The AwocUted Preef la exflnaively entiU'd
to the dm foe repnhUration of all new dia
patehee credited to It or not otherwise ereo
,ited in thie paper, end alo the local aim
abUshed therein.
This is the season of the year when
Vermont has few roads, or even apolo
gies for roads.
Congressman Porter H. Dale has not
yet made an announcement that he is
to be a candidate to succeed himself in
;the national House. Perhaps a word
on the subject may be expected from
' him within a short time.
Ex-Pres. Taft has good reason to ap
peal to Vermont for ratification of the
i suffrage ameudment, for Vermont was
'about all Taft had la the presidential
election of 1912, and Taft feels a sort
,of proprietary interest In the Green
'Mountain state.
Hoover has replied definitely "No" to
the query whether he would accept the
Democratic) nomination for president
providing it were offered to him. This
ought to dispose of the silly argument
that Hoover is trying to ride two
horses at one and the same time. -
Although Vermont's brook trout sea
son will open to-morrow there are few
evidences that full stringg will be se
cured. The delay due to the weather
will probably have a tendency to make
the sport better a month from now,
giving the trout timo to develop.
. Rummaging around In the old flies of
the Brattleboro Plucnix, The Reformer
of Brattleboro has found an editorial
of April 8, 180!), which stated that
woman's suffrage "is only a question
of time." The asseveration eems to
be as true to-day as it was half a cen
tury ago and quite a bit nearer realization.
The day when women are considered
unfit for the medical profession is past,
and the University of Vermont does
well to recognize the change by decid
ing to admit women to matriculation
in the medical department of the in
stitution on the same basis as men.
Women are not taking to the profes
sion in large numbers but there is no
reason why they should not .be as suc
cessful as the men in practicing medi
cine if not in surgery.

St. Louis is one of the exceptions to
the rule as regards population statis
ticsthe rule of marked increase in
urban population and a proportionate
falling off in the country districts for
St. Louis gains only 12.5 per cent, the
smallest in the history of that mu
nicipality. No doubt a strong reason
for the slow development of the pop
ulation of the city is the decline of the
liquor industry through the incoming
of federal prohibition, inasmuch as St.
Louis had a considerable volume of
business in the line of beer-making, be
ing almost as well known in that busi
ness as is Milwaukee. Thus national
prohibition has done an unexpectedly
good turn in preventing the cluttering
up of some of the great centers of pop
ulation with more people than can be
conveniently cared for.
The abandonment of the handsome,
two and one-half years' old boy in St.
Johnsbury was undoubtedly a good
thing from the standpoint of the boy,
for the man and woman who left the
youngster to his fate proved them
selves unworthy to bring up the boy
and make the best kind of eitixen out
of him. Now, the boy will be sure to
get a good home and be given all the
tender care and attention that i lav
ished on a child iu the average Amer
ican home, wliereas his life under the
control of the man and woman who
brought him to St. Johnbury, would
have been moat uncertain and unsatis
factory, while the crime of aban
doning the child was most reprehen
sible, it seems probable that the re
eults will prove of great vslue in giv
ing the boy the right etart in life. How
ever, thst ehcuU no prevent a keen
aearrh being made for the offenders.
FAITH
To have "and hold our faith in our f ellowmen is the foundation
upon which our government was founded; it is the essence of
true democracy.
Whatever differences of opinion may arise; whatever con
flicting emotions and passions may for the moment warp our
judgment, we still have enough, faith m each other to believe that
eventually a common viewpoint can be reached - a common
ground of interest where we can work together for the greater
food of all. If this cannot be done, we must deny all. progress
and regard man as a being insensible to moral and spintual in
fluences, just merely a beast.
We as a bank have absolute confidence and faith in those
"with whom we are doing business and the community at large,
and if our conduct is worthy of such confidence, we shall take
new hope in our mission of public service.
' Let's have faith! .

We can't compete for battery business on price.
Willard service doe cyst more, so does a Willard
Battery. But isn't it true that if you hire a raal
engineer, or architect, or contractor , or carpen
ter, or mechanic, or doctor, or lawyar, that it
saves in the long run?
We're in business to do the job rit h t the firat time
and that costs more than to fix it so it has to be
done over again soon after.
When we sell a Willard Battery with Threaded
Rubber Insulation we charge more for it, but, it
doesn't come back for re -Insulation with a big bill
to you. It stay on the job till it has delivered ell
the service you bought and generally a lot more
than you'd believe possible.
Try ft once and youll feel the same as 99 cf

The taking of heavy, drastic cathartics has given
way to the more modern method of lubricating
the human machinery with MINERAL OIL.
This bland, really tasteless, colorless, odorless
MINERAL OIL mechanically lubricates the in

gree of possibility of restoring the functions to
normal condition. There can be no injury and no
