BARRE, VT, APRIL 3, 1901

Springtime is here. The warm sun
and the April showers will soon wear
away the snow drifts and'a new world
will blossom out before US. Dame
Nature will don her gayer garments
and &c her share to make the Granite
City more beautiful. She will cover
the lawns with grass and gut forth
the foliage of the trees to cover up the
uasightliness of winters ravages.
But II the best results are reached art
must combine with nature. The city
can be made beautiful place to live
in by q very little effort on the part of
the property owners. And the prop
erty owners owe this to the commun-
ity. All over the country there is a
sense OF revolt at the characteristic
features of present day cities. Ugli-
ness and sordidness are felt to be in
indefensible contrast to the material
resources and moral standards Of the
age. European cities have always all
e to the beautiful and picturesque.
American cities are slouchy and care
less Of appearances. Only by educa-
tion, only by line upon line and pre-
cept upon precept can public inter-
est in the beautiful be cultivated.
Self interest ought to suggest to the
property owner the necessity Of his
contribution toward the identifying
Of the city. A neatly kept yard, back
and front, touch Of paint here and
there, a few shrubs, fuliage-all these
add to the value Of property i'm.
mensely. Uninviting property will
not sell readily. If the property
owner is not moved by public spirit be
should be affected by private interest.
Nature has done much for Barre, more
than for most cities, but II natures
work is supplemented by the judicious
cooperation Of citizens the city will
be improved many fold. Let us be-
gin soon to make Barre a beautiful
city to live in.

Some critics are finding fault with
the "powers that b." because there
is talk of promoting General Funston
TO Brigadier General Of regulars.
Their opposition is based upon the
grounds that officers In the regular SER
vice are more deserving Of promotion as
a matter Of principle. To an outsider
such an argument appears too narrow
for tolerance. True merit may be
appropriately rewarded at any time.
There were plenty of regular army Of
ficers in the Philippines who had the
same opportunities as those which
Funston enjoyed and yet it remained
for the volunteer to accomplish the
real mission Of the whole army.

to the energy and ability OF General
Rafael Reyes, who was the hrst to eX-
plore that region OF Colombia known
as Caqueta, and, with his brothers and
his nephew, he made the first overland
journey ever accomplished across the
widest part OF South America. through
a region completely desert and I'M
known at that time and inhabited by
cannibal savages. They crossed first
the Andes and then explored the riv-
ers which run into the Amazon. After
this FIRST journey his two brothers died
one from fever and one was assassi-
mated and eaten by the cannlbals.
