hearings would be called on the
project in the near future. The
proposed consolidation was aut-
horized by the transportation act.
In the main the plan proposed
by the commission is that drafted
under it's direction by Professor
William Ripley of Harvard Uni
versity but some variations were
made. The commission said that
while all of the larger or class
one railroads had been included in
the make up of its schedule num-
Der of class 2 and class 3 lines had
also been covered. The first of
the proposed consolidated systems
is New York Central, including
the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago
& st. Louis, Monongahela, Boston
and Maine, Bangor and Aroostook
and others. The Commission
noted that Canadian railroad sub
salaries such as the Minneapolis,
st. Paul and Sault Ste. Marie and
the Central Vermont had been
eliminated from its consolidation
and that water carriers were con-
trolled by railroad concerns were
included.

HANDICRAFT
TEAM WINS
FIRST HONORS
st. JOhnsbury Boys Led
Among Twenty-eight
Teams

The Handicraft team consisting
of Royce Beck, Dana Baxter and
Elwin Twombly return from Camp
Vail after a very successful week
at the Eastern States Exposition
at Springfield, Mass.
Prof. jenkins of Delaware, who
judged the demonstrations of all
the teams, remarked that the team
work and finish of the team was
the best he had seen. The great
point brought out was that it was
not merely a team trained to ex-
hibit before an audience but was
a team which showed by pnotos
and take what they had really
done during the past year.
One of the projects demonst1at-
ed was the mixing and laying of
a section of concrete walk. Photos
were shown by the boys of walks
laid by them for various st. Johns
bury people, namely, Mrs. H. ".
Ely, Lindol Scott, Dr.. w. 3. Fitch,
Calvin Brown, f. B. Jacques ana
w. H. jerks. These were all done
by club members.
Other projects demonstrated
were the making of some 10 or q
dozen useful knots with the ex-
planation of their various uses, the
sharpening of scissors, sharpening
and care of tools, the preparation
of wood for finish and the stain
ing, filing, vanishing and POLISH
ing of the same, and the method
of removing and repacking 4
lcaky faucet.
The boys were the youngest
team at camp their ages running
between IL and 13.
Mr.. Farley, state club leader of
Massachusetts, remarked when
presenting the medals that it was
a foregone conclusion that st.
Johnsbury would win first award
as they had never been beaten. de-
spite the fact that many teams of
high school age in the past had
done their best to do so.
The boys behaved like veterans
sefore the large crowd and spoke
clearly and to the point and in
stantly answered all questions
asked.
In judging, the boys scored 26o
points, the highest of any team in
any class, Dana Baxter scoring
highest with 94ls points.
On Wednesday night at the reg
ular evening conference the chair !
man Of the meeting asked each
state leader without any warning
to pick one boy and one girl from
their state to stand before the |
others and give the reasons why |
they liked club work and how it |
had helped them. Dana Baxter

ELECTRIC PLANT
HANDICAPPED BY
LACK OF WATER
Newport Business Streets
and Houses Without
Lights

Monday and Tuesday nights the
City Of Newport was almost COM
pletely enveloped in darkness. The
electric street lights have not been
Illuminated the past two nights,
and many of the stores along Main
street, being deprived of lighting,
were forced to use candles and oil
lamps. The sight of these crude
methods of illumination in the dim
ly illuminated stores and places of
business brought to mind the de-
privations of our forefathers be-
fore the discovery of electricity.
The extreme drouth and the
lowering water in Clyde River has
practically rendered useless the
electric light plant at Newport.
The water in the big artificial dam
on Pine hill is very low.
For a time Tuesday evening, the
Premier theatre and Lanes opera
house were provided with light.
Once or twice, however, the lights
failed, and the movies were halted
for several minutes. The same
difficulty was experienced at the
opera house. A mission at St.
Mary's Catholic church was con-
Quoted by fathers from st. Anne
de Baupre, who had to talk to an
audience in darkness.
Even while the Newport repres-
cntative was writing this report
the lights suddenly went out
There was no candle or oil lamp
at hand. A thoughtful newsboy
stood by and lit match after match
to give enough of a Pickering light
to permit the reporter to see the
key board of the typewriter.
There is no doubt that the man

