FELCHERVILLE

death oil MS sister, Mrs. Carpenter.
Funeral at Essex and burial at Bor-i
denville Wednesday. She had many
friends, as this was her home when
girl Sam is the last of the family.
All join in sympathy.
Frank Bundy has returned to his
home after week at his cousins,
Joel Bessey.
I School has two weeks more and
will close with picnic and light re-
freshments. If stormy, will stay at
schoolroom instead of going into the
woods.
Mr. and Mrs. Lucius Noyes, with
Miss Dot and Elizabeth, spent Sun
day at Elmore Pond.
A number went to the school play.
All thought it as good as plays that
stop here. They went to Johnson
Tuesday night.
Well, we found the owners for the
calves. One party sneaked them out
at night.
| had chance to take a ride Fri
day to Eden. The scenery was great
and never saw the pond when it look
ed better. Birds and flowers were
out for inspection and bird fancier
among the crowd saw a pair that is
not often seen and his song to his
mate would compare with any Gagged
pet.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ralph Whitcomb of
st. Adams were at her fathers, Joel
Bessey, for few days the first of
the week.
Miss Della Whitcomb and friend,
Mr.. Cantell, took a drive to Eden,
taking in the pond and ride up the
Notch road. They say the road is in
fine shape.
Mrs. Bohannon and family were in
Morrisyille on business last Satur-
day.
Mrs. E. G. Vaughn of Chicago and
daughter, Ruth, are visiting at Frank
| Hooper's.
Albert Fradette was visitor Sun
day at Mr.. Cota's.
The auction was well attended
Things sold well and Smith was at
his best. Mr.. Lamay has gone to
burlington to start over. Kind
wishes of all go with him. 1t is hard,
no matter how one looks at it. Il
ii. II. Bessey and wife of Enos-
burg are at his brothers on visit
Now get the organ looked at.
What came near being serious
accident was when a touring car
came within two feet of Ray Stetson's
line work team before they could stop
1t is dangerous the way they run the .
cars on this nice piece of road through
FelcherVille. Why don't some officer
come up here and see for himself
how the law is broken. There is a
chance to enforce some of our laws
and maybe save a life.
At Louis DecelPs he entertained
his mother and Mr.. and Mrs. Walter
Decell Sunday.
Ernest Bohannon of Morrisville
was caller at Mrs. Lillian Bohan-
mons Sunday
noticed In the paper that the vot-
ers get together and talk over who to
send to Montpelier to make our laws.
Now, my idea would be to talk over
VINO would enforce the laws we have.
We have laws for everything, but they
are not enforced. Why pay men to
go up there two or three months to
make laws that are never used? If
they only met once in four years it
would be great saving and we
would be just as well protected as
now, and have chance to try some
of the laws; and another thing read
that the citizens respect the laws and
uphold the officers; if reports are
true they would need some support
and holding up. We will need to do
a lot of wedding to get on a good
footing, and the place to commence
is in your home towns. The Ladies'
Clubs should take this up; this is
real work for you all to do
, Our school has received a fine pic
ture of Senator c. S. Page 1t has
been hung in the schoolroom and the
teacher told her, little ones stories of
the Senator's early days when he was
a lad like themselves and how by hard
work and close attention to every
part of any work he had to do he won
his way up round by round from the
foot to the~top of the ladder. We :
also received fine U. S. map which
the teacher and scholars extend their ,
thanks for. He is never more hap
pier than when he can help the home
town among the Vermont hills. May
he come back among the old friends /
and round out good old age after
he gives up his public work for j
younger men to do and comes back ;
to his native hills for the rest he has I
earned. ,

Mr.. and Mrs. Ed Styles of the Park {
last Tuesday; also Mr. Grimes ;
