why not Stan- stead?Is it because those who make the greatest clamor for a position usually eucceed in getting it?Oer- tainly Stanstead has done as much for education as any other piace in the Townships.The purely rural schools of Stanstead county, and Stanstead township in pertioular, have come in for some harsh criticism; has it oc- ourred to no one that the existance of a superior institution like Stanstead Oollege might have something to do with the decline of some of the small schools around it?The Protestant Committee would be strengthened by the acquisition of such an able educs- tionlst as Principal -Troeman, bnt Prinoipal Trueman is a modest man, and if anyone should suggest his name be would probably fiad a polite way of avoiding further responsibilities.TOWN TOPICS.Mr.H, T.O'Donnell, of Boston, wae in town Tuesday.Mr.A.E.Capen of Lennoxville was in town Tuesday.Mr.C.C.Hildebrand, of Detroit, Was in town Wednesday.Mr.and Mrs.R.CO.Jones of Lyn- donvilie were in town Tuesday.Take a day off and attend the County Pair at Ayer\u2019s Cliff, August 28th and th.Mr.F.W.and B.F.Stewart were in Montreal buying fall goods the first of the week.Mrs.J.M.Phelan and Master Sidney went to Cookehire on Saturday to visit relatives.Mrs.D.M.Peasley and Miss Kate Donnigan, of Dorchester, Mass.are visiting relatives in town.Mr.and Mrs.À.L.Bean, vf New York, spent the week-end with his father, Samuel Bean, Derby Line.Mr.Abbott À.Lawrence, of Boston, and party of six in a big Packard automobile were in town Tuesday.Mr.and Mrs.A.G.Upston and Mrs.Upston, of Medford, Mass., were in town Tuesday and Wednesday.Mr.and Mrs.W.H.Hovey and Mr.and Mrs.A.E, Bishop spent Sunday at Knowlton, going by automobile, Mr.and Mrs.H.Wilder Pierce, of Jacksonville, Fia., are the guests of Mr.Pierce\u2019s parents, Mr.and Mrs.H.F.Pierce.\u2019 Rev.W.M.Strout of Caswell\u2019s Mills was in town Monday en route to Lakeside, Me., where he isspending his holidays.The store of B.F.Stewart und H, C.Wilson & Sons, Ltd.has been thoroughly renovated and now presents a flne appearance.Mr.J.C.Mooney, of 8t.Johusbury, the veteran salesman of advertising epecialtios, was in town Tuesday and ednesday.Judge Benjamin Lindsay of Denver, Col., \u2018the father of the juvenile court and one of the leaders of the Progress- Party spoke to a large audience at Barton Vt., Monday afternoon.J.'D.McFadyen of the Stanstead Mr.Bert Tiffin reports seeing a flook of sixty wild geese flying south-east on Monday.You can\u2019t fool a goose, he knows when to go where it is warmer.This indicates a cool September and early fall.College has spent two weeks travelling west of the lake and reports the outlook for the College this year is brighter than ever.He started out again Wednesday for a trip north and east.He seeks out prospective stu- pents and gives them fuil information about the department of the school in which they are interested.The current month is already the grayest, raioest August for 25 years.While hay, small grains, fruits, roots and vegetables are a very full crop and a most excellent quality.Corn needs at least 3 weeks of hot weather to mature.Our farmers despair of a ripe ear and question if they can fill their silos.Mr.Edward Audinwood ie attending the State Convention of under- \u2018takers being held at Brattleboro, Vt., Tuesday, Wednesday and Thureday of this week.Tuesday the business of the convention was supplemented by a ball game between the Keene, N.H., team and a local line-up.Wednesday afternoon the undertakers vs.traveling men played their annual game.Wednesday pvening Gov.Foss, of Massachusetts spoke.Brattleboro entertained the guests royally.Mr.H.V.Truell, advocate, of Montreal, was a visitor to the Three Villages Friday and Saturday.He was pleased with the evidences of indoe- trial growth at Rook Island, but thought the residente bad something to learn about building.\u2018Being a stranger,\u201d said Mr.Truell, \u201cI do not like to criticise,\u201d but it does seem a pity that the place should be disfigured with such structures as the one in the bank.\u201d He was also opposed to such buildings ae the one on top of the hill, because, in his opinion, tene- lment \u2018blocks\u2019 were unnecessary in the country.He also regretted the outting off of the view at that point which, he thought, had been a great public asset.With all the unoocupled land around the place in every direction Mr.Truell could see no reason for the \u201ccongested\u201d conditions which are being developed in some sectjons.\u201cI bad read in the JOURNAL of a Village Improvement Boclety, and must say that I was not quite prepared for some things I have seen,\u201d were Mr.Truell\u2019s words.The apparent growth of Stan- stead College was a source of satisfaction to Mr.Truell, wbo is a native of Stanstead Connty, and takes a keen interest in ite development and pro- grees.\u2018The Stanstead Journal.WHOLE No.3471.PATRONIZE THE NEW NEWPORT Fl REPROOF GARAGE Every one delighted.Light, Airy, Splendid Service, Fine Location.TELL your friends that Newport now has the BEST GARAGE in Northern Vermont.TRUE & BLANCHARD COMPANY, - Newport, Vt.de je 1-_ ===} [ JE] = Reduce your Bills - ;

