NEW YORK, Oct 11.-For the first
time in the history OF the Columbia
Law School. tire school has opened
an academic year with woman in
structor. Miss Mabel Z. Witte has
been appointed an instructor of law

this fall, not exactly as part of the

OF extens CT teaching. Significance
is attached to the appointment as a
big step in the long fight to secure
the admission of women as students

is made in some quarters at Column
bla that women will shortly be ad-
m.tted to the regular courses OF the

The unprecedented appointment of
a woman instructor is directly due to
the war The new course is said to
be of especial value to women left
during the war to manage their own
affairs or to act in place of men. 1t
is "for persons, whether engaged in
sacramento work, business, social
work, or of no definit occupation, who

SECRECY AT WASHINGTON
George Merriam Tells Of Govern.
ment Printinq

George +. Merriam, who was a com
positor in the Register office twenty
years ago, and who is now employed in
the government Printing office at Wash
ington has been enjoying a month 5
vacation at his home farm in Addison
and was an interested visitor at The
Register office last Monday. Mr.. Mer-
riam, although in his 18th year, is en-
pIoyed at the Government printing of
tice IN making what are called Depart
mental Corrections or alterations in
copy which theIdepartment heads order
after the printers have submitted their
first proof Mr.. Merriam says that the
habit among departments of changing
their mind is so well developed that in
the Government Printing office they
have TO keep POO or more men busy on
the changes they make.
One new feature of the work since the
war began has been the unusual safe
guard for secrecy. All orders and
communications of the war and navy
departments and other confidential
printing is 80 hacked up and divided
among so many different compositors
that it would be a Chinese puzzle for
any one worker or small group of work
ers to piece the information together to
make sense Immediately that the
matter is assembled the proofs of it are
filed in vault and the only extra copy
is delivered under seal to the responsible
Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1917-09-07

Up to within a short time of his
death Fredette, although practically all
of his body was paralyzed, was con.
scous and talked with his mother Mrs.
John Fredette, who had been at his bed.
side most of the time. He had talked
a great deal Of his comrades and when
the regiment was broken up with the
departure of large portion of it for
Massachusetts, he, realizing he would
never be able to acco. pany it was
greatly affected
His case was practically hopeless from
the time he entered the hospital with
| injuries sustained when he 'dived into
shallow water while swimming in Lake
Champlain on August >. At the hos
pital when it was determined that his
neck was broken delicate operation
performed for the removal of part of
the vertebra, but the surgeons realized
that at best this would only give him
few weeks of life The paralysis grad
ually spread and on Sunday he practi-
cally lost consciousness
Fredette, who was the son of Mr..
and Mrs John Fredette, would have
reached his 10th birthday the 18th of
next month, He enlisted in Company
|, of BrattleboJo just prior to the de-
parture of the First Vermont for
Mexican border service, his brother
Warren Fredette of Brattlehoro, being
at that time sergeant in that Com
pany and since discharged.
He is survived by four brothers and
five sisters, in addition to his parents.
The brothers being Roland of Drews-
vile, N, H, Fred and Harry of West
moreland, N, H., and Warren of Brat
teboro. His sisters are Mrs. Arthur
Bissette and Miss Eleanor Fredette of
Mddehury and Mrs. w. A. Shaw and
Mrs. Arthur Grover of Brattleboro.
Military honors were paid by the
soldiers at Fort Ethan Allen when
Fredette's body was removed the
hearse being surrounded by four guards
and conducted along Officers Row out
of the Reservation, accompanied by the
Second Cavalry band. While the pro-
cession passed down the highway, sew
eral hundred medical men who were
drilling on the parade ground stood at
attention and the National colors were
brought to half mast

Union Services

The Memorial Baptist, Congrega-
tional, and Methodist churches are
planning another series of union ser
vices similar to those which proved so
helpful last year. The first of these
services will be held in the Methodist
church next Sunday evening at 1880.
Rev. Roy f. Whttemore, pastor of
Memorial Baptist church will preach.
The second of the services will be held
in Memorial Baptist church on Sunday
evening. September %, when Rev.
George w. Peck, jr., pastor of the
First Baptist church of Rutland. will
be the preacher of the evening. The
offerings which are taken at the union
services will be used to defray expenses
of out-of-town speakers.
