Some grocery clerks here are rather careless in the way they leave their teams while in the house taking orders. Horses are frequently left unhitched and well into the middle of the street, so that teams have difficulty in passing.

Citizen Chapter D. A. R. Organized Members of the N. S.

D. living in Lamoille County have organized themselves into the "Captain Jedediah Hyde" Chapter, with the following Miss R. Louise Slocum: Vice Regent, Mrs. Isabel Fisk; Secretary, Mrs. Jennie Waterman; Treasurer, Mrs.

Mae Terrill Cheney; Registrar, Mrs. Lizzie Fisher; Historian, Mrs. Nellie Grout; Advisory Board, Mrs. Kate Warren Mrs. Augusta Wheeler.

At present there are only twelve members in the new chapter, representing but three towns Johnson and Wolcott. Other ladies in the county who are already members of the society at large or who wish to identify themselves with the order of D. A. are most cordially invited to unite with the Captain Jedediah Hyde Chapter. For the benefit of such persons we wish to say that anyone joining the chapter within six months of its formal organization-Feb.

23, 1914, will be a charter member. Golden Wedding Anniversary Mr. and Mrs. D. W.

Rodgers quietly observed their Golden Wedding Anniversary Sunday, March 8, at their home on Brooklyn street, it being necessary because of the ill health of both Mr. and Mrs. Rodgers to give up their plans for entertaining their friends at that time. Sunday was also Mr. Rodgers 74th birthday anniversary and 120 cards and letters were received by the couple in honor of the two events.

Friends called during the day toextend congratulations and several gifts of gold and other presents were received, among them being a lovely bouquet of carnations from the A. R. and W. R. and a cake, beautifully decorated in lavender and white.

Mr. and Mrs. Rodgers, who were married in Windsor, March 8, 1864, have two children, Fred W. Rodgers of Winchenden, Mass, and Mrs. Mira Rodgers Heath of this place.

A tact which would seem of much interest in connection with the marriage is that Mrs. Rodgers' brother, G. R. Crosby, was also married at the same time, and the two couples, who took their wedding trip together, are all living, as are also a third couple who stood up with them. A Splendid Address Last Sunday evening one of the best of the winter's series of addresses at the Union meeting was given by Hon.

C. W. Gates at the Cong'I church. Mr. Gates told in a very interesting manner the history of road building and sketched the wonderful progress in the United States in the past ten years, contrasting the methods employed in the different states and firmly holding to the opinion that Vermont's method was the best adapted to this state.

He is in favor of building "market roads" rather than "tourist trunk lines" or in other words, he believes in the idea of building roads for the people who reside in Vermont rather than for those just passing through. He also called attention to the fact that the present law puts the whole matter of road building up to the people each year at the annual town meetings, a referendum of the State road system, and the people have responded in such a way that it was possible for the legislation to increase the state aid, proving that the residents of the state are well pleased with the system. Death of Isaiah Blair Isaiah Blair died Friday afternoon at 12:45 o'clock at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Frank Boyce, on Elmore street: Although he had been a sufferer from heart trouble for the past several years, death was due to an attack of acute indigestion from which he was taken ill about 8:15 the Thursday evening previous. The deceased was born in Serale, Jan.

24, 1845, and was married in early life to Miss Edna Noe, who died March 25, 1913. Mr. Blair was a member of Co. 11th Vt. Regiment, having enlisted on Aug.

24, 1864 and was discharged Aug. 25, 1865. He was a member of the local G. R. He is survived by five children, Mrs.

Frank Boyce and Isaiah Frank, Blair, Jr. of this place, Mrs. Edward Caswell and Willie D. Blair of Greenfield, and Lewis Blair of Middlesex. The funeral was held Monday afternoon at 1 o'clock from his late home, Rev.

R. D. Cranmer of the Universalist church officiating, and the remains were placed in the vault and will be interred in Riverside Cemetery in the spring. M. B.

White acted as funeral director. The bearers were his three sons and his son-in-law, Frank Boyce. The flowers were many and beautiful, including a cross of white roses from the grandchildren. Mr. Blair was a long time resident of this town and his courteous greeting made for him many friends, who regret his demise.

The annual meeting of Road Commissioners of Lamoille County will be held Thursday, April 2nd, at Hyde Park.

At the Cemetery Association meeting Tuesday afternoon the ladies voted to purchase an iron fence. This will be a great improvement to the appearance of our village burial grounds. The old board of officers was re-eiected.

Hyde Park made a mistake in not voting a thousand dollars for permanent roads. We cannot afford to be behind several other towns in thiscounty, which did that. Better have a speciai town meeting and "get right in this direction. Noyes Wood is the oldest merchant in town--taking into consideration continuous years--he having come to this place March 13, 1885, making 29 years. Wm.

Maxfield has been a resident here 58 years and during that time has been in business "on and off" a good share of the time. When F. E. Firkey, the liveryman, was driving into Morrisville last Friday afternoon, in making the turn by Elmer Smalley's, the sleigh slewed striking a telephone pole. Mr.

W. R. Hamlin's topics for Sunday evening worship during the Lenten season are as follows March 15, "What Is a Christian?" March 22, Why Does a Christian Need God March 29, "Why Do We Need a Church April 5, "To What Extent Should My Faults, or My Neighbor's Faults Keep Me From Church Worship?" April 12, "How Can We Convince Men of the Supreme Worth of Character?" A cordial invitation is extended to all to attend these services. The fifth number in the Lecture Course was given last Saturday night and was an entertainment by the Russell Novelty Company. It proved to be the best in the course.

Mr. Russell is a musical wonder and the manner in which he handled the many musical novelty instruments delighted his audience. Miss Bornholt as a reader and baritone soloist was also fine; her statuesque posing was unique and beautiful. Altogether it was a splendid entertainment and should "The Russells" come this way again a full house will be theirs.
