friends. This district is one of the larg-
est as regards territory in the state and
includes the town OF Bradford. where Mr..
Clark lives, and also the towns of Fair
lee, Nershire, Corinth and Topsham. One
of the interesting features of this dis
trict is that it has one of the few junior
high schools in the state, located at
Bradford. Supt. Clark speaks highly Of
the work done by this school and believes
it fills real want in the educational sys-
TEN OF the state,
There are doubtless many in town who
do not know that one of our townsmen
is seen on our streets every day and
at work in the blacksmith shop that he
built many years ago, who for three
years, 1862 TO 1865, held the Office of
postmaster during Lincoln's administra
tion. more than fifty years ago. The
postofiice at that time was in one OF the
front rooms of his house, which stood
on the same site as the Beckett block in
which the Office is now located. To such
as do not recognize the man referred to,
we will say that We refer TO our re-
spected father in law, Albert r. Martin,
who, though a Democrat, always was APP
pointed postmaster and served his pat
rons faithfully for three years, during
the Civil war and under a Republican
administration. He was succeeded in
1865 by Calvin r. Ainsworth, who, with
his brother, Adolphus Ainsworth, were
owners of the store that with additions
and changes, is the G. F. McAllister store
to-day.
High school was not in session on the
llth, as the principal, 0. B. Wood, was
called to Montpelier TO attend to the
adjustment of the insurance on his barn
that burned at Georgia several weeks
ago.
Mrs Belle III. Covell is now at work in
the postolfice as clerk. and is relieved
from duty part of the time by her
daughter, Miss Evelyn NJ. Covell, who
has been spare clerk there for over two
years.

class of the NJ. f. Sunday school with

JUDGE STANLEY c. WILSON.

The elevation of Attorney Stanley G.
Wilson of Chelsea, recently speaker of
the Vermont House of Representatives
to position as superior judge is a recog
milton of the younger element in the Yer
mont bar. Judge Wilson is only 81 years
of age, which in Vermont judieiaries is
considered mere youth. He il junior to
the next oldest superior judge by 10
wears, Judge L. r. Slack of st. Johnsbury
being in his 50th year, while Judge +. L..
Fish OF Nergennes is "a, Judge +. M.
Butler of Rutland nearing 63, Judge Zed
a few months short of the three score
and ten and Chief Judge Z. L. Waterman
Of Brattleboro almost rs years of age.
Thus il will be seen that Judge Wilson is
in class by himself as far ais ages rum.
We are confident, however, that his com
parative youth will be no handicap what
ever in his conduct of the affairs which
devolve upon a superior Judge in Yer
mont because Judge Wilson has the
benefit Of good mental heritage and he
has taken every opportunity to develop
that talent through study and close APP
plication to bis legal work. lie has been
a member Of the Vermont bar for IL
years and in the course of that time he
has had a large practice besides having
had the ripening experience furnished byi
two terms as states attorney in Orange
No doubt too, his training in
other capacities, such as speaker of the
House, will serve to his advantage in Civ
ing him broadend outlook rarely vouch- |
safed to men Of his years. Moreover,
Judge Wilson is a man OF upright mental
attitude and possesses much of the So
called judicial temperament. We look
to see Judge Wilson become a capable,
successful and honored member of Yer
monts bench

One thing is certain at least. and that

sociation work on the soil seems to
be popular. The women are putting
their accustomed suffrage initiative
and energy into the organization of
hoe and spade brigades-by no means
neglecting their suffrage work as they
dig and plant.
With the cooperation of State and
Federal authorities, already eight
states are in the vanguard for agri-
cultural work.
Connecticut suffragists are setting
apart patriotic lots" for every rural
and small town league. Upon farm,
eight miles from Greenwich, belonging
to Miss Ryan and Miss Runtz-Rees,
will be established the Fairfield

an eight weeks course in practical
farming and care Of stock is to be
given.
