TWO DEAD
DOE FOUND
Animals We're Apparently
Killed by Dogs.
JUST OUT OF VILLAGE
One on Bald Mountain and the
Other Near the
Reservoir.
JUST OUT OF VILLAGE

While strolling up the banks of the
stream east of the village reservoir
Sunday afternoon, John Rogers came
across the carcass of doe that was
firmly imbedded in ice and snow a lit
tie way from the edge of the stream.
Appearances would indicate that it
had been attacked and killed by dogs.
The head was nearly eaten off, one of
the launches was partly gone and
there were various places showing
where it had been attacked.
1t was large specimen, and in fine
condition. From the indications
around it there must have been hard
struggle before it gave up its life.
Although the doe was strongly inn
bedded in the ice, attempts must have
been made to pull it out, but these did
not succeed. Rogers removed one foot
which he brought home and will keep
as a souvenir.
The same day Charles Winslow
found another dead doe on the HStha-
way hill about a mile and a half from
where Rogers found his.
Dogs belonging to Ira Bently of
Sunderland are alleged to have killed
a two year old doe the early part of
the week.
A hearing was held before Judge
Bates today with nearly half the pop
ulation of Sunderland appearing as
witnesses.

SEARCH FOR
A FATHER
Richard Wilson Gone Thirty
Years.
SON LOOKING FOR HIM
Constable Frank A. Wilson Of
POwnaI Started for
Chicago.

Deputy Sheriff Frank A. Wilson Of
North Pownal left Tuesday for Chicago
ILL.,, in search of his father, Richard
Wilson, who left his home thirty years
ago, and who has never since been
heard from.
Mr. Wilson came to Pownal from
New York state some 35 years ago,
married Kate Gardner and for few
years they appeared to be comented
and happy.
She was hustling, hard working
woman, cared but little for pleasure,
while he was one of those happy go
lucky fellows, that always got along.
Disagreements continually sprung up
and one day Wilson departed, leaving
no word where he was going. It was
thought that he would soon return or
send some word as to his Whereabouts,
but time flew on and no word came.
Several years after he left, word
came to the family that he had been
seen in Chicago. Efforts to then To-
cate him failed, and from that time to
now not thing has been heard from
him.
Mrs Wilson, who has never secured
a bill of divorce, died about three
weeks ago. She leaves quite an estate,
a 200 acre farm in first class order,
some other properties, all paid for,
and the son Frank the only heir.
To properly settle this estate, it will
be necessary to secure the signature of
the husband and father to some of the
documents, and it is in hopes to secure
these, that Mr. Wilson, who is the ex-
ecutor of the estate, has left on his
errand.

GOOD TEACHERS.
Is There Any Reason Why District Schools Are
Not Provided With Such.

NOt fIONiutu WIN OuCn.
Mr. Editor:-What sort of teachers
should we have in our district schools?
Should it be teachers with no princi-
pie, no education, only to read it out
of books for the children to learn, and
not even knowing the rudiments of
etiquette.
Must we entrust the early training
of our little ones to teachers of this
stamp because we live in the country?
No! by no means. Good teachers can
be, and should be, secured. Would
it not be more profitable to give a few
dollars more and have a teacher that
you can send your children to and
have them properly instructed. There
are plenty of good teachers that know
what they are hired for and attend to
their business.
A good teacher keeps up with the
times, they haveall of the late methods,
and so many nice little ways to inter-
est and instruct the little ones, that
the itinerant or rowing teacher, knows
nothing of and cares less. The rowing
teachers should be hired by no one
and then they would soon realize that
their places was not in the school
room and in so doing they would
soon be stamped out. t.zSubscriber

HA~ EGARDLEsS of the fact that
social diversions are supposed
to b. forsworn during Lent
or is it because of it?-the
luncheon party fiourishes as a
fad all through the penitential season.
Indeed, the girl who is at all popular
either as beauty or as an especially en-
tertaining guest. even if she be hot a So
cial lion. Will have all the invitations that
she can possibly accept 10 lunch here
and there with various friends all through
Lent
Hence, it behooves her to see to it that
her stock of fancy waists is at its best
and largest, for Sne will have full need OF
all those she can muster.
From time TO time we hear OF the PASS
ing of this eminently dainty ard becoming
little garment, this authority on fashions
declaring that it has held favor already
TOO long, while another gets up in meet
ing and asserts with equal vehemence
that there is simply no possibility of such
coming to pass.
But if, according TO the old adage. ''the
proof of the pudding is in the eating
then We may all see for ourselves that
fair femininity On both sides
of the ATLANTIC have decided for
themselves that the separate waist. the
Fancy waist. the blouse-cail it what you

names-fourishes with even greater
vogue than 1t has hitherto enjoyed.
GREAT NUMBER OF
WAISTS ARE NEEDED.
With, two or three welI-cut skirts, these
either OF sheer voile. Il heavy silk or
velvet, quite a repertoire" of faEcy
waists can he arranged for, and a smart
appearance secured at all times with a
minimum of expense.
Not that these little fancy blouses are
at all times inexpensive-far from it, in
many instances-but the girl who keeps
her eye on the shops will have taken ad-
vantage of the clearing sales which the
very best houses institute Immediately aft
er the holidays and before the imported
goods are placed on sale.
Then can remnants of beautiful silks

widths. exquisite enbrcideries ribbons of
varying shades and weaves and the thou

girl with a touch of originality can use to
such advantage, then can all these be
purchased for a fraction of ther usual
prices.

ionable fancy this spring are such that
