l5OTH ANNIVERSARY
Newbury to Have Old Home Week
Celebration. Reunion of
Seminary Students.

The plans for an Old Home
Week, the observance of the 150th
anniversary of the settlement of the
town in August, although not fully
matured, are far enough advanced
to give their general outline. They
will include the dedication of mon
ument to Gen. Jacob Bayley, erect
ed by his descendants, to be placed
on the common at Newbury village,
"a tablet at Wells River to mark
the beginning of the Hazen Road
memorial tablet to Col. Thomas
Johnson, on the site of his log
house at the Oxbow,-tablets plac-
ed to mark the site of the log
meeting house of the first settlers
of Newbury and Haverhill, the
site of the old Court House of Glou-
eester Co. v. g., in which the Gen.
eral Assembly of 1887 met,-the
site of the sold State House, .
where the legislature of 1901 con-
vened, and the site of the "Old
Meeting House." 1788-1S48. These
tablets will be of bronze, set in
granite blocks.
The public exercises Will include
besides those incident to the dedica-
ton of these markers, special SER
vices during three or four days,
with addresses from prominent
speakers.
One afternoon will be devoted to
a reunion of the students of Old
Newbury Seminary. There will also
be a reunion of the veterans of Or
ange Co., and a reception to Gov.
Mead and staff by the Oxbow
Chapter, D. A. r. A pageant is al
so contemplated.
Newbury is the oldest town in
this part of Vermont. It was a
frontier town, and the scene of STIR
ring events in the revolution
ary war, and the residence of pa
triots The town, with commend
able public spirit, has provided for
this observance.

Senator Davis, in an interview at
Ozark, derided spontaneously the
aristocratic pretensions that too many
Americans, as soon as they get rich,
assume.
Its hard to be aristocratic in a
democracy like this" said Senator
Davis. We've got no criterion, no
measure, and hence. as aristocrats, we
never can tell where we stand.

Weston,
o., Capitalist
BY CLatldine SiSSosi

There is an old saying to the ef-
ha doesn't know what may happen.
Perhaps Mr.. Guy Hilton had never
heard anything about it, but he went
a-ishing and many things happened
that he did not look for
Mr.. Hilton went with little party
of three, and the quartette camped on
Loon lake and fished. 1t was called
Loon lake, because no one unless he
was looney ever went there thinking
| to catch fish. After couple OF weeks
Mr.. Hilton was taken with chills and
had to go to a farm house and call a
doctor, and the other three broke camp
and went home.
In two weeks the patient was cured
and ready to follow. Then came an
other unexpected thing When the doc
! tor and the farmer had been paid Mr..
Hilton found himself stone broke.
When man Is stone broke he hasn't
got nicked in his pockets. 1t would
be all right, however, when the pen
niless man got down to the village of
Rockford. Some merchant there
would cash his check on a city bank.
He would want only four dollars for
railroad fare.
! Mr.. Guy Hilton didn't look like a
confidence man. He wasn't sly, sleek
and slick. Like any other man with
a fair bank account and a reasonable
1 trust in human nature, he wrote out a
/ check for four dollars and asked the
leading merchant in the town to
/ cash it.
THAT game is too old even for this
village" was the reply.
Game? Game? l have money in
this bank" said the astonished young
man.
But you ought to have 1t in your
pocket instead"
you can telephone the bank and
make sure it's all straight"
But of what interest to me? I am
not here to help folks out of troubles
they get into
How foolish the stone broke man
had been to apply to stranger, when
ne could telephone to a friend in the
city and have a hundred dollars sent
up. He went to the postoffice, which
