LAsHER ANNIVERSARY
A Pleasant Surprise Marks Their
Silver Wedding Day

Mr. and Mrs Frank Lasher, who
were married 20 years ago October 10
in the town of Weybridge by the Rev
Mr. Houghton, were given silver
wedding party and surprise in the par
lors of the Memorial Baptist church,
which was decorated with autumn
foliage for the occasion, Thursday eve
ming, at the close Of the regular meet
ing. Although the weather was threat
ening, they were brought to the village
by automobile, which had been secured
to make sure they would be in attend
ance at the gathering At the close of
the meeting they were requested to
face the audience by the pastor of the
church, the Rev Roy E. Whttemore,
who then presented them with silver
tea set, with appropriate remarks. This
was followed by social hour. Mr.. and
Mrs Lasher were born in New York
State and came to Vermont in their
teens and have since resided in this
vicinity They are both members of
Memorial Baptist church, in which
they are held in high esteem and are
among the prominent workers of the
church,

Animals in Warfare

Probably the most astonishing thing
in the lecture on "The Use of Animals
in Warfare" given last Wednesday
evening in the Mccullough Gymnasium
by Ernest Harold Baynes, was his
story of the breeding of carrier
pigeons with parrots, so that if the
written message happened to be lost
in transit the hybrid bird might deliver
it orally Some persons in the audience
seemed to disbelieve this story yet it
was mot 50 much more extraordinary
than many Others the lecturer vouched
for concerning the useful, intelligent,
and even heroic feats of our animal
allies in the Great War He exploded
the myth about Red Cross dogs res
cuing the wounded on the battlefield;
but he also described the many useful
deeds Of daring and devotion that they
actually did perform. He convinced
his hearers that the war could not
possibly have been won without the
doing to death by overwork, privation,
and wounds of many hundred thous-
ands of horses, notwithstanding the ut
most efforts of their masters to give
them humane treatment and scientific
medical care. He strongly urged that
we who have profited by all these sacri-
fees should try to discharge part of
our debt by greater kindness 10 the
friendly animals who still survive and
serve us. His account of the camels,
who could 90 for thirty days without
a drink, was surely most timely and
full of encouragement for the difficult
DAYS ahead

The encouragement of the young peo-
pie of the county in farm and home ex-
hibitons such as that held in Middle
bury this week is one very tangible
good which the Farm Bureau and
schools are doing; but it is only one of
many progressive movements in which
the Farm Bureau takes a hand each
year. Both the county agent and the
home demonstration, like the school
teachers are working on allowances re-
markedly small in consideration of the
educational and promotion work which
they are striving to do. 1t is reason
able to ask on the Registers own in
itiative, if the farm and home interests
of the county are not sufficiently inter
ested in this work to support it still
more heartily both morally and 6nan-
cially?

HENRY W. BREWSTER
DIES AT AGE OF 81
Continued from page onel

one brother having died at sea, and one
in a hospital at New Orleans while
acting as a surgeon in the Mexican war,
Mr.. Brewster had made Mddlebury
his home for all but eight years when,
at about 20 years of age, he worked for
a time in Reading and Boston, Mass,
learning the trade of cabinet maker.
When he returned to Middlebury he be-
came an apprentice in the jewelry trade
under Simeon Holton, proprietor of a
store which stood near the present
location of G. w. & H. H. Stones.
This was in 1856, and in '5S Mr.. Brews-
ter started a jewelry business on his
own account in the Brewster block,
which his father had built, and where
he continued in business up to within
two years ago.
1t is interesting to recall that in
Swifts History of Addison County,
Mr.. Brewster was listed as a gold
smith and telegraphist" In those days
the telegraph was in its infancy, quite
as new and fascinating as the airplane,
and a number of people took up the
fad of learning the code of dots and
dashes. Mr.. Brewster, however, was
more than an amateur having assisted
A. H. Copeland as telegraph operator.
Mr.. Brewster's "reminiscences also in
Guided the story of many stage trip
he took while a boy before the rail
road had entered this country; partic-
ularly his trips with Isaac Williamson,

vicinity-father of Charles Williamson,

Mr.. Brewster was a prominent Ma
son, being a member of Union Lodge
No. 2, F. and A. NJ, Potter Chapter
No. %, R. A, NJ, and Middlebury
Council No. IA. His two surviving
children are William H. Brewster, who
resides at IS Court street and Mrs.
Joseph A. Peck of New York, who,
with her husband is now in Middlebury,
Mr.. Brewster's wife, in her Seth year,
also survives and is in good health
The funeral was held Monday after
noon at the home the Rev Henry c.

ance of local business men. The bear
ers were Charles Powers Of Bennington,

seph NJ. Burke The burial was in the
old family lot in the West Cemetery,
where Mr. Brewster's parents and two
brothers and sister were buried.
