New Train Service on Central Vermont
Next Sunday a new train schedule will
20 into effect ON the Central Vermont
railway. Most OF the changes set the
trains a little earlier than they have
been departing The Sunday trains are
to be again in operation. The south
bound train going as it does on week
days, under the same number, but the
evening train from Boston viii arrive at
6:43 p. IN. Another change will be the
arrival of the New England States Linn
tied in the middle of the afternoon in
stead of evening. This is due to an ear
ier start from Boston and the fact that
it is 10 be an express entirely from
Boston and between Concord, \. H., and
White River Junction. This train will
be due at 4;02 p. m. Other changes are
the arrival of the south morning mail
train at S.4S, the northbound mail at
$3.50 o'clock The southbound noon ex-
press will leave Montpelier at IL: 80 in
stead of l2:40 getting into Boston an
hour earlier. The southbound evening
mail will leave at Gals o'clock while the
southbound milk train will leave at $40
instead of Gals The southbound night
express will leave at 1908 instead OF
1880 a. m. The northbound milk train
will leave at ll;27, some 30 minutes
earlier than now. The northbound after
noon mail now due at 1929 will not ar
rive until 70S p. m. This train will
leave Boston at 1880 instead of $3.50
o'clock as IL has been doing. The gen.
eral feeling is an appreciation of the i'm.
proved service but there is feeling
that better service should be given be-
tween Montpelier and Barre.

Under the direction of Harry =. Reed
iof Salem, Mass, the "Dutch village"
which has beeI set up in the city hall
was placed in operation Sunday evening
for the purpose of aseertaining if all
parts were in working order and it APP
peared they were. The windmill in the
center is one of the most attractive
sights of the village The illumination
of it is very interesting and by changing
the switches it is possible for the illu-
mination to he changed to considerable
extent. The other parts of the "village"
were placed in working order and those
who are to have charge of the "inns"
were instructed as TO their work in
carrying out the program arranged I'M
der the auspices of the Odd Fellows Of
Montpelier. The whole affair is one of
the most unique that has ever been set
in motion in Montpelier and the general
impression of those who were present
last evening was that it would be sue
cessful.
