Probably Youngest Man at Head Of
Similar Department in New England.

Clarence B. Gladding, the new chief
of the Barre fire department through
the action of the city council last eve
ming, took the oath of Office this fore
noon at half past nine o'clock before
City Clerk Mackay, and at once enter
ed upon the duties of his office.
Chief Gladding said this forenoon
that the Office was none Of his seeking,
but since it had come to him he would
do the very best he knows how. He is
probably the youngest chief of fire
department in any city of the size of
Barre in New England He was born
n years ago in East Montpelier. The
present chief Of the Burlington fire de.
partment, G. C. Niles, was the same
age when appointed to that responsible
position a couple of years ago. But
while Young in years Chief Gladding has
had long experience in fighting fires,
having Joined the Barre fire department
nine years ago, when but eighteen years
of age. Since that time he has been
continuously in the service. He was
four years with the hook and ladder
company, the last two as its foreman,
having charge of twenty men. He de
was Immediately appointed fourth as
sistant engineer of the department by
Mayor Melcher. When he left the hook
and ladder he was made an honorary
member of that company. The posi-
tion as assistant to Chief Campbell he
held up to the time Of his appointment
as chief
During the nine years that he has
been connected with the department
Chief Gladding has missed but three
calls, once when he was out of town and
twice when he was prevented by sick
ness from responding. III that time
there have been some large fires, ana
he has had a good chance to learn the
duties of a fire department official. BY
the firemen and citizens he is regarded
as an efficient officer As an organizer
he has done good work in the Firemen's s
club, with which lie has been actively
connected since its beginning. He has
been twice president of the club and de-
clined another election, after he had as
sisted largely in building up the or
ganization in membership and financial
resources. The Firemen's club is now
a strong organization.
Chief Gladding will be at the central
fire station all the time to give his per-
sonal attention TO the supervision. He
has had charge of the station during the
past five weeks, at the request OF for
mer chief, Charles II. Campbell, who
felt that he could not spare the time
necessary for all the details OF getting
located IN the new building because of
ha. nrass az rprsonal ma ffara of hus;.
ness. During his term of service as a
volunteer fireman Chief Gladding was
engaged as a stonecutter.

THEY FINISH
WITH CREDIT
FIVE PUPILS GRADUATE FROM
PRIMARY DEPARTMENT OF
MILLeRooK SCHOOL.
Participate in Program for Entertain
ment Of Patrons of School and
Are Passed to the Intermediate
Department = Mrs. Tayipr's Eff
cient Work in the District.

The patrons of the Millbrook school
were very pleasantly entertained last
Friday afternoon, when Edna Bell,
Charlie Pulls, frankie Dalles, Edgar
Hoss and Willie Pulls graduated from
the primary department of the school.
The schoolroom was prettily deco
rated with pine boughs and sheaf oats,
and after singing Welcome Song"
the graduating class gave an exhibit
ton of work in reading, number work,
etc. The work was chosen by the Wis
itors and proved that the class had re
| ceived careful and thorough training.
The class also favored the visitors
with recitations, after which the higher
grade pupils gave recitations, and the
seventeen pupils closed the program by
singing The School Song"
The plan of dividing the school into
three divisions, which originated in
this county, was discussed and pro
nounced by all as very encouraging to
the pupils.
Although not the close of the term
these children fiud finished the work
assigned for the primary division and
have now entered the intermediate di
vision, and feel that they have com
pleted one step, at least, in their edu'
cation.
This school has been very carefully
graded by the bright and efficient
teacher in charge. Mrs, Taylor de
serves great credit for the work she
is doing, and those who have been
privileged to see the interest displayed
by pupils and parents know that the
effort is not lost.
The patrons of the Millbrook school
in district No. A, are soon to give an
! entertainment to raise funds with
which to buy an organ for their school
May good work of this kind increase
all over the county.

1t is hoped by the English people
that the new cabinet will be able to do
something toward the alienation of
the suffering poor in the tight little
isle. From the standpoint of an OBJ
server 1t would appear that Great Brit
ain Is troubled with too much popula-
tion. AS the countries of the earth de-
velop their manufacturing industries,
the people of that nation are gradually
deprived Of employment, Their only
salvation Is constant emigration. To
compete with other nations, the same
favorable conditions must be had.

An Honorable Ambition

The appointment of Associate Jus,
tice ]. A. VanOrsdel as assistant at
torney general of the United States,
will create another vacancy in the SUI
preme court of this state which Gov
ernor Brooks must fill by an appoint
ment. There is no doubt that there
will be an abundance of applicants
for the Mace. While the salary is not
large, in fact much less Than most at
torneys who are suited for the duties of
the Office earn in their practice, it is
the ambition of almost every attor-
ney to at some time occupy the hon
.orable and responsible position as
judge of the supreme court.-Newcas-

PALE FACES
BY Some Thought to Denote Refine.
ment,

What a mistake! In place of re
hnement pale faces denote debility.
"a bloodless face indicates anaemia
or impoverished blood, pure and sim
pie.
What is the result? A weakened
condition OF the entire system, the
development of humors, disfguring
eruptions, and finally a general col
lapse.
we wish your paper would tell ev-
cry man, woman and child in Laramie
yes, and every old person, that we
are so sure that our famous cod liver
oil preparation, Vinol delicious to
taste n without oiD will make rich,
red blood, create strength n restore
them to a normal condition, that we
will pay for all the Vinol they take if
it does not succeed.
why are we so sure? Simply be-
cause Vinol contains in a highly con
%centrated form all of the vital, medic
inal principles of cod liver oil actually
taken from fresh Gods livers and with
out the useless system-clogging oil to
upset the stomach and retard its work.
"Vinol II a natural manner will one
up the stomach, make rich, red blood
and strengthen every organ in the
body to do its work as nature intend
ed. We do not ask the people of Lar
annie to take our word for t,but sim
ply to try Wnol on u guarantee"

adelphia College of Pharmacy.
