On certain Sunday a clergyman, in
the course of opening remarks OF his
sermon, explained how his preaching
that morning would be on the brief
side. as his manuscript had been torn
by lively dog that he happened to
possess.

my sermon from where it has been

As he concluded his sermon he apol-

in the pulpit.
When the service was over, and most

SHARP PLAYING

The Spaulding gymnasium has been
the scene of many close, exciting
game this season, all of which have
.t;rred In a certain amount of excite
ment and enthusiasm on the part OF
the audience, but to say that the game
Saturday night between the tradition
al rivals, Montpelier high school and
Spaulding, was a fast, close, exciting
game would be putting the thing mild

which have caused old men to groan,
women to weep, and children to scream,
but Saturday man, woman and child
alike, all yelled something, anything,

pent-up energy, vocal powers, or lung

accommodating for the past many moons.

pelier sprung a surprise, and with their
snappy, fast, clever playing, at times
had the local lads running aimlessly on
the floor. Spauldng fought all the
way, and this quality, with flashes OF
old time form and shooting, enabled
them to come out on top OF the heap.
Slayton was entirely off his usual
clever fast game, and by continued
persistency and gameness he stuck out
the required forty minutes with a
whole lot of pep and fight. AT one
time during the final moments OF play
he caromed off the wall, and time
had to be called until he could regain
some portion of his normal self. The
illness which the tall lean center has
undergone in the past week probably
had much to do with his playing, and
n whole lot of credit is due him for the
manner in which he fought the whole
way through.

It is believed he plunged into the river late that night. He apparently had been suffering under mental depre=- sion. although he had given no evil dence of it until he disappeared Tuesday. Upon being found that eve ming he was given medical attention.
 Failure of the government to un- dertake extensive development of the Alameda, Calf, naval base project was understood to have been a cause of great concern to him. as he had given close attention to the plan. Whether other matters pertaining to his district had also weighed on his mind could not be said tonight, al thought it was asserted he had de- cided not to stand for reelection.
 Mir. Elston's hat and overcoat were found on the bank of the river about the time the body was recovered. The note said:

 Injunction Order
rRepubIican A. p. Leased WireJ

CHICAGO, Dec. 15.-Officials Of the United Mine Workers tonight professed to see signal victory in the decision of the United States court of appeals today which ordered re-cast of the injunction barring the checll-off system of collection of dues. The case was remanded to Judge A. E Anderson of Indianapolis, who issued the injunction.
 Judge Anderson was ordered to is sue a preliminary injunction along lines outlined by the appellate court while the case Is being reheard. The appellate court took the case under advisement several weeks ago and issued an order suspending the orig inal injunction as it related to the chetkoff. he court of appeals found the Anderson injunction faulty be- cause it was too general.
 The injunction by Judge Anderson was obtained by Coal Operators of Kentucky and West Virginia who claimed dues collected through the check off system by which operators deducted union dues from the min CTS pay were being used to organize uou-union fields earby operated.
 The appellate court held that the injunction was in error in mot linn iting the prohibition of the sending of money in,o West Virginia to be used thereof m aiding the promotion of interfering acts"

PARIS, Dec. 15-Germany will not be able to meet in full her repara- tions payments of 1000, 100000 gold marks falling due January 15 and February 15 and has so informed the allied separations commission.
 A moratorium was asked for by Germany in it's note. which merely lays Germany's financial situation before the separations committee as evidence of Germany's inability to meet the iustallments. each of 500,- 100000 gold marks.
 Neither is any release from her ob- legations requested by Germany. which apparently has left the matter entirely in the hands of the commis- sion. The concluding paragraph Of the brief note, however, gives a strong intimation that Germany sees no way out Of her financial difficult ties, except through the so-called ''reparations holiday" or 9. delay of two or three years.
 The announcement contains a warning to the allies that similar diff faculties will arise in connection with subsequent payments. This is inter- preted in reparations circles as meaning that Germany will seek fur ther delays.
 The text, signed by Chancellor Wirth, reads:
 'The German government has made every effort-to insure the payment of the two installments shortly due un- der the schedule of payments of May 5, 1921.
 'In view of the fact that the suc- cess of these efforts depended on 6 foreign loan, and that in transac- tions Of this nature the active col Liberation of British financiers was necessary, the German government opened negotiations in England.
 Prom a competent authority it has received a reply that in view of the claims now advanced for the coming year, that is, the financial obligation: of the German government to tht | separations commission. such a loaI i could not be obtained in England. i "Cnder these circumstances th' l government can not anticipate th' possibility of procuring the sum' | necessary for the total payment 0 ! the installations of January F, ant l February IS.
