of the 
twelve boats less than four minutes 
away — and it was nip and tuck during 
the last few miles of the journey, the 
winners zig-zagging back and forth like 
tug of war teams as they speeded down 
the home stretch. Like the grand 
stand at the Bennings race track was 
the big crowd assembled at the Club 
house and on the shore, and in spite of 
the sharp clatter of exhausts, a stillness 
reigned as tense as midnight, enthusi- 
asm which knew no bounds, breaking 
forth when the leaders slowed down 
and circled gracefully towards harbor. 
Fourteen miles was the distance cov- 
ered, twice around a seven-mile trian- 
gle, with the start and finish directly in 
front of the Club house, the only dis- 
appointment of the afternoon being the 
crippling of the scratch boat, the fleet 
Nee-Bana, which had steering gear 
trouble just after crossing the line and 
dropped from the race. The field got 
away at intervals of from eleven sec- 
onds to fifteen minutes apart, making 
a pretty sight as it strung out along 
the course, but at the first turn it 
was apparent that the finish was to 
be a close one for the boats were 
gradually bunching as step by step, the 
speedier craft overhauled the slower. 
When thev turned for the finish it was 



impossible to pick the winner and in 
the last two hundred yards of the race 
the White Arrow fought it out neck 
and neck with the speedy little Runa- 
bout owned by W. L. Sheafer of Potts- 
ville, which crept up inch by inch until 
her nose was almost abreast ; four short 
seconds only intervening between the 
time the two crossed the line. 

Next in order came the Damiante, 
owned by Mrs. M. D. Paterson of New 
York, and after her the Clematis, 
owned by Henry Sheafer of Pottsville ; 
the Wissahickon, owned by Dr. S. Mc- 
Cuen Smith of Philadelphia ; the Gypsy, 
owned by John Reilly, Jr., of Salem; 
the Eleanor, owned by C. A. Judkins of 
Kineo ; the Hunky Dory and Kenny- 
wyd, owned by E. H. Outerbridge of 
New York ; the LTnome, owned by Com- 
modore C. AI. Clark of New York ; the 
Francis and the Errand Boy, owned by 
Walton Ferguson of Stamford.

secured by the Runabout, the gift of 
Mrs. S. McCuen Smith. In addition to

•fore tlie cup can pass into their pos- 
session. 

Details of the afternoon were in the 
hands of a committee of judges includ- 
ing Harlan Page. J. Henry Hentz, Jr., 
and Henry Feuchtwanger ; George E. 
Cooley as clerk, Commodore C. M. 
Clark as starter, and Ernest F. Eidlitz 
and George J. Lovely as timers. Tea 
was served at the Club house following 
the race. 

During the preliminary maneuvers 
and the first lap, attention was occupied 
with a baseball game between teams 
which styled themselves as "Guests" and 
"Regulars," the latter pulling out for a 
win in the last four innings, nine to six, 
with the score tied at the end of the 
liftli and the guests in the lead at the 
end of the sixth.

SOCIAL PLEASURKS MANY 

Enjoye<l by the guests of the hotel 
fully as nuich as by the participants, 
was the annual masquerade ball of the 
employees, an occasion which is looked 
forward to with pleasure by all from 
year to year. .Added interest was given 
by the contribution of a generous fund 
which was awarded by a committee in- 
cluding Mr. and Mrs. II. .\. Colby, .Mrs. 
M. D. Paterson. and Messrs. R. M. 



Van Arsdale and W. L. Sheafer. The 
list of costumes ranged all the way 
from the hnlicrous to the elaborate and 
not the least amusing were the antics of 
the various clowns and caricatures. The 
affair opened with a grand march and 
several dances during which the com- 
pany tried to identify someone they 
knew in the motley throng, many genu- 
ine surprises coming with unmasking. 
The connuittee found the work of se- 
lecting the best costumes so difficult that 
it decided to increase the fund, thus 
making it possible to give three dollars 
to each couple on the tloor, an announce- 
ment which was received with vocifer- 
ous enthusiasm. 

The Yacht Club has been the scene of 
many delightful social affairs, among 
them the largest and most enjoyable 
bridge party of the season given Tues- 
day evening by Mrs. B. Frank Clapp of 
Philadelphia, and Mrs. Henry Lea of 
.\'ew York; play being followed by 
supper served in the grill room at eleven 
o'clock. The guests were Mr. and Mrs. 
W. H. Dougherty, Dr. and Mrs. T. U.

Benefits of Rest and Fresh Air 

The main benefit derived from woods 
life comes from fresh air and rest, and 
there's a lesson to be learned from it 
for those who cannot enjoy the wilder- 
ness. Fresh air and rest! Nothing 
contributes more to physical health. 
Remember it. Spend all the time you 
can in a piazza easy chair or hammock 
these days. Read, dream or sleep — idle 
the hours away— thus storing up strength 
for life's work, for strength is like a 
bank balance— you can't overdraw with- 
out making good !

JOYS OF THE WILDERNESS 



More and More They Are Beini; 
Appreciated by All Classes 

September, October and Xoveniber 
are the great wilderness camping months 
and from now on until late fall, hun- 
dreds of campfircs will sparkle brightly 
in the darkness of the forest nightly all 
through the northern section of the 
state. There was a day, not so long 
ago, when these parties included only 
sportsmen, but this time is long since 
past, and those who now work into the 
woods include all classes, young and 
old, sportsmen and non-sportsmen ; 
men and women ; tourists, pleasure 
seekers, canoeists and nature lovers. 
The impression that woods life is 
"roughing ii" in every sense of tlie 
words, and which had a tremendous 
hold upon many able-bodied men and 
women, is fast disappearing in face of 
facts, as the true pleasures and bene- 
fits of woods life are being more and 
more understood, and the fact that it 
appeals to nine out of ten persons who 
try it, no matter what they thought 
before the trial, is conclusive proof that 
the love of the woods is still a promi- 
nent characteristic of mankind. 

Woods life comes as near the ideal 
existence as it is possible to find it, for 
every comfort and many luxuries, may 
be had at distant points, and it will 
claim increasing numbers as long as the 
forests repel the advance of "civiliza- 
tion." for it is the wilderness which 
charms ; the sense of loneliness and the 
unusual. The air is like good wine, 
pure water is everywhere, and there are 
berries, and fish and game. The tent 
is comfortable, the camp fire a luxury, 
the guide's cooking good, and with 
never a thing to do, one has not a mo- 
ment's time. 

A joy to live it is; to drift with the 
swift current of the river or to shoot 
through roaring rapids, to lie beside a 
shady hank and cast and recast over 
the trout pool, to cleave the mirror- 
like surface of the lake or to creep 



stealthily along the shore in the silent 
canoe, surprising feeding moose or 
deer. There are rainy days to be 
sure, some disagreeable features, per- 
haps ; but only recollections of joy and 
achievement live in the memory for the 
wilderness lover. 



Why Does He Always Deny It? 

"Listen to what this fellow says 
when he comes back," remarked the 
liotcl clerk as a man approached hur- 
riedly. 

"Yes, that must be my change," he 
began, "and surely that's my coat. 
"Did I hand in my room key? Surely. 
Just look in box 230, please. Not there? 
I certainly gave it to the clerk when I 
paid my bill. No? * * * Qh, here 
it is! 

"I can't understand this. Never did 
such a thing before in my life. Guess 
I'd better consult a doctor. Thanks. 
awfully." and away he hurried to take 
the waiting bus. 

"Perhaps you don't realize it. but 
that's a pretty regular thing," concluded 
the clerk ; "leaving behind what they 
ought to take and carrying away some- 
thing they shouldn't. 

"But why everybody insists that they 
never did such a tiling before 1 can't 
understand. Habit, or human nature, 
which?" 



Beaver Colony at Moosehead Lake 

A beaver dam has recently been dis- 
covered on Williams Stream, emptying 
into Moosehead lake. It is V shaped 
and holds the water back for half a mile 
or more. Bank beavers have lived in 
this vicinity for several years past, but 
they have now established a colony and 
are multiplying rapidly.

In odd moments one hears something 
of fishing which will be at its best from 
now on, echoes of the rare sport Sep- 
tember furnishes coming during the 
week by the taking of fifty-seven bass, 
including one weighing four pounds and 
ten, averaging from a pound and a hall 
to two pounds, by Mr. H. M. J. Mc-

SPORTS OF NORTHERN MAINE 



They Are Unique and the Product of 
W^oods Environment 

The athletic sports of Northern 
Maine, in which guides, woodsmen and 
similar characters participate, are de- 
cidedly unique. Naturally, water sports, 
canoeing and the like, are most popu- 
lar, for northern Maine is a network of 
lakes and streams and the canoe is to 
the native what the saddle horse is to 
the westerner. He is associated with it 
from childhood and this training 
handed down from generation to gener- 
ation, makes the Maine woodsman the 
best canoeist in the world, just as 
westerners are the best horsemen. 

Canoeing is, in consequence, an im- 
portant feature of these races and sin- 
gle, double and portage (carrying) 
canoe races are always popular. An- 
other popular sport which always 
arouses keen rivalry, owing to the fact 
that teams participate, is four-oared 
batteau racing. This craft is a racing 
model of the lumberman's batteau, a 
boat which is always in evidence 
wherever river logging crews are found. 



The racer is built somewhat on the plan 
of the working boat, but is, of course, 
much heavier, and there are no movable 
seats, simply straps for the feet. Long, 
flat oars are used on outriggers. There 
is no rudder the coxswain steering 
with a paddle, and at the same time 
working with all his might to do what 
he can to propel the craft, standing. 
Two and a half miles, with turn, is the 
usual distance; the time from twelve to 
fourteen minutes. 

The log poling contest is absolutely 
unique and brings out a superb exhibi- 
tion of the nimbleness and skill of the 
river driver. With no footwear, but 
heavy wool stockings, these muscular, 
agile fellows balance themselves and 
pole logs through the shallow water for 
a distance of one hundred yards in re- 
markably quick time. 

One of the most laughable features 
is the greased pole walking contest. A 
clean shaven spruce log is extended 
horizontally over the water for a dis- 
tance of forty feet and liberally 
smeared with lard. At the end of this 
pole a small flag is sot lightly in a 
socket. Upon this uncertain footing 
the contestants try to walk in their 
stocking feet, remove the flag without 
breaking the slender staff, stand up 
and return if possible. 

In addition to the sports peculiar to 
Northern Maine, fly-casting contests, 
lance canoe contests and rifle shooting 
are indulged in. 



Horned Owl's a Fighter 

Of all the denizens of the forest the 
horned owl is the easiest decoy. Call 
"Who-Who! Who— Who-o-oo-o !" in a 
hollow voice and if there's a bird within 
sound, he'll not only answer quickly, but 
begin moving forward cautiously. 

The guide will tell you that the reason 
for this is that each bird has its own 
range and on which it reigns supreme, 
any intrusion meaning leave or fight, 
and it surely looks that way.

THE TRIGGER-CONTROLLED REPEATER 



I HERE is nothing to take your mind off the game if 

you shoot a Winchester Self-Loading Rifle. The 

recoil does the reloading for you, which places the 

complete control of the gun under the trigger 

finger. You can shoot six shots as fast as you can pull 

the trigger and without taking your eye off the sights. 

