ORGAN AND SONG
RECITAL ENJOYED
Professor French and Miss Butterfeld
Gave Delightful Program in
Baptist Church.

The organ and song recital in the
Baptist church last evening was great
delight to every one present. Prof. Al
bert F. French, the organist, was in
trOduced by Rev. Mr.. Tom kinson as Il
business man in Lowell, whose hobby
is the pipe organ. A diverse and we'll
chosen program served to display the
resources Of the organ as well as the
ability of the organist Mr.. French was
very gracious and responded to encores
very willingly. He would have done so
at the close of the program, but the
motor refused to respond, because Of
the burning out of fuse.
Miss Alice Dacre Butterfeld was re-
ceived enthusiastically and her program
was very attractive throughout. Her
gracious manner, her introduction of
each group of songs by some interest
ing and Illuminating fact concerning
the author, as well as her delightful
vocalization conveyed to her audience
an ever recurring satisfaction in the
great success of another Of Brattle
boro's gifted daughters.
The program was one of rarely
choice selections, not pretentious, but
such as everyone thoroughly enjoys, ano
all of them modern and to nearly every
one entirely new. Miss Butterfeld sans

joyment of her audience. Miss lzetts

The MeddLer
"If the coat fits you, pat It on"

The hearing which is to take place
before the listers tomorrow morning
on the question of local real estate val
uatiOns is bound to he an extremely in
teresting session. The standpattcrs-
those who oppose the increases made by
the listers in their quadrennial apprais-
al-have been active in their campaign
against the revised figures and have
succeeded in getting a large number of
slgners to their petition. These signers
represent a large amount of real esta te
and doubtless are absolutely sincere in
their belief that valuations have been
increased without warrant. Whether
! their belief is as correct as it is sincere
| depends on numerous circumstances.
| For one thing. it should be remembered
| that real estate valuations in Brattle
boro have lacked uniformity. and il
making the new figures the listers have
no doubt had this in mind. Hence. the
amount of increase to which any one
/ piece of property has been ubiected !,
OF small Importance compared with the
relative fairness of the figures as they
now stand. 1t is probably true that il
some instances the listers have set val
uations too high, for their Judgment i.
not infallible. but in other cases il j.
not at all unlikely that the increases
leave the property assessed fully a,
low if not lower than the average rat,
of valuation. The fairness Of any in
crease depends altogether on what the
figures were before. On the whole, TIL,
Meddler believes the agitation aeains
the new valuations an unwise move
because it is just such controversial
that are likely to result in the appear
anee of outside authorities to settle thu
- dispute, and no one needs to be inform

great many people in town who have
come to the conclusion that continue

by a thorough reorganization of the
