when he came to West Burke to reside.
He married Mary Ellen Silsby of West
Burke Jan l, 1871, and to them four
children were born. One son died in
early childhood, and another, Frank,
left the home circle when about 18
years old. The daughter, Celia, is
higb-school teacher in Waltham, Mass,
and the son, Ray, has a good business
position in Boston. Mr.. Spencer was
member of Company K. 9Th Vt.
regiment, and will be greatly missed by
the few remaining comrades. He was
member of the M. E. church, where
he has been faithful worker for many
years. He was a good neighbor, a
kind and loving husband and father,
and true friend, and his going leaves
vacancy that will be hard to fill. He
has been i'll since September, being
confined to his bed much Of the time.
| The end came Thursday morning and
| the funeral occurred Saturday after
noon at his late home. Rev. J. Q.
Angel officiated and selections were
sung by a male quartet from St.
Johnsbury. Many beautiful flowers
told of the love and esteem felt for
him by large circle Of friends and
aQcuaintances. "Taps" were sounded,
at the cemetery. just as he was laid to
rest, mustered out from the ranks of
this Grand Army to join that grander
army above. Aside from his immedi-
ate family, Mr.. Spencer leaves one
brother, Hiram Spencer. now of West
Burke, and several other relatives.
Mrs. Spencer. and the other members
of the stricken family have the heart
felt sympathy of the whole community
in their loneliness and grief Those
from out of town who attended the
funeral were Mrs. Ada Silsby, Mrs.
Louise Silsby, Mrs. Annie French,
Mrs. Lougee and Mrs. Flora Washburn
of st. Johnsbury, and Bert Davis of
Newport.

At the Methodist Church.

The subject for the morning was.
''The Unanswered Prayer" TIE x t
found in Mark 5 5:19. A wonderful
change always follows Christ's pres
ence in a life or in a community.
There are many people today who are
asking Christ to depart from them
because his presence means an entire
change in their home life, in their
business. The Gospel must be lived,
writing Of it Or telling about it is
insufficient. Each new power. each
fresh experience carries with it new
responsibilities. The call to be home
missionary, to serve Christ in the
home, is not less important than to be
gelIst. Character must sustain the
testimony or it were better to say
nothing. If there be love behind the
words they will not be lost.
The evening talk was upon "Abra-
ham Lincoln, the Man Who Made Our
History" A program issued by the
Freedmen's S Aid society was followed
in part. There is nothing new we can
say about this great man, yet like the
life of the Christ in whose steps he
loses its interest and gains luster year
-
for special purpose, few men will dare
dispute In seeking for the secret of
LincoIn's greatness we are not com.
PEELED to go far 1t was a natural out
growth of his goodness The Bible did
more than any other book to shape Lin
coins life. He always carried one in
his pocket and studied as opportunity
offered. He always weighed things in
the balance of the Almighty We
naturally think of Lincoln in connec
ton with the emancipat on of the
negro, for with stroke of the pen he
gave liberty to the race which had
been in bondage for century. If he
had lived he would have made wise
plans for the care of this race. He was
not permitted to do this and some one
else has had to do this.
Prayer meeting on Thursday evening
at the usual hour.
A meeting of the Vermont Home
Missionary society for election of
officers will be held in the vestry of
the close of prayer meeting on Thurs
day. Everyone interested is invited to
attend.

The extension school in home econom-
les closed Friday evening after four
successful days The attendance, al
though good at first. kept increasing,
showing an increase of interest as the
school continued Miss Bessie M.
Thayer gave all the lectures and
demonstrations except those on Wed
nesday and part of Friday evening,
these were given by Mrs ]. w. Dana
The main thing Miss Thayer tried to
teach was the principle Of food selec-
ton, it's effect upon health and vigor,
especially that of the growing child.
Under the topic, "Greater Variety in
Common Foods" simple ways of cook
ing and combining rice, peas and beans
with other foods to give greater variety
in our everyday diet were shown. A
more common use of milk and eggs
was recommended, especially for chill
dren. She spoke of nuts and cheese as
planned that they supplied the same
nutriment in the diet as meat and
should be used in place of it instead of
with it.
Mrs. Dana gave the lecture and
demonstrations Wednesday evening.
The main points in her talk were that
people, especially children, should avoid
eating too much meat and that the
more expensive meats contain less
nourishment than the inexpensive
ones. She demonstrated ways of cook :
ing the cheaper cuts, Miss Thayer
said in connection with her talk on
Fruits and Vegetables. ;" that people
need an abundance of green vegeta
bles, fruits and water to offset the had
effects of meat. In speaking of food
functions, she emphasized the necessity
of food supplying energy, building
tissue and regulating body processes.
The meeting in which the ways of
making housework easier were dis
cussed, was perhaps the most interest
ing to housekeepers. more took part in
this meeting than in any of the others
and the meeting developed into a
general discussion. The final lecture
was on the furnishing and sanitation in
the home.
Preliminary to the lectures on sew
ing, Miss Thayer demonstrated ways
of detecting adulteration in fabrics.
Her suggestions in regard to cutting
and making shirt waists and skirts
were practical and helpful. Not only
did all enjoy Miss Thayer's lectures.
but all felt the influence of her strong
personality. The average attendance
was about rs. Great credit is due the
local committee, Mrs. F. d. Thompson.
Mrs. F. D. Pierce and Miss Fanny
May, for securing the school and for
their careful attention to the many
details necessary to make it success.

ton which ran something like this
was overheard in the school library
few days since, "Why, there aren't any
school notes in the Monitor, are
there?' "No, looked for them but
couldn't find any. And what differ
ence it makes in the paper" ooh,
do miss the school notes, They're the
best part of the paper" with apollo
gies to the editor.) And perhaps you
missed the school notes in last weeks
paper, too. Mr.. Reader. did you?
School work has been progressing in
a business-iike fashion since the re-
opening of school on Tuesday morning.

every body was glad to begin school
work again this last week.

and chose their class colors, garnet
and white. "Better late than never"

partment of the school library has
