THE NEW HOTEL MOVEMENT IN
VERMONT

Vermont has always had the scenery
necessary for great summer resort
and she bids fair in the near future
to have all the hotels necessary for
the accommodation OF our tourists
The example set by Burlington is be-
the near future that both Montpeli ar
AMI Rutland will succeed In realizing
tho plans which have been started in
those respective communities
The St Johnsbury Caledonian an-
nounces that the project TO provide a
new hotel for the Scale City Is MAX
ing gratifying progress The st.
Johnsbury Hotel company. which has
just filed its incorporation papers with
Secretary OF State Guy w. Bailey, has
started out with a capitalization of
100000, and an organization will be
perfected in the near future. 1t Is
stated that the necessary proportion
Of stock has already been provided by
DR.. w. J. Aldrich and II. w. Randall
to whose efforts Is very largely due
tho success of the I'M iertaking thus
far. The new hostelry is TO be built
on the Academy property just sout,
OF the court house. ana It Is hoped
that the exterior can be carried to =
point so that the work upon the in
terror can be carried on during the
coming winter and the whole COM
pleted in time for the tourist season
che coming year. We congratulate st.
Johnsbury upon the prospect of Sc
euring a hotel worthy of the town and
also upon its possession OF men pub

Whene'er the dogf.sh prowls around

Their seahorse for a ride,
And took along friendly soup
To serve them as q guide.
They had not travelled far before
They got an awful scare;
They heard a wild sealion roar
And saw him paw the air.
And as they wildly shrteked for aid
A gallant swordfish came.

In government architecture there

Those who have given thought TO
