FLONZALEY QUARTET
COMING TO COLLEGE
Worlds Greatest String Quartet
Will Give Concert Here

The Flonzaley Quartet, which is to
give concert in Mead Memorial
Chapel on Friday evening of next
week, is an organization whose aim
from the beginning has been music
Tor its own sake The Quartet was
formed in the summer of 1903 through
the initiative of E. J. deCoppet and AL
fred Pochon. Mr.. de Coppet was an
American music-lover, and the first
meeting of the organization was at his
Swiss villa, named Flonzaley, on the
shore of Lake Geneva. Hence the
name given to the organization Since
his death his son has continued the in
terest which the father took in the en-
terprise.
The players composing the Quartet
are Adolfo Betti, first violin; Alfred
Pochon, second violin; Louis Bailly,
viola; and Ivan d'Archambeau, cello.
There has been only one change in
personnel in seventeen years. That
was in 1917. when, owing to the war,
Louis Bailly was secured to take the
place of the original viola player. But
Mr. Bailly is one of the most promi-
nent viola PLAYERS in the world, and
the change which was made has result
ed only in a further strengthening of
the Quartet. Indeed, every one of the
four members had made a conspicuous
success as soloist before becoming
with this organization. The
whole energy of each one is now devot-
ed to the ensemble work
The Quartet has become famous for
is devotion to artistic ideals and for
he perfection of its achievements. 1t
laS also made other fundamental con-
ributions to the progress of music in
Europe and America In these seven
cen years, it has given about fifteen
hundred concerts in America and over
i've hundred in Europe 1t is an en-
'ouraging fact that this organization,
With these ideals, has risen by sheer ex-
'ellence to the foremost rank in the !
world ofmusic. Its coming to Middle
Jury is one of the most notable events
II the winters music in Vermont.

NIGHT TELEGRAMS
TO Be DELIVERED
Western Union Head Acts on Pres
Thomas Complaint

kilograms addressed to people in
Middlebury and vicinity will be de-
livered by telephone from Rutland or
Burlington after the closing of the
local Office of the Western Union in the
event that the urgency of the message
is sufficient to warrant this relay, ac-
cordlng to recent correspondence be-
tween President John M. Thomas of
Middlebury College and Mr. Newcomb
Carlton, President of the Western I'm
ion. The Rutland and Burlington off
ces have been instructed to deliver
such messages with all possible dis
patch, said Mr.. Carlton, who wrote
in reply to complaint from Doctor
Thomas that Miss Bertha E. Wood,
assistant librarian at the college, had
been unnecessarily delayed in reaching
the bedside of her dying mother be-
cause Of the non delivery of telegra-
phlc summons. In addition, the COM
pany will not make an extra charge
for the telephone call from either city.
The closing time of the local Office
is 8 o'clock each evening The other
offices, Vergennes and Bristol are also
closed at the same time, leaving Addi-
son County entirely without Western
Union service at night Doctor Thomas
requested Mr. Carlton to arrange for
the receipt of kilograms of urgency
after closing hours and explained Miss
Woods experience. Her mother had
asked that she be called to her bedside
and sufficiently early that had the
message been delivered that evening
Miss Wood would have been able to
reach home before her mother lapsed
into Inconsistencies from which she
did not recover Mr.. Carlton said that
he regretted the incident and explain
ed that the fault lay with the opera
tors in not relaying the message by
telephone as there had long been an
order that such method be followed in
similar circumstances. He wrote that
lie had appropriately taken up the mat
-er with the employees to blame and
hought that the omission would not

RIPTON SAW MILLS
BUZZ ON BATTELL SPRUCE
Quarter Million Feet Already Hauled
to Huntley Yards for Clapboards

Nearly a quarter million feet of su-
perior quality spruce from the Battell
Forest has been hauled into the yards
of the Huntlev saw mill in Ripton dur
ing the present winter. The logs are
ali of the highest quality, the best, it
is said, that have ever been cut in that
district They will be manufactured
into clapboards for distant markets
The opening of the saw mill last
year has given rise to a new industry
in Ripton. About 25 men will be en-
ployed in the manufacture of the clap
boards 1t was expected to begin op-
erations this week Milton Huntley,
Junior member of the firm of w. S.
Huntley & Son, will personally super
intend the main department of the
mill and William Sherman, represen-
tative of the town to the legislature,
will have charge of the clapboard saw.
There are ten teams engaged in haul
ing the logs Two of the largest loads
of the season were driven by Fred
Euber. with 1881 feet. and by Will
Gee, behind the Huntley team, with
20lS feet of the spruce The snow has
not melted on the mountain as here
in Middlebury, thus permitting splen-
did shedding during the past two
months.
There have been only four choppers
to fell the quarter million feet. The
quartet began early in the season and
had brought down enough OF the trees
to keep the sleds in motion from the
first good snowfall. The cutters are
William Landry Clarence Lathrop, E.
E. Hier and Dana Murray, all OF Rip
ton and veterans in their trade. There
have been no accidents to mar the
good record made by the men, not
even an axe injury having been re-
ported.

Meeting Goes on Record in Opposi-

The Father Daley Council of the
Knights of Columbus held special
meeting Sunday afternoon and confer
red the first degree upon a class of
candidates 1t was unanimously voted
at the meeting that copies of resolu-
tons OF opposition to the Smith Town
er bill now pending before Congress
should be sent to the Senators and
Representatives from Vermont. The
appointed to draw up the
resolutions by Grand Knight George
N: Shambo consisted of Peter 7.
HHncks, State Secretary, DR.. p. L. Do
rey' and Daniel p. Rossiter. The Coun-
cil went on record as opposing the bill
tor the reasons that the tax of hun
dreds OF millions of dollars would be
too great an addition to the already
staggering financial burdens of the
country, that the bill tended to des-
troy the Constitutional principle by
winch the States are assured ndepend-
ence in matters of education, that the
North would be paying the school tax
)l the South and others.