As this rifle is made with a detachable magazine, you can 

replace an exhausted one with a loaded one in a jiffy 

and continue shooting. No recoil-operated rifle but the 

Winchester offers this advantage. Other desirable and 

distinctive features of this rifle are — a stationary barrel 

with sights attached, and all moving parts enclosed. 

The .351 Caliber, High-Power Cartridge has great killing 

power, making it heavy enough for the largest game.

A WILDERNESS BUNGALOW 



win Not Have One? 



^^^ * I ' II E possiliility of one 

^IBL«- A (lay owning a lionu' in 
|fl^ ilu' country is tlic day-dream 
Wf of most city men. and to 
hring that possibility witliin 
the reach of people of modest 
means is the cheerful object of 
Oliver Kemp's book on "Wilderness 
Homes." The general reader will lind 
in it food for the imagination, even if 
he intends no more substantial a house 
than may be constructed from the base- 
less fabric of a vision, but the practical 
reader, to whom it is addressed, will 
get from it a large number of valuable 
suggestions gathered in the course of 
actual experience. 

In his "foreword" the author places 
no stint upon his encouragement. "To 
have your home in the woods," he says, 
"only two things are necessary — the 
time and the will." Wherever in the 
woods one may choose to dwell abun- 
dant material for a log cabin may l)e 
found, and "a day's work will bring 
results big with pleasure and healthy 
enjoyment, for even the temporary so- 
journer in the wilderness cannot turn 
to better employment than that which 
will give him a liome of his own handi- 
work." 

This home. Mr. Kemp advises, 
should be a one-story, or at most a one 
and a half story cabin, and in building 
it the material should show frankly for 
what it is, and each part should do its 
work honestly to insure the attract- 
iveness of the result. The living room 
should be as large as possible, if one 
desires an effect of spaciousness and 



comfort. The one difticully. that of 
heating, is not serious, as a moderate 
fireplace will heal a room eighteen by 
twenty feet, with a tweiily-foot peak, 
"except in the bitterest old of north- 
ern winters." 

Next in importance to the living 
room, or possibly ahead of it, comes 
the veranda, and this should above 
everything be generous in width— ten 
feet is none too wide; then upon hot 
days it can be turned into the most at- 
tractive of eating rooms — a fact, by the 
way, that applies equally to the back 
verandas of city houses for those dwell- 
ers in towns who are so unlucky as not 
to be able to seek a wilderness in hot 
weather. 

In considering the wimlows the an 
thor makes the very sensible suggestion 
that they should be set about four feet 
from the floor, to give a sense of secur- 
ity and privacy otherwise lacking. The 
fireplace, the "heart of the home," has 
an entire chapter devoted to it. The 
important — and in this day of rampant 
picturesquencss, the necessary — warning 
is given against making the fireplace 
too deep or the flue too small. .Xflcr a 
careful technical account of the other 
problems to be met. the most difl'icult 
problem of all, the building of the fire, 
is resolutely attacked, and the direc- 
tions are so explicit that we quote thcin 
for those disconsolate ones who have 
no "knack" with an open lire. 

"Between the firedogs a generous 
supply of dry shavings, on lop of them 
a few short, thin pieces of larger wood, 
resting on the liredogs, three slicks of 



North WARii- no! 



Page 8 



wood with a space between each stick. 
Across these three more sticl<s, and 
across these two more. Light tlie 
shavings. When the fire is burning well 
a large greenwood log of maple or 
beech may be put against the back wall 
as a back log. On top of it another 
green stick should be laid and the fire 
drawn out to the front of the fireplace. 
A slight replenishing from time to time 
will keep a fine fire and the back log 
will burn all day. At night the fire may 
be banked by covering the embers with 
ashes. In the morning this covering 
may be raked off, and fresh sticks laid 
directly on the glowing coals will soon 
spring into life again." 

The elementary and particular char- 
acter of the book may be inferred from 
the minute instructions given to people 
who do not know how to use or even 
liow to buy an axe, "the one indispens- 
able tool in the building of a log cab- 
in." The price, the shape, the adapta- 
bility of the handle to long or short 
fingers, the "hanging" of the axe, and 
the method of keeping the edge keen, 
all receive consideration. When the 
felling of the trees is reached the reader 
is wisely cautioned to keep in mind that 
"it takes only twenty minutes to cut 
down a tree, but thirty years' growth 
will scarcely replace it," and therefore 
the lover of the woods will choose his 
trees discreetly and refrain from wan- 
ton destruction. 

In the course of directing the hewing 
of the lumber Mr. Kemp's attention 
lights casually upon the mosquito, 
which frequents the woods at the time 
of year when the house building is 
most likely to be going on, and he 
gives a recipe for a "dope" to be 
smeared on the face and neck of the 
builder when he suffers from the malig- 
nant little pests : "Oil of pennyroyal, 
one ounce; sweet oil, six ounces; am- 
monia, one oxmce." 

The site of the cabin naturally is very 
carefully analysed, and the builder is 
advised to take thought in time that the 
place shall have sunlight for at least 
part of the day; that the cabin be placed 



on an elevation, so as to have good 
drainage ; that the water supply is pure, 
etc. In addition to the description of 
the construction of the house, which is 
perfectly clear, though lavish in detail, 
a number of suggestions are made for 
the beautifying of the environment of 
the cabin with simple means, and in 
discussing the inside of the rooms aes- 
thetic considerations are by no means 
overlooked. 

The discouragement extended to 
cheap lithographs and calendars as 
"adornments" for the fine log walls 
cannot be too strongly indorsed, and 
the recommendation to hang even good 
pictures sparingly is hardly less perti- 
nent. A more elementary but perhaps 
not less needed bit of instruction, is 
given in favor of neatness and cleanli- 
ness. "Some go into the woods with a 
sublime indifference to dirt and litter 
of any kind," the author declares, and 
proceeds vigorously and specifically to 
condemn the methods of the sloven. 

The chapter in which the cost of a 
log cabin is estimated is brief and 
necessarily inadequate, the prices of 
materials and the cost of transportation 
differing according to the region. The 
figures are given, however, for a one- 
story building, comprising a living 
room, 16x20; a bedroom, loxii; a 
kitchen, 9x11, and a reasonably large 
veranda, the total cost amounting to 
$216.25. At the end of the book are a 
number of plans of cabins that have 
been built and proved comfortable and 
convenient. 

The numerous illustrations, made 
from photographs as well as the line 
drawings in the text, add not only to 
the attractiveness of the volume, but to 
its usefulness. In the matter of a 
house, more tlisin in most things, "see- 
ing is believing," and it is extremely 
difficult for the amateur to visualize an 
impression from a written description. 
All through Northward-ho ! terri- 
tory "wilderness homes" are springing 
into being. Some idea of the charm of 
their furnishing may be gained from the 
accompanying illustration.

MASQUERADERS AT POLAND 



Annual Ball of Employees is Occasion of Entertainment 
For the Entire Household 



>u~~ Itr*^"-'^ liuiulred was the 
^IUk*' -T^ house count at Polaml 
^Pl^ Spring Monday evening, a 
^F 7 record by the way, which prob- 
ably has no equal at the pres- 
ent time at any resort in the 
ciunitry, and it is safe to say that four 
hundred people enjoyed the masquerade 
ball of the employees. Long before the 
hour set for the grand march the foyer 
was packed to its extreme capacity 
with many in the hallway, music room 
and surrounding piazzas, and not until a 
late hour did interest in the gay throng 
of dancers wane, for no affair of a sim- 
ilar character has ever been carried out 
more perfectly. No detail was over- 
looked for the event was planned on the 
same lines which all events at Poland 
are planned, the management joining 
hands with the merrymakers in making 
the occasion one of rare enjoyment for 
all interested. 

Seventy-two couples participated in 
the opening march, several joining later 
in the evening, and as a result of careful 
management there were no duplicates 
upon the floor ; the scene a picture of 
interest, variety, beauty and color which 
it would be extremely difficult to equal, 
and impossible to surpass ; many of the 
costumes elaborate conceptions fur- 
nished by a Boston costumer and made 
possible only through the generosity of 
the Rickers. 

Not the least interesting incident in 
connection was the souvenir order of 
dances (printed at the office of the 
Bingville Bugle, "Old Bill," proprietor) 
and the sly pokes at persons which it 
contained. For instance, the "officers" at 
Poland, were summed up as President, 
E. P. Ricker; Secretary to the Presi- 
dent, Prof. W. H. Butler ; Secretary of 
State, B. F. Gushing ; Secretary of the 
Treasury, H. W. Ricker; Secretary of 



War, A. B Ricker ; Attorney General, 
Dave Arnold ; Postmaster General, 
Oscar Thorpe ; Secretary of the Navy, 
"Bob" Owen ; Secretary of the Interior, 
H. W. Dockham ; Secretary of Agricul- 
ture, John Walker ; Secretary of Com- 
merce, "Dan" the Porter. The list of 
"dignitaries in attendance" included : 
Master of Ceremonies, Dennis O'Leary ; 
Master of Weather, "Duke" Jones; 
Master Sleuth, "Golf Ball" Frost: Mas- 
ter Bar Tender. Jack Cogan ; Prima 
Donna, Miss Dwycr, and Flower Boy, 
"Pat" Noland. 

In the order of dances several were 
facetiously referred to : "E. P., H. W. 
and A. B.," as the "Big Three;" Head 
Porter, Dennis O'Leary, as the "Pride 
of the House;" the Symphony Orches- 
tra, as "Our Leedle German Band;" 
the bell boys, as "nothing green but 
their uniforms;" Doorman Jones, as the 
"boss weather prophet ;" the waitresses 
as "they speak for themselves" and "I 
love my job; but, oh, you sidework!" 
.\fter the dance refreshments were 
served in the dining-room — Out of a 
Cart — with music by "Julius" (Poland's 
immaculate head waiter) and "Pop" 
(his genial assistant). 

Among the most elaborate of the cos- 
tumes which elicited general admiration 
was Miss Louise Stansficid in an exquis- 
ite gown, set off by a large picture hat, 
made entirely of Poland water labels ; 
the swing of the skirt, the delicacy of 
the color and the painstaking care of its 
arrangement blending into one perfect 
whole. In striking contrast was her 
partner, Richard White, in a scarlet 
Mephisto or devil costume. Mr. and 
Mrs. Flint Mills were stunning as 
George and Martha Washington and 
Bernice Whittier and Rose McKeenan 
made the cleverest Dutch boy and girl 
imaginable. A striking trio were Grace

.\niong the ludicrous rigs Oscar

close second as a skidoo Cop. Cleve

much backgrounded as Jews of the 
Bowery type. Kate Fickett and Eva 
Cluckey provoked roars of laughter as 
the organ grinder and his wife, and the 
old lady who lived in a shoe, together 
with her children, was most anmsingly 
impersonated by Martha Kavanaugh. 
May Tcrrault was an excellent Old 
Mother Goose, Margaret and Fan- 
nie Callahan were true to life and ex- 
cruciatingly funny as Buster Brown 
and Tigc, and L. W. Wier was very 
chick as a ballet dancer. Nellie Hanni- 
gan and Helen Rye made an excellent 
colored couple, Mary Margery a husky 
barmaid, .\nnie Murphy a laughable 
Topsy, Marion Fish a clever wasp.

the excellenence of Heinz and the fifty- 
seven varieties.

