The supper was a great success as

toward 5000 was taken in. After supper
came the dance and everything moved
along in a quiet and orderly fashion until
some of the large number who came
from Massachusetts, warmed up by the
liquid refreshments which they brought,
became loud-mouthed in the dining room.
| This was about ] O'Clock this morning,
and those in charge of the affair, who
were disgusted with the actions of the
outsiders and were doing all they could
to maintain order, called on Sheriff
Frank l.. Wellman of BrattleborO, who
was in the dance hall upstairs. The Off
Ger visited the dining room and on his
return to the dance hall a fight had just
started between two young men. Sheriff

boT-PrOminent Men Endorse the
Recommendations

BOSTON. Oct. 29.-Industrial homes
and gardens are to be one of the major
elements of the many factors that make
for success in future manufacturing in
the opinion of the special committee
which submitted a report today to the
Associated Industries of Massachusetts
at its annual meeting b. Preston Clark
of the Plymouth Cordage Co. was chair
man of the committee and among other
members were Henry F. Dennison of the
Dennison Mfg. Co., and Richard H. Rice
of the General Electric Co.
4 hundred years ago the great bulk of
Massachusetts citizens were home and
land owners, but today while accurate
figures are not available, said the report,
it Is safe to say that less than five per
cent of the industrial workers of the
state own their own homes. Aside from
the actual moneys worth of the food
that could be grown the report found a
garden to be of value in giving the
worker "a chance to use the extra time
the shorter day of labor brings.

GOVERNOR FACING
A DIFFICULT TASK
Would Keep Down Expenses, act
Maintain Efficiency. His work
On Budget.

When Governor Richie under
takes to complete his budget he
will find he has tackled Il mans size
job. With few exceptions all of the
institutions are applying for more
money than they have been receiv-
ing. Some need additional equip
ments, and nearly every one is urg-
ing that the cost Of maintenance is
so much greater than heretofore
that there is absolute need of assist
ance to meet the additional expense
entailed and unless the state pro-
vides more funds the work must be
curtailed.
If the institutions are to main
tain the standard of efficiency they
have attained it will be absolutely
necessary to provide the means.
This must be borne in mind when
the pruning knife is applied. No
doubt the Governor, upon whom
rests the responsibility of deciding
On the amounts to be appropriated
will move slowly before arriving at
conclusion. To obtain the neces-
sary information to guide him in
making estimates he has already
started his Investigations. By be-
ginning thus early in the session he
should be in position to have the
budget in good shape in time for the
committees to give it consideration.
Under the law the amounts set
aside may not be increased by the
Legislature, but they may be dimin-
ished. 1t is not likely however that
any material changes will be made
