BRANDON LOSES COMPANY
Burlington is After Charter Of Com
pany c., v. N. G.

Burlington, Nov. THE new com
pany of the Vermont National Guard,
now being recruited in this city, will
be known as Company c, instead OF
Company X. When the company
was first started, II was expected
that 1t would be designated as Com
pany X because of the fact that the
company of this letter located in
Bennington had been disbanded AS
soon, however, as the formation of
new company here was begun, the
citizens OF Bennington got together
and recognized Company X. Com
pany c of Brandon, in pursuance OF
orders just received from headquart-
ers by Major Frank p. Johnson of
that place, has now been disbanded,
and the letter goes to the new com.
pany here. The reason for the dis
banding OF the Brandon company is
given as insufficiency OF strength.
The officers OF the company there
have all received honorable dis.
charges from the service. These of.
ficers, however. do not include Major
Johnson whose rank is superior.

Cold Wave VIII Reach the Eastern
States Late In the Week.
Washington, Nov. pronounced
weather changes throughout the Uni
ted States are predicted by the wealth
er bureau in its forecast for the week
which also announces that western
Europe is in the grip of severe
storm.
THE severest storm OF recent
years over western Europe and the
British Isle, says the bulletin, was
central Sunday morning over north
ern Scotland. where the barometer
pressure was PSI inches. 1t is caus-
ing gales and rains over waters ad-
jacent to western Europe and will
undoubtedly result In considerable
loss Of lives and shipping in that re-
gion. This storm will move eastward
over northern Europe the first part
OF the coming week.
"In the United States decidedly
colder weather will overspread the
northwestern states Tuesday and
Wednesday. and advance eastward
over the middle west Wednesday and
Thursday and the eastern states the
latter part Of the week II is prob
able that this cold change will be at
tended by SHOWS in the northern
states"
