Medicine wasn't much of a science then as the mind reviews the bunches of pennyroyal, catnip, sage and sweetf em suspended from uncased rafters in the summer kitchen as a precaution against the chills and ills ef winter. In those days the signal service was undreamed, but granddad with a fair accuracy for long periods could foretell conditions from the husk of the corn, migration of birds and the hang of the moon. When the hired man's wife took sick and little Bill came guess the doctor didn't get more than three dollars and there wasn't any nurse, but neighborhood wives with broods of their own came in and loving kindness with human interest supplanted scientific know edge. Bill lived and so didthe mother. The school was a crude affair often taught by a man who couldn't pass a modern civil service examination as a federal building janitor, but somehow "or other the boys and girls learned a lot of useful things and in the trying 'places of life they could tack against a wind that would baffle their grandsons who holds membership in three Greek letter societies. The preacher then wasn't much of a fel low taken by the measure of a modern dominie and probably couldn't make a place in a. salvation corps; never heard of higher criticism and wouldn't allow that error could creep into wood pulp and printer's ink if moulded into holy writ. His donations of firewood, spareribs and promises wouldn't rec ompense a man honored with a di vinity degree, but somehow rural com munities didn't deteriorate under his ministration. Those were other days, gone with their crudeness and limitations, but they seem to have taken with them that spirit of neighborhood interest and, satisfying touch in distress that helped many a troubled Mfe over an hour of despair. L. The tax rate over in our neighboi -ing village of Rock Island, P. Q., this year is $50 on $1000 valuation. If you owe ' any taxes in the ' Domin ion municipality better pay the bill with Canadian money. Ex-Gov. Fletcher in a set speech again attacks idealism as dangerous in politics and government, yet we know of one man who according to Walton's Register was elected govern or of Vermont by 48,577 plurality on a pledge of direct, tangible and un equivocal accomplishment. ' Twenty-six years ago when Jerome Hale began keeping Hale's tavern at Wells River he threw the key In the river and the hostelry "hasn't been locked since. During the time he has entertained 214,273 guests, 13,000 of them so far the present- year. As Mr. Hale ' has never been mentioned for governor or congressman, he must be one , of Newbury's hundred demo crats. There's more than one $3000 farm in Vermont abutting a half mile or better of country highway, and when any highf aluting road "expert begins to talk about permanent roads cost ing from $10,000 to $25,000 a mile, tc say nothing of drainage, grading and bridges and $200 or $300 a year for upkeep, it's about time for taxpayers to get their book of common prayer and turn to the supplication for "nor malcy." There must be an untold tale when one Henry Tessier under indictment at Montpelier for smuggling China men into the United States, can- read ily furnish $7500 bail before Com missioner Cleary when caught red handed with two Chinamen, an alien, 200 quarts of whiskey and two $500 diamond rings. It looks as if there might somewhere be a well-financed smuggling trust. : That it is possible to determine mo ral character by physical measure ments, is the claim of Professor Bur ger, of Berlin. He has designed an instrument for that purpose which he calls a "plastometer." . It is a meiai device which fits over the head of the subject. The inventor claims that with its assistance he can-determine f:cs relating to the character-of any person. . . PRESS CLIPPINGS Senator Page and Advertising. (Senator CVS. Page in the Boston Globe) ; "I am a great believer in advertis ing in the use of printer's ink, I did the same in politics, and have always found that it paid. If I had not ad vertised I would have plodded along and eked out a living instead of a fortune. "If you've grot something to sell or are in the market to buy, let the peo ple know it; and if you are a good business man you will succeed." Congressman Dale Gets Legion Dem onstration. (Middlebury Register) Tee speech of Congressman Dale at the convention of the American Le gion at Rutland last week was a mas terpiece for patriotism and loyalty to the ex-service men of Vermont. The Congressman was in excellent form and gave expression in no uncertain terms to his position