the Citizens Telephone Company
organized a system in competition
with the mentioned firm. Soon the
New England Telephone Company
created another corporation, a sub
company which was operated as
the Passumpsic Telephone Co. The
rental was loW-$12 per year, and
Mr.. Carr asserted that the new
Organization was "out to get the
business"
Finally, the witness testified,
the New England Telephone Com
pany purchased and absorbed the
Citizens Telephone Company and
according to Mr.. Carr "junked the
whole business" The PassumpSic
Telephone Company was then dis
solved and its interests were taken
under the control of the mother
company.
Before the consolidation of the
companies there was extremely
sharp competition with the result
that there were more subscribers
proportionally than in other sec
tions of the state.
The hearing in the morning was
concluded at noon with the testl-
-mony of Milo E. Ladd of Water
ford who has to talk in a circuitous
route to his neighbor, a Mr. Rem
lex, who lives a short distance
away. MI. Ladd is thus assessed
a toll call.

CURRENT COMMENT
The Saving Habit

In spite of the slowing down Of
business all over the country saw
ings banks in Vermont have in
creased their deposits during the
past six months. This does not nee
essarly show thai earnings have
kept up but is a proof that people
VINO once learn the habit of thrift
continue to save money even
though their earnings are decreas-
ed. Every person who has ac-
Quired a compentence through hab-
its of savings declares that it is not
so much the size OF the income but
the ability to save that makes the
difference between thrifty per
son and the spendthrift. Practi-
cally every able-booied persons
enough during his lifetime to be-
come independent but only one in
100 will save enough to actually
achieve competence during the
days of his working life. Almost al
ways too, the one who does be-
come prosperous, is by any means
the one who has had the largest in
come.-Bennington Banner.

Catarrhal Deafness

is greatly relieved by const,tu-
tional treatment. HALLS CAT
ARRH MEDICINE is constitu-
tional remedy. Catarrhal Deaf
ness is caused by an infammed
condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachain Tube. When this
tube is infamed you have a rumbl-
ing sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result. Unless the
inflammation can be reduced, your
hearing may be DESTROYED forever.
HALLS CATARRH MEDICINE
acts through the blood on the mu-
cous surfaces of the system, thus
reducing the inflammation and as
slsting Nature in restoring normal

ing young people under uplifting
influences. If hey seek undesir-
able companionships, they can not
always be shown by argument the
harm done by such associations.
The thing to 10 Is to organize bet
ter comradeships. Girls that have
been induced to take up some form
of achievement, some atheletic
sport or study of some art like
music, under helpful and ennob
ling associations, soon find their
minds full of the desire for at
tainment.
They naturally become tired of
rough and coarse associates, and
soon see that their former ideals
were crude and unsatisfying.
Girls who grow up with such
broader interests, will never con-
stitute any fapper problem. They
will have charm and initiative of
the modern generation, but their
better associations will give them
a touch of refinement that will
protect them from coarse manners
and communicating associations,

 At the Wednesday evening meeting, Scoutmaster Freeman visited the local patrols and gave an interesting talk on Scout ing" Scoutmaster Freeman ask ed the Patagonia Scouts to help the American Legion enroll all service men. This is not done for mem bership, and enrolment does not carry any obligations with it, but simply gives the Le- zion a list of all service men.
