GOLDEN
WEDDING
LvndonvilIe Friends Pay
Honor to Mr.. and Mrs.
Edwin X. Hall

Fifty peaceful years of matrimony
form a rare record in these days, and
such an occurrence deserves celebra-

Crescent Lodge of Masons, and the
Esther Chapter of the Eastern Star,
OF their members, Mr.. and Ms. Ed

of this week, a reception was staged
in the Masonic Hall, which proved to
be a complete surprise to the BRIDE
and groom concerned. Mrs. Travor
G.. Blaisdell, Mrs. Hermon SquireS,
Mrs. Fred Shonyo and Mrs. Perley
Harris of East Burke were the COM
mittcc in charge, and under their di-
rcction the Masonic dining room was
gaiy decorated with gold and tinsel,
a program was arranged, and every
thing passed off most successfully.
As this was the evening of the regu-
lar mceting, of the Eastern Star,
Mrs. Hill made a special effort to at
tend. regardless of the very rainy
weather. About the time the meet
ING should close, Mr.. Hill, with his
neighbor, Mr.. Shonyo. drove down
town. intending to bring home the
two ladies. When they reached the
hall, however, such inducements were
offered that they decided to remain
and help celebrate with the hundred
or more Masons and ladies who were
in attendance. Mr.. and Mrs. Hill
were somewhat taken aback, but soon
rallied to the occasion, and were not
too fustered to enjoy the program
which included several selections by
the Masonic orchestra, five pieces,
Nj. Aubin, violin. Charles Stevens,
piano. Leon Curtice. cello, H. p.

MORE CANDIDATES
FOR VILLAGE
TRUSTEES IN 1921
Messrs. CosgrOve and Gilfil-
Ian Withdraw, but Others
Suggested

Interest in municipal politics as
Monday nights caucus approach
es continues very keer and the
townspeople are making an unusual
effort to secure a strong board Of
trustees. Among the names already
mentioned have been Charles J. Gil
fillan and James Cosgrove. Mr.. Gil
tillan says It will be impossible for
him to consider the place because he
will be away from home so much
with Federal contracts and other
work already started. Mr. Cosgrove
writes the Caledonian- Record very
good letter saying he is not candi-
date and suggests the name of Will
liam j. Swan, a contractor who is
used to handling large jobs and
where many men are employed.
Other names that have been suggest
ed are Preston +. May. a member Of
the present board and Fred S. Harri-
man, member of a former board.
Mr.. Cosgrove's letter is full of sug-
gestions and information regarding
changing the terms of service of the
trustees and here follows:
In your issue of the 18th you were
very kindly mentioned me as a cam
didate for village trustee. | was
quite fiattered at seeing my name "in
print" but | wish to inform you and
my good friends who have suggested
my name, that | am not a candidate

| agree fully with Mr.. Fuller that
party politics should not enter in
choosing village and town offices. 1t
makes no difference to me what
mans politics are o. whether or noti
he is a good fellow, if he will make
a good village or town officer.
There has been more or less un-
faYorable criticism OF the present
botn Of trustees. particularly re-
gafding their handling Of the village
streets. / do not think that the trus-
tees are entirely responsible for the
present deplorable condition of the
streets of the village, as this has been
a difficult year to procure materials
and labor. believe, however, that
in 1921 it will be possible to procure
ample materials and labor for street
work. What we need in St. Johnsbuly
most Of all at present is at least one
trustee who is capable Of directing
the building and maintaining Of the
village streets. 4 man to do this in

crete and | respectfully suggest Mr..

LEGION BEATS
WOODSVILLE
36 TO 70
Real Thrills in Fast Game
Played by CiOsely-Match-
ed Teams

When it comes TO thrillers, you
can depend upon an evening of nerve
exhiliration by attending a basket
ball game at the Armory. This was
specially true at Thursday nights
game between the Independents of
Woodsville and the ST. Johnsbury
American Legion. The Legion won
bv the score of Sc to 20, but that is
not the story OF the game. 1t was
the constant rolling of the ball about
the rims of the baskets, for near
scores, the fast and accurate passing
and equally strenuous blocking, that
made one feel the game was never
safe no matter what the score, and
which altogether proved one of The
fastest and cleanest games of bas-
ket ball that the fans have Witnessed
this year.
1t is detracting no credit from the
st. Johnsbury team to tell Of the
fastness and excellent playing Of the
visitors The team outWeighed the
St. Johnsbury boys by so per cent.
But when it came to tussle it was
marvel TO the spectators the pep
the Youngsters Of the Legion team
could show Connor, Fisk, Dumas
and Clark, all medium-weight but
very cordy youngsters would mix it
up with Sweeney, Carlson and Smith,
the strong men of the WoodSville
team and every time the local boys
generally got the best of the scrim
make.
The marvel of the Legion team is
their speed. Their fast passing, su-
perior head work and speed upon the
.hssr makes them the equal or sup
clior of any of their heavier oppon-
ents. Gibson, the strong man of the
Legion team, is also a speed artist
and frequently when he mixed it up
with hts opponents he l!ud- the best
of the scrap.
To speak of the Legion team is to
speak of them as a team. There is
not a "misft" in this fast five. 1t
is their team work that wins then
victories. 1t is to be hoped by every
fan in st. Johnsbury that this happy
combination Of players can be kept
together for the season and if the
Legion boys enter the State Basket
ball league Of the American Legion
we would be glad to place oul money
on the home outfit.
While Connor and Fisk made five
baskets each, Clark was a close run
ncr up with four and Dumas with
three. But none of these baskets, with
one or two exceptions, were the re-
suit of individual skill. They were the
work of skilled and fast passing
which landed the ball into the
"shootcrss" hands near the basket,
While Gibson did not have a tally
to his credit he was there every
minute and his game was equal to
that of anyone on the team.
The first five minutes of the game
was without a score. 1t was the very
fastest kind of basket ball The ball
shot up and down the floor with
rapidity neither side be-