FLY FISHING IS AT ITS BEST 



Trout and Bass Are Rising With Zest at Belgrade Lakes 
And the Anglers are Happy 




p. 



AZZA bridge is back- 
grounded by Irish cro- 
chet at Belgrade, and instead 
of the familiar "I make it dia- 
monds," one hears the unusual 
"Do ynu make a chain of ten 
and turn?" It all began with the 
organization of the "Club" some six 
weeks ago, and promptly at ten o'clock 
nearly every morning since, "meetings" 
have been neld by the women who work 
miracles in lace and embroidery, while 
the "pupils" crowd close up, as care- 
fully counting the stitches as if a 
nation's welfare depended upon their 
observations. Thus time has flown 
day after day and bridge has been for- 
gotten ; bridge the tyrannical which has 
held unquestioned sway season after 
season. While no election has been 
held it is generally understood that tho 
"executive board" includes Mrs. A. 
Cassard, Mrs. R. B. Sherburne and Mrs. 
Frank Dudensing of New York, Mrs. 
E. R. Sheridan of Brooklyn, Mrs. G. H. 
Buzby of Philadelphia, and Mrs. Chas. 
A Hill, without whom no organization 
here would be complete. 

Among the men there is still a vast 
amount of sign talking, the indication 
of various measurements by out- 
stretched hands and while for some 
time past, it has been a question as to 
whether they are saying "The one I 
lost measured two feet if an inch," or 
"I had a putt that long for the hole and 
the match and missed it." the chances 
are, nowadays, that the conversation 
refers to the "big ones." 

Life in the open air is still claiming 
the attention of the younger set; golf, 
tennis, picnic and launch parties round- 
ing out happy days, with evenings of 
merrymaking to complete the program, 
for September is one of the most 
charming months of the year here and 



the number who arc enjoying it is in- 
creasing year after year. 

Prominent among the fishing records 
which are piling up as cool days awaken 
the trout and bass to new activity, are a 
four and a half pound trout taken by 
General F. G. Smith of Washington, a 
three and a quarter pounder by C. L. 
Holden of Bennington, and a two and 
three-quarter pounder by William J. 
Cassard of New York. Bass may now 
be taken with almost any of the many 
effective lures, but with fly fishing at its 
best, and strings averaging in the vicin- 
ity of two score and ten, bait fishing is 
rapidly being forgotten. 

Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Boyd of New 
York, entertained delightfully at dinner, 
Saturday evening, the party including 
Mr. and Mrs. Eagelson Robb, Mr. and 
Mrs. G. H. Buzby, Mr. and Mrs. Henry 
Zuckerman and Mr. St. Vincent Rav- 
enal. 

A merry party of young people are 
back from a jolly camping trip at Ellis 
pond under the chaperonage of Mrs. 
Duke ; the group including the Misses 
Mahony, Miss Zuckerman and Messrs. 
Sherburne, Lovett, Hovey and Buzby. 

Baseball continues popular, the Bel- 
grade juniors evening up things for the 
recent defeat by the Pine Island team 
with a score of 14 to 7 in the weekly 
game ; the work of Dudensing. Carrigan 
and Buzby its features. 

The annual county fair at Waterville, 
has proven a popular attraction, but it 
nuist be admitted, that the "midway," 
pink lemonade, popcorn and peanuts, 
not to mention the crowd itself, were 
really the popular features. 

AMONG TtiE GUESTS 

Prominent among late arrivals are 
General and Mrs. F. G. Smith and Miss 
F. M. Smith of Washington, who come

CLOSING OF THE WENT'WORTH 



Many Guests Linger to Enjoy Crisp Air 
and Bright Sunshine of September 

Glorious September days of crisp air 
and bright sunshine have made the week 
at The Wentworth one of the most de- 
lightful of the summer and the closing of 
the hotel for the season on Monday will 
cause keen regret among the hundred 
guests who are lingering, reluctant to 
depart, until the last moment. Pleas- 
ant memories cluster round the weeks 
which blend into a picture of delight- 
ful recollection, memories which will 
give life new meaning until the congenial 
group gathers again next year. 

Golf and tennis have occupied the at- 
tention of many, riding, driving and 
motoring, are enjoyed by all, for nature 
is in her most entrancing mood as sum- 
mer wanes and autumn decks herself in 
bright colors, apparently unmindful that 
bleak winter stands not far away. 

No season in the history of this fa- 
mous hotel is more significant as to its 
future and thus early plans are being 
made for extensive alterations and im- 
provements which will be outlined in a 
later issue of Noeth\v.\rd-ho ! 

AMONG THE GUESTS 

Prominent among the arrivals of the 
week were ex-Secretary of the Navy 
Paul Morton of New York, and his 
brother, John Morton of Chicago, and 
Theodore P. Schontz of Panama fame 
and now President of the Interborough. 

Miss Hawes of Chicago, lunched Mrs. 
Frank Dudley, the Misses Dudley and 
Mr. F. C. Dudley of New York, infor- 
mally on Friday.

OlTII\V.\RI)-HO! will 



^Kt^ nnhilists (luring the coining 
Jrl v inter, striking evidence of the 
wonderful increase in pop- 
ularity of motor tonring and a 
^ignillcant indication of the permanent 
place it is to occupy. Though hut a 
' \v years since the first cars made their 
ippearance. motoring now claims all 
classes and all sections, its most recent 
and gratifying development being its 
adaptation from the recreation stand- 
point, a phase which opens up limitless 
possibilities and which is playing an im- 
portant part in solving a prohleni which 
lias long faced Americans, many of 
wliom have forgotten God's fresh air 
and sunshine in the quest of the "al- 
mighty dollar."' 

As a natural consequence of the new 
route comes — the desire for winter tour- 
ing, resulting, no douht. very largely 
from its sunnner popularity — and the 
"lijective points are. of course, the tour- 
i'-t resorts (just as they now are dur- 
ing the summer season in Xorth- 
vv\RD-no! territory) which dot the land- 
.ipe from Pinchurst. North Carolina. 
.'• the coast of Florida, embracing the 
range of cities lying between and the 
■ ints above which e.xtend from Raleigh 
I through Richmond. Washington and 
K.iltimore to Xew York. 

In the movement one man stands out 

Mrp and clear as the leader, his fore- 

,ght, energy and generosity largely 

responsible for the enthusiasm which 

has fused the South into a unit whicii 

i- working with a common purpose 



along broad and comprehensive Vmv^. 
This man is Mr. Ix-onard Tufts, owner 
of the village of Pinehursl. and he has 
111 all truth proven himself the "good 
roads wizard" of the South as he was 
aptly termed by the Xm' Vork Herald 
scout car tourists on their recent trip 
over the new route. Though (he work 
has been under way but a few short 
ntoiiihs miracles have been accom- 
plished and the early winter will lind a 
through trunk route in fairly goo<l 
shape open and in such condition that i(s 
perfection can be carried forward rap- 
idly. Back of the undertaking is the 
Capital Highway .Association of which 
Mr. Tufts is president, and working in 
harmony with it through local organiza- 
tions under district heads, is every city 
and hamlet along (he entire line. 

Details concerning the new route arc 
interestingly set forth liy .\Ir. Tufts 
who has personally gone over a greater 
part of the portion which runs through 
the middle south, in an interview by the 
.Vi'ii' York llcroU. special attention lie- 
ing given to pointing out the advantages 
during the winter .season — the tourist 
advant.ige.s — of the Capital over the 
Western route which is more especially 
suited for sunnner travel.

practical is from Washington to Rich-

Hill, Lytlia. Bishopsville. Camilen and 
Columbia. I have been over the sec- 
tion from Raleigh to Camden and so can 
speak from experience of this part. 
The road from Warrenton to Raleigh, 
I am told, is good ; the road from 
Raleigh to the Wake county line near 
Merry Oaks is very good. The road 
from Merry Oaks to Lockville, a 
stretch of about ten miles, is pretty bad, 
but I believe it can be improved by fall ; 
the road from Lockville through Lee 
county, a distance of about eighteen 
miles, is only fair now, but I feel as- 
sured it wlil be perfected by the fall. 
The road through Moore county will be 
perfect by the fall. There is a small 
section between Cameron and Vass 
that has not been completed and an- 
other small section between Pinehurst 
and West End which has not been com- 
pleted ; but they are now at work on 
these two places. 

"The road from Jackson Springs to 
Elba Springs will be built by private 
subscription and work has already 
started on this. The road from there 
through Rockingham to the line between 
North and South Carolina is good now, 
and the Board of Trade of Rockingham 
has taken a tremendous interest in it 
and assures me that it will be made per- 
fect. The road from the South Caro- 
lina line to Cheraw is only fair, but is 
perfectly passable, and will, I think, 
without doubt be improved. The road 
from Cheraw to Society Hill is poor, 
but I understand this is also being im- 
proved very rapidly. The road from So- 
ciety Hill to Camden, with the excep- 
tion of one bad ford between Bishops- 
ville and Camden, is good now, and the 
many automobilists along this line 
assure me that it will be perfected and 
that a bridge over the ford will be built 
before fall. 

"This leaves only two short stretches 
between Camden and Warrenton about 
which there is any doubt, and I feel sure 
that these sections will be made good 
by fall. These roads are used in sum- 
mer and winter for the most part by 
automobilists at Henderson, Raleigh, 



Southern Pines, Pinehurst, Rocking- 
ham, Cheraw, Society Hill, Lydia, Bish- 
opsville and Camden, 

"There are probably between two 
hundred and three hundred machines 
owned by the people along this route, 
and the most of this road is frequently 
travelled by them. The Capital Route 
has one great advantage over those 
west of it, and that is that an automo- 
bile can go over the sandy, natural roads 
of this country in summer or winter, 
while I would defy any machine to go 
over the clay roads of the western 
routes unless they have been macadam- 
ized. It is a fact that it is all two 
horses can do to pull a man and a buggy 
over some of these roads in the winter 
time, when they are at their worst, and 
I will defy any automobilist to go 
through under those conditions, and I 
doubt if one could get mules enough to 
pull his machine out if he once got into 
this mud. 

"A large portion of the Western 
route has been macadamized, and there 
are more miles of thoroughly good 
roads by this route, but the gaps are 
deep red clay. The clay roads are per- 
fectly passable, and, in fact, very good 
in the summertime along the Western 
route and oftentimes even up to Christ- 
mas, but they are not practical at the 
time when northern tourists would 
use them. 

"The Capital Route not only con- 
nects the National Capital with the Cap- 
itals of Virginia, North Carolina and 
South Carolina, but it goes through one 
of the most historically interesting and 
one of the oldest settled sections of the 
South. It also goes through some of 
the finest farming land in the United 
States. Many of the farmers raise a 
thousand bales of cotton a year and own 
their automobiles. They are the pro- 
gressive people of the sections in which 
they live and are looked up to as the 
farmers in New York and New England 
were some hundred or more years ago. 
The old cites of Richmond and Raleigh, 
Camden and Columbia are known to 
the northern people to a greater or less

(.■xtfiii, Imt sucli places as Chcraw, one 
of llif oldest cities of Soutli Carolina, 
has probably never been beard ui by ibc 
travelling public in the Xortb, yet il is 
one of ibc most beautiful cities ot 
towns that it has ever been my [ileasuro 
to visit. 

