The Universalist church is the proud
bearer of new bulletin board recently
purchased from the H. +. Winters Co.
of Davenport, la. The old board, which
! formerly was located to the right of
the entrance doors has been removed
and the new board put up so that in
stead of facing at right angles across
! Church street, it faces at diagonals
across the intersection of Main and
Church streets, being equally observa-
/ BILE from passersby on both streets. 1t
is large board, 6Sx36 inches, OF an
attractive, highly polished wooden
I frame finish The bulletin section is
arranged so that any notice may be re-
placed by whoever holds the key of the
glass casing which covers the notices.
First Universalst church" appears
across the top of the board in plain
gilt letters, and the bulletin letters are
of white so that they may be clearly
discernible against black background,
i The board will bear notices Of all
/ church activities, including any state
ments or quotations which may seem
best to publish. The entire arrange
mcnt follows after examples set by
many of the larger city churches in
having large bulletin boards erected for
similar purposes
There will be in Vermont at least
two important basketball games to-
night, the most important to the ma
| iority of Barre admirers being that OF
/ Spaulding high school against Peoples
academy of Morrisyille, which will be
played in the Morrisyille gymnasium.
! This morning Coach Robert Ross and
Manager Wayne Perry started the te-
dious Journey to Morrisyille along with
seven players. OIeary, Douglas, Tier
new. Mcdonald, Slayton, Brown and
Smith. The trip though comparative
! " short is one of the most tiresome
of the entire season, travelling only as
far rs Waterbury by train changing
! then to the electric railway, which ter
inmates at Stowe, and then boarding
stage for the last lap of the 33-mile
! Journey. While that game is being
PLAYED in Morrsville land by the way
should Spaulding lose to this team lit
tie hopes for the championship would
remain) Burlington high will battle
for honors with Montpelier high at
/ Montpelier, formidable opponent for
Burlington at this stage of the season,
especially on the Montpelier armory
floor. where Montpelier often loses a
visiting team on the spacious court.
Next Tuesday evening Spaulding plays
4 the postponed game with Waterbury
high at Waterbury and on Friday eve
ming plays Waterbury at Barre. Wa
terbury tonight plays 81. Adams high
at Waterbury, the latter team now
holding second place to Spaulding and
third place in the league.
