Flagger succumbs after accident From Staff & News Reports EAGLE & VERMONT STATE POLICE

GROUNDBREAKING FOR SALISBURY GAS PLANT
RNG to feed college campus. By Lou Varricchio EDITOR
On Aug. 23, at approximately 8:13 a.m., troopers from the Vermont State Police were detailed to the area of U.S. Routes 7 and state Route 17 for a traffic crash involving a traffic flagger. Upon arrival, troopers learned that James P. Alger, 38, an employee of the LPD Traffic Control Services had been struck by a northbound vehicle operated by Jennifer L. Bergevin, 49, of Middlebury. A preliminary investigation indicated that Alger was performing his duties as a flagger in the railroad crossing construction zone at New Haven Junction. Bergevin was traveling northbound at a legal rate of approximately 30 miles per hour, the posted speed limit of the construction zone. Bergevin then struck Alger. Alger was stabilized at the scene by first responders from Vergennes Area Rescue Services and Middlebury Regional Emergency Services. Due to his serious injuries, Alger was transported to UVM Porter Hospital via ambulance then to UVM Medical Center by Dartmouth-DART Helicopter. He succumbed to his injuries and died during the overnight hours while at the hospital. As part of the investigation, Bergevin was transported to the VSP Barracks in New Haven for processing. This crash remains under investigation. ■
SALISBURY | After two years in the planning stage, construction work began on Aug. 20 on the Vanguard Rewewables RNG (renewable natural gas) production plant at the 2,400-acre Goodrich farm in Salisbury. The plant will provide Middlebury College in meeting its goal of reducing fossil-based fuels for campus power. Officials from the college, Vanguard, and the Goodrich family were involved in kicking off the construction project. Called a “digester” the operation will produce 180,000 Mcf per year (1 Mcf equals 1,000 cubic feet of RNG).
“One of the key components of Middlebury’s Energy 2028 plan is to shift the college completely to the use of renewable energy.”

Bray resigns as New Haven J.P. Resignation comes after complaints by ex-selectman, BOCA By Lou Varricchio EDITOR

NEW HAVEN | Vermont State Sen. Christopher Bray (D) of Addison County resigned as a justice of the peace in New Haven after a former town selectman, and the town’s Board of Civil Authority, made complaints about his place of residency. Former selectboard member Doug Tolles of New Haven
said that Bray had changed his town of residence while still holding on to the elected J.P. position in New Haven. Bray resigned as a New Haven J.P. and informed New Haven town officials on Aug. 20 “In the last decade it has been a great pleasure and honor to serve as a Justice of the Peace in the town of New Haven. In July, we sold our home on South Street, and for a number of weeks it was still uncertain where our next home would be—as we were looking in New Haven as well as outside of town,” Bray wrote in his resignation letter posted on Town Forum. “We have now resettled in Bristol, and therefore, I can no longer serve out my term as a New Haven Justice of the Peace. Please accept this email as my formal letter of resignation from this position. Again, it has been and honor and pleasure to serve in this capacity, and I will miss seeing my former neighbors on a daily basis. See BRAY RESIGNS » pg. 3

Homeward Bound Addison County's Humane Society
Losing a pet is a very emotional thing. It’s really important that all animals have identification so they can be returned to their owners. An I.D. tag on your pet’s collar is the easiest method. The tag should include your name, address, telephone number and the pet’s name. If there’s extra space, the phone number of the veterinarian is also a good idea. If you move, make sure you get a new tag for your animal with your new contact information. Pets can also be microchipped. M an y humane s o cie t ie s and veter inar ians have a scanner which identifies if an animal has a microchip. If there’s a microchip, a phone call is made to identif y the owner. Either way, please take a moment and check that your favorite pet has identification so you can get him back safe and sound in a hurry. If you have any questions, please call the Rutland County Humane Society at 802-483-6700.

