Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1919-06-20

Middlebury has gained wide repute
through its decennial productions of
Roman Drama, and through its presen-
tation of Peeles Old Wives Tale as rep
resentative of the Elzabethan stage.
These events have been distinctive fea-
lures of the Commencement exercises
in the years when they have been given.
1t is hoped that this year Middlebury
will present itself no less favorably to
the public as a singing college. Never
before has the college attempted
Commencement musical performance
on the scale of The Mikado, and Mr.
Bissells handling OF the rehearsals has
displayed unusual talent, not only in his
direction of the ensemble effects but
equally in the development of the solo
parts taken by the students. The per
Torrance is strictly amateur, no soloists
outside the college having been engaged
for any of the principal parts.
Mr.. Bissell comes to Middlebury
from his country home at Argyle, n,
Y, near Glens Falls. His early educa-
ton was received in the public schools

the former, and studied under private
teachers of voice in Boston and New

church singer and a director Of choirs'
and has studied directing under some
of the best leaders Of chorus in this
country Mr. Bssell plans to make
Middlebury his home and to open
studio for private students Of voice, in
addition to his work as choral director
at the college.
Plans are being made for the develop
ment of vocal music at the college and
further announcements will be made
when they are fully formulated

The Middlebury fire alarm was
sounded at 2 o'clock this morning due
to excitement over the burning insola-

town hall. The alarm aroused a num-
Der of people from their beds at just
the time that the lights all over the
village were turned out on account of
the wire trouble. It.was, however, only
few minutes when the excitement had
died away and the "all out" signal had
been sounded

AVIATOR JONES
IS DUE TOMORROW
'lContinued from page one

Continued from page one
Middlebury, Jones suffered no set backs
in his plans, which were in fact ior a
leisurely cruise from New York to
Middlebury. He left the Roosevelt
field at Mineola, l. l., just outside
New York City limits at about 10
o'clock Yesterday morning. He set out
in hundred horse power Curtiss BIZ
plane of the J. N. 4 type which is the
stvle of machine used in training the
American aviators. As a passenger he
carries Ralph H. Mann who is Presi-
dent of the Park Trust Co, of Wor-
cester, Mass, and who is a keen aerial
enthusiast Mr.. Mann claims the dis
tinction of having been the first banker
to conduct business by airplane. Last
spring he desired to make hurried trip
from Worcester to the Chase National
Bank in New York and in order to keep
his appointment he asked Jones, who
was in Worcester on an exhibition flight,
TO take him over to New York, as he
did. Mr.. Mann is graduate OF the
University of Vermont, and it is under
stood he will have Jones' after the exer-
cises at Middlebury, carry him to Bur
lington to participate in the Commence
ment there.
The start of Joness $50 mile fight
from New York to Middlebury yester-
dav was without exciting incident ex-
cept that it saw the departure Of a
number of other aviators for Com
mencement trips to other colleges. The
fog which had rested over Roosevelt
field lifted about 10 o'clock and when
the plane took the air the sky was
cloudless. To the newspaper men who
were present Jones said the trip to
Middlebury could easily be made di-
rectlv in about three and half hours,
but he intended a leisurely voyage
which did include stops at Poughkeep-
sic Albany, and Glens Falls, he ar
irving at the latter place last night
where he sent The Register a message
that he would be here this morning. At
Glens Falls, however, he had made the
error of landing on the wrong field and
had some slight delay in transferring to
another field where his high test gaso-
line could be secured. He said the
plan of his fight would be to cross the
state line Immediately at the lower part
of Lake Champlain and follow the lake
shore north to a point about directly
west from Middlebury.
As to the possibilities of his doing
exhibition flying here, he said to The
Register:
IF the conditions are good and the
landing field is o. K. l will probably
dc some flying while IN Middlebury
am not planning to give any aerial
exhibition for the machine is not pro-
perly equipped for stunt flying and in
commercial aviation. we try to get
away from stunts"

and a student at the University OF Yer

when a bolt of lightning passed within
a few feet of him, knocking him un-
conscious.
He was visiting at E. E. Wright's
farm just east of Brandon village for
the weekend At about 1890 o'clock
one of the worst electric storms OF the
season occurred. The young man was
sitting on the porch watching the cleo
trical display, when bolt OF lightning
came between him and a large collie
dog, crouching on the ground just in
front OF him.
He was rendered unconscious by the
flash and the dog was unable to walk
for several hours. There was no dam
age to the house or out buildings.

For with all the reverence in the

in giving it he was giving to a cause

objects fashioned by skillful fingers

he has contributed to the store of

Hendersonville. Quiet and seeking

to the village now grown into a town,
where the past and the present
strangely meet. Far back in the
mountains he found a bed of potter-s
clay and there, close by a tall pine
standing solitary and apart from its
fellows, he built a modest cabin. From
the clay he fashions with a marvellous
skill and cunning articles of so rare
design and beautiful colors that nren
often pay substantial sums of money
for them. In those earlier days the
village was a pleasant place, its wide
