Tr. vs.. Attorney General. Answer OF
the Town of Brattleboro.
Leave having been granted to inter

boro, by its agent and attorney, Arthur
p. Carpenter. and answers the allega
tions contained in the petition, and the
suggestions made in the memorandum
Of the trustees filed herewith
The defendant refers to the will OF
Thomas Thompson, and the DEGREES OF
this court interpreting the same, ant
makes them a part hereof
The defendant admits that the vii
of Thomas Thompson made the provi
sions set forth in the petitioners bill
but SAYS that in addition thereto il
contains the following provisions:

fund shall be for the immediate re-

en- and shop-girls in Brattleboro and
Rhinebeck, N. Y, shall be expended in
those towns and how much of the in
come not so needed shall be expended
elsewhere.
In answer to this the town of Brat
tleboro says the prayer ought not to be
granted, and it asks that the court APP
point a master, with authority to 90 to
Brattleboro and Rhinebeck and take
the evidence of the parties and their
witnesses, with the authority to exam
inc the books and accounts of the truss
tees and report to the court.
1t is not known just when the court
will give a hearing in this ease, but
doubtless it will be within few weeks
The town fully agrees with the trus-
tees that there is doubt as to their right
to administer the trust 'fund as it is be
ing administered, so no issue is raised
ON that point The town does contend
however, that the trustees should bt
required to administer the trust so as tt
effectually carry out the intention o.
the testator which, the answer says
they have refused to do. Instead, it i
averred that because of the arbitrary
discretion exercised by Richards NJ
Bradley or his agents many beneficial
ries entitled to direct aid have been re
fused it.
1t is the town S position that tn
Brattleboro Memorial hospital need
additional equipment and larger pro
portion of the fund than it is now re
ceiving, and that it is an abuse of dis
erection mot to fully meet these demand
before spending any money outside 0
Brattleboro and Rhinebeck.
The expenditure of money for schoc
nurse work is characterized as the ez
ploitation of certain theories of Rich

went to the edge Of the town and
under the efficient leadership of our
colonel we learned how to act on the
great occasion, and had ourselves
inspected, and passed.
That evening taps blew at $3.50
and in the morning We were reused
out at 2:45, breakfasted at 8 and
were on our way, on trucks, at 4.30.
Day had not begun to show when the
line of trucks moved out Of town.
It was quite procession, each truck
with red tail light and one or two
head lights made torch light pro-
cession some miles long. Our route
of travel led southwest for about
40 kilometers thru quite a collection
of villages to a point near Aigney
lie Due, where we detrained and
marched across the fields to the re-
viewing grounds. We came over a
hill and on the slope beyond we
saw mass and mass Of troops, artil-
EerH. infantry, machine guns, and
signal corps. 1t was grand sight,
$4,000 or 10000 men in formation,
all in overcoats, tin hats, light pack
and the inevitable gas mask.
We were soon in, between the ma
chine guns and the signal corps
then settled down to wait the gem
eral and officers of every rank rode
about, followed by mounted order
lies, some Of them making quite n
show
The machine gun company on our
left was quite interesting. Each
cart is drawn by b mule and they
stood with dropped ears and a

IDENTIFY a fine bunch
A group of horsemen came over a
hill at our right and every one snap
ped into imitation of wooden Indians
as the greatest General we have, fol-
lowed by his staff rode down past us
to the center of the field After the
usual ceremony the general decorated
six of the men in the division for
distinguished service, also decorat-
ed all of the division with ribbons
on which were printed the war rec
ord of the different regiments. We
were then inspected, which took
quite a while, then moved in mass
column in review.
There was consolidated band Of
100 pieces, and the music was grand
could not see how good an appear
ance we made, but from what |
could see, believe the Sixth made a
fine showing as a whole. After the
review the general gave us a few
minutes talk, telling us how proud
we should be to be in the A. E, F..
which is the greatest army ever, and
the best.
About 2 p. m. we entrained again
and started homeward. We took the
long way in order to keep out of
the way of the doughboys and ma
chine guns. We got to see some
new country, in fact, quite a lot Of
it, coming by Is Sur Tile, making
about 100 kilometers. Toward eve
ming it began to rain a little. Back
to Bure about 7 p. M; stayed all
night there and came on here this
morning. What next? Are due for
a move soon, but "Where do we go
from here?" The betting Is to the
Rhine, and that is as good as any.

die OF the week when some OF the
late fields begin picking
Calls for Farm Help.
In the Farm Labor section re-
quests are on the boards for general
farm hands and mixers with wages
at $50 to SIS per month. In addi-
tion to these general calls there are
number for men in the hay fields
where cutting has already begun.
The wages being offered for men in
the hay fields range from SO to 81
per day with board. Farmers are ap-
plying to the U. s. Employment Ser
vice this year in greater numbers
than last and no efforts are being
spared to supply their demands
Help Short in Mills and Woods
From the lumber mills and woods
come calls for men in almost every
line of activity in the lumber indus
try. More than 100 mill and yard
men can be placed at once at wages
running from 81 per day up. There
are also some special orders for plan
er feeders, rachel settlers, doggers,
cutoff men and car leaders, Men
to the number OF rs are wanted at
once to cut and split wood. Ten tie
makers are also wanted at once.
Highway and X. II. Construction
There is strong demand this
week for laborers and teamsters on
a numher of highway construction
sections where the regular wage runs
from 81 to $3.50 per day. For some
reasons laborers do not seem to be
in any hurry to accept this line OF
work, fact that leaves a shortage
on nearly every unit. Railroad track
laborers and steam shovel workers
to the number of 100 can be sent at
once at 40 to As cents an hour
