was not too early for Barre to rouse up
at $3.50 o'clock Monday morning and cele,
brate, and so far as reported it was the
only Vermont city to celebrate at the
time the news came. This is good il
lustration of the wide-awake progressive
spirit of Barre citizens. Incidence and
procrastination can never be charged to
Barreites, and thereby is shown the spir-
| it that has made Barre the liveliest city
! in Vermont, and one of the noted indus
trial centers in New England.
One of the first Barre boys to receive
an honorable discharge as the result of

vate Zanleoni told his father he had re-
ceived his honorable discharge, along

returned to Newport, r. l., yesterday,
after passing a brief furlough at his
home here.
