MISS LIZZIE r. TURNER.

Miss Lizzier r. Turner of No 5,
Franklin street, died early this morn
ing of heart trouble from which she had
been suffering for some time. Although
she had peen in poor health all winter,
her condition had not become critical
until few days ago. She was born in
Cornwall November a, 1851 and was the
daughter of William and Marcia Turner
of that place. She is survived by three
sisters, Mrs. Alice Hurlburt, Ida A.
Turner, and Stella C. Turner of Middle
bury, and by niece, Mrs. John Sperry,
of Cornwall, and two nephews, Clyde
Hurlburt and Raymond Hurlburt of
Middlebury. Miss Turner was men,
Der Of the local Congregational church
and the Ladies Home Missionary
society, and was very loyal in her at
tendance and interest. She was de-
voted daughter, caring tenderly for her
father and mother in their declining
years. She came to Middlebury thirteen
years ago. She was faithful sister,
devoting herself unselfshly to making
pleasant home for her two sisters who
lived with her. Quiet and unassuming,
she was more thoughtful for others
than for herself. She will be sorely
missed in the home circle, as well as in
the neighborhood and by many of the
College students and graduates whom
she has befriended. The funer raj will be
held at the house at half past two Sun
day afternoon and will be in charge of
the Rev. Thomas Simms, who was pas
tor of the Congregational church at the
time when Miss Turner united by letter
with the local church. ,s ..s Ga kasa

How Rangers Or National
 Forests Flash Reports

Washington, April 12.-A portable telephone, made of aluminium and weighing two and one-half pounds, the invention of a forest officer, R. B. Adams of Missoula, Montana, will be part of the regular equipment of pa trolmen on the National Forests the coming field season. This instru- ment is regarded as great improve ment over the set formerly used, which weighed ten pounds.
 1t is said that a, field man equipped with this telephone, a few yards of light emergency wire, and 8 short piece of heavy wire to make the ground connection can cut in any where along the more than 2O,OOO miles of Forest Service telephone lines and get in touch with the head quarters of a supervisor of district ranger. To talk, one end of the emergency wire is thrown over the telephone line, the two ends are con- nected to the porta ble instrument and theinstrument is connected to the ground wire, the end of which must be thrust into the damp earth or in water. Contact with the line wire is made possible by removal of

 Usually the people of Connection pay little attention to the text or the suggestions of Fast Day proclaim ations issued by the governor.
 The late Gov. George E. Lounsbury a gifted phrase-maker, said sorle things about Fast Day that attrac cted considerable attention and later Gov ernor Rollin s. Woodruff made the entire state take notice of his F'ast Day suggestions which were cordiahy commended by leading clergymen and the press.
 Governor Holcomb is another gov ernor who has ability to say things that ought to be said without uans phrases as familiar as the vocabulMy of the Frogs of Windham. GoVernor HoIcombs Fast Day message has a- tracted more than ordinary attent0 because it presented several timeV thoughts in a manner characterisnc- ally sensible and prophetic.
