day as she was going up to her wharf at
Bay Ridge on the afternoon trip. Some
gentlemen who were on the upper deck

steamer and her dock, and pass over two

Pronunciation of Ballet.

The French pronunciation is balla, the
second syllable being accented fully as
strongly as the first. We commonly hear
it pronounced bal-ly, which is neither En-
glish nor French. There is no good reason
why it should not be Anglicized and pro-
nounced ballet, in accordance with the
recommendation of several orthoepists.-

Not even the most Indifferent could
have gone away from these meetings
without becoming deeply interested in
this most important work This is the
verdict of many n one who attended.
The occasion was the 65th anniversary
of the American Home Missionary -Soci-
ETY., held in Saratoga June End 10 4th.
The attendance was large and enthusi-
astic. One of the features of the meet
ing was the stress laid upon the depend
ence of this society upon the business
men of this country. In DIR. Calkins'
sermon upon the subject of "Responsi-
bility of business men of wealth." some
very interesting figures were given, which
we hope at some future time to present.
Another feature was the WpOrts by
State secretaries. These men come to
the meetings full of the spirit of theil
work as the pilgrims to Mecca, and al
go away strengthened, while the people
listen with interest to their reports
This society has made steady progress
from its organization in 1926 until the

KEEP THE YOUNG MEN.

A mighty good idea was the banquet
of the Bellows Falls club at that place
Tuesday evening. 1t was the first of the
kind ever held in the State. The sub
ject of discussion after the banquet was
How can the people of Vermont, with
or without capital, best advance the ma
terial interest of the State?"
There were some $50 at the tables.
The guests included Lieut.. Gov. Fetch
er, Hon. w. W. Grout, Col George W
Hooker, Col Levi X. Fuller, Hon. w. A.
Russell, Assistant Secretary of WaI
Town Hall at 1870. The gathering was
called to order at $3.50 o'clock by the
president of the club, George Babbitt
Hon. A. n. Swain acted as master Of
ceremonies. President Dabbtt made q
brief speech of welcome and introduced
Hon. A. n. Swain as toast-master. Let
ters of regret from Governor Page, Hon
Redfeld Proctor, Senator George F. Ed
munds, Congressman Powers, Gen. +. g
Butterfield, were read.
Lieutenant Governor Fletcher was in
troduced and spoke on the needs of thu
State and what was required to make i
more prosperous. Among other thing
he said: "As | look at matters, mel
must either have capital, energy o.
brains. The best is a combination of al
three. Some towns are gaining, som,
losing, but we must do what we can t,
prevent loss of population"
Gen. l.. A. Grant thought that Yer
mont was all right, that it was all RICH
for young men to go away if they wishe'
to build up States elsewhere. No matte
if Vermont did anguish. He advise,
the people to cultivate natural beauties
build summer resorts, fill the brook
with trout, let farms become abandoned
not mind the loss of men who wished t
90 to distant States.
Hon. William A. Russell did not thin
that it was best. He said work must b,
done here. He did not think the Stat
was all right but thought it needle
many things to make it right. ColonC
Hooker said that one should put none
into Vermont industries and don't sen
capital elsewhere. Keep it at home an
build up our own towns. Build up tn
State, keep the Puritan stock pure an
don't let young men leave, he urged
Make the State beautiful, but keep you
young men at home.
Congressman Grout emphasized til
idea of keeping the young men at HON
and keeping stock pure. Others froI
local towns spoke, adding much to tn
discussion.

ANOTHER THIRD PARTY.

Senator PETERS collection of political
misiits made its debut and formed
another fifth wheel party at Cincinnati a
week or so ago. Like all younglings it
is bursting with great plans for rescuing
this unfortunate country from its i'm
pending ruin. It's intended to gobble up
all the other sorehead organizations ond
unite for final conquest. OF course the
down-trodden farmer, the surplus, the
lack of surplus, the corruption in high
places, all receive their share of consid-

LIBERTIES OF THE PRESS.

The following excerpt of a New York
Justices charge to the jury in recent
newspaper libel suit contains a number
of readable truths:
1t is undoubtedly true that any person
who puts himself or allows himself to be
put upon a ticket or to be presented for
a public office thereby places himself in
a position where he must expect and
where he is entitled to have his fitness
for the Office in any respect considered.
talked about, written about. discussed
and criticised. The importance of this
particular Office puts a man peculiarly in
position where he must expect at least
fair consideration and fair talk and fair
criticisms of his fitness for the office. In
no other way could the public ADEQUATE
ly protect itself, Oftentimes against the
danger of improper persons securing of
flee. We all recognize this right to con
slider, to investigate, to inquire about, to
discuss aud TO criticise his fitness: and |
use that word to cover everything: his
honesty, his ability, his associations. and
everything connected with it; his fitness
for the office.
The power of the newspaper press, and
especially of the daily press, is fully an
preciated when we consider il for a mo-
ment. An individual may write letter
and may circulate it about. 1t may be
read by more or less individuals, but il
is single paper nevertheless, and it can.
not travel very rapidly. But take the
matter contained in that written papeI
and put it in type and let the press of a
daily newspaper turn it out by the thous.
ands to be distributed all through the
cities and to almost every house in the
country and you will readily appreciate
gentlemen, how many people may read
what one man writes, and therefore. what
power the daily newspaper has of dis
seminating information, good or bad
into every part Of country and among
all classes of people.
The object and the right and yer,
likely the duty, of a newspaper, is t.
educate the people; 10 give them infor
nation and to direct, in q proper way
the action of the people.
Applying it to politics and TO the Sc
lection of persons for Office 1t is peculiar
ly the duty of a newspaper TO afford sucl
information as it can to the public. Il
enlighten the public, to inform the pub
lie and the voters, to direct and control
so far as they can, the manner in which
the people shall vote and the persons TO
whom they shall vote for public office
! say this is the privilege and the right
and think it is generally considered +,
be the duty of good newspaper to d,
that. So that there is not only RICH
upon the part of newspaper to do thes
things but there is duty, as we under
stand it, devolving upon a good newspa
per to direct public sentiment, so far a
may be, and to direct the popular vote
The newspaper, therefore, has a grea
power for good. Oftentimes within on
own experience the newspaper has per
formed service in ferreting out wrongs
in exposing corruption, and in bringin-
the guilty to justice,

Every indication goes to show that
dairy products will be unusually high il
Vermont rs well as elsewhere this sea
son. The great bulk of the butter will
be made this Sc lson through creamories
and the growth of this institution in pop
ular favor during the past year has Leer
remarkable. The Franklin County
Creamery Association for instance, which
has just begun operations at st. Adams
is working up the bulk of the cream
produced in Franklin county. The mill
is taken to local separatOrs and the cream
is shipped in cold cars to st. Alban,
where it is worked up at great saving
in expense and with greatly desired
uniformity of product as result. II
other sections creameries are being con
,lidated under one management and the
industry is thus brought into n few
hands so that it will be comparatively
elsy matter to control the price. Cheese
factories take most of the milk that the
creameries skip, and as they are con
trOllCd in the same manner largely the
result will be the same.
