DESPERATE BREAK FAILS
lngenously Fashioned Scaling Ladder
Added to Rutland Collection

Rutland. Jan. 31.-Michael Billo,
one of the most desperate prisoners
at the Rutland county Jail attempted
late yesterday TO escape from the
house of correction, in which the jail
is located by means of a rope ladder
which he had made from various ar
ticles he could conceal about his per-
son. His break for liberty was dis
covered before he had gotten out OF
the prison yard, which is surrounded
by a wall IA feet high, and he was
caught Immediately. Billo is held in
default of $4,000 bail for attempting
to stab Fred c Sheldon, a well-known
PawIet marble man on December IL,
1912.
Billo showed great ingenuity in
fashioning a scaling ladder and the
product of his handicraft will be add
ed to a large collection of such things
which Superintendent d. l.. Morgan
has.
The officials have no trace of Char
les Marsdon, a trusty, who escaped
early in the week. Marsdon is the
man who was sentenced about five
years ago for assaulting school
teacher on the street in Middlebury.
She bit one of his hands and the
wound led to his arrest. His SEN
tence would have expired April %,

THE cHILD's READING
Practical and interesting Talk by
Miss Alice Blanchard

! Miss Alice A. Blanchard of Montpe
lier. who represents the Vermont
Board of Library Commissioners
gave an interesting talk on Child
rens Books" before the teachers and
members of the teacher training class
in the high school room Tuesday af-
ternoon.
Miss Blanchard who is a ready and
entertaining speaker, took the sub
ject from the standpoint of the rela-
ton of the library to the present day
school question, and gave an outline
of the work done by the commission
along this line. Briefly, she stated
the functions and aims of the board
to be, to furnish material aid by gifts
of books for establishing libraries and
by loaning travelling Libraries to
schools, in rural DISTRICTS to give ad-
vice and instruction in anything re-
lating to library management, to CO.
operate with schools and to furnish
inspiration by holding meetings, eth
er public or Of librarians and trus-
tees.
She gave some practical sugges-
tons as to the use that may be made
Of the circulating Libraries in the ru-
raj schools, and the influence the
teacher may have on the reading of
the children The Libraries may be
had by sending an application to the
commission and may be kept for as
long a period as desired. She en-
phasized the good effect the reading
of books wisely chosen may have on
help he receives in his studies from
the reading.
Miss Blanchard pointed out the OPP
portunity the teacher has to supervise
the child's reading, which is even
greater than the parents or the IL
brarians, as the teacher comes in
daily contact with the child and has
more time to give to this phase of
his education. The parent is apt to
shirk his responsibility and the libra
rian has too great a number of child
rem to deal with to give each person
al attention.
Miss Blanchard did much to arouse
interest in the subject and gave a
very good idea of the splendid work
the commission is doing for education
in Vermont.
Supt. A. w. Varney introduced the
speaker and spoke few words in
commentator of the work

treasurers who have preceded him in

Deadly Venom of the Cobra.

A full sized cobra is able to eject

The Indian cobra yields as much as
