STRUCK BY TRAIN
Peter McDuff of st. JOhnsbury
and Horse Hit by Train on
Way Home from Work.

While driving home from work at
Fairbanks shops, st. Johnsbury,
Friday night, Peter McDuff, 65, was
struck by a northbound train on a
Boston & Maine crossing. He and
his horse were instantly killed and
his sleigh was smashed to kindlings.
AS it was 20 below zero, McDuff
was we'll bundled up for his five-mile
drive home and failed to hear the
train or the warning of his fellow
workmen, Fred Gallagher. The train
was past due and he was not watch
ing for it.
This is the second time McDuff
had been struck by a train. Last
summer on his way to work his
herse was struck and killed and he
was hurled several feet, sustaining
serious injuries. He leaves a son
and daughter, Miss Lottie McDuff
of Lyndon, and Edward McDuff, liv-
ing in New Hampshire.

Friday, Feb. I'd, was given over
to winter sports at Norwich univer-
sity. During the forenoon there
were different military drills on
snowshes, skis, and horseback.
'Patroling on skis and snowshes and
riding cross-country on horses in the
deep snow were some of the stunts.
The afternoon was taken up with
tobogganing ski jumping, ski and
snowshp races, etc. A representa-
tive of a leading news weekly picture
concern was present and took films
of the several events. He remarked
that the occasion was the most sue
cessfully conducted winter event
which he had attended for long
time. A number of out of town
guests were present.

1st Annual Voting Contest.

On page four will be found the
preliminary announcement of our
first voting contest of this paper.
AS it may be the only one we shall
have, every effort is being put forth
to make it the most successful of all
the many contests that we have con-
Quoted.
More and more we have come to
see that the success of these contests
lies in making it easy for the candi-
dates to win.
There will be many new features
in this contest for helping the candi-
dates and making the work easier
for them.
Larger and better prizes and more
of them will be offered the boys and
girls for collecting the little votes
printed on page four.
These are a vital factor in the sue
cess Of any candidate aud the success
of any contest.
On the fnithful and regular collec-
ton of these votes depends the inter-
eE! created among the subscribers.
In other contests the grand prize
winners were those who put the most
effort into collecting these little
votes.
The first thing to do if yon would
like to win any of the grand prizes is
to send in your name.
If you do not desire to enter the
contest, you surely know of some in
your neighborhood who would like
some one of the prizes.
Send in their names, any mum ber,
and if they become interested and
make try for any prize, we will
send you this paper year free, or
send it to any name you may desire,
1t will cost you nothing TO do this
and you will do US and some friend
a great favor in this contest.
You can not lose as we shall give
every active candidate who does not
win a grand prize a cash commission
on all subscriptions they send US, so
that they will earn good money
whether they win or not.
The vacation season will soon be
here and this will give schoolteach-
ers, young ladies, everybody, fine
opportunity to earn money and win
big prize, just what they want
most.

Norwich University Cadets Set
High Moral Standard.

Considerable criticism has been
made within recent years concerning
the moral standards among students
at educational institutions of higher
learning. Some of it no doubt has
been we'll founded, and a great deal
of it has been exaggeration. It is
not believed that Norwich university
has at any time been subject to this
criticism, but there has been, in
common with other institutions,
cases where such criticism might be
warranted. However, whatever the
past may have brought forth in the
way of criticisms of any institutions,
the fact remains that Norwich uni
versity is at this time taking the
lead to establish the highest moral
standard. 1t is an unfortunate ar
gument, or an excuse rather, made
by many young men that high moral
standards are not always evidence
of the highest physical development
and manhood. The fact that Nor
wich is now standing for the highest
standard is the strongest refutation
for any such argument or excuse.
If there is a red blooded school in
the United States it is Norwich uni
versity. 1t is decidedly a mans
school. 1t is a school where red
blood, rather than blue-blue blood,
is recognized. The physical develop
ment, say nothing about the high
intellectual standard, is probably not
excelled by any other educational in
stitution of collegiate grade in the
country.
Now, this is what Norwich has re-
Gently done. At chapel exercises on
January 31st, President Reeves, in a
short talk on moral standards, oc-
casioned by recent case of disci-
pline, intimated that the cadets of
Norwich university should take ad-
vanced ground, and do it in the de-
cided manner in which Norwich has
always done things. After the pres
entation of the matter the entire
corps rose simultaneously as an evil
dence of unanimous obligation "on
the word of honor" of every individ-
ual cadet to enforce the following
principles: ITO refrain to the best
ability from the use of foul, pro-
fame, and obscene language at the
university. "To refrain from in
PRODUCTION or use in any form of in
toxicating liquor at the university,
or at any time while in the uniform
of the college"

