The village of Bradford expected to be
selected as the site for the state Odd Eel
lows home, but twas passed over by the
committee at the last moment and Lud-
low was selected instead,
The Bradford Opinion, in detailing The
news, thus comments on the narrow
minded policy which, by the way, loses
many good things to many Vermont
towns every year:
We think it will demonstrate clearly to
the unparalleled mind that the sewerage
question was the only drawback, and
had the village meeting June 10Th voted
for a public system OF sewerage we have
no question but what the transfer OF the
Peters property would have been made
and the Vermont Odd Fellows home
would have been built in Bradford.
We do not wish to reflect upon the &C
ton of those who honestly opposed sew
crage, only to say that the loss of this
project for our town is an example OF
what they may expect in the future from
allowinga parsimonious policy OF saving
money in taxes by dcpriving themselves
of actual necessities such as sewerage,
etc, known to be Indispensable i'll all reg
ulated villages having a water system.
We feel that Bradford has met with 4
great loss in not securing this institution.
We had expected it, and should have got
it had we been able at first to have met
the committees requirements !or proper
sewerage facilities.

AS some indication of the extent OF the
green calf skin business carried on in
Hyde Park, the following statement as
to the amount of c. S. Pages hostages
for the months of March, April and May,
may be interesting to some of our read
ers: March, $1s2.sS; April, $273.56;
May, 1915 So; making a total for the
three months of $732, or an average OF
$24+ per month or nearly $40 tor each
working day. There is another fact
which speaks with considerable force of
the growth of Gov. Pages hide bust
ness. In 1880, that he might save
expense of carriage, he decided to change
the location of his hide house, which was
1OSx40 #, two floors. This building then
seemed to be a large one and its extrava-
giant proportions were duly commented
upon by Mr.. Pages friends. His reply
was that he hoped the business might
grow to it," With a single exception,
additions have been made to the plant in
every year from 1880 to 1895, the addi-
lions in 1898 alone being more than three
times as large as the entire new building
erected in 1880. In 1894 tallow rem
dering plant was added and this year

The services at Christ Church last Sun
day were of more than ordinary interest.
The Bishop of the Diocese, the Right Rev.
Dr.. Hall, visited the parish for the pur-
pose of administering the Apostolic Rite
OF Confirmation, and installing the new
rector, the Rev. A. Vincent Binnington in
his Cure In the morning the Bishop de
livcrcd a very practical sermon on For
giveness, the ethical portion being par
ticularly fine and appropriate. At the
celebration Of the Holy Communion
which followed the Bishop was the cele-
brant and the Rector assisted.
In the afternoon the Bishop publicly
catechsed the children Of the Sunday
School, and showed the wonderful adj
vantage Of the catcchism of the Prayer
Book over the leahet system, or The per-
sonal idiosyncrasies of the teacher. The
greatest attention was paid to his
thorough and lucid explanations. At
this service the Sacrament of Holy Bap-
tiSm was administered to the twin chill
dren of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank W. Bigelow.
At Evensong the Church was filed
with a most revcrent congregation. The
first part of the service was taken by the
Rector and after the singing of a hymn
at the close of the third collect, the Con
tirmation service began. The candidates,
eight i'll number, were presented by the
Rev. A. Vincent Burlington, who also
read the lesson appointed by the Church
for this service. After the Laying on of
hands" Newman's magnificent hymn
Praise to the Hottest in the Height"
was sang and the Bishop proceeded with
the sermon. DR.. Hallretains all the impas-
stoned eloquence and fecundity of thought
which enabled him to fill such vast build
ings as St. Pauls and Lincoln Cathedrals
in England, and which made him such a
power for good in Boston and its neigh.
borhood. 1t would be superfluous to at.
tempt an analysis of his marvellous dis
course. Those who were privileged to
hear it will long remember it as a mas
terly combination of devout learning
with fervent yearning for the souls OF
men. The choir deserves the Warmest
praise for their beautiful rendering of the
well chosen music used at these services
We shall look forward to another visit
from the Bishop of Vermont with the
keenest pleasure and our readers will, we
are sure, join with us in hoping that he
will not long delay his coming.

The Board of Agriculture has issued a
neat little pamphlet of about a hundred
pages on the Summer Homes and
Farms of Vermont. The attractions of
the state to those who are looking for a
farm on which tn locate, to those who
want a farm to be used for a summer
home, and to the summer tourists, are
clearly and fully set forth. The illustra-

contains an extended list of hotels, sum
mer homes and resorts, withinlormation
as to location, proprietors, prices, accom-
modations, cOnvcyances, etc. One part
of the book which will doubtless receive
attention is the list of farms for sale.
Full descriptions of these farms with dis
tance from railroad station, postoffice
and school, are given. The Board OF
Agriculture has done well in issuing this
little book.
