statute. Andthe best way to do

to enforce it so that the people
find out exactly what laws we
have. When a law is not enforced
people never find out,

CLAM BAKE AND
AUTOMOBILE RIDE
Convention of Electrical Association
Ends-Lecture on Electricity at
the Panama Canal

The members Of the Vermont Electrical
association had an especially enjoyable
day yesterday, the last of their two days
convention in Brattleboro After the
business meeting yesterday morning they
went by automobile to the big power plant
at Vernon and nearly an hour was spent
there, the visitors going through the
plant and inspecting it thoroughly The
members of the plant staff were very cour-
teous and explained the various huge
pieces of machinery as they guided parties
of the visitors about the plant Many of
them spent some time in inspecting the
dam and innmerable questions were
asked and answered.
Those who did not know it before
learned that they viewed the largest
hydro-electric plant in New England.
The dam has an average height of 81 feet,
extends across the river a distance of
$50 feet and sets back the water -
miles. In this big power house are eight
units with Il total capacity of 24,000
horsepower, and energy generated there
is extended as far south as Worcester.
From there the trip was over the fa-
nous Schell bridge into the historic town
of Northhed, past the buildings of the
girls seminary and from there through
Hinsdale to Silverdale, Spofford lake,
where Carl Solberg, proprietor of Silver
dale, had remained overtime especially to
provide d sumptuous feast in the form of
a cIambake, that was ready to be opened
when the first cars arrived
The members of the association and
their guests were grouped for d panoramic
picture just before they were seated at
the long tables arranged on the tennis
courts That nothing was lacking and the
food was prepared and served in the best
possible style is saying the least that
could he said of that bake. 1t was delic-
ious and the appetites that had been ere
ated by the automobile trip through the
bracing September air enabled all to do
full Justice to it.
The return trip was made by the direct
route from the lake to Brattleboro.
