The Paris-New York Herald announces
that William Mcmillan will entertain
President Roosevelt on his hunting trip
next summer. Mr.. Mcmillan owns 90
600 acres near Mombasa, the capital of
British East Africa, and his wife was
formerly Miss Lucie Weber, the donor
of the Charlotte Fairbanks Cottage at

says Mr.. Mcmillan in the Herald.
There won't be any luxuries, but Mr..
Roosevelt is used to 'roughing it and l
think he will be pleased with the accom-
mediation"
1t is expected that he will push out in
to the deep forest and lose himself for
awhile although there is plenty of shoot

School Notes.

On account of the badly congested
condition of the Summerville school,
and lack of any suitable room in that
section of St. Johnsbury, the school
directors find it necessary to use the
only available school room in town and
send one grade to Paddock Village.
Repairs on the extra room there are
being FASTENED and it is hoped by next
week to use it for the Sth grade, Sum-
merville. This will leave a room free for
the overflow ofgrades %, which is abso.
lutely necessary, with so many pupils.
This arrangement is only temporary, for
before another year some plan will have
to be made for charging schoolhouses
or building new ones to accommodate the
large number Of pupils in the east part of
the village.

I never tell man to stop COM
