z AUTO THEFTS AND
z MORE BURGLARIES

The fifth burglary in Middlebury vii
lage during the past few months was
discovered Wednesday morning when
Harry Lazarowitz, proprietor of the
Middlebury Supply Store on Main
street, found that his cash drawer had
been rifed during the night and about
Sl2 taken
Entrance was gained through a rear
window in the alleyTay leading to
the marble mill, the thieves using a
ladder to reach the window. They re-
moved a portion of the wire screen as
the window had been left open for a
space of about Is inches. After re-
moving the screen they were able to
crawl through None of the goods in
the store were molested, the thieves
evidently caring only for money.
On Friday evening the residence OF
Frank A. Farnsworth on North Pleas
ant street was burglarized between s
and 9 o'clock during the absence of the
family, and about $50 stolen. The
thieves ransacked bureau drawers and
desks, throwing the contents about the
rooms throughout the house. 1t is
thought that the parties were scared
away by the early return OF Mr..
Farnsworth The thieves evidently
gained an entrance to the house by a
side door and the use of skeleton keys.
In leaving the house exit was made
through a rear door by throwing a
bolt and unlocking screen door.
The tracks of the thieves were visible
in the garden and grass, leading to
Seminary street.
While the high school graduation
exercises were in progress at the Town
Hall on Friday evening, two cars were
stolen from among number OF vehi-
cles which were parked outside the
hall. John NJ Bachulus and Morton
s. Butler, two Middlebury college stu
dents were arrested by Deputy Sheriff
Edward Higgins, near Lake Dunmore
They were brought to Middlebury
and locked UP in the Addison county
iail over night. Saturday morning
they were brought before Judge Harrie
Chase in the Addison County court,
pleaded guilty and were each fined so
and costs which they paid.
One of the stolen cars a Ford, be-
longed to parties in Benson The
other an Overland, was the property
of Wright Caswell of Middlebury

A FINE ADDRESS
BY DIR. H. E. FOSDICK

Commencement Day speakers have
been selected with such care that the
public has been led to expect exception
al inspiration from the principal ad-
dress which marks this final day OIL the
college year, and those who crowded the
Congregational Church last MONDAY
morning for the Commencement eXer-
cises were so well rewarded that 1t is
hard TO imagine how this years record

Presbyterian Church of New YORK.
wove his SMILES and illusions to the
enchantment of his audience ana
through it all held alight the torch OIL
progress and optimism in world ahairs'
The heartiest applause was accorded
seemingly from every hand, when ne
denounced the reactionaries who would
dead America back into her old poilcy
of aloofness and separation, and when
he spoke in defense of the League oil
Nations ideal.
The major portion of DR.. FosdicKs
remarkable address was as follows
The commander ol ~ ~ - F-

represent in its character domestic IN
felicities on the part of the A. E. f.
but it does represent the resiliency' the
amazing good spirit with which those
men carried on in their difficulty across
the sea and something of that spirit
which inspired them entered our hearts
who stayed back home and kept the
home fires burning. What a great
change came over our country. For a
long time now most of us have had

The Victory Come Back" of alumni
and friends included about three hun

and college crowd, probably swelled
the number to over a thousand persons
who shared some or all of the weekend
program.
The beginning was heralded by the
novelty of an airplane return OF Charles
s. ("Casey"l Jones, of the class of 1915,
who added to his distinction the record
of being the first alumnus of Midd to
ever view his alma mater from the sky

and father, Mr.. and Mrs. John Jones

stand where ranks were broken. Imme-

ginning to wonder how far they
could be made the tools of Bolshe-
vism if their chiefs should say the
word.
Bolshevism will come in the United
States if the American people want
class rule as opposed to democracy.
Bolshevism will also come for a short
time in the United States if one class
can seize and control by force the
channels of government.
Democracy and Bolshevism are as
opposite as the poles. One is rule
by the majority; the other exclusive
rule by a class. Free suffrage and
the summoning of national conven-
tons are damnable institutions from
the Bolshevist viewpoint. Bolshe-
vism fears democracy because de-
mocracy has higher ideal than Boil
shevism.-Juneau Dispatch
