Some Impedimenta

There NAV come a day when cabin
building on the Sky Line Trail VIII
be child's play. The imagination can
picture the time when airplane land
ing stations may be hewn out on the
mountain sides. and all the necessary
paraphernalia can be dropped on the
scene. But as things are now the work
of preparation is tremendous The
site has to be chosen with care, and
regardless OF how inaccessible this
NAV be. the axes and saws, hammers
and spikes, chains and shovels, and
other tools all have to be lugged up on
the backs of the men A bushel OF
potatoes, canned goods, beef and bacon
and pork, fruit and milk coffee, cocoa
and tea, cereals, and large outfit OF
cooking utensils and incidentals, all
had to 90 up in the packs, too; and
even this does not include the big tent
which was a homemade affair by
Prof. Voter, and several sleeping bags
which the boys had taken up previous
w. Even a stable grind-stone was
carried up, too. This may not sound
like work, but carry 80 to 60 pounds
on your back up four miles Of steep,
rough trail and you will agree that it
feels like something. Prof Voter has
the idea that a burro would help a
lot, and it is possible thatsas the trail
life increases parties may be found
going over the mountain with dom
kew to carry their impedimenta The
beast might work out his board with
Prof. Boyce at Broad Loaf Inn and
be at the disposal Of hiking parties for
a small consideration.

The Moral of This Tale

The Green Mountain Club is doing
mans job. Most of the workers are
doing it all because they like TO, and
are meeting the expenses OF transpor-
tation, eats and incidentals out of their
own pockets. There are several mem
bers who have each spent a hundred
dollars or more to promote the Trail
idea, and since all Of this development
is for the good of those who come after,
and since it is sure to be one means
of attracting tourists to this section,
it ourtt to be project which every
body in Middlebury can get behind
without any division as to. creed or
party. The Club desires more members.
A campaign for membership is now on
and everybody who either loves the
mountains themselves or wants to help
others to enjoy them is urged to join.
The fee is only $500 a year and en-
rollment is made upon receipt OF the
money by Mrs. V. c. Harrington of
Middlebury, the. treasurer Full in
formation may be had from her or
from President Voter. Do it now

The Dramatis Personae

The seeming impossibility OF crowd
ing the chronicle OF three days in the
woods into the limits of three columns,
necessitates, before we proceed further,
some reference to the whole cast. This
included in addition to Prof. Voter and
ourselves, two classical authorities in
the persons of Professors R. H. White
(Latin) and Prof. W. S Burrage
Greek. While the former is 33rd
degree woodsman, the latter was on
this occasion making his first anabasis
up Sucker Brook and to his credit 1t
should be recorded that he negotiated
the climb with heavy pack OF CalvIs
oranges on his back. Prof. Arthur
r. Davis shared with Prof. Voter the
honors of the chemistry department
and the advantages of camping with
chemists will develop as this tale pro-
ceeds. Alban ]. Parker, instructor in
the Middlebury High School, was
valuable member, for although nick
named "Beaney" he was also sufficient
ly beefey to do some mighty hard
work The addition OF Prof. A. S.
Hartman, principal OF the Middlebury
High School, to the party was well ad-
vised His first thought on reaching
camp was to provide spruce boughs
for the beds In this he so far enlisted
the sympathy and help OF The Regis
ter that the mattress was soon built
some two feet deep and 80 feet long,
and upon being tested out it was found
to surpass an Ostermoor. Some diver
gence of opinion arose on the second
night as to this, especially from those
who slept with a big bough bullying
against their spinal columns.

A Card of Thanks

Arthur w. Eddy, superintendent Of
schools, was detained from joining the
Sucker party, but his donation of a
logging chain was duly accepted and
appreciation was very fttingly express
sed as he himself would have heard if
he had been present. Upon trying to
snake out the first log, the chain broke
and the four men who were pulling,
went sprawling in the glen. Repairs
were effected, but just sufficiently so
to provide a repetition Of this broken
chain comedy about dozen times.
The enlightening information incident
ally leaked out that Mr. Eddy had
bought this chain OF Sears, Roebuck
Co., which fact is referred to our To-
cal merchants as further accumula-
ton Of evidence against mail-order
practices,

Posuude

Even more desirable than money is
the presence of our own villagers in
the mountains. If one will but screw
up his courage to the sticking point,
shake off the SNUG laziness Of the
couch hammock, the reading lamp or
the car, and take a three or four days
hike on the sky line, he will find many
surprises in store. His greatest dis
covery will not be the grand panorama
that he will get from the submits, but
the better perspective that he gets Of
himself. The TRANSPORTATION Of the Sa-
vior Himself, supernatural as it was,
could not have occurred in any other
place than on the mountain top. The
experience is in some smaller sense
shared by any man who for the first
time finds himself standing on such a
lookout, for instance, as Silent Cliff.
The recalctrant members of the
Middlebury School Committee, or our
secretive friends on the Board Of Viii
lage Trustees, for instance, might I'M
dergo ssome desirable metamorphosis,
if they viewed themselves from the
proper height. Secret sessions on ST.
lent Cliff are good for the soul

