VERMONT NOTES

The government has asked for the
enlistment of ten photographers from
Vermont for official work.
There passed through Island Pond
recently a train load of mail from
Canadian boys overseas to Montreal.
The train consisted of fifteen box cars
and two mail cars. A steamer land
ed at Portland and the mail was sent
via the Grand Trunk to Montreal.
George P. Eastman and Percival w.
Clement, of Rutland, have paid to
the Vermont Marble company about
$685. $3.50 as a settlement of litigation
over a boundary line between their
adjoining marble properties at West
Rutland in which the parties have
been involved for some time.
When the 18th sale of registered
Holstein cattle closed last week at
Brattleboro 95 head had been disposed
of for an aggregate of $21, 2O5. This
is an average Of over 1923 each, which
is high average when it is consider
ed that about so per cent of the ami
mails were yearlings and calves.
John M Comstock, statistician of
the Congregational conference of
Vermont, has completed his figures
for the year 1917 and has sent them
to National headquarters. In the
21O churches in the state there are
%, 229 members, a gain Of 100 over
1916. The membership in the Sun
day schools is 1928, an increase Of
1874. But there is a decrease in
membership over 1916 of 412 in the
young peoples societies and 55 IN
organized mems and bows societies.
The gifts to the UNCONVENTIONAL So
cieties have decreased from $35,797
to $34,942 but gifts to causes not as
ISOLATED with the denomination have
increased so the total benevolences of
the year are $4910 more than in 1916
The churches report home expenses
at $238,327, which is $16,12O less
than in 1916. The valuation of the
church property shows an increase

The following letter is from Ariel
w. Gardiner to his parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. H. M. Gardiner of Barton. The
truck train began it's journey from
Colgate Creek, Md, near Baltimore:
Wilmington, Del,
April 6, 1918.
Dear Folks:
Just a line tonight. 1 am all o.
X. and hope you are the same. We
are here for the rest of the night. 1t
is near one o'clock and we are ready
for bed. We stay here in the Y. M.
C. A. Gym and had supper in the
SWEETEST hotel in the city, the Dupont
House, owned by the Dupont Powder
company, and some feed, too, the
best in three weeks.
Believe me, we are tired. The
roads are very rough and the trucks
are heavily loaded and handle awful
hard. We make Philadelphia to-
morrow before one o'clock and will be
in the Third Liberty Loan parade.
our train and few small ones, also
When we are running we take up
about five miles. We run about $50
feet apart, so we cover some space.
When we are standing still we cover
one and one-quarter miles so you can
imagine how we attract attention. All
the people in the country are out to
see us go by.
Well, I will probably not be able to
get home before we sail. We are en-
route for Hoboken, N. j., and that is
the largest government shipping port
there is, so you see we may go at
once as soon as We get there. Well,
goodbye. From,

Vermont Health Report.

That Vermont is very healthy
state, one of the healthiest in the
Union, is shown by the figures that
are being compiled for the year 1917
at the office of the secretary of the
board of health. During that year,
there were only % deaths from ty-
phoid all over the state, and every
known case of the fever was brought
in from outside the state or con-
tracted from someone who did bring
it in. Besides almost eliminating
death from typhoid, the number of
deaths from tuberculosis was reduced
to 269, with one exception the lowest
ever recorded. In orher ways the
state shows great improvement in
health.
One thing amiss is that Vermont in
1917 showed a woeful falling off in af-
lection for the opposite sex. Last
year there were but Ats marriages
as compared with 5,279 the preceding
year.
Another important thing is that
there was a big falling off last year
in the number of births over the pre-
ceding year. The number during
1916 was 1906 while last year it went
down to 1858. Of this number 1890
were males and 1873 females. AS to
deaths, there were not SO many last
year as during the preceding year.
In 1917 the number of deaths was
1922, while in 1916, it was 5,695.
There were IS suicides during the
year. Twenty-three were committed
by the use of firearms and Ia by
hanging. Next in popularity came
poison, of which there were Is. Other
means of committing suicide were
two by asphyxiation, eight by drown
ing and five by stabbing or cutting.
Rutland county had more suicides
than anywhere else, with II. Chit
tenden had ten, Windham six, Wind
sor seven, Washington seven, Orleans
Franklin three, Essex two, Caledonia
five, Bennington one, and Addison
three. There were none in Grand
Isle.
Of the contagious diseases measles
far outclassed anything else, with
total of 1O,426, but of these only 70
cases of scarlet fever, of which 10
were fatal. Other contagious dis
eases were anthrax two, diphtheria,
poliomyelitis 172, septic sore throat,
1853, small pox &c, tuberculosis of the
lungs 262, and typhoid 14O
Some of the principal causes of
death were cancer, which showed a
slight Improvement, being 1872 as
against -413 in 1916; polomyelitis IS,
meningitis nine, scarlet fever 10, sep
tic sore throat nine, tuberculosis in
other forms than the lungs so, whoop-
ing cough 81, diphtheria 27, influenza
1873, and pneumonia 391, nearly hun
dred more than in 1916.

moved to this village. Last Septem-
Der this young woman entered the

ing the teacher training course. 1t
was while thus engaged that she was

was performed. After six weeks of
illness she was brought to her home
in this village in a much weakened
condition, suffering from peritonitis:
During her illness, all that medical
skill and tender nursing could 90,
was done, but she failed gradually
until the end came.
About three years ago she united

The funeral, which was largely at
tended was held at the Methodist
church Tuesday, Mar. 26, Rev. Paul
Reynolds, pastor Of the Presbyterian
church, officiating, assisted by Rev.
H. E. Howard, pastor of the Method
list church. Her pastor spoke i'm
pressively and referred to the beauti-
full life of the departed as an illustra-
ton of the kind of character which
will stand the test. There were many
choice flowers. In memory Of the de-
ceased a memorial service was held
at the state normal school, Johnson,
March %, in where she was = student
when taken i'll.
Besides the large circle of SORROW
ing friends, she leaves her parents,
MI. and Mrs. T. w. Silver, three
brothers, John, Robert and Philip
Silver Of this place and two sisters,
Mrs. Agnes Johnson Of St. Johnsbury
and Belle A. Of this place. Burial
was in Greensboro cemetery.
