CONFERENCE AT
NORTHFIELD OVER
General Satisfaction with Speakers and
Programs Expressed - Bible Adj
dresses This Week.

EAST NORTHFIELD, Mass, Aug.
24-When the 700 delegates to the Chris
tiam Endeayor Institute of Massachusetts
left East Mortified early this week sue
cessful conference season came TO an end.
Several of the conferences attracted
larger numbers than customary, and at
all of them there was a good attendance.
General satisfaction was expressed with
the programs and speakers.
Especially pleasing to those who had
the privilege of hearing him was the
presence of this year for the first time of
Rev Dr. Frederic Chambers Spur, Lon
don. England. DIR. Spur brought the
message of vital and intelligent Christ
ianity to Mortified delegates for a month
during the conferences of the Women s
Foreign Missionary societies, the Confer
ence of Religious Education and the
General Conference of Religious Work
ers At this last conference his addresses
were particularly effective, series of
talks given upon the relation of the new
psychology to the Christian church even
ualy attracting most of the members of
the conference although intended for
ministers alone.
The Christian Endeavor conference
WI ich has just closed had the pleasure of
enjoying the best of the weather this
summer, and the young men and young
women took advantage of the numerous
opportunities for healthful recreation
which Mortified affords.
A feature of the Christian Endeavor
Institute was the appearance on Satur-
day night. the 10Th, of Father En-
deavor'' (Rev. f. +. Clark the man who
founded the society. He gave an inspir-
ing address on the ideals of the society
and told of the great work being done by
Christian Endeavorers in Germany, Hun
gary and other countries in Europe,
which he has visited in the past six
months. There Is no country in the
world which now has no Christian En-
deavor society, he said.
Christians must stand for interna-
tionalism. since Christ himself was
against a narrow branch of nationalism
that took no heed of the sufferings of
other lands. Rev. DIR. Abram Z. Cory of
New York city told the Endeayorers the
closing day of the institute. He also
made a plea for unity of all Christian
churches in one denomination, and
pointed out the fact that China is leading
in this movement.
Many of the summer guests still in
town are attending the Bible addresses
being given this week at the Hotel North
field parlors, by Rev. ]. East Harrison
of Mount Hermon. Next Sunday the last
of the big auditorium meetings win be

NEwFANE.
Artist. Tonsorial and Musical.

Mr.. Editor:
On reaching this town, recently, | was
shaved by the local barber, Theodore
Holland. who told me that he could play
10 different musical instruments at the
same time and thought he held the
countrY's record in that line of en-
deavor. Afterwards / talked with sew
eTal citizens. who confirmed his claim
had seen him do the stunt, and praised
the correctness and quality of the music
he produced. During my stay at Mr..
Hollands shop he showed me some of
the musical instruments employed in
his exhibition, and adorned himself with
the bell cap, formed something like a
crown and giving him quite a 'kingly
appearance. He also showed me how he
played the harmonica without moving
it with his hands. The instruments in
Guided in Mr. Hollands outfit are at
taehed to or touched by his hands, feet,
legs, waist or arms and are as follows !:
Bell cap, harmonica, snare drum, vio-
lin, bones, Chinese bells, triangle and
several sets of Japanese iingles and
chime bells.
1T is wearing work. said Mr. Hol-
land, "as one has to wiGgle all over and
| have declined several offers to 90 on
the road"
Mr.. Holland has, as | learned, several
other accomplishments. The barber shop
is beautified by oil paintings of his own,
production, and he is the composer OF
BARNES.

Mr.. Proctor for Governor.
Barre Times.)

Vermont is about ready to select its
next governor. To be sure. there will
have to be the formality of going through
both a primary and an election before
the thing is accomplished but, to all in
tents and purposes. the choice first made
will be the final choice In other words.
Vermont is really going TO elect a COVER
! nor on Sept. II. There are two Repub-
lican candidates and one Democratic can
didate The Republican candidate who
secures a majority of his party's vote on
that date WILL in the course of events,
become governor of Vermont
The two men who are seeking the NOM
ination for the governorship are the pres
ent lieutenant governor of the state,
Abram w. FOOte of Cornwall, and Red
ED Proctor, a former member of the legis-
lature in both branches. Both are sturdy
Vermonters and 100 per cent Americans.
No one questions the honesty and in
tegrity of either. As men they stand on
an equal plane and on that ground alone
it would be hard to choose between the
two But of course, there are other
matters to be brought into consideration
in the selection of a chief executive of
the state of Vermont
One of those considerations and one
which weighs most heavily is that of
executive ability and training in bust
ness. There. too, it is difficult to say that
one has executive ability and training IN
business and the other has not. Both
Lieut-Gover. Foote and Mr.. Proctor
have had considerable experience along
that line but we should say that Mr.
Proctor although younger in years of
service. has had, perhaps, the wider OPP
portunity in the business world through
connection with a Vermont concern of
large proportions and is. moreover just at
tie stage when men develop most rapidly
in large affairs. He has shown traits of
executive ability that should serve him
well in the office of governor.
Mr. Proctor has been close student
of Vermont affairs, both governmental
and otherwise. and has some rather sound
ideas as to how the government of Yer
mont should be conducted. Alone, he
can do nothing, of course; but with the
cooperation of the legislature he ought
to be able to do something beneficial to
the state of Vermont. That he would
secure that cooperation seems probable
because of the tact with which be APP
prOaches people and issues. So we should
say. and without disparaging Lieut.. Gov.
Foote in any way, that we believe Yer
monts best interests would be served by
the selection of Mr. Proctor for governor.

Town Drunkards.
lFitchbnrg Sentinel.

Have you noticed the passing of that
famous character known as the Town
Drunkard? He is nearly extinct
Twenty years ago, and even less, no
community was complete without a
Town Drunkard. If he We're married,
his wife usually had to take in wash
ings. If single, he slept in the lanyard,
back of the grain elevator or in any
other convenient and rent-free locality
that goes to make up the typical village.
In the cities, the Town Drunkard' S
residence and means of support always
were somewhat of Il mystery, though he
passed many night in Jail.
There were all kinds of Town Drunk
ards. from Migrants to worthless sons of
respectable and Woodworking families.
Whether rich or poor, in village or city,
they were all tarred with the same stick.
Their thirst was characteristic and mu-
tual.
When the Town Drunkard couldn t
bum the price of a drink, he sometimes
resorted TO draining the few remaining
drops from the empty bottle behind the
village tavern or the depot where they
awaited shipment back TO the brewers
and distillers.
All Town Drunkards, whether or not
they were like the father of Huckleberry
Finn, always had some woman eating
her heart out with worry.
How many people, now scheming like
bucketshop plungers to get n drink, re-
call the heartaches and misery in the
home where some male member had de
veloped the appetite that was getting
the best of himg
The outlaw, John Barleycorn, has be-
come almost an heroic figure. People
seem to be forgetting his monstrous side.
Prohibition has it's defects. There is
much drinking in some homes among
people who never thought of it before
the country went dry"
In the main, though, the nation seems
TO be basically against alsohoi A refer
endum would find a good many vets, at
the last minute, changing their minds
and voting dry. Light wines and beer
may be returning, maybe not, but the
hard stuff is gone for good. In all the
talk about modifying the Volstead act, /"
the most interesting feature is that prac-
tically no one is plugging for a return of
! the saloon.
And the Town Drunkards who have
reformed by necessity are the driest of
the drys, in a good many cases-except
where they couldn't stand the change
and the undertaken had to pour them
back into the jug.
