MIDDLEBURY GETS
QUOTA IN 5 DAYS

Largely due to the enthusiastic work
OF solicitors from the local women's
committee, Chairman P. n. SWEET of
the Middlebury Victory Loan cam
paign was able to report on Wednesday
night that the quota of S73,S00 had
been raised in three days time and
the figures were shooting up steadily
until Yesterday nearly $4,000 had been
subscribed
The popular attitude toward this
Fifth Loan has been that it consti-
tutes such a good investment that the
loan workers will not be surprised if
the quota is doubled. Although it has
been announced that ver-subscriptions
will be rejected this rejection will apply
only to very large subscriptions and
every person subscribing not over Sl0,-
900 will be certain to receive their bond
Large subscriptions by Middlebury Col
lege and the Vermont Marble Com
pany helped particularly toward the
big total

SHEEP GROWERS
TO JOIN IN POOL

The endeavor to interest Addison
County sheep growers, of whom 1t is
estimated there are still over 2OO IN
the county, in organization for better
marketing of their product, was sue
cessfully carried out at a meeting held
in Shoreham Tuesday afternoon where
forty or fifty sheep men gathered to
hear Fred l.. Porter of Crown Point
N. Y, who is president of the New
York State Federation of Sheep Breed
ers, enthusiastically describe the ad-
vantages of that organization.
Although the weather was the most
propitious of any day this spring, the
sheep men were doubtful of the con-
dition of the roads and only few
from a distance attended the meeting
but the towns of Bridport, Whiting
and Shoreham, the latter particularly
were well represented and there was
a lively interest in the organization
project E. B. Cornwall president of
the Farm Bureau, and County Agent
Bartlett attended from Middlebury
Mr. Cornwall presiding He expressed
the belief that the farmers were get
ting plenty of educational propaganda
on how to grow this and that but the
most pressing problem and the most
practical one was how they could get
fair profits from what they were rails
ing. He cited the success of the re-
cent improvement in dairy organiza-
ton, and although he himself was not
at present a sheep raiser, he believed
the sheep men would find the same ad-
vantages in their business.
Mr.. Porter declared that in view OF
the strong organization of labor and
capital, there was no reason why the
largest industries in the world, those
of agriculture and live stock should
not reach a similar perfection of or
ganization Thirty-siX counties in New
York State were represented in the
State Federation of sheep breeders,
and the whole tendency Of their or
ganization had been the coincident
raising of wool prices and better breed
ing A pool will much quicker attract

HER HOME FROM
GERMAN PRISONS

Almost on the anniversary of his cap
ture by the Germans, April 20, 1918,
William r. Hier, who has the distinction
of having been Addison County's only
prisoner of war in Germany, arrived
last Saturday back at his home in Bris-
to with his parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
George Hier.
Hier, who is a member of the lO2nd
Machine Gun Battalion of the famous
Yankee Division" arrived in Boston
Friday on the Patricia, and after hav-
ing spent most of the week at home ne
returned yesterday to Boston to partlcl-
pate in the great parade of the 26th
Division there today.
1t was in the battle of Seicheprey that
Hier fell into the hands of the Germans.
With comparatively little emotion ne
relates how 2600 Germans came over to
attack a smaller force of Americans
and got such hot reception that 1900
of the visitors were killed or captured.
1t was the fate of Hier and twenty
three of his comrades to get complete
ly surrounded by large number of the
attacking party. They had succeeded
in secluding themselves in a ravlne at
the back of Hier and his mates, and
before they realized their perilous posi-
ton they found themselves under fire
at their back and on their right and
left flank, comparatively helpless since
they could not turn their own gun re-
placements around and begin attack on
their trappers.
Hier has nothing very pleasant to say
of his experiences in Germany, but still
was not misused as severely as he
feared when he first fell into the hands
of the Huns. He and his comrades
were taken first to Conhans where they
spent a week under search and had
scores of pictures taken of them, then
being removed to large camp at Darn
stadt, the capital of the Province of
Essen. Hier says that during the six
weeks there he had both good and bad
treatment.
The Germans were at first disposed
to treat the prisoners quite fairly, and
in fact treated them to smokes ana gave
them to feel that they would be well

NEW TRAIN SERVICE
BEGINS IN TEN DAYS

The complete prewar train service
on the Rutland Railroad will be re-
stored on May when the morning
mail from the north and the afternoon
mail train from Boston will be put into
commission again, and several other
important changes made in service.
Better accommodations will also be Civ
en- travellers on the through trains The
day flyers will have parlor cars be-
tween Montreal and New York and
will carry a dining car.
The southbound morning train will
leave Burlington at s o'clock, arriving
in Middlebury at about g. 1t used to
be 9:26
The Green Mountain Flyer, which
will run Sundays as we'll as week days,
will arrive in Rutland at about 1875
instead of l27, which probably means
the Middlebury stop will come l2:35
instead of 1920 as at present.
The evening southbound which now
runs daily, will be discontinued on Sun
day. The weekday train will continue
to reach Mddlebury at 4:56, but Sun
days a new train will be put on, leav
ing Burlington at p. m. and arriving
in Rutland at 7:20
The present northbound noon train
will leave Rutland at lib instead of
ll.l0 making it about three minutes
later than at present here-probably
1928
The afternoon mail train which has
been discontinued during the war, will
leave Boston at 7:55, Rutland at PIP,
and Middlebury probably at 3:l5.
The time of the northbound flyer will
be changed materially, leaving New
York at 9:30 instead of $3.50 in the
morning, and Rutland at 4:35, making
it due in Middlebury about 5:45. The
Boston section of this train will start
from that city at II am.
The evening train from Boston now
arriving here at 1923 will be moved
ahead to about 9:55
The sleeper now leaving Rutland at
3:l0. will start from that city at 3:3O
making its arrival in Middlebury at
about 4:25 instead of 4:07.
The new timetable has not yet been
received at the Middlebury station,
but will probably be available next
week

