These camps here, especially the san

both for the fisherman and huntsman
Three OF the boys swan across the
river TO the Mexican SIDE and were
rewarded BY twenty four hours extra
duty Tor dong the trick without per

the punishment as they declare it was
well worth It
But to be fair to all concerned the
trip would not have been made il they
had been acquainted with the order
not to cross the river except on orders
from the commander And If such or
der comes, which will not he any pic
mic party, the boys will be found eager
and willing to do their duty.

after the event.
Miss Prendergast is a school
teacher in charge of one of the rooms
in Chicago public school Crossing
the hall one afternoon she\ plainly
smelled the smoke of burning wood.
An instant later she saw thin curl
of smoke coming up through a crack
in the floor.
without giving the alarm or caus-
ing any excitement she entered her
room and dismissed the children, who
marched quietly out Then, with no
more than minutes delay, she no
titled the principal and assisted in
getting all the other pupils cut, the
building being entirely emptied in
three minutes.
cit would have been easy and per-
haps natural to have sounded an
alarm of fire, in which case a ire
mendous crush on the stairs with
consequent casualties would have
been almost unavoidable"
This teacher who got a Tribune
hero medal for Conspicuous courage
in the public service" was Amelia D.
Prendergast. She is a member of the
Teachers Federation and one of the
excellent teachers who was brutally
fired from the public schools by Jake
Loeb and his GckspittIe followers on
the board of education-and Jake
Loeb and his gang were backed up
in this brutal fight by the Tribune.
Yes, the Tribune pinned a medal
on Amelia Prendergast- after it had
hit her on the head with the Jake
Loeb club. It would be interesting to
know how many parents of the chill
dren whose lives she saved rushed to
her defense when the medal-givers
were throwing her out of the school

Chief Justice Harry Olsen, Col H. C.

One of the medals was awarded to
a public school teacher. Of her the
Tribune says:

shores Of the lake, and since it was
once nearly submerged by one Of the
lakes sudden changes in level, a dixie
ten or twelve feet high has been built
TO protect the houses against another
catastrophe.
The lake if normally a quarter Of
a mile wide and mile and a half
long, but at times the water falls 30
far that the Like il hardly $50 yards
wide. The fall is always sudden.
and 30 is the rise that eventually fol-
lows. Only one small stream enters
the lake, and there il no visible ont
let, but the water is always fresh.
When the railway was built through
kahlotus the workmeH tried to carry
Vie tracks across the lake on an en-
bankment, bnt the sand was swal-
lowed up almost as fast as it was
poured in 4 ditch was then dug to

Man Found Dead on the

Some years ago man was found
dead drunk ca the streets of Montpe-
lier, and ON biz being discovered by the
cop, he was sttaightway placed in Jail.
Now If q large number of people about
whose premises estrays, that IL TO say,
cattle, horses, hogs and sheep, may be
found without herder, do not change
their methods in the handling of such
stock. the comfy. bastile will claim
them as victims, and wherein the law
may be violated the transgressor will
be promptly prosecuted. the people
are therefore warned to heed the law,
an abstracts of which is Rs follows:

Think of il, Montpelier is
one of the very oldest towns
in the state, yet il hasn't a
public building of any kind
not a place where q public
meeting can be held, except
tho opera house, and it costs
30 plunks to secure il for a
meeting. The plans for a city
hall, which have been submit
ted TO the council, provide for
an auditorium with a seating
capacity of 275 people. This
would Be suitable for holding
political meetings in cam
paign years, and for this pur-
pose the city could charge q
rental of about SIS a meeting.
w re it not for the fact that
the trustees of the Odd Fell
lows have gFaciously donated
CHI use of the lodge room, the
people of Montpelier would
have had no place to meet in
recent years to nominate q
eiay ticket. There isn't even
= Dom in the city suitable for
hdl ding . meeting of the re-
publican or democratic coun-
~ central committees.
