THE ODD FELLOWS CELEBRATE.

The members of Lake Dunmore
Lodge No. IL, |. o. of o. F., with their
families and few invited guests, met at
their hall on Friday evening last to cele-
brate the anniversary of the introduc-
ton of Odd-Fellowship into the United
States. After a social hour they adjourn
ed to the town hall, where the ladies had
prepared a banquet which would do credit
to the best caterer in the State. After
doing ample justice to the good things so
abundantly provided the tables were
raped to order by h. w. Pitts, who
briefly stated the object of the meeting
and also gave statistics showing the won
derfu increase of the order since 1919,
giving as reason for this increase the
fact that Odd Fellowship is founded on
the right nciples-friendshi love and
truth. He read a few humorous rhymes
setting forth the virtues of the officers OF
Lake Dunmore lodge.
Brief remarks were made by Geo. r
Langworthy, II. II. Holden, John Spencer
and others. Then the room was cleared
and they proceeded to trip the light fan
tastic still the wee sma' hours. Al
together it was a perfect success, not soor
to be forgotten Too much praise can
not be given the ladies for their untiring
efforts in getting up such fine repast.

THE SUPERvIsoRsHIP.

Editor Register A public journal
would seem to be the most suitable
agency by which the fitness of candid
ates for positions of public response
bility should be discussed. 10 the num-
Der of candidates now in the field for the
office of school supervisor of this
county, Prof. c. ID. Mead may be
named as one whose general qualifica-
tions for the position merit candid con-
sideration. Teaching as business for
more than twenty-five years has given
him unusual opportunities to know
personally and accurately the needs of
both teachers and pupils. His expert
ence also covers the important item of
classifying and grading Schools work
of the highest educational significance.
At Maquoketa, Ia, as also at Swanton,
this State, where he labored acceptably
for nine years, the schools were remodel
ed and graded under his supervision.
1t is no small credit to any man to man
age the Mi1dlebury Graded school with
increasing popularity and usefulness for
sixteen consecutive years. His services
were secured in the State Normal school
at johnson, where the examining board
pronounced his work of the highest Or
der.
Prof. Mead is still vigorous in body
and in mind and deems his usefulness
as an educator unfinished yet, and when
solicited to run as school supervisor
replied "If deemed the fittest man for
the place, not otherwise"

THE CENTENNIAL OBsERvANCES

Tuesday. the centennial of the inaugu-
ration of Washington, was holiday
here. Most of the stores were closed,
some of them all day and all of them
a part of the day. Flags were raised on
the Sheldon block, on Beckwith & Co.'S
store and elsewhere.
The first public service was held at the
vestry of the Congregational church at Q
o'clock. There was singing, the reading
of scripture by Rev. Mr.. Keith, singing,
prayer by Prof. Seely, addresses by Mr..
Keith, Gov. Knapp, Mr.. Bryant, Rev.
Mr.. Palmer and President Brainerd,
prayer by Prof. Eaton and singing. The
exercises as whole were interesting.
At 10 80 o'clock large audience gath
cred at st. Stephens church. Mt. Calva-
ry commandery of knights Templar at
tended in body and in full uniform un-
der command of Past Commander Thad.
Nj. Chapman, and Russell Post, G. A. r.,
also in uniform, turned out under Post
Commander w. l.. Cady. The service
was the same as that used in st. Paul's S
church, New York, where President Har-
rison attended. Then came an address
by Rev. Mr.. Carpenter, the rector, in
which he set forth in pleasing and forci-
BILE manner the character and achieve
ments of Washington. The singing was
prominent and excellent feature of the
exercises. The church was crowded.

trouble with the mails. Now the proper
officers should see to it that the questions
put to candidates are such as would be
asked by sensible man and not those
which an educated crank might PROFOUND.
Great enterprises are being incorporated
nowadays in State legislatures. Last
fall the Nicaragua Canal company was
given a charter by the Legislature of this
State and now the Persian company gets
a charter in Maine. The purpose of the
last-named organization is to furnish the
shah and his country with railroads,
steamboats, and electric lights, to reform
Persian methods of irrigation and to rev.
Olutionize the currency of the country.
1t is one of the marvels of the present
political era to note with what indiffer-
ence men in high position will append
their signatures to petitions. The method
of securing Endorsements of men who
seek public Office has deprived these pet
itions of nearly all their value. Only a
few days since gentleman was asked of
the standing and ability of an individual
who wanted an office. "Ineyer heard of
him. was the prompt reply. "Oh, yes
you have,' was the retort, 81 saw
your name on his petition" Why men
who know what difficulties beset those
who have appointments to make should
give their approval to candidates of whom
they know nothing is ineXpicable- Bos-

THE CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION AT New
YORK.