MATTER OF DUST
STILL UP IN AIR

Two popular matters-protection OF
Middlebury villagers from the curse
of dust the coming summer, and the
proposition of providing Middlebury
with a visiting district nurse-attracted
a good number of men and women
voters to the special village meeting
in the town hall on Tuesday evening,
and the proceedings indicated lively
interest in village affairs, There was
unanimous and violent condemnation
of the dust, but there was sharp di-
vision between those who favored oil
ing the streets and those who preferred
sprinkling The final result was. the
appointment of two committees, each
of which is to report at a subsequent
village meeting, one committee to re-
port on oiling and the other on sprink-
ling. In the meantime the village trus-
tees are authorized to fight the dust
as best they can by the use of the
old village sprinkler.
Opposition to Oil
. Scarcely had the meeting assembled,
with Judge Weeks presiding, when, di-
rectly following the reading of the
warning by Village Clerk Burke, Chas.
F. Rich moved that the whole article
of the warning relating to the oiling
of the streets be laid on the table. He
was pursuaded to withdraw the motion
long enough to give an opportunity
for debate, however, and his motion
was finally lost Willis N. Cady ex-
plained that the trustees felt they were
servants of the people and desired to
do what the majority considered ad-
visable, and indicated that the trus-
tees had been unable to determine
whether oil or water was most desired.
The cost of oiling, he said was about
one-half cent per yard higher this year,
but the fact that the State appropri-
ated 5000 toward this expense, instead
Sl5O as was the case last year, the actual
cost to the village would not be ap-
preciably greater Two years ago when
the streets were last oiled, the village
experienced a hard rain directly after
the .oiling the water carrying away a
large percentage of the oil
4'AA MIL uCNldl GU ludl IL lllG SlIctLS
could be oiled twice or three times a
year it might solve the problem, but
doing it once, and losing the effect of
the oil within two or three weeks was
absolutely throwing money away"
Mr. Cady explained that the matter
of sprinkling entailed some difficulty
as the old village sprinkler was made
quate, and the water situation was
such that water could not be taken
from the village hydrants during the
suDmer. 1t was estimated that t.
cost of new sprinkler would be many
times greater than oil
DR.. P E MelIen, who is a member of
the Board of Trustees sought to bring
harmony with the proposition that the
side streets be oiled and that the main
street Davements be regularly sprink-
led This motion was lost
States ATTORNEY Allen R. Sturtevant
spoke as an advocate Of Sprinkling and
pointed to the village of Bristol as hav-

HENRY F. JOY
DIED YESTERDAY

Henry +. Joy, for 70 years a resident
of Middlebury, where for the past
eighteen years he had been in business
for himself, died at 4 O'Clock yesterday
morning after several months suffer
ing from cancer.
He was born in Springfield, Mass,
November 81, 1865, the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Herman Joy of that city, His
father died while he was a baby, His
mother married David Lamorder, and
during Henry Joys childhood they
lived in Salisbury. He was we'll known
there as a boy, and William Water
house of Salisbury, who was boyhood
chum, remembers we'll the incident of
how young Joy lost his right arm in a
celebration. 1t was in March of the
year that Hayes was elected when
upon receiving the final electoral re-
turns the Republicans went wild over
the news. The Salisbury boys, among
whom were Waterhouse and Joy,
dragged the village cannon out that
night to properly mark the occasion.
Joy was holding his thumb over the
vent of the cannon when premature
explosion occurred, resulting in the
loss of all of his right forearm.
In addition to his education at Sails
bury schools, Joy attended Black Riv-
er Academy at Ludlow, and later at
Poughkeepsie Business College He Sc
cured a position as bookkeeper for
Smith & Allen, who were then running
the mill business now conducted by
Rogers & Wells. He became quite skill
full as an accountant, and eighteen years
ago he branched out to a mercantile
career on his own account establishing
a gentlemens furnishing store, to which
ne had given his devoted attention
up to last winter when failing health
led him to consult specialist and he
went to the Mary Fletcher Hospital in
Burlington with the expectation of un-
dergoing an operation 1t is under
stood, however, that the malignant CON
ditions had too far advanced and, with
out being operated upon, Mr. Joy re-
turned to his boarding place in Middle
bury where he had since been practical
" bedridden with his trouble and
where his final end came yesterday in
relief of a most painful illness
Mr. Joy had lived practically all Of
his years here at the home of Mrs
Sarah Noland, and on March p last
he married Mrs Noland's daughter,
Miss Agnes Elizabeth Noland Be
sides his wife he is survived only by
his stepfather, David Lamorder, who
lives at Chicopee Falls, Mass, and two
half brothers. William and John La
morder who are employed in Bridge
port, Conn.
Mr. Joy was prominent member of
the Masonic Lodge here and was a
charter member of the Moosalamoo
Club For three years he had held the
position of village water tax commits
sioner

4 Country Towns Are Over

County Chairman John A. Fletcher
was able to report to State Chairman
Morse at Rutland yesterday that four
Addison County towns had raised or
bettered their quota in the first three
days of the loan Whiting was the
first town to meet its quota, and Bris-
tol, Rpton and Middlebury are the
three others The state as a whoie
was past the so per cent mark yester-
day, and if rapid work is done Vermont
may have the distinction of being the
first state in the union to report in full
