Speakers; Largest Meeting of Its Kind Ever Held
In This Section of State

use, and that the housewives would
do better to use jars and bottles. BY
this method more cans will be avail
able for commercial canneries. The
professor said that fruits and vege-
tables could be dried and preserved
in that manner, but that canning was
more satisfactory method.
Economy was urged by the speaker
She said that economy means spend
ing wisely for the fullest value re-
ceived." Another method of food con-
servation pointed out was the boy
cotting of immature meats. Let the
lambs, calves and broilers grow to
maturity" she said. Another econo-
my that might be practised, accord
ing to the speaker, was letting ban
quets, afternoon teas, and refresh
ments at social gatherings between
meals cease.
Mrs. Julia Dimock was next intro
duced and won the hearts of the gath
ering with her straightforward,
"homely'' talk. She, too, urged econ
omy asking How can we eat and
waste all this material with compla-
cency, while the men at the front
starve?" Mrs. Dimock compared our
system Of using foods with the meth
| DDS in vogue among the German
housewives. And our wasteful meth
DDS compared badly. She said that
ten per cent of the deaths in Vernon
were due to digestive troubles, as ar
/ example of our habit of overeating
The speaker told of the many mex
pensive dishes which could be made
| from cheap materials and gave somi
! hints as to the making of them. Sht
finished her talk with the reques
that we make the inexpensive food
do the work of the expensive viands.
At the close of Mrs. Dimock's tall
an invitation was extended to the wo
men of st. Johnsbury to become mem
bers of the Vermont Woman's Savin,
Legion.
The business part of the meetin!
included the admission of Mrs. Leol
Rolfe as a new mem Der; and the &C
ton of the club in voting to suspen
the article Of the constitution relat
ing to time of holding meetings, 70
the month of July. This was don
with view to giving up, if it wa
thought best, the July social, and i
it's place holding meeting at whic
practical canning demonstrate
should be given. This meeting,
held, will be held as soon as it ca
; be practically arranged. The meet
, ing was arranged by the executiv
board of the club, with Mrs Maud

journment all joined in singing til

The spring Of 1915 followed a bum

the fact that the reaction Of the poor

INDUSTRIAL
FAIRMONT

A beautiful new five story building
has been designed TO grace the Hay
mond property on Locust avenue and
it will probably be erected this fall or
next spring. The building will house
garage on the lower floor, with the
workshop in the basement, while the
upper floors will DO devoted to large,
roomy apartments. Care will be taken
to have the floors and walls Of the
building sound proof in order that the
flat jewellers shall not be disturbed by
the work in the repair shop on the
ground floor. The lot on which the
building will be erected is triangular
in shape ard the designing Of the build.
ing to fit the lot and to economic
space presented some difficulties,
which however, were finally overcome
by Architect C. H. Snlder and the build
ing as proposed will be very beautiful
and well arranged. 1t is thought that
the land whereon the building is to
stand is rich in coal and a test hole is
now being sunk to determine the depth
Of the coal which will all be removed
before the building Is constructed and
1t is hoped to begin the operation Of
the mine within a short time. The
operations are being conducted by
Mrs. Josephine Raymond for her
daughter, Kate Preston Raymond, who
owns the property.

ROOT Tells RUSSIA
WHY AMERICA Fights
Speech to Petrograd Au-
dience Was Enthnsias-
ticaIly Applauded.
By Associated PressI

pETRoGRAD, June 23.-Declaring
that the United states was going to
fight until the world was made safe
for democracy, Elfhu Root, head of
the American mission, made his first
appearance here today. Mr.. Root
spoke to q large and enthusiastic
Russian audience gathered under the
auspices Of the Russian.American
committee for Industrial and econom-
ic reapproachment recently organized.
Several speeches voicing the ap'
probation Of the coming Of the mis-
sion were made BY members Of the
society. The chief Of these was that
Of N. A. Pokroysky, president OF the
organization, who INTRODUCED Mr..
Root. He outlined the causes which
induced America 10 enter the war.
"Cheered, encouraged and made
enthusiastic by the freedom won by
Russia, who was 10 become our ally
and friend, we entered the war" saia
Mr.. Root, land we are going to fight
until the world has been made safe for
democracy-yours as well as ours
so no overbearing military caste shall
push you or us of the sidewalk"
He said Americans had turned
from the paths Of peace "ungrudg-
ingly ami unstintingly, but with &C.
ton so that the new republic Of Rus
sia may be great with achievement,
side by side with the old republic. f"
He appealed to Americans for more
optimism and greater faith in Rus
sian democracy, such faith as in
spired the forefathers when fighting
for American liberty.
The speech was interpreted SEN
tence by sentence and aroused the
greatest interest, his peroration be-
ing loudly applauded. The mission
left last night for Moscow, intending to
return to Petrograd early next week.
