News and Views from this
Hustling Village
Public Places Closed Again.

Health Officer Prime of Barton was
in town last evening and this morning
accompanied by DR.. H. A. Laid of
Burlington, Inspector for the state
board of health, and in accordance
with an order from the secretary of the
state board, DR.. G.. F. Dalton, closed
all public places until further notice
in order to stamp out completely the
epidemic of smallpox. The act is
more one of a preventive measure than
because of any great spread of the
disease, as the Monitor understands it
is now confined to two families. But
every measure of precaution is to be
taken to entirely blot out the disease
which has had mild run here for some
time. The closing order reads:
Burlington, VT, May 8, 1916.
Dr. M. F. Prime,
Health Officer.
Barton, Vermont.
Dear Doctor:
On account of the continuance of
smallpox in the village of Orleans, you
are hereby instructed to close all
churches, schools. picture houses and
other places of public gathering until
the epidemic has entirely ceased.
By Order of the State Board of Health,
Charles F. Dalton,
Secretary and Executive Officer.
This order of course takes precedence
of notices which may appear in this
paper regarding public meetings though
such notices are omitted where pos

lures for Orleans Schools,

Preparations are rapidly nearing
completion for an exhibition in Orleans
of pictures, consisting of carbon photo
graphs, photographers and prints in
full color loaned by Elson Art Publica-
ton Co. Inc, of Belmont, Mass. The
object of the exhibition is to raise
funds with which to purchase pictures
to place in the schools. The exhibit
ton will be held at the school building
on May "a. Is and 26 from to p. m.
each day. 1t will comprise over 200
pictures, all of them copies of great
masterpieces. The price of tickets has
been made low enough for anyone,
children and adults alike, to be able to
attend. The pictures which will be
exhibited will not be for sale, but it
will be possible, through the school, to
purchase exact duplicates, and the
money raised through private sales of
this character will also go toward the
fund for purchasing pictures for the
schools.

She had once picked them up in her

that she called them by their Chris
