The ardent controversy which has
been waging in England and America
concerning the best way to dispose of
school boys in the long summer vaca-
ton has prompted the Grand Trunk
Railway System to issue special publ,
cation giving suggestions and practical
hints to parents, as to what to do with
the public and preparatory school boy
during the months of July and August.
The vacation camp is one of the solu-
tions and the publication entitled,
"What shall Boy do with his Vaca-
ton" thoroughly covers the ground aud
solves the problem of the best way for a
schoolboy to enjoy his holidays.
A copy may be obtained for the ask
ing by applying to J. Quinlan, d. P. A,

1t must be gratifying to the Hon.
Horace w. Bailey to read the compl-
mentary references that are being made
by the state press, and Others, to his
historical booklet recently published as
preparatory to the Champlain tercenten-
sry celebration. New York has had
similar publication brought out at nine
times the expense put into the Vermont
volume, and yet it is generally conceded
that the superiority of the one issued by
the Empire State is confined to its bet
ter grade of paper and more attractive
appearance. That it is not thought
equal in subject matter to Mr.. Bailey
book illustrates again his capacity to
execute well what he undertakes, and
We are pleased to note it.

a PERSONAL GREETING.

With this issue the Herald completes
thirty six years of its publication, five
in Guildhall, thirty-one in Island Pond
During that period it has witnessed
many changes aud much improvement.
in the town, county aud state, with all
Of which it has tried to keep pace. It's
local field has been somewhat limited,
principally because of its geographical
home 10 one corner of the state, but it
has striven to keep ia touch with general
affairs, to bring to its patrons the best
obtainable information and to exclude
trash from its columns.
During these thirty-one years it has
been under the personal management OF
its present editor. This has been, aud
still is, his life's work aud only he who
las known similar experience can COM
prehend just what that means.
We have had OAR peculiar sorrows
and joys. have met misapprehension and
known the appreciation that comes to
one in our place; and were it not that
we feel that, in the best sense. the
former have faded out in the light of
the latter, we could not be as content
and hopeful as we are on this anniver-
sary. Were it not for this fact, we
would have nothing to say at this time
and We are taking this opportunity to
assure all our readers that we have in
deed felt the i'll and the good that time
has caused us to note of them, and that
We are still trying to see the cheerful
side, to bring that to them, and to keep
hope ever in the foreground.
A glance at the files of a generation
ago does not discourage us. We feel
that We have made some advancement
ourselves, aud, while We miss many a
staunch friend whose name appears
there, we realize that others have come,
not the same, but still of like mettle,
and, as this is the natural way, We know
that it would be unreasou abl lie to be in
any sense respondent. Therefore, We
greet you of whom we are still part in
our particular sphere, with good cheer
and the assurance that We are, as we
have been, glad to 60 Oh in our efforts
to help surmount, with you, the oh.
stacles, and continue the advancing wei
fare of the place where We have so long
time been, and hope for while longer
still to be.
