EAST MONTPELIER
Musical Convention This Week Great
Success.

Whether it rains and pours, whether it
SHOWS and blows, or If perchance all ma
ture wears smiling face, the crowds
come every year to the musical conven-
ton, and this year proved no exception
to the rule. Every train on Thursday
brought new arrivals, while single teams
and double teams from neighboring
towns wendell their way through the
drifts, over or around them. Never did
a happier company ever assemble in the
village hall and never did they get down
to business any more quickly or easily.
The rehearsals from the very beginning
were profitable and enjoyable. The mat
inee on Friday afternoon was especially
fine. The applause that greeted each new
number and the frequent encores ex-
pressed the appreciation of the delighted
audience. We missed some of the pleas
ant features of former years and some
well-remembered faces. We were glad
to see Miss Sylvia Bliss of Calais and to
listen again to the wonderful melodies
that flowed from her skilled and gifted
fingers. The grand chorus in the even
ing surpassed the triumphs of previous
years. Too much cannot be said in
praise of the talent represented and the
skillful direction of the leader, Charles
r, Dudley. This is the 10Th time he
has lead the chorus and never with great
er success than on this Friday evening.
The complete program is herewith given,
for without it any description would be
inadequate and fragmentary: Chorus,
"Honor and Love to Soldiers Give; solo
Mrs. A. T. Green, "Cradle Song, 1915"
Fritz Krissler), "Mignonette" II.
p. Weckerlin); chorus, ''Where Are You
Going My Pretty Maid?" (Caldecuttl
solo Mrs. F. H. Bellows, "The Spirit
Flower" Campbell Tipton), "Deep River"
arranged by H. T. Burleighl; chorus,

Inglis, Celeste "Aida" &c. Verdi,
"Jocelyn" GODDARD chorus, "Hark the
Lark" (Cucken; duet, Mrs Bradley and /
Miss Wood, Passage Birds FAREWELL; /
solo w. B. Lance, IF l Were King"
"Once Again / Would Gaze" from !

Morning" tH. Warel; chorus, "Hallelu
jah" Handel; pianists, Mrs. X. L.
Cleaves of Montpelier and Miss Edith
Morse of Barre.
The ladies of the East Montpelier
grange catered most satisfactorily to the
wants of the hungry multitudes. Din
ners and suppers were furnished both
days and the luscious, appetizing food
so abundantly furnished gave proof of
these ladies' culinary skill and their hos
pitable intentions. The midnight supper
at the close of the concert was the crown
ing masterpiece. All the tables were
lavishly furnished with tempting delec-
tables suited to every taste. Last but
not least came the ball that brought to a
happy conclusion the most pleasureabe
and successful event of the new year.

CONSTITUTION MAY CAUSE
FRICTION WITH Y. S

Washington, Jan. 25.-F'uture re-
lations of the Mexican de facto gov
eminent with the United States may
be materially affected by the manner
in which the suggestions of Secretary
Lansing regarding the proposed radi-
cal changes in the constitution are
received by General Carranza and the
members of the constituent congress
now in session at Queretaro
The protest delivered to the foreign
office in Mexico City against incor
poraton in the new constitution OF
provisions limiting property holdings
Of foreigners and providing for other
restrictions of the rights of foreigners,
was made after the receipt at the state
department of numerous complaints
from Americans with property in
Mexico. Enactment of such consti-
tutlonal provisions may prove cause
for diplomatic entanglements, not only
with the United states government but
with other governments whose nation
ais have invested In Mexico
Secretary Lansing's protest against
the adoption of provision for con-
fiscation of property was based on the
proposed article in which 1t is stated
Private property shall not be
N'iH'u lol Dubtf pun pOStS WITHOUT
compensation. The need or utility of
such seizure shall be determined by
the proper authority, but in the event
of any disagreement as to terms the
appropriation shall be carried out by
the judicial authority"
Further basis for protest was found
in a continuation of the article read
ing:
Civil and commercial corporations
may own urban property and manu-
featuring or Industrial establishments,
either within or without inhabited
places; they may also own and ex-
plot mining properties and those con-
tanning oil or other subsoil substances,
as well as railroad and pipe lines, but
theN may not own or administer in
their own right rural properties in an
area greater than that absolutely nee
essary for the accomplishment of the
purpose for which they have been
created. The executive shall in every
case determine this area"
Protest against another article was
caused by the addition to the old con-
provision that there shall
be no private or government monopo-
lies of any. sort" of the words nor
exemption from taxation" This addi-
ton was aimed at concessions almost
all of which have in them provision
for certain exemptions for varying
periods.
Objection to change in the pro-
visions for the expulsion of foreigners
was caused by phraseology that ap-
pears to permit Of no opportunity for
the accused to show cause why he
should not be expelled. The proposed
publication reads:
The executive shall have the ex-
elusive right to expel from the repub-
