CUPS OFFERED FOR
BEST CHORAL WORK

DR.. and Mrs. E. D. Collins have offered
a silver loving cup to college chorus
which does the best in choral singing
this year. The contest will be between
the men and women and will probably
be held about the time of Junior Week
next spring.
Mr.. Bissell, who has charge of the
choral singing, will organize those stud
ents who wish to take part in the con
test into choruses, and will train them
to the best of his ability during the
winter in preparation for the contest
The first rehearsal of the women's
chorus has been held already and about
sixty applicants were present.
Definite plans have not yet been
made for the contest The rules gov
erning the event are to be formulated
by the Music Department of the Col
lege, and will be announced as soon as
Professor Hathaway RECEIVERS from his
illness, so that he may assist in their
formation The judges for the contest
will be from out of town.

OUR ANIMAL ALLIES
IN THE. GREAT WAR

On Wednesday evening, October 10,
Mr.. Baynes will be in Middlebury ana
give his illustrated lecture on The Use
of Animals in Modern Warfare This
is the second number in a course
of lectures and concerts given under
the auspices of Middlebury College
during the fall and winter. Regular
w these entertainments will be held in
the Mead Memorial Chapel; but Mr.
Baynes lecture will be given in the Nc
Cullough Gymnasium, because more
satisfactory arrangements can be made
there for displaying his stereopticon
views.
Last February Mr.. Ernest H. Baynes,
representing The American Museum
of Natural History and Harper's
Magazine, left the United States to
study the part which animals have
PLAYED in winning the Great War. He
visited England, France, Belgium, Ger
many, Austria, Italy, Egypt, and Pales-
tine, and everywhere was given unusual
opportunities for pursuing his studies.
The British War Office was sympa-
thetic and an order was issued to the
effect that Mr.. Baynes was to 60 where
he liked and do as he pleased. Gen
eral Pershing placed car at his dis
posal to facilitate his work in France,
Belgium and Germany, and the Italian
Commando Supreme in Padua extend
ed similar courtesy to enable Mr..
Baynes to see the conditions under
which the animals had to work in the
Alps
Few civilians realize to what extent
animals assisted in winning the war.
They do not know that the English re-
garden their horses as of greater i'm
portance to them than the army OF any
one of their allies; they do not know
that the Italians admit that they would
have lost the war if it had not been
for their mules. Nor is it generally
known that the French so greatly ap-
preciated the work of their war pigeons
that they decorated some of those
feathered heroes with the croix mill
taire, the croix de guerre and even with
the Legion dHonneur or that twenty
five thousand war pigeons died for Bel
GUM in a single day.

Addison County in the Supreme Cour

The two important cases involving
the will of the late William A. Law
renee of Bristol were finally decided in
favor of the executor in a lengthy
opinion read by Justice Miles, Tues
day Mr. Lawrence left more than half
OF his estate of about $4,000 to charit-
able corporations of his home town, in
Guiding all five of its churches the
Lawrence Memorial Library, the Ma
sonic and Odd Fellows Lodges and
the cemetery. $1,000 of his estate was
in California. Some of the eleven heirs
at-law, taking advantage of the Cali
tornia statute, which limits requests
to charitable corporations to one-third
OF an estate, obtained over $4,000 Of
the estate as heirs They then asked
Vermont to decree to them the full
amount Of the legacies Mr.. Lawrence
had willed to each of them. The ex-
ecutor Contended that credit should be
given for what had been received in
California and Judge Frank W futile
OF the District of New Haven decreed
according to the executors request. On
appeal to the County Court, Judge F.
L. Fish, presiding, the decree of Judge
futile was reversed The Supreme
Court has now reversed the judgment
OF the County Court and affirmed the
decree Of the Probate Court and or
dered its judgment certified to the Pro-
bate Court. Charles |. Button of Mid
dlebury and William B c. Stickney of
Rutland were attorneys for the execu-
tor, Mr. ], o. Bottum OF New Haven,
while March NJ Wilson of Randolph
and A. L. Sherman of Burlington rep
resented the heirs
Another important decision was rem
dered in the estate OF Charles N. Hay
ward of Bridport by Justice Taylor,
affirming both the judgment of the
County Court Judge Stanton and the
decree of The Addison District Probate
Court Judge Button. This case had
been in the Supreme Court nearly four
years. Edward H. Deavitt of Mont
pelier was the losing attorney and Col.
Fairbanks of st. Johnsbury the win
ming.
The exceptions in State V. Thomas
W. Fletcher of Bridport were set at
the heel of the calendar for argument
Brown VS.. Bristol Last Block Com
pany was submitted on briefs This is

decision under the Workmen's Compen-
sation Act involving S200S. ]. G.. Page

900 MIDI LETTERS
NEVER DELIVERED

At War Service meeting recently
held at the College, Prof NJ R. Sanford
displayed to the committee a pile of
letters, over six hundred in all, which
had been returned to him during the
last two years. These letters, which
never reached their destination, are to
be forwarded to their owners if it is
possible to find all the correct addresses
This is to show the men who never re-
ceived any letters, or who received only
part of them, that it was not from
lack of thought and earnest endeavor on
the part of the college. Prof. Sanford
has also, a Christmas box which was
packed at Pearsons Hall year ago last
Christmas, This box, filled with all the
good things that made up the Christ
mas packages to the men abroad, had
apparently travelled over France, but
came back to the college recently with
all its contents untouched.

Middlebury was visited last Wednes-
day evening by medieval troubadour
Swung from his neck by scarf was a
lutte, an ancient instrument of twelve
strings giving forth beautiful vibrant
tone somewhat like the harp. He sang
the songs of an older world, many Of
them already old in the days when
Columbus vOyaged to America. Songs
of the people they were, and gathered
from many lands; all poetry of kind
that our modern, sophisticated age has
missed; simple, direct, passionate, stir
ring
This troubadour, who in his twentieth
centudy reincarnation is known as
Thomas Wilfred, is Danish poet and
singer, far better known in Europe than
in the United States In May, 1914,
according to the London Daily Chron-
iCle Queen Alexandra honored Viii
fred, the lutte player, with a command
to appear at Marlborough House on
Thursday night Queen Alexandra
complimented Mr.. Wi!fred on the dra-
matte way in which his songs were
rendered" Those who heard Mr. Viii
fred in the Mead Memorial Chapel of
Middlebury College on Wednesday
evening seemed to feel that Queen Alex
andras judgment may be pretty good
in such matters, after all Certainly
his audience did more than hear his
singing; they lived out with him the
stories that he sang They watched a
little cabin boy hero left to drown and
dying on the deck they danced with
the English lads and lassies on the
green; they marched gayly along be
hind the perky little Joi Tambour.
Thomas Wilfred proved himself to
be one of the very few artists who
without assistance can hold an audience
for an hour and a half His listeners
were in one minute thrilled with ex-
element, in the next made to laugh,
and finally sent home humming a grace
full mnuet from the strings of his price
less, twO-Century- lutte.
