Glass of Shattered
Windshield

A Studebaker car owned by vii
liam Killelea, prescription clerk at
blighams pharmacy, and New Jer-
sey car bearing the number Ib1 ,9.5,
coilided at the corner OIL Eastern
avenue and Main streets, St. Johns
Dury, at one o'clock this afternoon.
The New Jerse car was FORD.
hiiielea S car struck the Ford along
the running board crashing into the
rear wheel and hating both cars. / he

and the mud guard OF one side was
crushed.
The New Jersey car was occupied
by Mr.. and Mrs. Nelden Reilley of

look hospital.
Nj. klllelea said of the accident:
Il was coming Eastern avenue at
a fair speed on account of the grade
and was just making the corner when

Ford car swerved directly ito me-"

ed the Ford to be on the wronr side
OF the street. Whether the driver was
confused by the apDRach of the 9TH

WANTS ALUMNI
TO RALLY TO
VAIL SCHOOL
Says the School Faces {
Crisis Which Alumni
Must Face

The Caledonian-R Record has rccciv-
ed fov publication a letter from on'
! of the alumni of the Vail AgIicultu-
raj school which here follows:
Nj. Carroll NJ. Pike,
Lyndon Center Vt.
Dear Nj Pike
Before me there is a clipping from
the Boston Herald OF today with the
rather startling title: state to Aban-
don Vail Farm School and you can
rest assured that was utterly sur
priscd.
It now seems to me that concerted
action should be taken Immediately
by the members Of our alma mater
and place before the State LeglSla-
.ure. which convenes in January next,
paper which will set forth correc.
analysis of the school with reserva-
tions and eliminations. Ot course,
VIC all know that the School as it now
stands with its vast eXpanse OF land,
and sales OF the outlying farms and
farms and buildings is a great eN-
pcnse, but with certain reductions
and sales of the outlying farms and
property a model and economical
farm school can be built. still be
lievc in the School and that it will
live; and it can only live on the
strength. push, and energy of each
and every member OF the Aggle
chool
The clipping states that the School
has been visited by representative
farmers,-and decided that il would
be the best policy--to abandon the
School. | wonder who has the pre-
sumptuousness to make such state
ment; it is very misleading and a pre-
posterous set Of political uncertain
tics. The farmers with sons who are
to manage their farms and be the fu-
ture owners would never consider the
abandonment of a school where the
son would receive an education unap-
preached in any other like school.
And I doubt if any Vermont farmer
would stand for such statements.
[ should hate to see the noble work
of Mr.. Vail that was consecrated to
the farm boz Of Vermont abandoned
by ways and means of some willy poll
tician
Indeed wo face a GREAT cricis of the
School, and in order to rctard the
compelling force Of the coniuncturc
we must use our combined efforts in

Why Drink Water With Meals,

Contrary TO long standing theory,
water taken with meals Is now rec
commended. For years II has been
taught that water should not be drunk
with meals, because such procedure
weakens the secretion OF gastric juice,
also that digestion would be delayed
or Inhibited. But II has now been
proved that the drinking OF water with
meals stimulates the secretion OF gas.

OF the growth OF intestinal bacteria.
that II produces an improved liver
