The UniversaIist Fair.

The women of the Universalist So
ciety seldom fail to bring out new
scheme in decoration at their annual
fair. The event last evening took the
form of a butterfly festival" and
the number of artificial Lepidoptera
that adorned the various booths, the
chandeliers and the heads of the
women that participated must have
run well into the hundreds. Yellow
and white were the predominating
colors. From the central chandelier
streamers of yellow and white bunt-
ing extended to all parts of the hall,
while most of the booths were done
either in plain white or combina-
ton of the two colors. A mammoth
moth was suspended in mid-air from
the center of the hall, and smaller
insects of the same family were
perched in every conceivable place.
The lemonade booth was in charge OF
Mrs. H r. Brown, Miss Addie War
ner and Miss Annie Lamb, the flower
booth was presided over by Mrs {.
L. Stickney, Mrs. l.. S. Edwards and
Miss Edith Farr. Ruth Brown and
Evelyn Staples acting as flower girls:
dolls were sold from a booth in
charge of Mrs. E. E. Flagg. Mrs. c. NJ.
Dugan. Mrs. B. NJ. Switzer and Miss
Lizzie Squires, and fancy articles by
Mrs. Albert Rockwell, Mrs. r. Fl.
Sargent and Mrs. Fred Cressy. Mrs.
Abbott Stone and Mrs. Abbott Ed
wards sold aprons, Mrs. G. F. Barber,
Miss Minnie A. Scott and Miss Mar
ion Knight dispensed candy. Fred
Sargent and Luke Woodward con-
Quoted a grocery booth and Misses
May Edwards and Ada Mason
looked after the young people who
wished to solve the mysteries OF
the grab bag.
The usual large number of people
partook of the excellent supper
which was served from until
O'Clock under the direction of Mrs.
w. d. ellison. Leitsinger's orchestra
played during supper time and gave
a special concert program from
until o'clock The orchestra was
re-enforced by several out-of-town
musicians. including Kenneth Blake
of Lawrence Mass. who rendered
piccolo solo. and its work was OF
the usual merit, which Is sufficient
praise in itself Vocal solos were
given by Mrs. Francis Weeks ana
George F. Adams. From until IL
o'clock dancing was enjoyed by
large number.

CONFERENCE OF POWERS"
TOOK PLACE IN FiTTs's OFFICE
MONDAY.
Central Vermont Would Build Broad
Gauge and Probably Extend Road
to Timber Tracts If 3. & w. Would
Give Up Title.

A conference took place In Clarke
C. Fitts's Office Monday afternoon
between ]. e. Dalrymne, general
| freight agent of the Central Vermont
railroad and Fremont II. Wright,
who last week purchased the Peck
timber lands in Stratton and Somer-
set, In regard TO an extension of the
Brattleboro & Whitehall division into
that section for the purpose Of fur
nishing an outlet for the vast lum-
bering operations which will be be-
gun there shortly. Besides Mr.. Dali
rymple and Mr. Wright there were
present at the conference B. S. Gal
| lup, president of the Gallup Lumber
company whose land adjoins that
controlled by Mr.. Wright, and c. C..
Fits. The matter was very thor
oughly canvassed, and although no
definite agreement could be reached
| 1t is safe to say that the Central
Vermont company looks with favor
upon the plan and would be willing
to build such an extension provided
| it could reach a satisfactory settle
ment with the Brattleboro & White
hall corporation. Mr.. Dalrymple took
the maps which were used to show
the location of the timber tracts un-
der consideration and will bring the
matter before the Central Vermont
management at once. The result will
probably be another attempt to set
tie the litigation which is now pending
between this company and the Brat
tleboro & Whitehall. On the out
come of this attempt will depend
largely whether the millions Of feet
of lumber to be cut in Stratton and
the surrounding towns are shipped
out by way of Brattleboro and the
West river valley or some other
route.
After the conference Mr.. Dalrymple
said that the Central Vermont stands
ready to put in a broad gauge road
between here and South Londonderry
as soon as 1t can secure title or
that road, and if a settlement had
been made last January the road
would have been broad gagged before
last September. In regard to the
extension he made the statement that
the Central Vermont is always ready
to go where there Is business and
that the proposition looks exceedingly
favorable Mr.. Fits said that If the
plan were carried out Brattleboro
could be made one of the largest
wood working centers in this part of
New England.
There is division of feeling
among the Brattlebor0 d WneeHdii
stockholders about giving up the
title, but many Of them would be
willing to surrender their stock abb
solutely provided they could get
binding contract with the Central
Vermont to put in broad gauge be-
tween here and South Londonderry
and to build the extension mentioned
IL investigation showed there was
business enough to warrant 1t. There
are those, however, who are inclined
to belittle the importance OF having
these things done and scoff at the
idea of the Central Vermont having
either under serious consideration.
In the words Of one interested man,
TT would be far easier for camel
to pass through the eye Of needle
than for such people to come to
realizing sense of what is important
to the welfare of community"

