Music in Our Rural Schools

From the Christian Herald
 If the peekle of any rural community wish to add to the interest and value of the school, let them assist the teacher in securing photograph and 8 good selection of~records.
 In my small town, the teacher of our district asked my assistance in this matter. A subscription paper was taken to every house, whether the peo- pie had children in the school or not. For 1t was felt that this was com munity affair.
 The response was very generous, the total being enough to buy small but good machine of standard make. We then planned an entertainment, to be given by the children. A small admis- sion was charged, and cake. ice cream. and candy were on sale. This proved to be a very successful affair finan- cially, and very enjoyable as a com munity gathering, With the proceeds fine selection of records was pur- chased This was two years ago Each year two such gatherings are held, to secure funds for new records

moment to every patriot, and the pic
lures will be different from anything
heretofore seen in Middlebury.
During the Red Cross week the local
committee will need pledges to total
of $500 if it is to meet its share of the
state S requirements. While the pledges
must be made during the week, the pay
ment of the money may be made any
time between now and the first of Octo-
Der. One-fourth of all the money
raised here may be retained by the
local committee for the purchase of ma
terials here for Red Cross dressings.
For the Vermont boys soon to be
fighting Somewhere in France" there
must be provided well-equipped recrea-
ton camps to give them rest from the
hideous sights and sounds of war in the
trenches, and these the Red Cross will
supply, along with many otherwise i'm
possible comforts and necessities. Can
patriotic Vermont stand back when
money is required for the alienation of
such suffering as must come to the best
and finest of her young mem" Says
the local appeal, "Mddlebury must give
not only what she can afford, but all
that she can deny herself, for it is the
time for denials and sacrifice, out of the
ranks as we'll as in them, and only in
this way can everyone do not only his
bit but his best by his flag"

NEW GENERAL CATALOGUE
Complete Record of All MIDI Men
From 1900 to 1916

The College is issuing this week
new edition of the General Catalogue.
The late Dean Walter E. Howard, to
whom the college is chiefly indebted for
the General Catalogue of its centennial
year, had accumulated before his death
much valuable data for a new edition.
This was placed in the hands of the
present compiler, E. j. Wiley, in De-
cember, 1915 and since that date the
collection of new material and revision
of former records has preceded as
rapidly as other duties would allow
The present volume includes the
records of all VINO have been connected
with the college from 1900 through the
year 1915, with corrections to the time
of going to press.
The features which have made the
earlier work 80 indispensable during the
last seventeen years have been retained
and many new ones which greatly in
crease the extent and accessibility of
the contents have been added. Of the
latter, the biographical sketches of all
trustees and recipients of honorary and
advanced degrees and the complete
page reference in the index to all parts
of the book, instead of reference to
classes, as was the case in the last
edition, are perhaps the most note
worthy. The records of the period since
1900 are, of course, entirely new and
include some very interesting informa-
ton. The book contains $50 pages and
is handsomely bound in blue cloth,
uniform with the 1900 edition. 1t is in.
valuable as a source of local and state
history.

MIDDLEBURY AWAKE?

With so many things demanding pa
triotic effort it is hardly safe to say
that any one thing eclipses all others in
Importance, but there is only one thing
that wins war and that is fighting.
The Register is proud that the Vermont
boys are TO be among the first to follow
our flag TO the trenches in France, but
grievously ashamed Of the fact that in
this tenth week Of our war our only
regiment is 500 men short of its war
strength, it shares with other citizens
of Middlebury in humiliation over the
fact that the grim but glorious work
which the Vermont boys are going to
carry abroad will have no Addison
County unit whatsoever, above a few
scattered enistments, unless some
eleventh hour burst of patriotism
sweeps some Of our young men into the
ranks. We should hate to see them go
into such a terrible business, but should
hate more to have our children read the
coming history of this war and find that
their fathers, and brothers stood back
either too selfshly or too cowardly to
bear their share of the burden.

Our neighboring "city", less than
half the size Of Middlebury, has
applied for the formation of company
there and 1t would be humliating If
Middlebury could not show as much
spirit. The Register believes that the
village lacks a leader-lacks it in the
sense that many Of those capable of
leading hesitate to come forward, and
1t appeals for such one to bring this
new Middlebury company into line.
If there are those who feel that mill
tary organization il secondary to farm
cooperation, as we believe it may be for
the moment, The Register suggests
that the formation of military com
pany here might lead to one of the
strongest means for helping on the
farm. A company of soldiers under
good command can tackle almost any
kind Of job more efficiently than the
same number Of men under any other
circumstances, Before the summer is
over we expect TO hear farmers shouting
for help to harvest their unusual crops,
and we believe that Home Guard should
be employed to some extent in tackling
in a big and get-together way some of
the harvest work, They do it on the
farms close up by the trenches in
France do it so effectively that record
crops have been raised and harvested
under shell fire, and though the idea is a
little beyond anything that has been
tried here, we believe it would work on
