Much Dissatisfaction Felt Over the New
Telephone Rates.

There is a good deal of dissatisfaction
over the new telephone rates and sew
eral are having their telephones taken
out When it is remembered that we
are only farming community, nine
miles out from Montpelier, which is our
market town, and that since the death
of DIR. Turner we have no physician in
the place and often have to call several
doctors before one can be found who is
willing to come to Worcester and in two
instances of broken bones no doctor was
found who would come, and the patients
had to be taken to Montpelier hospital,
it surely seems like hard times. When
Calais, Berlin, Mddlesex and East Mont
peier can have the Montpelier exchange
and Worcester is put on a l0cent toll
call rate, where is the fairness?

EAST CORIlVTH
Capt. ]. H. Chamberlain, IS, Connected
with Shipping Business 81 Years.

Capt. j. Fl. Chamberlain passed away
at his homean Brooklyn, N. Y, Saturday
morning, April 26, and his body was
brought to East Corinth for burial Tues

The eldest son, James, of Ashland, Neb.,
could not come. George returned to
Ithaca Wednesday. The others will re-
main for few days longer.
Captain Chamberlain had been in fail
ing health for more than year, but was
so he went to his Office in New York
two or three times week up to three
weeks before his death from heart trou-
bic, the end coming very suddenly at the
last, though il was not unexpected.
Many people here will miss him and
the visits he and the family have made
here summers for so many years.
Captain Chamberlain was born Sept.
%, 1894, in Topsham, and had been con-
nected with shipping in some way since
he started at the age of Is as a sailor on
the sailing vessel Liverpool, of which he
later became captain. He then took the
New World. In 1865 he left the sea and
became a ship insurance broker in Lon
don, England, under the Grinnel, Minturn
company of New York. In 1878 he re-
turned to East Corinth. Going to New
York in 1888, he took up ship surveying
under the Bureau Veritas. and also held
the treasurership of the Marine society
up to the time OF his death.

THE MONTHS.

In January the winds do blow.
And kiddies fair cheeks with health
glow.
In February snow Is on the ground.
And children run and laugh and
bound.
In March welcomed Spring tinges ths
air.
Yet 1t is stll cold and the trees ara
bare.
In April there are many showers.
Yet they do say they bring Man
flowers -
In May the buds DO reappear,
And snow and ice do disappear.
In June the air Is sweet and fair
And blossoms fragrance fills the Air.
In July we can all be seen :
At the seashore or hills so green.
In August we are hot and lazy.
The flowers droop, the air is hazy.
In September back to school we go.
And study hard; oh. yes, Just so.
In october apples juicy appear,
And we know that autumn Is here,
In November the air ia crisp,
Our eyes are bright. our step is brisk.
December brings us a jolly time,
When Christmas comes with snow
and pine.

efficiency of our preparatory WORK
was equally demonstrated.
For seven days, every hour OF the
night and day, the mighty chorus or
400 batteries rose and swellcd un-
ccasngly in vast concourse ot
sound.
Promptly at ten minutes past five
on tho morning OF the seventh day,
the word having passed from end 10
end OF the lines, the men were up and
over. A mine that had been pre-
pared in the Ridge by our engineers
was exploded, the shock rocking every
German trench in the valley killlng
several thousand men and wouudlng
twice as many more. Tho frst and
second lines were taken without any
trouble, and over we went into the
third. Some opposition was here met
but quickly overcome. The pro-
grammc was repeated until the entire
six lines of German trenches were in
Canadian hands, and late IN the ate. -
noon we were masters Of the Ri1g,.
The personal comfort to the men

Arras, after the Ridge was In our
possession had to be seen TO be .ap-
prcciated. Heretofore such thing
as pleasure walk or shopping tour
was out of the question, as tho snip
ing was continuous, and the only way
now for Fritz TO snipe the town was
with his heavy naval pieces, six or
seven miles OFF, and as these visitors
are a hundred times scarcer than the
callers from the short range boys,
the peace and quiet of our fellows
were correspondingly increased one
hundred fold.
No need now was there to hide our
work in and around the coal mines,
the precious element being taken out
OF the bowels OF hountiful nature in
as large abundance as was required (;
our hungry guns can now be sup
piled with all the grub they require

wagon lines moved forward behind
