Looking for Clubhouse site.

The Brattleboro boat club has held
two meetings within a week, and an
other meeting viii be held in room ~
American building, tonight at $50
o'clock In an attempt to decide
what the club will do this year. The
first special meeting was held Friday
night and James II. Allen reported for
the special committee on quarters. The
committee made two propositions one
was to move the old Cheshire EXPRESS
company building across the highway
and set ii on concrete piers just south
OF the road. The plan included making
Wide NerandaS around the house and
fitting 1t up for a pleasant clubhouse.
The space beneath would be utilized for
storing canoes and floats would be built
along the water front to accommodate the
power boats The other proposition re-
ported was from Hayes Bigelow, pro-
prietor OF the island boathouse Mr. Big
Glow offered either to sell or to lease the
boathouse to the club. After a rather
heated discussion the report was ac-
cepted as 1t did not bear any recommen-
dauons. Neither proposition seemed TO
SUIT the club members present and IL was
voted finally to leave the whole matter
TO the directors. The special committee
consisted Of ]. II. Allen, l. Guy Tasker
and G. A. Harris. The directors held a
meeting directly after the club meeting
and decided to investigate the feasibility
OF renting the Thomas place on the New
Hampshire side of the river for a club
house The Thomas house would be very
desirable for club purposes In many ways
ana there is ample waterfront for stor-
ing the boats. The directors visited the
Thomas farm Saturday afternoon. The
regular meeting was adjourned until
tuesday evening. Stnl another propo-
sition was received then. This was TO
move the Cheshire Express company
building over to the Little river side NJ
the island at point nearly opposite the
island boathouse. This plan met with
some favor and the meeting was ad-
journed until tonight in order IN Give
an opportunity to determine the cost Of

DR.. Samuel G. Dixon, health commits
sioner of Pennsylvania, in a recent talk
in Pittsburg, said that the lives OF 1890
people in that state afflicted with dipth-
iberia, typhoid fever and tuberculosis
have been saved in two years as a result
of the efforts OF the state health officers
and the expenditure of $4,000, 900 for the
conservation Of the public health. The
death rate was reduced from 1871 in every
1000 persons in 1907 to 1873 in 1908. AS
the result of the work of the health
department I'VE know beyond all doubt
that in every year untimely death has
been shut out of more than 5000 of our
homes, and that at least $4,000 of our
people are annually spared the ravages of
acute diseases"
