A SAVINGS BANK MILESTONE

January 31st. 1890 years ago
the Lamoile County Savings Bank and
Trust Company was organized.
To say that in matter of growth this
institution has out-run everything
everywhere in the line of village say.
ings banks is to state truth which
Vermonters everywhere are pleased to
to talk about.
One of the large banks OF Toronto,
Ontario, has recently written one of
the officials of the Hyde Park bank
expressing its curiosity to know chow
the thing was done" Indeed, bankers
not only In Vermont and Ontario but
elsewhere have been simply amazed at
the growth of this bank. They can't
see how it were possible for, a little
country village with population of
only 423 TO show a Egrowth that has
placed the bank so far ahead of all
competitors occupying similar posi-
ton as to make it unique, unpre-
cedented and notable as the largest
bank in the world in a country village.
The answer is simple and-one word
tells the story that word is CONFI-
DENCE.
The people not only of Hyde Park
and Lamoille County but of Vermont
generally, from Massachusetts, to Can
ada line, from the Connecticut River
to Lake Champlain, have come to talk

Hyde Park Bank and we're you to ask
Vermonters why they made their de-
posts in the Hyde Park Bank instead
of elsewhere, they would tell you sub
stantially this We know the men who
manage that bank we know they are
painstaking, cautious and conservative ;
we know that the allurements of all
those get-rich-quick schemes which so
often tempt men to sacrifice safety to
principal for high rates of interest,
have never captivated the managers of
the Hyde Park Bank.
Money is timid and easily scared !;
it is notorious that upon the slightest
provocation it goes into hiding, but
once let the public be assured that
everything about Bank is perfectly
safe and they pour their savings into it
without stint.
1t is perfectly safe to send money to
this Bank, either by personal or bank
check, registered letter or postal or
express money order.
In its more than twenty-six years of
existence not a penny sent to it by
mail was ever lost.
The Hyde Park Bank pays the taxes
on all deposits, large or small.
If you wish to know as to the assets,
liabilities, surplus, ETC., of this Bank,
all you have to do is to write the Presi-
dent Carroll S. Page, or the Treasurer,
F. M. Culver, Hyde Park, VT, and you
will get a prompt reply.-News and

OBITUARY..

Edrick Spaulding died at his home in
Bridport January Goth, 1915, after a
lingering illness with arterio sclerosis.
The funeral services were held at the
house Sunday, January 3lst. at II
o'clock, Rev. G. Evans officiating. TIL.
bearers were Jason Spaulding, Somers
Spaulding, William Wheeler and Fred
Spaulding. Appropriate and effective
music was rendered by the choir.
Beautiful flowers adorned the casket,
silently attesting the esteem in which
he was held by friends and neighbors,
one piece deserving special mention was
a wreath for Grandpa, the gift of
his step granddaughter, Miss Marjorie
Allen, upon whom he lavished sincere
affection. Mr.. Spaulding was born in
Potsdam, N. Y, April 8th, 1888, but
the greater portion of his life was spent
in Addison, Vt, where he was elected
to fill many offices of trust. A few
years previous to hi death he moved
with his family, consisting of wife and
two daughters to the Orrin Pratt farm
in Bridport, which he purchased and
there resided until his decease. His
first wife was Linda Pratt, daughter of
Orrin Pratt, whom he married Novem-
Der Goth, 1861. She died March &c, 1898.
HIS second wife was a sister, Janet
Pratt, widow of the late William Allen,
who gave him kind and constant atten-
ton until the last. He was a kind and
indulgent husband and father with
strict adherence and devotion to family
ties and love of home, having in mind
the comfort and welfare of all with
whom he was associated Possessing
model principles of integrity in business,
an exceedingly kind neighbor and a
friend to all, he will be greatly missed
by wide circle of friends and ac-
quaintances. Many can testify to kind
ness received from his hands in time of
trouble. He was firm believer in the
Christian precept Love thy neighbor
as myself" Throughout his trying i'll
ness he manifested great patience and
fOrtitude and until short time before
his death greeted his friends with
smile and pleasant word. He is sur
vived by his wife and one daughter,
Mrs. George Conn of Bridport; one sis
ter, Mrs. William Wheeler, and two
brothers. Somers L., of Cornwall and
Jason NJ, of Bridport, Vermont.

Northwest Livestock Show
Has Excellent Prospects

All conditions indicate that the An
nual Northwest Livestock show at
Lewiston. the week of November 90
December I, will be the greatest in the
history of that institution. This opin-
ion is based upon reports received by
the officers of the Northwest Live
stock association under whose auspices
the show is held. These reports are to
the effect that larger number of ami
mails will be on display than has been
the case in the past, while the quality
also promises to establish a new stan
dard. Exhibits are coming from all
the principal sections of the four north
west states. Tne magnitude of the
show, which is now in its seventh year,
can be judged by the fact that at some
of the past exhibitions over 5000 ami
mails were on display. Reports made by
ceived, leave no doubt that the at
tendance of people will far surpass that
of any previous show.
While the Northwest Livestock asso.
citation comprises the leading stockmen
of the four northwest states and who
unselfishly give their time and means
to the development of the show, they
are receiving hearty cooperation on
the part Of agricultural colleges and
universities and the presidents of sever.
al such institutions will be on the
speaking program this year. Governors
Alexander of Idaho, and Lister of
Washington will also give their pres
ence to the program, Governor Alexan'

Lewiston, these being served by spe.

nual event The sales feature of the
show is again to be prominent this
year, with high grade stock in all lines
to be offered. Secretary Smith of the
Northwest Livestock association has
given close attention to the important
work assigned him and has been in the
field practically every day for the past
three months, arranging the details Of
the big exhibition.

ed in the union employees walking out
last night few minutes before the ev-

The show, musical production, was

The trouble arose over the dismissal
of an engineer in October when the
theatre connected with an outside heat

contended that the engineer was not
Leeded. The unions insisted that he
should have been retained.
The strikers included stage hands,
