FOR A PUBLIC ATHLETIC FIELD.
Plans Formed Tuesday Evening With
This Idea in View.

/ A meeting of all interested in basket
! bah was held Tuesday evening In the
Y. NJ. c. A. rooms for the purpose OF
discussing the best method Of conduct
ing the sport this winter About 80
people We're present and It the enthus-
iasm manifested there is any criterion
basketball will have prosperous win
ter in Brattleboro. Nothing definite
was decided in regard to the formation
OF a local league although it is likely
that steps viii be taken to organize
one soon
From basketball the discussion drift
ed TO the ACCESSIBILITY OF forming a per-
manent athletic organization TO control
all local sports. and II. X. Whitaker
Charles Mann. and c. l.. Stickney We're
appointed a committee to investigate
the matter and report AT a later meet
ing. If such an organization were
formed the proceeds from all local ath
letics would be saved for the purpose of
buying and equipping a public athletic
field. The need of such n field has
already been urged, and il is to be
hoped that every organization which is
represented by any sort of an athletic
team will dgree to give its support TO
the project.
An organization in control of local
athletics would have a wholesome In
fuence upon amateur sport, and by
devoting the proceeds to such an OBJ
ject as is here mentioned the spirit of
professionalism which is always mani
fest in the division of profits would be
obviated entirely. Nothing has hurt
athletics in Brattleboro so much as the
friction which has arisen over the ques-
ton of dividing profits. This was es-
pecially noticeable at the end of the last
basketball season and it is likely to
appear again at any time unless an ar
is made whereby the en-
tire proceeds are placed in a fund for
some worthy object of benefit to every
one. From the spirit of Tuesday even
ngs meeting 1t would seem that the +
plan for controlling athletics under one .
lead meets with general favor, as does
llso that of dedicating the proceeds OF .
III sports to the purchase of a public
ield.

ANOTHER kIPLlNG STORY.
1t is Probably Untrue but Nevertheless
is Interestinq.

1T isn't every man that can write
checks and have the persons to whom
4 he gives them refuse to cash them"
+ said a retired official of the New York
/ City bank. Il have met but one case
/ in all my experience, and that was
when | was in Vermont several years
ago | had a small place up there not
far from Kipling's summer home. Dur
ing Kiplings last year in Vermont he
became alarmed at the growth Of his
expenses and decided to keep a strict
eye on his cash account. Before that
time he had paid everything in cash.
He opened up. an account at a bank in
one of the nearby towns and paid all
his bills with personal checks.
Perhaps he ran to the other ex-
IRENE, for he gave checks for every
thing, from so cents up. 1t did not
take long for the sharp Yankee store
keepers and his other creditors to dis
cover that they could get more for the
checks from autograph fiends than they
could from the paying teller ut the
bank. This was particularly the case
when they attached memorandum OF
the account, receipted in fun, of course.
For a bill against MIR. Kipling for five
pounds of cheese with an autograph
check for S1.25 was souvenir that
commanded a fancy price.
The consequence was that some
checks never found their way to the
bank and the author was greatly puZ-
zled. He began to think he did not
know much about keeping accounts
He would send in his bank book once
q month to be balanced and 1t would
be returned to him invariably showing
more to his credit than was indicated
by his stubs.
'Kipling was unable to account for
it, and attributed the discrepancy to
his bad head for figures. One day while !
Boston he ran across a small
check given for n case of bottled beer
framed and hanging in the study of
collector. That exposed the dodge and 4
the laureate of the people was indig- /
nant. The first thing he did when he
got home was to burn his checkbook, I
and after that he insisted on paying
Ill his bills in coin."-tNew York

Moran & Co.

In its list of Christmas shopping
places last week The Reformer forgot
to mention the store of Moran & Co.
The omission was of course purely
accidental, for a list OF the good places
to go during the holidays would not be
complete without mentioning Moran's
where Christmas presents of the useful
sort abound 1t is safe to say that no
better line of fancy chairs can be found
in town than that which is offered at
Moran's at this season, and the goodly
number of other articles such as tables,
tabourettes fire screens, mirrors and
furniture of all kinds make it a neces-
sary place to visit during the holidays
