The District Nurse.

The District nursing which has been
supported for several years by the
Woman's Club is so purely a philan-
thropic work and one which appeals to
so many who are not connected with
club work, and its requirements are so
much greater than the club treasury can
easily meet that it has been thought best
TO give an opportunity to men as we'll as
women to contribute if they wish to do
so. A generous gift has already come
from one gentleman and the doctors and
ministers of the town are enlisted to help
in various ways. Small sums as well as
large will be made useful. No one will be
solicited to give or pledge unwillingly
but an opportunity is opened to all who
wish to give to this humanitarian cause,
started on the most democratic principle,
to help the needy regardless of creed or
church connection.
Voluntary pledges or money may be
given the club treasurer, Miss Cornelia
Fairbanks at the Atheneum and it is
hoped that the first of January may find
all pledges met.
Contributions of linen, sheets and pill
low cases, jelies, flowers, ETC., may be
left with Mrs. Freelove Spaulding, chair
man of the committee in charge

The signers of the petitions to remove
their telephones met in the Y. NJ. {. A.
building Thursday evening to further
consider the situation. The committee
issued yesterday the following letter to
the sgners of the petitions:
To suggest the idea that any might be
influenced by the Passumpsic Telephone
Co. to keep your telephone after you had
signed the petition to have THEM taken
out whenever the new schedule of prices
went into effect, seems to your commit
tee almost an insult, but when we know
that all sorts of stories are being told
and all kinds OF influence brought to
bear on you to break your agreement
we think a word of warning not out OF
place. For men who will knowingly re-
sort to the dishonorable business OF urg-
ing men to repudiate their agreement
will not stop at anything to accomplish
their purposes Therefore we say to you
that not one single man has asked to
have his name removed from the petit
ton and so far as we know only three
have decided to go back on their word
and we still think and believe that not
only as your word of honor is at stake,
but also in consequence of your obliga-
ton to those associated with you on the
petition and also OF that of standing by
your committee in this fight, you will
absolutely refuse to keep or use your
Passumpsic Telephone Co.'S telephone
until some mutual arrangement is made
whereby all who wish can do so honor
ably We further believe that those
who stand by the petition are entitled
to know those who do not and are thus
responsible for the failure if there is one
We feel that we are entitled to the same
concessions that have been given Woods
vile.

called attention to the fact that a large
majority of the company's subscribers
in both Lvndonville and St. Johnsbury
have assented to the proposed new
schedule, and IN closing said the COM
pany feels that it must adhere to its
pur pose of re-adjusting its rates for
telephone service in the manner hereto
fore explained to your committee and to
subscribers of the company. We hope to
merit continued patronage of our Gus
toners. and we trust that all telephone
users will at least make test OF the new
conditions. believing, as we do that we
shall make good in our endeavor to
render full equivalent for all charges
made by us"

Spaulding chairman, who introduced as
speaker. Rev. E. G.. French of LYNDON
vile. His subject was IAN Investment
that PAYS a Large Dividend, or Our
Duty to the Less Fortunate. He said
in part: One of the real problems of life
is to find the points of contact between
the different classes which make up every
community. The chief end OF man is
character developed through obedience
to thu will Of Cod All the different
classes are to keep clearly in mind this
great object, and in their contact with
each other seek to develop character in
all. The Ink that connects purpose and
need is the touch OF human personality,
and this is made manifest in the settle
ment work of our large cities. Mr.
French closed his remarks with some
very practical suggestions for work.
Remember that classes exist, but are to
live tor and not upon each other Study
your conditions until you know facts.
Find where your personality will count
for most. Be neighbors Care for
the sick Take care OF children. Send
flowers and gifts. Listen TO others
tales of sorrow and woe without telling
your own. Find something that they
can do for you.
