In explaining to the Register his
role in the affair, he said that his was
only half the blame He had resigned
himself to restitution as required by law
and intended to plead guilty when he
faces the Judge tomorrow morning
When he had been caught with the
goods he accepted the advice of his
friends and agreed to return all that
he had taken as his share In fact he
made a clean breast of the affair to
Officer Shaw Wednesday afternoon.
When the search was made he was alb
sent on a trapping expedition down the
Greek.
"The breaks were easily engineered
by u.s., he said when asked about the
method of entrance. "None of the win
dows seemed locked in Hillside 1t
was a simple matter to take off a
screen and climb in A black travel
ling bag was filled with what seemed
worthwhile and we left by the front
door, taking care to lock some of the
windows for the owners. At the Gables
we entered through a coal chute al
though we found the cellar door open.
Two fleece lined coats, one with rae
coon collar, were removed from the
wardrobes there Search OF the bureau
drawers revealed considerable jewelry,
among which a mans watch carefully
folded in several handkerchiefs. My
pal was going to leave a pin cushion
in one of the beds just for the fun Of
il but l took it out
I'VE did the jobs merely for the
deviltry of it. We have not tried to
sell any of the articles, although one
OF us was offered as much as ten dol
lars for one OF the rings. We would
have brought it all back before long
he said.
States Attorney George W. Stone of
Nergennes came to Middlebury to re-
present the commonwealth in the case
but had not known that Judge A. w.
Dickens had gone TO Bristol in the
morning for another trial Nothing was
done in the matter except for the post
OF the hearing until Satur
day. The large number that had gath
cred to listen to the proceeding were
thus disappointed.
The college girls identified all OF the
articles that have been yet produced.

COMMUNICATION
Editor of The Register,
Middlebury, VT,

Editor of The Register,
Middlebury. Vt,
Evidently you desire another letter,
for | find, in your last issue just re-
ceived, thoughts about my attitude OF
mind which are as surprising to me as
they must have been to your readers.
For who ever found me neutral on any
subject or an easy mark for lobbying !
/ am also indebted to you for learning
that l returned to Montpelier con-
WINGED that my record was being
watched, although l feel flattered II it
is so. do not expect to be ashamed
of it.
The group of village matrons num-
bered just two.-one lady to whom
we are greatly indebted not only for
splendid work last fall but also for
causing the homes of Montpelier to be
opened for us with rare hospitality
the other and the spokeswoman having
from my standpoint a September re
cord" somewhat under a cloud. When
the latter, in reply to my assurance
that l was for retaining the primary
law, insisted that l knew l had been
against the primary in the past,
tried to explain, though evidently in
vain, that the proposed repeal has
nothing to do with the primary reform
advocated two years ago by commit
tee of the State Bar Association OF
which ! was chairman. 1t had not
occurred to me that any one might
confuse these radically different pro-
posals
The friends of the direct primary
have been disappointed in its workings.
However, the advent of equal suffrage
entities the law to a further trial, while
it would not be fair to the women to
make any radical changes until they
can freely participate i'll these revisions
which are bound to come. Moreover
in accordance with the pledge of the
Republican platform we have already
remedied the most complained OF de-
feet and it does not seem fair to des-
troy the fruits of our hard work IN
passing Senate | over the handicap OF
an adverse report to the House, by
now doing away entirely with the law
Many OF us are Keenly appleCdllNe
that the 10Th Amendment NAV have
glimpsed the dawn of a millennium in
politics. This Legislature is therefore
doing everything it can think OF for
the women. They do not have to lob
by. The men are ordering three gifts
for them to every one they crave.
Several weeks ago Former Senator
LaFleur, while calling to instruct me
how to vote on the various bills start
ed to set me right on this one, when |
stopped him, assuring him that | had
already decided to vote against the
repeal of the present primary law
Doubtless Senator LaFleur will be glad
to verify this statement
Thanking YOU for all cOurtesies, l
your representative,

LIBRARY EXTENSION SERVICE
INAUGURATED BY TELEPHONE
College Invites all Middlebury to Call
7a-2 When Dates Get Mixed

1872 When Dates Get Mixed
To extend the usefulness of the
thousands OF volumes in the Middle
bury College library and put at hand,
as it were, the expert knowledge of its
staff, telephone has been installed
for the convenience of the district.
Miss Laila A. Mcneil, Librarian, in
vites all residents of Middlebury,
whether connected with the college or
not, to take advantage of the Oppor-
tunity to seek information on any
topic within the scope of the institu-
ton. If the question is not too diff
cult, it may be answered while the
telephone connection is held, and prob
lens that require research will receive
the earliest possible attention.
To the person wishing material col
lected on a certain subject, the tele
phone service will prove a particular
boon By notifying the staff at the
library in advance, he will find upon
his arrival at the desk that the books
and magazines desired will have been
prepared for him. Professors especial
ly greet this announcement OF i'm
proved facilities with genuine pleasure
1t is planned to permit the renewal
OF books by telephone. This convent
ence will save trip to the library
that would have no other purpose than
merely the checking of the volume and
that would result in the loss OF per-
haps much time for the formality OF
a few seconds. The number Of the
telephone is 1872.

