| Mrs. w. i. Reed OF Concord has been
in the st. Johnsbury hospital for an
X-ray examination since she broke of
needle in her knee.
War supplies Of various kinds pass
through St Johnsbury frequently. Last
week Monday whole trainload of rice
passed through there, northbound,
drawn by two big engines; the same
day two trainloads of horses, filling 1866
cars. passed through southbound, for a
seaport, from which they might be
shipped to England About the same
time a train loaded with nothing but
rope passed through the place.
The members of the church and con-
gregation of Grace Methodist church Of
st. Johnsbury, destroyed not long ago
by fire, have decided that it will be
possible to raise at least $4,000 toward
the rebuilding of the edifce, including
the amount Of insurance received. The
ladies' aid society has pledged itself to
raise $1,000 and the Grace Unity club
a like amount. 1t is probable that the
old site will be used.
Miss Emma Ruth Lothrop, former
resident of st. Johnsbury, was seriously
injured recently in Hanover, N. H., when
she stepped through hole in the floor
of the public library, where she is en-
ployed, and fell 20 feet to cement floor
below. Workmen were putting in a
book elevator, but Miss Lothrop did not
know hole had been cut through the
floor, when she stepped into it. Her
condition has been serious, and, although
no bones were broken, she has symptoms
of injury to her spine.
The death Of Peter Barr Laird in
West Barnet, Jan. 20, removed man
whose life was filled with events of
more than usual Importance. He was
born in Barnet, Jan. IL, 1888. In 1850
he was one of company of adventur-
GUS young men who went to the newly
discovered gold fields OF California.
Founder and manager of the st. Johns
bury Granite company, he later as
sumed management of the New York
Offices and in 1883 retired from the
business and was made superintendent of
Forest park, Brooklyn. During Pres
ident Harrison's first administration he
was appointed inspector Of immigra-
ton in the treasury department at New
York City and remained there until
President Mckinley, whose personal
friendship Mr.. Laird was honored to en-
joy, appointed him commissioner of i'm
migration for Canada in the year 1897, !
with headquarters at Halifax and Que
bee. He remained in the q. S. service |
in Canada until 1900 when he retired to
West Barnet and built the house near
lake, in which he died.

the busy business section to the
residence district and from 9th
street north is assuming an air
of business and traffic as is no
other outlying street. This stree,
always will be the main artery
down which the north end and
west end traffic will reach the
busy shopping district, and, to
my mind, should be Incorporated

WHAT ABOUT THIS?

f1ottOT IttutSs
l would like to call the atten-
ton Of your readers to the fact
that there are books In Tacoma
library that should not be there,
much less read by our boys and
girls. Students go direct from
school to the library and select
books, the contents of which de-
pict tragedy in its most hideous
farm. Such books have no moral,
only incentive to the young minds
to try and do likewise. ] knew
a boy of IA years of age, a bright
manly fellow who took his own
life. He had a good home, kind
parents and everything to make
him happy. But when his mother
looked into his trunk she saw at
once the cause of 1t all, for there,
all topsy turvy, were more than a
dozen blood and thunder books,
pages we'll worn showing that
they had been read and read. A
book that caused one boy sleep
less night is entitled, The Scouts
of the Valley" by Joseph Alt
sheler.
II you don't wish to waste time
by reading the book through just
commence on page LOG and read
to page 14s inclusive, and the
lesson will be that such literature
In the hands of our boys and girls
Is far more pernicious than bad
company.

Editor. Tacoma Times:

As there seems to be consider
able discussion relative to the
change In the names of c street
and st. Helens avenue to that
Of Broadway, l would like to say
Z few words through your col
umns.
c street has come to be tdur-
Ing the past year particularly
the acknowledged shopping and
retail thoroughfare of the city,
and In that particular it is to
Tacoma land rapidly becoming
more sol what that great thor
oughfare and metropolitan street,
known as Broadway" is to New
York city.
The name Broadway" IL
known around the globe and Is
recognized the world over as
Americas greatest and busiest
avenue OF industry. 1t is sug-
gestive of big things and causes
the mind to at once revert to than
wonderful street bearing this
name, In the midst of the surging
masses of busy people in that one
city that is to all Americans the
greatest city in the world. Such
name attached to Tacoma's
main business artery could not
help but have a healthy influence
ON her citizens and urge them on
to correspondingly great things
for this fair city of ours.
To my mind, IL this city aspires
to larger things and bigger
place among the cities of the Pa
ciflc coast, her citizens should
think "big thoughts commercially
rather than think sentimental