BRUTE is an
affectionate, quiet and mellow pup who needs a home that will love him the way he loves t hem. Br ute’s last home didn’t have time for him and, as a result of his last home environment, he became accustomed to keeping to himself when he could tell he wasn’t wanted around. Since arriving at the shelter, we have really seen this little guy perk up! He seeks touch and attention, car rides, snuggles of all kinds and a real desire to develop that human-dog bond. Brute enjoys spending time with other dog-social dogs, is cat-friendly (will chase to play, not to harm) and getting out and about. Brute would do best in an ultra-nurturing and calm home. Brute is great with kids, but doesn’t like fast movements near his face; he would do wonderfully with a child who understands this little guy has been through a lot and slow movements make him feel safer. If you have room in your home and your heart for Brute, don’t make him spend one more day without his forever family. ■

What the heck is slime mold? By Ann Hazelrigg
U VM EXTENSION WRITER
Have you ever noticed something bright yellow or orange on your bark mulch after a rain? You may notice that this blob actually has moved across the mulch over the course of a few days. This is a unique organism called a slime mold. Slime molds are no longer classified as fungi, but instead as a member of the Kingdom Protista (Protoctista). Slime molds are not harmful to adults or animals, and you can break them up with a rake if desired. There are hundreds of different slime molds with a range of colors and forms, but the bright yellow one we see after rainy weather is in a group called the ‘plasmodial’ slime molds. This blob or plasmodium, often mistaken for dog vomit, consists of
one giant cell that can actually move across the mulch, albeit very slowly. As it moves, it ingests bacteria and fungi, growing up to a foot or more in diameter. If the weather stays favorable and there is plenty to ingest, the slime mold will produce a reproductive structure that is stalked and filled with spores. As it breaks apart and dries, the spores are released. The thick-walled spores are resistant to adverse conditions and can remain dormant for several years. Once the environmental conditions are just right, the spores germinate and produce a new slime mold. Another major group of slime molds is the ‘cellular’ slime molds. These are singlecelled organisms, each with its own nucleus. The cells move through the environment at about one millimeter per hour, ingesting food as they go. When conditions are favorable, these cells aggregate and form
Bright yellow slime molds in a Bridport garden, which are not harmful to adults or animals, often appear on bark mulch in beds after rainstorms. Photo by Joelle Kraft a ‘pseudoplasmodium’ or fake plasmodium. Scientists have figured out that the individual slime cells release a complex system of chemical trails, and aggregation occurs as a result of each cell detecting these chemical signals. Research has shown slime molds can figure out mazes due to these chemical trails.
This resulted in the living slime mold following the shortest most efficient path to the food. The researchers also found these slime mold pathways mimicked the same routes the Japanese railway system used to design the most efficient route between cities. ■
Vermont author launches new novel By Jane Murphy BOOKLIST
A new Vermont-based Joe Gunther mystery debuts in September: Author Archer Mayor. Photo provided
Award-winning Vermont author Archer Mayor’s new mystery novel, “Bomber’s Moon”, debuts next week. When we first met Mayor’s creation Joe Gunther (“Open Season”, 1988), he was a police lieutenant in small-town Vermont. Twenty-nine books later, still going strong, he is now the statewide field commander of the Vermont Bureau of Investigation and one of the longest-serving and most respected cops in the state. Vermont, known for its activism and raw beauty, has a largely hardscrabble economy, with the “scourge of easy drug money always lurking like cancer.” The murder of a small-time drug dealer seems to be open and shut at first, but it subsequently explodes into one of
Gunther’s most complex cases, involving a prestigious prep school and an assortment of engaging characters, including two clever thieves, one aptly named Alex B. Robbin. Thorndike Academy may be protected by wealthy benefactors, but the Vermont Bureau of Investigation team, with an assist from young P.I. Rachel Reiling and budding journalist Sally Kravitz, eventually coaxes the skeletons out of their closets. When Gunther is ready to retire, Kravitz and Reiling could well continue this series on their own. Another crackerjack police procedural from Mayor, this one is rich in chilling scenery and precise technical details. Despite its necessary economies, Vermont takes law enforcement seriously, and fans will appreciate the introduction of FARO (3D Measurement, Imaging & Realization Technology) into a mix of technological tools, which, together with Gunther’s crime-solving prowess, make for an absorbing read. ■

