F. C. Parker of Hinesburg and Mrs. F. D.

Falby of Huntington. Mr. Collins was a native of Monkton and born in September, 1835. He was a pleasant, agreeable man and will be missed from the community in which he had eo long resided. The funeral will be held tomorrow.

Willis A. Ferguson met with a serious accident Tuesday evening, resulting in the breaking of one of his legs in two places. He was papering in F. H. Palmer's house over a stairway and the staging gave way.

He fell and struck in a way to break his leg and landed finally at the bottom of the stairs. He was attended by Drs. Edmunds and Norton and taken to his home. He is as comfortable as could be expected. The accident was an unfortunate one as it came at a season when painters and paper hangers are very busy and his enforced idleness for several weeks will be a heavy loss to him.

The suggestion that a three-tovn base ball leauge be formed in this county has not yet met with a response from Middlebury. Is it possible that county seat is short of sufficient talent?

John James Lindman, who is the fiancee of Mrs. Ives' son, Harold Moor Ives. The wedding of the young people will not take place. however until fall, The table at which the young people sat was most elaborately decorated, significant in every way of the approaching wedding. Over the center of the table was suspended a large wedding bell of Easter lilies from which fell streamers of narrow white ribbon, strung with tiny gold bells, which reached to every plate, where there were hand-painted place cards with unique quotations.

The table decorations were lilies of the valley and white sweet peas. Each guest was pre sented with a dainty hand-painted after-dinner coffee cup as a souvenir, also a small golden slipper filled with puffed rice. The house throughout was trimmed in spring flowers." Mrs. Ives formerly resided in Bristol and has many friends here. Ice cream will be served Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons and evenings at Johnson's restaurant.

Many have joined the silent throng on the other shore, and this year the survivors will find more graves to decorate than ever before. Soon the day will come when there will be no old veterans left to observe the day.

But the day will not pass away with the passing of the old veterans. The memories connected with it are of a nature that cannot bo forgotten, and in many places citizens are joining with the old veterans in making ar rangements for observing Memorial day This indicates a desire on the part of the citizens to relieve the old veterans of the cares and responsibilities connected with the work of preparing for the day. Such a spirit is commendable and the people of Bristol would do well to exhibit a little of the same. Lend a hand. The "old boys" will appreciate it.

They helped to perpetuate the Union in the dark days of 1861-65 and we should recognize that fact by rendering them a little assistance in preparing for the observance of Memorial day.

The Burlington News and Rutland News hold that the improving of water and fire departments will not bring a reduction in insurance rates. It might not in Burlington or Hutlaud, lut we believe it will in Bristol. However no town can afford to get along without a first class water system or tire department.

Bristol has the former and within a year will have both. The state board of health has notified the authorities in Enrlington, Vergennes. St. Johnsbury, Svvanton and Ensbnrgh Falls that unless the public water sup-' plies in those places are not improved by June 1, 1908, the board will take action according to law. This is a radical step, but a sensible one.

Bristol is especially fortunate in the quality of the water furnished for public use, at present and the water to be taken from Lincoln is also a pure article. Bristol has voted to install a gravity-water system. There's a village that has been making steady progress toward better things for several years past, is thriving, progressive, ambitious, and a credit to the "New Vermont" St. Albans Messenger. The abovcsUows whatoutsiders think of Bristol.

Fellow citizens, in voting to put in a new water system we took a long stride furward in the march of progress. Let us "make gooi" in every movement of this character so that we may always deserve the good things said about 'our prospsrous and enterprising t'wn. NtWS NOTES.