Taking the Dope

The worst feature OF mountain Wis
its at this season is the bug life. Later
on in the summer they are less pesti-
ferrous, but JUST now the mosquitoes
are out looking for blood, and the
black flies are getting in their first
ticks. Here comes the advantage of
hiking with chemists No less than a
dozen mosquito dope formulas had
been worked out by Profs. Davis and
Voter and while there was dispute
about their respective merits, they all
looked and tasted alike Most of the
connections had tar as their base, and
every three hours or less it was the
proper ceremony to step up to the
chiffonier, which was huge white fun
gus, and take your choice of these tot
let waters. Prof Burrage's viii e
linen collar soon was striped with
ecrue, and all the creased faces, glow
ing in the evening freight looked
more like those of South Sea cannibals
than those of the faculty and students
of Middlebury College. But the dauby
dope did the trick, and kept the pests
at bay.

Casualties

Prof Burrage, for the most part,
sought to usurp The Registers role
as a detached observer, but it was his
luck on the first evening in camp to
draw low ace, which designated him
as the official dishwasher for that meal.
He had to perform the feat largely in
the dark, and he distinguished himself
in this act by spilling the just-heated
dishwater into the fire. This casualty
not being sufficient to put him out OF
the running, he tried on the second
dav to incapacitate himself entirely by
tripping over Greek root and CASH
ing a vein in his leg against the ugly
teeth of a saw. The profuse hemor-
rhage was stopped by Prof Davis,
whose first idea was to use black pep
per to CONCEAL the blood, but Prof.
Burrage allowed he would prefer the
tincture of iodine which, fortunately,
was on hand in the emergency kit
Anyhow, the accident won for the pro-
fessor a respite from log handling for
the rest OF the day.

Flora and Fauna

Although we are not particularly OBJ
servant as a student in such matters,
we did CLEAN bit from some OF the ma
ture classes conducted by "Beaney"
Parker and others. Sucker Brook is a
rendezvous for at least few deer, for
the tracks of several were seen, and
one fine specimen of the animal itself
was sighted. Nobody carried gun,
but that didn't prevent a little hunt
ing. Three hedgehogs were brought
down from the trees and gently club
bed into eternity. One garter snake
was despatched with skill. But the
editor himself took the biggest game,
having killed golf Trophies in his
possession will prove this valor Chip
hunks were abundant. A hawk whose
nest is at the halfway point on the
trail gave warning Of our invasion;
and an owl hooted his derision when
the party sprawled out for the first
nights rest. The tree-squeaks were
Just in their mating season. The whole
scene in the glen was delightful by
night or by day, and along the trail
one could pluck woodland violets in
one hand and nettle in the other. One
discovery of unusual interest was made
by Chemist Davis late one night when
he found some phosphorescent wood,
which glowed in the dark with the
brillancy of radium. There may be a
fortune in it for the author who first
produces comprehensive treatise on
the flora and fauna of the Long Trail.

The Shade of Joseph Battell

From time to time The Register has
urged its readers to give a thought to
our mountains. That this propaganda
NAV have borne some fruit is evident
from the fact that the Middlebury
Section of the Green Mountain Club
now has over a hundred members and
it's activities are expanding with every
season. The fact is, the propagation
Of this faith has been the work of
many other more energetic enthusi-
asts; but The Register does feel GER
tain personal relationship to the Long
Trail project in this section, for it
was the former proprietor OF this
paper, the unique Mr.. Battell, who
had the earliest visions of what great
assets our mountains might become
and it was he who did some of the
pioneering work in trail and cabin
building. The great tracts of noun
tain lands which he purchased while
many scoffed at his hobby are today
becoming very tangible assets, both in
the matter of scientific forestry under
the management OF Prof. E. l. Terry,
and in scenic development by the
Green Mountain Club as very acces-
sible and attractive part Of the great
Sky Line Trail.

has not yet worked out OF his system
the love of welding the axe and au-
thority. The former act he does skill
fully and the latter automatically. In
the matter of recruiting Suckers" Tor
the building of Sucker Lodge he draws
on some of his fellow members OF the
college faculty and a number OF fresh
men and sophomores who undoubtedly
labor under the delusion that every
log they cut and peel and snake out
of the mountain vastness adds point
to their scholastic standing But so
far as The Register went,-and in this
case it went the whole way simply be-
cause it couldn't turn back-it was
distinctly understood that our presence
was purely in the way OF moral sup
port. That undoubtedly counts for a
lot in any enterprise, but it didn't
make the proper support for a log
cabin, and the frst-act in the three
day drama was the carrying OF big fiat
rocks up from the brook to serve as
corner stones. Each member OF the
party made proper delivery except
ourselves; our rocks were contributed
f. o. b. in the brook and our logs +. o..

