Contests.

Games of strength and skill to the
music of the Immortal bagpipes were the
features of the excursion of the Caledo-
MAN Club to Marshall Hall yesterday. The

early, and when the last boatload left
the wharf it was estimated that con-
siderably more than a thousand had left
the city for the days Scotch outing.
Children as well as grown-ups participat-
ed in the games. The piece de resistance,
perhaps. was the highland fling contest,
in which Miss Violet Empey carried off
first honors and the Misses Garnet Mat
tingly and Thelma Gray won second
and third prizes, respectively. Miss
Leona Callan was awarded the prize for
being the best dressed contestant. At
the close of the contest both the boys
and young misses danced to the music of
the bagpipes.
The first race was for boys under six
years, and was won by Eddie Nesbit.
Leroy Gutridge won second prize. Violet

BRADsTREET's WEEKLY
VERMONT TRADE REPORT.

Reports to Bradstreet's for the week
show an optomistic view regarding hol-
day trade, stocks this year are practically
all new goods as demand for season last
year cleaned up nearly all OF the stock
then on hand. Some holiday purchases
have been made. Retail merchants stocks
are in good shape and attitude Of buying
public appears improved. The fall of
snow during week helped trade and
more brisk demand for footwear Is re-
ported not only by retail merchants but
wholesale trade as well. Reports from
manufacturers and dealers in maple
gar apparatus note demand SO far this
year compares favorably with that of
a year ago with collections fairly good.
Manufac turers of knit goods state some
new business has come in for l.l1 deliv-
cry but work has not progressed far
enough to determine fully attitude of
1t is stated causes uncertainty and hesi-
tation about buying in large quantities
for future delivery. Machine manufac-
turers are fairly we'll employed. in some
lines. however, new business is slow
Clothing and dry goods retail merchants
consider outlook favorable. and report
present business fully up to period for
season Of year. Manufacturers OF stere-
oscopes report large increase in demand
over that of a year ago Manufacturers
of chairs for export and domestic trade
report plants employed to capacity and
outlook good for future.
In summarizing condition generally for
month of November they compare well
with same period OF a year ago with
outlook for immediate future more fav-
orable. Failure reports for November this
year included one receivership and five
voluntary bankruptcies with liabilities OF
s7,2S3,Sl and assets Of s4,03o5, This was
one more failure than for month Of Octo-
Der. November, 1909 recorded only two
failures, bankruptcies. but total amount
involved was seven times greater than
for November OF this year. Failure
causes for past month are attributed only
to lack Of attentiyeness in all cases ex-
cept one. Fire reports for month jus,
closed give nine fires affecting eleven
people with total damage OF Sal. 600 This
gave a greater amount of damage by
nearly $4,000 than was reported as hav-
ing been sustained from the thirtcer
| fires that occurred In October: November
