The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1916-02-23

The holiday, with closed offices, stores
and other places of business, coupled
with an attractive card, brought the
largest crowd OF the season to the Wi
nooski river course yesterday afternoon
to witness the races. Hundreds of spec
tators lined the banks on either side of
the river and almost as many selected
the ice as the place to view the fast
spurts. Quarter mile heats were in order
for the first time in several years on the
local track and the fastest time of the
afternoon was made by Billy Walters,
jr., in the second heat of the race in
which Anna Deem was forced for the first
time this season to take second money.
The Anna Deem Billy Walters match,
termed Class A, was the most interesting
clash of the afternoon and the little
Barre mare captured the first heat in 80
seconds. Thereafter the BedelI horse
was able to outpaee the daughter of Al
deem. The other winners of the after
noon were Duke, owned by Lord, Cherry
Dean, owned by Villas and capably driv-
en- by Slayton, and Max L. Bingen The
driving club has arranged for another at
tractive program next Saturday.

UNDER PATRIOTIC DECORATIONS
"Gentlemen's Night Entertainment Civ
en- By Woman's Club.

A concert program which, while brief,
was full of excellence was given at the
Rowland hall last evening by the Barre
Woman's club. There was large at
tendance of club members. As it was
also "gentlemen's night" good many
men were in attendance. The program
consisted of numbers by Carroll's or
chestra, two readings by Miss Florence
Hinckley, instructor of elocution at
Montpelier seminary, and solos by Louis
II. Baine of Montpelier and Mrs. Isabella
Cautlay Hall of Barre. So we'll pleased
was the audience that encores were de-
manded of the performers. After the
program there was dancing until mid
rolls orchestra.
The hall was prettily decorated in
keeping with the holiday on which the
event was held. The diet feature OF
the decoration was a portrait of George
Washington grazing the wall back of the
orchestra stage. The portrait was itself
surrounded with the Stars and Stripes,
and national colors were elsewhere dis
played, in bunting and in the electric
light bulbs strung about the hall. An
other reminder of the day was pretty
little souvenir in the shape of a paper
Ratchet handed to each guest on en-
trance into the hall. In one corner of
the hall there was booth at which light
were served during the
dancing. Altogether, the affair was one
of the most pleasing of the year.

There is a Real Difference

Cream of tartar derived from grapes,
is used in Royal Baking Powder because
it is the best and most healthful ingredient
known for the purpose.
Phosphate and alum, which are de-
rived from mineral sources, are used in
some baking powders, instead of cream of
tartar, because they are cheaper.
If you have been induced to use baking
powders made from alum or phosphate,
use Royal Baking Powder instead. You
will be pleased with the results and the
difference in the quality of the food.

seemed base desertion to leave them.
Milly cried one whole night. Then
she took up her burden, laughing her
sweet way along the path of duty,
sometimes dark, ever hopeful.
Milly proceeded with her baking.
She felt guilty at the extravaganza,
but she loved sweet and pretty
things, even edibles, and had to add
a pan of cookies to the heap of bis
cults. Of both she made up a small
package, put it under her arm and
donned. her sunshade.
81 am going to run over to Aunt
Wards" she announced.
Its a pretty hard climb over the
range for hot day like this" sug-
gested Mrs. Gordon.
ooh, l don't mind that" chirped
Milly, land I've had rare luck with
the baking"
Just as Milly started to run across
the yard she paused in startled won
der. Coming through the open gate
way, Hmping, blood stained, swaying
from side to side, was dog. The ami
NAL seemed to have fallen or had |
been battered by rock landslide up |
in the range. He ran to the pump and
licked the empty water pail, looking
imploringly into the face of Milly.
"You poor sufferer" cried the SYM
pathetic girl, and she filled the pail |
and placed it before the animal who |
drank thirsty. Then she tossed him |
a cookie from her bundle which he |
snapped greedily.
"You just rest here until l get |
back" said Milly, land I'll see if there |
is any cold meat for you"
But the animal, revived, ran about |
her in a circle. 1t would lift it's head |
and utter a loud echoing, baying
sound. Then, regarding her beseech-
ingly the animal started in front of |
her, frequently looking back to OBJ

To the intelligent Milly all this
meant something She decided from

that the animal had a human COM
panion, who, too, had sustained in
jury, and the faithful dog had start
ed out to bring assistance and res
cue?
At least so Milly reasoned, and
when, half way across the range, the
animal paused at a spot with which
Milly was entirely familiar, she
guessed out the situation in a fash
Someone has fallen into the cav
ern pitt" she exclaimed.
Milly quickly descended a slant
twenty feet away. Further progress
brought her up against a vine-clad
wall of solid rock. She brushed aside
a great clump of verdure to disclose
a gap in the rock surface. Through
this Milly crept, followed by the dog.
She experienced vivid shock as
she noticed lying on the ground a
young man. He was motionless and
his eyes were closed. His clothing
indicated taste and wealth, his fea-
lures were open and handsome. A
walking staff by his side indicated

into the pit.
Milly did everything by impulse.
She threw down her bundle of
goodies and hurried from the spot.
The dog did not accompany her, but,
as she retraced her way from the
pit, came up and licked her hand, as
if encouraging her in her good work.
She did not consume much time in
getting back home.
Mr.. Gordon was on a neighboring
farm. Milly located him and recited
the tragedy of the hour. There was
no resisting her appeal and marked
out plan. Mr. Gordon soon had a
horse hitched to a light wagon, sum-
moned a helper, and all hands hur-
ried away to the vicinity of the old
pit.
