RUTLAND
DAILY AND WEEKLY GLOBE.
vERM0NT's LARGEST AND BEST
NEWSPAPER.

The new year, concentrating the compile.
ton OF the first century OF our independence
and witnessing the election OF president and,
for the first time In our history, an entire ma
tonal house of representatives, Will be one OF
splendid possibilities both to journalism and
the country,
THE GLOBE will avail Itself OF the former, by
giving the news, late, prompt fresh and full /;
by impartial comments on the news OF the
hour; by candid, honest discussion of the Is
sues OF the day by full reports of local occur
rences, and correspondence both local and
general by agricultural readings, market re-
ports. and by selections both grave and gay.
In a word, the endeayor will be to make TIL.
GLOBE n live newspaper, indispensable TO the
farmer and business man, to the politician and
student to the oflce, counting room aud the
family circle.
That the country may realize the possibilities
seemingly In store fol 1t, we shall on our part,
as In times past, advocate the principles and
policy OF the republican party, as we under
stand them, and, to that end, we shall labor to
make 1t better and purcr by combating Its
errors and exposing the wrong-doers in It's
ranks. We shall favor and strive for real ed-
mlnistratiye reform, speedy return to specie
payments, an honest maintenance OF the ma
tion's plighted faith, "a purer and better politics.
faithful and economical administration OF the
government, municipal, state and national, and
shall support only honest, capable men for
ONCE.
AS an earnest of the future.we can only point
to our course In the past. and assure our pat
rons that hereafter, as heretofore, we shall en-
deavor to make TnE GLOBE better and better,
ana more and more worthy or support with
each succeeding month. What The GLOBE
has been during the less than three years OF its
existence Is well known, that 1t has been fully
appreciated its generous support amply attests.
As medium OF advertising, THE GLOBE is I'M
surpassed in Vermont. The combined daily
and weekly circulation exceeds that OF any other
daily and weekly newspaper In vermont the
circulation OF the dailyis equal to that of any
other daily in Vermont the circulation Of The
WEEKLY GLOBE Is much larger than the combined
circulation Of all The other iceekiy newspapers ia

larger than that OF any other weekly journal in
western Vermont Advertisers make note OF
thsa of the further fact that 1t is the largest

. The Century Problem.

A gentleman born on tie 9th of Feb
ruary, 1924, which quarter of the present
century was he born in? The Boston
Journal elucidates the point thus: AS
the year 1900 was the first year of the
century, 1901 the second, and 1902 the
third year 1924 was the twenty-fifth year
of the century, thus winding up the first
quarter of the century with December
81, 1924. Per contra, was " the year 1900
the first of the centuryT Suppose the
present century to have been the first in
the history of the era--then what should
we call the year corresponding to 1900
as reckoned above2 We couldn't call
it nothing, and says that man for in
stance, was "borno the 9th of January,
o." The first year, then, would be the
year /, and the year would be the sec
ond year r,and the year rs would be the
twenty-fifth year, thus winding up the
first quarter of the century. Hence the
year loo would be needed to complete
the century, and by the same reasoning
following down the fight of time
the year 1900 would be needed to COM
pletc the eighteenth century, SO that the
year 1901 would really be the beginning
of this century, and the year 1928 would
fall within the first quarter OF the CEN
tury. Here are two sides of this ques-
tion.
