CROWD IS ARRIVING
FOR COMMENCEMENT

The call for a general "come-back"
TO Middlebury for the Victory Com
mencement is being met by an inhuN
of college alumni and friends, with the
prospect that the capacity for accom-
modations both at the college, at the
hotels. and private residences will be
far exceeded. At the Addison House,
where $50 can be accommodated, Pro-
prietor Higgins has had to find accom-
mediation for about 75 other applicants
outside of the hotel and the college is
making arrangements where possible Tor
the housing of guests among private
families. No definite estimate OF the
number of those returning is possible
but it bids fair to be one OF the best
attended events in recent years.
The weather today left much to be
desired. as a light rain and thick log
prevailed this morning, but at noon
/ there was a rift in the clouds and a
little sun which will be just What IS
needed for the class day and review pro-
gram tomorrow. The ground at Por-

Maryland Hen Has Record.

simultaneously with the news from
ValdOsta, Ga, to the effect that a hen
there actually ''laid herself to death
after laying y double eggs in y
consecutive days, comes the news
that Carroll county has the record
of that particular provider of ovulaI
luxuries beaten to FRAGILE.
Mr.. and Mrs. James JET. Tracey, OF
near PatapscO Stationl have an old
common yellow hen, but she lays I'M
usual eggs, If she is 'tyaller" and just
plain chicken. Every other day, she
lays dOuble-yolked eggs, and she has
been doing this all winter The TACT
that she did this thing every other
day probably saved her from the
same fate as the Georgia hen that
died from overwork, keeping up the
strain for too many days IN success
sion
When the double-yolked eggs first
made their appearance ON the Tracey
farm, Mrs. Tracey hesitated about &C
cusing the yellow hen OF double deal
ing, % she had her isolated, AND
proved to her satisfaction that this
particular hen was guilty"

MARRYING SOLDIERS.

The government Is taking notice Of
the tact that many women are trying
70 entraa the returning soldiers into
hasty and iIl-considered marriages.
The motive in many cases il declared
to BE- merely ID desire to profit by the
soldiers Insurance money. lin others
ii il mere iHfatuati6n with anything
linn uniform. That may not be blame
worthy, but it indicates a silly and
ill-trained girl. She should have
some one looking after her. .....
The soldiers will find themselves
4he center OF unlimited admiration
when they set home. The fellow who
didn't 90 will be dead one in society.
It will be sight to see the girls
cluster around the khaki. These
boys will come pretty near having
their pick IL they wish to marry. 1t
win be hard FOR some OF them to keep
their heads from being turned.
Ut will be such relief for the boys
to get back and resume ordinary
social life that any 1wholesome rAmeri-
can girl will look awfully good to
them But they have seen more on
life than when they left the good old
town OF bonneville. Not many will
care to hitch up with vampires and
insurance seekers. They realize also
that they have their way to make in
the world. They have probably ac-
Iquired some worldly prudence. They
will find in old bonneville Just the
right kind Of home-making girls they
ought to have. Chance acquain-
tances they may make on the way may
be very charming, but not So likely to
be a sure dependence. Some one from
the old home town, from the setting
and environment they were always
used to, will usually be more depend
able

AT the Peace Table.

Who shall sit at the table, then, when
the terms of peace are made
The wisest men OF the troubled lands,
in their silver and gold brocade
Yes, they shall gather i'm solemn state
to speak for each living race,
But who shall speak for the unseen
dead that shall come to the coun-
Gil place?
Though you see them not and hear
them not,
They shall sit at the table, too.
They shall thrOng the room where
,- peace is made,
And know that it Is you do;
The innocent dead from the sea shall
rise to stand at the wise mans
And over his shoulder a boy shall
loOk-a boy that they crucifed.
You may guard the doors Of that
council hall
With barriers stronge and stout,
But the dead, unbidden, shall, enter
there.
And never you'll shut them out,
And the man that died i'm the open
boat, -.n
And the babes that suffered worse,
Shall sit at the table when peace is
made, ...,
BY the side of martyred nurse
You may see them not, but they'll be
! there;
When they speak you may fail to
hear.
You may think you are making your
pacts alone,
But their spirits will hover near,
And whatever terms of peace you
make with the tyrant, whose
hands are red,
You must please not only the living
here,
But must satisfy your dead.
