GOVERNMENT PAYS VERMONT
SUM OF 100000

H. T. Johnson, Vermont adiutant
general has received from the treas
urcr Of the national government a
check for 100000, which he turned
over to w. G. Scott, state treasurer.
This check is the payment of a claim,
which Vermont had against the fed
cral government for the equipment
Of the First Vermont regiment
when it went TO Westfeld. Mass, at
the time the nation went into the
World war.
The Vermont regiment was better
eQuipned than any other in this sec
ton, due to the fact that General
Johnson went into the open market
and bought the equipment and the
payment of the same was made yes
tcrday. This frightened up the faces
of the appropriation committee of the
House when it was shown to the
members.

 He found the Akron Goodyear fac- tories whirring away at a rate only surpassed by the best month of 1920. The production now is in excess of 24,00o tires per day, giving the com bined Akron and California Good year total production of 27,5o0 per day.
 MT. Reilly observed big increase in sales effort in the Akron factories but again this is matched by the records made every day by the men of his own western sales organiza- tion, who increased the sales of 3ox3h non-skid tires alone, by 1000 per cent in July. s.

There are 12.000 consolidated rural 1 schools in operation in the United | States; and fully half the vehicles used in transporting children to and l from them are motor driven.

itan Association of the A. A. u, held

peting in a set of unsanctioned games

The evidence against Craw was sup
piled by Frederick j. v. Delaney, A. A.
u. commissioner for Queens, L. |. Mr..
Delaney was a spectator at the Bayside
games. He also identified number
of New York high and public school
boys, who competed in different events
at the outlaw meet under assumed
names. Their cases will be referred
by Mr.. Delaney TO the games committee

duct unbecoming a gentleman and using
abusive language to officials at the big
