more than forty years of service, June

During the term Of Commissioner Ray
mond the first law regulating the extern
sion of streets was passed by Congress
nSf uyh fah
missioners power to regulate the sui.
division of property. and required that
all future subdivisions should conform
to the general plan of the city of Wash
ington. While this was under a later
board of Commissioners supplemented by
the general highway extension plan, II ef-
fectually checked the making of subdi-
visions in the haphazard way that pre-
viously prevailed. During Commissioner

irregular system Of streets In the suburbs
was also introduced.
Term Witnessed Progress.
The first electric railway was con-
structed and put in operation during
his term of Office, being the lexington
and Soldiers Home Railway.
During his term also the Washington
and Georgetown Railway Company
adopted motive power by cable instead
of horses on it's Seventh Street line. and
great progress was made in replacing
the high ''T rails on the street rail-
roads by grooved rails.
The water supply on Capitol Hill was
also radically improved by the laying
of a forty-eight-inch water main. and
relatively corresponding Improvement
in the supply was given to Mount Pleas
ant.

FREE PUBLIC LIBRARIES
A Word to the Towns Of Eden Elmore and
W0lCott

There are only three towns in Lamoille
County that have not free Public Lii
braries. They are Eden, Gilmore and
Wolcott. These towns ought to take
action at the next town meeting and have
Libraries.
The State is willing to give 500 worth
of books for that purpose if your town
will comply with the conditions required
by law, which are as follows-First st g
that these articles are inserted in the
warning for the coming town meeting:-
/. To see if the town will elect board
of five library trustees and instruct such
board to make application to the State
Board of Library Commissions for State
aid.
2. To see what sum, if any, the town
will appropriate for the maintenance of
free public library.
If the grand list of your town is lessthan
S250O, the sum must not be less than. $15.
If the grand list is more than S2500, yet
less than $4,000, the sum to be appropri-
ated must not be less than $25.
If the grand list is $4,000 or more, the
sum to be raised must not be less than
$50. Many towns show their desire for
civic improvement by raising much high
er sums than the State requires of them.
The State of Vermont recognizes that
a Free Public Library is necessary to the
education of its children and the devel-
opment of its people in the same manner
as the free school.
If further information is desired, any
member of the Library Commission or
its secretary, Miss r. W. Wright of Mont
pelier, will be glad to furnish it.

Inn Keepers Liquor Licenses

Rutland News
The hopes of the hotel keepers Of the
state, that they might secure special
license for innkeepers to sell liquors in
Towns voting no-license, have been dashed,
as far as the present general assembly is
concerned. The bill had the support of
the Vermont Hotel Mems Association,
representative of the best element in that
branch of business, but even this could
not induce the solons to make an excep-
ton in their favor. There is ground for
honest difference of opinion as to the
merits of the measure which has just
been killed at Montpelier, but the hotel
men will have to make the best of the
situation as they doubtless will. These
enterprsing innkeepers will continue
their effective work to bring an increas-
ing number of city people and automo-
bile touring parties into the state. 1t
will be for their own interests to do SO.
andlt is conterrlnga positive benefit upon
people who are unacquainted with the
attractions of Vermont to persuade them

Lumbago Knocked Out

Lincoln Griswold, the efficient night
watchman at the hide house, has had con-
siderable trouble with lumbago of late,
and how to get rid of it has been diff
cult problem with him. He had thoughts
of trip to Worcester, Mass, or some
other point, where he might consult a
specialist, but he did not think his supply
of the ever-needful would warrant it at
present. He usually goes to his work at
4 p. m, taking with him a well-filled din
ner-pail. One day last week, while on
his way to work and journcying down
the hill, with dinner-pail in hand and
lumbago in back. he met group Of
small boys, taking first lessons in sliding
down hill. He successfully passed the
boys, but the boys did not successfully
pass him, in fact one of them struck him
amid ships, lifting him clean off his pins,
causing him to come down with "a dull,
sickening thud." When "Link" had
gathered himself together and taken ac-
count of stock he found his pail and con-
tents scattered to the four winds-only
the bail remaining in his hand. Strict
and careful search was made for the lum.
bago, but that, too, was gone-it had
been knocked clean out of him and hasn't
been found to this day. At first Link,
was inclined to be nettled over the es-
capade, but so long as the lumbago got
knocked out be calls it good trade.

The Campbell Reunion

The thirty-first annual Campbell Re-
union was held at the home of Chester
Holbrook Saturday, Jan. IS, 1913. The
day was unusually warm for mid winter,
and the weather not of the best, which
accounted somewhat for the rather small
attendance. However. at 1890 dinner
was served to thirty-one members and in
vited guests. And splendid dinner it
was-just such as the ladies of the socie-
ty know how to prepare. After dinner
the following program was carried OUT
Prayer by Chaplain, Rev. o. NJ. Bout
we'll; song by Choir; Roll-Call Secy's
Report; Treasurer's Report; Reading of
Resolutions on death of D. NJ. Peake.
These officers were then elected: Pres

Then followed recitatiens, music and

Misses Amy and Inez Perry. The remain
der of the time was spent in social inter-
course and although the attendance was
small all felt that the day had been most
and profitably spent.

Method of BLEACHING Ivory

To bleach ivory ornaments or pr
ano keys the following method works
well. The ornaments are first wash
ed or soaked if possible, in bath
of unslaked lime, which has in it a
few ounces of bran and water. This
should make pasty solution if prop
erly mixed and will bleach the ivory
which is discolored or stained. It
should be rubbed off with a cloth and
the ivory dried in magnesia powder.
After a few minutes a few strokes
with cloth gives the ivory brilliant
polish.

DIET AND HEALTH
HINTS
BY DIR. T. J. ALLEN
Food Specialist
TRICHINOSIS.

Attention has frequently been
called to the danger of eating
pork not fully cooked. Two
deaths have recently occurred
at Santa Clara, CAL, from eating
of sausage known as "aIami,"
which is made from dried pork.
The pork was raised by the fam
lily and was assured to be
healthy. Examination of a por-
ton of it under the microscope
showed that it was infested with
trichinae, minute. parasitic
worm. A small piece of flesh
taken from the arm of one of the
victims Of the disease was found
to contain more than a hundred
of the minute worms that cause
trichinosis. Several deaths also
occurred lately at Dupont, N. j.,
from the same cause. There
are two ways to avoid trichino-
sis--cook all pork thoroughly, or
avoid eating pork in any form.
This is good place to begin the
elimination of meat from the
dietary il one is convinced that
It is neither necessary FOR bene-
fetal.