"Tlie lloiel Jefferson at Riclnuond is 
far famed for its good management and 
at Southern I'incs there are several line 
hotels. .\t Piiiehnrst. the propertv 
whieh 1 own, I have four hotels which 
cannot be surpassed, and it has been 
found the Mecca for outdoor sports 
Jackson Springs and I'.lba Springs an 
interesting older resorts that have been 
patronized by the Soutliern people foi 
.generations. .\t Camden >ou \v:ll lind 
one of the most lieautifid old ciiie-. tli.u 
can be found in the South, with line old 
estates and three modern hotels 
Columbia boasts of one of the best re- 
sort hotels in the South and an interest- 
ing city, besitles the fact that it is tlu 
capital of South Carolina. 



"The great factor in favor of the Cap- 
ital Route, all must realize, is the small 
cost at which it can be perfected. It 
costs oidy $.?oo a mile to l)uild a perfect 
road through tlie sandy country. 
W'hcreas macadam is practically the only 
material that can be used for road 
building along the western routes, and 
this, as everybody knows, will cost at 
least $3,000 a mile. N'aturc has blessed 



North WARi>-iio! 

the sandy section with frequent pockets 
of a mixture of clay ami gravel, anil il i.s 
simply necessary lo haul this onto the 
well-draaied s.uul and roll it in make a 
good roa<l. It costs only about $15 a 
mile a year to keep such a road in re- 
pair. l<"or the saute amount of money 
in the .same length of time, therefore, a 
ten mile road can be built by the Capital 
Route, where only one mile can be luiill 
by tlie western routes. 

".\gain, the grades are very much 
easier along the Capital Route, as where 
the country is not level it is only rolling. 
while along the western r<iutcs you arc 
miming through the foothills of the 
mountains. 

".Ml of the prominent midille South 
resorts lie in llie line of the Capital 
Route and there are many hotels that 
arc accustomed lo catering lo the most 
f.'istidious of .Northern guests, whereas 
along the western route there are no 
resorts and the hotels cater lo com- 
mercial patronage, and. however good 
they may be as commercial hotels, they 
are not places, as a rule, that the tour- 
ist enjoys." 



Unkind to the Piano 

I hinched a musical friend at a res- 
taurant where an automatic electric 
piano is one of the "attractions," ami 
squandered a nickel to give him a treat. 

"Who'd think anybody would be 
mean enough to use a piano that way.' 
was his comment.

VISITORS LINGER AT KINEO 



Pendulum Swings Back and Section Claims its 0\vn Again 
As a Wilderness Resort for Sportsmen 




M 



ANY guests are linger- 



enjoyment of September's rare 
clays, days by the way, which 
are equalled at no other time 
of the year here, but the 
"season" itself is now largely a matter 
of history and the week has witnessed 
the reluctant departure of many who 
have been here since early in July. 
Sports in the open are still much in evi- 
dence, but the pendulum has swung back 
and Kineo once more claims its own 
again as a wilderness resort for those 
who come to enjoy the sport the woods, 
lakes and streams offer. Many are 
working for camping and canoeing trips, 
already one hears much of hunting and 
the anglers are the lions of the hour and 
making the most of splendid fly fishing. 
Among the best of the fishing records 
was a string of eight fine trout taken in 
North Bay by R. M. Van Arsdale of 
New York, the largest in the lot a three 
and three-quarters pounder and the 
average weight a pound and a half. 
Professor H. M. Reynolds of Yale and 
W. R. Philler and Rush Rowland of 
Philadelphia, have also had excellent 
sport. Rarely a morning passes that 
Night Watchman Dennis Tracy does not 
net half a dozen good ones from the 
float directly in front of the hotel, and 
in the quick waters of the Moose river 
near Brassau lake, Frank Payson of 
Portland and Eugene Treadwell of New 
York, are battling with the gamey sal- 
mon which congregate in the eddies at 
this season of the year. 

PARTRIDGE SEASON OPENS 

A number made the most of the open- 
ing of the partridge season on Wednes- 
day, Mrs. E. H. Outerbridge and her 
friend. Miss Roliinson, Mrs. M. D. Pat- 
erson, and Dr. Rowland Cox, aU of New 



York, enjoying the day and with good 
results. Deer are reported abundant 
everywhere and rare sport awaits the 
hunter in the immediate vicinity who 
does not care to work further in.

it has been phenomenal. 

Mr. H. C. Wilcox, Master Stannard 
Wilcox and Richard Denning of New

Try Him With Two Minnow* 
If you find a big trout which scorns 
all lures, artificial and otherwise, try 
him with two minnows, one above the 
other and each honkeil lightly through 
the back. The lower minnow he's seen 
before, but the upper one certainly must 
be unattached! The chances are he'll 
take it at the first opportunity.

RECORD TROUT AT BELGRADE 



September Fishing is Finest in History of These Famous 
Lakes and Many are Enjoying It 



NEVER in Belgrade's his- 
tory has September fur- 



^B|^ nishcd lictter fishing or the 
I pF T weather been more delightful, 
and a big houseful of guests 
are lingering reluctant to leave 
this favored spot. Other sports and in- 
formal social pleasures, though back- 
grounded, are claiming the attention of 
many and the hotel register shows a 
goodly list of arrivals. Each evening 
the best catches of the day are given the 
usual place of honor upon the fern-be- 
decked platter at the hotel desk and all 
are striving to attain the honor of this 
special distinction. Among the largest 
of the trout taken was a five and a half 
pounder secured by John Wendt of New 
York. James H. Singleton of Woon- 
socket, was a close second with a five- 
poimder and John F. Burkle of Boston, 
and William J. Cassard of New York, 
were among the leaders with a four and 
a half and four pounders ; these fish be- 
ing but the largest of many secured. 

Among the exceptional strings was a 
catch of five trout weighing five, four 
and a half, four and a c[uarter, three and 
three-quarters, two pounds and one and 
a half pounds each respectively. An- 
other big string of eight totaled seven- 
teen and a half pounds in weight, and the 
bass have never been rising more freely, 
numerous strings ranging from fifty to 
sixty of good average weight, being 
reported. 

Never are the fascinating mnds of the 
countryside more attractive than at tiiis, 
the early autumn season, and all arc 
yielding to subtle charm of dainty col- 
oring and the crisp air. Many motor- 
ists still continue to find tlicir w.iy to 
this somewhat secluded spot, recent rains 
putting the roads in perfect condition. 

While the golf tournament season is 
over and the interesting tennis contests 



of the summer are now a matter of his- 
tory, many are finding enjoyment in 
these sports and boating parties are gen- 
erally enjoyed with now and then a day's 
picnic outing or corn roast in the way of 
variety. 

The opening of the partridge season 
on Wednesday attracted many to the e.x- 
cellent sport round about and while very 
few enjoy this sport here it, neverthe- 
less, attracts a few who know the cov- 
ers. Woodcock are also found in cer- 
tain sections and ducks frequent not only 
the big lakes, but the smaller ones lying 
round about. 

A jolly hunting party left Tuesday by 
motor for several days' sport at Bing- 
ham, the group including Mr. and Mrs. 
Eagleson Robb, iMr. and Mrs. Henry 
Zuckerman, Mr. and Mrs. William H. 
Duval, and Messrs. Joseph M. Byrne, A. 
C. Postley, C. A. Hill, Frederick Hill and 
Lawrence Hill. 

AMONG THE GUKSTS 

Among the late arrivals are Mr. and 
.Mrs. William H. Duval of Allenhurst, 
who will remain through tlie month. 

Mr. James H. Singleton of Woon- 
socket. Mr. John F. Burkle of Boston, 
and Mr. W. H. Oakes of Boston, arc 
here for September angling. 

The return of Mr. H. Frederick Hill 
of Brooklyn, son of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. 
A. Hill is welcomed by a large circle of 
friends and acquaintances. 

Mr. and Mrs. James E. Carp-ntcr of 
New York, are late arrivals, delighteo 
with their first impressions of Belgrade. 

Mr. H. N. Fairchild of New York, 
who has spent the summer at Pine 
Island Camp joins his mother, Mrs. J. R. 
Fairchild for the rest of the month. 

Mr. A. N. Frazer and Miss Irene Fra- 
zer of New York, return for their usual 
visit, welcomed by many old friends.

How Does He Do It 

"How does he do it?" scores of people 
.isk every day concerning Oscar Thorpe 
who takes hats and "things" at the 
entrance of the hig dining room at 
Poland Spring, takes them always to be 
returned without asking, rarely if ever 
ni.ikiiig a mistake. In view of the fact 
that soiuething like four hun<lred people 
pass him each meal, often some fifty or 
more of them strangers, the trick is even 
more remarkable, but Thorpe says it's 
easy. He watches where people sit. 
makes a mental note of some personal 
peculiarity, article of dress, jewelry, 
lothing. etc., and about everything a 
■nmmer visitor possesses passes through 
Ilis hands in the course of the season, not 
alone hats, but books, veils, purses, 
wraps and endless other things. 

Xot long ago a guest stopped, called 
iMr his hat and was very much annoyed 
when Thorpe insisted that he had left no 
hat with him. The more the visitor 
thought of it the more positive he was 
he had given his hat to Thorpe, but 
Thorpe's mind was a blank on the sub- 



ject so he felt quite sure he had not 
received it. Some live mimiles later the 
man fnuml the h.il in his room, which all 
goes to show just wh.il coneenlration 
can accomplish in .my direction. 



Black Bass Protect Their Younf 

The fact that the black bass protect.'; 
its spawn and young fry. until tltcy are 
old enough to take care of themselves, 
is pretty generally known, but tile gen- 
eral belief is that it is the mother bass 
who acts as sentinel. The fact, how- 
ever, is that it is the proud father who 
does guard duty. 

In some protected stream or nook 
which cannot be approached from the 
rear the nest is made and around the 
outer circle the bass patrol. No habi- 
tant of the deep can approach without 
mortal combat and because wild creat- 
ures rarely seek trouble, the bass seldom 
has to fight. 

Further, it is pretty generally believed 
that the bass is the only fish that does 
not possess cannibalistic tendencies. 
.Several other fish, however, notably the 
pout and catfish, protect both spawn 
and young. 



The Force of Hibit 

If you want to see just what holil 
h.ibit can get on a man, study woods- 
men. Two little things only are neces- 
sary to emhpasize this. Did you ever 
see one who didn't wear winter weight 
wool socks the year round, and did you 
ever see one wearing a straw hat?

