lowed suit, till frow many schools
have no intermission between 9
o'clock and 10, or from to $40 or
4 o'clock. 1t is noticeable that
with this innovation have come
more calls Tor the DOCTOR, and less
good appetites. Three hours IS al
together too long to require grow
iffg children to sit ia school room
without fresh air or exercise. Even
grown people would kick If The
same conditions were imposed on
them, and they are far more able to
stand 1t than children.
The EXAMINER has condemned
the policy in this city, and it has
been condemned by The great bulk
of doctors and writers adj over the
country. But the fashion seems to
atiek~in certain places in spite of
protests. Until the fathers and
mothers, who have to nurse the
sick children and pay the doctor
bills, take the matter into their own
hands and knock this foolishness
out ofsthe schools, by knocking out
those who perslst.in keeping it in
vogue, it will not be checked.
Teachers are hired to teach the
children what they can learn with
safety to 4heirshealth, and not 10
weaken the mind by weakening the
physical body.
This ''crowding" business has be.

and children, and the EXAMINER
proposes TO keep on bringing the
matter to the peoples minds until
they arouse themselves unitedly and
demand wholesome reforms along
these lines.

The Pushing Process .

1t is beconing.more evident every
day that the public schools OF Amer
lea are the breeders of physical de-
cay in the rising generations.
While they are loading the children's
brains with 'shigherr learning and-a
great quantity Of it, theyfare sap
ping the health and rninlng the con-
stitutlons Of the bodies Of the little
folks. This decay can be seen
everywhere, even right here I'm
Montpelier. Nearly one-fourth the
children one meets on the street
wear glasses. Another fourth are
.puny, spindle.legged, hollow-eyed,
.dyspeptics, and SO on. While all
of this cannetebe charged up to the
public school system, -ssst HOW ex-
lists, still much of it can. Little
girls can be found who are already
nervous wrecks, and others are de-
tveleping 1nto 'docsor bills" as fast
as possible, and > great deal faster
than they should.
Not content with the crowding
and pushing of children through
books, as isnow done in the schools,
innovations along other lines have
been introduced, which are positive
ly detrimental to health and calcu-
listed to land the bulk of the child
.reaa into manhood and wonanhood,
physical wrecks. One of these is
the abolition of the recess system.
Some hair4brained, educated shallow
pated theorist down east, who had
evidently forgotten that he was
ever child, concluded that the
giving of "a recess tO the school
children, was a relic of barbarisna
and stumbling block to the so
called higher education. So he

Now that the annual retail liqu@r
license is raised to $1,000, why not ex-
act a comparatively equal tax upon
that kindergarten for the saloon, the
so-called Temperance Hall? More
complaint comes from tolerating such
joints than all the saloons put to-
gether, and the small revenue now de-
rived therefrom amounts to nothing.
There should be at least $500 license
or they should be prohibited. The
seeds that are now being sown among
our little boys and young men will
bring an influence to be felt in our
town in the coming years, and it is a
grave question whether money in any
sum justitiss the existence OF what is
known as the Temperance hall" The
foundation for the future character OF
the town and community is now be-
ing laid, and will be what we choose
to make it. Minors frequent these
places, and an ordinance supposed to
govern the same is openly violated.
Ii the necessary evil must be main
tanned public sentiment is that it
should be conducted under proper re.
strictions and q tax in keeping with
the questionable business lie collected

ATTRIBUTES OF SUCCESS.

There is but one straight road to sue
cess, and that is merit. The man who is
successful is the man who is useful. Ca
pacity never lacks opportunity. 1t can
not remain undiscovered, because it is
sought by too many anxious to utilize it.
"A capable man on earth is more valuable
than any precious deposit under the
earth, and the object of n much more
vigilant search. Whoever undertakes to
build house, cultivate farm, to work
mine, to obtain relief from pain, to main
tain legal controversy, or to perform
any function Of civilized life, is actively
searching for other men qualified to aid
him. To appreciate the thoroughness of
the search it is necessary only to realize
the number of persons engaged in all
these pursuits and undertakings through
out the world From such a search no
form of ability can remain concealed. If
the possessor of capacity thought to hide
himself he would be discovered and in
duced to employ his ability for the bene-
fit Of those who need it.
To be successful, then, one has but to
qualify himself thoroughly for some oc-
cupation. Every man has some natural
aptitude. In these days the training by
which natural aptitude is developed into
effective ability can be obtained by every
youth. No man can hope to be the best
in any field of labor, but every one can
hope to- be among the best. Time occu-
pied in worrying about opportunities
openings and starts is time wasted, be-
cause to every capable man Start"
and an opportunity" are always fur
nished by the necessities of all other men.

The ideas of game and forestry pro-
lection which were the subject of
much ridicule not many years ago,
has advanced so far us to demand
large appropriations by the govern
ment in order to sustain nucleus Of
that beauty nature so freely endowed
the earth. 1t might be well to i'm
press upon the mind OF the individual
hunter when he fain would try his
Workmanship at time when the law
iorbids, that the feathery fowls, the
shiny fish and the powerful denizens
OF the forest are not plentiful but
that in many instances are disappear
ing altogether. Our wise law makers
have seen that the destroying spirit
OF man would soon work sad havoc
with the wild game, and have tried in
Il measure to prevent wholesale
slaughter, but it rests with that innate
fire OF man to see and enjoy freedom
which cutivates the instincts of
preservation of those objects that so
often illustrates the tender sentiments
and noble virtues thai belong to man.
Again, in agricultural districts the
running OF many fine forests and
stately trees and beautiful verdure for
mercenary purposes has led to the
advocating of strong force in the
matter of saving fine specimens OF
foliage that otherwise would fall
victims to he who turns a deaf car
when conscience smites him with the
tender and sympathetic thought ex-
pressed in that choice verse, "Wood-
man, Spare That Tree"
