SHERBR0OKE
IN CLOSE GAME
BEATS NEWPORT
Canadians Nose Out BOr-
der City Aggregation
BY 4 to 3 Score

Playing an uphill game all the
way against the strong Sherbrooke
nine and umpire Jack Watson,
Newport just came out shy of win
ming on Friday afternoon at Sher-
brooke by the score Of A to 3.
What looked like a ninth stanza
batting rally for Newport, was
nipped in the bud by Umps Wat
son, who called out Bruce at third
base, with nine down. Bruce was
safe by several feet in his slide
past " hite.
The border city lads had been
trailing all the afternoon. 1t was
with gusto that the handful of
Newport fans saw the locals flnu
1hormahlen in the seventh frame,
and pound him viciously. Maloney,
the big initial sacker, who has
at last discovered his batting eye
connected for triple to left field.
Bruce famed, but Ross caused
Maloney to tally with his timely
double. Connnie kirwan singled
and stole second. Both Kirwan
and Ross crossed the rubber, when
Bower slashed Thormahlen's drop
over first base for a hard double.
Incidentally the score was tied, and
the fans began to look for an ex-
ira inning contest.
In Sherbrooke's half of the sew
enth, Connie Kirwan, who had
pitched very creditably, was called
in from the slab. Bill Horan. the
latest acquisition to the Newport
tWirling corps, was injected into
the fray. Bill famed the first man
to face him, while the other two
were facile infield outs.
Next inning, however, Sher-
brooke gathered in another score.

SUCCESS MARKS
BICPACEANT
AT BARTON
Stupendous Production
Reflects Every lmpOr-
tant Event

Unusual success, refeclng
great credit upon the citizens OF
the town, marked the first presen-
tation, Friday evening of the Bar
ton Historical Pageant. The stu
pendous production, rejecting
every phase, and commemorating
every important event, with a cast
of more than 300 people, in 10
episodes, and dance interludeS,
held in awe and admiration,
throughout the entire initial per-
Torrance, the crowd OF 1900 spec
tators. 1t marked he 125th an
niversary of the settlement Of Bar
ton, named after its honored
founder, Col William Barton.
The pageant, costing thousands
of dollars to produce, enlivened
with faithful costumes and scenes,
depicted with a talented local ca st,
early Indian scenes, such noted
characters as General Lafayette,
a personal friend of Col. Barton,
the crafty smugglers of 1872, the
heroes Of the Civil War, the husk-
ing bee :hrong of merry makers,
made a profound impression upon
the audience. Every visissitude
in the history of Barton village
was graphically depicted up to and
including the recent World War.
No such undertaking of magni-
tude, similar to the Barton His
torical Pageant, has ever been az
tempted in Northeastern Vermont
Miss Imogene Phirps Hogle of
Boston deserves the lions share of
the credit for writing and produc-
ing the pageant. To Miss Madel-

PLYMOUTH
PATRONS TALK
MATTERS OVER
Treasurer Wood Urges
More and Better Team
Work

Patrons Of the Plymouth Cream
cry System to the number or more
than one hundred, met at St
Johnsbury town hall, Friday after
noon to talk over the business OF
the corporation.
The meeting was called to order
by Charles A. Welch, of Wheelock
one of the directors. He introduc-
ed Richard Pattee of Boston, sec
retary Of the New England Milk
Producers association, who stated
that his associates regretted very
much the misunderstanding that
has come about in the affairs OF
the Plymouth System. The N. h.
NJ. P. A. placed the facilities at
the disposal Of the creamery when
it was organized and expended
$500 for its success, one half OF
which it contributed to the enter
prise. This was done because il
was firmly believed that the CO.
operative idea under which the
Creamery was organized is the cor
rect method OF procedure and IS
sure to win out in the end. The
low price paid for milk recently Is
thought to have been the founda-
ton of the present local trouble,
but the Plymouth Creamery has
been paying more than many ot
the other large Boston concerns.
Secretary Pattee deplored the
criticism of the management OF
the Creamery and the attacks that
have been made on the system.
This attack is on your own prop
erty and tends TO break down the
confidence that is necessary TO
make such enterprises a success.
He said he believed the farmers of
this viicnitv were sensible enough
to find out the facts in this con-
troversy before they deserted the
enterprise they had themselves es-
tablished. He urged them, too, in
their investigation to try to find
out the facts in the matter and not
simply to substantiate or refute
somebody's charge. He showed by
blackboard comparisons why Ger
tain creameries at times had been
able to pay more than the Ply
mouth.
Leland T. Wood of Boston,
treasurer of the Plymouth Cream
erv System, was present and when
called on said that he welcomed
a thorough Investigation of tn.
company's affairs and believed
that concern doing a business OF
a million and a half dollars ought
to be we'll established in the
opinion of its stockholders and
patrons. He gave figures to show
that they had been paying $2.33
a hundred for surplus milk when
only one large dealer, Alden, had
paid more, 1924. Hoods price
was S1.9S; Turner's Falls, $2.14;
$2.03 for the same period.
Sales this year have increased ovel
one hundred per cent over a yea
ago. Lack of capital has circuh-
scrj6ed the efforts of the COM
pany more or less.
Treasurer Wood was emphatic !
in his denials concerning state
ments that have been circulated
reflecting upon the efficiency of
he local management and it was
his belief that a thorough investi- |
cation Of the company's affairs
would substantiate his beliefs and |
would reestablish the confidence

. London, July 15.---Premier Lloyd
George conferred today with Eamonn
DeValera, president of the Irish re-
public, and Sir James Craig, prime
minister of Ulster, on the second day
.cf Irish PEACE negotiations. He met
DeValera this morning and Craig
conferred with him this afternoon.
No statement was issued, however, as

Lloyd George and the Ulster lead
ers were closeted for two hours and

ready been gone over by Lloyd
George and DeValera. Lloyd George
appeared to be attempting to biting
the north and south Ireland leaders
together on a. basis of settlement
which would be agreeable to both.