VERMONT
ENGINEERS In
ST. J0HNSBURY
State Organization Hear
Strong Address BY.
Gov. HartnesS

St. Johnsbury was visited by the
Vermont Society Of Engineers
Tuesday afternoon and 60 of the
members of this organization, in
cluding many ladies, throughly en-
joyed their annual fall meeting
and picnic. Included in the num-
Der was Gov. Hartness, a former
president of the organization, who
was however compelled by official
duties to leave for Montpelier ear
ly Wednesday morning.
The only meeting of the occa-
sion was at the Museum class
room where an attractive program
had been provided. President
/ Pond presided and the address of
welcome from the Commercial
Club was given by the secretary
Arthur F. Stone. In his brief ad-
dress Mr.. Stone spoke of what the
Museum was doing for the towns
people, especially in educating the
young people, and paid tribute
to two former residents of the
town whose pioneer work had been
along the lines of the members of
the society he was wclcoming-S.
H. Bracket, so many years teach
er of the sciences at st. Johnsbury
Academy, and. the late John H.
Paddock. Mr.. Stone said Mr..
Brackets successful experiments
with the X-rav and Mr.. Paddock's
achievements as a mining engi-
neer were real contributions to
the scientific world.
Gov. Hartness followed with an
inspilational address on "The
Spirit of Work" The Governor
began by expressing his pleasure
in speaking in this beautiful build
ing where so much special know
ledge was acquired, particularly
by the children. He said it was an
example of what st. Johnsbury
and the Fairbanks people could do.
I Gov. Haltness said it was a
happy mission to be associated
with the industries and he hoped
he would be in the work until the
end came. 81 wish you could Wis
ualize the lives and work of the
men who have built up the Fair
banks scale organization.
"Therc has never been time
when things were so critical. They
were pretty good before the war
broke and now, that. the war is
over there is only one way out.
From Vermont's viewpoint, ASIDE
from certain branches Of industry
it has taken longer to produce GER
tain articles here than in some
other states. In the war through
team work and organization it was
possible to produce sometimes 10
times as much as before. This was
under abnormal conditions when
we worked at high speed. We in
Vermont must not work two days |
TO produce the work that men in |
other states arc producing in one.
There is no earthly reason why |
Vermontcrs should not find the |
best opportunities here. Henry Lc-
land a Vermonter, is perhaps the |
leader in the automobile industry. |

ARGUMENTS
HEARD in
EMERY CASE
Orleans Case May Go to
the Jury
Today

Opening arguments were made
Tuesday afternoon in the suit,
brought for personal damages by
Arthur and Cora Emery against
Deputy Sheriff George Jennings
and three special policemen, for al
legged injuries caused when Arthur
Emery was forcibly extricated
from his automobile at the Or
leans Centennial celebration on
August 27, 1920.
Attorney Arthur Graves, junior
member of the firm of Searles e.
Graves of st. Johnsbury delivered
the opening argument for the
plaintiff. He elaborated upon the
high spots in the testimony, scor-
ing Deputy Sheriff Jennings for
seizing Cora Emery, according to
certain witnesses, and for yanking
her by the hair. Arthur Emery,
Attorney Graves maintained, had
committed no breach of the peace
at the Centennial celebration at
Orleans, hence he was not liable to
arrest. Even granting that Emery
was arrested, the attorney contin-
ued, there was no evidence show
ing that Jennings brought him be-
bore a magistrate, according to the
law, governing arrests without a
warrant.
Following the conclusion of At
torney Graves argument, w. w.
Reiden. one of the three able
counsel for the defense, made his
plea to the jury. He said that he
entertained different opinion of
the breach of peace law, in dis
agreement with Attorney Graves.
Counsel Reirden steadfastly argu-
ed taht Emery had committed a
breach of the peace, when he stood
