BENNINGTON BRIEFS
News OF the Town and Village Told
Briefly for Busy Readers

The strongest chain in the world is
same degree of cohesion form a
chain with which almost every pur-
pose can be accomplished. On Rally
Day, next Sunday, the Methodist,
Baptist and Second Congregational
Sunday schools, with their original
exercises, hope to show the great
value of cooperation among scholars
and teachers in the work of the Sun
day school. Every link of the chain
will represent living helper, for no
one will place link in the chain who
does not believe in the value of Bible
study and teaching, for it will be
made so plain that the work is worth
while that he will actually want to
have hand in it. But a large at
tendance ON that day will be needed,
in order to make the program strong
and effective. Get in line for that
link which is to represent you in the
carry burdens the coming year.
Every Sunday school has its burdens,
and many there be, but the hearty
support of all will make those bur-
dens blessings, the tasks lighter and
the problems easy of solution. The
public is appealed to; parents who
have children in the school are urged
to make it point to be present;
those without children will be just as
welcome; in fact, everyone interest
ed is cordially invited to help make
this occasion the great event of the
season. Won't every, body please

TREAT 1925 FOR HookWoRM
Rockefeller Foundation Reports on
.-tst Years Work.

New York, Sept. 24,-The work of
the. International Health Commits
sion of the Rockefeller Foundation in
fighting the hookworm both in the
southern part of the United States
and in other countries, is made pub
lie in the first annual report of the
foundation, part of which was issued
yesterday in accordance with the de-
cision of the trustees to issue such
statement after the close of each
calendar year.
Up to December 81, 1914, the Inter
national Health Commission had
treated 1925 hookworm sufferers
throughout the world. In addition it
had instituted on educational system
by which many thousands were in
structed in the dangers and means of
fighting the disease. The work has
not been planned to be self-sufficient,
but is intended merely to educate
and cooperate with the people and
their governments until the latter
can carry the campaign on alone,
leaving the commission free to take
up new fields.
At the meeting of the foundation
on June 81, 1913, it was decided to
establish the commission as the best
plan for advancing public health

Has gone to Jesus who sweetly says.
Such is the kingdom of God,
We should not weep for him any more
But trust We are near him still
For be is safe on the other shore.
