VERMONT NOTES

OLD CHURCH At ROCKINGHAM.
There is in Rockingham n pulpit built
two years before tho inauguration OF
PRESIDENT Washington. The meeting
house" that houses the pulpit was built
In 1Is7 and In a very interesting church
building which the residents Of the town
anectionately treasure. The architectural
design Of both the interior and exterior
IL severely simple. Formerly it was easy
OF access to visitors who covered the
white-washed walls with their autographs
and carried away the ornamental spindle
work In the pews and gallery rails as
souvenirs Some time ago the town APP
propriated several hundred dollars to re-
store the interior to its original condi-
ton. The pulpit. which had been cut
down to a modest level. and the sound
ing board removed. has been restored and
raised to it's former position. with wind
Ing stairs leading to it. The spindle work
has been replaced. There are IS windows
in the church, each containing 10 panes
or glass. while the window above the
pulpit has 60 panes. Tho high, square
pews on the floor and in the gallery. ex-
tending around three sides OF the struc.
ture, are built like sheep pens.

School Board viii
Consider Training

A special meeting Of the school board
win be held next Monday evening to
consider the introduction of military
drill in the high school in accordance
with the law passed by the last legisla
ture. This patriotic movement for mil
itary drill was initiated by the boys of
the school. According TO the new law,
high schools are authorized TO secure
competent instructors and to include
military instruction. 1t is entirely OPP
tional with the young men. Credits will
be given as in any study. The means
of securing equipment is somewhat in
definite, MS while the legislators favor
ed military drill Tor high school stu
dents, they failed to apportion any
funds for equipment. However, the
young men of the school having decided
they would like to get the advantages
of the West Point physical exercises
and Of military drill, the subject will
be brought before the directors. 1t is
understood the board Of education fav.
ors some kind of patriotic drill for the
young men but no details have as yet
been worked out.
