FRANK E. LANOl.EY. I'ublUlier
The hunters nre earning their deer this
season.
The Little Bed Hon is crowned queen
of November.
Those Interrupted football schedules
can be resumed in December.
It was nearly "Dcutscliland miter
Riles," with the tug directly on top.
The New England fruit show has
brought the Vermont apple into its own.
' The candidates for chaplain of the Ver
mont House are springing up. Which
one can pray tli most in the least time?
The more zero wemlier we get this late
dummer, the lens we'll get early next
summer nt loist if nature strikes the
jiroper balance.
ward In the at rengt hening of the military
arm of the state. 'The machine gun plays
a nio.-t important part in modern war
fare. In fact, it is one of the most effi
cacious instruments to withstand attack
ever invented, as has been shown repeat
edly during the great conflict across the
water. The trenches everywhere are
quipped with machine guns; and the
army that is deficient in machine guns
is generally the loser in the battle. The
t.'nited States military department wits
weak in this equipment at the outbreak
of the Mexican emluoglio, as it also was
weak in its air service. Since then, how
ever, rllorts have been directed toward
bridging the machine gun part of the
service at least up to the average of the
main department. Vermont, too, was
very much behind some of the neighbor
ing states in equipment of this sort.
Therefore, it will be encouraging to those
who seek the improvement of the state's
military arm that this company at St.
Albans has been formal. There might
well be other machine gun companies
throughout the state.
When defeated, the ('ermans retire to
R place previously prepared for them, as
the Berlin official statements have it.
Letting them down easy, as it were.
Tim prospect of a great railroad strike,
of shoe leather going to $.'!(! a pair and
of gasoline sticking 'round the 23-per
gallon murk is not very alluring to those
who wish to move about.
The Teutons perhaps consider it. a mili
tary necessity to send their airplanes
over Bucharest to drop bombs on the
civilian population of the Rumanian cap
ita ; but the verdict of history will be to
the contrary.

Supreme Court Adjourned November
Term Yesterday Afternoon.
Supreme court adjourned yesterday
afternoon after being in session for the
N'ovember term since Wednesday, Nov.
S. About a score of oases were argued
or submitted on briefs, the rest on the
trial calendar bcN g continued until the
'January term. Justice Seneca Hasel
ton returned to his home in Burlington
lust evening and Chief Justice Lovc-
luiid Munson left for Manchester this
forenoon.
Although there has been a hunting vie

President Wilson has given a recess
appointment to the department of com
merce to Edward Sweet, who resigned in
order to run for governor of Michigan
.and who was defeated this month. Then
there's Hughes Charles Evans Hughes,
Mr. President.
In July the National Guardsmen on
the Mexican border were writing about
the terrific heat: now those still left
there are describing the terrific cold and
some of them are deserting. They are
experiencing some of the hardships which
the soldiers of the great war pass
through.
If a woman who holds a post office ap
pointment is content to In- called post
master, the designation which the gov
ernment gives, then the woman elected
to Congress ought to be satisfied with
the designation of congressman. Miss
Rankin from Montana is Congressman
Rankin, or will le when she takes her
seat in the House,
If there were any lingering infantile
paralysis germs in Vermont they should
have been rendered hors de combat by
reason of the heavy blow of Jack Frost.
It. is to be noted, however, that cases
continue to break out in Massachusetts
albeit the number is very small as com
pared with the total during the warmer
months.
The cold wave is said to have damaged
the Oregon apple crop to the extent of
$1,500,000. This means that the Oregon
orchardists are not accustomed to pick
their apples before the middle of Novem
ber, for the cold wave struck that section
about that time. Vermont apple growers
have their product all picked and, gen
erally, on the way to the market before
that time.
The selection of Sherman R. Moulton
of Burlington to be reporter of decisions
for the Vermont supreme court seems to
meet with quite general approval
throughout the state. Mr. Moulton has
been practicing law for 15 years, follow
ing his graduation from the law depart
ment of Harvard university, and he is
executive clerk for Governor Gates. Mr.
Moulton succeeded John Redmond of
Newport, who has held the position for
a dozen years and who now retires to
devote more -of his time to his private
Jaw practice. If he measures up to the
standard set by Mr. Redmond, the new
comer will meet the requirements.
Tn probate court yesterday afternoon,
Arthur W. Locklin of Northlield, who
was arresteil several weeks agb on a
charge of larceny from his father's es
tate, settled his account as administrator
of the estate. Loroy A. Eastman of
Northlield Falls has been appointed ad
ministrator in his place. The charge of
larceny against Iocklin may bo nol
prossed because he and his mother are
heirs of the estate.
Only ten tickets Mere sold at the local

noon trains. Among t!ie who went
this forenoon were It. T. Ledden, Dennis j
Hennessy and Cecil Egg. Mr. Egg will:

