having just completed shipping $500

section are very serious for the cow

and taking the country and absorb

VERNON MAN A SUICIDE.
Body of Albert Tyler, 35 Found in Pond in
Forest Park, Springfield, Mass Wounds in
Wrist and Chest

The body Of Albert Tyler OF Vernon,
a brother of Mrs J. /. Stockwell of
West Brattleboto and the late Edward
\. Tyler of Brattleboro, was found in
the pond near the entrance of Forest
Park. Springfield. Mass. Saturday af-
ternoon. There is no question that
the man committed suicide, probably
some time on Friday afternoon. The
cause is unknown, but is thought to be
dependency, as the man had no money
in his clothes and no work. +. H.
Goldthwaite was driving through For
est Park and saw the body of the man
in the pond. He notified the park au-
thorities, who in turn notified the po-
lice. The body was taken from the
water, and it was found that Tyler had
cut his right wrist. evidently with the
intention of severing the artery. but the
wound inflicted was not deep enough to
reach it. He had also stuck the knife
into his chest in two places. Neither
wound was serious enough to cause
death. The body was taken to the po-
lice station, where it was identified by
letters found in the pockets of the
mans clothes, and later by A. A.
Dumbleton, distant relative of Ty-
ler's.
Albert Tyler was 30 years old and is
survived by a mother, Mrs Erastus

George Tyler of Cambridge. Mass,

B. H. S. NOTES.

Hello! Is this the manager of the
junior foot ball team:
The basket ball teams are practising
twice a week in the Retreat gymna-
SUM and the school will evidently have
a strong team in the league.
Greene, 'O3, is convalescing from the
effects of injuries received in Wednes-
days foot ball game. The boys should
have been more careful in their hand
ling of the seniors than to lay one of
their men up with an injured knee
The foot ball game Wednesday be-
tween the Sophomore Freshmen con
team was decided by the ref
eree) in favor of the seniors by a score
of 60. 1t seems that Averill in mark
ing his touchdown ran out of bounds
but the official held contrary opinion
and gave his decision in favor of the
seniors. The consolidated team showed
up better in defensive than offensive
work in which both teams were weak.

THE HISTORY OF THANKSGIVING.
Its First Observance in 1921 and the Gradual
Development of the Custom Which Now
Prevails Throughout This Country Some
More Ancient Thanksgiving.

Z DtNtlUpiltub Vi tHc CuSlOUl WHiSh AVN
Prevails Throughout This Country Som,
More Ancient Thanksgiving.
Thursday Of next week is the day w
all celebrate, each in his own way.
Some may choose religious exercises,
some football, and some golf from morn
ing till night but the turkey is com
mon feature in all observances. Why,
other than because of natural fitness,
the turkey should be sacrificed on the
national altar is not apparent, although
tradition now marks him as the victim,
As for the feastin9 which dilferentiates
Thanksgiving day from all others, the
American people were set good eX-
ample nearly three centuries ago, which
still they follow faithfully, if not re
ligiously, for the second governor of
the Plymouth colony William Brad
ford, who first in this land proclaimed
"A day of thanksgiving, sent out hunt
ers to bring in game for n feast, and
there is little doubt but that wild tur-
keys formed part Of their bag. This
was in 1921.
The exact date of Thanksgiving is
not known, but from the fact that it
was an open-air feast it is evident that
it must have been observed in Indian
summer. From this feast, which has
been called an evolution of the old
English harvest festivals, the present
day custom of gorging ones self on
Thanksgiving day may very well have
sprung, but the appointment of spec
ial day for Thanksgiving is custom of
longer standing than that. From time
immemorial the gods have been thanked
for success in battle, and even after
Pilgrims thanked the Lord that they
were alive many of the set days of
Thanksgiving in America were for the
favorable issue of combat \ closer
parallel of our Thanksgiving day is the
old Hebrew feast of tabernacles, or the
feast of ingathering at the end of the
year Moreover, before the Pilgrims
landed in America the civil authorities
in Europe occasionally recommended
the observance Of day Of Thanksgiv-
ing, such As that at Ley len, Holland,
on October 3, l5-I, the first auuiver-
sary of the deliverance of that city
from siege.
For many years after the first Ply
mouth Thanksgiving the day was oh
served in America only at irregular in
teryals and for special reasons Among
the famous early obServances was that
Of 1923. In July of that year a day Of
fasting and prayer was appointed be

claimed a day Of thanksgiving, which
was observed with religious exercises

THE MEDBRER.
"H ne coat MS PIT il on"

4 recent item in the Burlington Clip
per complained in strong language of
a certain train-boy whose determined
efforts to sell his wares made sleep be-
tween Brattleboro and Bellows Falls
impossible. For the satisfaction of
the writer of this paragraph the Med
dler will state that this youth lost his
Job last week on account of three
cents. An official ear was attached to
the train on which the boy was work
ing, and the latter was imprudent
enough to tax one of the officials five
cents for paper instead of the regu-
lar two-cent rate. The official said
nothing to the boy but reported the
matter to the news agency. The boy
is no longer selling papers on the train
Doubtless the boys only way of max
ing enough money to clothe and feed
himself was by raising the price on
papers occasionally, but he was very
careless to try the scene on railroad
official. These personages not only get
free passes wherever they wish to go
but expect cut rates on everything else.
The Meddler cannot help deplorng
the boys dishonesty but he is not
alone in being tickled at the thought
of railroad officials having to pay
for something.

With the advent of new cushions in

have come signs to the effect that "no
dogs are allowed on the seats and eX-
plicit instructions to the conductors
that this regulation be enforced. For
several days after the new order of things
no canine made its appearance on any
of the cars and the conductors began to
wonder who would be the first person
to 90 up against the regulation. 1t

ticed the signs. When the conductor
called his attention to them the man
called his dog to the floor of the car,
spread his overcoat over a
portion of the seat and then placed the
animal on the coat. Ever since then
this procedure has been an every day
occurrence and generally it causes no
little amusement among the other pas
sengers. The second dog to break this
rule belongs to woman who Is also a

new straps for the standing passengers.
