to find much of merrment and enter
tainment in the antics of the come

proprietor of the show, J. c. Rockwell
OF Melrose, Mass, said that he has al
ways been pleased with the local sup
port accorded his efforts and has en-
gagged to return in 1922 His 1921 per

was generously supported.
Mr.. Rockwell missed the grand old
figure OF Mlddlebury show history,
the late Frank Stone, who as manager
OF the town hall and later as truckman
and even host of visiting companies,
had made himself uniorgettable. 1T

Fire Wardens Offer Some Advice

ne hre wardens of the village of
Middleburv think that the community
IS to be congratulated on its freedom
from serious fires for several years.
This good fortune is attributed to the
care with which the house owners have
annually cleaned their furnaces before
lighting them in the fall The wardens
urge this cooperation on the part of
all Immediately and plan a strict in
spection of the district. Some negli-
gent property owners hive already been
warned without apparent result. ANY
failure to comply with the regulations
OF the fire district or the counsel of the
wardens will be treated as a serious Of
fense, said Warden c. F. Rich today.
The insurance rate of the villge can be
materially reduced if everybody will
take the precautions that will minimize
the risk of fires. Every chimney ought
to be thoroughly cleaned he SAID, be-
fore the fall fires are started.
