The local X. of G.. committee for the
pool billiard and card tournaments is
4 endeavoring to meet the Montpelier
| councils committee so that arrange
ments for the deciding match for the
1 year may be made. As the councils
are tied for points. an extra meet must

Residents of South Main street, es-
pecially parents of small children, OBJ
ject strenuously to the speeding OF au-
tomobiles along that thoroughfare and
believe that such practice should be
nipped in the bud before the season
gets good foothold. An observant
citizen yesterday noted the speed of
cars along Barre's main streets and
took note Of the cars speeding past
school building. Some of these drivers
took no precaution whatever in passing
school buildings Some of these drivers
the lives of children and more espe
cially those impulsive and thoughtless
children who are always found among
large groups. Possibly stiff court
sentence upon two or two violators
would curb the practice and make the
travel Of pedestrians much safer.
In about two weeks time the Amer
lean Legion clubhouse is expected to be
in readiness for occupancy, The build
ing formerly for many years known
as the Church street schoolhouse, has
been altered in several ways so that
the best accommodations for club |
house might be constructed. On the /
lower floor a front entrance door has |
been removed and the space filed in |
with bricks, in ACCORDANCE with the re- |
mainder of the building Windows in |
one or two instances have been re-
paired and the interior enlarged as |
much as possible At the front en-
trance is small hall, leading to the
two large rooms that when completed |
and furnished viii be n reading room
and a pool and billiard room, respec.
lively. The entire second floor has
been made into dance hall with a
hardwood floor, the equal of which will
be hard to find in this city During
the past week some OF the furnishings
for the house have been received, but
much more is expected before the
opening.
A circular received by Station Agent
7. l.. II. Carr of the Central Vermont
railway yesterday bears the informa-
lion that all trains on all divisions of
he Boston & Maine railroad. also St
Johnsbury & Lake Champlain railroad,
& Wells River railroad.
New sYork. New Haven & Hartford

-oad will be advanced practically one
iour earlier than the present schedules
beginning Sunday, April -. on the
southern division, which extends az far
,outh as Windsor A similar change
,ccurs on the northern division Sun
lay. May ?. and affects more directly
Barre and Montpelier trains. Time
ables for this change have not as vet
been received at the local station This
hange in schedule and the different
vstcms OF time in New England be-
.ins to bring about more complications
With the train schedules, as may be
eadily discerned by the new changes.
