WlLLED AWAY CHILDREN
Strange Case Before Rutland County
Probate Court.

Probate court.
Rutland, June IAN odd point OF
law will probably be raised in the
question OF the guardianship of two
minor children of the late Mrs.
Caroline T. Powers of Middletown
Springs, who in a will executed on
her death bed willed the children to
her mother, Mrs. Pandy of Milford,
N. H. One of the children was but a
few days old when the mother died.
The will was before Judge A. G..
Coolidge in probate court yesterday
afternoon, where il was probated
and allowed without objection. At
torney b. L. Stafford of the firm Of
Lawrence, Lawrence G. Stafford, ap-
peared for the present guardian OF
the children, Walton Frost of Middle
town Springs, while Attorney Joseph
C. Jones appeared for the proponent
of the will, Mr.. Pandy of Milford.
After the death of the mother, the
father Of the children having died
only few months before, Mr.. Frost
was appointed guardian of the chill
dren, the will not having made its
appearance at this time. Later Mr.
Pandy appeared with the will which
gives the children to the grandpar-
ents. The will was properly executed
and signed, but there is question
as to the right of the mother to will
away her children.

The Perfect Housekeeper.

She always kept everything perfectly
clean
From the cellar clear up to the top;
For neatness and order she surely was
keen ......
And no one could get her to stop,
Her husband could never find comfort
at home
For fear he would muss up the place
Where his wife with broom and a
buster would roam
With stern sort of look on her
face.
She never had time to be reading a
book,
She never had time for call,
Instead she was scrubbing some cor
ner or nook.
Or sweeping the stairs or the hall
She swept all her beauty and glad.
ness away,
She swept all the JOY out of life
Until she bacame an automation gray,
A cleaning machine-not wife.
She scrubbed all the love from the
heart OF her spouse,
Her children were playless and
glum.
She had her reward-an immaculate
house
Where nobody ever would come.
She sent and she busted and scrub
bed like slave.
Till she swept herself into the tomb,
And the monument now at the head
of her grave
Is a duster, a brush and broom!

Builder.
