Reports That Middlebury College Has

Attention IS called to the gift Of the
late Joseph Battell a Middlebury alumnus
and trustee, to the United States govern
mont of 1880 acres of Vermont forest land
tor the purpose of a national park This
land is situated in Lincoln and Warren, on
the main ridge of the Green mountains.
Tie Long Trail of the Green Mountain
club extends the entire length OF the tract.
President Thomas suggests much larg-

If the United States accepts this de-
wise and establishes a national park in Yer

our mountains, approachable at three
points both from the east and from the
west from three main highways over passes
of the Green Mountains easily accessible
therefore to all travellers by our main
north and south state roads, is something
which should appeal to every patriotic
Nermonter, and one might expect that the
project would commend itself to lovers of
natural beauty and of the great outdoors
throughout the entire nation. Middlebury
college would render a notable public ser
vice II II could assist in any way toward
the establishment of such a park"
That part OF the report concerning the
college shows clearly the healthy growth
OF the institution. Attendance, exclusive
OF the summer session, has increased in
the past eight years from 222 to 372, an in
crease of 90 per cent The problem now
confronting the college is not to secure
attendance, but to provide adequate facil-
tiles and endowment.
In the past eight years 2l4 acres of land
and nine buildings with a total value of
S463, 547 ID have been added to college
property. but the rapid growth of the
college demands still larger facilities and
larger endowment. New professorships as

The administration offices Of the college
are scattered about in number of differ
ent buildings. For the convenience of all
| concerned these offices should be closely
grouped, and because of its central and
commanding location, the old chapel should
be used Tor this purpose In order to do
this many classes now reciting there
would have to be moved elsewhere and an
other new building is necessary.
President Thomas suggests therefore a
building known as Vermont Hail. to be
devoted to those studies of special impor-
tance to the college as Vermont insti
tuition, and to symbolic its loyalty to the
state to which 1t owes 50 much, and tc

Microbes to Kill Horses.

Washington, Sept 23.-"How Ger
mans shamefully abuse and exploit
ed" the protection of the United
States by secreting in the German
legation at Bucharest, after thu
American Government had take1
charge of Germany's affairs at thu
Rumanian capital, quantities of pow
erful explosives for bomb plots ant
deadly microbes with instructions TO!
their use in destroying horses ane
cattle, was revealed today by Sec
retary Lansing.
1t was another of Mr.. Lansing's Sc
ries of disclosures of German intrigue
made public without comment in the
same manner as the Won Luxburg tel
egrams which have brought Argen
tina on the verge of war with Ger
many, the Won Eckhardt letter from
Mexico City and the Won Bernstrof
telegram asking the German foreign
office for authorization to spend $50,
900 to influence Congress.
The Latest Story.
The latest story is told in a re-
port to the State Department from
William Whiting Andrews, secretar!
of the legation at Bucharest, and
letter from Foreign Minister Parum
baru of Rumania.
Parcels and boxes taken into the
German consulate at Bucharest will
display of great precaution aroused
the suspicious of the Rumanian Gov
ernment. On August 27, 1916, the
evening prior to the date of Ruman
las declaration of war, some of the
cases were tak.l to the German le
cation, located in a different building
from the consulate. Convinced thai
the boxes were not taken away from
the legation by the German dl
plomatic mission on its departure
from Bucharest, the Rumanian au
thorities later ordered til police tt
find and examine their contents. The
police communicated with American
Minister Vopicka, then in charge O.
German interests, who reluctantly as
signed Secretary Andrews to observe
the search. The boxes were fount
buried in the garden of the German
legation.

"a travelling salesman, newly wed,

He had boasted of his popularity,
particularly at the hotels, to his wife.
