Arthur Boucher Takes
Family to Springfield

Arthur Boucher, for ten years en-
ployed in the composing room of the
Caledonian, left today for Springfield,
Mass, with his wife and son, Eugene,
where he will begin employment with
new job printing concern in that
city, where his father and brothers
are employed
Mr.. Boucher is one of the best job
pressmcn that Northeastern Vermont
has ever produced. As a newspaper
pressman he had no peers. He coaxed
and cajoled the old Caledonian press
through many trials and tribulations
but seldom missed train with the
afternoon edition.
Mr.. Boucher goes into larger field
where his speciality Tor high grade
press work will undoubtedly bring
him larger financial reward. He goes
with the very best wishes of success
of the publisher and employees of
the Caledonian, although they all feel
deep regret at the loss of so genial
and competent a fellowworker

LincOIn's Birthday Thoughts

Perhaps the two qualities in
Abraham Lincoln's life that win tho
most interest, were his broad toler-
ance and his democracy. If he
could have lived through his presiden-
tial term, the bitter estrangement
between South and North would new
cr have developed.
Most people see only the view
point of their own locality, and can
not grasp that Of some other environ
ment. Lincoln's broad sympathy was
able to imagine how he would have
felt under other circumstances. He
would have found means to win back
promptly the affection OF the South
ern people.
Today sectional spirit has gone.
But there ar other bitternesses that
run on different lines, creating class
feeling and separating friends and
ncighbors into hostile groups. Only
by the Lincoln spirit, the comprehen-
sion OF the point of view and circum-
stances Of those living under other
environments, can this country avoid
social chasms.
The great marvel of Lincoln's ca
rccr has always been his rise to such
heights of eminence and achievement
from the most lowly and humble orr
gin. 1t is for all time a matchless
example to the youth of humble
homes.
The youth who would climb in
this country from a lowly home, will
find far more helping hands than
ever assisted Lincoln. Every school
house may be path to greatness, if
one can but grasp his opportunities.
The boy who like Lincoln spends
spare time in reading the Bible and
Shakespeare and the great builders
of history, will not be commonplace.
It sometimes seems as if the earn
est boy from the humble home had a
better chance than the son of wealth,
since he has had to learn the lesson
of work and patient effort. Everyone
is glad to see him rise, and pleased
to push him along.

PRESS COMMENT
lBurlington Free Pressl

1t is not uncommon for man to
be belovcd-most men gather about
them sorle circle in which they find
measure Of kindly regard and a de-
gree of protection against the world
without. But it is not for many men
that the cup of affection is filled so
full or filed by so many hands as
it has been for Charles Edward Put
ney, who died at his home, So Cliff
street, after two weeks illness, fol-
lowing a general breakd down.
1t was the glory Of some ancient
cities thai they needed no walls, be
cause the quality of their own sons
was their sufficient protection Mi.
Putney had that within him which
disalmed The world. He was a fine
and minute scholar; he was a patient
and considerable instructor; he was a
wise and sympathetic friend; he was
high and noble man.
There are few whose names could
bring so cordial a response from so
wide a circle. In the many years dur
ing WHICH llC SCI NCtl % a. ttetNiiCit INV
many boys and girls passed through
his hands! Upon each he left some
unprecedented something of his
own personality-to be carried with
them broadcast. And how whole
some a thing that was, and how well
for the nation that spirit like that
should be disseminated. They came
back some times. They did not for
get. They bore witness to the high
ceived. And it was the reward of his
value Of the gift which they had re-
life to know of their gratitude.
But nobody knows or can know
how much he has contributed through
them to his country and the world.
That is the characteristic of the
teacher; to find the fultilment of his
life in the lives of others. He sows
the seed. The harvest is found, not in
his own field, but there a little and
there little never gathered to-
gcther to be estimated, but perhaps
beyond computation in its total
aomunt.

THE GOOSE WITH GOLDEN
EGGS

The absurdity Of Bolshevism, Com
munism and all other isms which
preach the overthrow of Government,
Private Property, Money, Law and
Order are clearly shown by Senator
William H. King in an article IN
Hearst's Magazine for January. 1t
is simply an exposition of some OF
the fundamental laws of economies
in other words plain common sense
but in these days of wild theories, it
would be a good thing for the coun-
try at large if every citizen would
read and reflect on these same abso-
Lutte laws and the futility of trying to
ignore or overthrow them.

Marrying Mary Is a
Distinct Hit
Continued from page one)

Mrs. E. E. Sargent got lot of
good laughs as Miss Whitcomb, the
maidenly housekeeper who was not
| adverse to being wooed. She gave
"Clcopatterer" as speciality and got
some good laughs.
Fred L. Follensby, as Peter Jones,
the porter, had very difficult part
but he did admirably well. Harold
c. Abbott was excellent as the West
erner "Buckskin Ben" His acting
could not have been improved upon.
From musical standpoint the en-
tire performance was thoroughly en-
joyable. The hit of the show was
"The Song of the Rose" as sung by
Miss Lillian Richards, assisted by a
group of Northeastern Velmont's
prctticst girls. Miss Richards was at
her best in this number and her rich
soprano voice filled the theater. The
girls presented a delightful picture
in their evening gowns and their
II uplHSo WtIt ClltCllNt III TIE VAIL
colored light thrown upon them.
Two numbers of real Western fla
vor we're "The Cowboy Wedding" and
"The Medicine Man." The solo part
of the former was sung by Bernie
Hall and assisted by group Of cow
boys and cowgirls, the number went
over with a "whoop." "The Medicine
Man as sung by Paul Falnham was
good
Allen Hunter and Miss Richards
made an excellent opening with
Summer Girlies' assisted by the
chorus. The "Moonlight Serenade"
by Miss Thelma Roman, assisted by a
sextette, was excellent.
"Some Pretty DOLL was an excel
lent number as sung by Walter Cox
assisted by Miss Leona Tremblay and
Miss Doline Drouin and a group of
pretty young girls. Mr.. Cox sang in
fine voice and put lot of pep" into
the number. Miss Kathleen Chaffee
and her eight snowballs were good in
"The Girls from Dixie" "The
Clowns" brought down the house
with laughter by their funny antics.
The finale "The Spirit of Americ'
brought over 100 young people on the
stage in a patriotic picture. Miss
Drouin sang in very pleasing voice
the solo part and made pretty pic
ture.
The performance reflected much
credit upon Mr.. and Mrs Harry E.
Gage of Burlington who had the work
of drilling and presenting the piece.
The entire show went off with snap
that was highly commendable. The
selection of Charging Mary for a
local talent performance was an eX-
cellent one.

gram as given in The Caledonian-
Record two corrections have been

WASHINGTON, March 26' (by Asso- ciated Press) In speech in the sen ate today Senator Borah (Republican) of Idaho said that the war protiteers had combined to control the Repub- lican and Democratic national conven- r1ons
 The campaign expenditures of some of the candidates, he said presented a shameless situation. The managers for General Wood, he said claim that Governor Lowden is spending more money than is Wood.
 Senator Borah said the candidates should tell who supplies the money they are spending.
