Alleged kidna Pima .

Mrs. Lamora Whittier of Hyde Park
was arraigned Friday for a preliminary
hearing on the charge of kidnapping and
was held to await the action of the June
session of the Lamoille country grand
jury in the sum of $1,000 bail, which
was furnished by her attorney, C. If.
Senter, of Montpelier. The specific
charge against Mrs. Whittier was that
"Lamora Whittier without legal author
ity did seize and inveigle one Blanche
Mcfarland" The maximum penalty for
the offence, as fixed by the Vermont
statues, is ten years imprisonment. The
village of Hyde Park is excited over the
disappearance of fourteen-year-old
Blanche Mcfarland, and although every
means possible have been employed,
nothing has as yet been learned of her
present whereabouts.

The First Ration.

AS many local amateur poultry fanciers
are preparing to set their fowls it may
not be amiss to suggest ration for the
chicks when they arrive. Yolks of eggs
should form part of the food for newly
Matched chicks, for it is that which is
provided by nature for their sustenance
when embarking on life's journey. Eggs
intended as food for chicks should not be
boiled too hard; they should be barely
cooked. The best plan is to place the
egg in not less than pint of water,
boil it for one minute, then let it remain
in the boiling water. standing near the
fire, for six minutes, when it will be
found to be thoroughly cooked. Rub the
egg into stale bread crumbs until rather
stiff mass is made. In addition to this
egg food the chicks may have bread or
refuse crackers, scalded with boiling
milk, animal meal and variety of other
such foods when they are very young.

Under the caption "Lawless Auto
Drivers" the Brooklyn Eagle scores those
who show criminal disregard for the
rights of pedestrians in New York and
its envirous in manner that is not I'M
certain. In speaking of the brutality
and cowardice that justifies the public
hostility to automobiles the Eagle says:
Such an exhibition was made in New
Rochelle on Sunday. A touring car
went whrling through that town with a
party of four and bowled over two
women, killing one of them and fatally
injuring the other, but kept its thirty
mile gait, knocked over a wagon, and
escaped in the direction of New York
A crowd of angry people followed it AS
far as they could, but succeeded only in
taking its number-which is changed
however by chauffeur when he steals
the use of his employers wagon to take
his friends a-riding.
This is but one of several accidents
that might truly be called murders. In
some instances the tourists have made
derisive answers when called to stop and
have driven on the faster, and strangely
it is the women in these automobiles who
have shown the most Indifference to the
injury they have caused.

The Travelling Men.

Burlington Council, No. 23l, United
Commercial Ira velers, held meeting in
their rooms Saturday evening. The first
business was to determine the winner of
the piano, which was advertised to be
given away in connection with the recent
fair of the travellers. The lucky number,
F 80, was held by Paul Cornell, proprietor
Of the Putnam House at Bennington.
Four new members were initiated into
the council. The members then dis
cussed the coming grand council, which
is to be held in the armory May 1928.
This council will bring over 300 travellers
to the city from various parts of New
England. The committees appointed by
the local council are hard at work prepar-
ing for the arrival and the reception to
the visitors. Plans have already been
made for trolley rides to Fort Ethan
Allen, where special drills will be given
for the benefit of the travellers. The
steamer Vermont will also be chartered
for trip on the lake and dinner will be
served aboard. These are only two of
the many entertainments which the local
council have under consideration.
