Jewett was born in Weybridge. The
couple were married in Bridport Sept.
z. 1870 by the late Rev. w. W. Win
chester. The attendants at the cere-
mony were present Tuesday and as
sisted in the receiving line. The brides
maid was Miss Catherine G. Jewett

PROF. R. MCFARLAND
CHOSEN PRINCIPAL

After II years of service in the de-
partment of Pedagogy at Middlebury
College, Professor Raymond McFar-
land rendered his resignation on Sat
urday last, the same to take effect at
once. Prof. Mcfarland has accepted
the principalship of the Academy at
Saxtons River and began management
of the institution Tuesday. The school
which was founded in 1870, has been
closed since 1916 on account of the
lack of funds, An appropriation Of
100000 for the Academy by the
Northern Baptist convention has per
mitted the reopening in 1921.
Principal Mcfarland was born in
Lamoine, Maine fitted for college at
Bucksport Seminary and graduated
from Amherst College in 1897 Later
he entered Yale for special work, re-
ceiving his masters degree in 1902. He
taught in Castleton Normal School,
going from there to be principal of
Leicester Academy at Leicester, Mass,
where he remained five years until
called to be principal of the Ithaca, N.
Y, high school, with nearly 1000 stu
dents, and from there was called to
the professorship at Middlebury Col
lege, where for eleven years he has
been teaching young men and women
how to teach. He was for five years
director of the Mddlebury summer
school During the past year he served
as State Secretary OF the Inter Church
World Movement Principal McF ar
land is an author of considerable note,
among his best known books being,
History of New England Fisheries" 3"
Secondary Education in Vermont"
and "Skippr John of the Nimbus" He
is well and favorably known through
out the State and the plan of the
principal and trustees is to make
Vermont Academy a first-class fitting
school, fitting for life as well as col
lege.
All the old buildings are elready
being overhauled and improved, and a
new heating plant and dormitory for
girls will be erected before the school
opens in September, 1921. The trus-
tees and principal are insistent that
Vermont Academy shall become a
school where young men and women
may secure the best possible educa-
tlon, suited to the needs of the in
dividual pupil. Besides the regular
college preparatory courses there will
be business and vocational courses.
There will be an up-to-date agricul-
tural plant on the farm of about 200
acres owned by the academy. The
courses i'll science and mathematics will
be supplemented by mechanical draw
ing, manual training and practical
surveying Young men and women
will be trained to meet the needs of
the business world as private secre-
taries, stenographers and bookkeepers,
There will also be courses in art,
painting and drawing, vocal and in
strumental music and domestic science
The home life of boys and girls at the
academy will be guarded most care
fully so that intellectual training may
not be secured wholly to the neglect
of social and moral training.

TRAINING CAMP
AT LAKE DUNMORE

The preseason training camp Of the
Middlebury College football team
opened yesterday morning, with head
quarters at the Leggett cottage at
Lake Dunmore. Manager Noonan and
Coach Brown were on hand to welcome
the dozen players who have already an
swered the summons to prepare for the
maintenance of Middlebury supremacy
on the gridirons of the state.
Work was started Immediately
Thursday morning, as soon as the men
could get into the uniforms after break
fast. The first workout was held on
the athletic park and consisted of the
elementaries, such as falling on the
ball, punting, forward passing, starting
and the like.
Several of the veterans of the 1919
team were unable to report before the
opening of the college term, but the
following were present when the pig
skins were inflated yesterday Buster
Brown, Barney Potratz, Chuck Leon
ard, Reinbrecht, Drost, Kalin, Ashley,
Quackenbush, Brigham, Shephardson,
Mcdonald, Norton and Captain Jacko
Meade.
Stockwell, Crewdson, Robinson, Kep-
pier, Olson, Gallagher and Cabot were
among the veterans who could not come
until later.
The new men who are expected to
keep the veterans on edge to retain
their places are Kelley and Walsh who
showed great promise last year al
though they did not make the squad,
Monahan of New Britain, Conn, who
comes with a New England reputation,
Andy Lobo who is expected Sunday and
built name for himself at Drury High
School of North Adams, Mas, Soist-
man, quarterback on the New Jersey
state championship Camden High team
and Osteyee, a guard from the Troy
Conference Academy.
The team met serious loss in the
graduation of Captain "Stew" Ross,
who was a great open field runner,
"Rocky" Dake, center, with all the
strength his nickname implies and
Keck Parker, quarterback and finished
punter, the drop kicker who won the
Norwich game last year by drop from
the field in the third quarter. Another
member of the 1919 champions who will
be long remembered is Tony Goode,
fast end who by his fearlessness in
blocking punts especially in the Yer
mont game, broke up the opponents
attack and recovered for a touchdown,
Then there are others who are eX-
pected to come out for the team for
the first time in earnest this year
Heath, basketball captain is particular
ly fitted by his splendid physique for
one of the backfield positions. Donald
Ross, brother of Stew is contend
er to be reckoned with in his expected
condidacy for the quarterback position.
Sevigny and Lacy, ends, Ratti, line
man, and Geddes, half back are like
wise certain to be in the running
should they respond to the urgings of
their friends and report for practice
Coach Brown expects immediate as
sistance in the formation of the line
from Dave Morey, former Dartmouth
captain and member of Camps ALL
American eleven for two years Mr..
Brown will also endeavor to engage the
aid of Dutch Elder, friend and fellow
team mate on the Williams eleven in
1907, to work with the ends for the first
weeks.
The training camp will not break up
until the goth. Practice will be held
