was on the train to St. Lazaire
one Day said the Ri Rev. Edwin H.
nushes OF Maiden, Mass, for Is years
BISHOP of the Methodist Church,
VINO has just returned home after six
hlohths In France. His official object
was to represent the church in sur
'ey OF its chap1ain's work, but he
wore the uniform of the ~" and gave
hundreds Of Sunday night talks to the
boys in "Y' huts
IN the compartment with me were
TWO American officers. The sight of
my insignia set them going and for
some time they enjoyed the pleasure
OF saying all the disagreeable things
they could think of about The "
Ihelr frequent glances at me and the
brief pauses in their talk indicated
that their object was to draw cut
some reply from me. But 1 only
smiled and nodded and let them go it
until they were out Of ammunition.
Ihen l looked over and said:
Its pity you boys have so little
very good hotel for officers at St La
zaire.''
They looked at one another and
smiled, a little as though they admit
ted the joke was on them, and one
said:
Yes, We know it. That's where we
thought we'd go"
Well" l returned, 1T strikes me
as rather inconsistent. l knew that
most Of the kicks the doughboys write
home about the " are written on "
stationery, but l gave you officers
credit for better logic
saw that now l had their attention,
and continued.
gu know, I suppose, that though l
wear the " uniform I cannot get in
al your hotel They wouldn't risk
giving me a room there lest few of
you tired fellows from the front lines
should come in. l shall have to walk
the streets from house to house to
get myself a bed, and that's all right,
! expect to. Now, boys, you know
that the " has got to stand by the
Army and say nothing, for if we
should attempt to reply to your com
plants our defense would include
some reelection on the boys who ac-
cept our service and then growl behind
our backs. We don't do that, and we
won't If our secretaries are short
of supplies and boys have to 90 away
disappointed now many realize that
the condition is due to the fact that
the Army takes over most of our motor
transport outfit as fast as it lands
in France? That we are in need of
trucks to carry our supplies from port
TO front line? No one appreciates what
fine lot of men the American officers
are more than l do, but I will tell
you this that the doughboy doesn't
talk to you as he does to he ~ man.
and that l have heard more kicks
against officers from him than / have
against the W"
When l stopped speaking they looked
at me for moment, ard then one
said: We'll. Bishop, I suggest that
you he appointed to go along the lines
and explain some things the boys don't
consider when they blame the 'Y'
You've certainly changed our mind"
My last word was this: mo, | didn't
come over for that purpose VIII

VAIL PROPERTY in
GROTON is SOLD TO
PARKER YOUNC co.
Is One OF the Largest Real
Estate Deals in the
County
SALE PRICE is $4,000
Contains $4,000 Acres of Valuable
Timber Land and a "Private
Preserve"
SALE PRICE is $4,000

One of the largest real estate deals
in Caledonia County was made in the
sale of the Vail property at Groton
to the Parker Dung Co. of Lisbon,
N. H., the transfer being recently
made at the town clerks office in
Groton.
This property consists of around
$4,000 acres, the larger portion being
timber land, the purchase price is
reported to be $4,000.
This property was formerly owned
by the late Judge j. r. Darling OF
Groton, who in the early 89's erected
a lumber mill at the pond and con-
Quoted an extensive lumber business
for several years. The trout pond,
formerly known as "Darling's Pond"
was one of the finest private pre-
serves in the state and was originally
stocked by Judge Darling from nat
ural sources, and said by John w.
Titcomb, fish culturist, and for many
years fish and game commissioner of
Vermont, to be zone of the best trout
ponds in the state stocked from nat
ural sources" This pond contains
about 40 acres, it's supply being
mountain spring water of the temp
erature and purity to make it ideal
for fish culture.
Judge Darling sold this property to
the late Senator S. L. Griffith of Dan
by, who conducted a lumber business
and added to the original purchase
many thousand acres. Hon. T. N.
Vail purchased the property from
Senator Griffith and has greatly i'm
proved the Summer home" and in
creased the acreage by the purchase
of the Pigeon Hill and Harvey's mill
properties until now this tract ex-
tends from Pigeon Hill near Marsh
field line to Harvey's mill in the town
of Orange and includes a large por-
ton of both Harris and Goshen
cores.
During the ownership of Senator
Griffith the United States government
established a stripping station at the
pond and every year millions of trout
fry are taken from this mountain
stream and distributed over the state.
Aside from it's great value as tim
Der tract it is one of the most desir-
able private preserves in the state.
