Winter began on Saturday in en-
phatic earnest with a few inches of
snow, followed yesterday and this
morning with mercury eight to twenty
degrees below zero.
Arthur D. Wiggin has taken the
school in the Burton Hill Dist. in Iras-
burgh and will board at home. He is
a steady, competent young man and
wo bespeak success for him.
Thanksgiving Day was one of the
pleasantest we remember; until late
in the afternoon the sky was as clear
as bell, land the air just cold enough to
D6 d2ISSdD1S. 4IC was NO4J MI
ct in this vicinity.
The annual meeting of Quimby Post
G.. A. r. will be held at Post hall on

Those boys at the upper end of the
village who have been breaking the
peace, ETC., seem to be getting ready
for a free trip to Vergennes or Rut-
land, under the escort of an officer.
They can get job polishing stone OF
bottoming chairs for the winter if they
wish it.
Those in the Intermediate room who
have had no absent marks are as fol
lows: Grace Elliott, Mabel McFarlane
Maude Rattigan, Lula Robinson, Err
win McFarlane, Ellery Owen, Eddie
Briggs, Roscoe Smith, Erwin Pearson
Fred Pierce, Frank Tower, Lyman
Mason, Ralph Newell, johnnie Brooks
The little McFarlane girl, who haC
the rifle bullet shot into her head weel
before last, is really recovering, con
trary to the expectatiOns:ofe everybody
She sits up some, converses and seem
to be in her right mind. 1t had beef
feared that in the event of her recOv
cry from the wound that her sight
hearing or mind might suffer from
the wound.
The academy and village school
start up for the winter term of clever
weeks next Monday with the sam
teachers, except in the intermediate
room. 1t is hoped there will be a larg
attendance in each room. The effor
being made to give a special course t.
young men in the academy depart
ment ought to increase the numbe
there largely.
For those who wish to keep we
posted in matters of the tariff and bust
ness which pertain most to the hom
markets we think of nothing bette
than the bright, little monthly, HON
Market Bulletin, edited by ALDER
Clarke, for many years an infuentia
editor on Vermont papers. We clu
it with the MONITOR for the low pric
of % cents year.
We hope our arrearage subscriber
Will make an effort to pay up the col
score" this early winter. To such a
try to do this and get on to our ad
vance list, we will make generou
concession in the matter of interes
etc. We want to give you the advan
tage of our low club rates, and tn
pleasure experienced in owning tn
papers you read. See us, or our ager
agent before Jan. Is, 1892.
