Johnson Man Crushed in Mine.

The body of Gordon Emerson was
taken form the cave-in at the tale
mine of the American Mineral Co. in
johnson on Friday, after II men had
worked like mad ever since Wednes-
day afternoon TO extricate the en-
tombed miner. The cave-in of hun
dreds of tons of ro.k occurred at d
o'clock on Wednesday afternoon and
Emerson must have been instantly
killed, as his body was almost cut in
two. lie never knew what struck
HIM: His head was badly crushed.
Shifts of IL men had labored in
cessantly removing the big rocks.
which had to be lifted II feet to pet
them away from the head of the
mine: 1t was a terrific job to clear a
way in the mine tunnel, but there was
a small chance that the man might
not have been killed.
AT the time of the cave-in Emerson
was working at the head of the mine
and two other men were not far
away These men saw signs OF what
was impending and jumped to safety.
The body of Emerson was dis,oy-
cred at II o'clock Thursday night

COUNTY TEACHERS MEET
CONTINUED from Page One.)

The address of Miss Florence Hale
scheduled to follow the spelling match
because of the lack of time was post
poned until the evening session ana
adjournment was then taken. many
of the teachers took the opportunity
to visit the Orleans schools and attend
the reception in the Junior Senior
high school building where very en-
iovable time was had through the
courtesv of the Orleans teachers, 9TH
ers looked up their lodgings IN the
nrivate homes of Orleans citizens
that had been graciously opened to the
numerous visitors.
The evening session was opened
by a vocal solo by Prin. Robert Mer-
ril of Barton after which Miss Flo
renee Hale, supervisor of rural schools
of Maine addressed the convention,
her subject being, The School, an In
depreciation of Democracy" This ad-
dress brimfuI of optimism, cheerful
ness and enthusiasm, was an 1nSplra-
ton to all who attended. If anyone
thinks for a minute that woman is
out of place and undressing as
public speaker, he should have heard
Miss Hale's remarks. After compll-
menting the committee for the success
of the spelling contest and the en-
enthusiasm of the contestants, Miss
Hale defined democracy as the ability
of person to be able to live freely,
comfortably and happily with other
members of society. If the children
of today are to learn this lesson they
should experience it first hand from
the teacher. To instill this princl-
pie in the minds of the children, the
teachers nlatform must have, tIrst
cheerfulness and optimism through
the appreciation of the small things,
cultivate loyalty to the teachers of
the school, state and nation; second,
learn the meaning of the word to-
gether, the teachers should band
together for progress in education.
Third, create ambition in the pupils.
Too many pupils are satisfied to just
get by whereas they should try to
excel. Take an interest in each childs
future and try to help him realize
his ambitions. Throw heredity aside
and try to help the unattractlve pu-
pill, the black sheep as well as the
white. Do not let your mother heart
shrivel UP for in each child there is
somewhere the seed of nobility. In
closing Miss Hale gave us an example
of the application of her beliefs, the
result OF IHeSe teachings III IilS lit
of Marion Leroy Burton, recently ell
ected president of Michigan Univer-
sity, how through the inspiration of
his mother and teachers, DR.. Burton
had steadily forged ahead until he
stands today a leader in education.
The final words of Miss Hale consti-
tuted thought which each teacher
should cherish. The real interpreter
of democracy is the teacher although
she may be unheralded and unsung
Miss Philips, supervisor of music
in the Newport and Derby schools
rendered two vocal selections which
were much appreciated. Mrs. Geo
Smiley of Montpelier, state manager
of war savings urged IN short ad.

vanad1um Highly Important.

For the latest types of engineering
works, such as airplanes, submarines,
torpedoes and similar work, the pos
session of a material of high resist
ance to stresses Of all kinds enables
some of the most difficult elements of
the work to be solved. While the ap-
plication Of vanadium to steel does
this, and thus constitutes at present
its most important use, it has also
marked influence upon cast iron and
upon copper.