The Independents were defeated in
Shelburne Falls last evening by

taken by Boutwell,, who will probably
play with the team hereafter.
The athletic association held a

ranged a tentative schedule of games
up to March l. Festival hall has been
engaged for the following dates:

The high school will attempt to
arrange a series of games with st.
Johnsbury academy to determins
which has the better right to claim
the school championship Of the state.
and IL the honor should fall to the
local five a challenge would In all
probability be sent to Edmands high
school of Burlington, which won the
last years championship. As there
is small likelihood of game between
Brattleboro and Company d this year
a school championship series ought
to arouse no little enthusiasm.
The boys of the Greenfield high
school are up in arms against the
vote of the selectmen to prohibit
basketball in the town hall for the
present. The school has scheduled
games which will have to be can
celled unless another hall can be Sc
cured. The action Of the selectmen
is based on a dislike to have the hall
disfgured by the rough usage that
accompanied basketball as II is said to
be played in Greenfield. There was
nothing rough about the Greenfield
high schoolboys when they played
here Tuesday evening.

GREENFIELD HIGH SMOTHERED.
Local School Team Wins So to o.
Co. / Also a Winner.

Two one-sided games of basketball
took place in Festival hall Tuesday
evening, Comany l and the high
school team being victorious over the
local knights of Columbus and
Greenfield high. In the first con-
test the soldiers, re-enforced by
March and Ellis, retrieved the lau-
rels lost two weeks ago, winning
from the knights by score of 2S to
10. The high school boys simply
smothered their opponents from
Greenfield, scoring 20 points in the
first half and 30 In the second with
out letting the visitors have one SOL
itary tally. Both games were free
from roughness and fast at the same
time, particularly that between the
high schools in which the home team
gave the prettiest exhibition of pass
ing and shooting that has been seen
on the local floor this season.
While Company / was materially
strengthened by the two players
above mentioned, the Knights of CO.
lumbus were handicapped by the abb
sence of p. Ferriter, who was the
center of all the team work In the
last game. The first half ended with
the score 12 to 6 In favor OF the
militiamen, but in the second they
scored IA points and kept their OPP
ponents down to four. March and
Ellis excelled in passing. The high
school game, while never in doubt as
to the result, was interesting for the
reason that II showed that the team
is fast enough to compete for the
school championship of the state.
Pierce and Everleth are better shots
than any other two players in town.
and the secret of 1t lies in the fact
that they have learned to shoot for
the basket instead of the screen. All
of the local schoolboys played well
and the Greenfield players should be
given the credit for not quitting even
though overwhelmingly outclassed

THE KILN DRYING OF WOOD.
The Forest Service Studies the Subject
for Purpose of Finding Best Results.

