meeting held at the L. C. A.. build
ing under the direction of Supervisor
Smith.
Both the nominees for representa-
tive from this town. Rollie Crocker,
republican, and Frank Stewart, DEM
ocrat, are exemplary young men.
However, it is in all fairness that
the election should go to the first
named, for the reason that the north
village is entitled to the same, this
end of the town having had several
representatives in succession. There
are other reasons, among them Mr..
Crocker being a representative farmer
and most of all he is the republican
nominee. So give "Rollie" rousing
vote.

COMING TO VERMONT
The New Commander, American
Legion, Owsley, mad Judge Landis
Coming to Burlington.

Alvin M. Owsley of Texas is COM
ing to Burlington, as is also Judge
X. M. Lands, basebalPs generals
simo, said Commander Allen Fletcher
and his buddies, when their specially
chartered steel baggage car pulled
in early one morning last week.
The Legionnaires are in the pink of
condition and thoroughly enjoyed the
trip South and while some of the
Vermonters stopped off on the home
trip, the Burlingtonians all mustered
at the Union Station to report home.
National Commander Owsley is the
major figure among the group of
Legion men who will be in B1rling-
ton in January for the mid-winter
conference of the Vermont depart
ment of the American Legion and
Women's Auxiliary. Judge Lands,
idol Of the baseball world, also prom
ised Mr.. Fletcher that he will be on
hand for the mid-winter conference.
DR.. Robert c. Blood of Concord,
N. H., New England's only national
vice-commander this year, who was
commander of the New Hampshire
department of the Legion in 1921, and
Russell G. Creviston of indianapolis,
Ind, will be prominent veterans to
attend the conference in Burlington.
The Vermont delegation of Legion
| naires left Burlington in their bags
gage car on Thursday, Oct. IL, and
reached New Orleans on Sunday, Oct.
Is. The Green Mountain Boys, after
| canvass of the situation, swung to
Owsley and cast their votes for him
as national commander. Commander
Fletcher describes him as "a wonder
full chap"
National Commander, Owsley as
head of the Legion's Americanization
committee, spoke in Rutland and Bel
lows Falls before Legion gatherings
last May.
1t is the opinion of the state Legion
men that w. F. Deegan of New York,
who opposed Owsley for national COM
mander, had criticised Col. Charles
r. Forbes, head of the United States
Veterans Bureau, too severely and
thereby lost popularity.
While in New Orleans the Ver-
mont Legionnaires were hosts to
Major Andrew W. McShane, who de-
clared to Mrs. Cornie Glynn Cocklin
of Rutland, president of the Auxiliary
in Vermont, that her fellow states
men were among "the cleanest and
most manly at the convention" P. A.
Best, formerly of Franklin county,
a director of the New Orleans Cham
ber of Commerce, banker, traction
magnate and prominent hotel stock
holder, feted the Vermont Legion
men during their sojourn at his hotel
the st. Charles, where they estab-
lished headquarters.
Vermont fixes US up after we're
dead, that's where the granite tomb
stones come FROM" was the greeting
accorded the Vermont boys as their
baggage car passed through COM
munities below the Mason Dixon line

Fire at Greensboro

The. M. w. A. building at Green's
boro Bend, owned by R. A. Richie,
and comprising the hall upstairs and
three tenements beneath, occupied by
A. G. Cox and Frank Wiley, was
destroyed by fire the evening of Oct.
81. The cause of the fire is thought
to be an over-heated stove in the
hall, fire having been built to warm
the hall for the moving picture show
in the evening.
Mr.. Coles house close by and the
Methodist Episcopal Church both took
fire several times, but by hard and
persistent work it was put out.
The tenants saved most of their
goods, but the hall fixtures and pic
ture machine were all burned. It is
understood that the picture man had
no insurance, but the building was
valued at $4,000 and was insured for
50, 900.