Lieut Cov.-Elect Roger W. Hulburd !

to-day and Gov. -Elect H. F. Galiam left j
on the same train with E. E. Joslyn of,
the auditing department for Burling-j
ton. i
S. A. Dole of the high school faculty j
left this forenoon for Boston and Am- j
herst, Mass., to spend a few days with j
relatives. i
The chancery case of C. S. Whittier vs. I
Montpelier Ice company and G. V. Par- j
mentcr, which was heard a year ago, tak
en to supreme court and decree of re- j
verse and cause remanded, was taken up i
yesterday afternoon before Chancellor j
Frank I.. Fish. The case is the result
of n dispute nbout the ownership ol
land bordering the North branch river
where ice is cut annually. The parties
interested and the chancellor visited the
premises yesterday.
Local football fans have not yet aban
doned the hope that trie .Montoelier hiuh-
Rutland high game will be plaved this
season and they may be rewarded if the
snow vanishes before Thanksgiving. To
morrow a number of local enthusiasts
are planning a trip to Burlington to wit
ness the Verniont-Middlebury game.
Editor Frank E. Howe of the Benning
ton Banner returned to-day to his home

iness. Hubert Forgue, a student at Mt. Her
mon school. Northfield, Mass., has ar
rived home because of illness but plans
to return as soon as he recovers his t
health.
Miss Doris Farrar of Wakefield, Mass.,
is visiting in the city with Mr. and Mrs.
Waldo H. Farrar of College street for a
week.
Lynn S. Havs of Burlington, who has
been in the city for several weeks dur
ing the political campaign and the fruit
show, left this afternoon for Boston on
a business trip.
We trust that the story of the Deutseh
land's mishap while trying to leave New
Ixmdon will not be magnified by the Gor
man newspapers into an attempt by the
tug to sink the submersible. On another
occasion recently the German excitable
press had the story that American ships
tried to ram the l'-.VI when she was
passing ahng the coast in her westward
trip. The mishap to the Deutsehland
might easily bo distorted into a story of
an attempt to destroy the coniinrree
carrying vessel, providing the German
agents in the I'nited States do not take
the trouble to set right the Germans at
home. In the I'nited States it is well
known that the accident was' a mere
chance.
MACHINE GUN COMPANY.
Has Been Formed at St. Albans for the
National Guard.
St. Albans, Nov. 17. The organization
of a machine gun company, to be a part
of the First regiment, Vermont National
Guard, has been begun in this city, and
the work of enlistment has been started,
with Captain Charles E. Pell as recruit
ing officer. The recruiting up to author
ized strength of 53 men and four com
missioned officers will continue at the
armory every evening tor an indefinite
period of time. As soon as the company
is fully organized some suitable place
will be rented as headquarters and for
the storing of equipment, but drills will
be conducted in the armory.
Captain J'ell will remain in command
of Co. B, his connection with the ma
chine gun company being only that of
recruiting ollicer.

Basil Piper Died Through His Own Care
lessness. Middlebury, Nov. 17. Basil Piper, who
was shot by his on gun when he stum
bled in the mountains about 12 miles
from here early Wednesday morning
while out with three of his fellow sports
men on a deer huntintr trip, died yester
day at the home of Daniel Dragon, where
he was taken by his companions after
the accident. He was 17 years old. It
Is said that the young man was con
scious until the end, but sulTored great
pains as the wound was a very ugly j
one, the charge having entered the body
just below the lett lung, coming out'
through the shoulder. i

brothers, Chester and George piper, and.
three sisters, the Misses Gladys. Edla j
and Mcrriol Piper, all of Kat" Middle-

niains were brought to his horte in East '

If a Round-Oak 3-Fuel Combination Range cost you as much as the two good
complete ranges it represents, it would still be a good investment but it
doesn't ! It actually costs less. Not because of any less cooking facilities, but
because of the manufacturer's inventive genius in providing them in more compact form
in eliminating unnecessary material and labor. The cost is but little more than for a
good coal range and actually no more than for the average coal range with a small gas attachment. Why
postpone the investment in a necessity that pays such handsome dividends in added convenience, comfort, and
economy? Why not see this unique range to-day?
