school of Wisconsin and pupil OF the
Chicago Art institute. She is also grad
uate OF the Thomas Normal Training
school OF Detroit, which gives special at
tention 10 drawing and penmanship,
She has had three years OF experience in
regular grade teaching and has served
with excellent results as special teacher Of

High school, She has been highly rec
commended 10 the board for her ability

work,
! In accordance with the statute passed at
the last session of the legislature, notices
have been conspicuously posted warning
/ people against expectorating on the side
walks or in public buildings ON penalty
OF a fine OF not more than $40 for every
such ofiense. The evening OF the day ON
which the notices were posted, that law
abiding citizen, T. T. Butterheld, strolled
up 10 the postotfiee corner with a spittoon
snugly tucked under his arm, and as he
engaged in social intercourse with his
tellowmen, spat oft and with an air OF
conscious virtue into the receptacle which
he carried. He demeaned himself in all
ways according to the latest approved adj
vices from the state board OF health and
while he leaned back comfortably against
a brick block, holding his cuspidor, he
kept the rest OF the coterie hustling TO the
curbing on every impulse to expectorate,
by friendly reminders OF the s10 fine for
each and every offense. The notices are
all very well but a vigorous enforcement
OF that law would either result in anarchy
and riot of tobacco juice or local
option amendment to the statute.
The excursionists to Ausable Chasm last
Thursday left the rain behind them at the
starting points and had beautiful day
for their ride on Lake Champlain in spite
OF the threatening morning. They en-
eountered hard luck, however, when the
hour OF departure from Burlington arrived
and il was found that freight car loaded
with lumber had toppled over from spur
track higher up onto the excursion train
backed onto siding. One empty
passenger coach was crushed in, and as it
was impossible to move the train back
wards or forward, the wreck crew came
from st. Adams and tried to lift of the
lumber car by hitching the taekling to a
tree, which was promptly uprooted.
Three trees close together were then
pressed into service and all three came up
by the roots while the lumber car re-
NAMED undisturbed. As il was growing
late, the excursion train was finally aban-
doned and its passengers boarded the cars
OF the White Mountain train which
brought them to Randolph at just mid
night. Excursionists from Norwich
reached their destination by 6 O'Clock the
next morning.
The reference department of the KIM
ball Public library is now equipped with
the abridged edition of Poole's Index to
Periodical Literature, covering the con-
tents OF 81 important periodicals from
1915 to 1899, with the First Supplement
covering the five years, 10000. In the
reference room are incomplete files of the
leading magazines, whose missing num-
bers are being procured as fast as possible
by gifts from those interested in the
library and by exchange of supertiuous
; numbers with other libraries through
the state library commission. The prin-
cipal magazines, OF which it is especially
; desired to have complete files are the
Atlantic, the Century, Harper's, Scrib-
9 ner's, the Chautauquan, the Outlook,
/, Worlds Work, McClure's and Review OF
Reviews. People having occasional copies
or a years file of the above periodicals
can render great service in providing the
e reference room with this valuable adj
t dition by presenting to the library their
, old magazines, which may be the missing
e numbers desired or may be exchanged for
others. By turning to the Index, one can
d find in what magazines and in what num-
I bers any particular subject is treated with
/. the titles of the articles and the names OF
r the authors.
