Clan Gordon picnic summer half gone. 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.

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. GROWN A daughter was born Tuesday night to Mr. and Mrs. George Haskell.

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.