DEFEAT GORHAM
Island Pond High School Bas-
ketbalI Team Win from Cor
ham, N. III. High School Team
in IL Fast Game.

Last Friday night in a most eXcit-
ing game of basket ball the I.P. HIS.
boys defeated Gorham High school
by score of % to 81. For a time
Island Pond seemed to be unable to
get any baskets from the floor. tho
she speedily secured five points on
fouls. Then there was a thrilling
moment when basket from the
floor tied the score and at the end of
the half Islard Pond was two points
ahead. The last half started in with
a rush, amidst great enthusiasm;
Island Pond steadily forged ahead,
but near the close .Gorham seemed
to find the basket again and made
three baskets in succession, but the
local team kept the lead throughout
the half.
This victory makes a total of four
games won out of eight played, which
is fine record for a team playing
it's first season of basket ball, especi-
ally since most of the teams met
have played for two or three seasons
at least. The attendance was not as
large as might have been expected,
judging from previous games.

USE FOR MIDDLE AGED MAN
That He Is "Fit Only for the Scrap
Heap" Denied by Chicago
Capitalist.

To cheat the scrap heap Of men
over forty-five years is the purpose of
a committee of Is large employers
recently organized in Chicago with
Benjamin J. Rosenthal a capitalist,
at its head. The committee was or
ganized, Mr.. Rosenthal said, to upset
the fallacious theory that men between
the ages of forty-five and sixty-five
are fit only for the scrap heap"
"Twenty middle aged men whom we
have enlisted will be employed by one
of the largest houses in Chicago" said
Mr. Rosenthal. "The head of this
house, to make an efficiency test, will
put them in the correspondence de-
partment. Alongside of them will be
20 young men and each individual
will get the same work to do.
eff they do half as much work as
the younger men they will be paid half
as much. If their efficiency is equal
to the younger mems they will receive
the same salary. Recently 1 took
score Of experienced middle aged men
and put them to work wrapping par
cells in large concern beside 20 young
men. They did as much work as the
younger and In some instances more"

The Berkeley CampaniIe.

The erection of a 30O-foot campanile
at the University of California, at
Berkeley, Cal, has been delayed by
the lack of data on this character of
building. This project has been under
way for long time, and the unusual
nature of the work required that the
builders should study up previous ex-
periences of this kind and the result
was that designers and builders were
unable to find much that would be Of
value to them in the present case.
The campanile has been completed at
last, and 1T Is thought to be proof
against earthquake shock. 1t is Of
steel and REINFORCED concrete, with a.
facing Of granite. 1t is 303 feet high
and 81 feet wide at the base.

PiIurin1s War Victims

Mohammedans from the Malay ar
chipelago, who went on pilgrimage to
Mecca to worship at the shrine of the
prophet and thereby earn the title of
'hadji" which cOnfers lifelong distinc-
ton and eternal bliss hereafter, are
destitute and stranded in Arabia.
They are the victims of the severance
of communications brought about by
the war, and a representative of the
Dutch government is being dispatched
to the port of Jeddah to superintend
their embarkation in special ships
which the authorities are solicitously
sending thither to convey these colon
ial subjects home. About 1000 such
pilgrims were similarly repatriated
last year.
