A PROPOS of the van Starken-
borghs. whose marriage took
place while he was attached to the
Netherlands legation here, It's .
pleasant thing to look back upon the
number of marriages between Hol-
landerr and American girls. which
have turned out notably happy. At
the moment there comes to mind
Jonkheer Louden. sometime Dutch
minister to the United States, whose
wife was Miss Lydia Eustis, awash-

pleasing-that Mr.. and Mrs..

mand at the parties which are being
given for the conference delegates.
They are probably having q much
better time here than they had in
Paris-all the fun without any Of
the responsibilities.
To be sure. Mr.. Lansing IL one OF
the Chinese delegations counsoIors,
but 1t is rather on thS score Of their
personal popularity that they are
being SO much feted-and because of
their acquaintance with half the

Bertha Hildreth Nye.

befCna OelIa dlIOroLn, OaugnCeT OIL
Dennisoh T. and Zelpha A. Hildreth,
was born at West Charleston on July
18th, 1867. On October 21st, she
married Walter Edward Nye of West
| Charleston. Soon after their mar
| riage the young couple came to Bar
ton and purchased the Nathan Ufford
farm where they resided for nearly
| 18 years, between Barton and West
Glover. After the sale of the farm
they came to Barton village where
Mr.. Nye and son still have their
home. Besides her husband Mrs. Nye
leaves to mourn her loss an only son,
Percy Hildreth Nye, his wife, Clara
Murphy Nye, and two grandsons,
Francis Walter and William Percy
Nye. She is also survived by one
sister, Mrs. John Shedd, of West
Charleston.
The funeral, which was held at the
home of the family on Monday after-
noon, March 14th, was largely at
tended by her friends and neighbors
as well as by a large circle OF rela-
tives. Wilmond Warner, for many
years her friend and pastor, was the
officiating clergyman, assisted Dy Rev.
Mr.. Hutchinson, pastor OF the COngre-
gational church of Barton.
The floral tributes were numerous
and very beautiful. Among those
from out of town attending the funer-
al were Mrs. John Shedd and Mr.. and
Mrs. Elden Shedd of West Charles
ton; Mr.. and Mrs. John Hildreth and
Mrs. Rosa Sawyer of Newport; Mrs:
Lewis Nye of Derby; Carlyle Nye OF
Manchester, N. H.; Mrs. Richardson
Of Orleans; Mr.. and Mrs. Stephen
Murphy and John and Henry Murphy
of Lowell and Mrs. Barney Dyer OF
ALBANY. and Mrs. Homer Hildreth of
Newport.
Those who have had the privilege of
knowing Bertha Nye will long remem-
ber her as a true friend and sweet
souled gentle woman of the best and
highest type of womanhood. She was
in the truest and best sense of the
term a "home maker" devoted, with
untiring love and effort to those whom
God had given her for her inner cir
Gle. A kind and sympathetic neigh
Dor, she has always been ready to give
the strength of her love and help to
all those about her whom she has seen
passing along ways of struggle and
sorrow. In the prime of her life and
strength, when it would have seemed
TO us CQdC SQc IIllSuC nave IldHy ulOIC
years of life with her husband and her
children she has been suddenly called
away to the life beyond. To live and
love and be so tenderly missed-is not
that the great accomplishment?
"It is we who may not cross over;
Only with song and prayer,
A little way into the glory
We may reach as we leave her there.
But we cannot think of her idle;
She must be home-maker still;
God giveth that work to the angels
Who fittest the task fulfill;
And somewhere yet in the hilltops
Of the country that hath no plain
She will watch in her beautiful door
way
To bid us welcome again"
CARD-We wish to extend our sim
cere and grateful thanks to the neigh
bors and friends who showed such
kindness and extended assistance dur
ing the death and burial of our wife
and mother. And we also wish to
thank those who gave the beautiful
flowers.

Orleans County National Farm Loan
Associations Announcement to
Farmers.

Although the United States su-
preme court has sustained all of the
contentious of the Federal Land
Banks regarding the constitutionality
of the Farm Loan act, much has stilg
to be done before the work of max
ing loans can be resumed.
Pres. Edward III. Thompson is in
Washington, d. c., in conference with
the Federal Farm Loan Bureau, and
all possible is being done to meet
changed conditions and put the sys-
tenn into working order again at the
earliest possible date.
Your secretary-treasurer has re-
Gently received instructions from the
Federal Land Bank of Springfield,
Mass, not to accept any applications
for loans at present; but to meet the
officials of the bank in a conference
to be held in Burlington March 30th
to discuss matters of interest bearing
on the present situation of the banks.
After that conference we hope to
be in position to tell those interest
ed, just what they may depend upon
in the matter of obtaining loans.
In the meantime, we are filing the
names of those who are making
known to us their wants in this di-
rection so that when the banks are
ready to resume loaning money, your
applications can be taken up in their
proper order.
We shall endeavor to keep the
farmers informed in regard to the
progress being made and forward ap-
plication blanks as soon as they can
be used.