MODEL RESORT ADVERTISING 



Boston ©* Maine's Brilliant Campaign Marks an Entirely 
New Departure for Ne\v England 



W^"T~ 1"\T0 history of the summer 
^^Ak<- -^^ tourist season now 
|fl|^ drawing to a close, would be 
^T' complete without reference to 
the advertising campaign con- 
ducted by the Boston & Maine 
railroad in the interests of the White 
^Mountains; without doubt one of the 
most brilliant and efifective in the his- 
tory of resort publicity. And there's a 
lesson in it for all who spend money on 
printers' ink — the fact that these adver- 
tisements have told their story, at- 
tractively, briefly, and convincingly — for 
herein lies the secret of all successful 
publicity. 

Remember it : attractiveness, brevity 
and conviction. Back of this, to be 
sure, lie the ''secrets" of knowing hoiv 
to get the best returns witli the least 
money and a vast amount of other 
knowledge which the expert acquires 
only by experience ; but the real found- 
ation of all advertising restilts rests up- 
on the advertisement itself and in this 
particular the B. & M. advs. are models 
in their class — models for others to 
study, but not, necessarily, copy. Rather 
should they be suggestive of other 
adaptations, and the range is limitless. 

Upon the opposite page are repro- 
duced live of the double-column news- 
paper advs. At one quick glance the 
White Mountains, their scenery and out- 
door recreations, arc conveyed. Here 
you have it: "lie who runs may read." 
Briefly, you can't .t,'r/ /)_v these advs. 
without noticinii tlicni! If interested 
you will also find a brief, convincing 
text, a list of hotels and their capacity, 
train service and where further infor- 
mation can be secured. Note also that 
the advs. tell a "continued story:" 
Riding, golf, mountain climbing, coach- 
ing, tennis? Note always the charm of 
the suggested scenery. Note their sim- 



plicity. No attempt is made to tell the 
whole story in one advertisement. 
Though, apparently, much alike, they are 
radically different: they seem familiar 
yet always iiez^'! Here's where the 
expert knowledge counts — the grey 
matter — the creative element which 
always leads where others follow. 

It takes money and it takes nerve, to 
spend money as the B. & M. has spent 
it ; but the result is that ten dollars 
makes a hundred, while the other fel- 
low "makes two dollars, by saving one." 
But, now. really, is this making money? 
Is "a dollar saved two dollars earned," 
if that same dollar rightly placed, would 
earn ten? Think it over when you 
spend money for advertising and either 
advertise or wait until you can. Get 
away from the "direct returns" idea and 
enthuse a bit over the value of "public- 
ity," for you'll never — note carefully — 
find your advertising dollars coming 
back tag:j,ed! They'll come back lead- 
ing many other dollars, but you'll only 
know it by a subtle second sense whxh 
only the man who has nerve in the way 
of expenditure, possesses. 

You can't "build up" advertising as 
you do a grocery business, little by little, 
dollar by dollar. Nowadays it's a case 
of "plunge" or sit on the rocks, and 
remember, also, that there are rocks in 
the advertising deep I Better sit on 
those on the shore, until you locate a 
few under the surface, but zvhcn you 
do, when you kno'w just what you want 
to do, swing off and never hesitate. 
Lack of confidence is what drowns most 
people, and it's dragged down many an 
advertiser who might otherwise have 
succeeded. 

When your luck's "going," "raise the 
limit," when its "sulking," "watch, wait 
and think !" Life is more or less like 
a poker game — this does not mean that

it is a gamble — and advertising as it is 
"played" to-day is one of the most scien- 
tific of business propositions. There's 
but one right way to play it — no matter 
what the advertising is — and that's on 
the same lines — not the same way — that 
the B. & M. has done it this summer. 
If you are really in the "big game" 
study the advs. and the methods. 

They mark an entirely new departure 
in this sort of publicity in New 
England and those who know any- 
thing about the workings of modern 
publicity will not be surprised at the 
statement that this new and more lib- 
eral advertising policy has certainly 
"made good" in an emphatic manner. 
To a large extent, the officials in charge 
of this important department, believe m 
the much discussed "intensive" adver- 
tising, and they are not scattering their 
ink drops in such a promiscuous way as 
formerly. In otlier words when they 
think that the /'sychological moment has 
arrived to boom mountains, lakes, or 
seashore, they proceed to boom them 
after the same methodical manner in 
which an expert marksman seeks to 
make his shots hit the inner buHseye. 
You can't keep everlastingly telling a 
man or a woman to "take a day off" at 
this, that or the other attractive places 
mentioned, without finally compelling 
him or her to take the advice, any more 
than you can get the average news- 
paper reader to go through life without 
at least experimenting with Pears soap, 
the Gillette_ "safety" or one or more of 
the "57 varieties." 

More people than ever before patron- 
ized the B. & M. "over-the-fourth" 
low rate excursions this year — a direct 
result of its new advertis'ng policy. 
During the last week in July and the 
first week in August, there were a 
thousand guests in tlie two leading 
hotels at Bretton Wnnds. At least a 
part of this record is to be credited to 
B. & M. advertising. Moreover, there 
has never been a season when more 
readable and interesting news matter 
about the mountains and the doings of 
their visitors found its way into the 



newspapers than during the present one. 
If this were looked into closely it might 
be discovered that here again the per- 
nicious (and perfectly legitimate) activ- 
ity of the railroad advcrtismg man has 
been getting in its work. 

In many ways the present season has 
been one of the most brilliant and 
unusual in Mountain history. Visit- 
ors are coming to the Mountains, not 
alone to the hotels. The grand old 
hills are being climbed, sports and 
recreations are claiming many who knew 
not of them, and so it is that in infusing 
new life and interest the B. & M. is ren- 
rendering mankind a distinct service. 
As a race we are procrastinators ; we 
need to be brought in closer contact 
with God's glorious out of doors in the 
NoRTHWARD-HO ! territory inNewHamp- 
shire and Maine. There is room enough 
for all— the White Hills and the Maine 
Wilderness would be over populated if 
tired men and women only realized 
what thev were missing. 



There's Millions in It 

"I've got a scheme" remarked the man 
just back from a woods sporting camp, 
"and that's canning potatoes and put- 
ting them on the Maine market. 

"'Wouldn't sell?' Of course they'd 
sell. The camp man would buy any- 
thing that was canned and throw away 
the real article any day in the week. 
Why, they were using cmned string 
beans and letting fresh ones turn yellow 
in the garden, and as for tomatoes, 
they've got an idea they aren't fit to eat 
unless they're in tins. But the thing 
that pained me most, was canned blue- 
])erry pie when you couldn't walk about 
the yard without stepping on the most 
luscious berries you ever saw. 

"I've got a scheme and that's canning 
potatoes and putting them on the Maine 
market. There's millions in it, no doubt 
al)out it," and he chuckled gleefully.

THE TRIGGER-CONTROLLED REPEATER 



I HERE is nothing to take your mind off the game If 
you shoot a Winchester Self-Loading Rifle. The 
recoil does the reloading for you, which places the 
complete control of the gun under the trigger 
finger. You can shoot six shots as fast as you can pull 
the trigger and without taking your eye off the sights. 
As this rifle is made with a detachable magazine, you can 
replace an exhausted one with a loaded one in a jiffy 
and continue shooting. No recoil-operated rifle but the 
Winchester offers this advantage. Other desirable and 
distinctive features of this rifle are — a stationary barrel 
with sights attached, and all moving parts enclosed. 
The .351 Caliber, High-Power Cartridge has great killing 
power, making it heavy enough for the largest game.

BEN AND I KILL A MOOSE 

Hunting the Forest Monarch 



W ^n"Y^F.AR after year I had 
^IBm- •■■ been coming to the 
^PP^ woods and going liorne witli 
W< ■'" oath upim my lips that on 
my luwl trip it should ho a 
hull inoosc or nutliiii^! 1 
thmight it all over that night as I sat 
before the rustic fireplace in my cahin 
gazing into the glowing embers, and it 
seemed as if everything had conspired 
against me : the weather bad, forest in 
poor condition, or something of the 
son ; but. in truth, I knew in the bot- 
tom of my heart, that I hated to leave 
the comfortable beds and the good table 
of the camp. Then 1 pulled myself 
together, refilled my cold pipe, hurried 
over to the guide's cabin and called out 
Hen, my guide. 

"Ben." I said, "we are going after that 
moose to-morrow. I want things in 
readiness to start at daylight. You 
understand?" "Yessir," he chuckled, 
with an apparent "rvc-heard-that-be- 
forc" air ; but I replied not. I saw he 
hadn't the least idea that we were going, 
yet still I knew everything would be in 
readiness, and I crawled in between the 
blankets and went to sleep with rcsuhc 
on my mind. When Ben called me at 
four o'clock, I responded eagerly and 
five minutes later was standing on the 
cabin porch. 

It was early in Xoveinber and tlie 
season was late. As yet there had been 
no snow and little severe weather ; the 
air chill and crisp. A soft gr.iy haze 
hung in the forest and the morning 
mists were playing fantastically on the 
lake's surface, rosy with the reflection of 



the sun which was ju-t peeping over 
Kagged mountain. The camp was siJcnJ 
and there was no sign of life .save the 
light which shone in the kitchen win- 
dow and the tiny thread of sim.ke curl- 
ing up from the lire over which Hen was 
preparing breakfast. 1 hurried over 
with a keen appetite, for venison steak 
is good and Ben can c<M)k it. Mis cof- 
fee never fails, and— his flapjacks! 
Breakfast over, we shouldered our 
packs and made our way to the canoe- 
landing, just as the sun cast its first 
rays down the lake. Into the canoe we 
tumbled, and a moment later we were 
pushing the light craft through the 
water at ;i rapid rale as we made for the 
trail on the opposite side of the lake. 
1 laughed merrily to think how sur- 
prised the camp wunlil be when 1 
didn't appear at breakf.ist. and a loon, 
swimming two hundred yariK o(T, 
answered mockingly. 

We were bound for a point thirty-six 
miles "in," where a moose was a cer- 
tainty, and we were going to take it 
easy, covering twelve miles the first 
and resting until the following riny be- 
fore linisbing the long jmirney. Twelve 
miles is not unich of a tramp for one 
accnstomed to the woods life, and as 
the trail was good we set forward mer- 
rily, for we were traveling light, my 
only real "lu.xury" a tooth brush and I 
could have dispensed with that if it had 
been heavy! Our necessities included a 
pair of double blankets and a change of 
sr)cks; the real weight coming in the 
pack basket which contained our nnxlest 
larder: flour, potatoes, onions, a bit of

dried fruit, bacon, salt pork and the like, 
with, of course, the indispensable cof- 
fee pot, potato kettle and frying pan, for 
we were planning to live high on fish 
and game during our trip. 

The forest was like an artist's pal- 
ette, air as exhilarating as good wine 
and a heavy rain had, fortunately, dead- 
ened the sound of the leaves so we were 
able to creep forward noiselessly. 
Sometimes we startled a deer or came 
upon a strutting partridge. Here and 
there a stifif climb took our breath, and 
then we found an easy descent to a mur- 
muring stream of cold, pure water, 
where we refreshed ourselves ; and on 
all sides the dense forest stretched 
away, mysterious, unconquerable, save 
where here and there old logging-roads, 
long disused, made great avenues. Noon 
found us beside a little 
stream, toasting bacon 
over the camp fire on 
sharp sticks and sipping 
coffee, with our destina- 
tion. Deer pond, six miles 
away. Two hours later 
we stood upon the shores 
of a wild and beautiful 
lake, majestic in its 
silence. Ben pulled a 
canoe from under a pile 
of boughs where it had been stored for 
the winter, and we were soon at the 
camp on the opposite shore. We 
boughed the beds freshly, supped roy- 
ally and after a comfortable night in 
camp, were off while the day was 
yet young. 

