Ex-Congressman Joyce Dead.

Lieut-Col. Charles H. Joyce, sc, one
Of the very few living ex-congress-
men from Vermont, died Nov %,
after an illness of about seven weeks.
For many years since retiring from
the practice of law, he spent most of
his time in Pittsford, where he died,
usually going to Bethel for the winter
months.
Mr.. Joyce was a native of England.
He came to the United States with
his parents in 1886, and they settled
on farm in Waitsfeld, where the boy
grew up, later attending the Waits
field and Mortified academies and
Newbury seminary. At the outbreak
of the Civil war he was appointed by
Gov. Erastus Fairbanks as major of
the second Vermont infantry and in
June of the following year he was
appointed by Gov Holbrook as lieu
tenant-colonel in the same regiment.
He was with his regiment in the first
battle of Bull Run, Lees Mills, Will
liamsburg, Golden Farm and many
other engagements. In several of
these battles he was mentioned by his
superior officers for gallant conduct
on the field.
On retiring from the army Col.
Joyce went to Rutland and resumed
the practice of law. He began his
political career when he was elected
town representative from Rutland in
1869. He was reelected next term
and was speaker of the house. In
1874 he was elected to congress and
was reelected three successive times.
He was in great demand as a speaker
IN his younger days.

the National Red Cross. The seals
are to be put on sale for one cent each
and the money raised used to fight tu-
berculosis. Ninety per cent Of the |
receipts will be for the campaign in |
Vermont conducted by the Vermont I
association.
Every effort has been made to make
the 1916 Red Cross seals more attrac-
tive than any of it's predecessors, yet
it is not to be forgotten that the true
beauty of the seal lies deeper than the
artists craft. Unlike other Christ
mas seals the Red Cross seals on
Christmas letter or package indicates
that the sender is doing his bit to help
the sufferers from consumption and
to protect innocent boys and girls
from the disease.
Seals have been distributed to near
ly every town in the state and placed
on sale in most of the leading stores.
III. w. Slocum, secretary of the asso-
citation, has set the mark for the sale
at an average of three seals for every
citizen in the state. This it is stated
will net the association between eight
and nine thousand dollars and will en-
able it to carry out its program for
the prevention of tuberculosis.
Another Honor for Old Norwich.
Norwich university, the oldest mill
tary college or school of any kind in
the United States, excepting West
Point, has just been designated by the
war department as a unit of the re-
serve officers training corps for train
ing reserve officers Of cavalry. Nor
witch university is the only exclusively
cavalry school in the United States,
and is the only college or university
in the United States designated by
the war department as cavalry unit,
senior division of the reserve officers
training corps.
Norwich university is unique among
American colleges in that it was the
first, by great many years, to adopt
a military system in connection with
its regular academic courses. The
university was founded in 1919 by
Captain Alden Partridge, graduate
ed States military academy at West
Point. 1t is the pioneer engineering
school of the country, antedating all
others by at least eight years.
The original name of the institu-
ton was the American Literary, Sci
entific and Military academy, but on
Nov. 6, 1884, the state of Vermont
granted a charter of incorporation I'M
der the name of Norwich university
which thus became the first scientific
and classical, as well as the first mill
tary collegiate institution in the Unit
ed States.
It is a characteristic and peculiar
feature of the institution that, in ad-
dition to the usual collegiate courses
the charter requires ga course of mill
tary instruction, both theoretical and
practical" For this reason the dis
cipline is military in form and princi-
pie, modelled after that of the national
academy at West Point.
