VERMONT BOY HoNoRED
with Appointment as Mayors Executive
Clerk in Providence.

Saxtons River, Nov. 2s.--From Provi-
dence, Rhode Island, comes the news that
Henry NJ. Barry Of that city has re-
Gently been appointed executive secre
tary by Mayor.elect Henry Fletcher. Mr..
Barry was born in SaNt0ns River in
1870, and all of his early life was spent
in this village. After attending the pub
lie schools he entered Vermont academy,
graduating from this institution in the
class OF 1880. In the following fall
he entered Brown university, and the
next four years were spent in regular
academic work. After his graduation
in 1891. one wear was spent by Mr.
Barry in post graduate work along the
lines of his profession, the degree Of A.
NJ. being conferred upon him in 1898.
After q short vacation he affiliated
himself with the Providence Telegram,
rapidly becoming one OF their valuable
reporters. lie remained with this paper
until 1902, wher he went over to the
staff OF the Providence Journal and Bul.
letin, where he has been ever since. AL
though Mr.. Barry's work or this staff
has been of so general a nature that he
cannot be called q specialist along any
line, il is true that he has been especially
in police department work.
NE. Berry is one Of the best known jour
nalists Of Providence, and all Of his
many friends and acquaintance agree in
saying that the appointment has come
10 the right man.

the time conditions were going from
bad to worse right under our eyes.
For instance, only single state Of
the nine comprising the North Atlantic
division showed a smaller divorce rate
per 100000 population in 1900 than in
1880 That state was Connecticut, which
dropped from 81 per 100000 mot married
population, IL must be borne in mind
to so. At the same time, all the other
eight states were piling up their divorces
in an alarming fashion. Here in our own
state of Vermont, whose population has
remained practically stationary in the
period mentioned the divorce rate has
jumped from AZ in 1880 to rs in 1900
per 100000 of population. Far from the
gilded life of the large centers Of popu-
lation, Vermont nevertheless presents,
strange as it may seemy greater in
crease than does New York, the center
Of that very gilded life. This divorce
evil is one Of vermont's great social
problems.

ONE FEATURE OF Co-EDUCATIoN.
It is a novel argument which is being
raised against the scheme of co-education
in the university of Glasgow in Scotland,
and strangely enough it is not the stud
ents who object to the scheme, but the
authorities themselves, much in contrast
to the conditions in the United States,
where the students disagree, and the au.
thorities agree, with the system. But
the reason for the student satisfaction
in the university OF Glasgow is to be
found in the argument against the sys-
tenn of co-edueation, which is, that the
boy and. girl flirtations in the university
are becoming SO diyerting as.to turn the
attention OF the students from their
books and lectures. This Glasgow uni
versity case must be an illustration of
the pro co-educational argument that
the women in college exert refining
and softening influence on the male mem
beers of the Institution.

If 4Amens" are in order, we shall ex-
pect chorus Of them from long
fering public when they read this from
the Boston Transcript:
Bishop Williams Of Omaha has word
to say on fashionable attire that may be
heard in districts outside his own do
eese Women must have their heads
covered in church, the bishop says, but
they may not wear for the purpose the
big hats milliners have prepared for the
season. This win make it necessary for
church going women to adopt the small
hat for Sunday wear, and its general
adoption for other days of the week
will naturally follow. Furthermore, the
bishop says that women must come to
churches over which he has dominion in
dresses Of ia modest nature He does
not 20 into particulars on this point.
His flock may interpret the order as
they viii, SO long as they conform to any
OF the many interpretations that are
synonymous with the term 'modesty." If
the bishops recommendations are car.
ried out, it may truthftlly be said of
congregations under his charge that they
are clothed and in their right mind"

WELL FED ON CORN

Is the tender Pork that you buy from
US. In fact, all our meat is from the
carcasses of well-fed and well-cared- for
animals Hence it is always tender and
very finely favored, yielding most de-
lcious eating Meat Of this kind has
far less waste than the common kinds
and it is therefore a deal cheaper even
when it costs more per pound If you
have never yet purchased any meat from
us it is time you treated yourself.

