NORTH TROY.
INTENDED for last weekly


Friends of DR.. w. H. White have
been informed by communications
from overseas that he has recently
been promoted from the rank OF cap
tain to that of major, all of which is
extremely gratifying to the genial
Majors many friends in North Troy
and vicinity.
Wallace w. Wakefield, who has
been confined to the house with heart
trouble for IA weeks, and until few
and was unable to make last October
room, is now, his many friends Will
ed. Mr.. Wakefield, whose grit is OF
the never-failing kind, fully expects
to be out on the street again.
The two town safes that were in
jured by the fire of December, 1917,
have been received from the factory
where they were shipped some
months ago for repairs. Town Clerk
Hammond has laid a heavy concrete
base on the west side Of his Office on
which the safes have been placed, and
the same is being enclosed, thus form
ing an addition to the Office of just
sufficient capacity to contain them.
J. T. Regain went to Mansonville,
P. O., Wednesday to superintend the
construction of foundations for new
steam sawmill that will be erected in
that village this winter, by the Man.
sonville Lumber company. The ma
chinery and equipment for the new
building will come from the mill own
ed by the same company, and situated
on the Kings highway, that will soon
be dismantled. It is understood that
the Mansonville Lumber company has
100 acres of timber land, the prod
ucts Of which will supply the new en-
terprise with stock for several years
to come.
A recent issue of the Boston Daily
Post contained a portrait Of Mrs. A.
w. Porter of Wheelock, former res
ident of this village. The item ac-
companying the same announced that
Mrs. Porter is probably one of the
most active Red Cross presidents in
New England, at any rate as far as
skill and proficiency with the needles
go. Mrs. Porter's record accomplish
ment in this line was in knitting a
Red Cross sweater, measuring 261h
inches long and II inches wide in
seven hours. The item adds, "all of
Wheelock declares that Mrs. Porter's
last sweater was made in as fast time
as has yet been known"
Another member of the Grand
Army has passed over. John Ingram
died in Warden, p. c., Dec. 2, aged
nearly 80 years. Mr.. Ingram had been
in failing health for several months
and was unbale to make last October
his regular quarterly visits to his old
friends in North Troy. The funeral
took place at Milton, P. O., Dec. 5.
John Ingram was born in Cranky, p.
@. He enlisted in the LIST Vermont
cavalry from Cabot, and served three
years. He came to North Troy in
1891 and for nearly rs years was a
resident Of this village. He was a
staunch member of Bailey Post, No.
CT, G. A. r. On his removal from
town he carried away a Grand Army
burial marker and an American flag
to be placed on his grave. The de-
ceased was highly respected by every
one. Mr.. Ingram leaves two sons,
Edward and Thomas Ingram, who live
in Montreal. Mrs. Ingram died in
North Troy several years ago.

CHAPTER XVI.
Germany In Wartime.

While the German people have al
ways been In thorough accord with the
kaiser's ambitious project which is so
significantly described by the popular
slogan: Deutschland uber allesI"
when the great war, which was to
achieve Germany's aims, commenced,
II came almost as much as a surprise
to the Germans as 1t was to the rest Of
the world. They knew it was inevl-
table and they looked forward eagerly
to der Tag" but when it arrived the
hustle and excitement, not to say
panic, which developed throughout
Germany was so pronounced hat in
some cases it approached the ludicrouf.
Obviously the people were kept in
ignorance of the plans Of their war
barons in order hat hostilities might
come as a complete surprise to them
and give color 70 the governments
contention that the war was forced
upon Germany.
SO little thought did we give to the
complexities of the political situation
that on Friday, July 81, 1914, my wife
and 1 started off on a motor trip. We
had heard so many rumors of wal
within the previous ten y"nrS that we
saw no roraor why an lie sOlu-
ton should not again be found as it
had always been before.
On our way out the Charlottenburger
Chaussee we passed the kaiser and the
kaiserin driving to Berlin from Pots
dam at about sixty miles an hour, and
there were other indications of ac-
tivity, but we attached little impor-
lance to them.
When we reached Potsdam, how
ever, and saw thousands Of tons Of
coal heaped up between the railroad
tracks which were ordinarily kept
clear, we realized that preparations for
war were being made in earnest and
we stopped to consider whether it
would not be better after all to return
home. Such was our ignorance of war
that we decided that, even though it
were not advisable to motor in Bel
GUM and France, where we were
bound. we might safely plan a tour in
the Black forest In Germany.
We had left Berlin late in the after
noon. In the evening, when we arrived
at Gotha, we found that the younger
walters in the restaurants and hotels
had already left and that the older re-
serves expected a general call the next
day.
The next morning we started for
Frankfort. AS we passed through vii
lage after village, war preparations be-
came more and more evident. Measures
were being taken everywhere to arouse
enthusiasm-young men gathered on
school steps were singing patriotic
songs, students were marching and
speeches were being made in the mar

BIG MUSICAL SPECTACLE-"MY
SOLDIER GIRL"LC0MING

1t will be good news to local thea
tre-goers to learn that manager Crow
ley of the Auditorium has booked for
an early date the gorgeous musical
spectacle my Soldier Girl" This
tremendous success has a score or
more of popular melodies of which the
title song, MY Soldier Girl is the rag
ing hit of the season and is hummed
or whistled as the audience make
their exit. Song hits are not the only
feature in this big musical play, the
Costumes are a fashion show in them
selves, so cleverly are they designed
and the color schemes so perfectly
blended. The scenic beauty of the
first act receives its just praise only
to be o~ut-classed by the ~bewildering
effects in the tableaux-After the Bat
tle-"Somewhere in France. The
clever cast and bewitching chorus
force a laugh or a song encore every
minute. The dancing is a revelation
to the theatre-goer and too much
praise cannot be accorded this bril-
liant musical show which will be
seen in this city in all its merry max
ing.

WONDER PLANE OF BRITISH

In Last Stages OF the War Foe is Com
pletely 0utclassed in Machines and
Flying Ability.

For the first time it is possible, says
a British dispatch. to disclose the Of
fetal details of the remarkable fight
ing aircraft. which enabled the Royal
Air forces to play so notable and con-
elusive a part in the defeat of Ger
many and her allies.
During the last stages of the war
Great Britain had been turning out
large numbers of the fastest and most
powerfully armed aircraft in the
world. The collapse of Germany in
the air was largely due to the fact
that. not only was she confronted
with air forces immensely superior
to her WI in all those personal quail
ties, which contribute fighting NOR
ale, but she was 1t last definitely out
classed in speed. climbing and fight
ing efficiency of the super-air craft
which British inventive genius
brought into the field.
Roughly, the machines employed by
the royal air force on the fghtine
front may be divided into three
classes - reconnaissance machines
heavy bombers and fast fighting
scouts. Regarding the British recon
n%aissance machines, an immense for
ward stride was taken toward the
end of 1916, by the production Of the
