MRS. TRUDO INJURED.

Mrs. Oliver Trudo of Weybridge was
struck and knocked down by an auto
mobile driven by Benjamin o. Wales OF
Weybridge on Main street near Mil
street about 10 o'clock Saturday even
ing. She received broken rib and a
bad scalp wound. The car was running
very slowly which was fortunate
thing for the woman. Mrs. Trudo was
taken from beneath the car Immediately
to the Office of DR.. P. L. Dorey on
Court street, where she was cared for.
Later in the evening she was taken to
her home. Just how the accident hap
pened cannot be accounted for. The
only explanation is that the street was
more or less blocked by two automobiles
and some teams, which had been stand
ing there and Mrs. Trudo did not see
the approaching machine when she at
tempted to cross the highway and was
struck.

DEMONSTRATIONS PROFITABLE.

Recent field demonstration meetings
and field inspections carried on by the
county agent have revealed the fact
that the oat smut has caused loss of
about Is per cent of the oat crop in
fields where the seed was not treated to
prevent this disease. This would mean
a loss to the county of about $50, 900
provided there was no oat seed treat
ed last spring. Fortunately several
hundred farmers attended the barn
demonstrations carried on by the
county agent in the spring and saw how
the seed was treated and took advan-
tage of the opportunity to clean the
smut out of their seed. Thus about one
third of the area sown to oats is prac-
tcally free from smut, making saving
to the county of around $4,000.
This is only a beginning and next
year every farmer should treat his oat
seed at cost of about five to ten cents
per acre and thereby stamp out this
disease.
Any farmer wishing to find out how to
do this will have an opportunity to con-
suit the county agent in his booth at
the fair and will get copy of directions
free for the asking.

FRIDAY, AUGUST IS, 1910
ARMY CHAPLAIN.

The following editorial from the
Eagle Pass (Texas) Herald is interest
inc as showing something of the work
which President Thomas has been doing
as chaplain Of the First Vermont In
fantry.
"The Herald man confesses Ignorance
of the work usually done by the Army
chaplain-in truth it had been the I'M
pressiou that they in many instances
were only tolerated for policy's sake
and were sort Of compromise with
nersons who demanded some sort OF re-
ipious observances. This impression
has been dispelled and we take OIL our
hat to the army preacher, if they are in
the main the same kind of hustlers as
those now here in Eagle Pass
Chaplain Smith who came down
with the 9rd Infantry from New YORK
found the Episcopal church at Eagle
Pass without rector and he immediate
" got into harness and arranged to hold
services regularly each Sunday. This
without compensation and for the reason
that he felt it duty and it pleased
the army officers to have him take part
in affairs of any town or community III
which the regiment was located The
chaplain spent not only his time but
individual funds in the work. lie hao
things under good Roadway when the
3Oth Infantry and the National Guard
arrived. With these units came Chap'
lain Londahl of the 30th Infantry, VINO
is holding services at the Aztec each
Sunday morning at 10 80, and Chaplain
Dame of the 9Th Maryland, Chaplain
Gould of the 4th Maryland, Chaplain
McKeever of the End Kansas, Chaplain
Thomas of the 1st Vermont and Chap
lain Naismith of the lst Kansas. lhey
hit town with their sleeves rolled up
and at work to do the best possible Tor
the men of their regiments.
"They found the other fellow at
work and it wasn't long before they
got together and mapped out plan OF
action. When a menace threatened
they attacked it with all the vigor at
their command and found that not only
the colonies in command were ready to
assist them, but that the best element
of Eagle Pass, was ready to get in the
game with them, too. Without fuss or
undue publicity they accomplished work
that reflects credit upon them at Eagle
Pass.
They are a splendid set of men
"a credit to the army, themselves, and
dignity the calling they have chosen.
On Sundays they are preaching in our
churches and assisting in our Sunday
schools, in addition to looking after
regular regimental appointments and
work. They are busy. They are worth
much to the army and any community
in which they may be located. If all
army chaplains are like those in Eagle
Pass Uncle Sam is as good judge of a
preacher as he is of fighting man.

HISTORY OF VERMONT.