Twenty-four miles lay before us and 
a canoe was to carry lis to our destina- 
tion. At noon we were resting on the 
banks of a river, and an hour later we 
were gliding swiftly down-stream in the 
silent canoe to the point which was to 
be our headquarters, twelve miles 
away. We arrived late in the afternoon, 
and a bright fire was soon crackling 
merrily in front of the lean-to, while the 
sharp crack of Ben's axe, as he 
chopped wood for the night, awoke the 
echoes of the silent forest. Now a 
lean-to is comfortable enough if you 




are accustomed to it. It keeps off wind 
and rain and reflects the heat of the 
fire, making it warm and cozy, but sleep- 
ing on the ground, on a bed of boughs 
in one's clothes, rolled up in a big 
double-blanket, is unusual to the novice. 
And besides, there's the strangeness 
about it which makes the nervous man 
uneasy ; but we had roughed it often 
and soon sank into an easy shnnber. 
Ben was off at dawn after a deer 
which was to give us fresh meat during 
our stay, and I had breakfast waiting 
when he returned, two hours later, with 
a fat spike-horn. The day was spent in 
getting a lay of the land, and though we 
found plenty of "signs," no moose were 
seen. Several days were passed in the 
same manner, and the enjoyment of the 
long tramps and the wild, free life. 
There was excitement 
enough, for now and then 
we started a moose, and 
we were satisfied that 
they were all about us, 
but we only had a sight 
of two good bulls and no 
shot. Then fortune 
favored us, a light snow 
falling during the night. 
Ben was jubilant. I 
hardly believe he slept, 
for each time I awoke I found him sit- 
ting by the fire with his pipe in his 
mouth. At daylight he pulled me out 
for a hasty breakfast and we struck in- 
to the forest with a day's rations and the 
coffee-pot. 

Two miles from camp, on a high 
ridge, we found a trail — two cows and a 
bull. The animals were, apparently, sev- 
eral hours ahead of us and moving, Joe 
thought, but we advanced with great 
caution for fear they might have stopped 
or lain down. On through the forest 
went the great tracks. Here and there 
dainty ra,bbit footprints intermingled or 
a deer's sharp hoofs cut in, while far- 
ther on, the clean, round tracks of a fox 
or the running, uneven trail of a grouse, 
were seen. For two hours we followed 
silently as shadows. Then, suddenly, 
the trail left the forest and ran along 



II Pai.k 



NORTIIWARD-Ho! 



an old tote road. By tliis time it was 
apparent that we were gaining, and 
witli the open road before us, we were 
able to increase our pace almost to a 
run. Fatigue we knew not ; hunger's 
pangs were forgotten. The miles rap- 
idly lengthened behind us, and as each 
was passed the tracks increased in 
freshness. Presently we came to a 
place where the animals had paused to 
feed, and the trail suddenly became 
sharp and clear, lliough there was sonic 
wind and the snow was fine and light. 

"They're not more than twenty min- 
utes ahead of us," murmured Hen, "per- 
haps not that." Then we came to 
where the animals had stopped again, 
and after that we found the footprints 
so fresh that the snow had not yet 
hardened from the warmth of the honf-; ; 
the hits thrmvii up as the 
feet were lifted, still moist. 
We rounded a bend in 
the road and came in 
sight of a small lumber 
clearing. Ben stopped .so 
suddenly that I barely es- 
caped stumbling over 
h i m. H e scanned the 
open space with the eye of 
a lynx, and laid his hand 
on my arm cautiously. 

"Here they are," he whispered 
hoarsely, "over at the right there, in the 
underbrush." My heart thumped like a 
trip-hammer ; so loud I couldn't see ! 
The distance was fully two hundred 
yards, too long for a shot, so we crept 
into the forest and glided along beside 
the road. Presently we came to the 
edge of the clearing, and peering out 
from behind Ben I could see two dark 
forms on the edge of the woods, some 
seventy yards away. I raised my rifle. 

"Xo!" hissed Ben, "the bull's not 
there. Wait a moment, he'll be out 
presently." The great ungainly cows 
moved about clumsily, oblivious to dan- 
ger. Presently they left the sh.idows of 
the forest clearing, and walked into the 
sunlight of the clearing, nibbling at the 
tops of the bare bushes as they went. 
Then one of the cows halted abruptly, 




threw her head into the air, and gave a 
peculiar grunt. I felt Hen start. Willi 
a hoarse bellow and great tearing of 
underbrush a monster moose thundered 
into the open and stood with head 
erect, full broadside toward us "Mon- 
arch of the forest," the moose truly is! 
I had forgotten to shoot until Ben 
nudged me, then I knew the lime had 
come. The long tramps, the hardships 
of the week, tloated before me in a 
(lash. I glanced across the rille sights 
and found them not. A strange fear 
possessed me as I tlionght of the morti- 
lication of defeat. The rille wavereil. 
"Shoot, man: shoot! For God's sake, 
shoot!" gasped Ben. bringing me back 
from past to present. With strange 
confidence I placed (he bright ivory 
hc:\d just back of the bull's shoulder, 
let it sink ileep into the 
notch of the rear sight, 
and pressed the trigger. 
Through the thin veil of 
smoke 1 saw the great 
beast rise, paw the air, 
and make for the cows 
with an awful sound. 
TIkii lie halted, confused, 
and 1 lireil at bis neck. 
Turning the trio van- 
ished in the forest, just 
as I let a third shot go. missing badly. 
A strange, unreasoning fear took pos- 
session of me and I was about to bound 
forward in hot pursuit, when Ben 
restrained me. and we crept across the 
clearing and entered the woods cau- 
tiously. Here and there the white 
snow was llecked with blood; the trail 
wavering and uncertain. Three hun- 
dred yards farther in we came upon the 
dead bull, crouched for an attempt to 
leap a windfall, the exertion of which 
had extinguished the last flicker of 
life's uncertain candle. 

Suddenly the bleak November land- 
scape seetneil to lake on a rosy hue ; glail 
voices rang out on all .•-ides and birds 
sang where birds were not! .And half 
waking from time to time during the 
night, I drifted off again, conscious only 
of the same sweet sounds!

SPORT ROYAL FOR HUNTER 

Make Yourself a Part of the W^ilderness if You Really 
W^ish to Know its Delights 



V tLr 1 A ^ THE gateway to the 
^(Bk«' -^~*- wilderness which is 
Utt^ opened up by the West 
^T Branch of the Penobscot and 
tributary lakes and streams, 
Kineo rises supreme among 
Maine's resorts which now attract 
sportsmen from all sections of the 
world. In reality the grim old moun- 
tain is the center around which the 
whole sporting section of the state radi- 
ates during October and November, and 
in spite of the fact that it is also now 
one of America's best known summer 
resorts, its fame as a rendezvous for 
wilderness lovers is still undimmed. 
Illustrative of its popularity in this par- 
ticular are the facts that some five 
thousand canoes are hauled across the 
Northeast Carry annually and the game 
consignments from this section are fully 
one-half of the entire shipments of the 
state ; the comparative percentage of 
sportsmen who pass through here being 
nearly as large. 

But the marvel of it all is that in spite 
of the fact that deer by the thousands 
and moose by the hundreds are taken 
from the state each year, the supply con- 
tinues abundant, showing little or no 
diminution. To the average mind this 
is incomprehensible simply because the 
wildness and extent of the territory 
represented and its adaptability as a pro- 
ducing section, cannot be grasped by 
those unfamiliar with it. The big game 
supply is maintained very largely be- 
cause it is buck deer and bull moose that 
the sportsman seeks for "trophies." 
Nearly every doe deer that survived last 
season's shooting, has during the sum- 
mer, added two fawns to make good for 
the number killed by hunters last fall. 
Briefly, if there were twenty thousand 
deer remaining in the wilderness at the 
close of the hunting season (a con- 



servative estimate) and half of them 
were does (more than probable) nearly 
twenty thousand fawns have been reared 
during the past summer, ample to meet 
all requirements of visiting sportsmen, 
natives, pot hunters, natural enemies 
and accidental death and to leave a 
goodly supply at the end of the present 
season for the season to come. 

Woodsmen who have observed care- 
fully insist that hunters can never dimin- 
ish their numbers, so rapidly do deer 
multiply under the favorable conditions 
which now exist. Further, they de- 
clare that no law of man can keep them 
plentiful when laws of nature are 
against it, and to establish these claims 
they point to the time, not twenty years 
ago. when deer were scarce in the sec- 
tion now over-run. The real cause for 
extermination, they assert, is scarcity of 
food and exceptionally severe winters. 
In the first case the animals survive by 
moving to points where food is plentiful, 
if they can find them ; in the latter they 
perish like Hindoos during a famine. 

Every twenty or thirty years changes 
have taken place in Maine and else- 
where, causing a scarcity of game, and 
always from natural causes, woodsmen 
say. Food gives out, hard winters fol- 
low one upon another, and the game 
supply runs low. Then a change comes. 
Food increases rapidly, winters are 
mild and the game multiplies. "Never 
can guns clean up Maine's wilderness of 
big game," is the unanimous opinion of 
all who follow the long trail and they 
are in favor of an annual cleaning out 
of surplus stock, mainly because it keeps 
the food supply abundant. 

As for moose, their increase is not as 
rapid as deer, but their difficulty of ac- 
cess and natural wariness, imposing 
hardships upon the hunters as they do, 
combined with laws which protect the 



13 Pace 



NoiTHWA«D-llol

Page 14 



youngsters and cows, have been respon- 
sible for a very marked increase during 
the past few years. The moose, how- 
ever, is a great ranger covering a vast 
amount of territory, moving more or 
less together and at the same time 
largely as individuals, with a common 
purpose. They are also ravenous feed- 
ers and soon exhaust food supply when 
they linger any length of time. Win- 
ter they stand exceedingly well, rarely 
being exterminated from this cause be- 
cause they yard intelligently and are 
able to subsist on the bark and limbs of 
small trees which they ride down ruth- 
lessly. Maine's small game supply con- 
tinues ample mainly because few are 
attracted by it ; it is merely an incident 
in connection with big game hunting. 
Only through the offering of bounties 
have animals of prey been diminished. 
No section in the world offers greater 
opportunities for outdoor life than this 
section of Maine, providing everything 
in the way of accommodations from a 
blanket beneath a spruce tree or bark 
lean-to. to the modern hotel. Combined 
are an ideal climate, and a network of 
water ways which make the wildest por- 
tions comparatively easy of access. 
And it is here that the real charm of 
Maine lies for man is the Child of Na- 
ture and needs only the opportunity to 
return willingly, gladly to the parent ; 
there to remain until Death, the kind 
old nurse, draws the curtain for the 
long sleep. 

