Barton Academy and
Graded School

Visitors for the week were Mrs. w.
H. Gilpin, Mrs. w. D. Gilpin of West
field, Mrs. C. A. Crosby of Orleans,
Mrs. Robert Watkins, Mrs. Ora Car
on, and Miss Lois Hawkins of St.
Johnsbury.
The basket ball game with Crafts
bury academy ended rather disas-
trously for our team with score of
43-3 in favor of the visitors. Never
theless the boys have good spirit and
being the first year at basket ball
since Parker Barrows and Clyde
Heath were in school, the fellows are
really only learning the game Quite
soon, with practice and coming lively
games that are scheduled before the
close of the. season, the team will
give good account of itself.
There was baseball practice in the
cage Thursday after school.
The Norwich University Glee Club
concert will be given at Seaver's this
evening at 8 o'clock. There are 25
fellows in the company. Word has
come from several of the neighbor-
ing towns where the club has given
concerts that the entertainment by the
COlIeSe lolIOWS Is VI LISH SIdOc dIlu
most enjoyable. After the concert
there will be dance.
We know that sophomore recep-
tion is due to come off some time be-
fore the 18th of June when school
closes, but the many meetings that
that class has had lately have produced
only one result we really know about
and that is noise. President Drew
says he'll have reception soon even
if he has to eft" every one in the
class.
The basket ball team met defeat at
Lyndon Monday at the hands of Lvn-

GET EXTRA NUMBER.
Missed Train Connections. Give Bar
ton Ticket Holders Extra Enter
tainment.

Barton Improvement Club lecture
course ticket holders were gamers by
the storm of Saturday when Laurant
the magician, missed train connec-
tions and could not reach Barton for
his schedule Saturday evening, al
though he did appear Tuesday eve
ming.
The Redpath bureau by wire
stopped one Of their entertainers on
that evening, nearly two hours late,
and all are high in praise Of the en-
tertainer and of the Redpath bureau.
John B. Ratio was the entertainer
Barton gained.
1t is the opinion Of many that Mr..
Ratio was the most versatile reader
who ever appeared before a Barton
audience. His impersonation of
Kipling's "Gunga Din," was the mas
terpiece of the evening, but all his
numbers were especially good and
most enthusiastically received
On Tuesday, the new dating given
Laurant, a large and enthusiastic
audience greeted the magician. This
was Mr.. Laurant's second appearance
before Barton audience and every
one is enthusiastic in praises of the
high-class entertainment given last
evening.
Mr.. Laurant is accompanied this
year by trio of young ladies who en-
tertain with instrumental selections
upon the saxaphone and cornet, songs
and readings.
The closing number which Mr.
Laurant termed his silk factory and
which produced many yards and col
ors of beautiful silks from the head
of paper tambourine, finally pro-
duced the American flag in silk across
the entire stage, brought the audience
to it's feet while "The Star Spangled
Banner" was played by the instru-
mental trio.

Of Quimby Post, G. A. R., No. 76
on the death of Comrade Alonzo D.
Folsom.
Whereas the unsparing hand of
Death has reached from the mysteri-
GUS darkness that envelopes life and
removed from our ranks Comrade
Folsom.
In the death of our esteemed and
worthy comrade we recognize the will
of Divine Providence, an illustration
of universal truth that death comes
to all.
Resolved, that we offer these express
sions of sympathy to the afflicted fam
lily consoled by the reflection that after
all life is but small space of time
compared to the time hereafter.
Resolved, that in token Of our re-
spect to the deceased comrade, the
Post charter and flag be draped in
mourning for 30 days.
Resolved that copy of these reso-
lutions be presented to the sorrowing
widow, the children of the deceased
and to the Orleans County Monitor

There are many things a board of commerce can do for Carlisle, and one of them is to work up in terest enough among our people to build system of water works and sewer system. We should have the water works by all means. It would save the people many hundreds of dollars in in- surance ana would save many thousands of dollars worth of property in the event of fire. The burning of the creamery last week should furnish lesson, as small amount of water would have saved the greater portion of that property. The board should get busy on the water works proposition
