WASHINGTON. June ll.-(Special
to The Advertiser Activities of the
Hawaiian sugar interests in tehnlf Of
a tariff on sugar were taken up again
today by the senate lobby committee.
Royal d. Mead, employee of the Ha.
waiian sugar planters association, was
n witness. He said he received n
salary of $1,000 month for his work
in Washington. His operations, he said,
were confined to the gathering and dis
tribution of sugar statistics, and he
thought $4,000 would cover his annual
expenses. He had been associated with
the domestic sugar producers organiza-
ton, which has directed the sugar tariff
publicity campaign IN Washington.
In May, he said, he and Sidney NJ.
Ballou terminated a $4,000 contract
for publicity work by the press service
bureau of which Il. W. Mayo was head
Mead produced detailed account of
all his receipts and expenses in Wash.
ington. He had received $4,000 from
the Hawaiian sugar planters associa-
ton and had spent $554s.ls up to last
night.
Mayo at 5000 Week.
Mead told the committee that after
making the $25,060 publicity contract
with Mayo, the domestic sugar pro-
ducers had retained Mayo at salary
of 5000 a week to help run the sugar
publicity campaign. None of the money
spent for advertising, said Mead, had
been used to influence. the editorial
policy of newspapers. L.a15y
The total amount spent by the Ha-
waiian planters association, for all
purposes, was about 100000 year,
which was raised by assessment, the
total being something less than one
dollar ton on the total sugar prodnc-
ton.
Most of the money had been used,
he said, for sugar experiment station
in Hawaii and for securing Philippine
laborers. 80"
Paxton Explains Presence.
Elmer f. Paxton, who followed Mead,
said he came to Washington in March
to represent Alexander & Baldwin,
owners of Hawaiian sugar plantations
worth $27,0O0,00O. Conferences had
been hold with other sugar interests,
he said, and letters had teen sent to
1900 or 1000 customers of his firm
urging them to write to their congress
men and senators and protest against
free sugar.
Gronna Annoyed.
Upon the demand of Senator Gronna,
the committee today subpoenaea A. Y.
Moore, publisher, and A. NJ Baker,
manager of the Courier News, of Fargo,
North Dakota, to explain recent .edi-
torial intimating that Senator Gronna
knew something of the use of money
in Washington to influence legislation.

DR.. PRITCHETT LECTURES S
President Carnegie Foundation
Gives Pleasing Address.

President Henry S. Pritchett of the
Carnegie Foundation addressed on Fri
day evening the students of Middlebury
College. President Pritchett is spend
ing some time in Vermont in connection
with the study being made for the Edu-
Watson is the chairman. In the after
noon he addressed the faculty and in the
evening met the student body in Middle
bury College Gymnasium.
DR.. Pritchett spoke on the theme
Who ought to go to College?
He argued that it was common fall
lacy to believe that every boy or girl
who can by any means get into College
ought to go. The College, he said, was
on the whole the best agency yet de-
vised in civilized society for the training
of youth, but it did not at all follow that
every youth should be pointed college
ward. On the contrary he said there
are many in American Colleges who
would be far better off to find their
/ tuuCdJlOD Ill announcer way.
Is there any criterion, he asked, to
determine who ought to go to College?
The speaker urged that there was one
test which the student could himself ap-
ply, namely he could ask himself, Why do
| go to College If he answers this ques-
tion frankly, clearly, conscientiously he
will pretty surely determine whether he
ought to go to College or not. No
student who could not make clear to
himself the reason for being in College
was ready for College. He urged not
only possible students but their parents
to address themselves to the question
which boy or girl ought to go to College,
not the ordinary question how can we
get all our boys and girls into College?
Such course the speaker thought
would mean fewer failures for students
and vast improvement for the Colleges.
President Pritchett took occasion to
rap the present day method of "root-
ing at College games. He said he had
been ball player himself and urged
that College men ought to free their
games from the continual "barking -
and personal appeals to the players
introduced from the professional games.
There was no excuse, he urged, for
gentlemen to indulge in this practice, it
was irritating to the audience and un-
sportsmanlike in the players
President Pritchett referred only Incl
dentally to the work which brings him
to Vermont, and made plea for an
educational patriotism big enough to
deal with educational questions in Yer
mont from the standpoint of the whole
State rather than from the point of
view of a single educational institution
The lecture was appreciated very
much by the faculty and student body
President Pritchel was formerly Presi-
dent of the Massachusetts Institute of
] Technology He has achieved signal
success with his work for the Carnegie
Foundation making it not only an insti-
tuition for the rewarding of educators
but also a definite force for efficient
education itself.

