needs of the city.
He said with proper planning the
city should have 100000 population in
ten years. He showed how the trans.

the trolley moved the business more

spoke OF the changes in New Yorl;
from Eighth to Thirty-fourth street,
how values deprecated III the old sec

Among other points brought out by
Mr. Rooster We're the following: All
overhead wires should 90 underground

any distractions.
All awnings, show cases. etc, should
be removed from the pavements.
Advertising signs should be no low.

More light should be supplied for

essary to make the city more attrac-
tive.
The approaches to the city should be
widened. The Bethlehem pike ap.
proach should be eighty feet wide.
This can be done by condemning prop

be in ten years from now.

He said the city was spending SD,
900 year on temporary improvements
and urged that more of this be put

He urged that more parks and play

Saturday January IS, 1915.

Congressman Adamson has intro
duced a bill in congress to provide
that motor car registration and IL
cense in one state should entitle the
owner to the use of his own car in
any state without the annoyance of
being obliged to register and pay a
second or third time in one season,
The idea is right il it can be so fixed
that no one state could take ad-
vantage Of others by offering induce
ments in registration and auto tax

er of the state often sees the foolish
ness and annoyance of lack of uni
formity in state laws and regulations.

Vital statistics in Stowe for 1915
were as follows: Births 81, marriages
16, deaths 20, including the deaths of
three residents who died al hospitals
in Burlington. For 1914 the statistics
were; Births 81, marriages p and
deaths 81.
The foregoing news item makes a
creditable showing for one OF Yer
mont's best towns. Stowe is town
that retains its old New England
character to remarkable degree. Its
people are largely of Vermont birth
and Vermont parentage, its farms are
well kept and every home appears
prosperous and attractive. Stowe
village is the equal of any of it's size
anywhere in attractiveness and public
spirit. 1t maintains high grade
schools, supports good library and
is a credit to the state OF Vermont
There are no people anywhere more
hospitable and cordial than those of
Stowe and we are glad to see the proof
by the birth record that the popula-
tion is increasing.

Thus Edgar Allan Poe, back in the
early days of the last century, wro'e,
and, in the end, gave to the world a
poem which since has won for him
recognition as Americas greatest poet.
"The Raven" is the title of the poem,
and it is typical of that famous poet
melancholy, weird collection OF
verses which truly indicates his moody
and gloomy temperament. It is an
epitome of Poe's life-a tragedy from
beginning to end-and it reveals clear
ny the undying affection which he had
for his lost wife.
To-day, almost century since Poe
wrote his remarkable poem, Eessanay
has succeeded in accomplishing the
difficult task of reinearnating Poe. Es-
sanay has found Poe's parallel and his
double, in looks as well as tempera-
ment, in the person of it's leading actor,
Henry B. WalthaN, called "the Poe OF
the SCREEN" and considered The living
image of the great poet.
"A pnotoplay has been presented TO-
the public which an ethereally artistic,
intensely fascinating and soul-stirring
photo-tragedy-"The Raven" in six
acts. from George C. Hazelton's TO-
nance of Edgar Allan Poe. Naturally.
Mr.. WalthaH was given the leading
role in this remarkable production.
Ha7ing placed the leading part and
the direction Of "The Raven" in mas
ter hands, the producers faced the task
of finding mate for Mr.. Walthall-.
for Poe-someone who could correctly
portray four different parts, all emo
tional in their nature, yet all widely
differing in style of acting.
Warda Howard, who has played op-
posite Mr.. Walthall in most of his Es-
sanay successes, and who has won for
herself a nationwide Teputatlon as
great emotional actress, was selected.
The play is replete with visions
wnich carry out the whole thought and
theme of the romance and poem. An
gels float in the air, the dead wife OF
Poe rises from the grave and appears
before him as a spirit, the reflection of
his sweetheart in pool Of water ap-
pears to Poe as skeleton, and Poe
fights a duel with himself. These are
only a few of the illusions.
