The Vermont Industrial school at
Vergennes is again lucky in burning
up another o. its old buildings with
no less OF life. The school will now
get nice new modern building in
place of an old wooden dormltory.
The only criticism that can be made
is that so late in the fall is bad time
for fire. 1t really should have been
delayed until the first OF May.

THE TRACTION
COMPANY IS
ADVANCING
OLD EXTENSIONS WILL BE
ABANDONED AND OTHERS IN
STALLED WHERE THEY WILL
BE OF SERVICE TO PUBLIC.

One of the busiest places in or
around Ardmore at the present time
is the car barn and shops of the
Ardmore traction company situated
Just north west OF the city limits,
and when all Improvements there
are complete It will be quite a little
community itself.
The barns and shops are com.
modious affairs at present, but they
have been so constructed that ex-
tensive additions can be made at
any time. A large force of men are
busily engaged in overhauling all the
rolling stock and getting It ready
for commission as speedily as pos.
sible. the cars have been equipped
with new machinery, have been up
holstered and repainted and will pre-.
sent the appearance Of new cars
when they go into commission.
A survey is made at the present
time from the present terminal to
Dornick Hills country club and in
stead Of line running to Lorena
Park. that line will be taken up and
the material used in this new survey
which will probably run west OF Har.
grove college and on to the club. The
Maxwell line will also be taken up
and the material utalizei in other
places. There is material enough in
these two extensions 10 go a long
way toward extending the lines here
in the city limits and in all probabili-
ty that which is not needed for the
Dornlck hill branch will be so utaliz-
ed. The company is building a wait
ing room at the switch and contem.
plating several cottages for their
employees.
Mr.. Putnam and HIS associates in
the traction deal are going to keep
pace with the growth OF the city. and
as soon as extensions are demanded
they are I'm position TO make them.
The people Of the fourth ward have J
been clamoring for street car ser

vice for a number of years, in fact
ever since the system was installed
and In all probability their efforts
will be rewarded now that the an
nual county fair is assured.
The extension from the present
terminal to Dornick Hills by way Of
Hargrove college will be a great con-
venience both to the club and to the
school. Bloomfield academy in all
probability will be open by the first
of the year II not before and it would
be a great convenience for pupils
who live in the city to be able to
get to school by street car.
The terminus at Dornick Hills is
but a short walking distance from
the city lake and the Rod and Gun
club and would serve the public In
either instance.
