The REcoRD says that the child of Mr.. Blake,
saved in the snow-storm in 1921, was girl Our
recollection was that Mr. Blake (junior) himself
told that he was the child but probably he told
as only that it was his mother who lost her life
that occasion. Mr.. Blake was born March II, 1878.

How about Montpelier :-f inisor Journal.
Just like Burlington. Burlington was not cited
as a peculiarly bad case. We think there is not a
single town in the State in which moro money has
not been paid for whiskey than for water in the
last twenty years or will not be spent in the next
twenty The point we made is this $50 900
for water paid by Burlington in twenty years, is
a mll sum compared with what will be spent by
her people in the same years for liquor. The
journal may take the same as a general rule