Anent Town Report
Aliddlebury, VT, Ma.

Middlebury VT, March 5, 1921
Editor of The Middlebury Register
Sir:
Certain remarks made by Chairman
LaFleur at the Town Meeting on
March lst and the editorial comment
in your columns in the issue of March
4th give the impression that the town
auditors were deserving of criticism in
having the town reports printed and
published by an out of-town press The
impression is also given that the
figures in the 1920 report were mex
cusably muddled.
Permit me to point out that the
reports were ordered to be printed out
OF town during the past two years only
after every effort had been used to
have them printed at your plant.
Your Mr.. Seymour will recollect that
IN each wear | negotiated with him in
this matter and in each year was told
that the Register Company was unable
to handle this work because OF the
amount of work on hand, and the
shortage of help.
| would also add my OPINION that the
errors made in printing the reports Of
the past two years have not been great
er than those made during the few
preceding years when the reports were
printed in town While it is regretable
that the reports as given out should
contain any errors, yet past experience
has shown that such errors are almost
inevitable.
I trust that the coming year the
Register Company will be in a position
to offer to do this work, and, if it is
left to them, that they may put out
report which will be entirely free from
the errors which have always appeared
in the past, whether the work was done
in town or away.
Yours. etc,
Town Auditors

VILLAGE EASILY COLLECTS
FOR SUBURB FIRE SERVICE
Phelps SWEET and Hortonia Company
Willingly Pay for Help of Firemen

When the apparatus of the Middle
bury Fire Department is sent to assist
in the combat of blaze outside of the
limits of the village, the owner of the
endangered property is taxed for this
help according to the number of men
employed and the length of the service
rendered.
When the chemical was sent two
weeks ago to aid in preventing the
spread of the flames of the barns Of
the Phelps Nash farm to the dwelling
house, bill of Sl240 was sent to
Phelps n SWEET for the assistance Civ
en- by the department. Only two men,
Captain Fred Japan and Walter Cal
houn accompanied the apparatus.
Their time was computed as of two
hours at Sl20 per hour. The chemicals
tourney was estimated as worth So
although the apparatus was not used
The order to answer the call for help
was given by Robert +. Pinney, chair
man of the Board of Trustees. Mr.
SWEET has since expressed his graft
tude for the benefit.
At the recent big fire when the build
ing and machinery of the HortOnia
Power Company were destroyed, the
entire department worked to minimize
the loss. The day following the receipt
of bill of $40 from the department
for the mornings work there, the COM
pany remitted its check with a note of
thanks.

The cordially with which President
Harding received the numerous news
paper corresp ondents in Washington
on the day OF his inauguration was but
the sequel of the courtesy that he had
extended the press throughout his pub
lie life. True it is that Mr.. Harding
is an editor himself. Nevertheless his
action in recognizing the great poten-
tial assistance of these writer's in his
administration came from more than
a friendly feeling toward brother
craftsmen. He but follows in the foot
steps OF other presidents in welcoming
the newspapers as friends instead Of
Tepulsing them as personae non gratae,
Yet in numerous small communities
there are presidents of the village or
town who cannot be approached by a
reporter for information OF public con-
Germ SaCrilegious to infringe upon the
sanctuary of their council hall What if
the public elected him and his bench
men? Time enough for the people to
know how their money is used when
the annual report will have been print
ed Too late then for demonstration.
But what of it?

Town Auditors

Editors note Mr. LaFleur and our
selves had no intention whatever to re-
feet upon the efficiency of the Audi
tors, men whom we all respect as able
public officers. Neither the Modera-
tor nor we were the first to comment
on the errors OF the report. Senator
Cady, selectman, was first on his feet
after the meeting opened and joked
about the Steele order for buying a
dog and pig" instead Of "burying" the
same He then read corrected sum-
mary Of the towns finances, We have
no fault to find with the printers as
we can realize their difficulty in a rush
order with copy that at times is about
fifty per cent legible to the uninitiated
Not knowing the names Of local men
they guessed very we'll the contents OF
the various manuscripts. The Regis
ter Company did not accept the work
for the reason that the Auditors could
not promise the copy soon enough for
distribution on the day required. In
a small printing office a town report
cannot be printed overnight, nor in
several days ordinarily. The real rea-
son for the general inconvenience lies
with the various officers who held up
the auditing by delay in submitting
their reports-