on legislation now pending in congress for the physical and financial betterment of veterans of the World war. The na tional adjutant of the legion gave tes timony and strong endorsement of the untiring efforts and valuable work rendered by Congressman -Dale for the legion in congress during the last session. The department convention gave him a rousing welcome, and the dem onstration thatt followed his speech has seldom been equalled in any confer ence of like nature in Vermont. The buddies of the legion showed their ap preciation in a real lively fashion. To Boost .Vermont. (Burlington Clipper) The mighty force of the hotel men of Vermont are behind a movement to boost Vermont and they will do it. They have got together to work in conjunction with other agencies to put Vermont on the map that is put the state over big. At the meeting of the Hotel Asso ciation of Vermont last week the need of doing, something more was clearly shown. Action was taken to adver tise the state in a cooperative way and to bring to the attention of city people the advantages of the state as a summer resort and the benefits of winter sports. In this work the hotel men will have the help of the rest of the peo ple. Everyone in Vermont wants to see the state do better, have more summer guests and take on a larger degree of prosperity. Much can be done to attract outside people, by advertising and there is every reason to believe that an elaborate plan will be carried out next year. Now that the hotel men have start ed a real movement to boost Vermont let's all get behind the plan and push. The benefits to be derived -will .be measured by the efforts put forth. Political Peregrinations. (H. L. Hindley in Rutland Herald) Dropped around to the Free Press office and after admiring the rejuve nated Crooked Stairs found the old Lady in her lair, represented for the time being by John Southwick and a bunch of his": viinions, busily battinj? ou ' copy, answering bells and telling folks the editor was busy. John is fast acquiring the worried look of the sagacious old hen whose eggs were changed to duck's eggs and who cannot account for her chickens. John undertook to set the rural New Yorker straight by telling 'em that Elbert Brigham couldn't very well run for U. S. senntor so long a3 we-all had. picked Frank Greene for the job right in Frank's own county, too but reckoned Elbert could do a lot of running for. governor if he set out. Honestly, I don't believe Elbert had thought of the thing seriously, being mainly concerned about telling a thousand-odd cattlemen that they can't have their herds tested just yet and will they take it up with Dr. De Fosset, but Brigham as a farmers' candidate is just as likely to fill a long-felt want as Bell was or Gates was or Foote is right now, for that matter. In fact. I heard a half a dozen talk ing about the Brigham "boom," and among them occasionally stood John Southwick, still wearing that distinct ly worried look. If the farmers take up Brigham the way they took up the other farmer candidates good nightl Which leads up to the simple and elemental fact that not only will the farmers control the next House (ac cording to present plans) but they fig ure on controlling and organizing the senate. . If, in addition thereto, they could elect their own governor, what a fine piece of work that would be! But, you may say, what is the mat ter with Abe as a farmers' candidate ? Not. a thing except the platform on which he may or may not be running, but , you can see how far-reaching a :omparatively simple matter may be. How can the farmers organize the Senate? Give them two senators from' Addi son county, one from Bennington, one from Caledonia, two from Chittenden, one from Essex, one from Franklin, me from Grand Isle, one from La noille, one from Orange, two from Orleans, two from Rutland, two from Washington, two from Windham and two from Windsor. This makes 21 and it only takes 16 to control. And where would a serious Brigham candidacy leave Frank Greene? And Greg Smith? And other dynastic hopefuls? Buh-lieve me, if the farmers take hold of the Brigham candidacy the way they took hold of the Brigham measures in the legislature, John Southwick has a perfectly good rea son to look worried." Small Girl's Generous Ofir. Little Rose was playing with her doll whpn the wig feil off. Just then a man came along who had no hair on the top of his bead. Rose ran up to him and. said: "Say, mister, you can have this wig to cover that empty spot on the top of your head If you want It" How's This?

