under which Holland annexed the

Barton Boys as Bankers.

A noticeable feature of the report
of the recent meeting of the Vermont
State Bankers association held in
Montpelier, was the part Barton boys
played in the meeting.
c. S. Webster of the Barton Saw
ings Bank & Trust Co., made his re-
port as secretary of the association
and was reelected to that important
Office. Homer II. Webster of Ben
nington, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Albert
Webster of Barton, gave the report
for the executive committee, of which
he is a member. w. c. Johnson of
Barre, another Barton boy who began
his bank training with the Barton
bank, was elected a member of the
executive committee for a term of
two years.
This speaks we'll for the caliber of
Barton boys and the training they re-
ceived in the local banking institu-
tion. In this connection it might be
mentioned that F. H. Dana, treasurer
of the bank at North Troy, is a Bar
ton boy and received his training in
the Barton bank. Another boy to
whom Barton lays partial claim, at
least, is J. D. Corley, who is treasurer
of a bank in Colebrook, n. H. He is
graduate of Barton academy and re
ceived his bank training in the Or
leans bank

Town Meeting Next Tuesday.

The warnings for Barton's town
meeting on Tuesday next at Seaver's
hall are posted and contain "a arti-
cles of business. Only two of the
articles are out of the ordinary. These
are article p, which calls for a
change in the boundaries between the
incorporated school districts of Bar
ton and Orleans and the town, and
article D, which IS to see if the town
will vote to instruct the board of civil
authority of said town to abate poll
taxes set to men in the military and
naval service of the United States for
the year 1918.
The annual report shows that the
selectmen have drawn orders for
over S33, 5000, the overseer for over
$4,000, the two road commissioners
for over $4,000, the town school di-
rectors for over $4,000 and the super
intendent of special highway work
for over $500, the total payments,
with old orders being over $4,000.
The summary shows that the town
has approximately ''broken even" in
the past year, the net resources of the
town standing about S1OO more than
it did a year ago.

Doings of the Barton Band.

We are wondering if the following
would be of interest to the people who
gathered to listen to the Barton band
during concert season. 1t might per-
haps give them an idea of the amount
Of time that is required of the mem
bers of the band to prepare them
selves to give these concerts.
During the past year the band has
been together for rehearsals and con-
certs Il times, divided as follows, 46
r5hearsals, Is Saturday evening con-
ceTts, three sacred concerts, Memori-
al day, lawn parties, etc, nine times.
The past year has been hard year
for the band financially on account of
members being called to service,
making it necessary to hire in outside
help in order to give our concerts.
Some of the people interested in the
band knowing its financial condition
started a paper to raise funds for the
benefit of the band. In less than
two hours the paper was handed to
the band containing 20 names. also a
sum of money amounting to S152, for
which the members of the band were
ver- grateful.
The band at present is working
lard having two rehearsals each week
Derparing for concerts the coming
season.
The outlook is now that the band
will be able to give concerts even
better than last year and hopes that
-tanding room around the park will
be at premium.
