A Lecture of Importance

subject of vital interest to the pro-
gressive teachers of Vermont is the help
which they may obtain from libraries iu
their work as educators. The importance
of cooperation between the school and
the library has been understood by the
state. Travelling libraries have been pro.
vided for the use of schools in rural dis
tricts. Where there is a town library
the teacher can be of inestimabe service
to the pupil by guiding him in his choice
of reading. In purpose, the work of the
library and of the teacher should be one.
Realizing this, the Vermont Library
Commission and the Vermont Library
Association are sending Miss Alice A.
Blanchard to talk upon this subject.
Mise Blanchard was in johnson today and
spoke at Normal hall at $3.50 O'Clock,
taking for subject "Children's Books"

An Interesting Musicale

The recital given by the class in music
taught by Miss Doris V. DeNio at the X
P hall last Saturday afternoon waslarge-
attended and all were most amply repaid
for Drawing the inclement weather. The
hall was attractively trimmed with fl tgs
aid bunting. Richard Nye and Wilbur
Barrows, members of the class, served as
ushers. A printed program was given
each guest, copy af which is given be-
low, and each separate number was so
we'll rendered that it isn't possible to
make special mention of any. The songs
by Miss DeNio, ably accompanied by Miss
Frances Mobiles, were also much enjoyed.
The program was as follows:-
March, Mai Konigin; Song, Welcome
Sweet Springtime, Glass; Fido and his
Little Master, Song of the Wind, Mary

Chimney, Ila and Clifford Saynes; Scarf
Dance, Hurmoreske, Venetian Love Song,
Retrospectiou, Alice Mcfarland; Ameri-
ca, Class.
The class gave gratifying evidence of
having done faithful work in the year in
which they have been under Miss DeNio's
instruction, as only two or three had re-
ceived any musical training before that
time. OF Miss DeNio's faithfuness aid
ability as a teacher of both vocal and in
strumental music too much cannot be
said. The pupils gave ample proof of
her thorough, careful training in her
technique and also in the little details so
often overlooked, yet so necessary to fin
ished work.
Miss DeNio also has a strong yet win
ming and womanly personality, which of
itself is of a large value to her pupils.
Several new pupils are to be added to
her class very soon.
At the close of the program ice cream
and cake were served and a social hour
was enjoyed. X.

Names of the Grapefruit.

The grapefruit is simply variety OF
the shaddock. How it got the former
name is a question, but how it got the
latter is a matter of history. The tree
was named after Captain Shaddock'
who early in the eighteenth century
took it to the West Indies from the
Malayan and Polynesian Islands. of
which it is native. Perhaps no other
tree or fruit has so many names or so
many queer spellings of a single name.

name of forbidden fruit" it is called
