Jones. 1t is published by the Corn

PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO
YOUR CHILDREN
The Doctors Dream

-
To the Editor:
Dear Sir-Dreams are wonderful
things, aren't they? Let me tell yoJ
about one I had last night.
In my dream / read in one of the
morning newspapers a full page ad-
vertisement signed by one of the al
legged notorious murdere-s of men,
women and children. In this adver-
6semeut this chap issued solemn
warning to the people Of Chicago that
between the dates of January and
January 8, 1922, and each week there
after until further notice, he intends
numbering seven ehildren-children
that today are happy, rolliclCing
Observation-Disclosures their FIRST, or
second, or seventh Christmas.
According to the advertisement,
this murderer intends to give these
kiddiss only one chance to escape the
fste he has ordained for them. About
a week, maybe only two or three days
before be selects the seven victims, he
is going to visit about one hundred
families. In each family he is going
TO mark one child
I do not recall just now of what
the warning mark consisted, whether
IT was a black mark on the forehead,
or red mark on the cheek, or a sore
throat, or Just what It was. Anyway,
It was to be sufficiently distinctive to
be recognizable. The seven victims
selected for sacrifice were to come
from the group of one hundred fami-
lies who were given this special warn
ing.
In my dream ] walked out into the
street The excitement was intense.
Everywhere one saw excited groups
Of parents begging and pleading with
the policemen to come to their homes
to protect their children from the ter
rible death awaiting them As soon
as these parents had noted the warn
ing mark on their own child, they
were consumed with a terrible fear
that their own child was to be one of
the selected victims-one Of the seven
children to be put to death in the
FIRST week Of the New Year.
And then ! picked up the paper,
read the whole advertisement again
very carefully. / found that the warn
ing sign to be placed on the one hun
dred children consisted of a sore
throat, q little fever, maybe some
vomiting, perhaps a slight difficulty
m breathing. some discharge from the
nose, may be grsyish white mem
brane IN the throat. And the name
At the bottom of the page was
DIPHTHERIA.
Nov, Mr.. Editor, do you suppose

JOHN LILLE, VERMONT ARTIST.
His Work Will Be Displayed in Barre
Oct. "a.

A Vermont artist, discovered by
chance through visitation to Dorset by
a group of artists, has sprung into
much acclaim through the fidelity Of
his brush to nature He was car
penter, mason and plumber in his lit
tie community, and villagers recog-
nized his ability to do things right
along those lines; but they never sus-
pccted the hidden power that lay be-
hind the plebeian paintbrush Of their
townsman.
So it was left for the coming Of a
party Of artists from New York to
Dorset, first to inspire John Lille to
experiment with the artists brush
through the exhibition of their own
work in Lilies carriage house and
then to discover the genius in the
thoughtful. intelligent man, with a
strong rugged face and meditatiye
blue eyes" One day, after the artists
had filled the carriage house with
their paintings there mysteriously APP
peared another canvass" on thin
board. The artists were surprised and
perplexed. Who was the artistf No
one knew. Finally, they traced the
canvass" out to John Lille, their
host, and they learned that Lille had
done the canvass with ordinary
house painting brushes, a shaving
brush and an assortment Of house
paint.
There were unmistakable evidences
OF genius in the work and the artist
colony Of Dorset Immediately took
up" John Lille, encouraged him in his |
new field Of activity and, later, took
some of the canvasses to New York.
Thus John Lilies local fame became
enlarged.
To-day John Lille still lives in the
hills Of Vermont which he loves, and |
loves so well that he can reproduce
them on the canvass with striking
effect, and his work is gaining him
more and more distinction.
Lilies paintings will be exhibited
in the Quarry Bank hall, Barre, on
Tuesday, Oct. "a, at 2:30 and p. m.
under the auspices Of the Barre Wom-
ans club.
