NY Summer in Burlington
PAGE -FOUR

wish to describe all the fun VT
had while In Burlington. There is
very beautiful lake, called Lake
Champlain, and wonderful beach,
and every night we would spend
hours bathing. My father and I
know how to swim. but mother was
just learning, and we would dive
under and get hold Of her and duck
her. We took our dog, Jerry, one
night, and he liked it SO well that
often after we had gone to bed
Jerry would start for the lake and
come tack in the morning. dripping
wet hut cool and happy. Father
and ! went fishing and got about
fifteen large pickerels, some weigh
ed five pounds. went out and
sold enough to buy one War Saw
Ing s amp. My Grandma Ollie had
started book for me and was in
q hurry to get it filed.
One Sunday afternoon father took
my uncle and my cousin and me
on a boat, and we went to Platts-
burgh, N. Y. We had a dandy
time
VIII lie in Burlington, we met a
young lady who is an actress, now
play ng in the Hippodrome in New
York. She knew mother when a
little girl at school. She Is a fine
dancer and singer. SO when she
left Burlington, where she was Wis
ting her mother for the summer,
for New York. she insisted upon
mother and me visiting her when
we came to New York.
Later ! will tell OF my visit in
New York Harrison Ollie.

Trapping a Sport

Trapping is a great sport. Many
boys are trapping this year. You
can make lot Of money by trap
ping. I like to trap, myself. The
fur-houses want lot of furs for
the boys over in France. They pay
high prices for them. Skunk, mink,
otter. muskrats. opposum, bears.
wolves, foxes. coons, and wildcats,
and many Others. are fur bearing
animals. Skunks stay almost any
where. They don't dig their own
holes, but take them away from
other animals They eat dead
snakes, rats, mice. birds. chickens.
insects, and other dead things.
There are short striped marrow
and broad) skunks and black
sksnks. They stay under old
houses. stumps and brush piles.
Their fur is not prime until it Is
pretty cold. The minks, offers and
muskrats stay in the water and ON
the land both. They stay pretty
close to corn fields. They like corn
very much. They build their dens
along the rivers and you can some
times see their tracks close to
their dens. You want to be care
full when you set your traps for
them. Wash your tracks after you
have your traps set. Their fur Is
prime when 1t is cold. The oppos-
sums stay under trees in the
ground. The eat almost anything.
Cover your traps up good when you
set them. Some animals can smell
rust There is animal bait, and it
will draw animals from far and
ground. They eat almost anything.

On January 6, 1412, Jeanne dare
was born, and the very house is
standing now which was built per
haps many years previous, even to
that date In front of the house
stands beautiful marble statue of
her that was sent from England.
In the room near the entrance on
the ground floor stands a bronze
statue given in her memory by the
Princess of Orleans, and an earlier
one, given by King Louis XII, on the
same floor In this same room
where several other statues have
been placed stands the same old
fireplace, around which the family
sat during the long winter months,
colder and bleaker in old Lorraine
than any other part of France, with
very little thought Of the fame that
was to come to their youngest
daughter.
Leading from the big room, one
steps into the little room straight
to the right and finds it to be Jean
mes own room, with its big double
window looking out into the gard
en-. There is no furniture in her
own little room, and the bare stills
which hold up the upper floor show
much age-and the same big dou-
BILE window fran still stands, al
thought framed in with screen to
keep the tourists from cutting off
souvenirs.
The next day I travelled the road
which was the very road that
Jeanne d Arc and her family used
when they fed to Neufchateau to
escape the marauding band Of An
tonic de Vergny, the governor of
Champagne, who espoused the Eng
lish cause. You can see Americans
treading over the road which leads
to the north and on which the Maid
of France set out for Vancouleurs
to beg the aid of Sire de Bandri-
court for her high adventure. Most
every one feels that they are about
to tread on holy land as they follow
the footsteps Of this little girl
whose home is the shrine of France.
Interesting as the birthplace, lit
tie church and rustic little hamlet
are, l did not stop at that Far !

