J. SOUTH LONDONDERRY, VT, FRIDAY MORNING,
Memorial Day Programme.

The following programme has been
arranged for Memorial Day at So.
Londonderry;
The forenoon will be devoted to the
decoration of soldiers graves in the diff.
ferent cemeteries in town.
At o'clock, p. M, Hooker Post,
Relief Corps and school children will
form at G. A. r. hall and march to
the mound, dedicated to the unknown
dead, near the town hall, where the
usual ritualistic services of the post will
be held, accompanied with singing.
From thence the liue of march will be
to the town hall where an address will
be delivered by the one-armed veteran,
Rev. N. Newton Glazier.
The music of the day will be under
the charge of Prof. j. B. johnson.

The Demorest Medal contest came
off at the town hall Tuesday evening,
as heretofore advertised in these col
umns under the supervision sof Mrs.
E. A. Kenyon Of Townshend. The
entertainment consisted of declama-
tons by those competing for the prize
and singing by quartette, including
the johnson brothers, and bv others
among these the little Misses Olive
Churchill and Lena Landman who
sang very prettily and were heartily
applauded. Nine contestants entered
for the medal which was awarded by
the committee to Johnny Moran.
Honorable mention was made by the
board .of Miss Maryemma Sexton
and Miss Inez Ross, and very prop.
erly too, for their speaking was very
fine indeed and deserved more than a
passing recognition. All the contes-
tants, being young, did very well the
only fault being disposition of the
majority to rattle through their pieces,
catching their breath anywhere they
could. This was avoided by Miss
Sexton, Miss Ross aud the winner
and was wonderful relief to the lis
ieners. On the whole the affair was
a pleasant one and full of interest.
1t was unfortunate that the busy cares
of life kept so many of our citizens
away, for we are sure they would
have enjoyed it very much besides
lending their presence to good
cause.