Drying is an essential part OF the
preparation Of wood for manufacture.
For long time the only drying process
used or known was air drying, or the
exposure Of the wood to the gradual dry
ing influence Of the open air. Kiln
drying, which is an artificial method,
originated in the effort to improve or
shorten the process. By subjecting the
wood to high temperature, OF to a
draught of heated air, in q confined
space or kiln, time is saved and a
certain degree of control over the dry
ing conditions is secured.
There are two points in the mannfac-
ture of lumber at either Of which it
may be kiln-dried. With softwoods,
for instance, it is common practice
to kiln-dry the lumber at the sawmill
before it is shipped. This practice,
however, is i'll adapted for hardwoods,
in which it would produce such check
ing and varying as would greatly reduce
the value of the product. In practice,
therefore, hardwoods are more or less
thoroughly air dried before being placed
in the kiln, where the residue of mois-
ttre may be reduced to between 3 and
4 per cent, which ID much lower than
is possible by air drying only. Yet
another practice obtains in the case
Of few woods which give up their
moisture very slowly With these woods,
of which cypress is an example, the
kiln is resorted to both at the sawmill
and at the factory where they are man
ufactured
Kiln-drying is so important a process
that need is keenly felt for fuller
information regarding it, based upon sci
entific study of the behavior of various
kinds Of woods at different temperatures
and under different mechanical drying
devices. In the effort to develop it to
the highest efficiency, variety Of meth
DDS have been employed, but as yet
these methods have not been carefully
compared with a view to ascertaining
which Of them is best adapted to each
special requirement Of species or Of man
ufacture. The Forest Service has begun
study Of the dry-kilns throughout
the country, first, to acquaint itself with
the methods now in vogue, and second,
to map out such Improvements of the
iSiln-drying process as may render it in
the highest degree satisfactory and pro-
fitabIe.
Mr.. Frederick Dunlap, Of the Office Of
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1905-11-01

Forset Products, in the Forest Service,
who was assigned to this study, has
during the past weeks inspected kiln
drying methods in the states Of Indiana
and Wisconsin, and in the city Of Chi
cago. He found manufacturers disposed
to aid the study By all means in their
power.
In Indiana, hardwood region, the
prevailing method of kiln-drying is bas-
ed upon the use of steam pipes, which
supply the dry heat required in the kiln.
The pipes run on the floor of the kiln,
and the lumber is placed over them. The
radiated heat from the pipes dries the
lumber. In Wisconsin softwoods are
more widely manufactured and blower
kilns are more generally used. In these
air is pumped by means Of circular
fan through steam coll and SO heated,
and then passes on to the chamber in
which the lumber is piled. After pass
ing through this chamber, the air is
sometimes returned to be reheated and
sometimes allowed TO escape.
In connection with the further study
Of kiIn-drying processes, attention will
be given to the value of the preparatory
steaming of wood before the kiln-drying
is begun. For this purpose work is
planned in cooperation with firms which
are interested in experiments to deter
mine the value Of steam treatment.

THOSE PEOPLE CANNOT
HELP WRITING POETRY
Ride So Much on Cars, Says Chicago
Professor. That They Imbibe
Rhythm from the
Wheels.

Chicago, H., Nov. Probably one
reason Evanston produces more poetry
than any other Chicago suburb is be-
cause almost the entire male popuIa-
ton are commuters on suburban trains,
and the click Of the car wheels tends TO
put their thoughts into metrical form, I
declared DR.. Walter Dill Scott, professor
Of psychology at North Western Univer-
sity Monday.
~Of course, the literary atmosphere
can hardly be attributed to steam and
wheels" said the lecturer, "but the form
the effect takes easily may be traced
to the rbythmical click, click of the
wheels as the traveller comes and goes
on the milk trains. The mind is COM
PEELED to break those steady and persist
ent clicks up into spans of two or three,
and uneonsciously the thoughts are
timed with them into whatever metrical
feet the perception has chosen to re-
ceiye the train noises
