The sixty third annual meeting Of the
Addison County Agricultural society
which was held in the opera house Oh
Wednesday afternoon certainly goes
down in the history of the society as one
of if not the most successful chronicled
in many a decade. From a study of
Treasurer Buttons report one may read
success not only in every line but be-
tween the lines and in the comparisons
made in the expenses and receipts of 1906
with the two years proceeding is told a
story that is synonymous with careful
management, up to date business methods
and time AMI energy we'll bestowed
In no small measure is this successful
administration due to President John E.
Weeks and that his fellow laborers as
well as the rank and file appreciated his
efforts is plainly evident in the fiattering
testimonial given him by reelection,
contrary to usual precedent
In the election of the various officers
the same spirit of "let we'll enough
alone" prevailed and reflections were
accorded vice presidents, John A. James
of Weybridge, E. N. Bissell of Shoreham.
Genial Secretary Fred L. Hamilton of
Salisbury and Treasurer G. I. Button of
Middlebury, assistant treasurer A. P.
Roscoe of New Haven drew the same and
the old board of one year directors, R. H..
Noonan of Addison, A. K. Carr and j..
A. Fletcher of Middlebury will serve du-
ing 1907.
Judge Weeks Speech Of Accept
anee.
In accepting the reelection of Presi-
dent of the Society Judge Weeks said !:
"To be elected to the position of presi-
dent of the Addison County Fair Associ-
alton is an honor that means much in the
life of any individual, and l fully appre-
ciate your unanimous vote in comforting
this renewal of your confidence.
The society today is reality; five
years ago it was only name. Yester-
day we were dictated; today we can die
tale' Ioudy we are recoSHlZeu as Vi
the first, and until that much talked of
State fair has laid claim to the fair acres
by the lake shore we shall continue to
grow in size and in popularity, and even
then we shall continue in the fair bust
ness. Five years ago our location was
simply on the map. Today we are dis
cussed by the body polite across the
Lake and beyond our boundries extending
even to the capitol of the United States.

Little did you and 1 surmise when our
grounds changed hands that within five
years we should witness an attendance
of 1900 people at one days exhibit
ton.
Gentlemen, we can congratulate our.
selves that by hard work andIharmonious
action we are approaching that goal
called success, and, Gentlemen, we can
again congratulate ourselves that our
condition has been made possible by the
expenditure of thousands of dollars, and
by earnest thought and almost exhaust
less labor on the part of him, who, at the
time of purchase, came to US as
stranger but who, today is a beloved
friend and co-worker. II he has accom-
pished this in five years what may we
expect of the future May God in His
prog lence not only spare him another
five years but we will make it forty-five
tennial mark.
Remembering that this association is
of the people, belongs to the people of
Addison county, and in order to make it
prosperous we must treat it as personal
business venture if we will so treat the
matter, we shall be measured by our eff
forts. Let us continue to eliminate dis
sension in our organization, also let us
continue to eliminate all politics.; this
being done we may live to see other So
cieties come and go but our society will
have become if not already there, the
first agricultural society of the State
and our star shall be as radiant as the
morning sum-"
Following the business meeting an
entertainment de luxe was given through
the generosity of Colonel Ilsley the per-
formers coming from Boston under the
direction of the White Entertainment
bureau. Walter Eccles as an imperson-
ator and pretending artist at ledgerder-
main was certainly one of the best seen
here for long time while The Marshalls,
a trio of musical young women with
bit of monologue attachment, were clever
entertainers
The Middebury band rendered a con-
cert program at intervals during the
afternoon.
Actions speak louder than words and
figures won't lie. Thus we have in
nutshell the resume of the society's work
during 1906 iii the particularly compre

THE WHITE BIRCH.
PeeIing the Bark Ruins the Trees
Beauty Forever.

Beauty ForeVor.
One of the loveliest of our trees is
the white birch, with its graceful foli-
age and cleaning trunk, and yet how
often it is robbed of half its beauty
by careless hands!
The temptation to take or strip after
strip of its easily peeled bark seems
we'll nigh irresistible If one may judge
by the countless forlorn trunks along
our roadsides. Instead Of silvery white
columns standing out with conspicuous
grace from the green Of neighboring
shrubs and trees, the trunks are
marred by great black circles, the re-
suits of wounds inflicted by wanton
passersby.
Too often this Is done merely for the
fun Of seeing how easily the bark can
be pulled of, and no thought is given
to the feelings Of the owner when he
finds that one of his finest trees, in
which he took great pride, has been
robbed forever Of it's beauty.
The next time you are tempted to cut
off birch bark, stop. Think Of the in
Jury to the tree and the injury to all
who shall pass that way after you
la depriving them of something they
might have enjoyed but for you-the
sight Of that tree in all it's beauty. Re-
member that the bark never grows
again.
If you have In mind the making Of
some article for which birch bark is
an absolute (O necessity, can you not
at least take it from some fallen log or
from some tree we'll hidden in the cen

JOYS OF LIFE IN HAWAII.