The college will purchase 100,000 Mcf from Vanguard, with Vermont Gas purchasing 40,000 Mcf. Vanguard will retain 40,000 Mcf. “One of the key components of Middlebury’s Energy 2028 plan is to shift the college completely to the use of renewable energy,” said David Provost, Middlebury’s executive vice president for finance and administration. “The digester is fundamental to this change.” According to college officials, the RNG facility will generate approximately 50 percent of campus heating and cooling. “The college’s biomass plant will continue to produce the other 50 percent. Both sources provide some of the college’s electricity,” according to a college news statement. Aside from Goodrich cows, regional food manufacturers will add food waste to the mix to create methane RNG methane. As officials cut the ribbon for the Vanguard facility, Vermont Gas is constructing a five-mile-long PVC pipeline connecting the Salisbury farm’s gas to the Addison County pipeline. “We... want to express our thanks to our wonderful partners,” said Chase Goodrich, “as well as countless others who helped us accomplish this goal.” Vanguard currently owns and operates five other digesters that are all located in Massachusetts. The facility at the Goodrich Farm will be the company’s first in Vermont. “The project is an exciting development in Vermont’s dairy industry and the Goodrich family deserve credit for their leadership,” said Vermont Secretary of Agriculture Anson Tebbetts. “We hope a project like this sparks more innovative partnerships that include other Vermont farms.” ■

Summer warning: algae blooms From the editor Hot summer days make most of us want to get out and enjoy nature, often bringing along our dogs, and it is important to be aware of algae blooms and the potential life- threatening consequences of human and animal contact with them. Algae are tiny plant-like organisms that are found in all types of water. They are essential to the earth because, like plants, they produce oxygen we need to survive. They are found worldwide, from ponds, lakes, and streams in Vermont to the hot springs of Yellowstone to oceans and even under the ice caps in sea water. How lethal are algae blooms? Every year humans, fish, aquatic animals, wildlife, and dogs die from ingestion of the toxins.
Death can occur within a few minutes or days. We can be infected when we swim, kayak, fish, or wade through a blue green algae bloom. Serious illness can also occur as a result of inhalation or contact with skin. Thirsty livestock or dogs swimming through the bloom can die within minutes. If you see an algal bloom, stay out of the water and keep your pets out of the water. There is no way to tell if a bloom is toxic or not just by looking at, so if in doubt do not take the chance and avoid it. If your pet (or you) do go in to water that has a bloom, wash yourself and your pets off immediately with tap/fresh water. Don’t let your pets lick off their fur. If you think your pet is sick because of an algal bloom, consult your veterinarian immediately. Symptoms, if not immediately fatal, can include low energy, loss of appetite, vomiting, stumbling and falling, foaming, seizures, or in general any unexplained sickness that occurs within a day or

Guest viewpoint
Medicare for Bernie By Jane. M. Orient, M.D. GUEST COLUMNIST
Bernie Sanders is strongly promoting “Medicare for All,” and claims to be its father (“I wrote the damn bill,” he proclaimed to the nation during the second round of Democratic presidential debates). His plan does not look like Medicare at all. It appears that he hardly knows anything about Medicare. He probably has no experience with it. Despite his advanced age, he does not need to depend on it. Members of Congress are allowed to receive Medicare benefits, but unlike most other Americans, they can receive other benefits in addition. Sitting members of Congress can get routine examinations and consultations from the attending physician in the U.S. Capitol for an annual fee. And military treatment facilities in the Washington area offer free emergency medical and dental care for outpatient services. Members are also eligible for the Federal Employees Health Insurance Program, and they won’t be kicked off as soon as they reach Medicare age. They do have to go through an ObamaCare exchange, but it is a small one, the D.C. Health Link, which reportedly functions well. There are 57 gold-tier plans
so after being in contact with contaminated water. Signs in humans depend on the amount and kind of exposure but can include: skin, eye, nose, or throat irritation, abdominal pain, headache, neurological symptoms, vomiting, or diarrhea. Some can suffer liver and kidney damage from the toxins. The symptoms may occur within hours of exposure and may last a few days. If you experience symptoms after being in contact with an algal bloom, call your physician. When it comes to algal blooms, it is best to take the advice of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: “When in doubt, it’s best to keep out!” For a map of current conditions around the state, check out: health.vermont.gov.

