Verdict of S9,537.S7
In Sugar Case


court at Montpelier. The argu-
ments were finished yesterday
morning. W. X. Austin Of Burling-
ton made the argument for. the
plaintiff and Johl W. Redmond of
Newport for the defendant. Judge
Howe delivered the charge.
Attorney Redmond did not spare
the principal witnesses of the
plaintiff. MesSrs. Leon WisWell,
General Manager Samuel Blodgett
and others as he dwelt at length
ON the details of the conversation,
acts Of the officials and bill of lad
ing records which he alleged con-
stituted a modification o fthe sug
ar contract He asked the jury to
say after listening to him (Red-
mond) argue it they believed that
the grocery company officials had
talked to him for two hours and
didn't know that they intended to
fight any attempt to make them
pay for the second ear Of sugar.
The plaintiff in this case, claims
that the defendant Oh May 20,
1920 contracted for two cars of
Java sugar at % cents a pound.
One car was delivered. One car Of
200 bags and about 200 pounds TO
the bag, Is in controversy.
The defendant claimed that on
September Is of, the same year he
had conversation with MrO'Neill
the office saleman, and the MO-
Neill promised to see what he could
do for him to relieve him Of the
second car Hamblett declared that
The Caledonian-record. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1920-current, 1922-04-07

if he was obliged to take the sec
ond car he would be bankrupt. He
alleges that the contract was modi-
fled verbally and he was so in
formed. The defense claims that
Mr.. Blodgett told Mr.. O'Neill in
substance he would not have TO
worry and they take care Of the
matter. This appeared to be the
point on which difference of opin-
ion existed. The defendant allcg-
ing that a written report Of a con
versation with Mr.. Blodgett made
by Mr.. O'Neill had been changed
from the way originally written.
In the course of the trial it APP
peared that there was one witness
of the conversation between Mr..
Hamblett and Nh O'Neill at
Woodsville, and that the check Of
Hamblett was held until the fol-
lowing June pending adjustment,
it was claimed. Stress was laid ON
a two hours interview in Atty.
Redmond's office in the course Of
which Mr.. Redmond said that
Ralph would pay the claim when
~ jury men said so. Correspond
ence also figured in the case, which
tended to show that the grocery
company complained it wa not
getting business from Hamblett
the loss it had taken
on the sugar. Il appeared that
the grocery company was making
a margin of three quarters of u
cent profit per pound on the sug-
ar delivered in Newport.
The case has been followed with
interest by grocers and others who
had sugar contracts during The
strenuous liquidation days follow
inc the war.

The sex appeal has a CONNER
cial side as a play like some Of
those | have mentioned will
bring in two or three million dol
lars. The movie men have their
eyes on the box receipts all the
time.
Answering the question what is
your responsibility in the matter
he said that President Hampton
said that the picture manufacture
ers would rather produce clean
pictures than risque pictures but
he cannot sell a drama TO an au-
dience that hungers for sex stuff
Decent dramas, says Mr.. Hamp-
ton, bring him a return Of $4,000
TO Sl0O,000, while . successful sex
play viii run for S250,000 to
81, 100000.
Keep your small children away
from the movies unless you per
sonally accompany them. Educate
their taste in movies as you do in
books. You would burn any
book that was one-tenth as bad
as the average movie. Never let
a child see a film that you have
not personally seen and approved
Of. You may be fooled by the
picture, but you can leave the
thcatcr. A stampede of patrons
from a thcater that produced a
salaeious play would soon change
the class Of shows at that place.
State censorship has mostly been
thrown down and Federal censor

mate censorship rests on the
people Of each town and city as
to what they will allow on the
screens of their theaters If
everybody got together and utter
ed a vigorous protest against any
plaVS with Il faint it goes without
saying that their managers would
take them off their screens. The
managers will give the public
what the public demands. and the
box office receipts are the Surest
Indications Of the public's taste.

LOVERS LOSE DEFENSE \
IF THEY DO NOT insure

PIERRE, 8. D., April 27.-The
state supreme court has ruled in the
case Of Richardson VS.. Farmers CO.
operative union that where an en-
p1oyer has not insured his risk he
is not entitled to- the limitation of
the payments under the compensa-
ton law in case of injury to an
employe. The court held that the
legislature did not intend that en-
ployers who faD to insure be allowed
to claim the limitations Of the COM
pensation law in settling with the
employe, but that a common law
action is the proper procedure, with
the employer barred from making
any defense of contributorye 'negli-
gence or assumed risk.
The decision, in effect, means that
where there is no insurance the en-
ploye needs only to prove injury, and
the jury fixes the amount due him
without consideration of the limita-
ton of the workmen's compensation

The costuming of "SprinGtime'
which is the Arch b. Christ Church
Service League benefit musical play,
and which will be given at the Co
mique theatre on Feb. 20, q and %,
is said to he the most elaborate ever
designed for a local talent production.
The action of the play takes us
through three periods of fashion, 1868,
1888 and the present.
Libraries were secured for, old fash
Toned plates correctly describing the
costumes worn at these periods in our
national history, Master designers
then created the models from which
the various costumes We're finally
made.
While the costuning and scenery are
only incidental to the action of the
play, nevertheless the pains taken in
having every detail OF these correct,
indicates the thoroughness with which
John B. Rogers Producing Company
works.
