Extension School

The University of Vermont, College oil
Agriculture, Extension School to be held
in Morrisville the last week of February
seems to be assured, as nearly the re-
CURED number of farmers have promised
to attend. 1t is hoped that many other
farmers will decide to take advantage of
this school, The schools thus far held in
the different parts of the state have been
very successful, both in. number
and in interest. 1t is evidently
something new, not an institute but a
school, conducted in a practical way
that appeals to the farmer, combining
lectures, demonstrations and discussions.
The farmers wives are also welcomed at
these meetings. Let us make the Norris
vile extension school the largest one
held in Vermont. Lamoille County with
its progressive farmers should stand Sec
ond to none. In order that the public

studied at these extension schools, the

with what she eats; How to know soil
needs; Composition and properties of
milk: Mixing and balancing rations;
Principles of land drainage; The Babcock

An Extraordinary TRAGEDY

An extraordinary tragedy of super.
stition is reported from Burdwan,
where a man named Vahamidan muir.
dered his wife with her own consent
in the course of a secret ceremonial.
Vahamidan had for some time been
learning the principles of Tantric wor-
ship from a monk To complete his
studies he needed a dead body, and
on his assurance that he would re-
store her to life when he had finished
his worship, the wife consented to be
killed. The man is now in the hands
of the police.

La spite of the inclement weather there
was large congregation at the Sunday

the theme THE Fire Alarm" drawing
lessons from the life of the fireman.
The Christian Endeavor service under
the leadership of the L ookout commit

founding of Christian Endeavor. The
history of the movement and the story 70
Its progress were presented by different
members. Christian Endeavor has five
million members in about 100000 socie-
ties and has been adopted by about 80
denominations. It's influence has been
felt in every contin emf in the world.
The Union service was very largely
attended and all listened attentively to
the splendid address of Chief Justice
George M. Powers on "The Church and
the Law" The message was scholarly,
but presented in such form that all could
understand and enjoy. The speaker
showed very clearly the place which the
church held in the esteem of those who
formulated the constitution, and the re-
lations which then existed between the
state and the church. Tracing the evo-
luton of that relationship to the present
and pointing out as fitting climax that
as the church is broadening out in her
views of God and man, SO the law,
touched by the growing spirit of humani-
tarianism, is seeking today to reform
rather than simply punish the criminal.

How the Children Graded.

An experiment carried on recently
with school children to determine how
the foreign born compared with the
native born shows how marked in eff
feet the environment in this country
has on immigrants. 1t was found that
the children with the lowest standing
in school were foreign born. The next
lowest we're those born of foreign-born
parents; the next after them we're of
parents born in this country, and the
highest were those whose grandpar-
ents or great-grandparents were born
here.
