RECRUITS FROM BENNINGTON
Are Invited to Join Company of
BrattIeboro.

The young men of Bennington and
other towns in this vicinity, who are
thinking of enlisting, are cordially in
vited to join Company / of Brattle-
boro.
This company now has II men from
Bennington and needs 80 more re.
cruits TO bring it up to war strength.
This will probably be the largest
group from this town in any one or
ganization and Bennington boys will
find it more congenial than if they en-
list among strangers or outside the
state.
Vermont pays it's volunteers $40 per
month extra in addition TO the gov
ernment pay and those who wait for
conscription will not get this extra
money. Transportation will be paid
and those who fail to pass the physi-
cal examination will have their fare
paid home, Vermont has the reputa-
tion OF looking after its boys in the
service better than almost any otter
state.
Company | is considered one of the
best companies in the Vermont regi-
ment and ranks well in every respect.
Food clothing, medical service and
dentistry are supplied.
Captain Gibson of Company ! will
be here tomorrow to remain a few
days He will be accompanied by
Private Edmund Howe of Bennington
and two other privates. They will
also be assisted by Reservist John j.
Purcell of School street.

EIGHTEEN ON EVENING HIKE
Enjoyable outing of Green Mountain
Club Wednesday Niuht.

Eighteen members and friends of
the Green Mountain club hiked We'd
nesday evening to the Y. NJ c. A.
camp at the foot of Burgess clearing.
The trip was planned so as to take
advantage of the full moon which, in
keeping with an established custom
on G. NJ. c. moonlight hikes, failed to
put in an appearance. At the camp
big bonfire was started and a gener-
GUS supply of frankfurters was roast
ed over the Goals and served with hot
rolls and coffee.
The uncertainty of the weather
made some delay in starting and with
more time spent at the camp than an
ticipated the hike over the Long
Trail to Loafmore was abandoned.
Those who made the trip expressed
their appreciation of the courtesy of
Mr.. Mann of the Y. M. c. A. who act
ed as host. The evening was enjoyed
by all, but the absence of the Weeks
street contingent, owing to the war
and other unfortunate events, was
noticeable.

Week in June.
The fourth annual picnic of the
Bennington County Sunday School as
sociation will be held in South Shafts
bury at Furnace grove on Wednesday,

The athletic program will be simpli-
fed to include more people and fur
nish fun for everyone. A silver cup
has been purchased and will be award
ed to the Sunday school winning the
most points in the contests. 1t will
become the permanent possession of
the school winning it three years in
succession. A banner will also be
awarded the school having the largest
percentage of its membership present
and responding to the roll call
The afternoon program will be most
unusual. The committee has drama
tized the manifesto of the Federated
Council of Churches of America call
ing the churches to do their part in
this time of national crisis. A chorus
of 1900 voices led by ]. M. Chambers
of North Adams and assisted by full
orchestra will carry out the program.
The county picnic has come to make
a real contribution to the life of the
Sunday schools of the county and in
crease the general feeling of goodwill
throughout the county. This year it
will seek to develop real constructive
patriotism.

gun to reach Washington tonight
