Vermont Academy May Unite in
Athletic Organization.

Bellows Falls of the. principals Of the
Brattlehoro, Bellows Falls and keenc
high schools and Vermont academy to
consider plans for the formation Of an
athletic league by the teams Of the

The general idea is that the teams
should meet in baseball, football and
track events and that rules should be
formulated under which all contestants
must participate and the rules should
be such as to require Students before
becoming members Of school teams. TO
achieve certain standard in scholastic
work.
It is further suggested that officials
OF the games shall be men who arc
absolutely disintercsted. thus obviating
the possibility or even the appearance
Of a s,home" official being intention
ally OF unintenti0nallv responsible fot
victory.
The plan was suggested some time
ago and ull of the officials of the
schools expressed approval and interest
in it with the result that the meeting

SMALLER PAY FOR PAGES?
Opinion Prevails That Legislative En-.
ployes Will Accept Cut in Wages.

MONTPELIER. Dec ). - In view
of the cuustic newspaper criticism dur
ing the past two years OF the rule to
paying pages, messengers. janitors,
sweepers and common laborers at the
state house s. day during legislative
sessions it is believed that the next
batch of minor appointees will not
find as soft jobs and lucrative salaries
as have prevailed in the past.
Until GOV. Allen Fletcher decides
who shall be sergeant-at-arms, by re
appointing Frank 7. Parsons, the pres
ent incumbent, or naming his successor,
no appointments viii be made for POI
sitions at the capital during the com
ing session of the general assembly.
Regarding the pay of pages, boys
from II to Is years OF age, it is be-
lieVed that GOV. Fletcher. under the
authority of an act passed at the last
| Legislature, will not recommend Il fiat
rate of So a day.
| As there are already hundreds Of
| applications on file for the 20 or >
| jobs it is likely that many of the
| youthful patriots will be willing to ac-
eept official appointments at prices
more in keeping with what they can
/ earn. .------z--9.

tured the ribs on one side. the ribs

came TO her aSSlSIa nee. II was at once
seen that the case was Il serious one,
and DR.. Lang took her to the Holyoke
city hospital. In spite of all that could
be done, however, the internal hemor-
rhage persisted, and she died from the
result Of her injuries between and 9
clock last evening.

BORN FIVE WEEKS APART.
Snyder Twins in Good Health i'll Men
dota, Illinois.

MENDOZA, Ill, Dee. 5.-Thought to
be without precedent is the remarkable
case of Mrs. \. NJ. Snyder of Mendoza
who gave birth to children five weeks
and one day apart.
The first baby, five-pound boy,
was born the latter part of October
The second child. born this week,
weighed seven pounds, and is also a
boy. Ordinarily when twins are born
on separate days one or the other dies
soon after birth. In this instance both
infants are in good health and give
promise of surviving.
Surgeons say there is no case on
record which approaches this.