Follow your guide to the haunts he 
loves — strike deep into the wilderness, 



where men seldom go — for there is 
inexpressible charm in the wild, free 
life; it is a joy in itself. Fall to sleep 
with the cool night air upon your brow 
and the weird sounds of the forest in 
your ears, wake with the rising sun and 
live until it sinks behind the hills ; make 
yourself a part of the wilderness if you 
really wish to know its delights. Come 
early or come late, as suits you best ; but 
come once and you will come again. 
Life will have new meaning through- 
out the entire year, and 'midst the city's 
noise and dust, ever and anon, you will 
drift back in pleasant reverie to the 
sweet quiet of the woods ! 



The coming week will witness the ar- 
rival of the advance guard of the army 
which annually invades the state and 
from now on until early December, 
these hunters will fire the shots which 
will be heard around the sporting world. 



Cigar Butt Kills Curious Trout 

I flicked a cigar liuU into quick water 
the other day and to my surprise, a 
good sized trout took it almost instantly. 
Shortly after that same trout was float- 
ing down stream, belly up. Guess he 
must have swallowed it.

RAMAGIOUS MOTHER BRUIN 

A Wilderness Camp-fire Story With Variations by Joe 
And Dialect Obligate by Pete 



V^ 1 A LGERXOX had faikd to 
jH^ •^*- pass his college "exams" 
^H^ anil so it happened he was in 
W I the Maine wilderness for the 
summer, restaurating for a 
winter's tutoring. "Money is 
no olijcct, put the boy in good shape," 
wrote the father to his favorite guide, 
and so Algernon "went in" with two 
guides instead of one ; Joe, to look after 
his personal welfare and safety, and 
Pete, a French-Canadian cook, to make 
the meals something which would add 
pounds in weight and be memories, long 
after the trip was over. 

Algernon was a likely lad, well 
built and athletic, and fond of out- 
door life. He could hold his own with 
the sinewy woodsmen on the trail, do his 
share of paddling on lake or river, and 
he loved the wild, free life and its excite- 
ment, but he had his weakness — every 
man has — and that was a fear of hears. 
No sooner had he left civilization than 
he began to look for them and his ideas 
concerning their habits were evidently 
based on grizzly information: always 
listening for their fierce growls as an 
indication that they smelled human 
blood, and ever and anon querying ; 

"Wha-as that? Isn't that a bear's 
growl?" or "Look here, quick, Joe, isn't 
that a bear track?" 

Joe was a man of patience and he 
loved the lad for his father's sake, but 
iie couldn't stand this thing right along. 
He remonstrated gently at first, that 
though bears were fairly plentiful, they 
were rarely seen, having a fear of man 
and fleeing at his approach, if possible, 
but this only made matters worse for it 
lirmly convinced Algernon that he was 
being purposely deceived to allay his 
fears and his nervousness grew apace. 

"Vou weil haff ter show you sport- 
man wan bier, shuah," insisted Pete to 



Joe, "or her heart weil braik,purly qucek. 
I dunno, niebby." M last Joe came to 
the same conclusion. 

Not long after, bear tracks were dis- 
covered in the camp tote road as the 
party was returning one evening and 
Algernon was promptly informed of the 
discovery. The tracks led straight to 
the cabin door, where it was evident that 
bruin had scratched on the sill several 
times. Then the trail swung round to 
the rear of the cabin where the swill box 
had been overturned and its contents 
scattered about. .\t this point Joe dis- 
covered that there were two cubs with 
the bear. 

"I don't like the idea of cubs," he com- 
mented gravely : "Ordinarily a baar's 
harmless enough, but when she's got 
cubs she stops at nothing — not even 
cabins — and now she's found that swill 
box she'll probably show up here every 
night." Pete's "I link so," and the lad's 
shiver, were the onlv answers. 



Darkness settled i|tiickly lli.it night and 
with its coming .Mgernon's fear (li<l not 
decrease, but in spite of it he got sleepy 
early, for he had tramped all day. Pete 
disappeared without warning after the 
supper dishes were done and soon after 
.Mgernoii and Joe crawled in between 
the blankets. Then came a short period 
of oblivion out of which .Mgernon was 
brought with a start by the sounil of a 
low whining growl at the cabin door. 

"VVlia's that?" he gasped. 

Joe was painfully silent for a moment 
and the sound was repeatetl, he miil- 
tered somewhat huskily. "Surc'n fate, 
it's the baar and she's fighlin' mad." 

Then came an '•Ough ! Ough!" a 
muffled snarl or two, followcil by 
more sniffing and impatient scratching, 
several vicious growls and grunts end- 



North WARD-Ho! 



Pace i6 




ing with thumps 
on the door 
which made it 
r a t t 1 e o n the 
hinges. When it 
ceased, Algernon 
was in the center 
of the floor, rifle 
in hand, his face 
set, but Joe was 
upon him in an 
instant, his eyes 
dilated with real 



alarm. "No, 



no 



Don't ' shoot," he 
almost screamed. 

"You might 

wound the beast and there'd be no hope 
fur us," he continued with more com- 
posure. 

"Sure enough," moaned Algernon, but 
the bear had for some reason, ceased 
operations on the door. 

"Lucky she didn't hear us talking," 
whispered Algernon. 

"Perhaps she did," responded Joe, 
somewhat dryly. 

But presently they heard her again, 
this time at the swill box, tumbling it 
about, grunting as she did so. Then low 
growls and plaintive whinings conveyed 
the information that the cubs were also 
tliere. Then all was quiet for a few long 
moments, the tickety-tick, clackety-clack 
of a dollar watch sounding louder than 
a threshing machine. Suddenly and 
without warning, there came a tremen- 
dous thump on the cabin roof, followed 
by an uncertain scrambling. 

"By thunder she's climbed a tree and 
dropped on the roof," exclaimed Joe, 
"and she'll be through the skvlight unless 



we do something," he concluded 
excitedly. 

"Fire! There's fire!" he added, "the 
only thing a baar's afraid of. Pile the 
bed boughs on the coals in the fireplace 
and the flames will shoot up the chim- 
ney. That will put her back into the 
woods with a fright she will never 
get over." 

Joe and Algernon sprang for the bunks 
together, and how those boughs did go 
into the rough fireplace ! It seemed 
that they never would catch, but after 
what seemed hours a tiny tongue started 
at the bottom and crept slowly up, jump- 
ing from spill to spill, suddenly leaping 
into flame with a roaring, crackling- 
explosion, sending a sheet of fire and 
shower of sparks up through the chim- 
ney and far into the niglit. 

A few moments of anxious suspense 
and then came another thump, a scram- 
ble, a thud upon the ground and a crash- 
ing in the forest, which grew fainter and 
fainter until it ceased. 

Joe laughed long and luud. "I'll bet 
she's running yet," he cried gleefully, 
"and what's more you couldn't get her 
within a mile of this place again unless 
you brought her back dead." 

Then Joe crawled into his bunk and 
drew the blankets about him, muttering 
softly to himself as he struck his hip 
bone on a protruding knot, and a few 
moments later Algernon followed, sigh- 
ing heavil}'. 

Joe was snoring and Algernon was 
getting very sleepy when Pete entered. 
Joe turned in his bunk without com- 
ment and Algernon was too near asleep 
to speak, not even when Pete wanted 
to know, somewhat testily, what 




1 7 Page 

Iluy luul been doing to the bunks. 
"It's your rbcumatisni," chuckled Joo. 
"P'raps it CCS. l)ul, jc-liokcy, I doaiit 
tink so," gabl)Icd Pete. 

As Pete built the lire in tlic morning, 
the thrilling experiences of the night 
Iiefore were gone over in detail, the 
Canadian manifesting keen interest. 
Then they went outside and examined 
the door where the marks of the claws 
of the angry monster were plainly 
visible. 

"Why you no shute troo door, .\lgy?" 
queried Pete, " 'cause cef you had I tink 
you would haflf got hcem. Je-hokey, I 
do." and he sliivered as if a chill wind 
had struck him. 

Then they stepped around and looked 
at the overturned swill box, Joe and 
Pete glancing sideways at the cabin roof 
where "bruin" had made her last stand. 
.\ strange sight met their eyes. The 
-plits were nearly covered with boughs 
upon which the fresh marks of the axe 
were visible, and there were others on 
the ground close by. 

"Baar must have broke those off from 
that tree, Pete," suggested Joe with a 
sly wink and a jerk of his thumb tow- 
ards a tall spruce, from which the limbs 
had been literally pruned. 

"Je-hokey, but she must have been 
wan beeg wan." was Pete's comment as 
he hurried into the cabin, grinning slyly. 



.And .Mgernon who was on his knees 
examining the "tracks," kept his eyes 
riveted there until Joe turned towards 
the wood pile, and when the full moon 
rose that night, alone on the lake shore, 
he was still thinking it over!

THAT MONSTER GREY MOOSE 



True Story of the Origin of One of Northern Maine's 
Best Known W^ilderness Feature Yarns 



V^T~n**'pvON'T you think we'd 

^IS^ 1~^ better tell the true 

|H|^ story about that monster grey 

^rj moose which has ranged in 

newspapers from Lobster to 

Katahdin for several years 

past, long"s we're responsible for him." 

remarked John, my guide, when I saw 

him last and after thinking it over, I'm 

convinced that John is right ; so 

here it is. 

John's really responsible for the whole 
trouble, however, for he kept me in 
ignorance of the facts to start with and 
the monster grey moose once ranging, 
proved "copy" the newspapers seemed to 
like ; liked so much that they wrote 
other stories and moved that poor old 
beast around at will. Then hunters 
really began to see him — they'd heard so 
much about him that they couldn't help 
it — and the affair was out of my hands. 
As a matter of fact, however, the 
"monster grey moose" at its inception, 
was nothing more than a discarded tote 
team horse ! Going lame, hopelessly 
lame, it was thougiht, a lumber crew 
turned him loose one fall near Lobster 
lake, but "roughing it" agreed with the 
old chap, he picked up rapidly and was 
soon all right, enjoying to the utmost 
the wild free life of his pre-historic an- 
cestors. 

Then John met him on an old tote 
road, just at dusk, and "Nero" snorted, 
kicked up his heels and galloped into the 
brush. All John got was a glimpse of a 
hulk of grey vanishing in the shadows 
— a monster hulk of grey, which snorted 
as it went — and John supposed he'd seen 
a monster grey moose. What else could 
it be? So John told me and I wrote 
the story, going somewhat more into 
detail than was necessary. The next 
time I saw John, he'd investigated and 
his face was wreathed in smiles. 



"Good one on you," he commented 
gleefully. "Now correct it." "On me," 
T retorted, "I should tthink it was on 
you! Bear in mind, one thing, however, 
we never correct." 

So the monster grey moose lived on 
and such keen interest was manifested 
in him that we made the most of the de- 
tails of his eventful career. Every fall, 
of course, 'he was a head-liner for the 
sportsmen and in the summer, we 
featured him for amateur photograph- 
ers. "What a magnificent trophy for 
the den, what a picture for the camera 
was the basis of it all ; what a crafty old 
fellow to elude everybody?" 