It contains an auditoriam to seat 200, kitchen, bedrooms and bath for re lief work and cost $7000. Lyndonville people gave a barbecue Friday night to their baseball team, which closed the season with 26 vic tories and lost only nine games. There was speaking and a street dance and carnival last in e until midnight. Work will be begun directly on the drainage of Vermont highways under an appropriation of $40,000 from the general highways maintenance fund, and as much work as can be done un der the appropriation will be com pleted this fall. - Along with the claims of theyoung est great-grandfathers, Mrs. Marga ret Rogers of Springfield- wishes to lay claim to being one of the youngest great-grandmothers. She was 59 years old when her great-granddaughter was born in Proctorsville, Oct. 26, 1920, On September 1 there were 950 in sane patients being cared for by the state of .Vermont, divided as follows : Waterbury hospital, 389 men and 369 women; Brattleboro retreat 292. At Brattleboro there are also 293 pa tients bein care for by other means than state aid. John Shonion or Jack Shannon and Robert Hill were sentenced by Judg; McNamara - in Burlington Municipal court Saturday to a minimum of eight years each at Windsor prison. They were charged with holding up au tomobile parties and breaking and entering railroad stations. Antonio Pizzol of "Barre was fined $100 in city court for distributing I. W. W. circulars on the streets. The handbills were sent from the Chicago headquarters and urged organization, referring largely to conditions in the West Virginia coal fields. A city ordinance prohibits the distribution of handbills on the streets. When Alfred Landin had not been seen by his neighbors at lower Web sterville since Wednesday and there had been no signs of life around his home, friends entered the little cot tage Friday al.ternoon and found Landin hanging by the neck from a stairway. Medical examination caused the belief that the man had been dead for nearly 48 hours. Paul T. Simchak, an Austrian resi dent in the town of Sharon, was found 1 rt . aeau in ms cow Darn aunaay morning, his right temple penetrated by a bullet. A revolver was cluched in his right hand. The death is taken for granted as a case of suicide. Deputy Probation Officer Charles A. Smith left Montpelier Saturday for Messina, N. Y., with an executive war rant for James M. Brown, who is be ing held by the chief of police there for violating the terms of his parole from state's prison at Windsor. Brown was convicted of bigamy Sept. 16, 1919, and sentenced from two or three years at Windsor. He was paroled on May 1, 1920. Sheriff Farr of Bristol is perplexed by a recent theft in that village. The cemetery authorities recently discov ered that a sun dial had been removed from a pedestal in the burial ground and carried away. While the matter was beinop investigated, the dial was received by express without any mes sage of explanation as to why it was taken or who the offender was. The shipment was made from Rutland. Articles of association of the Dun ham Trust, Inc., were received at the office of the secretary of state last week. The purposes of the corpora tion, as set forth in the articles, arc the aid of poor, and deserving people in matters of education and medical attendance, aid to religious and other charitable organizations, endowment of hospitals and other charities, aid to civic improvement and the receipt of gifts for charitable purposes. The incorporators are Brattleboro men. - AH the directors of the Brattleboro and Whitehall Railroad company.! which owned the West river branch of the Central Vermont Railroad in 1905, met in Brattleboro Saturday and decided: to take action to prevent the Cenral Vermont Railroad compa ny from carrying out its plan to cut off all trains on the West River branch except one mixed train each way, beginning- Sept. 26.

Big Week at State Fair The outlook for a successful Ver mont State fair could not be more promising. Secretary Fred L. Davis and his assistants are giving their full time to list and assign the many exhibits that will be seen in every department. When the fair opens on Monday, October. 3, it is expected to have ev erything ( in readiness, for the public. Vermont is making a big showing at the New England States Exposi tion at Springfield, Mass., and this extensive exhibit is to be moved from Springfield to the -Vermont State fair. It will occupy a whole build ing. The trotting schedule wilB begin on Tuesday, October 4, and continue each day of the fair except Friday, when the whole day will be given up to auto racing and auto polo. In the racing schedule there are large strings of horses and each event shows a big list of entries. There will be some of the best horses in New England in the events. Wherever auto polo has been seen this . season it has attracted Large gatherings. It is said to be the most hazardous sport of the period and as the game is played directly in front of the grandstands and on the track spectators will have the opportunity of witnessing every feature of the game. The cattle entries, which will be large, will show herds from several states and from the stables of many famous breeders. The policy of the management this season will be to issue no return checks, and for this reason every pa tron coming by auto is requested to park his machine , in the park with in the grounds. The eating facilities will be found to be the best. The restaurants have been arranged to feed a greater num ber of people than heretofore and chefs have been engaged who are ac customed to taking care of large crowds. "We feel." says Secretary Davis, "that the Vermont State fair this year will delight all patrons in every way.' Divorces decreased in the last court year in Connecticut. According to a report filed from July 1, 1920, to July 1, 1921, the decrees were 1382, as compared with 1488 the previous twelve months. i Collection of approximately $12,000, j 000 in delinauent ariA additional safes and miscellaneous taxes by the gov ernment as a result of a special drive ending, Sept. 3. is announced by Com missioner Blair .
