The dredge boat, which is tc

has been launched in mid-stream

now navigate on to the Obion river
Some time ago, community
club was organized in the Third dis
trict and continues to grow. Each
meeting is attended by more peo-
pie and better interest. We are do
ing quite lot of things for the bet
terment of our school and also to
clean up and beautify our two lit
tie cities, Gardner and Terrell, and
the country as well. We are all 60
ing to clean up our premises, nail
on our barn doors, cut fence rows,
paint our buildings, raise more and
{, better hogs, chickens and flowers,
and spread joy and sunshine, and
have less kicking and knocking
than was ever known in these parts
before.
A number of citizens met at the
school house on last Saturday and
wired the. building for Delco lights,
the current being furnished by Wal
ter Gray. We now have two resi-
dences, one business house, three
churches and the school building
lighted with Delco electric lights.
The community club gave a Hal
lOwe'en, entertainment last night at
the school house which was very
unique. After the program we all
went fishing in pond prepared in
the building The different kinds
of fish caught, created lots of
merriment, both old and young TAX
ing part, So much better way of
spending the evening than soaping
windows, tearing down wood piles,
putting wheels on tops of buildings
or in them. Last year we had to
take a wagon out of our school
building. Better have party and
you older ones go with the young
sters and entertain with wholesome
fun with them so they will not have
time to think of such ugly things.
Mrs. Smith, widow of the late D.
c. Smith, who, it will be remember
ed, was a nephew Of the pioneer,
David Crockett, and also first
cousin to former Gov, John |. Cox,
was buried at Gardner cemetery
yesterday. She lived near Terrell
and was a noble christian woman,
and leaves a host of relatives and
friends to mourn her death.

LOUIS LAVALLEy
GOES TO WINDSOR
FOR Is YEARS
Sentenced for Burning House In
Woodford Hollow
MADE FULL CONFESSION
Had Stolen Graphaphone and Later
Fired House to Conceal
Original Crime.
MADE FULL CONFESSION

Louis Lavalley, aged 20, who lives
with his parents at the Dinwiddie place
on the road to Woodford, was this
morning sentenced to not more than 20
years or less than is years at hard
labor in the state prison at Windsor,
following a conviction for arson.
Laval.ey was arrested Saturday
even ng by Sheriff Perry B. Gardner
and lodged in the county Jail on srs-
picion that he set fire to the house
owned by Dell Harvey in Woodford
Hollow. Monday he was arraigned In
municipal court for examination and
during the day A. G. Prebble, assistant
Vermont fire warden, came to Benning-
ton from Montpelier and assisted In the
examination.
Through the combined efforts of
States Attorney Collins M. Graves
and Mr.. Prebble the young man was
led to make complete confession. He
told how he had gone to the Harvey
house and stoen a graphaphone and
some clothing, how he went away and
thought Of what he hi done and how
he returned last Tuesday night and set
fire to the house to cover the theft.
Layalley presented a pitlful appear.
ance in court. When he was placed
in the county Jail Saturday night his
condition was apparently normal but
when he was brought into court his
face and head were battered and he
was bleeding from the mouth. No one
appeared to be able to account for the
bruises further than the suspicion that
they were self inflicted. The hem
orrhage may have been the result OF
a peculiar afflietion which causes the
victim to b.eed at the mouth when I'm.
dergoing unusual excitement
Some OF the fiirnitnre and pef soma.
effects were saved from the, burning
house and Lavalley was one Of those
who worked the hardest in carrying
different articles to places of safety.
In passing sentence Judge Meagher
stated that he had all the sympathy
for the respondent because of his
physical Affections but the crime was
of eerious nature and merited a sew.
ere penalty Fortunately there was no
one in the house at the time It was set
on fire but this might not have beenthe
case and Lavalley might have been
guilty of murder instead of arson The
court referred to Layaleys previous
record He had been convicted Of
breaking into the quarters OF the Wood.

fence attached to his record.
