BOY BLESSED
WITH EIGHT
GRANDPARENTS

Little Robert Hovey, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Ralph Hovey of
Lyndon, who was born at the
Fitch Hospital on Friday,
starts off with more than an
average of admiring relatives,
as he has eight living grand
parents.
There are those who assert
that grandparents always spoil
the child. If this were true,
little Mr.. Hovey would be
badly handicapped, but we do
not believe it. Rather, it
should be asserted that the
young man starts off wonder
fully fortified and blessed with
the good things of this world
that no money can buy.
The happy double quartet
of grandparents are: Mr.. and
Mrs. Harry Hovey and Mr..
and Mrs. Fred Pond of Lyn-
donville; Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. L.
Hovcy of St. Johnsbury and
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Kimball
of Glover.

MONTREAL TO
FEATURE HERE
ON SATURDAY
Indians Strongest Cub In
City League To Play
Locals

In lieu of the Magog game which
has scheduled for Saturday this
week but which was postponed,
Manager Charles Hoernle has ar
ranged for a Contest with the
Montreal Indians, one Of the fast
est teams in the city league there.
1t is expected that the Magog
game will be played sometime la
ter.
Jake Malcolm, the leading In
dian finger, is an old University
of Vermont slab artist. Jake is one
of the pitchers who have turned
in no-hit games while wearing the
Green and Gold colors at the Bur-
lington institution. Jake is still
heaving them down the alley with
his former stuff and if his manager
pitches him Saturday, as is very
likely, the local fans will witness
a fine hurting exhibition.
The Montreal Indians have play
ed Burlington this year, st. HUI
bert's, a strong aggregation in
Canada, and the best semi-pro
clubs througout the province of
Quebec. To secure a game with
the Indians has meant greater
guarantee expenditure than usual,
Manager Hoernle states.
With Clarence Witty doing the
heaving honors today against Bur
lington, Cuddy Murphy will be
held in reserve for the invaders on
Saturday.

BIG YEAR AHEAD
FOR ST. JOHNS
BURY ACADEMY
Arrangements Made to
Accommodate Record At
tendance of Pupils

Applications from nonresident
students have increased in num-
Der until it has become necessary
for the trustees of st. Johnsbury
Academy to provide additional
dormitory accommodations in or
der to house all who desire to at
tend the academy when it opens
OR September 5th. The trustees
have decided to reopen South Hall
as a dormitory. This restores
South Hall 70 its original use.
The solid partition which runs
through the center of the building
and makes virtually two buildings
out of the one structure never has
been removed. Girls formerly
roomed on the south side and boys
on the north side. The same plan
is again being adopted. The
rooms on the south side are being
attractively redecorated and COM
fortably refurnished for girls and
for some of the women teachers,
and the rooms on the north side
for boys. There will be a recep-
ton room for the girls and one
for the boys.
Dining room facilities are being
provided for all nonresident stu
dents and teachers who wish to

Gaines park before an enthusiastic
crowd that almost forgot, in the
growing excitement of the game,
to shiver before the chill of a day
which seemed more suitable for
football than base ball.
The thing near to the Border
town boys hearts has been ac-
complished. They have broken the
jinx which hovered over their
heads each time they met the
Fairbanks swatters.
1t was Newport's day; there is
no question about it. They hit a
very little oftener, but a very, very
great deal harder than their II
walls. They won in spite of that
slow-up in the seventh when Ma
loney's fly refused to stick in
Brownies nit, but instead insisted
in rolling under right field fence
thereby allowing Maloney and the
two men who preceded him to
slip three runs across the platter.
Yet St. Johnsbury need not feel
stepped in a slough of chagrin, for
she, too, fought valantly through
every inch of the nine innings of
this master game. 1t was simply
written in the stars that on Tues
day, August the eighth, the boys
of Bordertown were to pick up
their mighty swat-sticks and hack
their way to victory, and all sooth-
savers know we'll that when a
thing is written in the stars,
there exists not a tribe of bats
men who can battle fate. And
speaking of stars, there is one of
them who bushes under the eu-
phonious cognomen of Bernie,
who has shining aspirations which
lead US to believe that he is un-
derstudying these celestial bodies.
Sing ye all the praise of Bernie
Starr, who nonchalantly steps to
the bat in the fifth and slams d
small rotound object clean over
the right field fence. One, two,
three bases ne makes and then
crosses the platter as safe as a
baby in its crib. Sing ye again his
praise when in the seventh, his
next time at the bat, he puts that
same small rotund object through

evidently not having had time to
heal up from its previous vicious
treatment. Sing ye his praise as
he makes a round trip Of the base

