MASON S. STONE

Mason s. Stone came down from Morris
vile Friday evening on brief business
trip, returning this afternoon. To JOUR-
NAL reporter he said he bsd been more than
busy since his appoiu ment to the Philip
pines in receiving and answering applica-
tions for positions there as teachers. He
has received over 800 such applications,
forty per cent of which have been from
Vermont.
Mr.. Stone is not authorized to engage
teachers, and will take none with him when
he leaves, about March 10. He wishes,
however, to interest educators in the work
there, and open up certain channels of
supply.
The next day after the announcement OF
Mr.. stones appointment apperred exolu-
svely in the DAILY JOURNAL he had thirty
nine applications for the position of teacher
in the islands.
When asked about the language OF that
country, Mr.. Stone said it is the intention
of the educators to Americsnize the people
there, and to instruct them in the English
language. The higher caste there speak
Spanish, but more than eighty dialects are
spoken by the common people. 1t is not
only to teach in the schools that the Amer
lean educators go there, but to teach the
people how TO develop American ideas
and customs
from Normal school and college graduates.
Only those will be selected who have the
requisite qualifications, who sppreciat' the
needs of the country and the opportunities
offered, who are wholesome in their life
and conduct, and who will be able to rep
resent our national life and national ideas
These teachers will not be selected until the
latter part OF this year.
While in Montpelier Mr.. Stone procure
from Dr. III. S. Boardman two years sup
ply OF aconite and nux vomica, two essen
tial remedies in that country.
Mr.. Stone will b in Chicago Thursday,
February 27, when he will hold confer
ence with State superintendents of educa
ton relative to securing supply OF teach
ers, and wi endeavor at that time 10 inter
est prominent educators from all parts o.
the country in the work to be done in the
Philippines.

Montpelier, VI.

Dear Str:-For your house, no matter
whaL's the matter with it-i5 isn't human
you know-a prescription:
Devoe lead and zinc. pply with a
brush, from one to three cOats-get paint
er to do it.
Your State chemist knows all about De-
voc: has snaly zed it; reports it pu Q; will
snalyze it occasionally. He buys it wher-
ever he likes-it is generally in the best
psint-store in Town.
You know what the color and dryer are
for; 40 you know what the lead and zinc
and oil are for? being a painter, you
may not choose to know; but we'll tell you.
Lead and zinc and oil combine to form a
rubbery waterproof coat to keep out damp
ness. That's the whole business.
The oil would do it alone; lead and oil
would do it, without the zinc; zinc and oil
without the lead; but the three together
are best, because they wear best.
We say TO Won, get painter" as we'd
say TO him get a doctor"-everY man to
his trade Can't all be painters and doc
tors; don't want to.
You will be m re successful in prosper
GUS looking house: and he in good health.
Take good care OF one another.
Yours truly,
f. W. DEvoE & Co.