to choose from, not one or two as in many states. Their portion of the premiums could be as little as 25 percent of the total premiums. Apparently, subsidies for senators don’t run out just because their salary exceeds 400 percent of the federal poverty level. Funding for Medicare for All will apparently be vacuumed up from all other sources of payment for “healthcare,” and will go into the big collective pot. Then people can get everything without premiums, copays, or deductibles—so they say. This is not at all like Medicare. Medicare Part A, for hospital care, is funded through the Medicare payroll tax: a 2.9 percent first-dollar tax—no deductions– on all employment income, half of which is paid by the employer. Seniors believe that they have been funding this through their working years, as they are constantly told. They have indeed paid, but their taxes were immediately used to pay for the care of older retirees. So, their hospital bill today will be paid from the wages of about 2.5 workers (say the persons pumping their gas, collecting their trash, and repairing their plumbing). Already that is not enough, so the IOUs in the “trust fund” are being redeemed from general tax revenues. That fund will soon be gone, according to the Medicare
tr ustees, as Baby Boomers are flooding into the system. It would vanish in a nanosecond if we loaded in everybody, with or without illegal immigrants. Medicare has long been implementing ways to curb runaway expenditures. From the mid 1980s comes the Prospective Payment System, or Diagnosis Related Groups (DRGs), under which payment has nothing to do with services rendered to a particular patient. According to my 1985 “Ode to DRG Creep”: “Now the pay’s by the head, if alive or if dead, Diagnosis determines the money… We need costs less than average, and discharges quicker We will get no advantage — for care of the sicker.” Since “quicker and sicker” discharges might cause a need for readmission, the government penalizes hospitals for readmission. One way to prevent readmission is to discharge to hospice or directly to the morgue. If Bernie were an anonymous Medicare patient, he’d get a consultation on POLST. That’s Physicians Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment, which translates in the Newspeak Dictionary to “Legally Enforceable Orders to Terminate Life-Sustaining Treatment Including Food and Water.” Bernie might think he had been admitted—say he had an IV in a hospital room. But if he gets
discharged before his second midnight, he might be classified as an outpatient, which is covered under Medicare Part B, and get a “surprise” bill for thousands of dollars, because of the “TwoMidnight Rule.” Or Bernie might expect to have a little rehab after an orthopedic procedure, but if he is in hospital for fewer than three midnights, rehab isn’t covered. He might have the choice of paying out of pocket, or going home where he will be alone, unable to get out of bed. Yes, Bernie on Medicare will have free choice of doctors—except for the ones who aren’t accepting Medicare patients. If Bernie himself were stuck on Medicare with no way out, he might think it not so wonderful. Has anyone heard him tell people about these Medicare problems? Maybe he means the Canadian medicare system. It does have a way out for non-senators— called the United States. ■ Editor’s note: Jane M.

