Clan Gordon picnic summer half

If making million it to easy, the
wonder is that Ponzi has not more
imitators.
Healthy young Americans wishing
for a European tour might go on the
personally conducted tour of the Unit
ed States government, with Germany
as the place of longest stop three
years. Moreover, they can work out
their passage, board, etc. How? By
joining the United States army for a
little expeditionary force work.
Senator David I. Walsh of Massa
chusetts "pledges full support" to Cox
as a presidential candidate. Such a
pledge seems to have been superfluous
when Walsh was reported to be a
thick-and-thin supporter of Cox in the
convention. However, it makes for
newspaper publicity for the senator to
renew his vows of allegiance.
Gov. Holcomb of Connecticut, afraid
to leave his state for fear Lieut. Gov.
Wilson will call a special sesjion of the
legislature to act on suffrage ratifica
tion, should plan to spend the summer
of 1921 in company with Gov. Clem
ent in some salubrious climate far
from the importunings of tho suffrag
ists. They have very much in com
mon, if one were able to judge by
their public utterances, and no doubt
the company would be most congenial.
Their 1920 summer seems to 1c pretty
well taken care of as they are.
Growers of grapes in Spain have re
sorted to the crude method, (.ometimes
in vogue in the United States, of keep
ing the prices up through destruction
of much of the product. There is said
to be a bountiful supply of grapes in
certain parts of Spain, and the vine
yard owners feared a drop in the
price; therefore, they hurled large
quantities of grapes into the river. A
similar process is to be noted now and
then in the United States; and it is
not only in the field of agriculture, but
in the field of manufacture Da well.
Sometimes they fear sufficient supply
to meet the demand and so they curtail
production. It amounts to the same
thing as throwing grapes Into the
river.
Of course, Vermont voters who re
ceive copies of "The Drive," Vol. I, No.
I, will realize that the four jiag fold
er is merely a campaign document
printed in the interests of the candi
dacy of James Hartness of Springfield
for governor of Vermont and that it is
not primarily "issued in the interest of
a progressive Vermont" as a sub-heading
of the sheet explicitly states.
Voters perusing the articles carried in
the folder will know how to be guided
in their appraisal of the contents. The
fact that "The Drive" carries pictures
of all four Republican candidates for
governor, together with statements re
garding them, does not conceal the in
tent of the sheet as a document in
tended to further the campaign of Mr.
Hartne?. When the voters under
stand that "The Drive" can be dis
posed of as the voters see Ct either
read or thrown into the waste basket.
Those thousand teachers in summer
schools being conducted in Vermont
this summer give evidence, by their
attendance, of a desire to do their
part in building up the school system
of Vermont through the development
of greater efficiency in their own
school rooms. The number taking
courses in three of theae summer
schools is, we believe, the largest ever
registered in Vermont, indicating a
growing intention among the teachers
to prepare themselves in larger meas
ure for the responsibilities develop
ing upon them in the training of the
young people. As in many other lines
of activity, the teacher who endeavors
to reach out for larger ideas and for
more comprehensive training i like
ly to be the most valuable in her work,
for she is neither standing still nor
slipping back. That supposition in the
rase at hand is based, of course, on the
ground that the summer srhixiis of the
state are able to provide teachers with
that which will prove beneficial in
the development of their minds and
in the improvement of instruction in
the aohool rooms. It is to !e expect
ed that the course in the summer
schools will be along practical lines,
as thrr are given under competent su
pervinon. WATCH VILLA.

property, murdering right and left and
committing all the Crimea on the cal
endar of a brigand in such a country
as Mexico, Villa is strangely out of
place in the guise of the patriot de
claring that he is giving himself up
because the country needs peace for
the purpose of carrying out reconstruc
tion work. Heretofore Villa has never
been given credit for an overabundance
of patriotism for Mexico or for any
respect for the laws of that country.
He simply has been a law until him
self, yielding only when forced to do
so by superior numbera and arms. For
him to come tamely into camp of his
erstwhile enemiea and meekly say that
the country needs peace and so he is
going to lay down his arm is an act
which atuna the imagination oi Amer
icana if it does not surprise Mexicans.
Naturally enough, suspicion arises.
Was not Villa at the end of his rope
financially! Was the picking getting
so poor that he had to give up! Was
not his "army" preparing to desert him
for more alluring prospects! All
these queries arise in the minds of
those who have followed the career
of this daredevil of the cactus with
distrust, if not with apprehension.
Mexicans will do well to keep an eye
on Villa. He is not of the tractable
sort. Likewise, the United States
government cannot afford to lone sight
of the man who has given it more
trouble in recent years than anyone
else barring the Germans. Villa, de
spite his simulation of meekness, is
likely to break out into fume new
crime against Mexico or the United
States.

We hear it often said that a man's success in the world to-day is meas
ured very largely by the amount of wealth that he may possess but is this
an accurate statement? , . , i.if
Wc all know that few truly great men have been nch men, or at least,
men who would be called rich to-day, and we even know of instances where
great wealth has been a handicap to professional leadership, but in spite of
all this, history supplies ample proof to the fact that air great men have
recognized the importance of thrift as a vital force, in their own lives and a
contributing factor to success. , v
Carnegie, Rockefeller, Sage, Field, and countless others, have been
wise philanthropists because they knew from the school of experience the
value othnft .nspiration from th virtUe3 of thrift without being slaves
to its vices; they paid respect without practicing idolatry.
Save first and then spend wise'y!
