Growth of The Paradine Paint

Through the COmpany's success in max
ing paint, other uses for asphalt were sought
and found, and it gradually extended its
business. New products were brought out
from time to time, such as "P & B" roofngs

later, floor coverings.

The oil companies had
trouble in supplying it, be-

there was little or no market

LYNDONVILLE
TOWN CLERKS
SAFE OPENED
Get $3.50 of Towns Money
and About SIS Belonging
to DOnahue & Stevens

Sometime Sunday night thieves en-
tered the office of the town clerk of
Lyndon at Lyndonville and took from
the big safe $3.50 of the towns mon
ey and about $75 belonging TO the
coal firm of Donahue Il Stevens. At
the same time the burglars entered
the basement of the grocery store of
Arthur f. Smith, but could not get
upstairs.
Entrance was effected in the town
clerks office by forcing open win
dow in the furnace room and then
coming upstairs. Town Clerk Stew
ems does not keep the safe locked and
the thieves helped themselves to all
the bills they could find, but did not
touch the silver or the checks. They
also got away with about $75 be-
longing to Donahue & Stevens. The
job was done in a bungling manner
which would indicate that the work
was done by amateur cracksmen.
The thieves tried to get into the
Smith grocery store and effected
their entrance into the basement of
the store by forcing open window
They could get no farther than the
basement as there is heavy lock on
the cellar door and they took nothing
in this store.
Sheriff Worthen and States Attor-
ney Campbell were notified of the
burglary and are investigating the
case Monday afternoon. No clue has
yet been discovered as to the perpe-
traitors OF the deeds.

THREE KILLED
WHEN EXPRESS
HITS MOTOR CAR

JONESVILLE, Aug. 18-Three
people were killed instantly and three
injured, two seriously Sunday at 1l.20
a. M, when the southbound New Eng
land States limited struck an auto
mobile at the railroad crossing. The
automobile was struck squarely in
the center, killing two of the occu-
pants and injuring two riding in the
rear seat. The auto was thrown
down the river bank and crashed
against a rock where it hung.
The train tore along about 100
yards to the slight curve where the
engine plunged down the bank and
into the river, being half buried in the
river bed. The rest of the train was
saved by the first cars striking a
ledge.
The killed arc: Mr.. and Mrs, John
Miles of Huntington Center and En-
gineer c. Rollin Smith of st. Albans,
who was scalded to death, dying in 10
minutes. The fireman jumped and
saved his life. In the automobile
with Mr.. and Mrs. Miles were their
daughter, Lena Miles, and Eli Field
er. The latter's injuries were slight
Miss Miles was taken to the Mary
Fletcher hospital in Burlington. She
is not considered in a serious con-
dition.
The crossing is one of the most
dangerous on the road. The covered
bridge, through which the motorists
had to pass, is only so feet from the
crossing, which is on the beginning
of sharp curve.
The Miles car was preceded by an
other automobile party, which got
safely across and had reached the
village of Warren before noticing
that the second car was not with them
Returning to discover why the Miles
car was not following, they learned
of the accident.
Leon O'Neil of Jonesville, 13 years
old, was fishing from the river bank
when the engine plunged into the
river. He escaped injury by jumping
into the water and swimming clear
across to the other bank. He was
burned slightly by cinders and steam.
A wreck train was sent from St.
Albans and began Immediately to
repair the track and the work of rails
ing the engine.
Mr. Miles was 81 years old and his
wife As. Besides their daughter, who
was with them, they are survived by
daughter, Miss Dora Miles, of Bat
tie Creek, Mich, and son, Ralph
Miles, of Huntington Center. The
latter was on the scene of the acci-
dent half an hour after the crash.
