five years ago when he moved to St.
Johnsbury. He was employed by o.
v. Hooker q Son and later by the

year ago last July when he was forced
by illness to give up his work. He was
able to go about until about two
weeks ago and from that time was
confined to his bed until his death
which occurred Saturday morning
from Bright's disease.
Funeral services were held Monday
afternoon at one O'Clock at the Rail-
road street Baptist church with Rev.
F. S. Tolman officiating. A profusion
of flowers and a large attendance of
friends and relatives spoke volumes
for the popularity of the young man.
Among those present from out of town
were: Eli B. Hart of Lowell, Mass,
Mrs. G. w Thurston of Greenfield,
Mass, Mr.. and Mrs. Harvey, Whipple
of Orleans, Mr. and Mrs. n. A. Smith
of Glover, G.. f. Garfield of Craftsbury,
and Raymond Roberts of NeWbury.
Burial was in the family lot at Wal
den and four young friends Raymond
Walker, Ralph Santolucito, Harold
Tillotson and Carroll Jenness were the
bearers. Besides his father and moth
er he leaves four brothers, Stanley,
Ethan, Gordon and Franklin, and one
sister. Lillian. (Orleans County pa

escape then, as she did Monday eve
Three and a half miles north of Wat
erbury she appeared at midnight at
the home of Don Barney, a fireman at
the hospital. Mrs Barney and the
children were alone in the house, and
Mrs. Barney would not admit the wO-
man. Upon Mr.. Barney's return 10
minutes later the hospital authorities
were notified of the Woman'S where
abouts, but no trace of her could be
found. At 4:30 Saturday morning she
arrived at the home of Jesse Young, a
mile north of the Barney home. where
she was given shoes and stockings, she
meanwhile having wrapped about her
a spread taken from a clothes line.
In a covered bridge near the Young
house despite the fact that searchers
from the hospital were securing the
territory for her, she remained all day
Saturday on some timbers placed
across beams at the top of the bridge.
At three o'clock Sunday morning some
one was heard on the veranda of the
Young home by the son, Roy, confined
to his bed by an injured foot, being I'M
able to move. Fearing that if he
called she would be frightened away
he remained quiet. Mems clothing
was missing from the barn when an
investigation was made.
A few hours later smoke was seen
coming from the chimney of the Hay
den district schoolhouse, where the
patient was finally caught, dressed in
a mans suit before the fire.

COMMERCIAL CLUB NOTES
IN Industrial Survey To BE Under
4oIran-O tI,aV Activities


The Commercial Club is slowly but
steadily forging to the front. 1t IS
now conducting through it's commit
tees several lines of activities; the ac-
complishment of which will put st
Johnsbury a long step forward along
civ;,; end industrial lines.
A few things now fully or partly ac-
complished are: first, the charities
endorsement plan which was SO ea ger.
ly adopted by the merchants; second.
the conducting of an industrial survey
in order that the natural and artificial
advantages of st. Johnsbury may be
known and utilized. Other problems
under consideration are: The in
struction of local history in our pub
lie schools; the advisability of improv-
ing our local charter; and lastly the
possibility Of interesting some indus
try that will employ female labor.
More problems affecting community
welfare will, no doubt, arise later on.
which the Club will have to consider
and attempt to rectify. The one thing
however, that the Club fears most is
that its plans may fail through lack of
interest and cooperation on the part
of non-members. If the people will
take an active interest in club acuI
ties and give them hearty co-opeca-
ton, then nothing can prevent st
Johnsbury from progressing stea lilly
along eric end in. dustrial lines.

ject of her talk was Women in the
Community" She spoke of the need
of the banding together of the women
of the community to cooperate with
the schools for the benefit of the boys
and girls; to be influential in securing
sanitation in the stores, schools and
streets; to promote the adoption of a
cleanup day in the fall as we'll as
spring; and to work with the visiting
nurse. In these and many other ways
woman, whether she has the vote or
not, makes the community bigger,
better and wiser for her interest in it.

GOOD BUSINESS AT HOOKER'S
Opportunity for More Skilled Labor
In St. JOhnShurY

The workmen are just finishing the
installation of 800 horsepower water
wheel at the electric plant of o. v.
Hooker and Son, this wheel taking
the place of an old wheel of IS horse
power.
In the machine shops the men are
working IL hours each day and are
unable to keep up with the orders.
They would be glad to increase their
force but have difficulty in finding men
properly trained for their line Of
work.
Inquiry was also made at The Ely
hoe and fork factory and it was re-
ported they were doing about the nor
NAL amount of business for this time
of year. So with the activity at the
scale shops reported last week and at
these two factories there is a prospect
that anyone wanting to work can get
the opportunity in st. Johnsbury.