The Cabin Statistics

Inasmuch as there may be a few peo-
pie who will never get up to Sucker
Brook Lodge, and as those who do get
there may fail to appreciate the diff
culties that cucumber cabin building in
the wilderness, let It be chronicled that
the ten men engaged in the operations
over part of Saturday, Sunday and
Memorial Day, felled about twenty
five big spruce trees, peeled them, saw
ed them into 10 it. and Is it. logs, and
hauled them and twitched them and
snaked them and slid them and some
times carried them, at weights oil
1900 pounds or more, through all sorts
Of rough places for distances Of from
100 to 500 yards. Logs as thick as 10
inches were laid at the foundation In
the two days of actual working, nine
of these big logs were "scarfed' by
Prof. Voter and his gang and set so
snugly and sohdly that nothing less
than an earthquake would displace
them. Thus, three walls of the cabin
have at this juncture been built about
four feet high, the front of the cabin
being open The gang will soon COM
plete the job, and add a galvanized
IRON roof and upper and lower berths.

Baron Munchausen

AS a matter Of justice we are forced
to give special space to one member Of
the party, namely Wendell Brooks
Phillips. He protested that although
he had been in Middlebury for about
two years he had never enjoyed the
distinction OF seeing his name in the
paper. This exclusiveness is in itself a
distinction, but having moved for three
days in the presence Of said Phillips
we can no longer refrain from INTRO
ducing him to the public He is a
Georgia Cracker. He is so illterate
that he admits he was grown man
before he knew that damnyankee was
really two words But he has so lar
progressed in that he is now an IN
structor in English at Mddebury
College, and is doing post graduate
work in the hope of getting B. V. d.
in recognition of his very unusual learn
ing. This will all be i'll understood by
those who have failed to come in con-
tact with said Phillips; but with less
obscurity of meaning it may be plainly
chronicled that as cook and story
teller he is a regular cracker jack, and
in the role of william he would be an
ornament to any camp. 1t is one fea-
ture of a three-day retreat in the
mountains that the best and worst
comes out OF any man. This was true
of Phillips. The meals he provided
beggar description for excellence, and
they improved from day to day as he
got his hand in; while the stories he
told grew worse as his beard came out
until he looked like cave man and
the yarns he spun favored OF what
might have passed as parlor stores IN
the stone age. Were we to attempt
to recount these tales, the boost in The
Register circulation would precipi-
tously exhaust our entire present sup
ply of newsprint paper, to say nothing
of the heavy draft it would entail on
our stock of adjectives. Most OF the
warns were Of the Munchausen type.
The whole collection could best be
summed up in one sentence-say, six
months at Windsor.

The Innocents Abroad

But the morale Of the party had to
be maintained, despite the villain, Phil
lips. as the expedition included two in
nocent freshmen, Roland R. Crane OF
San Diego, Calf, and Cecil c. Sim
mons Of Millerton, N. Y. Young Crane
had evidently served an apprentice
ship at telling the giant California
red-woods, for the axe he welded sent
the big spruces PROSTATE at the first
blow. He and Simmons and orville

there are over 25 shelters and they are
being increased as fast as possible. The
plan is to have them at intervals Of
every five miles or so, but Middle
bury enthusiasts hope to do better
than this. The new cabin at Sucker
Brook is only four miles south of the
Lake Plead Lodge, and judging from
the size of the logs which have thus
far been put in place it will be one Of
the most substantial if not one of the
most attractive shelters on the whole
trail.

In the Land Of Goshen

The editor of The Register was the
eleventh member Of a mountain party
over the past weekend. By the invi-
tation of Prof. Voter, we joined the
expedition whose purpose was to build
a log cabin near the head waters OF
Sucker Brook, somewhere up in the
land of Goshen. Old Testament COM
mentators, we believe, are still at va
rance as to where the original land OF
Goshen lies, and as to its namesake
we confess, that even after a trip up
there and back, we have a certain
geographical vagueness of its where
abouts. But with proper guides we sue
ceeded in plotting the Ford around
the eastern edge of Lake Dunmore,
south to Forestdale, and thence turned
backward and upward into the noun
tains to an elevation OF some 1000
feet. A car that never before had seen
a mountain, and whose previous habi-
tat was in pancake Florida, naturally
protested and was perhaps to be ex-
cused when it blew off the radiator
cap from overheating in the climb. AT
the top, the site of what was once
the Trombly farm, Lizzie was weary
enough to stand for three days with
out hitching while her driver and other
occupants harnessed themselves with
their blankets and supplies and COM
menced the hike up the course OF
Sucker Brook through a family blazed
trail for an alleged distance OF four
miles. But this trail was never meas
ured except by the eye, and Prof
Voter in this instance was deemed as
poor a judge of distance as the ma1
who christened Bevo near beer.
