FOUR WHEEL BRAKES
TO CUT INSURANCE

Reductions Announced as More Cars
Adopt the New System.
Four-wheel brake equipment has
resulted in reduction of collision and
property damage insurance rates by
the National Liberty, which has mott
fled its automobile agents tina: it will
allow reduction of 1919 in collision
rate and Sc in the property damage
rate on 1924 models of certain cars
equipped with four-wheel brakes,
Five Styles of cars are named.
In announcing the change in rates
the company states that it believes
that cars equipped with four-wheel
brakes are under better control and
under less hazard of collision and
damage. The announcement says:
Noting the rapidity with which
the four-wheel brake system is COM
ing to general use, and the inclina
tion of several important automobile
manufactures to equip their new
models with that system, the Nation
al Liberty, being convinced that it is
fhe latest advance in engineering, be-
lieves that a reduction in collision
and property damage premiums is
merited. Wisconsin Motorist.

LOW PAY, Low GRADE

Farmers cooperative associations,
as a rule, have some of the strongest
competition in the world. To sue
ceed against such strong competl-
ton these farm organizations must
be we'll managed. In the long run
this management will not be good,
and will not be equal to that of pri-
yate undertakings with which the
farmers are competing unless the
farmers have some regard for tt
salaries to which the operators OF
their business concerns are entitled.
of course we are all agreed that the
people in charge of farms co-opera-
tive organizations must have other
incentives than salary. Nevertheless,
if farmers think they can get the re-
CURED services for the operation of
their business enterprises on the
loyalty basis alone, and that they
do not have to meet competition of
private interests in this respect,
they are sure to be disappointed.
We all know that there are able
men who make great personal sac
rifces for the sake Of principles in
which they believe. Such men will
sometimes work for bare living to
put across an idea in which they
have faith. But the supply of such
men is not equal to the demand. AS
a rule, ability has to be paid for and
farmers will do well to keep this

GEORGES In "FEUD"
AT GROSVENORDALE
George Carlson and George
Whitney Discuss Their
Trout Catches

The "feud" that was created in the
not faded past, by one rooster. IS
again at its height at North Grosven-
ordale, and this time the trouble" is
all over a certain is-inch trout that
George Carlson caught. and another
speckled beauty that George Whitney
captured.
They do say that the trout that
George Carlson hooked was in grave
danger of disappearing the way the
rooster did, had not Mr.. George TAX
en- the precaution TO leave the fish
with his mother-in.law over night, so
that he might have il for relish AZ
lunch Friday.
SeoR at Story
Everybody SCOTS at the story that
Mr.. Georges mother-in-law held the
trout in her lap all Friday forenoon,
for fear some of George whitney's
followers would appear on the scene
and try the spied-piper" stuff on the
trout, in the hope that il would wig
gle out Of the house and back into the
brook again--and thus cheat Mr.. Carl
son out of his dainty morsel.
The trout that Mr.. Whitney caught
was a whopper. Not in fish-story lore,
but in actually. II weighed one
pound. seven ounces, and measured
l5is inches in length. This Mr..
George thought so much of his catch
that he entered 1t in the Largest
trout contest being conducted by a
Danielson sporting club.
Made Trout swallow Sinker
This isn't really the point of this
particular yarn. But here il is;
George Carlson affirms, and stoutly
too, that his friend George Whitney
made the trout swallow a lead sinker
so that II would weigh heavier. There
was no bulge on the trout to indicate
any such treatment, so the accusation
of Mr.. George c. against Mr.. George
W. is regarded as a lead pipe dream,
and there the matter stands.
The whole situation is so tense that
it would appear as il Agent John r
Reardon of the Grosvenordale Mills
will have to take cognizance of the sit
uation, officially. and settle the whole
matter as effectively as he did the
now locally famous rooster mystery.

FOR BETHEL INSTITUTE
Weli-known Institution Will Move te
Dudley Hill

Considerable interest is felt
throughout Windham county and in
Worcester county, Mass, in the an
nouneement of the coming of the
Bethel Bible Institute to Dudley Hill
next fad. where the Institute will oe-
enpy the buildings of the former
Nichols Academy.
The trials and struggles that Bethel
Institute school has undergone in the
past has brought the attention Of
many people Of Worcester county TO
the wonderful vitality of a group of
people who absolutely refuse 70 allow
hardships 10 interfere with their pro-
gram of education. To provide edu-
cation for young people who come TO
them with nothing but a willingness
to work for what they get in teaching,
is the sole ambition of those most in
terested in the school.
Somehow the funds that kept the
school going have been secured. and
this money has come because those
financially able TO assist were i'm
pressed with the earnestness and sin
certify of the school. Taking over the
buildings on Dudley Hill. has been a
gigantic undertaking, but with the
help of scores of people who are gen.
timely interested in the work, and
who are willing 10 make every effort
to assist the school, the campaign for
funds to finance the project shows ev-
cry probability of being accomplished.
June 18th to June S0th have been
selected as the days in which friends
OF the school will make an effort to
raise $3.50, 900 for the benefit of the
school, which, securely established,
viii add another notable educational
institution to this section Of the eoun-
try.
