The Secretary of the Red Cross will be at their room on Tuesday, September 3rd, to receive all renewals for membership, and to renew the membership fees of the few who are in arrears. Please bear this in mind. Surgical Dressing allotment of material for 250 First line packets has arrived. Will members of Tuesday, Thursday and Friday classes assemble that the work may be completed in the required time. The August allotment is here ready for all patriotic ladies who wish to continue their good work, also any and all those who have not heretofore contributed their services.

If new ones would come in it would relieve those who have worked so faithfully in the past month. The allotment contains general sewing of the same class as the July quota also a consignment of Front Line Packetts. A limited quantity of wool for socks still remains for those anxious to knit. It can be obtained on Sunday afternoon at room 11, Fed. Big.

Parks Cadman of the Brooklyn Cong'l church, who lectured on the condition of the war, last Saturday afternoon. It is doubtful if a more forceful and impressive speaker ever stood upon a platform to address an sudience in this city. Intellectually powerful, convincingly impressive, clear ennunciation and a strong voice, he took the audience by storm and held them to the end.

The Chautauqua has been more than a success. Not only financially but intellectually as well. In no other way can the highest and best talent of the land be centered into our midst. It is a treat we all are enjoying more and more not only in the city but the circle to enjoy it is widening on the outside. So great was the appreciation of the present course that it won the acclaim of the whole large audience in the tent when Mr.

Aiken put the question about a course for another year. With, no effort the names in support cf one went far over the mark. We need these intellectual treats, not only in times of peace, but in time of war as well. They bring to us rest, and recreation, and nobler thoughts, and are an educational and social benefit as well. Then the feeling of good will between the home committee and committees of the Chautauqua; Mr.

O'Brion informed your reporter that the Newport Chautauqua was one of the most pleasing in his whole circuit, and that the audiences were of a class that seemed to, appreciate the talent for its merit, as well as for the pleasurable side of it.

The apportionment of coal to Newport for the present coal year by the Government is 7,350 net tons based on the 1916 distribution. The amount of coal received in Newport last year was 9,679 net tons or 2,379 net tons more than we will receive this year. It can readily be noted from the above figures that it is very necessary that all persons conserve in so far as possible. Our dealers say that only two-thirds of each order over and above six tons can be filled and probably not all of these so it is the duty of each family to obtain a Eupply of wood to meet the emergencies next winter; and the Government urge that wood be substituted when possible; and the Government also urge that while each large residence should be kept sufficiently warm to keep pipes from freezing, still only a minimum number of rooms should be used by and kept comfortable for the family. This recommendation is confidently made as.it is believed by the Government authorities that no bouse should consume more than twenty-five tons of anthracite coal of domestic sizes and that no Considerate citizen will under present conditions burn coal for the heating of unneeded rooms.

Frank D. Flint, Newport Fuel Committee. 34-2t. Women's Campaign for 4th Liberty Bond Started. A big feature of the Woman's campaign in the fourth Liberty Loan is to be the use of a tithing box into which may be placed small or large amounts.

The minimum to be accomplished is to be the amount of a first payment on a Liberty bond and it is expected that by the time that has been done the saving habit will have become so well fixed that the subsequent payments will be met promptly. Mrs. Edward C. Smith of St. Albans, chairman of the woman's campaign, has already distributed many of the boxes throughout Vermont, the work being done through the medium of the fourteen county chairmen.

The boxes, which are of pasteboard, in red, white and blue, are shipped flat and when once put together cannot be taken apart without tearing them to pieces. On the front are the words: "Fourth Liberty Bond; Save that nickel for Your Bond, and a picture of the Statue of Liberty. On the reverse is a picture of Priscilla and her spinning wheel and the words: "Woman's Liberty Loan Committee of New England." Around the top on all four sides are appropriate lines and legends, all calculated to stimulate interest and pride in saving for the bond. On one side are the lines: "First a nickel, then a dime; Save the pennies every time; First you know 'twill be a dollar, Help us make the Kaiser holler! Save that nickel for your bond." Vermont women, who made such an enviable record in the third Liberty Loan campaign, are organizing for even more effective work in the coming drive, "The Fighting Fourth," which will be railed in September. Under the general direction of Mrs.

Myra B. Lord of Boston, publicity director for the Wo man's Liberty Conn Commi ti of New England, there will be conducted in Vtnrii nt a publicity campaign which will rtach the remotest section of the aie. Ii i tinned to place a tithing in v. ry h. rm hp-I into it the women uixi ibi.drtn are to dr'por-it their A man beloved of all has ended his earthly pilgrimage and we mourn.

A man of high ideals, a character of lofty purpose, an energy of limitless measure, an ability of marked degree, a philanthropy unassuming and secretive, a public spirit of never ending devotion to the best welfare and highest interests of state and nation, a patriotism flaming with love of country and devotion to its ideals, have ceased their activities, and the man who possessed all these excellent qualities has passed to the great reward of his life's work, leaving us to profit by the example he has set befoie us. He had climbed round after round the ladder that leads to prominence in the business, social and political world, and the honors and prosperity that so deservedly came to him were ever gracefully and modestly borne. Essentially a business man connected, throughout his life, with large lumber interests, developing a notable ability for organization and management, strictly devoting at all times this abili ty, coupled with his enormous energy, to the development of business interests committed to bis care, he yet found time to accept positions of public trust in his town, county and state in which he always gave an excellent account of himself and rendered a service of such high character as to bring honor upon himself and his constituency. As representative in the lower branch of the Vermont legislature, as state senator, as lieutenant governor and presiding officer over the upper branch of the legislature, as governor of our beloved state, and as delegate to tne republican national convention he quitted himself with credit. As member of the lumber concerns of Prouty Miller and the Jackman Lumber Company, as director ot the Bostan Maine Railroad, the New England Telephone and Telegraph Company and other large corporations, he won for himself a reputation of high standing in the business world.