The panic button at midnight
The Vermont Eagle | August 31, 2019 • 5
Vermont ramblings
By Tom Pinsonneault GUEST COLUMNIST
The toilet is about to overflow and we have company. My response is to hit the proverbial “panic button”. What else can I do? Ever find yourself in a busy shopping mall looking in the clothing department, and suddenly discovering the three children you brought with you have disappeared and will not answer your calls? Panic button. What will happen if the sales clerk learns you have “misplaced” your children. Panic button, again. Our lives seem to be complicated with stressful situations. Usually, these experiences come unannounced which, adds to the anxiety of the situation. I like to say that living in rural Addison County, on a dirt road that’s one mile from the center of Orwell village, people in my situation experience many opportunities to push the proverbial panic button. I won’t mention waking to a noise outside my bedroom window, and upon investigation, witnessing a flock of wild turkey which decided to take residence along the roof-line of my garage. Push the panic button. Mother Nature can be mean-spirited. Big surprises come in small packages and in the next case, the small package turns
out to be a porcupine. Mr. Porcupine made his appearance at my Orwell house in late summer of last year. He operated under the cover of darkness, around midnight. The first night of his appearance he gave himself away with his gnawing and chewing noises which woke me up. I lay in bed and listened from my bedroom window. I quietly left my bed and stumbled to the screened window to see a shadowy figure at the corner of my garage. The critter was chewing my garage. Panic button time. Screaming and hollering at this creature led me to believe that he was deaf or chewing so intently on my poor garage that it couldn’t hear me! I used my flood light to spook him and that seemed to work. But he liked my garage and began a series of midnight raids for his, yes, midnight snack. Nothing seemed to deter him in spite of the ruckus I raised, and to add insult to injury, he would look in my direction and take one last chomp before waddling away. Probably showing off for his girlfriend, as it was rutting season. Imploring a local game warden for advice, he replied , ”shoot ‘em.” So, I located my 22 cal. rifle (which hadn’t been fired in years) and some ammo. I felt ready to ambush the critter. I began keeping my gun, boots, shirt and pants with the flood light next to my bed. My wife Sharon’s job was to hold the light while I shoot. All of these thoughts were running
through my mind when a sof t, but urgent, voice whispered:”Tom, where are your clothes?” I paused, regaining my senses a n d l o o ke d d o w n . Only boots and a gun in hand. I needed to focus. ”Don’t panic” became my mantra. “Shine the light on him, Sharon!” I hollered. By this time Mr. Porcupine was aware of our presence and began waddling away. I pulled off a couple rounds and realized I was tr ying to hit a moving target at midnight, using a peep sight. Apparently, Mr. Porcupine took offense. Panic button, again. Now what? “Watch out, Sharon,” Photo by Mary Harrsch Mr. Porcupine. I yelled. “He is coming for kitchen, us.” I got off more rounds, and chilled by the whole affair, we headed looking over the peep sight. You know how off to finish our night’s sleep. Ah, if only that ended. We ran back to the stairs leading Mother Nature had a camera: no animal, to the deck. It wasn’t an orderly retreat. The large or small, would be afraid to try and thought of getting “quilled” by a porcupine encourage me to push the panic button. ■ at midnight was not a pleasant thought. We made our escape and Mr. Porcupine Editor’s note: Writer Tom Pinsonneault lives in Orwell. waddled off into history. Safely in our

DUI checkpoint planned
MONKTON | On Aug. 22, at approximately 8 a.m., Vermont State Police troopers from the VSP New Haven Barracks assisted the Shelburne Police Department with a vehicle pursuit after the vehicle was reportedly driving erratically after driving through several fields near the Charlotte Berry Farm. Shelburne Police located the vehicle on U.S. Route 7 and attempted to stop it. The accused, Brandon Yandow, 22, of Middlebury, led the Shelburne Police on a short pursuit before stopping the vehicle on a dead-end road. Yandow fled into the woods and hid; he then surrendered to Shelburne Police officers. An investigation revealed the vehicle used in the pursuit was stolen from a residence located in the town of Monkton. Yandow was lodged at the Chittenden County Correctional Center on a warrant for escape. ■

