Three ex-Guards Arrested

Three former guards of Windsor
prison have been arrested. Alvah
Sanderson, ID, who was discharged
from service May II, has been ar
rested at Boston as a fugitive from
justice. He is charged with giving
poison to Edward Casey, a prisoner,
Feb. 2, the day previous to the date
first set for the execution of Mary
Rogers.
Harrison Mccormick was arrested
at Brattleboro on the charge of fur
nishing food to prisoners without
consent of the prison superintendent.
He was held for trial in county court
under $500 bonds.
Charles A. Hanson, also formerly
guard, was arrested at Canaan, N.
H., on the same charge facing Nc
Cormick. He was fined $50.
J. E. Enright, counsel for McCor-
mick and Hanson, claims that their
arrest, as we'll as that Of Sanderson,
is part of a plot connected with the
suit OF Mrs. Edward Burr against
Miss Gertrude Kinball for alternating
her husbands affections. Sanderson
is brother of Mrs. Burr. The Kim
ball girl is still employed at the
prison. All complaints were made
by States Attorney Charles Batchel-
der of Windsor county.

ments; by supplying the individu
ais need where the school cannot
meet it; by setting a standard Of
morality in the home that is worthy
imitation, and teaching the truths
of religion; and finally by appre-
eating the teachers work and worth.
How can the school help the
home? BY providing larger place
in which the child may grow; by
supplying a good and consistent
authority; by expanding the sym
pathies; by throwing youth on his
mettle; by acquamting him with
the force of public opinion; by de-
veloping the instincts of comrade-
ship and leadership; and by form
ing good business habits.
In brief, the home is the great
preparation for the school, and the
school is the great supplement for
the home.
The valedictorian, Miss Lila EN-
ma Reed, took for her subject,
School Attention to Music" begin
ming with a comparison of the uses
of the two senses, sight and sound,
with the conclusion that sound was
of more Importance than light or
color. After brief allusion to the
history of music the speaker referred
at some length to its effect in the oc-
equations, in tightening the fatigue
of labor, and the successful use of
music in medicine in treating ner-
vous and mental diseases. Its help
full and harmonizing effect in the
home was another plea for the study
of music, and the speaker hoped for
it further extension in the schools |
of Vermont.
The exercises closed with the pre-
sentation of diplomas by Principal
E. S. Watson, and the benediction.

THE GRADUATING EXERCISES

The graduation exercises were
held at the Congregational church
Friday afternoon, beginning at 3
o'clock, in the presence of a large
audience, the program being carried
out very successfully, with excellent
music by the Windsor orchestra.
After an overture by the orchestra,
and prayer, the salutatory address
was delivered by Eugene Charles
Wilcox, who began with pleasant
reference to the day and welcome
to the friends of the class.
The speaker followed with hui
morous consideration of the charac-
ter of the class of 1905 as a whole
and of its individual members. In
brief discussion of true education
and the aim of the class, his con-
clusion was that most of their future
education must come from wise
reading.
"THE HOME AND THE SCHOOL"
Prof. H. II. Horne Of Dartmouth
college then delivered a strong and
scholarly address to the class, his
topic being "The Home and the
School" He said in part:
What is the significance of the
home in society? Of all the great
social institutions of man it is the
first in time and importance. 1t is
the primal unit of society. In il
centre all the elements of man.
making, heredity, environment, and
will, 1t is the temple of the love Of
humanity, the pattern Of Heaven Oh
earth. And it is the main agency
of moral and religious education.
What is the significance of the
school in society? 1t receives from
the home a potential man; it gives
to society a developed man. Il
passes on from generation to gen
Grafton the torch of knowledge, ant
makes progress possible. 1t enables
the individual to find the secret o
his true power. 1t does for tn
children what parents have not tn
time to do, and makes its pupils a
home in the larger world of truth
beauty, and goodness.
How can the home help the school

both of speech and action; by sup
porting reasonable school require

Mr.. Browns Slaughter Of Wood
chucks.

James D. C'Strawberry'') Brown of
Plymouth was in town Wednesday,
in better health since his return from
Florida. AS usual, he had a good
wild animal story to tell, this one
concerning a big killing OF wood
chucks; but at the same time he was
well worked up over his defeat in try
ing to prevent the issuance of liz
uor license in Plymouth. The wooo-
chuck and rum incidents, it will be
n )ted, have some connection.
To take the taste of defeat out OF
his mouth, as Mr.. Brown says, he
shouldered his shotgun and struck
out for his wildcat nursery" With
shotgun he never misses his mark,
but believes he couldn't hit barn
with rife unless he was inside and
the doors shut. With five shots he
killed seven woodchucks, knocking
over three young ones in a row at one
discharge
For four days more Mr.. Brown
kept up running fight against the
woodchucks with the same fatal ac-
curacy of gunfre, killing 30, wound
ing others, and some missing.
The total number of deaths in the
five days action was 81 in 30 shots
"a record that will probably stand
for years.

W, N. S. COMMENCEMENT.
Exercises Held at the Congregation
al Church Friday.

AZ Church fruay.
The commencement exercises OF
the graduating class Of the Wood
stock High school began on Sunday
with the baccalaureate sermon de-
livered by Rev. f, G. Putnam at the
Congregational church in the morn
ing.
THE BAcCALAUREATE SERMON.
Rev. Mr.. Putnam took his text
from | Cor. 3: 2l-23, and his ser
mon was a strong plea for right liv-
ing and righteous effort. He said in
part:
"All are yours" because ye are
Christs'. Paul sweeps within the
range of the Christians vision the
world and the fulness thereof, and
all eternity.
But, as Christians, we belong to
Jesus Christ, whose were all things,
and, in our use of them, we must be
governed by Him. He was the
Truth. The truth is ours, and so,
all services of truth we can fearless
ly take, thus insuring to ourselves
a symmetrical development of in
telligence and character.
All things are ours to use-not to
abuse: to use in the service of God
and humanity.
There never was a time when it
was grander thing to be a young
man than today
There are wrongs of all sorts to
be righted in every sphere. Truth is
sighted through hypocrisy, through
fear or partisan zeal in economic,
scientific and religious circles.
On every side there is such mighty
need for men and women, who are
strong in the purity Of their hearts,
the unselfshness of their purpose,
their faith in God, and their reliance
on Him, that any one who is awake
to see the signs of the times cannot
fail to have his pulse quickened, his
soul kindled, his whole nature
reused by the supreme character of
his calling into the service of the
truth.
Members of the graduating class:
"All things are yours" The whole
created universe, life, death, present
and future. 1t does not end here.
Believers are but part of that
golden chain which must be follow
ed up till it unites them to Christ,
and even further yet, up to the
presence of God HIMSELF" and there
is fulness of Joy forevermore.
1t is impossible thus to set before
the mind a 1.-THE of the power, of the
responsiveness, of the glory of Pauls
vision Of glorifed Christian man
hood But God grant that we may
allow his servants eloquence to
move us, as he did the Corinthians
long ago, to fuller conservation of
all our powers as we hear in our
hearts, once again, the echo of his
words
Wherefore let no man glory in
men. For all things are yours:
whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas,
or the world, or life, or death, OF
things present, or things to come.
All are yours, and ye are Christ's,
and Christ is Gods"
