NEW CHAPEL FOR COLLEGE
Continued from Page y

giles to secure an education and his
strong desire to see the work of the
college perpetuated, the meaning of the
gift became clearer to ALL
Governor Mead spoke with deep feel
ing of his life while student at Mid
dlebury and of some of his experiences
in the Union army while he was still
enrolled as a member of the Class of
1864 He said that President Thomas
had urged him to state some of the
principles and maxims which had gov
erned his life and by which he had
attained success. These he summarized
under Five Don is, -
l. Don't follow the crowd. Think
for yourself. Get out of the beaten
path. Success in business depends
upon the courage to follow your indie
pendent judgment. Do more than
others. Work harder than any other
man in the shop
2. Don't worry about the smaller
things of life, nor the large ones either.
Fight your hardest and leave the
results with God.
8. Don't use liquor or tobacco. in any
form or in any amount.
4. Don't despair of success in life.
You can accomplish what you wish.
You have nothing in the world 10 be
afraid of but yourselves.
5. Don't be afraid of poverty and
don't be discouraged if you have hard
time to get start. 1t is not the man
who has the most at the beginning who
succeeds best, but the man who is will
ing to work the hardest and who early
learns to overcome obstacles.
At the close of his address Governor
Mead was cheered long and heartily
President Thomas spoke briefly of the
Importance of chapel in the work of
college, and said that in visiting other
colleges and noting their beautiful
chapels he had often longed for one for
Middlebury. He said he hoped it would
be the most commanding object on the
campus, building in harmony with the
other buildings of the college.
Ex-President Brainerd was intro
duced by President Thomas as wise
and considerate friend, always loyal in
his support, and generous and kindly in
counsel. He was received with cheer
and spoke effectively of the value the
new chapel would have for the college
and the place which religious faith
should play in all earnest life. Brief
remarks were also made by Professor
Harrington and Rev. Arthur H. Brad
ford, Governor Mead's pastor in Rut-
land.
In closing the meeting President
Thomas said that the corner stone of
the "Midd. Memorial Chapel" would
be laid at Commencement, and that the
exercises would be one of the features
of Alumni Day, June %.

Hurled from Auto.

Boston, May 10. Two women were
painfully, though not seriously, injured
late yesterday afternoon, when the run
about in which they were driving skid
ded at the intersection of River street
and South avenue, Weston, turned tur-
tie and threw them to the ground.
Mrs. Mable c. Smardon of 220 Grant
avenue, Medford, was the more seriously
hurt. Her right arm was severely
wrenched and she was bruised from
head to foot. Her companion, Miss
George Ingraham, assistant house
keeper at the Hotel Touraine, was
bruised and shaken. Both were taken
to the Newton hospital
The women were coming through
River street into South avenue at fair
rate of speed in car that Mrs. Smardon
had had for only two weeks, and with
which she was not entirely familiar
The curves at the intersection of the
streets was too sharp for the car to ne
gotiate at the speed it was making.
The auto went over with crash that
was heard at the metropolitan park po-
lice station near the Weston bridge, and
officers ran out to see what was the
trouble. They found Mrs. Smardon and
Miss Ingraham sitting by the roadside,
groaning and unable to tell very def
nitely just how the accident had hap
pened-
Mrs. Smardon is the wife of George
Smardon who is engaged in wholesale
business on Summer street.

FRIDAY, MAY az, 1914.

COLONEL ROOSEVELT'S ILLNESS
Real surprise is occasioned by the in
formation that Theodore Roosevelt is
returning to the United States a very i'll
man following his long exploring trip
through countries of South America,
notably Brazil, because of the known
vigor of the man and his capacity to ward
off disease. In the absence of detailed in
formation about the nature of his all
ment it might almost be considered that
the former president was in the exciting
experience briefly heralded some weeks
ago, in which the expedition lost its bag
gage in the rapids of river deep in the
wilderness of Brazil, in spite of the as
surances that he was not with the eX
petition at the time of the accident,
and that the distinguished man sus-
tanned some injuries or contracted some
disease by reason of that trying ex-
perience. Then again, there is the pos
sibility of some jungle disease getting
hold of person even with such vigor-
Gus constitution as Roosevelt possessed
For instance, the fevers that attack the
explorer in those regions are said to be
capable ofwearing down even the strong
est physique, and it is possible that Mr..
Roosevelt fell a victim to such an
ailment through rather foolhardy re-
lance on his strength to stand off the
germs.
But whatever may have been the
cause, the fact that he was able to take
passage for the United States indicates
that his powerful constitution is over
coming the insiduous ravages of the
disease and that he undoubtedly is on
the road to recovery. That his return
to the climate of North America will
hasten that recovery is certain. All
his countrymen rejoice thai he is well
enough to return and all hope for his
prompt recovery. Barre Times.

Killed in Auto Upset.

Oyster Bay, L. l.. May IS. Gabriel
Argomdivva, an Italian labor err, was
instantly killed in an automobile acct
dent at Stehi's corner, Bayville, yes
terday afternoon. The machine was an
auto stage rented by the Arlington
Hotel yesterday to Polish man whose
name is not known. With the driver
were two other Italians and the dead
man.
On the curve near the home of Emil
j. Stehli the machine skidded and
threw shoe. 1t overturned and then
righted itself again. Two Italians were
thrown clear of the car, but the driver
and Argomdivva were caught beneath
it. The driver escaped with a few
bruises, but Argomdivva' neck was
broken.

