The Four Children Decide to
Continue Their Trip to
Scotland

A most interesting sequel to the
trip of the four orphans that spent
Friday in st. Johnsbury was the visit
they had on the Portland steamer
from Ernest L. Gellerson of Port
land "a representative of the Gellcr-
son Lumber Company. He said he
came as the personal representative
of George C.. Cary of st. Johnsbury
to offer the little folks home in St.
Johnsbury.
After listening to the proposition,
Janet, aged II, the little mother Of
the flock, who had charge of the tick
cts and looked out for her sister and
two brothers all the way from Gas
katoon, decided that they would go
on to Scotland.
Mr. Cary left for New York Friday
afternoon via Burlington and saw the
story Of the four children in the Call
edonian-Record, and at once became
Immensely interested in them. When
he reached New York Saturday
morning he telephoned to Mr. Gel
lerson to intercept them there and
offer them home with him, saying
that he would bring them up and
give them a good education 1t is
likely, MI. Gellerson said, that Mr..
Cary will communicate with the
grandmother to see what can be

Reputation Of
The G.. III. GOsS Co.
Establishment
Is Far Reaching

Within the past few weeks the c.
II. Goss Co. has been receiving al
most daily Automobiles from Yer
mont, New Hampshire and New York
for mechanical service work. Paint
ing, Vanishing and upholstery.
1t is interesting to note that this
Company's reputation for high class
service has not only been locally es-
tablished throughout Vermont and
Northern New Hampshire, but that
they number among their patrons
several New York city owners of
Packard cars, attracted to the st.
Johnsbury Packard Agency through
their appreciation of high grade SER
vice, so says a recent New York man
who telegraphed Mr., Goss Nov. 28th
he would leave New York on Satur'
day a, m with driver, having reached
St. Johnsbury Saturday p. m. at seven
o'clock leaving the same night for
New York. Such appreciation is
better understood when it is taken
into consideration that any character
of work required to place an auto
mobile in proper condition is done at
the Goss Cos plant. No concern
boasts of high class coach work which
has resulted in attarcting the sincere
appreciation of the most critical. adv

The latter played for the offertoly
and Paul Sargent played violin
solo. u 4t f"aa
Rev. George A. Martin gave a
strong address on tho theme "N hat
We Fought For" He said America
entered the war with the idea that
they were fighting not only for the
right, but for the rights the. people
would have after the war. He prais-
ed the soldiers for their valor, for
thcir sacrifices and for their thoughts
Of their homes.
The pastor then called the honor
roll and each one present responded
to their name. Sixteen Of the SOL
dicrs were in the church and answer
ed to their name. When the pastor
came to the four who had made the
supreme sacrifice, Frank West, Will
liam Il. Knapp, Raymond H., Batch
elder and Harold NJ. Ladd, the audi
ence. stood in silence for a moment,
after which he offered. prayer Mr..
Martin then gave the name of each
