EDUCATION IN 1929 AND NOW

Ona Of; the first things the Pilgrims
did when they settled in New Eng
land s,as to establish free. peolie
schools for their children. In the zoo
wears since they came to these shores
tic country has grown amazingly
has become great democracy.
,pui OF its progressive ideals ana
achievements. Owen r. LoEcjoy. OF.
the National Child Labor Committee
points out how the nation has failed
ia tire matter of education. IN h.a
cn6ual report Of the committees
work he says: :
There are. at least 5,500,OOo iisit-
crates in, the United States. Nearly
one-fIth. Of al American children be
tween. 10 and Is are out Of school
earning their, own money"
Such progress as has been made in
nanstty and transportation in the
,ha:rtaining Of high standards OF
living, etc, is shamed by the ncgiec:
81 the nations voting citizens. The
klerilffns were {; right in. the emphasis
they placed ,upon education for chill
siren. Their. descendants are wrong
when they permit SO many TO go, IN
educated: into jobs, which develop II
tie sill or Initiative and offer littlr
opportunity for. advancement

Permanent County Agent Secured.

While H. F. Johnson, who has been
county agent for three years, has left
for similar work in Connecticut, the
executive committee has secured a
man equally as good, Wesley 7. Abel
of Randolph Center. Mr.. Abel was
graduated from the State Agricultur-
al College of the University of Yer
mont in 1916, and since that time has
been engaged as Instructor at the
Randolph Agricultural school and as
manager of the school farm, has had
charge of all the farm operations. He
has also been connected with the very
successful cooperative potato growers
association of that place Thus Mr..
Abel has both the education and
practical experience to carry on the
work here very successfully and it is
expected that it will soon go on with
very little interruption. Until he can
begin his duties Mr.. Hardy Merrill of
Craftsbury will act as temporary
county agent.

1921 of Barton academy Tuesday eve
ming before a packed house in Seay-
er's opera house merited the highest
approval of all spectators. The play
from the overture to the drop of the
curtain on Act " was run off in
professional style without the need OF
the prompter's services in a single in
stance. The setting, costuming and
staging were ably handled and re-
and directors. The part of the audi
ence in the rear of the theatre had
some difficulty in distinguishing clear
ly the words of the players, owing to
the peculiar acoustic properties of the
theatre and the quaint speech of Pill
grim times, in which the play was
written.
This year is the tercentenary OF
the landing of our Pilgrim fathers In
this country. Schools and colleges
are observing by play and pageant
this anniversary year. "Rose o. Ply
mouth Town is one of the best OF
these Pilgrim plays. Historic Miles
Standish is one of the characters. The
presentation of this quaint play by
the local academy students will COM
pare favorably with similar produc-
tions by high school or even college
dramatic clubs, given this year, dea+
ing with the same theme.
In so well-balanced a cast, it is diff
ficult to single out for special appro-
baton one character from the others.
| Dorothy Emerson, in the title role,
made a sweet heroine, while Clifton
! Drew, as Garrett Foster, her dare
devil lover, played his part with an
appearance of recklessness that con-
tributed much to the play. Florence
Cook, as Aunt Resolute of the Fep-
perry tongue, scored distinct hit with
the audience. Miles Standish roared
in a manner befitting our conception
of that doughty soldier, and the 9TH
f ers discharged their respective parts
with equal facility.
Members of the class of 1921 acted
as ushers and presided over the re-
freshment table. Many school BAN
ners and other tasty decorations In
orange and black made the occasion
distinctly school affair.
After the play, dancing until one
Twas enjoyed, the music being fur
inished by the New Harmony orches-
ira
The thought and careful attention
to detail that the production showed
is tribute to the work of Miss Storrs
of the school faculty, who had the
play in charge, Leigh Comstock, the
student manager, and Mildred Ford
who had charge of the properties

CAMP wEsTMORE AFFAIRS
Bankruptcy Matter Closed up and
Plans for Operation Complete.

Bankruptcy matters in connection
with Camp Westmore have been clos
ed up and plans perfected for its oper-
alton as a girls camp under exper-
fenced management.
The sale of the personal property
Monday by B. F. Jackman, trustee,
was held and B. o. Smith of Orleans
bid off the property at $5675. 1t is
understood he sold the property later
in the day to Robert r. Goodman, the
owner of Camp Winona on Lake
Morey and that Mr.. Goodman and c.
H. Dudley Of Hanover, N. H., will
operate Camp Westmore this season.
This move probably means the con-
tinuance of the camp upon a perma-
nent and sound basis, and the final
disposal of all matters connected with
the bankruptcy proceedings.