Former St. Mary’s pastor named as abuser Vermont bishop releases names By Lou Varricchio EDITOR
MIDDLEBURY | The Vermont Roman Catholic Diocese released the names of ordained priests “credibly accused” of sexual abuse last week. The release of names, which left nothing in the shadows, took many church members by surprise, according to multiple news reports. Vermont Bishop Christopher J. Coyne
appointed an independent citizen panel to comb through church personnel files to list priests with “credible allegations” against them; however, it should be stated that many of the incidents are alleged with only the victim’s account as “evidence” against an individual. Coyne, who took over the Diocese of Burlington in 2015, decided in 2018 to join other U.S. Catholic dioceses to release the names of priests that had “credible allegations” of sexual abuse filed against them by victims; the victims were under the age of 18 at the time of the alleged incident. Included on the diocese’s “credibly accused” list, published online last week, was former pastor at Middlebury’s St. Mary’s
Parish, the late Fr. Paul M. Bresnahan. He served at St. Mary’s between 1983 and 1996. Bresnahan was born in 1928 in Proctor and was ordained in 1954 in Burlington). He served approximately 48 years with varied assignments: Burlington, Cathedral, (assistant), 1954-56 and Cathedral High School (assistant principal), 1955-56; Bennington, Sacred Heart, (assistant), and Bennington Catholic High School, (assistant principal), 1956-57; Enosburg Falls, St. John the Baptist, (temporary administrator), 1957; Washington, D.C., Catholic University, Social Services, 1957-59; Burlington/ Rutland, Vermont Catholic Charities, (assistant director), 1959-66 and Colchester, Camp Tara (director), 1959-62; Burlington,
Vermont Catholic Charities, (director), 19661983 and St. Joseph Child Center, (chaplain), 196677; Malletts Bay, Holy Cross, (assistant), 1977-1983; Middlebury, St. Mary, (assistant and pastor), 1983-96; Proctor, St. Dominic (pastor), 1996-2002. Bresnahan retired on May 15, 2002, and died on July 23, 2003, in Rutland. No details were provided by the diocese regarding Bresnahan’s alleged behavior with minors. “Additional files are and will need to be reviewed as more allegations surface. Formalizing the reporting process and including independent citizen panels are steps toward ensuring these crimes are no longer hidden. We all need to protect our children...,” according to the diocese’s published report. ■

Man perishes in Cornwall accident Vehicle submerged off Swamp Road By Lou Varricchio EDITOR
CORNWALL | On Aug. 20, at approximately 12:54 p.m., Vermont State Police troopers New Haven arrived to investigate the crash of a vehicle on the Otter Creek at Swamp Road and Creek Road in Cornwall. VSP Detective Sgt. Michael Notte reported that when troopers arrived at the creek, they found a vehicle, submerged, with its sole occupant in the driver’s seat. Police identified the driver as Joseph H. LaRocque, 67, of Middlebury.
Troopers said LaRoque was unresponsive when they found him in the vehicle. Medical first responders on the scene attempted to revive LaRocque, however, he was officially pronounced deceased at UVM-Porter Hospital. “An investigation and witness statements indicated LaRocque made no attempt to avoid the crash or escape the vehicle,” according to Notte. “His body was transported to the Chief Medical Examiner’s Office in Burlington for an autopsy to determine the cause and manner of death.” The cause of the accident was not released by police at press time. Multiple first-response teams arrived at the accident site and included the Middlebury Fire Department, Middlebury Heavy Rescue, Middlebury Technical Rescue and the Cornwall Fire Department. ■