change it 18 not oar Intention to disregard the memory of the late Mr.G.R.Caswell, who established the bus- inese 80 many years ago, but in view of the fact that it is the intention of the owner to make all that is poseible of this interest we would suggest that the name of the village be changed by mutual consent to Demick\u2019s Mills.It will antloipate any confusion that is liable to arise in the mails, express, freight or those traveling to this point.The present name was probably established by usage, therefore the ohange could be made without any legal proceedings, simply by circala- ting & petition and all residents subscribing to it, which we believe they should be very glad to do.VERMONT ITEMS.The sum of 85,000 has been voted for necessary repaire and additions on the academy

\u201crejoicing.\u201d There are three things Yor the believer to rejoice in.In the first place, he rejoices \u201cin the hope of glory.\u201d That is, in the hope of seelng God's glory in the face of Jesus Christ when he shall be re vealed again, and the hope of enter ing into that glory and partaking of it as one of the redeemed ones.In the second place, he rejoices \u201cin tribulations also,\u201d because as tbe apostle teaches, the tribulation through which a Christian pasees enlarges his experience of God as his comforter and deliverer.This experience assures him of God's love for him and contributes to the quickening and strengthening of his hope concerning the greater com fort and deliverance that is to come 1 am a millionaire and promige you a hundred thousand dollars at a

eaysa writer In the Wide World Magazine.The word \u201cmalamute\u201d is an Indian word meaning Eskimo, and fa applied to both The malamute 18 of the wolf straln\u2014n fact, the beat of the breed are half wolf.They evince all the characteristics of the woif, both in appearance and in manners.Owing to his wolf-like fur, the malamute can easily stand the extreme Alaskan cold.He is a born fighter, an inveterate thief, and somewhat of a coward, for he will seldom fight singly against a lone adversary.The malamute, while well able to withstand the cold, does \u2018not seem to have the same order of Intelligence as is displayed by the out: side dog, and the best dog for Alaska would seem to be a mixture of the two strains, Another native breed in the north is the huskie, but this breed 18 rarer than common usage of the word would imply.The real huskies are bred in the neighborhood of the Mackenzie river, and are more common in the ter- |ritory under the jurisdiction of the Hudson Bay company than in Alaska.Small dogs, such as fox terriers, are a rarity in Alaska, for in that country a dog is valuable in exact proportion to the amount he can pull A sleigh- dog will welgh anything from 30 to 150 pounds, the average being about 75 pounds.It is surprising to the un- Initiated how big a load a dog can pull, though I must admit I have never seen or heard of a dog tn Alaska pulling 1,000 pounds, under the conditions de- soribed in a wellknown novelist's book; nor have I ever geen or heard of a dog-fight as pictured so vividly in the story in which he graphically describes a fight where two dogs are battling for supremacy in the team, and the remainder of the dogs sit on their haunches and form a ring around the contestants, who, under these conditions, I suppose, would fight it out under Marquis of Queensbury rules 1 question whether such a fight ever ocourred in natural history.If there are two Alaskan dogs fighting, and 40 non-interested dogs in the (neighborhood, the fight will soon involve itself into one dog underneath and 41 dogs on top.The idea of an Alaskan dog calmly sitting on his haunches and coolly viewing the fight 1s too funny for anything; the joke can only be appreciated by those who have seen a bunch of malamutes in a fight.Malne Woods Tragedy.Because some emall boys drank Whit Toothaker's and Han Vining's sap, replacing the contents of the sap buckets with water, Messrs.Toothaker and Vining both express the opinion that this has been a mighty unsatisfactory syrup eeason.With visions of gallons of golden syrup the men tapped their maples and waited pa- Uently for a run of sap.It came as they supposed, and when they gathered the well-filled buckets their eyes glistened in anticipation of the treat in store.Thon came the bofling process.High rose the flames about the pans and Kettles, but still higher rose the iudignation of Messrs.Toothaker and Vining because the \u201csap\u201d refused to turn into syrup.The liquid in the pans gave forth a vast amount of steam, but that was all there was doing.Finally both men gave up in disgust what seemed to be a hopeless task.The next day Whit said to Han, \u201cDid you get any syrup out of the sap you bolled down yesterday?\u201d \u201cNo,\u201d replied Han, \u201cthis has been a mighty poor sap year.\u2019 \u2014Maine Woods.Made the Hen So Nervous.A woman who lives in the