In the community where he wa3 born and brought up and where he lived his busy life, he was kindly, friendly and full ot good cheer, ever striving for the tterment of social and economic cor dUions, optimistic and loyal. A mend in need bad but to apply and bounty was forthcoming, rle ever kept a lively terest in church and local affairs, and no one knows how we shall miss him. In bis home and family he was loving, kind and considerate, especially bound up in the happiness derived from pleas' ant home surroundings, and deeply re- gretting that business affairs bad kept him away from this home so much of the time for the past two or three years. His worthy helpmate, alone in her sor row, but with loving memories for con solation, has the deepest sympathy ot a host of friends in her affliction. Our sympathy also goes out in full measure to the three brothers ana one sister.

The accident on the morning of Aug ust 19th, already heralded in public print, when the automobile, in which the subject 01 tms sKetcn was naing, was run into bv a railway tram at Wat- erville, closed the last chapter of a usetul and purposetul lite, and removed from our midst our friend, companion and neighbor, George Herbert Prouty. We shall miss his genial smile, his. constant good nature, his hearty hand clasp, hia ever ready good counsel, his keen and kindly interest in the affairs of all, both high and low, his neighborliness, and his democracy. Truly can it be said that he delighted to "sit by the side of the road and be a friend to man." The funeral service at the Congregational church, where be attended divine worship with regularity so long as his business matters permitted him to be at home on the Sabbath and where he had for years assisted in the service by conducting the music, was attended by a "large number of sorrowing friends which taxed the capacity of the auditorium and attested the love and high regard in which he was universally held. This service was simple, unostentatious and dignified as befitted the character of our friend, and as he would have wished it to be.

Rev. John M. Thomas, president of Middlebury College, a near and dear friend of the deceased, conducted the service and spoke feelingly and fittingly of the life, the work and the character of the departed. He was assisted by Rev. L.

A. Edwards, pastor of the church. A musical selection, "Nearer My God to Thee," was beauti fully rendered by Lieutenant Perry Richards, formerly of the Bologna and Turin Opera House in Italy, singer at the Royal Swedish Court and lieutenant of the Royal Swedish 8th Infantry. A marvelously beautiful display of flowers, so dearly loved by our friend, was tastily banked about the casket and upon the platform, bringing in their sweetness and gentleness the message of love and sympathy to the afflicted family and friends. Previous to the service in the church there was held a private service in the home, where, for many years, the altars of happiness and contentment had burned so brightly and where our friend bad ever found rest and peace.

This service was attended only by the family and a few of the more intimate friends, those who had been permitted, while our friend lived, to come into a little closer relation with him, to see a little more clearly the true character of the man, and to feel a little more intimately the handclasp of his unbounded friendship. Here Rev. L. A. Edwards, his pastor, paid charming tribute in a simple and impressive manner, to the cordial and happy relations he had ever had with the departed, and to the high character, integrity, ruggedness, and lofty ideals he had always observed in his friend.

We laid him to rest; tenderly and with love welling from the depths of our saddened hearts, in the West Derby Cemetery, wherein lie the father and mother whom he honored. The spot of his burial is picturesque and beautiful, overlooking the City of Newport, the home he loved, and the scene of his life's activities, and as his disembodied spirit hovers over this scene let us be ever mindful of the memory of a good man and profit by bis example. savings from household and personal expenses, the latter furnishing a wide range in the elimination of little luxuries. This self denial fund will give a substantial start toward the purchase of many a bond. "Save for Liberty" is the slogan adopted.

Prouty, Edgar J. Prouty and Willard R. Prouty, and Dr. F. M.

Palmer, a brother-in-law. And so has ended in the crash of fatal accident a life devoted to the best of everything that came within its manifold activities. Love, respect, esteem and honor were Gov. Prouty's in large measure, and yet bis inherent characteristics were simplicity and humility, like the sentiment so beautifully expressed in the verses admired by the martyred Lincoln: "Oh, why should the spirit of mortal be proud? Like a swift-fleeing meteor, a fast-flying cloud. I A flash of the lightning, a break of the wave, He passes from life to his rest in the grave.

The leaves of the, oak and the willow shall fade; Be scattered around and together be laid; As the young and the old, and the low and the high. Shall moulder to dust and together shall lie. 'Tis the wink of the eye, 'tis the draft of a breath From the blossom of health to the paleness of death, From the gilded salon to the bier and shroud Oh, why should the spirit of mortal be proud?" A. H. Grout.

2 all like a knell. Even the Boston Opera Singers, who witnessed the large funeral procession pass by, suffered this depression, and knowing the feelings of their listeners, carried out their program with a reluctance no one could understand better than themselves. Indeed, entertainers are more sensitive to conditions that tend to mar, than is the audience in front. But the audience was with them heart and soul. Thanks are extended to Allesandro Alberini, of this company, who so pleasingly rendered the baratone solo, "Nearer My God to Thee," at the funeral.

It would be hard to pick out any one entertainment of the week and say it was the best. All being of a high order, the one was the best which appealed nearest to the heart of the listener.