OLD MILESTONE
AS MARKER AT
EAST VILLAGE
Will Perpetuate Memory
of Gates Family and
Early Industry

A worthy project is on foot at
East St. Johnsbury to commem-
morate the passing of an early in
dustry, and incidentally the pass
ing of the immediate projectors,
the Gates family and its long line
Of stalwart patrons of the old-time
industry.
Directly in front of the old Gates
home, which was burned some
years ago, is a triangle formed by
the junction of two roads. and a
short cut road between them. In
that triangle lies an old granite
mill stone used by one generation
of the Gates family back in the
infancy of mechanical water pow
er This was recently unearthed in
filling the cellar of the Gates place.
1t is proposed to place this mill
stone in a square of cement and
have the same properly marked. 1t
will be tilted towards the western
approach, the triangle put in order
and a fund raised for its mainten-
ance, to be placed in the hands of
the Selectmen.
The plan meets with the hearty
approval of the selectmen and
road commissioner and the project
is in the hands of George Copp.
The project is yet in its infancy,
and the Gates family know moth
ing of the move, out will be CON
suited. The people of the East
village are delighted with the
scheme and are anxious to help
perpetuate an old-time industry in

ARREST THREE
FOR BREACH
OF THE PEACE
CHARGED With Assault Up
on Strike Breakers Sat
urday and Monday

Sheriff w. H. Worthen brought
three men from Lyndonville to the
Jail Tuesday night charged with
breach of the peace and assault in
connection with the railroad strike.
All were released on bail of 5000
each for a subsequent hearing, the
bail being furnished by W. X.
Cleary of Lyndonville and his sis
ter.
Frank Bell and Raymond Hun
ter were charged with breach of
the peace and assault upon Ed
ward Rice at a dance at Burke
Saturday night. The trouble began
with a discussion of the strike sit
uation and ended in settlement
of the disputed points with fists
rather than mere words. Mr. Rice
is one of the new workmen at the
railroad shops and one of his al
legged assailants is among the 300
now out on a strike. The two men
will be given hearing at Burke
on Wednesday, Aug. 10
Noel J. Lachance was charged
with breach of the peace and as
sault upon William A. Ahearn on
the South Wheelock road Monday
night and Mr.. Ahearn claims that
Lachance was one of his assailants
He will be given hearing at Lyn-
donviIle Wednesday, Aug. %. Mr..
Lachance is out on the strike and
Mr.. Ahearn was working in the
engine house.
The cases will be brought by
States Attorney Campbell and all
three o fthe respondents have en-
gagged counsel to fight the charges
brought against them.

not countenance any of the dis
orders that had occurred either at
Lyndonville. or anywhere else, as
the union members realize that
these disturbances only prejudice
their side of the case in the ewes
OF the public.
Mr.. Cleary has just returned
from Chicago where he attended
the meeting called by B. M. Jewell
president of the Shopcrafts union
III response 20 the request from
President Harding. Ninety repre-
scntatives from the three execu-
tive boards of the union were pres
ent, representing the three geo.
graphical divisions, of the union.
The telegram sent by the Presi-
dent to Mr.. Jewell proposing
terms for the settlement of the
strike was read and generally dis
cussed by all present.
The first proposition, said
Mr. Cleary, "was for both sides to
recognize all the decisions of the
Labor Board. The second propo-
sition was to have the carriers
withdraw all lawsuits growing out
of the strike. AS far as the Bos-
ton and Maine is concerned there
has been but one suit to my
knowledge and this was the in
junction served on one of our
members for picketing a Boston
employment office.
"The third proviso of the Presi-
dents telegram provided that all
employees now out be taken back
work with seniority rights unim-
paired. The railroad executives
had met the President. but had re-
fused to accept the Presidents
suggestions, while the union was
ready to abide by the seniority
proposal and settle other disputes
with the Labor Board later. If the
railroad executives had only agreed
the strike would have been settled
at once. But the men propose to
stand for their seniority rights, a
question which developed after the
strike occurred. After our Chicago
conference the delegates went to
their respective homes with the
understanding that if the other
side accepted the Presidents pro-
posals the strike would be over"
Mr., Cleary then explained some
of the seven rules which might
later be adjusted by the United
States Labor Board and which he
said the railroads had recognized
for 80 years and were now being
violated. These related to over
time pay, Sunday paw, travelling
expenses when on work away from
home, extra pay for holidays, etc.
