announced in the display advertisement
that appears elsewhere in this issue, has
established and will conduct during the
coming year three one and two-year
| training COURSES for teachers, located at
Burlington, in connection with the Uni
versity of Vermont; at Castleton, in the
former Normal school plant, and at Lyn-
don Center, in connection with Lyndon
Institute. These courses, practically
identical in subjects and instruction offer
ed, are so located as to serve conveniently
all parts of the state.

fciently large corps of instructors and
abundant practice facilities, Mr.. Ben

ment by Capt. Walker, post adjutant

Better Than Jazz
(From Rutland HERALD

Scripture admits that there may be a
time to dance" and some young folks
are SO bitten by the mania for jazz that
they will dance in this weather. They
do things better in Felcherville:-
The girls met and took up the study of
Vermont. There are some boys who wish
to join and it was decided that all those
who wish to come once in two weeks to
the old plastered house, Thursday after
noon, may do so. The next meeting will
be July 81. Learn to bound Vermont
and the six northern counties.
When the girls have good idea, trust
the boys to fall in with it. Boys have
ever been known to go to church in order
to be first with the coveted opportunity
for Seeing Nellie Home"
Mrs. Darius Fletcher, who writes the
above from her home in the old house, on
the road from Hyde Park, is 70 years
old, does her own housework and takes
care of grandchild, yet finds time to
foster such worthy enterprise as getting
the girls interested in the study of Yer
mont.
What the average high school graduate
knows about Vermont can usually be con-
densed into mighty thin thesis. He
couldn't "buond" the six northern or six
southern or six counties anywhere in the
state, or give their shire TOWNS, either, for
that matter.
As to the wonderful history of Vermont
distributed through almost every county
and with every considerable town mine
information, that sort Of thing seems to
be something to be most specifically
studied, then discarded as soon as the irk-
some schedule of school study is accom-.
plished.
We should hate to have this remark
able old lady-Mrs Felcher-cone over
here some time next May and examine
the graduating class of any Rutland
county high school on the state we live in
and of whose history we are SO proud.
The graduating class of the "plastered
house" would put them to shame.

Stage Adventures Plays New
Type Of Woman in Mice

that cast her for the role Of the reform
ing aunt in Mice People" at the Elaw
Theatre. For Miss Maddern has de-
voted much OF her career to portrayals
OF the type Of woman who wrecks and
ruins. who invites disaster rather than
attempting to prevent 1t.
Season after season she was chosen
for vampire roles. She became mistress
of every trick in the stage adventuresss
repertoire. Her nightly task consisted In
breaking from ono to half Dozen
hearts, In blasting marital happiness, In
Turing mems souls TO destruction" az
they say In the movies.
Producers apparently were convinced
that no happy home could successfully
be demolished until Miss Maddern had
been placed in charge of the work. Her
plea that she wanted TO be a good
woman" went unheeded In the mana
gerial offices. And then. Just when she
was on the point OF rebellion, Just as she
had vowed that she was forever through
with vamping, Rachel Crothers selected
her as the ideal actress to direct Fran.
