TOWN MEETINGS TO
Be HELD TUESDAY
Review of Business in Calls
Throughout County
Interest Mainly in License Issue and
Effect Which Women's Vote
May Have This Year

Throughout the county next Tues
day IS Town Meeting day, The Regis
ter has received copies OF the warnings
for each of the % towns in the County
and the city OF Nergennes and finds
that with few exceptions the business
proposed this year is confined to the
usual routine matters. such as the
election Of officers, taxation, highways
and license In Middlebury and Brs-
tol the question Of supporting local
bands for the coming year will come
up in Goshen, Panton, Monkton,
Whiting and some Of the other smaller
places, the towns will vote on the estab-
lishment of medical inspection of the
schools, which is already practiced in
most of the towns OF the county, The
question OF adopting uniform systems
.oi accounting will also be voted upon in
Goshen Monkton, Leicester and some
other places which have not fallen in
in line in this respect
The City Of Nergcnnes will consider
the establishment of a sinking fund
for the purpose of improving its water
supply, and the town Of Bristol will
vote on a proposition to provide money
for prizes at an agricultural fair to be
held next fall for the exhibition Of art
iclcs OF food produced by the boys and
girls of Bristol
The support Of public library work
will he on the program of business in a
number of towns, notably Middlebury,
Whiting, Shoreham and Monkton,
The license question is identical on
all of the warnings as follows;
Shall license be granted for the sale
of Intoxicating liquors in this town"
"Shall license OF the fifth class be
granted in this town."
The only places in the county which
voted for license last year were Shore
ham and Nergennes, though in a num-
ber of places the issue was close This
year with the women exercising their
voting rights for the first time it is
generally expected that the noes"
will roll up a bigger majority than ever,
In any event, great deal of interest
is being taken in what effect the wo-
mems vote may have,
The official warning Tor the meet
ing in Middlebury is as follows:
The legal voters in Town Meetings of the
town of Middlebuy are hereby warned and
notified to meet at the Town Hall in said
town on Tuesday the fifth day Of March,