Why Labor Day is worth celebrating Labor Day boasts a unique history that’s worth celebrating for a variety of reasons.
L
abor Day weekend is much-anticipated. Many people look forward to Labor Day weekend because it offers one last extended break to enjoy summer weather. Though summer does not officially end until September is nearly over, for many people Labor Day, which is celebrated annually on the first Monday in September, marks the unofficial end of summer. But Labor Day is more than just one final chance to embrace the relaxed vibe of summer and soak up some rays. In fact, Labor Day boasts a unique history that’s worth celebrating for a variety of reasons. WHAT IS LABOR DAY? The United States Department of Labor notes that Labor Day is a celebration of American workers that dates back to the 19th century. The day is meant to commemorate the contributions workers in the United States have made to the nation, helping to make it one of the strongest and most prosperous countries in the world. WHO CAME UP WITH THE IDEA OF LABOR DAY? Despite the fact that municipal legislation surrounding Labor Day was initially introduced in the 1880s, debate remains as to just who should be credited with proposing a day to honor American workers. Some records suggest that Peter J. McGuire, who served as general secretary of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners and cofounded the

1. The first celebrated US Labor Day was on Tuesday, September 5, 1882 in New York City, planned by the Central Labor Union.
4. There is disagreement about who actually proposed Labor Day as a holiday. Some say it was Peter J. McGuire, who was the cofounder of the American Federation of Labor. Others believe that it was Matthew Maguire, a machinist. 5. Oregon was the first state to celebrate Labor Day as a legal holiday in 1887. 6. The decision to make Labor Day the first Monday of September was approved on June 28, 1894. 7. Labor Day started as a part of the labor union movement, to recognize the contributions of men and women in the US workforce, but modernly is seen as a chance to celebrate the last weekend of summer. 8. Americans worked 12-hour days seven days a week during the 19th century! 9. The Adamson Act was passed on September 3, 1916 to establish an eight-hour work day. 10. Historians say the expression “no white after Labor Day” comes from when the upper class would return from their summer vacations and stow away their lightweight, white summer clothes as they returned back to school and work.

3. Canada is said to have originated the idea of hosting a day honoring the labor movement. In 1872, they held a “Nine-Hour Movement” to show support for striking workers.
WHY CELEBRATE LABOR DAY? Labor Day is worth celebrating because, without the contributions of millions of workers every year, the United States would not be the success story it is and has been for more than 200 years. In addition to the United States, many countries across the globe, including Canada and Australia, have their own versions of Labor Day. Labor Day weekend might now be seen as the unofficial end of summer. But this Labor Day weekend, celebrants and workers should remember that Labor Day also should be a time to reflect on the value of hard work. ■

LABOR DAY FACTS
2. 10,000 workers marched from City Hall all the way to 42nd Street and then met with their families in Wendel’s Elm Park for a picnic, concert, and speeches.
American Federation of Labor, deserves the credit for Labor Day. However, the Department of Labor notes that many people believe a machinist named Matthew Maguire (no relation to Peter) was the first to propose a holiday honoring workers in 1882. At that time Maguire was serving as secretary of New York’s Central Labor Union, which later adopted a Labor Day proposal and appointed a committee to plan a demonstration and picnic. The first Labor Day was ultimately celebrated in New York City on Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in accordance with the plans made by the Central Labor Union, which strongly suggests that Maguire does, in fact, deserve the credit for coming up with the holiday.

Middlebury men’s tennis earns ITA awards From Campus News Reports MIDDLEBURY COLLEGE
MIDDLEBURY | Following a solid year on the courts, 12 members of the Middlebury College men’s tennis team were lauded as Intercollegiate Tennis Association Scholar-Athletes when the organization announced its academic awards. The program also earned a 2019 ITA All-Academic Team Award for their collective hard work in the classroom.

