French Papermakino History.

It was from the early Saracens that
the art Of papermaking was acquired
by the French, and passed on to the
other nations Of Europe. The earliest
pape~makers Of France were the vas
sails Of the French nobility who pur-
sued their occupation on the estates
Of their overlords, fabricating the
precious material required for use by
their masters, say the historians.
Their production, together with that
Of the monks of the various monas-
teries, represented the only paper

The woman gave Thomas SIS

Thomas buried the watch at

Several days Of "watchful

suits. Thomas was charged with

HARDWICK
SCOUT SAVES BOY
FROM DROWNING
Little Berry Boy Saved
After Sinking for
Second Time

A Hardwick Boy Scout, Mando
Gagetta, son of Mrs. L. F. Thayer
saved a boy from drowning in the
VILLAGE known as Mackville this
week and incidentally demonstrat-
ed the Scout motto "Be Prepared"
A young son of John Berry of
Mackville was swimming in Mack
vile pond, and while the youngster
could swim considerably, he made
an attempt to swim across the
pond just above the bridge, which
spans the neck of the pond at the
lower end. He started all right,
but soon developed trouble and had
gone down for the second time
and was on the verge of going I'M
der the third and last time, when
Mando, who was riding in a team,
drove across the bridge. lIando
did not have any too much clothino'
on overalls being about all, but
cared he, off those came and in he
jumped. BY his quick action he got
the other lad onto raft and fin
ally ashore. Aside from good
scare and swallowing quite an
amount of water, the Berry boy
was none the worse for the eX-
Derlence.

FIVE MOST
INTERESTING
SPOTS In WORLD
You Can Read About
Them If You Can't
Travel

A metropolitan newspaper re-
Gently featured the photographs OF
the five most interesting things
seen in a trip around the world.
They were as follows: The great
wall of China, a group of figures
outside a Buddhist temple to frigh-
ten away evil spirits, the house
boats on the canal at Canton,
China, the ancient instruments IL
the astronomical observatory 1T
Picking, the bank Of the Nile neaI
Cairo, where, according to local
tradition, the daughter Of Pha-
raoh found the infant Moses in the
bulrushes.
The interests of this traveller
were apparently confined largely
TO the Orient or else he traversed
the most of his journey with his
eyes shut; a fault common to a
good many travellers.
What are the five most interest,"
ing examples OF the handiWork Of
man to be seen in a trip around
the world? What are the five
things most worth seeing and re-
Numbering?
What would interest one would
not perhaps interest another, but
here are the things which were III
general agreed upon as the five
Things most worth seeing:
The Tai Mahal at Agra in India.
This is undoubtedly the most won
derful example OF architecture IN
the world. 1t was built by Shah
Jehan to his favori,e sultana,
Moomtaz-i-Hahul, and the ro-
nance Of its building, if you will
lake trouble to look it up in l4c
library, you will find eXtraordl-
narilv interesting.
The Vatican at Rome. No bullu-
ing in the world houses so many
unreplaceable treasures as the
Vatican. Its art riches, its wealth
Of literary trea ures, exceed in
interest and in value any other
single collection ever made.
The Mount Wilson observatory,
near Los Angeles, Cant. 1t is IN
this observatory that is housed the
100 inch Hooker telescope, which
pierces further into the unknown
of space than any other instrument
that human hands have devised.
One moments look through that
magnificent instrument would
show you a new universe which
before i was built had never been
seen. 1t is one of the scientific
wonder spots Of the world
Shakespearc's home at StraJ-
ford. /. was here that the master
of all writer's retired after he had
finished the greatest contribution
to literature ever written in any
language or by any man. 1t is an
inspiration to stand where he once

ways be a seat in the Fairbanks
A. A. car to take a Caledonlan-
Record representative to coveg
all outside games. The Caledo-
nian-Record is committed 10 pol
icy of good, fair craftsmanship be-
lieving that this is the only kind
that will make sports worth wnlle
in Northeastern Vermont. We VII
always try to tell the story OF a
game from an impartial point OF
view, victories and defeats alike.
The writer of the above letter
to the editor might recollect that
we took three columns Of space to
relate the story of the recent de-
feat of the Fairbanks team by the
Newpors nine which would prove
that the Caledonian-Recor re-
ports defeats as we'll as victories.
The Caledonian-record. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1920-current, 1921-07-16

stood, to see some of the material
things that were once his compar-
ions.
The Panama Canal. Undouh.-
eddy the greatest example of mans
engineering genious since Tie
world began. There may have
been greater difficulties to sur
mount in the building of the py-
ramids, but they are useless things
not so wonderful now as a modern
metropolitan skyscraper.
All five of these things t.le the
accomplishments of the brain of
man. Added to them the traveller
around the world would wish to
see those other and greater thing
that man, has never equaled. The
falls at Niagara, the Grand Can
yon, the mighty trees of Califor-
MIA, the great tides of Fundy, the
caverns Of Luray, the mountain
Gus monuments of God in the Alps
and the Himalayas, the supreme
beauty of Lake Louise or the Bay
of Naples.
To the traveller there is given
the great privilege of seeing with
his own eyes, but even if you can
not travel, the beauties and the
wonders of the world are not de-
MED you. You can see them
through the eyes of others who
have seen them and have written
down in graphic and truthful
language the wonders that they
found. -
If you are interested in any of
the five things Of man enumerated
above you can find they all inter
estinply Written about in any good
library, andalo the greater things
in nature hundreds Of books nave
been writtenl on each of them
