373 cases from the record Of 1919.
q reduction Of 1913 cases from
the record Of 1918 and reduction
OF z,467 cases from the record Of
1917. Comparing annual records

LOFTY LODGE
DEDICATED
Building Constructed on
Mount Mansfield Open
to Public
WAS DONATED
BY ELIHU B. TAFT
The Building Is 600 Feet
Below "Chin," But
Well Placed

climbing 1900 feet in the heat of
Monday is some job, said one OF those
who went to the dedication of the
Elhu B. Taft lodge on Mount Mans
field. "but it is worth it." The view
from the front of the lodge is one of
the best in Vermont although there is
not as wide range as can be had
from the chin of the mountain, 500 feet
higher up. The speakers were {. T.
Cooper of Rutland, president OF the
Green Mountain club; w G. Hastings,
chief forester, representing Vermont,
and Attorney Cowles of Burlington,
representing Mr.. Taft, who, owing to
his health, was unable to be present.
About % persons were present at the
exercises. the most of whom came from
/ Burlington.
The climb is made from the east side
by taking an automobile trip to Barnes
camp on Smuggler's Notch road Leav-
ing the machine there a walk up the
main highway for an eighth. of mile
occurs: then wood road TO the left
is taken. This forms portion Of the
trail, probably half mile, and then
the real climb commences, for in the
two miles to the, lodge, a person goes
up 1900 feet. The trail was slippery
Monday, owing to the fact that the
horses that have been used to pull
some of the timber and other commodi-
tries up the trail had cut il up and the
recent rains softened the trail.
On their arrival at the lodge the
dedication exercises took place before
luncheon was had. Mr.. Cowles asked
the assembly to group about the front
of the lodge and then introduced Mr.
Cooper. who asked Chief Forester
Hastings for remarks. The latter said
that the most of his audience were
used TO mountain climbing for recre'
alton, but that his party came as one
of the duties connected with the for
estry department. However, it was 2
pleasure to be able to attend this gath
ering and he had watched the develop
ment of the lodge with no small inter
est and looked now for its success. He
