AUTOMOBILES
COLLIDE

The citizens of Lyndorville are
now rcveling in automobile accidents
to almost as great an extent as those
of St. Johnsbury. On Thursday after
noon, within half an hour of each
other, there were two collisions on
Depot street, both happening before
numerous witnesses on the street. In
neither accident was an person in
iured, but because no person was in
jured does not indicate that it is any
safer for travellers and pedestrians in
Lyndonville streets.
Ernest Martin was coming up
Broad trcet at a moderate rate OF
speed and at the intersection of De-
pot street met Robert Pierce. Pierce,
in his Ford, though that tn other was
going to side swipe him, and made
an effort to turn to the right and get
clear, but failed. The two cars col
lidcd, resulting in broken wind
shield and damaged radiator for the
Ford, but no great damage to the
other and heavier car. Both cars
were able to drive on under their
own power.
The other accident was the result
of pure carclcssness according to wit
ncsses. A Ford started to turn
around on Depot street and it's driv-
cr, without due care as to where he
was going ran directly in the path
of another car coming from behind
and was struck. Neither car was
damaged much because of the slow
speed at which they were travelling,
and the driver of both cars, whose
identitv is unknown went on their
waX as soon as they could.
The automobile accidents are in
crcasing daily in this part of the
state, with at least one a day COM
inc to the attention of the Caledon-
an-Record While some are adiudg-
ed inevitable, the majority seem to
be due to carelessness on the mart of
at least one of the drivers.

Pays His Fine for Speed
ing on Motorcycle

Charles J. Batchelder, formerly of
Derby Line, but now working in St.
Johnsbury, was brought into NUM-
cipal court Monday afternoon and
charged by States Attorney Camp
bell with careless and negligent driv-
ing of his motorcycle on the after
noon of Tuesday, Aug. 8, on the
East st. Johnsbury road. MI Batch
elder pleaded ouilty and was fined
$50 and costs, amounting to $8.75,
which he paid. Judge Frye reminded
him that it was reprehensible thing
for anyone to be speeding and the
youn" man admitted that he made a
mistake in living another name at
the time of the accident and that he
was riding too fast. He admitted that
he was ridin~ 30 miles an hour and
said that he and Howard Boycc were
irving out their machines. Mr..
Batcheldcr has had his license indie
finitely suspended bv the Secretary
of State and has sold his machine.

Discuss Financing the Vail
Agricultural School

At the meeting of the State Board
of Control in Montpelier Tuesday
members of the State Board of Edu-
cation appeared relative to financing
the Vail School of Agriculture at
Lyndonville the coming year. The
educational department wanted advice
in the matter of Mrs. Theodore N.
Vail having recently decided the Vail
mansion to the state. The State
Board of Education felt that it de-
veloped a problem upon which more
information and authority was neces-
sary before they undertook supcrvis-
ion of the school. Later in the day
the Board of Education met in their
Offices to consider how funds could be
provided for conducting the school
the coming fall. The matter was left
fer definite settlement at the next
meeting of the Board of Education.

American Legion
Building Fund Boosted

The Metal Trades Shows which
gave their entertainment on Gilman's
Meadow on Portlant Street last week
under the auspices of the local post
of the American Legion increased
the building fund of w. R. Knapp
post by approximately $500 under
the terms of the agreement with
them. The veterans already had
about $500 set aside for the purpose,
and this money has boosted it quite a
bit. The idea behind the fund is a
home for the veterans of St. Johns
bury, which would contain many of
the features of club house. The
cost of such a building is estimated
at several thousand dollars, and it
realization is still in the distant fu-
ture, but all the soldiers feel that it
is worth working for regardless OF
how slowly the fund grows.
The expenses of the show were
rather heavy, and some of them de-
volved upon the American Legion.
They received about $500 under the
arrangement of receiving Is per cent
of the receipts. indicatinp that about
$4,000 were taken in. That the show
managers were as STRAIGHT and as
honest as could be desired was vouch-
ed for by the man VINO handled the
money for the American Legion.
They settled up every night while
the shows were in rropress. The
advertising which the Legion sold in
the show programs just about paid
for their part of the operating ex-
penses, so that the income from the
shows was clear profit.
The committee in charge of the
show was headed by Paul Gilman and
included John Tinker, Louis Kimball
in addition. There were numerous
subcommittee.

