OLD SOLDIERS REUNION

The old soldiers reunion held In
Philadelphia on Thursday and Fri
day OF last week was an inspiration
to the veterans and people OF Phila-
delphia alike. EARLY Thursday morn
ing the veterans began to arrive by
wagon, buggy, automobile and
train. They went first to the court
house where they registered and re-
ceived their badges. The morning
hours were spent in happy greetings
and renewal of old friendships. A
number of charming wives of the
soldiers were present. giving desir.
able touch Of femininity to this de-
lightful gathering.
The Henson Building had been con-
verted into an attractive s'mess
hall''. The ceiling was draped In the
,colors, red and white, while confed-
crate flags graced the walls. Tables
with snowy linens were spread, and
all meals were served there. A field
kitchen was put up and all food was
prepared and served under the super
vision OF the Boy Scouts.
After the dinner hour on Thursday
u meeting was called at the Court
house. Devotional exercises were
conducted by Rev. j. s. Purcell,
Supt. R. @. PEBBLES made splendid
talk touching upon the heritage OF
the present generation, and the ben
|etlts that have been handed down
by the wonderful men and women
who have lived before. He spoke OF
our present day civilization and the
part that womans Suffrage is play
in world affairs. Captain w. J. III.
McBeath OF Hico, Texas addressed
his comrades in a most appealing
manner. Captain McBeath is a man
OF unusual charm and personal mag
netism; a man who has grown old
gracefully. His message showed
that he possessed a mind developed
by years Of careful study Of the prob
lens Of life. He talked to his friends
OF their. duties as good citizens, and
appealed TO the younger people to
make the most Of the wonderful OPP
portunities OF today. He spoke OF
the mental, moral, physical and
spiritual phases of'liie, and pointed
ont the impossibility Of complete de-
velopment should either phase be
neglected. He spoke for about an
hour to an nttrntive audience.
In the eveningya d tfee picture show "
was given to the visitors at the City
Theater. aiter which they gathered
again IA the mess halI'. The tables
had been set aside and the flooI

When all is said and all is done In

are mostly associated with us In our
everyday life which have the domi-
mating Influence. 1t Is the family life
which makes the man or woman.
and 1t is the community life which
makes henation. The great dailles
OF the big centers of population OF a
necessity cannot keep the close per-
sonal touch with the everyday peo-
pie who form their readers that 1t is
possible Tor the country paper to
keep. The Editor of the country pa.
per knows by name all the men and
women OF the community to which
he speaks. They all know him ana
therefore everything that is printed
has double significance. The indi-

100000 LOSS IN READsBoRo.
Fire Tuesday Destroyed Paper Mill and
Power House.

Readsboro, May, 5.--Fire of unknown
origin last Tuesday destroyed the pa
per mill formerly owned by the Ma
tional Metal Edge Box company, and
the power house of the New England
Power company. The loss is estimated
at from $4,000 to 100000.
The fire started in passage-way be-
tween two buildings of the paper mill
and spread from there to the power
house. Most of the machinery in the
latter building was saved.
The paper mill was equipped with
automatic sprinklers. These worked
properly but were inadequate to con-
troll the blaze.
The paper mills were purchased by
the New England Power company a
few years ago, after the National Met
al Edge Box company lost its dam.
The power company bought for the wa
terpower rights. 1t was necessary to
purchase the plant in order to secure
these. II had since been operated by
the Valley Development company.

number Of buildings. Some of them
we're of frame construction. Others
were built of brick. About 30 men
we're employed there, not running at
capacity, and the stock on hand was
small. The loss was chiefly equip
ment. The buildings and machinery
were insured.
The towns fire protection system
consists of hydrants and the depart
ment is purely volunteer No men
are on duty at the engine house nor
mally.
Seeing that the mills were doomed
the fremen devoted most of their ener-
gies to salyaging what machinery it
was possible TO save and to protecting
neighboring buildings.
