TALK OF THE TOWN

Miss Mary McKerron of Laurel street
has obtained employment in Lowell,
Mass, for which place she started by
the noon train to-day.
Saturday afternoon at Benjamin Falls
the annual picnic of the Hedding Meth
odist Episcopal Sunday school was held.
There was a large number present and
everyone declared they had an enjoyable
time. The boys and young men played
ball, the boys had shooting competi-
tion, and races were run by the boys
and girls. The company returned to
Barre in the evening.
Charles Hoernle, the coach of the Nor
witch university baseball team for the

FOURTH MEETING TONIGHT.
Committees Will Report Progress on the
Arrangements.

Tonight in the rooms of the Granite
Manufacturers association there will be
a roundup meeting of all the committees
connected with plans for Barre's mon
ster homecoming celebration in honor of
the soldiers and sailors of Washington
and Orange counties July A. 1t is espe-
cially necessary that every committee
chairman be present, and those who So
licited funds are also urged to attend
and to be ready to report, The meeting
begins promptly at o'clock.
More elaborate plans than were at
first contemplated have been worked out
for the arch to be erected near City
square, and operations on the structure
will be gotten under way tomorrow.
N. Pelaggi, who achieved signal success
in the erection and decoration of North
fields memorial arch, is to be an impor
tant factor in the Barre project, thus
assuring this city of an arch that will
combine strength with artistic appear
ance. As the day of the celebration APP
proaches interest is reaching fever heat,
and the operations of the arch builders
as we'll as the movements of the street
decorators, soon to arrive from Manches
ter, n. H., will be watched with avidity.
Apparently the promised spectacle OF
real, honest-to goodness army flyer in
a Cutiss JN4 is the most talked of
feature of the coming celebration. As
surances that Lieut.. j. j. Lynch will I'M
cover about every stunt known to flying
men has served to whet everybodys APP
petite for the sensational. Moreover, the
announcement that Sergt. Alex d. Strait
on, Barre boy who served his appren-
ticeship in the air paths over Dallas,
Tex, is to accompany the lieutenant on
several of his flights has given the event
a distinct local favor.
Out in the countryside, especially in
the towns over which Lieut. Lynch and
his flying companion are to circle, good
deal of enthusiasm has been generated.
As if by magic, the news that Lieut..
Lynch will make cross state fight on
the day before the Fourth has set the
folks to talking. Much of the day before
will be given over to flights around Barre
and vicinity. The real stunts and most
of the passenger carrying will come on
the holiday.
Efforts are being made to add to the
already attractive card of games and
athletics by arranging for ball game
between two fast teams A more de-
tailed announcement of the sports will
be made later

nate Premier Clemenceau.
A report Of the international labor leg
islation committee was adopted April i.
PREPARATION demands to be made on Ger
many were approved April Ia, and the
Germans were invited on April l6 to send
their delegation to Versailles to receive
the treaty.
The peace conference next considered
the treaty with Austria The Italian
delegation insisted upon obtaining con.
troll OF the former Austrian city of
Fiume, but on April 20 President Wilson
gave out statement that Fiume could
not be given to Italy. On the next day
Premier Orlando returned to Rome, and
for more than week thereafter the

and week of mourning was decreed by
the German government, but the decree
was virtually UNDECIDED.
Thereafter the German delegates sub

become effective when ratified by Ger.

COOL WEATHER

The weather the past week has
been delightful owing to the copious
rains which have fallen generally ov-
er the county and which have broken
the intense heat which had prevailed
for some weeks previous. Rain was
badly needed for row crops and came
Just In time to save a great many

other grain was In the stack so that
II was not damaged BY the rains and
threshing has not been seriously re-
tarded a trip to the country reminds
one of the days of 1914 when row
crops were st their best and made the
rankest growth of years. For time
II looked as IL very little row crop
would be produced this year but the
good rains have changed conditions
materially and now It looks as II we
would have splendid harvest of
forage crops this fall

ANOTHER CHANGE IN
TL.Nr noon.

The state text book commission
has recently ordered a change in the
books used by the grade and high
schools to the extent OF about 60 per
cent. This means that the parents
OF children of school age will be
compelled to go into their pockets
for few millions to properly equip
their youngsters for the next school
year. They may do 1t joyously and
stoutly maintain that it's the proper
and only thing, but judging the av-
erage parent from his actions in the
past. it's safe to assert here that he
will say some things not particular
ly complimentary about the commits
sion his money hires. and then strain
little harder to meet the present
high cost OF the necessary things of
life and get the books.
Some changes were necessary. The
geography of the old word has been
changed until the old text books
on that subject do not apply, but
aside from that and perhaps a few
minor changes the present books
would have answered every pur-
pose.
But we have a text book commits
sion and uunless they tear things up
every year or two there would be
no excuse for their gobs Isn't this
another instance of too much govern
ment?

 "Skiting" in the Australian verna- cuar is boaSting, perhaps the nearest approach to it's meaning, in American slang. being "four-flushing."
 "l have never yet heard an Ameri- caa say that America won the war, but | have read it." he went on. "Am. erica did not win the war. There is no doubt that America helped to fin. ish it."
