CALEDONIA COUNTY.

The June term of Caledonia county
court will have the Hon. E. l.. Water
man of Brattleboro, for presiding
Judge. The term will open Tuesday,
June 6.
I. Prof. Howard H. Gibbs, who has
been instructor in the commercial de-
partment of st. Johnsbury academy
for the past year, has resigned~ to
accept the position of secretary of the
Fall River (Mass.) School of Com
merce.
A supplementary hearing before the
public service commission was held at
the courthouse, st. Johnsbury, Thurs
day on the application of the Essex
Storage & Electric company for a
charter to DO business in Vermont.
This company plans to construct an
immense storage basin in Victory and
at the last hearing it was brought out
that the company has much more
extensive plans. First it plans to con-
struct power plant at the dam in
Victory. This plant it is estimated
would cost 500, 700 and develop 2. zoo
horsepower and put out 10000 kilowatts
of electricity. It hopes to buy the
sawmill and the unused power below
it at East St. Johnsbury and build g
plant there that would give 700 horse
power, 525 kilowatts at an estimated
cost of S48, 3O5. 1t would also like tt
buy the water power of the C. c.
Follensby estate in the edge of Sum
merviIle, go back up stream about hall
mile for dam and conduct the water
down to the present water wheel
which would give them 70 feet fall
This plant they estimate would cos
about $50. 900 and give them 935 horse
power for the development of electri
city.

College Gets Precious Menento.

Allegheny college, at Meadville, Pa,
has received from Doctor Haskins of
Boston the die which was used in the
original seal Of the college nearly 100
years ago. Doctor Haskins discovered
the die among the records of his ia
Their, who was professor in the col
lege from 1874 to 1886. This die was
probably made in Boston in 1922 or
1923. 1t was in constant use until the
early sixties, when 1t disappeared.

If you keep a horse, don't have
a manure pile or bin. Put the ma
nure is a small receptacle-say,
tin tub or barrel which can be kept
covered from flies. Have this taken
away and spread on a field oftener
than once week.
If you have an outdoor toilet, see
that the vault is closed up tight where
the house fits over it. Use sod to make
plenty Of lime on the sewage and keep
covers on the seat holes.
Keep your house screened, keep a
swatter handy and keep your eye
peeled-for during cold or rainy
weather few flies almost surely will
wander in. Vigilance and action on
your part will so discourage the flies
after one or two seasons that they
will keep away from your premises.
Tell this to your neighbors and urge
them to join you in the campaign
against the fly pest. Pretty soon 9TH
ers will see the advantage OF santa
ton, and if there's any "git-up-and-git"
in the neighborhood it will not be long
until everybody in your END of the
town will have the sanitary habit.
1t is not expensive to get rid of
flies. There are people who may feel
they cannot afford to buy a garbage
can or other little necessities of clean
premises. Where there's a will there's
a way. If you cannot afford today to
spend any money, set your mind on
cleaning up the place and do the best
you can. Use such extra tubs and
buckets as you have at hand. Above
all, don't be lazy. Clean up right!

REMINGTON ARMS CO..
INVESTIGATE HERE

An indianapolis dispatch TO TIE
News-Times states that officials y.
the Remington Arms Co have been
in Indianapolis at various times in
the last few weeks with the inten-
ton of esta blishing a large arms fac
tory in that city. These officials. no
doubt, are the same who came to
Mishawaka some time ago and in
vestigated conditions with the same
purpose in view. A large plat of
ground south of the city was picked
out as being the likely spot for the
establishment Of the enterprise. and
a price was asked from the owners.
but nothing further was heard Of
the project 1t was thought here that
owing TO the early termination of
the war the company had given Vp
the idea of starting a branch in In
diana. 1t is said that it has con-
tracts for several millions of war
material on hand for the allies.

The property owners and officials
OF the city will meet in the council
chamber Of the city hall next Friday
night to discuss the matter OF doing
away with sidewalk Instructions
and. if possible TO eliminate the
abutments which abound in front of
many OF the buildings in the bust
ness district The matter of having
the Bell Telephone Co. place its
wires underground. so that its poles
may be removed from the streets,
will also be taken up. While il is
not the intention Of the administra-
ton 10 take any drastic measures to
bring about these Improvements, it
is thought that by gradual elimina-
ton OF these unsightly features
much good can be accomplished
Another matter in which action will
be taken is the sidewalk shop dis
plays in front of the stores. which
are specially obnoxious. and which
hamper pedestrian traffic. II is felt
that these merchants who at times
occupy half the sidewalk with their
goods. should be made TO observe
the law in its strictest sense, and by
this do away with 'the congested
state of the sidewalks. Much in
terest IL being taken in the meeting.