MIDDLEBURY | While Americans have been racking up credit-card debt during the decade of the 2010s to the tune of $1 trillion, Vermonters hold the embarrassing position as being in third place when it comes to having the worst creditcard debt record in the nation. Only residents of Alaska and the District of Columbia have worse credit-card debt records than Vermont. In a new financial report released last week by the website WalletHub, Vermont was in third place with one of the nation’s worst credit-card debt pictures; it came in first, overall, with the least sustainable credit-card debt record among the 50 states. Last week’s WalletHub report shows residents of the Green Mountain State have a median credit-card debt of $2,227 with and expected (median) debt-payoff time of 15 months and 14 days. With a median income of $45,058, Vermonters cost of credit-card interest to payoff was $247. One of the financial experts WalletHub employed to compile the new report was Debra Blatz, a professor of marketing at St. Edwards University in Austin, Texas. Blatz noted that bad behavior on a daily basis can rack up credit debt as seen in the Vermont data. “Not setting financial goals leads to spending and not accomplishing anything like buying a house or having a reliable car or saving for retirement,” according to Blatz. “Not having a budget means people spend more money than they have without realizing it.” Blatz isn’t optimistic about Vermonters (and others) behavior over time.
“We have a consumer- based economy,” she noted. “I am not sure what we can do to ‘incent’ people to save in this environment. I was raised by two people who went through the Great Depression. They ingrained in me to save and to live below my income. Unless saving becomes part of our culture and something that is an attractive trait, I don’t know what we can do.” Beyond WalletHub’s less-than-sterling credit-card debt picture for Vermont, local experts such as economist Art Woolf of the University of Vermont (UVM), report more often on other factors, perhaps more worrying, which cloud the state’s economic sustainability for its residents. For example, Woolf cites Vermont’s demographics — its aging population, declining birth rates and contracting work-force chief among those more worrying signs: “In 15 years, roughly 1 in 4 Vermonters will be over the age of 65,” Woolf recently reported on a UVM blogsite. “Obviously that means that there’s not as many people working or available to work… I think what we need to do to reverse this demographic decline is try to make Vermont a very inviting place, not only for people of any age to come, but especially for businesses to come or to expand. And the two of them are going to work together.” According to ACCC’s estimate, the average Vermonter has $4,693 worth of credit card debt; this amount is well above the WalletHub figure reported last week. “The Green Mountain State is a peaceful and serene location with picturesque mountains for winter sports. But with the lowest gross state product in the nation and fairly small economy, Vermont residents often find themselves in need of debt solutions,” according to ACCC. ■

Green spaces: cure for unhappiness
for public health and urban planning. The new study was published last week in People and Nature, a new open-access journal of the British Ecological Society. For three months, a team of scientists from the University of Vermont studied hundreds of tweets per day that people posted from 160 parks in San Francisco. “We found that, yes, across all the tweets, people are happier in parks,” said Aaron Schwartz, a UVM graduate student who led the new research, “but the effect was stronger in large regional parks with extensive tree cover and vegetation.” Smaller neighborhood parks showed a smaller spike in positive mood and mostly-paved civic plazas and squares showed the least mood elevation. In other words, it’s not just getting out of work or being outside that brings a positive boost: the study shows that greener areas with more vegetation have the biggest impact. It’s notable that one of the words that shows the biggest uptick in use in tweets from parks is “flowers.” ■
Vermont research from News Reports UNIVERSIT Y OF VERMONT
Feeling unhappy and cranky? The treatment: take a walk under some trees in the park. That may not be the exact prescription of your doctor, but a first-of-its-kind study shows that visitors to urban parks use happier words and express less negativity on Twitter than they did before their visit—and that their elevated mood lasts, like a glow, for up to four hours afterwards. The effect is so strong—a team of scientists from the University of Vermont discovered— that the increase in happiness from a visit to an outpost of urban nature is equivalent to the mood spike on Christmas, by far the happiest day each year on Twitter. With more people living in cities, and growing rates of mood disorders, this research may have powerful implications
University of Vermont scientist Chris Danforth and student Aaron Schwartz. They were part of a team that used Twitter data to explore how thousands of city-dwellers feel in parks. Answer: happier. Photo by Andy Duback

DOWNTOWN DRILLING: As it completes drilling in Middlebury’s downtown Triangle Park, construction crews will drill four minipiles across the lower entrance to the Merchants Row Bridge. The bridge will be closed on Friday and Monday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., according to Jim Gish, the town community liaison with the project.
