GIVE BUNNY A CHANCE

At q recent meeting of the officers
and directors Of the Bennington,
County Forest, Fish and Game asso-
citation it was voted that the organi
cation go on record as recommending
a change in the present law permit
ting the use of ferrets In hunting rab-
bits. The vote taken was in effect
that should any change in the law be
proposed during the present session
of the Legislature that a closed sea-
son be put on ferrets for two years
! in Bennington county.
Hunters and other persons who fire.
quent the woods and fields assert
/ that the grey rabbit, Lepus sylyani.
SOUS, has been nearly cleaned out of
tome sections of the county, pa 4
licularly in and around Bennington.
two years ago the rabbits were num-
Arous enough but today il is almost
impossible to Cad a rabbit track to
Say nothing of discovering the rab-
bit itself. The change is believed
| TO be due to persistent hunting with
ferrets. It rs a known fact that ?
, large huber OF ferrets are beingkeE /.
; in Bennington at the present time.
The ferret has come under the bal
In neary every state in the union.
Many hunters claim that their use
Is nnzportsmanlike for the reason
| shat the rabbit once run to earth has
no chance. After the ferret enters
\ the hole Bunny merely has two ways
bf dying; to stay in the hole and be
/ killed by the ferret orrush out and be
! killed by the hunter. The little ami
J inal usually adopts the latter course.
There is a provision in the law as
81 now stands that the rabbit when
driven from its hole shall be shot
but there is good reason to believe
that this provision is not given much

Robert Lee, Aged 13, of
Northfield, Lost Life
in Howe's Pond
TWO YOUNG BROTHERS
COULDN'T SAVE HIM
Body Was Recovered Early
This Morning, Many Hours
After the Accident

Northfeld, May 2s.--While fishing
from boat in Howe's pond with his

the three boys went out and proceeded
to fish, when in some unexplained man
ner the elder, Robert, fell over board. The
other boys, being considerably younger,
could do little to save Robert, although
he came to the surface twice,
Later they made their way to shore

NO PROMISE OF RELIEF
For Barre and Montpelier Subscribers on
Intercity Tolls.

Sugar with which to coat the acrid pill
prepared by the New England Telephone
& Telegraph company for its Barre and
Montpelier customers was brought to
this city last evening by Supt J. F. Hall
of the capital and served TO a representa-
tive group of intercity citizens assembled
in the manufacturers hall.
1t was far from being love feast, for
the telephone representatives were the
targets for the concentrated fire of va
rious business and professional interests
sadly affected by the recent removal of
the commercial rate between the two
cities and the substitution of five-cent
charge for every call The meeting was
called to order by n. D. Phelps, mem
Der of the advisory board for eastern
Vermont, and among the impromptu
speakers who followed the telephone men
were representatives of the Barre and
Montpelier Boards of Trade and the
Granite Manufacturers association.
Former Senator Harry Daniels few
hours before bade adieu to his cows and
chickens, wooden mills and farm mort
cages in the East and North Montpeliers,
tucked his wallet in his vest pocket and
journeyed down to Barre to help rout
the telephone people. His frequent cross
examination exposed some of the least
tenable arguments of the telephone com
pany. albeit his sharp thrusts, well point
ed with humor, kept the conference
chuckhng. 1t seems that Mr.. Daniels,
sharing the general confusion of tele-
phone subscribers nowadays, learned for
the first time Just what kind of service
he is paying for. In the course Of the
hearing il developed that Mr. Daniels
will have to move his telephone instru-
ment into his sugarhouse in order to
benefit-by the service available in the
Montpelier zone, so called The sugar
house is the only building on the Daniels
property that comes within the zone.
Various stopgaps, such as foreign
service, measured service, etc, were in
terestingly discussed by Messrs, Hall
and Gowdey. BY them it was admitted
that the New England Telephone & Tele-
graph company contemplated a change
in the system of intercity service before
the government made the change manda-
tory. II came out incidentally that the
intercity calls have fallen off amazingly
since the new rate became effective Sub
scribers present, in discussing the general
aspects of the system, were unanimous
in declaring that the service provided by
the Barre exchange was decidedly supe-
rior to that of the Montpelier exchange.
Mr.. Gowdey believed that the difference
might be due in part to the longer ex-
perience of the Barre "hello" girls. He
said that any average wait in excess of
four seconds for a response from central
should be described as poor service
During the evening it came out that
many subscribers, especially in the rural
district, have lately interested them
selves good deal in the service of the
Orange County line After last nights
hearing there is no reason for hoping for
relief from the new conditions, unless a
much proposed intercity company is
formed.