Heavy Fine for Autoist.

Concord, N. H., May 10. Charged

ing picture house in Suncook, was ar

trict court and fined 500 and costs of
$3.50.

WOULD ARBITRATE CANAL TOLL

Washington, May S.-With the canal
tolls exemption controversy nearing a
vote, sentiment in the Senate is grow
ing in favor of an effort to substitute
for the pending bill resolution which
would provide for the submission of the
dispute between the United States and
Great Britain to an international trib-
unal.
1t was said tonight, however, that
Senator O'Gorman, leader of the forces
fighting repeal, will not consent to ar
bitration and the proposal undoubtedly
will meet with vigorous opposition
among other senators.
During the day three senators, two
republicans and one democrat, added
their voices to those who see in arbitra-
ton the best way out of the difficulty.
Senator Sutherland made a vigorous
speech on the exemption repeal bill, as
sorting that arbitration was the one
way to settle the dispute.
Senator Williams announced that he
would gladly vote for arbitration and
Senator Works agreed that this plan
was desirable,
On the Republican side today it de-
veloped that Senators Root and Lodge,
as well as others who are prominent
in the fight for repeal, would favor
arbitration.
Democratic leaders, who expected a
vote on the repeal bill next Monday.
discovered today that the chance for
this hope being realized was growing
slim. Senator Jones gave notice to-
day of his intention to speak on the
repeal bill on that day and it was
understood that other senators might
not decide to speak before Monday.
In the House today Representative
Henry of Texas explained the atti-
tude of Secretary Bryan on the free
tolls plank of the Baltimore platform.

WORLDS GREATEST LINER.

The latest word in seagoing passen.
ger ships is now on her maiden trip
across the Atlantic. She is $4,000
tons burden. She is $50 feet long and
100 feet wide. She can if she wishes
plough through the water at a speed
of 1868 knots per hour, enabling her
to carry that huge bulk and nearly
1000 passengers from Hamburg to
New York-4400 miles-in seven days.
She is out to do it in less than that if
she can and prove herself the fastest
as well as the biggest ship afoat.
Her builders tell of all her huge d.
mansions, of the precautions taken to
insure her coming safely through all
possible hazards of the sea, of the
800 seats in the main dining saloon.
Figures are cited as to the amount of
supplies that she must carry on every
voyage-50,O 900 pounds of fresh meat,
$50 eggs, 81, 200 pounds of vegeta-
bles, 10000 pounds of potatoes, 1000
quarts of milk. and so forth. And

In short, the Vaterland is a floating
hotel. Aboard of her one can if he
wishes escape virtually every reminder
that he is at sea. If he wishes he may
be carried across the ocean with no
more thought, with no more atmos-
phere of the sea, than would come to
him in Pullman car or a subway train.
Such conditions are the result of an
ever-increasing demand of the travel
ing public. The big ship is the ship
that pays. All the lines are building
them-almost every year sees a new
and biggest ever" launched. Every
one is crowded to its capacity, and the
life of the earlier and the smaller ship,
however staunch she be, grows steadily
shorter.
For those who must travel swiftly
from port to port no matter how far,
who must have luxury and who dread
the sea, these huge floating palaces
have already become necessitie Phil

FOREST FIRES HARMFUL.

A defini e relation between the
amount of humus, or vegetable matter
in the soil, and its crop-producing power
as shown by yields of corn, is given in
figures just issued by the department of
agriculture.
Experts of the forest service state
that the soils of the whole country, and
particularly of the South, have lost and
are losing immense amounts of this
source of soil fertility through forest
fires which apparently do little imme-
date damage but rob the soil of ac-
cumulations of humus.
In many parts of the South, land is
being cleared for farming, and where
such forest land has not been burned
there is large percentage of vegeta-
table matter, which provides consider
able fertility and good textur. More
over this soil has greater capacity to
absorb and retain moisture, and thus is
less likely to be washed and quilted
under heavy rains.
For these reasons, leaving out of &C
count the damage to standing timber,
the department authorities are agreed
that fire should be rigidly kept out of
woodlands.
Striking facts regarding forest re-
sources, their value and their waste,
are condensed in an eight-page illustra-
trated circular of the American For
estry Association just issued. The
lumber industry is said to employ 1885,
900 people, to whom are paid annually
1867, 900, 900 in wages, the worth of
products being $l,25O, OOO,O 900. The
forests of the country cover $50, 900, 900
acres.
An average of 70 human lives are
sacrificed annually in forest fires, says
the circular, and loss occurs of $685.
100000. Damage from insects and tree
diseases, which follow fire, costs each
year $50, 900, 600.
The cost of destruction resulting from
floods is not estimated, but is given as
countless millions"
But the circular expresses hope
more than pessmism. AS well as the
colored pictured showing, the forest
fires, the effect of the fire, and the
damage caused by floods, it shows also
forests planted and grown under in
tensive management, and the national
forest ranger scouting for fires on the
mountain lookout station.
The effective patrol referred to has
reduced forest fire losses to as low as
one-tenth of one cent an acre"
1t is pointed out that by planting
forests an annual income could be de-
rived in the country of sos, 900, 900 and
by preseryative treatment upon timber
each year 500, ZOO, 900 could be saved.
