FIRE IN CORNWALL.

Fire on Saturday morning would have
destroyed the old homestead of Peter
Tulley in Cornwall had 1t not been for
the timely assistance of neighbors who
were summoned by telephone. The
cause Of the fire was the burning out of
chimney which set fire to planks
which encased it. The planks had to be
cut away and also part of the attic floor
so that the fire could be reached and
then by the use of plenty of water the
fire was extinguished. The house was
occupied by Andrew and George Tuley
and their sister, Miss Elizabeth Tulley.
The loss is covered by insurance.

themselves of the privilege of taking
as many books as desired for the use of
pupils and teachers.
This is the fiftieth anniversary of
the founding of the library and it
seems an appropriate time for some
body to do something to benefit the
boys and girls of Middlebury by in
creasing the usefulness of the library.
The most effectual way to do this is to
provide building where one room can
be devoted to the children and another
can be used for reading. Our reading
table is so well patronized that twice
this winter the librarian has been
obliged to say to boys, "There is no
room for you"