days, and where the big beech tree

flock Of sheep which was left to
herd. There stands the Basilique
La Portal an elegant structure
built by the French army and navy
in her memory. The Basilique was
started before the present war and
is almost finished, but work on it
was stopped at the outbreak Of war.
Many wonderful statues and ban
ners donated by proud cities OF
France, where little Jeanne had
gained career are to be seen all
through the church.
AS person enters this building,
a masterpiece OF masonery, on the
right is bronze statue OF the
quaint old Nine. Jacques d Arc,
Jeannes mother, with her sewing
outfit on her lap and the peasant
father, Jacques d. Arc, on the op-
posite side with his piow lying by
his side. All through the church
are stained glass windows with
history and pictures Of Jean
mes life, but being unable to
read French, that history is more
or less of a guess for me. Then
went up the winding stairway and
entered what we would call the
parlor of the church-and it was
room full of statues and six big
paintings on the two side walls,
which all looked as though the peo-
ple could speak, but owing to the
fact that have so many things to
write about am unable to tell any,
one what they all We're to represent.
After going through the Basi-
lique, we then took the winding
road around the hillside, where one
of the most elegant views of the
valley could be seen; and admired
the greenness of the grass in the
valley in which the Mouse river
made it's many winding curves
along with the rich autumn
colorings on the hill across
the valley, several miles away. 1t
seemed like a dream of a beautiful
painting, but it was all natures
work The air was so clear that
one could see many miles away:
ana Whlie standing on TINS Mill |
counted six little villages scattered
in many directions and several kilO-
meters( or miles) away.
About half way up the hill on the
way to the Basiliqne stands the cru
cifix of Christ (life size) which had
stood in the lonely spot for several
centuries. There were four darling
little French girls, age about five
years old, making mud pies-and
just having the time of their sweet
young hives, and not realizing that
they lived near such historical
place, a place that people from all
parts Of the world have visited.

Mouse circling around, which ad'

The mission of Jeanne d. Are
who was born here in this obscure
little hamlet of the Lorraine marsh
es, was to lead her country, sore
oppressed by foreign rule. sore be-
set by internal strife, to liberation
and unity
1t seemed. as if her work was
thought of as something impossi
BILE for such young girl to accom-
plish, and her vision and plans had
to be repeated over and over, until
she convinced many of the disin.
terested people of her mission. 1t
was she who gave to the French
the vision of a united and restored
nation, free from foreign domino
ton; making the nation wholly
France. Jeanne's work progressed
because OF her good faith in God
She expressed her thoughts: ut is
my Lords will that the Dauphin
should be king and receive the
kingdom in trust, in
trust for the King OF Kings"
Within a few doors of La Maison

her home Is called and means in
English, the home of Joan of Arc)
stands the little church called Egg
lise paroissiale, where the little
maid was baptised and where for
long hours, she used to implore the
aid of her sanity trio, the great St.
Michael and SITS. Marguerite and
Catharine, the martyrs who sent
her forth on the quest that ended in
her own martyrdom.
On the inspiring windows of
stained glass, which have been ad-
ded since her own days, one can
read her history from the time
when under the great beech tree on
the hill beyond, she heard the
voices calling her, to the time
when reviled and discredited, she
was led to the stake and burned
at Rouen in 1431. But with her
faith in God and with the knowl-
edge that she had led her armies
to victory at the battle of Orleans,
she felt her work had been &C

Charles MacLeonhardt, a friend
OF the Junior Palladium, and at
present with the American soldiers
in France, has remembered the Ju-
niors, even so far away, and has
written a story for the Junior about
a visit to the home Of Jeanne dare
(which in English means Joan OF
Arc), which he made not SO very
long ago. We are very glad in
deed to receive the story. An ex-
cerpt from the letter and the story
follows:
There are many interesting
things to see in this land-and for
tunately am whiting few miles
OF where Jeanne dare" the hero
Inc OF France was born, and lived;
and thinking maybe that the chill
dren OF the Junior would like to
hear about her wonderful history, !
will try and tell in my own words
Of my visit there and some OF the
wonderful sights that l viewed.

JEANNE D. ARC.
A Visit to Jeanne d'Arc's Home-is
Most Wonderful Siaht in France.

Most Wonderful Stgnt IN france.
On of the most wonderful things
have seen since my arrival in
France was visit to Domremy to
see the birthplace and Fairgrounds
OF Jeanne d. Arc, the little 19-year-
old heroine of France, who had the
inspiration to lead the armies OF
France, and succeeded in her mis-
sion.
Riding for fifteen miles in a jolly
army truck, over winding roads.
with trees so beautifully set on
each side of the highway, added
much romantic pleasure to the trip
then next we came to cross
roads, which told us the direction
to the home OF the Maid of France,
and a FIVE or six mile hike was then
taken at my leisure. The road was
winding, and this along with the
October weather and the trees be-
ginning to show their beautiful con-
trasting colors, made the walk a
much added pleasure. Along to-
wards noon found me standing by
the big iron picket fence which
surrounded the little chateau Of the
brave girl of France.