And what did it matter if someone 
occasionally did see the old grey horse? 
If Chey really saw him he was just plain 
horse. If they only got a glimpse, he 
was the monster grey moose! Who'd 
ever think of connecting the two? And 
so the moose lived for years and prob- 
ably no wilderness feature yarn has 
ever been given more widespread pub- 
licity. Just to please John, however, I 
am turning out one more "take of copy" 
on the monster grey moose and there is 
sadness in my heart because I realize 
that I'm killing a goose that has laid 
many a golden egg! But on the other 
hand, there isn't the market for golden 
goose eggs that there used to be when 
Northern Maine was more wild and 
wooly than it is to-day. 



Tlie accompanying reproduction we be- 
lieve to be one of the most remarkable 
photographs ever secured ; absolutely 
unique in perfection, composition and 
the fact that both a liull and cow moose 
are shown. 

It was taken at Longley Lake, by Mrs. 
Howard A. Colby of New York, under 
grey skies and with late afternoon light, 
September last.

NORTHVVARD-HO! PaGE 20 

FOR THE SUMMER OF 1910 

Extensive Improvements and Changes Planned by Hotel 
"Went\s^orth and The Belgrade 



ELGRADE'S admirers 



^fl|^ is lacking to make it one of, 
^T if not the most attractive re- 
sort in Maine, but much is 
planned in anticipation of the 
season to come, a particularly happy 
thought being two and a half miles of 
walks cut through the forest on the lake 
shore at the west of the golf links, the 
building of a new garage which will 
accommodate forty machines, further 
perfection and improvement of the golf 
course and important changes in and 
about the hotel itself. 

The new woods path starts just be- 
tween the second hole and the bunker 
on the golf course and leads through 
the cool and fragrant pines to a beautiful 
spring of delicious water. Leaving the 
spring the path curves gracefully 
through the tall gray-green, slim-bod- 
ied beeches, white birch and dark green 
spruce trees to the lake shore ; a beauti- 
ful spot with an entrancing view of 
lake and mountain. Here a roomy, rus- 
tic seat has been built, anticipating the 
desire to linger ; the path continuing 
along the lake shore and if the lake is 
more fascinating at one time and place 
than another, it is here where you catch 
sparkling glimpses through silver birches 
and low-hanging pine bows which form 
a sort of rude screen, until the boat 
landing is reached. 

Next to fishing, the most popular 
sport at Belgrade is golfing and here the 
determination to have things at their 
best is again shown. "I have never 
played on a more interesting nine-hole 
course," was the remark made by Mr. 
Joseph M. Bryne of New York, presi- 
dent of the Deal Golf Club. "The nar- 
row course calls for straight play, and 
bad direction is well penalized. There 
is opportunity for long drives and the 



putting greens are e.xceedingly 'sporty' 
to say nothing of the beautiful situation 
commanding superb views of lake and 
mountains." 

In summing up the pleasures and at- 
tractions of The Belgrade, mention 
must surely be made of the excellent 
music furnished by the orchestra which 
is composed of three young ladies from 
Boston; Misses Anna H. English, direc- 
tor and pianist ; Miss Grace English, 
violinist, and Miss Leslie Reed, 'cellist. 
Miss English is not only a pianist of 
marked ability and power of expres- 
sion, but has a voice of unusual range 
and sweetness. No one who has heard 
her on Sunday evenings will forget its 
flute-like quality and her sympathetic 
interpretation of the best music; always 
graciously obliging when asked for 
"just one more." 



Busy 'Winter at The Wentworth 

Though the season at The Went- 
worth is now a matter of history, the 
winter will be a busy one devoted to 
extensive improvements and changes 
for, under the new management of H. 
W. Priest, this famous hotel has claimed 
its own again as the leading summer 
resort of the northerly shore; has 
entered upon a new epoch of growth 
and prosperity which opens up possibili- 
ties hitherto not even indicated. Special 
attention will be given to making the 
place attractive to lovers of outdoor 
sports and recreations and in line with 
this is the lengthening and perfection of 
the golf course. New putting greens 
have already been made and a number 
of holes will be lengthened with the 
possibility of the acquisition of addi- 
tional land for further extension. The 
livery of driving and saddle horses which 
has proved so popular this summer, will 
be conducted upon even more extensive 



21 Pace 

lines, the tennis courts will be main- 
tained with the same faultless perfec- 
tion as in the past, with the usual atten- 
tion to bathing and boating. 

In the house itself, renovation and re- 
furnishing will be general with the addi- 
tion of a large number of bath suites as 
a special feature. The garage will also 
be equipped to meet the constantly in- 
creasing demands upon it. In this con- 
nection it is interesting to note just how 
important a factor motor touring has

for August numbering six hundred and 
fifteen with an average of five to a car.

taking care and llioiigbt which has been 
apparent in every department anrl the 
general attractiveness of the place which 
lias been added to so much by the work 
of the landscape gardener. 



Rangeley Region Popular 

While the attractions of the Rangeley 
region are radically different from those 
of the northern section of the stale, they 
arc none the less popular among the 
hundreds who flock there every fall, for 
the territory is extensive and ils variety 
and equipment are unsurpassed. From

the Peerless third in fifty-three and the

In reviewing the season no record 
would be complete without reference to

IN THE WHITE MOUNTAINS 



Hotel, Camp and Farm House the Rendezvous of Hunters 
W^hen Summer Tourist Departs 




N 



OT in many years, 



say 



trappers in tlie Wliite Moun- 
tain region, have indications 
pointed to so successful a hunt- 
ing season as this Autumn. 
Eyer since the days when Indians 
roamed the forests between Haverhill 
and the Canadian boundary, the section 
has been the happy hunting ground of 
New Hampshire, particularly in the 
North section of Coos county where the 
foothills are wooded to the summits, 
and the forest primeval follows the 
northern boundary of the state over in- 
to Canada. Deer liave been so tame dur- 
ing the present season that around 
Bretton Woods, Profile, Crawfords, 
Jefferson, the hotel keepers have been 
sore pressed to protect their vegetable 
gardens from their epicurean appetite 
for young peas, lettuce hearts and rad- 
ishes, and in driving over the State 
roads, the Crawford and Profile Notch, 
and, in fact, almost every highway of 
the hills, deer have been seen frequent- 
ly, sometimes singly ; but more often in 
small herds of from three to five or six. 
While deer may be shot near most of the 
mountain resorts, from the Profile 
house, Franconia and Sugar Hill down 
through the Crawford Notch to Inter- 
vale, North Conway and Jackson, it 
is in the North Country fifty miles from 
the Heart of the Hills, that the best 
hunting is found. 

From Colebrook, the nearest railway 
station, it is twenty miles through to 
Errol Dam on Lake Umbagog, the most 
westerly of the Rangeley chain, and 
from here one goes also through into 
Maine to the Magalloway and Parma- 
chenee country where hunting like fish- 
ing, is always good. Camp Millsfield, 
ten miles from the Balsams on the 
shores of Little Millsfield pond, is one 



of tlie finest camps in the moutnains for 
hunters, and Camp Diamond, or Harry 
Houston's at Big Diamond pond, with 
its many attractive rustic cottages or 
camps, also ofifers a delightful retreat 
for the sportsman who follows so 
closely upon the footsteps of the fish- 
erman. 

The Connecticut lakes, first, second 
and third, all have their hunting camps 
in charge of experienced guides, and the 
hunting far up in this wilderness which 
extends over into little Canada to touch 
the Laurentian hills, is a revelation to 
the city dweller. The forest is wild, the 
settlements few, and that one can find 
such solitude within a three hours' ride 
from the railway station at Beccher 
Falls, is incredible. Charlie Pinckney's 
camps in Columbia near Colebrook, are 
of the well known ones near the North 
Country and many hunters cross the 
river at Canaan, Vt., to Averill pond 
and little Leach pond, where deer 
abound. Carl Taylor has a camp be- 
tween Bethlehem and the Franconia 
Notch on the Gale river, which is a 
favorite with hunters and its accessibil- 
ity is not the least of its charms. 

Over in Carter Notch and Pinkham 
Notch imder the shadow of Carter 
range and the Presidential range, hunt- 
ing is exceptionally fine and good sport 
is to be had in Jackson, Intervale or 
North Conway, Bethlehem, the Fran- 
conia country, Jefferson, Carroll, Ran- 
dolph and Bretton Woods, all attract 
hunters and at Dixville Notch there is 
seemingly no lack of game. 

But it is as a resort for bird hunters 
that the section is best known, one of 
very few points where the "feathered 
thunderbolt," the ruffled grouse, may 
now be found in abundance ; a magnifi- 
cent game bird which ranks among the 
best this country offers. Accommoda-

MOTHER LOVE KNOWS NO FI.AR 



fions varied in tlieir character, may be 
secured almost anywhere in the bird 
country — hotel, camp or farm house — 
and what more glorious sport than a day 
alield in Autumn's glorious air and 
superb color, with dog and gun ! Stiff 
work it is to search the hillside covers, 
quick and accurate shooting to bag the 
game ; but this only adds zest to the 
outing, appetite and sleep, for all of 
hunting is not in the killing. 

In the lowlands and on the hillsides 
are woodcock, both native and flight, 
the prettiest shooting the hunter knows 
with a tinge of regret as he realizes how 
fast the "robinbreast" is disappearing. 
And such a delicate morsel when "hung" 
long enough and cooked to a turn ! 
Grey hares abound in the 'swamps, and 
there's a tlirill in store for the hunter 
who stalks the runways, waiting with 
beating heart, as the chase turns his 
way ; searching anxiously the vistas 
through the woods for a glimpse of the 
sly rascal who is only playing with the 
dog. Foxes there are also, which the 
hounds never reach and what hand- 
somer trophy than their mounted skins? 
What music equals the mellow notes of 
the hounds floating down from hill, ring- 
ing up from dale : "Hark : Auch ! Audi ! 
Aou-oo-o I Auch ! auch ! Aou-oo-o !" 
Ducks and geese frequent the forest 
ponds, bruin hides on the mountain 
sides, there is a bob-cat now and then. 
and always the sly grey squirrel in the 
forests of oak and chestnut — wary, keen, 
alert — hard to locate, difficult to kill. 

So it is not strange that hunters flock 
to the White Hills when the summer 



tourist departs, and while they repre- 
sent a class radically different from the 
vast army which Maine attracts, they 
are loyal always because the Moimtains 
offer variety, and are better adapted in 
many cases, to the small sized pocket- 
book ; easy of access, yet apart. There 
is picturesqueness. there is association; 
an atmosphere which charms those who 
love it just as Maine's mysterious for- 
est, gleaming lakes and winding rivers 
holds its admirers captive. 



'Possum ^^ill Never Make a Hit 

"Taft '11 never make ther possum pop- 
ular," says Joe, "kaize its get er tail like 
er rat, an' nobody's no use fer animals 
uv that keeracter. 

"Eef he'd a taken mos' anythin' else, 
it'd made a hit, but never'd equalled 
Teddy's bear, kaize Teddy happened ter

"Just why 'tis I dunno, but mos' folks

"No, Bill "11 never make ther 'possum

Indian Delicacies 

The tail of the beaver and the nose 
of the moose, wrapped in leaves and 
bark and slowly roasted in the coals of 
the camp fire, were considered the great- 
est of all delicacies by the Indians. 
Who knows but somebody will redis- 
cover these dainties !
