and friends in Windham county. lie IS
q brother of Lorenzo w Bush of
Brookline and John A. Bush of Bellows
Falls. While living in West Dummers-
ton he was travelling statesmen for
sewing silks, but now he sells dress
silks. The story in the journal is as
follows:
"a very enjoyable affair was the
dinner given at the Winter Palace hotel
in Boston, ON Monday evening, August
4, to Mansel II. Bush, of Boston, by
party of his intimate friends, the oc-
scasion being the celebration of his 10th
birthday.
. Mr.. Bush is probably as well known
as any salesman in the silk line in the
Umited States, He viii complete on De-
tober Z, 1913, his Both year as a sales
man for the Haskell Silk company Of
Westbrook, Maine, and is still actively
engaged in business, and keeps q great
many of the younger men busy to get
around any faster than he does. He
was one Of the first statesmen going dl-
rect from lie manufacturer to the re-
tail dealer, III this country. In fact the
Haskell Silk company was among the
first, if not the first, to place their bus
mess III direct communication with the
trade through their statesmen.
- Mr.. Bush is also we'll known in
Grand Army circles, being very prom
inent Grand Army man who mas com
mendable war record, having been two
days at Gettysburg in the thickest OF
/ the fight.
Among the decorations in the ben
/ quet room was beautiful bank of
roses, 76 in number, for centerpiece
and the walls we've covered with Gettys
/ burg flags.
= A beautiful gold-headed cane was
presented Mr.. Bush by his friends, and
4 his acceptance speech was characteristic
of the man, for while he showed his APP
4 probation most sincerely, he told hi:
4 hearers in a most convincing manner
I that he did not really need it in hi:
1 business, for he felt as young as he ev
er did.
II "The affair was arranged by O. ID
Baker, the well-known bedding manu-
facturer, a lifelong friend.

4 Unsuitable Kick.

The annual Vermont State Firemcn 5
tournament, this year arranged as
feature of the state fair on the asSorla
ton grounds, was not the success and
pleasing feature it should have been,
and all because someone thought that
some other number on the program was
Of more consequence than the tourna-
ment
Visiting fremen were present from
Massachusetts. New York, Connecticut
and New Hampshire to participate, and
hence because of the presence Of these
out Of state visitors there was hne
opportunity to advertise Nermont amt
White River Junction.
1t would have been good thing to
have had these men 90 to their respec-
tive homes singing the praises of Yer
mont, its state fair and White River
| Junction. but instead they returned
sore and indignant because OF dis
| courteous treatment and an apparent
unjustfiablt interference with their
program. The tournament was TO open
with parade and its stated hour had
been published for weeks throughout
New England, yet at the last moment
the stated hour was changed and con
fusion for the tournament was but the
inevitable result, and this confusion
continued to the end The regrettablC
accident to a fireman on Friday was
but the result oil disregard Of the
rights of the fIemen to the track, fol
urgent as may have been some otheI
number on the program that OF thS
firemen was entitled TO precedence, are
therefore the horsemen had no RICH
to have been on the track, and il ap
pears to us that the man IN the Judge ;:
stand was primarily at fault because o
the accident One word, one wave o
the hand from the judges stantt an.
the horsemen would have kept away
If. this Z. working ont OF the horse
had been imperative then there wa
ample space on the east side of TIL,
track and to that locality, IT seems t.
the Landmark, the official or officials
made grave error in not consgnin,
them The rights of the horsemen wer
in no manner paramount TO those of tn
firemen even if the former had no es
peeial interest in the work of the lat
ter That fair is doomed that doe
not accord to \, who grows potatoes
/, the same rights and prize it does to F
who happens to grow mushrooms.
