"The Doctrine of the Eucharist in the
First Three Centuries, in 1925. He be-
came lecturer before the University of
Munich the same year, his subject being
church history. These be finally en-
bodied in his elaborate History of the
Church" published in 1888. He turned
his attention TO politics, and in 1916 rep
resented the University of Munich in
the Bavarian Parliament, and in 1861
was delegate to that at Frankfort,
where he voted for the absolute separa-
ton OF the church and state. In 1861 he
delivered a course of lectures advocating
the abandonment of the temporal pow er
by the Holy See. Later he gained wide
notice and influence hy his persistent
opposition to the DEGREES of the Vatican
Council, and especially to thai one which
declares the Pope to be infsllible when
addressing the church ex.calhedra on
questions of faith and morals. His con-
duct was approved by the BavarIan gov
eminent, though he was formerly ex
communicated in 1871 by the Archbishop
of Munich. He was made President OF
the Royal Academy of Science OF
Munich in 1878, and also Rector of the
University of Munich He presided
over the "Old Catholic" conference at
Bonn in 1874, and there declared that he
and his colleagues did not consider
themselves bound by the Council Of
Trent. He also introduced declaration
there, which was unanimously adopted,
that the Bucharest celebration in the
church is not continuous repetition or
renewal of the great prOpiliatory sacri-
| flee, He was VOluminOus writer and
the author of many ecclesiastical works.

A Vanished Industry,

Slate pencils have for many years been
an important item to the commerce OF
Vermont, but reduction of duties and
foreign competition have driven the
home product entirely out OF the
markets. About six miles drive north
east from FaIrbaven, along the shores
OF beautiful Bomoseen, brings one 10 the
ruins of the "old pencil mill" in North
Castleton. For years these works gave
employment to many men and women
and were the direct support OF hundreds
of peopl'. The Vermont Slate and Alum
Company controlled the only machines
for the manufacture Of round slate pen.
ellis and by their use had reduced tn.
price of pencils at wholesale TO thirty
cents per hundred and made the Who'll,
world its market. The only con petitOrt
were in Germany, and as the American
product was superior to the imported
the prospects of the concern were indeed
tlatteIing. But times changed. The
company, through bad management and
crooked methods, became bankrupt, and
in 1874 the great mill was destroyed by
fire and the business became a thing OF
the past. In 1879 the Sheldons Of Rut
land eDdeavored TO revive the business
and opened mill in a small builiing
erected for the purpose, but failed 10 d.
a profitable business. German comUe.
tition proved too great, and few houses
and the immense chimney Of the mill
stand, a monument to the only n u try
OF it's kind in the United Safes.

Of Western Vermont As our readers
will recall, last summer when we located

stated that trunk lines of railroad ran
conveniently near all these farms. On
the dairy product" question we restate
point, On the Central Vermont line
refrigerator tram runs 10 Boston week

such trains. This may account for the
higher price paid for dairy products
along the Central Vermont railroad.

if the writer referred to, whose "Notes'

will advance one step further and cal
these farms uncultivated, he will ge
the thing about right. There are herr

owners pasture great herds of cattle anC
flocks of sheep thereon. But the value
of such farms, even, seem to be bette
understood by spectators than by ou
people. Only last week, Walter w