Servant Problem.

Mosquitoes the Only FIaw-Not Even
Servant Problem.
Birds are everywhere in Hawaii.
Their music fills the quivering air. One
wonders why we do not all live in this
paradise, where life seems to stretch
out before one in long, languid dream
Of delight.
Suddenly through your dreaming
comes rude awakening. The Ha-
waiian mosquito, the one flaw in the
gem, the only thorn in the garden, has
called to make your acquaintance and
bid you welcome to his domain.
The houses, with their broad veran-
das filled with palms and flowers and
furnished with tables, chairs, ham,
mocks and grass rugs, are a paradise
to the weary traveller. 1t is here that
the Honolulu people enjoy their glo-
rious climate.
The lawns, thick and velvety as
carpet, were kept in perfect order by
the yard boys, for experienced servants
Chinese, Japanese and Portuguese
can always be had. In fact, the servant
problem causes no worry to the house
wife who has but little anxiety in this
land Of plenty.
Everybody seems to take life easily.
The offices close very early, and no one
seems to know what care is. The sug-
ar barons, their capital once rightly in
vested, draw their dividends, and the
rest Of life is required to spend them.
We stop at the home Of our friend, a
bungalow that is the picture Of CON-
fort. One end Of the veranda is used
as a sun parlor, sheltered by windows
and screens, for what they call cold
days-60 degrees above zero.
Numerous rooms connect with this.

other end of the house and the kitchen

Just in front of the house, spreading

diameter, is great monkey pod tree,
and under it's protecting branches the
children, and older ones, too enjoy the
swings and hammocks in an atmos-
phere which lulls to sleep. As sit
here at midnight dressed in the thin
nest of summer clothing, with never a
wrap, watching the moon rise out of
the sea, we understand why the Ha-

CURLS PUNCHED
ABOVE THE EARS

In the thrtieS of last century. from
which so many of the fashions for 1907
have been evolved, the bellies of the day
wore their hair parted in the middle
and punched with curls above their
ears. For the girl whose style of beau
~ is ingenue this is again an exceed
ingly becoming vogue in a modified
form.
No one wants the Dutch doll type of
cOiffure back, or the simpering pretti-
ness of the prUnes and prism age so
the eurls of the new cOiffures are raised
some inches above the ears and the
center parting is almost hidden by
tresses raised in poufs upon either side
Highly to be recommended for those
no possess short. thick hair is this
scheme of chevelure, for the back
tresses need only to be brought to the
top of the head and there mingled with
the rest in 9 mass of short curis to
complete a very pretty effect
The hair ornament are assuming
strange forms and there is wide scope
for originality in them. The Second
Empire styles are greatly favored. One
idea that was carried out, and although
it does not sound very alluring, it was
much admired, or rather the beautiful
woman who originated it caused quite
a sensation. Imagine a golden scarf of
very fine silken gauze, draped round the
head, tied in loose bow and hanging
ends This scarf was embroidered in
wheat ears and the ends finished in
golden tassels in imitation also of
wheat ears

SITTING FOR A PICTURE.

The color of your gown is important.
Black, dark green, crimson, brown
and yellow take nearly the same
shade. while white and light tints re-
produce about alike.
Your neck should not be dressed too
high nor too tight, or in an exact circle.
With high neck dressing a long face
overhangs and becomes almost de-
formed while a round face looks al
most button shaped and none of the
little tricks of hair dressing or ex-
preston can remedy it.
If your neck is short do not lose
what you have, but lower your drap-
cry, do little judicious borrowing and
pTestoi the face that was round be-
comes oval.
In any case the neck must not be
hidden. for all of the action and grace
of position in a bust portrait centers
there. \ dress cut low in the neck
always seems much higher in the
photograph than to an observer. A
heavy featured face is softened and
made delicate by a soft bit of neck
dressing. a bit of lace being preferable
TO the stiff, standing collar.
If you have a thoroughly artistic
photographer it is worth while TO con-
suit him beforehand as to your dress.
Let him know what it is 10 be or you
may be undecided which of several to
use. and he will tell you at once which
is the best color or in cut, etc While
you are talking with him about dress
he is studying your face, expression
and figure and style generally.
If he be also an artist and experience
ed he may see at a glance that your
customary way of dressing the hair
is not becoming, for Strange as it may
seem, comparatively few women have
the knack of arranging their hair in
the mode demanded by their faces
While ne knows that the portrait
must not be ruined by the hair being
done up in an unfamiliar way, he may
yet give a few valuable suggestions;
for instance to be moro careful in
dressing the left side than the right,
thus signifying that the left side of
the face is the better. Few have both
sides alike.
The uneven shaping of the lips alone
may decide which side Of the face
should be prominent.
