Great Treat Tuesday Night

/ The Great Bostonia Sextette club
OF musicians and entertainers will ap-
pear as the last number IN the Barton
Lyceum course tuesday evening OF
next week in Seaver's hall. This num-
Der will undoubtedly be the finest in
what is probably is the best course
of lectures and entertainments Bar
ton has had in many years.
This club has been appearing on
the American platform for about 20
years and is the best and most pOpu-
lar organization of its kind in this
country. Each member is a star
carefully selected by C. L. Stats, its
leader, and a musician of lnternatlOn-
al note.
Mr.. Stats has filled the position of
first clarinet in the Royal Italian
Opera, Her Majesty's Theatre, Lon
don, at the Jardin discrimination in
Paris, and at the great Casino in Os-
tend, Belgium. Here in the United
States he is the most noted clarinetist
on the concert stage, having played
solo clarinet in Sousa's band, and for
years been a prominent member of
the Boston Symphony orchestra. AS
soloist he is today withdt rival,
and is the only clarinetist devoting his
time to solo playing and high-class
concerts.
Those not holding course tickets
should secure them early from
Pierce's.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
Says Orleans County Can Be Devel.
Oped

Mr.. Editor:
On our return from an automobile
trip to Tampa, st. Petersburg, Bra
dentown, and Sarasota, we found the
Monitor of February 23rd, awaiting
for us with "home news" and your
editorial referring to the talk of Mr..
True of Newport, with reference to
our undeveloped summer business,
hits the nail squarely on the head.
In other words, "Them's my senti
ments exactly"
We have the "Acres of Diamonds"
in Orleans county, that we have all
heard about, but after having travel
ed nearly 1000 miles, visiting, all the
principal places in Florida, where
thousands and thousands of tourists
come every winter, wonderful and
very attractive places; l cannot help
but wonder, why we Of Orleans coun-
ty, do not wake up to the fact, that
we are simply surrounded with the
very things that would appeal to
thousands of these same people, but
they won't come to US unless we tell
them what we have to offer. The
great big key that opens the door, is
advertising, and the only way the
door can be opened, even with this
key, is in the hands of a man named
Booster, spelled with letters that can
be heard as we'll as read.
You, of course know, that I am and
have been for some years a believer
that Willoughby lake is one of the
beauty spots of the country and that
it's natural attraction, properly de-
veloped and advertised should in a
short time put Orleans county on the
map as a real summer place.
After having listened to real
Boosters down here all winter have
just made up my mind, that the
fault is rot with MemphremagoP
lake, Crystal lake, Willoughby lake
or any other lake, because they are
there in all their beauty. "The fault
is all our own" Let's have some
sort of an organization as outlined in
your editorial; we have the goods"
let's get together and "deliver" them.
Very truly yours,
B. o. Smith.

Longwood, Fla, Mch. 3rd, 1921.

INTERESTING VILLAGE MEET
ING
Dispose of Several Articles Not Us.
ually Before the Village Voters

Barton's annual village meeting,
held in Seaver's hall Tuesday evening
was we'll attended and large amount
of important business disposed of
with only here and there a slight
furry.
F. w. Baldwin was elected moder-
ator; Abby G. May, clerk; C. A. Bar
rows, trustee, to succeed himself;
George Jennings, collector; F. w.
Baldwin, attorney; c. j. Clogston,
water commissioner; E. w. Barron,
c.. E. Hamblet and C. S. Webster.
auditors; Homer Rushford, chief en-
gineer; Frank May and F. J. Jarvis,
assistants.
The usual business was quickly dis
posed of and $500 was voted for the
support Of the library, $3.50 for the
support of the band and mot to ex-
ceed $1,000 for fitting celebration of
the 125th anniversary of the settling
of the town of Barton. This uues-
tion provoked some discussion. The
trustees were elected to carry out the
plans for the celebration. It was
voted to discontinue the custom of
giving SO per cent. discount on new
electric wiring within the village and
it was voted not to maintain police
protection and the curfew law.
This point was discussed somewhat
out the opinion seemed to prevail
shat unless the matter could be work
ed out differently than it did when
last tried, when parents gave permits
to their children, it was better left
alone. 1t was voted to have the fiscal
wear of the village end with the cal
endar year and to collect electric
bills quarterly. 1t was voted to pass
over the article voting Is per cent. of
the village highway money into the
town treasury.

Meeting of Farm Bureau Executive
Committee

The February meeting of the Farm
Bureau executive committee was held
at Barton February %. Members
present were Dutton, Kelley, Buchan-
an, and Shaw, and Agents Abel and
Bacon. E. L. ingalls, of Burlington
was also present. The reports of the
treasurer and the committee appoint
ed to consider the location of the Of
flee we're herd and Mr.. Buchanan re :
ported the meeting of the Farm Bu-
reau federation to which he went as
delegate of the Orleans County Farm
Bureau.
Several matters of Importance were
discussed but no action was taken on
account of the small number present.
1t was decided to hold a meeting
later, probably after travelling is bet
ter in the spring, of the executive
committee and the local committees
of the various communities of the
county. Among the problems which
demand the attention of the whole
Farm Bureau membership at the
present time are the following:
Shall the club agent be financed the
coming year by membership fees or
by fund raised as this years fund
was raised?
What shall be done about the debt
of the Farm Bureau?
Shall the Orleans County Farm Bu-
reau join the state and national fed
erations?
Is it best to move the office from
Newport to Barton.
Does Orleans county want a home
demonstration agent?
Since these steps depend upon mon
ey, shall the Farm Bureau raise it's
dues as six Vermont counties have
done within the past year?
Bruce Buchanan, Secretary.

To Our Readers!

Barton was without electric
current all day Tuesday and all
the evening, thus depriving the
Monitor office of power with
which to operate its linotype or
presses. Not line of type was
set for our news columns from
Monday night until Wednesday
morning and we are therefore
issuing paper without consid-
cradle material intended for it.
The issue is out on time, how
ever, rather than to delay a day
in order to set the type.