May Easily Be Made as Successful Here as In Holland.Horticulturists visiting Holland bring back tales of how \u201cDutch bulb«\u201d sre grown for the world In the land reciaimed from the Zuyder Zee.The sail 18 sandy, superb in dralnagn and aaturaly poor, but proper handling Has made it a rich one.After reading of the Holland methods, the writer has this year produced tulips that are sno ond to none, some being more than two feet in height and very robust with large flowers.The method of care Is herein given in the hope that soma» who have given up hope may be able to grow these beautiful flowers to a satisfying degrec of excellence.Many other lots have been visited that are very fine, where the care and culture bas been very similar to that followed Dy the writer.The two strong points tn growing good tulipe are deep planting and plenty of water.To provide gond drainage (a aupposed essential) the writer dug out a bed to the depth of 18 foches, mixing the soil with some sand and one-fourth horse manure that contained 8 large per cent of planing- mili ghavings, used for bedding.This wes replaced and trodden down until within six inches of the surface.Then a8 mixture was made of one-half good garden loam, one-fourth sand, and one fourth pulverized sheep manure.The gol wus smoothed on the dottom of the bed, one inch of this special soil placed evenly over the surface, the tulip bulbs placed upon tt and the balance of the special soil placed ou top.After being wetted down it was about six Inches from the surface to bottom of tulip bulbs.A little ridge of earth was placed around the bed so that when given a liberal watering the water could stand two inches deep be {ore soaking down, which latter it did very rapidly.Then three inches of tresh stable manure was placed on top for a mulch and the bed was heavily watered, when no rain fell, twice each week.The tulips so produced were second to none in local gardens.They were all singles, of the Gesueriana type.Those In one bed inspected that.were especlaly fine were placed the sme depth as herein noted, tn almost pure adobe, covered with four inches of! manure and kept well watored.Lack of drainage did not seem to affect them adversely.To sum up, the two chief points are deep planting and heavy watering.LEW YORK SCHOOL GARDENS Even In the Heart of the Crowded Metropolla These Beauty Spots Are to Be Found.School gardens, for some years à fcature of education tn smaller towns, have at last taken root in New York.I\u2019ven in the heart of crowded Manhattan it has been found possible to turn a bit of the school yard Into a ¢:rden and there to let the children row flowers and-yegetables.In some rchools each class has ita plot, ia others there was enough room to previde a plot for each child, but thie, except In the rural outskirts, ia rare.In one scHcol, where it was Impossible to raise plants from tho enrtia a goodly part of the cement- paved playground was given over to boxes which afforded

known that the church wardens of Yatten- den receive every two years from the msyor and burgesses of Reading the sum of 8 shillings under James Po eock's charity.It appears that \"Poeock by his will,

him away no matter whither, and another polire man of another station catches hold of the fellow and throws him out of his area, and eo on, with the consequenns that beggars after wandering from one ward to another and back again ul timately settle down in the regiot of the least resistance, namely, the suburbs.The latest happenings prove that suburbs are fast becoming the centers of mendicity and erlm'nality \u2018The mainichi therefore begs the au thorities \u201cto adopt a positive Insteac of a patchwork policy,\u201d advocating ar exhaustive study of the problem.Another plan is that the teachers o: primary schools be called upon to im press upon the emotional youngsters the utter desploability of begging, sc that the younger generation may con sider beggars as those deserving to be

occasioned.That these were no flesh and blood creatures of those ear- \u201c4 days when fearsome beasts roamed the country is shown by the prevalence of such tales in certain places only, and the fact that no other animal, however, alarming, has inspired such dread.There can be little oubt that where these legends are found in coast districts they preserve the remembrance of past descents of the marsuding Danes in their dragon.ships, and the awful havoc they created.Even now the fear implanted 80 long ago is not absolutely dead, for the reputed stronghold of the dragon (generally the site of an ancient attle) is left severely alone by the children, and even the men will not willingly go near the spot after dark.Where these dragon legends have been found inland they have been traced to the famous dragon standard of Wessex.At Burford, in Oxford, pear which place a terrible battle was fought on Mideummer Eve in 720 A.D.between Wessex and Mercia, a dragon used to be carried about the streets in each anniversary in memory of the event.Many antiquaries are now inclined to think that the belief in fairies or pixies, which still lingers in some out.of-the-way corners of England, is another instance, immeasurably ancient, of folk memory.The \u201clittle le\u201d are, it is thought, those ancient Iver- nian inhabitants of Britain who, physically inferior in stature and war-like characteristios to the invading Gaels, were deiven by them into the fast.Desses of cave and hill and forest.As they lost their fear of their con- Querors they occasionally revisited their old haunte, sometimes to play pranks, sometimee to render substan tial help, according to the reward thay received for their services.There are many tales in the West of the pixies coming regularly to do housework, make bread, or churn while the household slept, providing always that po one attempted to e on them, and that a bowl of the .est and freshest cream was left ous for them.If the cream was ecur or apy attempt was made to catch at their work they hevex visited house again.~ FOR SALE CHEAP 1 Boiler 80 h.p., Leonard make ; 1 Engine 25 .p.Waterous make; 1.88 in.Lefell Water Wheel: 1 Horse 7
