and without remonstrance on the part
Of their parents, or the authorities,
either, there is bound to be day of
reckoning. Just so with the young
man to whom we refer. Had he been
at home where he belonged in late
evenings, he would not have gotten
into trouble, in all probability, such
as necessitated his Incarceration in a
state institution. He suffered through
the neglect of his parents. He was
the one to suffer and not they. He
was condemned and held up to ridi-
cule and for his parents negligence.
They failed to do their duty, and
thereby the prosecuting attorney and
authorities had to interfere. Parents,
are you doing your duty by your chill
dren? Is it fair to them to permit
them to run the streets at all hours
of night? If you think it is, then the
consequences will be on yours and
their shoulders if the authorities take
them in hand and possibly land them
at the institution where they will be
under observation day and night.
Think it over-Poultney Journal.
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1918-05-08

At the outset of the campaign for
the Third Liberty Loan in Orleans
county, this paper asked the question:
"Why is it that Orleans county gives
to the Red Cross and the Y. M. c.. A.
and every other war need so splendid
ly but has thus far failed to measure
up to it's ability when it came to loan
ing Uncle Sam money? The answer
has been given. Orleans county has
spoken magnifcently in over-sub-
scribing the loan allotment of $342,-
900 by more than $4,000. This pa
per is proud of Orleans county and
every town in it because every town
exceeded it's quota. This is record
which upholds our county's splendid
achievements in every task assigned
it, and disproves the statement that
those who have come to us from Can
ada are not taking hold of war tasks
as they should. Our county is said to
have more Canadians in proportion to
it's population than any other in the
state and the Missisquoi vallew has,
perhaps, larger percentage of them,
than other parts of the county, but
the Missisquoi valley took it's appor-
tionment in every town. Col. Emery,
who had charge of the campaign in
the county is to be congratulated for
the splendid work he did. o. w. Hill
of the Federal Reserve bank of Bos-
ton is deserving of the county's
thanks for his untiring Efforts in
presenting the issue to audiences
large and small all over the county,
And last but not least, those men and
women who did the actual canvass
ing in the towns, are to be given due
credit. And finally this paper is
proud to have had some part, be it
ever SO small, in the cause.

ing party started about midnight
Saturday to look for him. 1t was
known that he had been burning
brush the day before on a piece Of
land he owned adjoining the Piper
lot and he went after dinner. It is
thought that the fire had spread from
the Smith lot to the Piper land and
| that Mr.. Smith had gone there to put
it out. He was found dead, lying on
his left side, where a fire had been.
His legs were burned badly from the
shoes to the hips. The flesh was
partly burned from his right hand
while his mustache and part of his
hair was burned off although his hat
also slightly burned. 1t is not known
just what was the cause of his death,
but it is probable that Mr.. Smith fell
to the ground dead from an attack of
heart trouble or that he suffered a
shock and was smothered by smoke in
that helpless condition.
Monday, Apr. 20, fire was discover
ed in the Richford Garment COM
pany's factory: The fire started in
the pressing room and was caused by
an electric fiat iron which was left
with the current on. The southwest
wind was very strong, but by the
splendid work of the firemen and
helpers the fire was confined to the
factory. The building is a total loss
and contained much work that was
ready to send out, beside much ma
terial on hand. The factory employ
ed about forty hands, mostly women.
The building was we'll insured.
George Ploof, aged AZ years, was
electrocuted Apr. % while working at
the top of telephone pole across the
river from the Stevens mills. Mr..
Ploof 'phoned to the mill saying he
wished to work on the wires if the
powed would be turned off. He was