The Journal of Education has the
following to say about DR., Collins
new edition of his History of Vermont,
from which citations have been made
recently in our columns.
vermont has abundance of romance,
and DR.. Collins makes the most Of it
There is also a graphic portrayal of the
civic physical, industrial, commercial,
educational life, with statistical tables,
maps, and illustrations. In this re-
vised edition it is brought down to date
in every respect.
The fact that CHM e. Co, publish the
book is evidence of the mechanical eX-
cellence of the work. 1t is replete with
Illustrations, particularly on the life
and industries of the people, The i'll
ustration of Fort Vengeance is of local
interest, the drawing for the cut having
been made from detailed contemporary
description of the Fort, which can be
found reprinted in Caverly's History of
Pittsford. Many other illustrations in
DR.. Collins history were prepared es-
pecially for the work. In the fullness
of pictorial description of the handi-
craft of olden times the book deserves
to rank with special studies like Alice
Morse Earle's Home Life in Colonial
Times, or Clifton Johnson's Old Time
Schools and School Books.

VERMONT INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL
CONTINUED from Page -


contractors at over $4,000, Some of the
most competent judges in the United
States of institutions of this type visited
the school during the last year. Their
statements on leaving IT were most fiat
tering 10 the board which has outlined
the school policies and managed its
affairs.
In point of food, clothing, housing,
education, social and religious advant-
ages, the school need not fear COMPARE
son with any school in the East The
industrial development received severe
check at the time of the fire and will
not be able to attain former proportions
again until room for the same is pro-
vided Barring this one feature which
can be amply provided for with the cost
of about $40 per capita in school Of
this size, the school is functioning along
all different lines in way which has
won the approval of those most com
petent to judge.
| In every department Of the State and
commonwealth radical changes being
introduced in quick succession are bound
to bring criticism from the unintiated
public. Many radical changes have
been made in this institution and have
brought their share of criticism. OF
the three members of the Penal Board,
the chairman, j. +. Weeks, has been
set aside to have particular supervision
of the industrial school because of his
near location. Many Of the changes
made at the school are chargeable
directly to his initiative and all of the
changes have had his hearty approval
and support. Many times during the
past ten years when funds to make
these needed changes were not avail
able at the time that it seemed that the
changes must be made he provided for
these changes until the money was
forthcoming This did not entail a
small amount hut often thousands Of
dollars for which he has neither received
or asked any interest.
The piano in the chapel was his
present; the bell in the chapel came
from him and now the beautiful equip
ment of the hospital was a gift from
him and Mrs. Weeks. His policy has
always been: 1.-The school is for the
children and it must do all that wisdom
suggests as best for their advance
ment
To the generosity of the people Of
Vermont through its representatives
in Montpelier, to few warm hearted
friends who have literally supplemented
the States gifts and to the genous, I'M
firing care and interest and to the
strong moral support of Judge Weeks
and his board are due the added privi-
leges and opportunities which have
come to these boys and girls.
Reference to their reports will show
that the three Massachusetts Industrial
Schools averaged about $500 per capita
maintenance cost during their last fiscal
year; that the Maine and New Hamp-
shire Schools maintenance cost was
about the same; that the New York
State Industrial School near Rochester,
N. Y, with a population of about 500
had per capita cost of 1927, Figures
just in from the State Purchasing
Agents office show that the per capita
maintenance cost of the Vermont In
dustrial School during the year 1915
and 1916 was 1892. so.

MIDDLEBURY'S 72ND YEAR.

Mddebury is making ready for its
big annual event-the 72nd Addison
County fair, to be held from August
Goth to September lst, inclusive. Sec
rotary F. C. Dyer is more than usually
busy making preparations for the eX-
tensive exhibits already arranged for,
and the entertainment features are
being booked in manner that means a
big show all around.
A big feature of the fair, and some
thing new in this part of the country
will be a special Ford Day" on We'd
nesday, August 90th. On that day it is
expected that visitors to the fair will
witness the biggest aggregation of Ford
cars ever assembled in New England.
The management are offering liberal
money prizes for distance, number OF
cars in line, ETC., and every auto owner
in Vermont will receive a notice of the
competition. Parking facilities have
been greatly increased.
The vaudeville and midway attrac-
tons are said to contain some new and
surprising features-a among these being
the wonderful roler-skating bear which
will perform every day in front of the
grand stand.
The Rutland railroad will have special
excursions and run special trains from
north and south to handle the crowds.
