Town MEETING ORATOR. 
(Before) 
In Town meeting will I walk, 
Give them straight from shoulder talk, 
Of the money that is being thrown 
away. 
Then they'll fix it all up right, 
Or I’}l start an awful fight, | 
For the money that is being thrown 
away. 
(And after) 
In Town Meeting did I walk 
Sprung an awful line of talk 
Of the money that was being thrown 
away ; 
Did they fix it-—not a bit. 
Though I threw anawful fit, , 
They just “ha-ha’d” and then threw 
it right away.

The son of a Manchester physician, 
a high school student, propounded a 
poser for his father and a high school 
teacher the other day. The lad unbe- 
known to is father had stayed away 
from school during a recent snow- 
storm and put in a forenoon shovel- 
ing sidewalks. When confronted 
with his. guilt in absenting himself 
from school without excuse he de- 
clared, “Miss B , you'll have to 
convince me first that a day in school 
is worth $2.40.”’ It set them thinking.

Recently Chief Sullivan of the 
Manchester police department was 
talking with a local physician and a 
Manchester minister. A bystander 
attracted their attention by his sud- 
den laughter. Asked what amused 
him he said he was struck by the co- 
incidence that one of the group pre-

other for Heaven and the third, the |

One of the rarest joys of ore away 
from home is when he can cnce more 
set foot on native soil. An ncident 
of this sort was experienced by a 
Manchester ycung man last week 
when Chas. A. Lodge, Jr., wro has 
been in Albe.ta, northwestern Canada 
the last two or three years ‘n the gov- 
ernment employ, cro sed the Lorder 
and spent the night in Montana. Mr. 
Lodge is connected with the Canadian 
agric..ltuial departm nt, which is do- 
ing wonders in the developme..t of 
that vast northwe tern country, said 
to be more fertile for wheat rai::ng 
than many sections of our own wheat- 
growing do ain. Mr. Lcedg> and 
arother y.ung man, also a ; raduate 
of the Mass. Agricultuzal College, 
conduct a ranch of their own, to 
which they give their entire time 
when not engaged in the government 
work. Just now, however, the gov- 
ernment experts are busy getting 
ready for sp ing planting, and in his 
travels amcng the rural .0. munities 
Mr. Lodge drew near the b undary 
line. It was then that the fever struck 
him and after a great deal of travel- 
ing, mostly by horseback, he crossed 
the bord2r to Sweet Grass, Montana, 
and spent the night on American soil.
