HIGH WINDS "
BLOW DOWN
POWER WIRES

Owing to several breaks in the
main electric wires from the power
plant today all electric power and
lighting in St. Johnsbury was shut
off for nearly two hours. The breaks
were caused by the high wind which
attained a velocity of IS miles an
hour at times. All manufacturing
plants in town, the motion picture
theatres and all stores were without
light and power 1t was one of the
worst breaks the electric company
has had in years. The Evening Cal
cdonian-Rccord was delayed by the
lack of electric power.

HIGH SCORES
AT OPENING OF
BOWLING LEAGUE
Fuller and Logan Topple
Them Over Around 500
Mark at Barquin's

The Fairbanks Bowling League
of st. Johnsbury opened it's
season at Barquin's alleys last
night and there was lively con-
test between teams 1 and 2. Team
No. 2 had the best of the scoring
topping a total of 1888 pins against
2181 for their opponents. C. E. Full
ler for team 2 and J. Logan for team
1 certainly had their eye on the pins
for Fuller scored an even 500 while
Logan came a close second with 495.
An average of 166 for three strings
is certainly hitting the pins in great
form for so early in the bowling sea-
son. If Fuller and Logan keep up
their good work they are in for a
record season.
Tho score fo11ows.

There is great interest being mani
tested in town bowling league to
include some of the principal bowlers
of St. Johnsbury. The Knights of
Pythias, the firemen, and the Elks
are ready to enter teams in the league
and the Fairbanks bowlers will fur
nish fourth team.
If two more teams are entered it
can be made a six team league and

like the Commercial Club, Crescent
Club, Knights of Columbus, and other
organizations have the material for
excellent teams.
Now is the time to put st. Johns
bury on the map in the bowling game
so that later in the season competi-
tive games can be played with New
port, Sherbrooke and other cities and
towns up and down the valley.

Youthful Burglars

Emmett's Juvenile Court has been
busy this week with the case of two
boys, aged 10 and 13, brothers, who
were arrested Monday morning for
stealing candy from the cigar store of
Henry Irish, on lower Main street
Saturday night. The stolen goods,
it seems were discovered concealed un-
der bridge, and the boys returning
for a supply, were apprehended by an
officer. The youngsters stubbornly
denied for several hours that they
knew anything as to how the candy
had come there, insisting that they
had accidentally found it, but finally
were cross questioned into conflict
ing stories, after which they admitted
their guilt. Judge Sutton has the case
under advisement. He feels that it
is a matter for most serious consider
alton, and will deal with it as such.

Miss MacLaren Pleased

Lovers of high class entertainment
were given genuine treat last even
ing in the presentation by Miss Gay
Zenola MacLaren of Friendly En-
emies", a monolog reproduction of the
recent play of that name. The play
itself is comprehensive perturbation
of the conflicting opinions of the great
mass of German-Americans, and is
filled with heart touching scenes, gen.
erously interspersed with wit. Miss
MacLaren impersonated the six char
acters in so vivid a manner that her
audience went away with perfect pic
lures of the individuals, and with a
feeling of having seen the play, rather
than having heard monolog.

Keep a Few Sheep

A few sheep on every farm is pay
ing investment, according to M. E.
Lewis, who is here from Moscow to
look after his ranch interests on the
bench. And he proves his statement
by his experience. Last spring he
placed so head of sheep on one of his
farms, using 10 acres as pasturage.
Those sheep brought forth 81 lambs.
Twenty three of the lambs were sold
in the fall for $460. He still has 27
left, which he considers are worth
SIS each, or S405, total of 1866. The
wool from those left will pay for their
winters feed. During the growing
season the 10 acres provided all ne
cesary feed. SO Mr. Lewis places the
production of the 10 acres at 1866,
and declares he does not know of any
thing else that would bring as good
from the same acreage.

along her line of work, and will re-

Economics, gave an interesting talk
regarding this department, and the
Girls Canning Club from the mesa,
which, by the way holds the state
in this work, gave a
demonstration in the canning of
meats. 1t was an all around profitable
meeting, and those who failed to at
tend missed a very pleasant and pro
fitable afternoons meeting.

in the city Jail and will probably be
taken to the Canyon county Jail for
safe keeping until his trial comes up
in the district court. For more than
q year complaint has been made by
stockmen and timbermen that a still

but the efforts of the sheriffs of Gem
Boise and Valley counties to locate
the plant were without avail. Some
what sensational disclosures in re-
gard to the illicit manufacture of Ii

able that federal officials win take a

NEWS OF SOLDIERS

Mrs. Callie Burt today received a
letter from her son Ernest, who re-
Gently landed in New York and is
now at Camp Merritt. He requests
forwarding of funds, stating that
his brother Dallas and John Gamage
pounced upon him just as he was
ready to embark from France and re-
lieveC him of every cent. They said
he had enough good things coming
his way--he must leave them what
little comfort his few paltry dollars
could provide. Ernest has hopes of
being discharged in few weeks. He
and Floy Clark, Howard Gaylord and
the other Emmett boys will probably
be demobilized at Camp Lewis.
