More Surprises Probable.

The suggestion of the Ludlow Trib-
une that the law against selling tobac-
co to minors be enforced along with
that against liquor selling, has been
state press. We may reasonably look
for more surprises in line with the Brat
tleboro enforcement. There is surely
plenty of opportunity to spring them.
Boys-small boys, too,-may be seen
on the streets Of every large village in
the state, putting cigarettes. Where do
they get them? The laws against SELL
ing tobacco and liquor to minors are
reasonable and just. They are based
on certain physiological facts and are
for the good Of both individuals and
No one questions their
They should certainly not
be classed with the "deterrents." If
the masculinity Of the state must steep
itself in narcotics and stimulants, there
is time enough at maturity to do it.
Parents should insist on the enforce
ment Of these laws in the case Of their
own boys and should see to 1t that the
latter grow to manhood with brain and
nerves clear and normal.
The Bellows Falls Times says, In re-
gard to youthful smokers in that vii
age:
What are the parents of these young
men doing? Are they encouraging
them to make public nuisances Of
themselves. injure their health and ask
dealers to violate the law? If so, there
IS nothing more to be said. If parents
plead that they don't know what their
Boys are doing, they are just as guilty
rs though they did know. for 1t is their
business to know"

Cartoonists are again employing
themselves upon the personal peculiar
tiles of the president and many pro-
tests are being made by people who
think the highest office in our country
should have about 1t enough of public
respect and national dignity to pro-
tect the man who fills it from open
ridicule 1t is a little unpleasant for
Cleveland or Benjamin Harrison to be
unable to connect with these names
mental visions of anything but a fat
man with a gun and a string of ducks
and a thin man nearly obiterated by
an enormous hat; but this is what car
toonists of the past have brought us
to. Is anybody to-day able to think
Of President Roosevelt without the
glittering preliminary of teeth and eye
glasses? Many cartoons published in
the modern newspaper are of doubtful
value in any sense and in execrably
bad taste; but that's the worst of them
they're not pleasant. The intelligent
judgment of the people of the United
States is not appreciably affected by
them. On the other hand the cartoon |
has mission which it has admirably |
filled and will continue to fill in de- |
plotting, as words could not do for |
popular enlightenment, public wrongs |
and political situations. If properly |
done, they are quick and sure edu-
Gators. We must trust to the dis
elimination of the American people to
absorb the good which cartoonists offer
and to reject the bad

Good Work Appreciated.
[St. Adams Messenger.l

1t is a good sign that the proper use
of the press is more and more appre-
ciated in Vermont every year. 1t is
a good sign that Vermont newspapers
keep pegging away at this matter Of
a caucus law. 1t is good sign that
they keep the public scrutiny fastened
upon the operation of the new liquor
law. 1t indicates that the press of
Vermont is abreast of the times, that
it has a proper sense of it's own re-
sponsibiity and its own power, and
that 1t is determined to hold up before
the people of Vermont the true image
of their own political social, and
moral necessities until they have sup

methods and looking wistfully back to
the old ways. as to a good old friend
from whom we have become estranged.
It is undeniable that those stern old
methods had vigor and robustness
that modern ways, with all their beau
tiful interest. lack. The Journal says:
The Brattleboro Reformer expresses
wholesale truth in this article and
it might be well for some of our ad-
vanced educators tC ponder 1t with
care. There has been a disposition to
take up many new tangled ideas just
because they are new. The latest is
not always the best. When we dis
cover that old methods are inadequate
the conclusion has generally been
reached only by thoughtful study.
But just as much thought and study
must be bestowed upon that which is
to replace the old. Enthusiasts and
theorists have had too much to do with
our educational methods for the last
few years. The vertical penmanship
fad is only one instance of their folly.
We are half inclined to think there was
as much real benefit derived from the
old fashioned classic selections, as the
pupils nowadays get out of any number
of supplementary readers dealing with
botany and zoology. We believe in
training the child's observation, but
how many of our high school scholars
have ever been inspired by 'Horatius
1t the Bridge" and "Spartacus to the

New Ways Not Always Best.

The Lyndonville Journal agrees with
the Reformer on the subject of
"Muddling School Methods" recently
discussed in these columns. We are
reaching for better things and we re-
place old methods by new in the hope of
finding for our children larger oppor-
tunities for advancement, mentally,
morally and physically. than we have
had. But new ways, new places, new
friends, are not always best. They
must be tried and tested thor
oughly before judgment can be
passed upon them. 1t is because re-
suits in the education of our children
are not satisfactory; because so many
graduates of our public schools are
found to lack the most necessary prac-
teal knowledge, and not because we
are anxious to criticise present meth
DDS or educators, that public sentiment
is turning against the new school

mum sentence. The state is fortu-
nate, especially just at this time when
public feeling is demanding exactly
this sort of action, in having in Judge
Haseton the right man in the right
place 1t is a pity more such men
could not be had at all times and in
