The town meeting passed off very
Uuietly, Mr.. Olin Renfrew, republl-
can, and F. w. Abbott, democrat,
were the candidates. The first, bal
lot Renfrew had Al votes and Abbott
40. second ballot Renfrew had A ana
Abbott 80 and Renfrew was elected.
Mr.. Abbott feels, complimented, as
there are two republicans to one DEM
ocrat in town.
Mr.. B. F. Trussell and wife of Or
ford and Mr.. English and wife from
Lisbon stopped at the Wynona House
to dinner Thursday on their way TO
the lake to attend the Grand Army re,
union. Mr.. Trussell said he sawed
the lumber for the first cottage but
had never visited the place. we are
clad that our friend Trussell had some
company to show our summer resort TO-
There was large gathering at the
Glen Falls Thursday of the Orange
county G.. A. r. boys, Sons OF Nete-
rams and members of the Relief Corps.
Among those present we noticed w.
W. GrOut and Horace W. Bailey. A
report of the meeting will be given
next week.
HIP Warren and Lester Blake took
a trip to SherbrOoke Wednesday ana
took in the eastern exhibition and also
made call upon U. 5. Consul Haul
Lang, who has very prominent posi-
ton and is much respected by, our SIS
ter government. To say that the
Canadians more than equal us in agrl
culture would be putting it mild.
There was more good stock on eXhlDl-
ton than at any six fairs in Vermont.
They go with their stock and have 1t
on exhibition five days. The govern
ment donates about $4,000. The match,
ed and single driving horses are
worthy the attention OF anyone. Ii
would pay any Vermont farmer TO
become more familiar with the oil
ferent breeds of horses, cattle, sheep,
poultry and swine. The enter tam,
ments between the races were very
satisfactory and the best of feeling to-
ward the New England people pre-
vailed.

Eight or ten of our Rest-a.while Club
friends came back to the cottage FOL
a weeks stay.
Miss Annie Wilcox of Boston and
Miss Eleanor Elton of Dorchester
Mass, who spent several weeks a
Geo. SIMPSONS and have since beer
making a tour of the White Noun
tains, returned Friday, stopping ovel
until Saturday to bid a final farewell
to Lake MOrey House and take part
ing look at one of the most beautiful
spots on earth. Misses Helen HarVlt
and Grace Peterson also departed Sat
urday for their homes in East Boston
while Miss Reid of South Boston anC
Mrs. Wilson of Everett, Mass, tool
their departure Monday. These were
the last of the seasons boarders a.
Lake MOrey House, all of whom de
parted with regrets that they mus
bring their visits to a close. Although
this is the third season spent at thl
place by some of them they expressed
a desire and intention to return an
other year. Three years ago thl
house had two boardrrs, this year 1
had sixteen regular boarders and sew
eral transient. Thus it goes and thus
the business around the lake will In
crease if satisfaction is given to thosS'
who come, as nearly all have friend

themselves of an opportunity to EMO
