the University Of Vermont, and the let.

With these facts in mind, the matter
was followed up and an attempt was
made to trace the handwriting Of the
original letter. Through these methods,
Roy Jones was finally reached. and II
was discovered that his handwriting was
very much like that Of the letter. Also,

two hundred dollars of good U. s money
TO spot designated by map and place
secured to stake.
Try no treachery with your following
of these instructions and we will do only
that which We say.
Failure on your part to comply with

to kill your cattle or to burn your un.
inhabited buildings during the winter

 Extravaganza in dress must be checked among the schoolboys and girls, manifested in many ways, but especially in the purchase of silk hosiery, silk shirts, neckties and ex- pensive footwear. To this end we recommend that school principals and teachers insist upon reasonable econ omy and modesty in dress and with appeal to parents and pupils to CO., operate in an effort to check such ex- travagance."
