STATE FAIR CLOSES.
Morgan Horse Club Meets and
Elects Officers.

White River Junction, Sept. 20. The
managers of the Vermont state fair
have another grievance against Jupiter
Pluvius today, when a smart shower
came up at II o'clock and brought so
much water that it threatened to put
stop to the racing, as it did yesterday,
besides interfering seriously with the
other parts of the program. The track
was left in such a condition that it
seemed probable that Thursdays post
poned races would have to be put over
till Saturday, as well as the races origi-
nally scheduled for Friday.
One feature of today's program which
was carried out in spite of the weather
handicap was a monoplane flight by
Dyotte. who went up in his Bleriot
machine and made his longest flight of
the fair series, staying in the air twenty
minutes and flying all over the sur
rounding country.

Advice to Boys and Girls

Save your pennies and send them to
the Hyde Park Savings Bank.
That Bank receives either pennies,
dimes or dollars.
Why?
Because it wishes to encourage the
children to be frugal and to have little
bank account of their own, even though
the initial deposit is the smallest possible
sum.
Children who commence an account
on a penny, a nickel, or a dime, often
grow into capitalists later on.
The way to become a capitalist is 10
