County White Ribboners to Meet
at Derby Line

The annual convention of the Or
leans County w. c. T. U. viii; be held
with the Derby Line Union on May
10TH
1t seemed best this year to put the
program all into one day hoping in
this way to make it possible for
many of our women to attend as it
is not too far to drive home after the
evening meeting.
The meeting will be held in the
Congregational church, which is just
over the Line in Rock Island, and as
Canada has daylight saving, it was
necessary to do some Juggling with
the time in order to make that agree
with our Standard time which means
an hour later in Canada.
Members of the executive board
please notice that that meeting is set
for 800 o'clock Tuesday morning and
as that is an important p,nntino
it is hopeA that every member will
be there at that time if possible.
A fine program has been arranged
and we hope we may have a record
attendance and good meeting. Come
prepared to stay through until after
the closing meeting Tuesday even

Next Fair.

The directors of the Orleans Coun-
lty Fair, at meeting held at Hotel
Barton, May I'd, gave a death stroke
to all kinds of gambling for this
years fair.
The work was started last year in
an attempt to clean up the fair from
this kind of amusement, and in going
to the extent the association has
done this year it is felt that the pub
lie in general will appreciate the
move and lend all the assistance it
can in an endeavor to make this
years fair the biggest-cleanest and
best that Orleans county has ever
had.
1t is the desire Of the directors that
this stand be given all the publicity
possible because it is a matter of
great Importance to every man, wom-
an and child in Orleans county.
Remember. this is your fair and the
than willing to do everything that is
within their power to make this the
pioneer fair in Vermont to clean it's
grounds of all undesirable features.
The premium list for the 1922 fair
has had several changes in regards to
classes, making more sections than it
has ever had before.
The usual charge for admitting
automobiles to the oval has been abol-
ished and the gate admission made
SO cents for automobiles instead of
35 cents as heretofore.
A new entrance will RECONSTRUCTED
on Park street making it easier to
handle the crowds and avoid the con-
gestion that has always bothered in

Barton Academy Wins Contest
with Johnson.

In very exciting game on the fair
grounds Barton won it's first game
of the season. The game was char
acterized by curious mixture of
rood and poor playing on both sides.
In the first inning Johnson started
off with two runs while the academy
1oys went out with only four balls
pitched. Johnson soon got lead of
six scores but in the ninth inning the
score was tied. In the 10th no scores
for either side. In the 18th Johnson
scored three runs but the local boys
again tied the score. In the 18th inn
ing no scores for either side. In the
next each side made one score. In
the 18th Johnson got one score. The
Barton boys tied the score again with
one man out. Then with two men on
bases Dyer got a two base hit Civ
ing US the game with two runs to the
good but as the game terminated
with the run which gave the lead the
score legally was II to 18 in favor
of the local team
The academy team did much bet
ter at the bat than at any game so
far. Much Improvement was shown
all through the team. Mudgett was
in good form. Valley played a good
game in spite of the fact that he had
sore hand and had been sick Dyer
is showing up well for a beginner.
Wakeman played consistent game
at second. Cornish and Smith both
connected with the ball for good
gains at the right time.
