Yes, Bryan schools are doing things
and they are the things which count
in after life. The commercial work,
the home economics courses, the
courses in science-these all mean ac-

Is given due attention.

An enrolment of % in domestic art
this year means that this feature OF

VERMONT BIRDS,
burlington News.

The Rutland High school count of
birds in that vicinity has been com
piled and the summary shows III
birds of different kinds, The prize
winner, Miss Thelma Eastman, counted
s4 birds,
Some of the uncommon kinds which
have been seen and recognized by the
Rutland students were Partunian
sandpiper evening grosbeak, pigeon,
hawk, solitary sandpiper Philadelphia
vireo, rusty backbird, cliff swallow,
marsh hawk, cedar waXwing, olive
backed thrush, hermit thrush, wood
thrush, yellow bellied sapsucker and
red-eyed vireo.
Most of these birds are not on our
list and we doubt if there are many
people who can equal the Rutland
young folks in knowledge of the winged
kingdom. English sparows, robins
and crows complete the list for most Of
us.

PROMINENT FERRISBURG MAN
DIES.

John Quincy Adams, prominent citi-
zen of Ferrisburg, died Friday evening
at his home at Cream Hill, aged 50
years. Mr.. Adams had been in declin-
ing health for three years, but was
able to be about until June Is, when he
was compelled to take to the bed, this
being the first time in his life that he
was confined to bed by illness. Mr..
Adams was born May q, 1927, in Fer
risburg, where he has always lived.
He was married in 1877 to Miss
Elizabeth Upper, who died in 1884,
leaving no children. He was married
to his second wife, Miss Anne Glynes,
in 1887. Mr.. Adams followed the occu-
patton of farmer and Spectator on the
Boston market, but retired from active
work eleven years ago. He was highly
respected by his townsmen. Though
interested in the welfare of the town
he avoided the holding OF any town
office. Mr.. Adams was born and reared
a Congregationalist, and held the office
of deacon in the local church from 1890
until 1906, when he resigned from its
active duties. He was one of the early
promoters for the building of the
present house of worship for the Con-
gregational society in Ferrisburg and
was member of the building commit
tee. He was also solicitor for funds
for the bell now in use, and was the first
clerk of the present society in 1866 Be-
sides wife he is survived by one daugh-
ter, Mrs. Frank Keyes of Mildlebury.
The funeral was held from his late resi-
dence Tuesday afternoon at one O'Clock,
Rev. j. Hall Long officiating.
