a lot of nice things to say about
Hugh Bedient, the Red Sox pitch
er. Connolly was one man who was
not surprised by the wonderful
showing made by Bedient in the
worlds series. II saw that young
fellow pitch a game in New York
late in the season" said Connolly
the other day. "and ] was amazed
at what he showed that day. I
never saw anything better. So good
was his work that l told McAleer
afterward TO watch him warm up
some day while the post-season
series was being played, and If he
could show anything like what he
had on the day referred to, neither
the Giants nor any one else could
beat him He is as cool as ice and
has a great physique for pitcher

liant career"

Mr.. and Mrs, P. c.. Elmer and son

! Mr.. and Mrs. l.. G. Drolette.
Mrs. l.. Dewitt has received a letter
from Mrs. Frank Bargey of lion, N. Y,
telling of the death of her mother Mrs
Mary Burton on the 18th inst. from a
paralytic stroke. Mrs. Burton will be
pleasantly remembered by those who
knew her while living here for long
time with her youngest daughter, Mrs.
Geo. 7. Dimmock. She has been in poor
and declining health for the past two
years, but when she went to stay for d
while last fall with Mrs. Bargey she was
quite as well as usual and endured well
the fatigue of the journey. The sad
news of Mrs. Dimmock's death and the
suddenness of it was a great shock to
her, and the unceasing mourning for the
daughter who had gone, with her feeble
condition, she could not rally from. Mrs.
Burton was the widow of Rev. Charles
Burton who died in Nineland, n. J.,
several years ago. She had from her
glIlhoOd been devoted member of Il q
Methodist church. Her voice was often
heard IN testimony of her faith and com
fort in the religion she so zealousy spoke
and lived for. Her prayers were earnest
petitions for the good of all. Her neigh
Dols Al d friends felt when she left them
this time that they would never look on
her face again, but pleasant memory is
left with them of her whom they on, e
knew and whose presence and compan-
ionshp they enjoyed. She had pass, d
her seventy-eighth birthday. Besides
the daughter, Mrs. Bargey, at whose
home she died another daughter, Mrs.
Ida Prefer, of Chicago Ill, and eight
grandchildren survive her.

can be said, too, that the Surplus has
not been paid in" but has been earn

Each year, after paying current ex-
penses, interest to depositiors, and the
state taxes, certain portion of the

for instance, last year, over six thOus-

after this was done there still remained

And, as Bank 5 increase in depos-

of its soundness and strength, the fact
is significant that in the past four
years this bank has gone from the ninth
position in size among the twenty-one
Savings Banks of the state to the fifth.
Its. books show that for the week lust
exceeded the Withdrawals by over
eleven thousand dollars.
Then, too, the confidence placed in
the institution is more than state wide
A glance at Commissioner Williams re-
port will show that over three hundred
of its depositors are residents outside
the state with total deposits of over
one hundred thousand dollars.
Surely these are strong facts and are
worth due consideration on the part of
anyone with money to invest in safe
investment.
The Marble Savings Bank pays 4
per cent interest compounded in Janu-
airy and July. All dividends not with
drawn go on interest as a deposit
Money received on or before the fifth
of February draw interest from the
first, and deposits made after that date
go on interest the first of March.
When mailed, deposits should be in
the form of personal check, bank draft,
postal or express money order, and the
book will be returned Immediately
showing proper entry.

guardian of children. Every little
while we read in financial publication,
or on the financial page of our daily
paper, of this or that proposition which
is considered by ''so-and-so' as a safe
investment. Then we catch glimpses
of advertisements furthering this or
that scheme which is purported to be a
sound investment. But when we sim
mer it all down and consider the ques-
ton from all sides, we are forced to the
conclusion that there is nothing safer
than our State Savings Banks for the
average person when seeking a deposi-
tory for his or her savings. Bank In
spector +. C. Williams of Newport, in
his report dated June 80, 1911, says,
money is as safe today in the Vermont
State Banks as it can be in any known
class of investment, and the net income
to depositors is more than they can re-
ceive upon any class of investments
where the security is as good
But even in choosing a Savings Bank
in which to leave our money there
should be the feeling that THE best is
none too good for me-. " And with this
in mind, the old Marble Savings Bank
of Rutland commands our attention.
This institution has passed unscathed
through the financial panic of the last
quarter century and in all the years of
it's business experience it has held a
leading position in the ranks or our
strong state savings institutions.
This may be attributed to a number
of causes. First and above all, an
institution with such record must be
backed by a strong management. -
Judicious men must be at the helm d.
recting its course. -Diligent and pains
taking care must be the underlying
principle in every transaction. This
is true in the case of this Savings
Bank. Lince its incorporation the trus-
tees have held fast to the policy laid
down by our State Legislators, name
ly that the safest asset Savings Bank
can have is first mortgage on a farm,
or real estate. The bulk of The Marble
Savings Banks money is invested in
just such security and it has proven the
safety and practicability of the above
idea. In the more than quarter of g
century of the banks existence it has
never lost dollar on farm mortgage
note.
Besides its conservative manage
ment at the hands of Directors who
direct" The Marble Savings Bank
carries reserve or Surplus Fund OF
over one hundred thousand dollars.

Postmaster General Hitchcock in his
annual report recommends congress
sional appropriation for the establish
ment OF experimental mail delivery in
towns and villages having population
OF 900 or more.
Delivery by letter-carrier, except on
rural routes, is confined TO cities and
towns having as much as 10000 popu-
latlon or annual post-oiiice receipts of
$4,000 or more. The city carriers,
Mr.. Hitchcock estimates, serve about
45,OO0,0O0 people and the rural delivery
service reaches about 10000, 900 more.
This leaves about 100000 persons,
most Of whom reside in the small
towns and villages, without any form
of mail delivery. These 25,00000C
must walk to the post Office for their
letters anG papers, or 'send hand,
or trust to the courtesy of neighbors.
Mr.. Hitchcock evidently believe,
that "sauce for the goose is sauce fol
the gander" and that If free deliver,
is a good thing for the city folks ant
for the farmers IL also would be apprec
lated by the dwellers in small towns

Champ Clark is candidate for the
Democratic Presidential nomination
and has made formal announcement to
this effect. There is no reason why
he should not be candidate. He has
fought and bled ard died as much for
the Democratic party as any other man
and he has never once lost his faith in
the eternal principles for which it
stands. For sixteen years, when many
of his colleagues were crying out
against the DEGREES Of fate, this man
never lost heart or hope or trust in the
saving common sense of the American
people.
OF Mr.. Clark's high character, his
faithful service, his loyal Democracy,
his eminent ability, there can be no
doubt. He has been in public life for
great many years and is now serving
his ninth term in Congress. During
all this period he has been an active
force in National legislation and there
is no stain of party disloyalty or per-
sonal dishonesty on his honorable re-
cord.-Raleigh Observer.