THINKS THE
BIG TROUT WAS
ASTEELHEAD
J. w. TitcOmb Writes In
formingly of the Big Fish
Caught at S. J. Center

An interesting contribution in re-
gard to the kind of trout that was
recently caught by George Astlc at
st. Johnsbury Center has come to
the Caledonian-Rccord from John w.
Titcomb, fish culturist for the New
York conservation commission at AL
bany and well remembered as the
former director Of the United States
Hatchery at st. Johnsbury and State
Fish and Game Commissioner. The
letter follows:
Editor Caledonian-Rccord:
Not long ago, received marked
copy of your issue of June Both for
which l am indebted to you OF to
some one interested in the reported
catch of a six pound trout at St.
Johnsbury Center, and | wish to ac-
knowledge your courtesy in sending
the paper if you sent it, and would
have acknowledged it earlier had l
not been on tour of inspection trips
about the state. AS there has been
some discussion as to the species
caught, let me state that l do not re-
call that the stream has ever been
stocked with brown trout. There
were several paintings of rainbow or
steclhead trout from the little hatch
cry at Lyndon Center and l should
be inclined to think that the trout
caught by Mr.. Astle was steelhead
trout.
| see there has been some discus
sion as to the difference between a
steelhead and a rainbow trout and
will explain that a steelhead may be
likened to a searun rainbow. There
arc several varieties of the trout of
the Pacific slore commonly called
rainbow trout, then there is trout
closely resembling the rainbow
which goes to sea like the salmon and
returns to the fresh water streams to
spawn: this is called the steelhead.
Some ichthyologists regard the steel
head as merely one 3f the varieties
of the rainbow trout; however, it
grows much larger than does the
which remains naturally in
fresh waters. In our eastern waters
the two fishes have been introduced
indiscriminately to one and the same
waters with the result that it is prac-
tica1ly impossible to distinguish be-
tween them. b.
The German brown trout is quite
prevalent in this state and has ruined
r,anv native trout streams. However
there are manv laroe omen waters the
Temperature of which is considerably
higher than is favorable to the native
brook trout where the German brown
trout has become established and fur
nishes good fishing. They are some
times caught weighing over ten

"Thc Cross of Christ to Il W.

MUNICIPAL
BUILDING FOR
i. ST. JOHNSBURY
Suggestions to Be Made that
the Billiard Property
Might Be Secured

Following the conference Tuesday
night with the village trustees and
directors of tho Commercial Club on
the fire situation there was a most
profitable discussion as to the advi-
stability of st. Johnsbury securing
the Bullard house ON Eastern avenue
for a municipal buildir' The sug-
gestion was made by one of the
trustees that the acquisition of this
property would provide for cen
trail fire station, police headquarters
and lookup, and Offices for The
town and village.
The central fire station is now on
government land and will have to be
moved somewhere whenever the new
Federal building is erected. 1t was
suggested at the conference that the
fire station could be easily moved to
the Bullard lot and still be centrally
located in the village.
The residence could easily be al
tered for town and village offices,
and the small octagonal building
could be utilized for the police mead
quarters and lookup with minor al
terations. The Commercial Club di-
rectors were informed that the owner
of this property, Mrs. Stapes.; would
sell the buildings and land thereon
for municipal buildino at reason
able price.
All present were much interested
in the "~oosition. and inasmuch as
a committee has alreadv been ap-
pointed 20 report on a municipal

COMMISSIONER

A conference was held in the rooms
of the St. Johnsbury village trustees
Tuesday evening between the trus-
tees and the directors of the Com
mercial Club relative to the present
situation at the central fire station.
The directors were received most
courteously by the trustees and the
situation was discussed very frank
ly by both sides.
1t became clear that probably with
in 4S hours, or assuredly before the
end of the week, the municipal fire
force would be fully and efficiently
manned. The trustees also announc-
ed that Deputy Fire Commissioner
Preble of Montpelier had visited St.
Johnsbury Tuesday and after thor
ough investigation of the situation
had wired the Bo:<on Underwriters
Association that the village of St..
Johnsbury was properly covered with
no extra hazard.

GENIUS ANDCROWD'
HIT At PLAYHOUSE
ON OPENING NIGHT
Musical Temperament and Popu-
lar Adulation Are the Theme
of Comedy.
TYPICAL cOHAN EFFORT

The reopening of The Playhouse season
last night brought together a brilliant
assemblage Of Wilmington playgoers as
earnest of their satisfaction over the
passing of the "closed for the summer
sign, 20 far as plays went, and attracted
also by the element Of curiosity to see an
Offering bearing the stamp of George M.
Cohan rs producer.
The play is entitled Genius and the
Crowd and it may be said without fear
Of successful contradiction that it scored
we'll with last nights audience. Whether
it makes similar appeal on the larger
stage of New York City will be tested
out next week at the Cohan Theatre
there.
The piece is cleverly contrived to the
end of achieving popularity with movie
sated clientele. In fact, 1T may aptly
be- termed an animated film, so far ~
conception and treatment go, which is
tribute to the influence of screen upon
stage. Above all, it is triumph of stage
production, of the sort that overcomes
deficiencies in plot and players and whirls
them both along to a triumphant finale
that causes one to wonder afterward how
II WAS all done.
The apparent theme is the thoughtless-
ness Of the public of popular idol, IN
this case musician, In pushing Itself INTO
his private life TO an extent that lnterferes
with his work and finally gets on his nerves
To such an extent that he nearly wrecks his
career, in an access of temperament,
which is only ironed out by the soothing
