1t is encouraging to note that prepare

upon the highway between the Baker

worst pieces of road in town during the

possession of stone crusher for use in
preparing material for road building and
repairs would be great help to the rapid
betterment of the main lines of road
through this county.

BOYS AND GIRLS,
SAVE YOUR NICKELS.

There is nothing that contrib
utes more to health, happiness
and long life than thrift.
Having this in mind, the Hyde
Park Savings Bank has adopted
ideas and methods with reference
to promoting thrift in the mind
OF the Vermont boy-and the YER
mont girl as well-which are re-
garded by some bankers as con-
trary to the rules of good bank
ing.
In other words, the Hyde Park
Savings Bank will receive depos-
its of any size, however small, be-
cause it believes that in so doing
it is encouraging the boy and cir
to become thrifty, Starting a
bank account with a nickel or
dime involves an absolute loss to
the bank accepting so small a de-
post, unless other deposits are
made later on. But banks, al
though their managers do not
always realize it, are incorporated
for the public good, and so the
Hyde Park Bank, realizing it's
duty to the general public, says
to the boy or girl who is willing
to begin saving, "Come on with
your deposits, however small, the
bank will takeits chances on your
becoming a larger banker later
on"
Very few boys and girls realize
the wonderful power of COM
pound interest. The Hyde Park
Bank pays four per cent. and
compounds semi annually and
pays all taxes, and at this rate
boy commencing at ten years OF
age to save a dime a day, and
continuing to save that sum, will
have

| Everyone wishes to know what is being
done at the Carnegie Library, and why
it is not open to the public.
| The work upon inside finish is now be-
ing pushed. The wall finish and decora
tons are under the direction OF Mr.. Chas
Bridge.
AS soon as the window shades are
hung and few minor details are given
attention the place will be ready to re
ceive the books.
The State Library Association will
send competent person here to superin
tend the cataloging and shelving of the
books. An able corps of assistants will
be required to get things into line for use
At present there is no furniture in The
building, and the Centennial Library As
ISOLATION has no money with which to
buy anything; since their available funds
had to be used in filing and grading The
grounds, putting in the cement walk
cementing the cellar and in executing
many smaller items which should have
belonged to the construction work.
The association needs help and ready
cash for the finishing, furnishing and
equipping of this building as Library.
Since the management came into the
hands of the trustees all inside work has
been done in accordance with the sug-
gestions of professional decorator.
The color scheme and the style of fur
nishings have been definitly chosen and
all selections must conform to that
scheme and style. Therefore it is obvious
that whatever is contributed by individ-
uals or organizations must be placed un-
der the direction of the trustees that they
may assist in making choice which will
be harmonious with the whole. How
ever the source of the contribution will
receive due credit for the specified gift
We earnestly solicit your aid now that
the moving and getting established in
our new quarters may not be further de-
layed.

Which is the better, to spend
this dime per day for cigarettes
or other worse than useless things
and late in life be candidate for
the poor-house, or to save it and
be independent? The poet Burns
expresses hisidea of independence
in the following lines addressed
to young friend. They may we'll
be committed to memory by
every boy and girl:
To catch dame Fortunes golden smile,
Assiduous wait upon her;
And gather gear by ev'ry vile
That's justified by honor;
Not for to hide it in hedge,
Nor for rain-attendant;
But tor the glorious privilege
OF being independent.
Remember the Hyde Park Bank
is conducted along strictest lines
of safety and in its twenty-four
years OF existence has been so
pains taking and conservative
that it has never lost a dollar by
a poor note.
It's managers are all Vermont
ers whom you know-men who
never speculate nor deal with
Wall Street IN any way. .
1t is perfectly safe to send your
money to the Hyde Park Bank
by Postal or Express Money Or
der, Registered Letter or Check.
In it's twenty-four years of bust
ness not a dollar has ever been
lost by any depositorsending his
money to the Hyde Park Saw
ings Bank.
Start a bank account to-day
and become a banker. Your bank
pass-book will be returned to you
by first mail, and every courtesy
and convenience which a bank
can extend to its depositors, con-
sistent with good banking, will
be always cheerfully extended.

GUITMAN, Ga, June 10, 1913.
Mr.. Clement Smith,
MorrisvIlle, Vermont,
Dear Sir =
Although it has been a good many
years since l left Morrisville, you will
doubtless recall me as a boy around the
village and fathers store.
We are greatly in need of a good dairy
farm in this county and il is in the hope
that you may be able to put me in touch
with some young man who has a little
capital to invest and has the knowledge
| necessary to successfully conduct dairy
of from 25 to SO head. This city will use
all of the milk he could produce from
such herd and will pay FIR om 10 to 12l2
cents per quart. / often wish we could
get some of that rich Jersey milk that we
used to buy for FIVE cents in Vermont.
This is an opportunity for some young
man to become independent in a few
years If he will come down here and work
even one-half as hard as is necessary to
make success of farming in Vermont.
Land can be bought in this county at
from $40 to $50 per acre, the average
being about $40, and with moderate
amount of fertilizer will make two or
three crops a year and will grow any
thing that can be raised anywhere. One
patch of cucumbers of % acres has
already Melted the owners $4,000, and is
now covered with knee-high corn which
was planted late between the rows. This
country is just awakening to its POSSIBLE
tiles and offers untold opportunities to
the industrious man.
Trusting that you may be able to put
us IN touch with someone as we need
Vermont dairyman greatly and the peo-
pie are ready to pay the prices.
With kindest regards to your family
and yourself, | am, Sincerely yours,
A. o. GATES.
