ard in her 82nd year removes from our
community one of the older residents.
She had always lived in Addison county,
during her early years in Bridport and
later in Weybridge and for the last
seventeen years in this town. She was
domestic in her tastes, looking well to
the ways of her household and taking
great pleasure in her home. She bore
the vicissitudes of her life with calm
ness and fortitude. She was never OBJ
t~rusive, but her quiet strength of char
acter won for her a large circle of
friends in her own generation and many
of those younger. than herself mourn

FUNERAL OF MICHAEL MACK.

The funeral of Michael Mack of Shell
burne, who was found dead in bed
from asphyxiation in the Elmwood
house in Burlington, was held in St.
Mary's Catholic church Saturday norm
ing at 9:45 O'Clock. Rev. FIR. T. j.
Leonard. pastor of the church, cele-
brated..a requiem high mass. The
funeral was largely attended by his
many friends from this and surrounding
towns, as Mr.. Mack had been a resi-
dent of this vicinity for many years
and was held in high regard by all.

the gas to escape, as no other cause al
be assigned for his death. Mr.. Mack
had been in Burlington looking over
some farm properties and decided to re-
main over night. The burial took place
in the Catholic cemetery in this village.
The bearers were Thad M. Chapman,

S AVIN S
B A NIX RID
BREAKER FOR
VERMONT

We have before spoken in these COL
umns Of the fact that Vermont enjoy
ed the unique distinction Of having at
Hyde Park the largest Savings Bank in
in the world in a country village.
Now comes Bank Commissioner
Williams with another point of Yer
mont Savings Banks superiority.
He says that our state ST nds at the
head Of all the states in the Union in
the amount of deposits in Savings
Banks, per capita of population.
What Goes this mean, and why this
preference shown to Vermont banks in
general and to the Hyde Park Bank in
particular ?
There can be but one answer, and
that is, that the people Of Vermont
have come to believe that there is no
place in the world SO safe to place
their little savings, against a rainy day,
as in a carefully conducted, well man
aged Vermont Savings Bank.
Practically five out of every eight
people in Vermont, counting every
man, woman and child, is a savings
Bank depositor.
Some fellow has tried to poke fun at
Vermont by saying that "she has six
months of winter and three months OF
late in the fall"
So long as we can maintain our sup
eroriiy in matters of thrift, we can
quietly smile while they poke fun at us.
The wise ones among these shouters
know a good thing when they see il
and when they want the safest of all
places in which to place their money,
they come to a Vermont Savings Bank.
The books of the Hyde Park Bank
show that it is the recipient of deposits
from every state in the Union.
Alaska, the Philippine Islands, the
Republics Of Panama and Cuba, China,
India, Turkey, and the Canadian
provinces from Quebec on the east to
Saskatchewan on the west also con-
tribute by their deposits to make Hyde
Park Bank the largest bank in the
world in a country village.
One thing that prompts the deposits
from these far off countries is the fact
that it is now absolutely safe to send
money to the Hyde Park Bank either
by check, postal or express money or
der, or by registered letter.
Not a dollar sem to the Hyde Park
Bank by mail since it was organized in
1880 has ever been lost.
"Safety first, safety last and safety
all the time" has always been the mot
to of the Hyde Park Bank and its book;
are always open to the most c%ritica.
investigation by any depositor.
1t does not own today, so far as the
closest scrutiny can determine, a single
dollar of poor assets.
The Hyde Park Bank pays 4 pei
cent, compounded s~emi-annually, anc
pays all taxes.
Full information upon any point con.
nected either with the Banks assets o.
its. management will be cheerfully furn.
ished to anyone addressing its Presi'
dent, Carroll S. Page or its Treasurer
