Salvation Army Needs Help

The Salvation Army appeals to all
discharged soldiers and sailors to form
organizations in several Addison Coun-
ty towns for the Home Service Fund
Campaign of the Salvation Army from
Nav 1926.
The Salvation Army believes that
there are EX-Service men i'll every one
of those towns and villages who have
known of its work abroad and at
home. and who willingly form a small
local committee to give all an oppor-
tunity to help the Army on its thirteen
million dollar drive The way to or
ganize a town is for the Ex-Service
men to get together, elect one of their
number chairman, and then select a
treasurer preferably a business man,
who will take charge of all contribu-
tions of money and pledges, and for
ward same to the New England Pro-
vincial Headquarters of the Salvation
Army at Boston, Mass.
As soon as the chairman and treas
urer have been selected the chairman
should at once communicate with n.
B. Crittenden. State Organizer, New
Sherwood Hotel, Burlington, VT, who
will forward publicity material, pledge
cards, etc. for the Campaign.
The towns named as unorganized for
this drive include the following in
Addison County: Bridpodt Corn
wall, Monkton, North Ferrisburg, Or
well, Salisbury, Shoreham, Starksboro,
Weybridge and Whiting.

A Clean Village

To the Editor of The Register:
l am in full accord with the appeal
to the people of Middlebury in your
last issue in regard to the appearance
OF the village
When in walking a short distance
on one of the principal streets, not in
the business section, saw scraps OF
all sorts of paper peanut shells, orange
peel and even paper bag thrown
carelessly on the walk and grass, l
thought no matter how much money,
time and labor are spent in making
tidy the streets and beautifying the
village, in a few days there will be no
evidence of the work done unless each
person, old, middleaged and young
will take care to keep the streets free
from litter OF all kinds.
How is such a disinterested public
spirit in matters by some thought non
essential, to be fostered?
Can it be taught in the schools?
When | see cigarette wrappers with
the street rubbish, judge it must be
children of a larger growth" than in
the primary and lower grades, who
need reminding at is no trick at all
to clean house, the thing is to keep it
clean as my grandmother used to
say

MISS GRAHAM WINS
IN DECLARATIONS

The popularity of the annual Prize
Declarations of the Middlebury High
School was again demonstrated last
Monday evening when the event at
tracted a crowd of townspeople and
many from outside to the full capacity
of the Town Hall. Not only the au-
dience, but a number of the partici-
pants-as is are-appeared to enjoy
the program All ten of the contestants
showed evidence of unusually good
drilling which was this year i'll the
hands of Miss L. NJ Bartlett OF Bur
lington.
Every number on the program which
was printed in The Register last week
was presented without a slip, and when
Principal A. S. Hartman called the
Rev. f. b. Holmes, Robert d. Hope,
and Mrs. P. Z. Mellen to the stage to
award the prizes, everyone recognized
that they faced a difficult task. Mr.
selves felt a little uncertain in their
selves felt a little uncertain in their
decision, but having to arrive at some
conclusion, they presented the winners
in the following order; Miss Margaret
Elizabeth Graham, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs Matthew G., Graham, first
prize of Sl2; Katherine Emma Rob
bins, of Cornwall, second prize of So,
and Mary Pauline Warner of Corn
wall third prize of S. Honorable men
ton was accorded Florence Letitia
Yates and Frank Gilbert Brown, and
could have been extended to almost
every other participant in the program.
Miss Graham's winning recital was
that of "The Going of the White Swan"
which was one of the most difficult
numbers on the program to handle
ably. Miss Robbins had a selection of
similar nature, while Miss Warner and
Miss Yates had humorous pieces which
won great applause. Miss Warner told
the story of mock wedding in the or
phan asylum, while Miss Yates pre-
sented with success selections from
Mark Twains Tom Sawyer.
Frank G.. Brown did well with the
famous story of Lincoln's Gettysburg
address, "The Perfect Tribute, while
Walter L. Grosvenor presented Presi-
dent Wilson's Plan for a League of
Nations.
Mary Frances Caswell Ethel Whit
ney Bingham, Mildred Harriet Park
hill, and Agnes Amelia Pidgeon who
were other participants, were such close
runners up in the contest that many
of their admirers must have felt that
the judges choice was largely dis
tinction without a difference.
