MlDDLEBURY HEARING
CONTINUED from Page -

only six and one-half per cent are resi-
dents of the town, or thirteen per cent
of the Vermont students. Why was
not inquiry made to ascertain facts
accurately?
at is also misleading to say that the
cost of each Vermont student is S1S4.
Students from outside Vermont may
render Just as much service to the
State as those who come from our own
towns Many of them stay here, as
teachers and workers in other spheres,
and become loyal Vermonters. | my
self came to Mddlebury as a student
from New York and am none the less
loyal Vermonter. 1t is not where the
student comes from, but where he
leaves his heart.
Neither is it true that Middlebury
is classical college. We have twenty
six students studying Greek, but forty
four are studying Domestic Science.
We have one hundred and nine students
studying Latin, but two hundred and
thirty-five are studying English.
1.-The people of Vermont will be back
of this legislature in a vindication of
Middlebury College. Do not leave us
where we were. Enable us to continue
the substantial progress we have been
making. pledge you that our little
college will nobly serve the State for

One of my secrets of success in rails
ing turkeys is keeping the droppings
bright green color by feeding plenty
of lettuce and other green stuff, which
keep their livers in good working con
dition.
After the pouts get old enough TO
let out of the run | give them their
liberty for three or four hours ut a
time. They are then tired and want
to be yarded.
| find it better not to feed heavily ut
night. so as to give plenty of time to
have everything digested by morning.
They then come to their morning meal
with a good appetite.
A large proportion Of the young tur-
keys that die are overfed with too
much concentrated food and do not get
enough green food and milk to take
the place Of insects and unlimited
green food that are found when they
are running wild.
We should remember that the turkey
is very delicate bird. Its ailments
seem to lodge in the bowels and liver.

Famous Piece of Artillery Is Ancient
Mons Meq.


Mons Meg.
In the most honorable location in the
Argyll battery of Edinburgh castle is a
huge piece of ancient artillery which is
known as Mons Meg. This old fash
loned piece of ordnance is held in the
highest esteem by the Scottish people
In fact, it holds position in their
hearts similar to our feelings toward
Dur own Liberty bell.
Mons Meg was made at Mons, Bel
GUM, about the year 1903, by order of
James ", and was named Meg in
honor of his wife, Margaret Tudor, the
daughter Of Henry VII. Its great bulk
and weight rendered it almost worth
less in those days of hand to hand con
hicts. However, it was used on special
occasions to help celebrate national
events. In the reports of the financial
transactions of the times NAV be
found charges for grease for Meg's

her carriage and pipes to be played

The news that Mr. Simeon Murch of
Boston, Mass, had been secured as
permanent baseball coach at Middle
bury was received with a storm of APP
plause by the men of the college at
meeting of the Middlebury Union in the
Gymnasium last evening. Mr. Murch
was formerly a regular with the Brook
Ign Nationals, and for the past two
seasons has coached the Middlebury
team with marked success, last season
losing only two games. He has given
considerable attention to developing a
strong second team, as well, and this
has brought out an unusually keen in
terest in baseball throughout the stu
dent body. Besides knowing baseball,
Mr.. Murch possesses the ability of
teaching it TO others. and with his
thorough acquaintance with the ma
terial at hand, a winning team may be
expected this year
At the meeting last evening, Pro-
fessor Wetherell, chairman of the
Faculty Committee on Athletics, out
lined the developments in the negotia-
tons which have been in progress for
several months to secure Mr. Murch S
return. Several obstacles have been
encountered, and Professor Wetherell
said that credit was due Mr.. Joseph
Peck, of the class of 1898, who had
served Loyalty for several years on the
athletic council, for persisting in spite
of the difficulties.
Mr.. Murch's position is to be per-
ment one, and he will reside in Middle
bury A considerable fund was raised
for the purpose by subscription from
students, faculty and townspeople
through the effort of the Waubanakees,
the senior honorary society. A strong
schedule has been arranged for the
season, beginning April % with a game
with New York University.

THE NINETY AND NINE.

Ninety nine out-of-town, tuition
pupils are in attendance upon the Mid
dlebury High school. A large part of
them come to town Monday morning,
board or board themselves in homes in
the village, and return to their homes
Friday afternoon. They are mostly
boys and girls from thirteen to eighteen
years of age, the successful pupils of
the rural schools, far and away the
most valuable product of Addison
County farms. They are bright, eager
young people, well disposed and
ambitious, appreciative of the sacrifices
their parents are making, and in earnest
to make the most of their oppor-
tunities.
What does Middlebury do for them?
We provide an excellent school, with a
capable principal and corps of teachers
That takes care of them from nine in
the morning until four in the afternoon.
What then? There is the Public Library,
with pleasant rooms and hospitable at
for these boys and girls. There are the
moving pictures, which educate some,
entertain more, and perhaps tempt to a
waste of time and money. There is an
occasional church sociable, and prayer
meeting Thursday night. What then?
What for tn boy or girl who does not
care for the Library and has no money
to go to the movies? The teachers have
work enough in the regular hours and
outside duties, and their sponsibilites
are supposed to end when the pupil
reaches home or boarding place. Prepar-
alton of lessons takes up good deal of
time, but boy can not work all the
time. and not every girl will. What
then?
Here is great problem, which con-
fronts Middlebury more seriously than
some other villages in Vermont, be-
