INTERESTING RELICS

G. s. Whittier has in his possession tro-
phies of the fire department of Montpelier
in the early days of its history. They COM
prise two leathern fire buckets that were
the property of the late Erastus Hubbard,
who was one of the original members of the
company which used these buckets, as was
also George w. Scott.
These buckets belonged to No. 2 company
which was organized soon after Mr.. Scott
located here in 1927. The first company
known as No. l, was organized by Daniel
Baldwin and was the first to introduce a
suction engine into the local fire depart
ment.
The only members of No. 2, or the "Old
Silver Grsys," as they were better known
because OF tho company bring composed of
older men, now living in town so far as is
known are b. +. Fifeld, G. 8. Woolson
JohnVoodry, g. w. Scott and G. B. Dodge.
Mr.. Scott continued in this company for
some thirty years. He says these buckets
were used in connection with an old hand
tub machine. The members would line up
from the tub to water supply and pass the
buckets along to keep the tub supplied with
water. He said the first fire his company
attended was at the Kelton place up Wor-
cester branch road. After time this sort
OF an arrangement was supplanted by sue
tion engine.
Mr.. Voodry in recalling tho company said
he joined it in 1850 when he first came to
Of huffman. He had in his position for
about twenty years fire axe used by this
company He presented this to the Volun-
teers as relic and it is now at their quar-.
ters where the buckets in question will
probably be placed. He said when the
Watertown engines were purchased the
"Old Silver Grays" disbanded. The COM
pany was practically self-supporting, the
members bearing the expense of equiI-
ment and so forth. One Of the buckets is
inscribed in black letters upon red scroll
~. O. South, M. D., No. q" while the
lettering on the second has disappeared
although the scroll work still remains.
They are in good state of preservation,
and, what appears most remarkable con-
sidering the lapse of years since they were
made, the stitching appears az firm as
though just from the makers hands.
When old No. 2 Company disbsnded it
had over $500 in the treasury. This money
was voted to the citizens of Montpelier to
start a public library, was finally devoted
TO the Montpelier Public Library.

DELIGHTFUL RECEPTION

From three to six o'clock ou Saturday
the State Street residence OF Samuel A.
Moss was a scene of unusual brilliancy,
when Mrs. Moss and Mrs. j. @. Adams
gave reception in honor of Mrs. S. b.
Zeigler of West Union, Ia.
The guests were received in the parlors
by Mrs. Moss and Mrs, Adams. Mrs. Kate
ID. Squire and Mrs. Pearl Blodgett grace
fully performed the duties OF ushers. Maui
rice Dewey admitted the guests at the front
door.
Miss Addie e. Cobeigh OF Northfield
was in charge Of the dining room. Mrs #.
j. McCuen and Miss Gertrude Meinecke
poured and Misses Kate Kempton, Helen
Dewey, Clara Adams and Lucy Jacobs
served delicious refreshments. The Mont
pelier orchestra was stationed in the upper
hall and rendered programme OF popular
airs during the hours Of the reception.
The decorations were particularly notice.
able, not alone for their abundance but for
their artistic arrangement. In the front
hall ferns, clematis and golden glory were
deftly combined with striking effect In
the drawing room, reception room and par
lor astors prevailed and the radiators were
almost hidden banks of asparagus. The
dining room was in pink and white, with
sweet peas in these colors in generous pro-
fusion.

The trained monkey which ESCAPED from
the Gentry Brothers show Thursday night
and for the recovery Of which reward Of
$40 was offered, was found on Saturday
The young sons of W. IL. Farrar, on lower
State street, discovered the monk eating ap-
pies beneath q tree. They coaxed the ami
NAL into Thomas Moriaty's barn by means
OF peanuts and then shut him in. AS he
was large chap and manifested desire to
be let alone they did not attempt to secure
him but notified Chief Tuttle, who tele-
phoned to the Gentry Brothers at Buring-
ton. They replied that the monkey cost
them $50 and instruct ed Chief Tuttle to ship
him 10 Burlington O. o. ID. by express
which was done. The boys will receive the
reward.
Another large crowd attended the band
concert given Saturday evening at the Pc
vilion stand. The concert was all that
could be desiT cd in musical way but be-
cause OF the rain it was necessary to cut the
program short. A collection was taken
from the crowd which amounted to S35 25,
This money is to be used in defraying the
extra expense incurred by the band at
muster. What was said of the cornet and
piccolo soloists work al the concert the
week before more than held good at this
one. Another delightful feature was how
ever added at this concert and that was the
tuba solo by Oscar Brandt of Brockton
Mass, who Is a perfect master OF his instru-
ment and received unbounded applause
from those present.

Business Mere Mention

One OF the strongest documents in the
Business College line has come to us from
the Springfield BUSINESS School, long known
as the Childs Business College. This is a
handsome little book of 80 pages, perfect
gem OF the printers art. The printed mat
ter consists of testimonials from all the
prominent business men in the vicinity of
the school as we'll rs many testimonials
from former students. The school, under
the management of Mr.. Griffin, who is one
OF the best-known educators in the country
IS doing some great work. He graduated
more students last June than any previous
year and Of this number all but ten are at
present employed.

Little Switzerland does not keep her ac-
tive army in service during the entire year,
but every citizen must enter the army un-
less physically incapacitated. In addition
to the first line of defence are 14S, 900 men,
called together from time to time for inspec-
ton aud exercise.
Reckoning only the 14S,000 elite in the
Swiss army, Switzerland has AZ soldiers to
every thousand of her population. The
United States has but ,86 OF soldier to ev-
cry thousand OF our population. Switzer-
laud has trained every man in her borders
to bear arms for years. Her sons were the
mercenary soldiers Of Europe through all
the Middle Ages.
There isn't a republic in the world that
has maintained its Independence as long as
Switzerland There isn't freer country in
the world. 1t is free because It's people are
not only ready but trained to fight in their

Gentlemen: My mamma has been great
coffee drinker and has found it very injuri-
GUS. Having used several packages of
your GRAIN.O, the drink that takes the
place of coffee, she finds it much better for
herself and for us children to drink. She
has given up coffee drinking entirely. We
use a package every week. 1 am ten years
old.
Yours respectfully.
FANNIE WILLIAMS.