Y. M. C. A.
Report of r. @. Dyer, Chairman,
Shows the Good Work Done.

In December, 1911, many plans for
the advancement of the work in Addi-
son county were discussed among which
was corn contest. In February, 1912,
it was agreed that a contest be held.
The responsibility of the contest was
placed on Mr.. Moran who was to be
guided in his work by the following
committee: A. w. Eddy, C. H. Wiley,
w. N Cady, and Eugene S. Eddy. In
April Mr.. Moran was taken down with
appendicitis and the responsibility of
the work fell upon the committee who
were all very busy and over loaded
men, also the unfavorable weather re-
suited in poor corn year. AS the
result of these unfortunate circum-
stances the contest although a success
was not as great success as it would
have been otherwise. Seventy boys
enrolled while only twelve boys and ten
men entered the contest in the fall.
The local work, due to the lack of
supervision, Jagged. Mr. Moran re-
covered slowly and was able to do but
little. In November L. A. Morhous
was asked by Mr.. Moran to serve in his
place during the months of winter.
Mr. Moran and Mr.. Morhous worked
together during the month of Decem-
ber. On January Mr.. Moran resigned
and the services of Mr.. Morhous were
secured.
The new county secretary was direct
ed to begin constructive reorganization
throughout the county. There were
two Y. M. C. AS. holding weekly
meetings at that time. These were at
Middlebury and North Ferrisburg.
The North Ferrisburg association,
although since that time its leader has
moved away, has met quite regularly
and has held Bible study class twice a
month. A group of Middlebury college
students under the auspices of the Y.
M. G. A. put on a minstrel show in
North Ferrisburg which was pronounced
exceptional. Different groups of the
association have gone out on skating
anu hunting lilpos
The Middlebury association was about
$50 in debt. The boys of the associa-
tion have raised that money among
themselves and also have raised and
paid basket ball tax of something like
So. They have had hikes, sociabes and
lectures. The willing and kind eager
ness of the ladies of the Woman S
Auxiliary to help the boys has been an
inspiration to the boys and is worthy of
commentator.
The work of Middlebury college stu
dents, especially Mr.. Big and Mr..
Cole in teaching the foreigners of the
village to read, write and speak English
should be mentioned.
On February 9Th Y M. C. A. work
was organized in Bristol. Capable
leaders have been secured Rooms
have been engaged, base ball grounds
hired and active work has began.
The work in Whiting has been reor-
ganized. 1t has progressed through the
Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1913-05-09

neighbors In the fine old Carter home,

landmarks OF the city, known for
many years as the Moody home, locat-
ed at 1927 Concert street. How the
fire originated is likely to remain as
one Of the sad, unsolyed mysteries of
the city. In this frightful blaze Mrs.
Garter lost her life and the occurrence
sent a thrill of sorrow throughout the
entire city. How this painfully re-
gretted accident occurred 10 wrapped
in too many uncertainties to be con-
jectured and is too heartrending to
dwell upon with speculation or
theories.
Supposed Origin.
That Mrs. Carter's clothing caught
on fire and this started the blaze was
the first belief OF her son who arrived
at the house just as the fremen and a
policeman were taking the body from
the bathroom hall. 1t was her custom
after dinner to 60 up stairs and take
her daily bath. While at this, or
about to start, her clothing must have.
ignited either from her stove in her
room, or from the gas radiator in. the
bath room. Frantic with fear and
pain, death must have come quickly.
During ne past few days she had COM
planned Of having dizzy spella and 1t
may have been that one OF hese came
upon her as she stopped over a fire.
She was found outside the bathroom,

and the hair burned off.