The Washington inaugural centennial
celebration opened in New York Monday
with most unique "carnivaf' of ships
and naval review President Harrison
and his party, who had come on from
Washington during Sunday night. were
conveyed to the foot of Wall street, after
the manner of his great predecessor,
amid the booming of cannon, shrieking
of whistles, abundant display of decora-
tions, and accompanied by all manner of
Water craft. The party from there passed
amid throngs of people to the Lawyers
club in the Equitable. where they break
tasted, and an informal reception fol-
lowed. These over the Presidential par
ty divided, each member spending the
time as he chose until evening, when the
centennial ball took place at the Metro
politan opera house. This was crowded
with brilliant company.
Tuesday. the second day of the brilliant
affair, was passed with devotional and
| literary exercises and splendid parade
of troops and militiamen. The Grand
Army turned out II 900 strong and there
were over 900 men in line altogether.
The weather was all that could be de-
sired, the crowds were good natured, and
the imposing displays proceeded with lit
tie delay, and without marring acci-
dent. President Harrison attended a SER
vice at st. Paul's chapel in the morning
and listened to an address by Bishop Pot
ter. The party then went to the treasury
building, where Chauncey NJ. Depew
made the formal Grafton of the occasion
and Whittier's poem was read. The Pres
ident spoke briefly then. Meantime the
monster parade was forming, and the
party reviewed 10000 men in line from
the Madison square platform. The ban.
quet at the Metropolitan opera house
closed the exercises with addresses rep.
resenting the great educational, political
and literary interests of our country
Among the speakers at the banquet were
Gov. Hill of New York, ex-President
Cleveland, Chief Justice Fuller of the
United States supreme court, ex-Pres
dent HAYES, Senator Evarts, Gen. 81 -,

THE SuPERvISORSHIP.

The members of the county school
board chosen in the several towns at the
March meetings will meet in Middlebury
on Tuesday next to elect a supervisor of
schools for the county. Too much en-
phasis cannot be put upon the necessity
of a wise choice. The man who success
fully accomplishes the task imposed upon
him by the law must possess brains, tact
and energy; and the candidate having
these qualifications in the most marked
gard to his place of residence, to his f.
nancial needs or to any other outside con-
sideration whatsoever. If the right man is
fixed upon, the new school law will, we
believe, be found good law; but if an
unfit man is made supervisor, the law is
bound to fail in essential particulars, and
the last state of education in the county
will be worse than the first.
Another very strong reason why no
mistake should be made is the fact that
the county supervisor here, as in other
counties of the State, will have to rely
on himself almost entirely. The State
superintendent who should direct their
efforts, is incapable of that, as all who
have seen and heard him are perfectly
find out for themselves what needs doing
and must contrive, each for himself,
methods of doing it.

A WORD ON POKER.

Unless current reports and beliefs are
wofully wide of the truth, the game of
poker is played in this community to an
extent which cannot but be prejudicial to
the best interests not only of individuals
but of the general public. The officers
of the law have made praiseworthy at
tempt to break up one of the resorts of
those who indulge in it, and it is to be
hoped that they will continue the crusade
till an end is put to the business. For it
is business with some of those who en-
gage in it. Every community of any
size contains more or less well-fed and
well-dressed loafers, without visible
means of support, who get their living
out of venturesome persons whom they
can persuade to play with them. 1t is
this class who find profit in the game and
keep it going, and the more victims they
can find the greater, of course, their gains.
These leaders in the game have nothing
to lose in character or reputation, be-
cause they cannot lose what they haven't
got but the men who Join with them are
bound to suffer in pocket and in the pub.
lie estimation. They play behind locked
doors, perhaps; but that doesn't prevent
half the town from knowing where they
are, what they are there for and how
much they lose. So the credit of the
players suffers, their business stand
ing is sooh gone and in the enc
they 60 to the dogs. In merely
business sense poker is bad enough
but that is not the worst of it. 1t leads
its victim into associations far from help
full. it takes his time and attention
from his legitimate pursuits and unhin-
ges him generally. Those who have
watched the course of events here for the
past year know that all this, and much
that might be said in addition, is true
The officers ought, then, to break VI
these dens, wherever they exist, anC
punish the keepers of them, in ordel
that those weak enough to be led int
the game may be protected from the re
suits of their folly.
