Change and Progress.

The past five years have brought many
changes in North Walpole, the suburb
across the river, and most Of these
changes have been in the line of progress.
A few, not to enumerate them all, are
better and cleaner streets, street lights,
concrete sidewalks and a limited sewer
system. ST. Peters church and parish
house have been kept in good repair and
this spring the house has been gone
through by painters and paper hangers
and the grounds greatly improved. The
present school building is being newly
painted, and new building is being
erected which would be a credit to
any town. The schools have been held
up to high standard of excellence. At
recent meeting the village voted to
purchase and maintain a S27, 900 munich
pal water plant, and erect building to
be used for public meetings, a library
and headquarters for fire department.
for volunteer department with facilities
for adequate protection against fire is
sure to come. And this is only part of
the story. The hustling suburb seems
to have the proper public spirit, and the
wisdom of building well will be demon
strated in time, even if it is not appar-
ent now

Letter to E. p. Smith.
BELLOWS FALLS, VT.

Dear Sir:-Lead and oil is no longer the
paint to be prosperous with.
As everybody knows, lead and oil chalks
or powders off in about three years-three
years is its limit.
Painters are putting little zinc in their
lead to make it fought lasts good three
years with little zinc.
Bnt painters don't like the job of mixing
zinc. It's tedious job, and, both being
white, nobody knows when the mixing is
thorough. 1t gets half-miXed; and the
paint goes on, streak of lead and streak
of zinc. That is not good work.
The mistake made is in trying to do by
hand what is better done by ma
chine work.
Devoe lead and zinc is your paint. Ii
wears twice as long as lead and oil.
This reduces the cost of keeping house
well painted TO half.
Yours truly,
F. w. DEvoE & Co.

umbus was demonstration of the
love of independence ON the part of
the people. The Democratic heal
ers headed up by Jimmy Ross,
took it upon themselves to appoint
committees of their liking to make
Mr.. Hinkles campaign for him.
He very frankly told them he did
not want their assistance nor their
advice in the matter, that he would
appoint his own committees and
make his own campaign. This
looked like political suicide, but it
reacted and the common people,
regardless of political affiliations,
focked to his support, seeing in
him the man that he is, a spurner
of gag and gang rule. He is elect
ed and will make one of the fore
most Mayors in the history of Col