WHITE RIBBONERS AT DOVER
Delaware State w. c. T. U. Hold An
nual Convention With Much Success

The Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union of the State was we'll
represented at the twenty-ninth
annual convention held in the opera
house of Dover, last week, and the
meeting throughout was one of
great interest to white ribboners.
The Dover Union arranged to
serve coffee which was quite accept
able when the hour for luncheon
arrived. Mrs. Caulk's annual ad-
dress and the reports of the three
respective vice-presidents, Mrs. Mary
B. Donnell of New Castle County,
Mrs. Kate E. Smithers of Kent and
Miss Lillian Cade of Sussex County,
were each excellent and the reports
of state superintendents were very
encouraging. The last statement can
also be made of the report of the
state Secretary of the Young
Woman's Branch, Miss Rietta M.
Emerson of Wilmington, under
whose leadership the Y. Union have
grown and done good work. The
presentation to Miss Emerson during
the Convention of a Silver, gold
lined, sugar bowl and cream cup as
an expression of the love of the Y's
of the state, was a MATTER of
general pleasure. Two visitors
from a distance were present the
first day of the convention, Rev.
Anna H. Shaw of Swarthmore, Pa,
who spoke of her trip abroad, and
Mrs. Effie M. Lambert of New York,
who delivered an earnest address. The
officers of last year were reelected with
one exception, Mrs. Annie w. Massey
the efficiet corresponding secretary
for some years having resigned. Her
place was filled by Mrs. Minnie
Holmes of Dover. There was
a large attendance at each of
the two evening meetings. Mrs.
Kate E. Smithers presided at the
first one when Rev. Anna Shaw
spoke. Mrs. Mary B. Donnell
presided at the second evening
meeting when Rev. John Mayhem
Fulton, Associated Secretary of the
permanent Committee on Temper
ance of the Presbyterian Church in
the United States, delivered
mastery address upon ''The Liquor
Traffic and Its Results. . In
addition to the two delegates by
virtue of office, Mrs. Kate E.
Smithers and the State Press Superin-
tendent, Smyrna was represented at
the Convention by Mrs. Carrie Farrell,
Mrs. Rebeccsl FAIRIES, Mrs. Amanda
Ashcraft and MRS. Georgia FAIRIES.

NEW BISHOP TO VISIT SMYRNA
Bishop Elect Frederick Kinsman Will
Preach at ST. Peters Parish.

Bishop-elect Frederick J. Kinsman
who was recently chosen by the Dio-
cese of Delaware to succeed to the
vacancy caused by the death of Bis
hop Coleman, will be at St. Peters
next Sunday and preach for the first
time in this parish. DR.. Kinsman
will be entertained by Senior War
den w. E. Waters and his visit to
Smyrna is looked forward to with in
terest. Rev. Frederick M. Kirkus,
rector of Trinity Episcopal Church
Wilmington, announced Saturday
night that Bishop Tuttle, of st.
Louis, presiding bishop of the Epis-
copal Church in the United States,
had received the formal consent of a
majority of the bishops to the cleo
tion of Rev. DIR. Frederick ]. Kins-
man as bishop of Delaware. AS a
result, the bishop-elect will be con-
secrated in Trinity Church on Oc-
tober %, at 11.30 a. m. A large
number of prominent bishops and
clergymen will take part in the cere-
monies. The consent of a majority
of the bishop to the election is the
last formality, the different dioceses
having already agreed to the selec-
tion. It is practically certain that
all of the bishops will consent to the
election of Rev. DR.. Kinsman, but
majority vote is all that is necessary.
The consecrators will be Bishop Tut
tie, Bishop Whitaker, of Pennsyl-
vania, and Bishop Niles, of New
Hampshire. The presenting bishops
will be Bishops Lawrance, of Massa-
chusetts, and Lines, of Newark, N.
J. A number of other bishops will
also be present, as we'll as many
noted ministers. The attending
presbyters will be Rev. William T.
Manning D. D., rector of Trinity
Parish, New York, and Rev. Philip
Rinhelander, professor in the
theological school, Cambridge, Mass.
