SOMETHING ABOUT THE BOSTON
ASSOCIATION WHICH VISITS
US IN AUGUST.

Inasmuch as the members of the
Vermont association of Boston are to
make their ANIMAL pilgrimage to their
native state during Old Home Week
in August next, with st. Johnsbury
and Newport as their objective points,
it may not be amiss to give some in
formation concerning this association.
The association was first organized in
a small way az early az 1859 by native
born Vermonters resident In Boston.
or the number who were the origina-
tors and frat members, only one is
now living, James N. Frye, native
OF Concord, and senior member of the
well-known hardware house of Frye,
Phipps, & Co., of Pearl street. Mr..
Frye is still a very active and most
enthusiastic member and supporter of
the association, and while well ad-
vanced in years, no one enjoys its
gatherings and trips to the old home
state more than he. The breaking
out OF the war Of the rebellion soon
after the association was formed,
sadly iuterfered with its work, but
later on it was taken up, and at the
present time 1t has an actual member
ship of more than four hundred, all
composed of Vermonters or sons of
Vermonters.
For some time past there has been
feeling among it's members, its
growth being 40 rapid, that it would
be a great advantage, could the asso-
citation have a permanent home or
headquarters, and in December, 1902, a
committee to whom was referred the
matter of conducting the affairs of the
association on broader lines, reported
to the association, recommending the
procuring of suitable rooms with
bureau OF Information, and the placing
on file OF all Vermont newspapers anc
periodicals. The procuring OF suct
rooms In the right location was not al
easy proposition, but the Vermonter
were equal TO the task and as a result
the association is firmly establishes
in Hotel Westminster, q modern an
one of the finest hotels in the city
and beautifully situated on Cople
square, than which there is no NOR
charming spot in the entire city, an
may well be said, in this country
Around and facing this square, are tn
famous Boston Public Library, the Al
Museum, and the New and Old Sout
churches, the Massachusetts, School
Technology and other attractlv
buildings. On the first floor in III
Westminster, the association has
fine suite OF rooms, handsomely ful
nished, which are open each ds
and evening and where someone ma
always be found to welcome visitor
Ali the newspapers and periodica
of Vermont are here on file, and upc
the walls are the portraits of We

warm welcome always extended, al
such pleasant surroundings and HON
like hcenes and faces, a Vermont
can only be made to feel very mu
at home. These headquarters are n
intended solely for the use and NEE

pestroyers of Character.

So we'll known is this fact of uncon- scious alteration, and so painful has been his experience of it's effects, that one of our best known United States senators has made it a rule to refuse all applica- tions for verbal interview. He has been so often misrepresented unintentionally that when an interviewer comes to him he always says: Write your questions clearly and distinctly upon paper. Then I will write my answers and you must print them as 1 give them to you. I do this so that there may be no misunder- standing between us" There are many social falsehoods floating about every community, not because nelghbors have deliberately lied against neighbors, but because when gossip starts her work the statements made in reference to a mans character by oft repetition often unintentionally become malformed and astanic and character destroying mon strosities
 Social fasehoods are prevalent every where. How are we to guard against them? First and foremost. by not malS- ing ourselves a medium for tileir propa- gation. An aspersion on man charGc- ter, once started, is passed rom lip to lip until the whole community hears it.. But the calumny. often undeseryed might be stopped by the observation of a simple rule. Never believe any evil ru- mor." my father said. you may hear against your neighbor Never believe it unless you have positively heard the evil confession from the mans own lips. ard even then you must hope there is soma mistake about it." Never allo youf SC If to listen to any maligner of an innocent mans life and thereby make yourself a party in the crime. NeTer allow ynrr i'm perfect memory to transmit what .Gle gos sipcrs and scandal mongers may revel m. A fatal lie. like a wolf in sheep's cloth ing, sometimes attempts 10 robe itself in the garments of sincerity. Bu. by the execution of the two falsifiers of my text we know that God will condemn us when we repeat an evil report against our neighbors unless we positively and with out any peradventure know that what we say is trlle.

STARTING TiE DAY RIGHT.
The First Half Hour Often the Hardest
 Part of the Twenty-four.
From the New York Times.

From the New York Times
 The first half hour of the day Is often
 the hardest part of the whole twenty
 four hours particularly to workingmen
 Many awake depressed and insufficient ly rested. If seems almost impossible
 to rise and go about the duties of the day. The hours drag and work which should be done easily is a burden. be- cause the day was not rightly begun.
 A business woman who Is a tremen- dous worker and who always seems equal to her tasks. was recently asked how she managed to do so much and yet keep so well.
 Tt is all owing to the ounce of preven- ton which take in the morning." she re- piled. Believe me. 1t ls better than a pound of cure taken later in the day always make it point of starting the day right. I never hurry in the morning. no matter how much I may rush during the day, and I always have something
 to stay my stomach, as the old-fash-
 toned people say. before 1 get up.' Do you have your breakfast in bed?' NO. Indeed But I do take my ounce

was apparent-or ought to have been apparent-to all upright and thoughtful business men that the wind and water in the Morgan schemes would ultimately lead to a collapse.
 But the public in general paid no heed to the intrinsic dishonesty and fallacy of the undertakings evolved by the chief of all of the Wall street captains for the en- richment of their promoters at the ex- pense of credulous investors. As long as the arch adventurer in the American world of finance was successful, he was lauded as a prodigy of sagacity and ex- plotted as a hero equal to the task of wholly revolutionizing certain important branches of business activity.
 Note the change now in the popular tone. Things are not going smoothly with Mr Morgan. He has been buffeted sorely by the storms in Wall street. and his erstwhile champions and admirers have turned to denounce him. Circum- stances have made plain what reason and judgment should have discerned from the first Morgan has been found out and for that there is no forgiveness and none of the gentle charity which certain people are always ready to exercise for crooked dealing as long as it can be made to win and can be protected against the crime of failure.

The Future of the Americas Cup.

From the New York World
 Had Sir Thomas Lipton won the Americas cup, he tells us in his Cos mopolitan article, American challengers anxious to retain it would have had to build for the purpose "an honest boat, healthy boat, real boat, to meet the defender on the other side"
 Now that a series of contests which have tested Shamrock III under all conditions short of reefed mainsails and the little jibs has demonstrated her inferiority, can anything be done to open future cup contests only to real boats, not to useless and dan gerous" racing machines?
 From 1885 up to 1890 the influence of cup-racing upon yacht-designing in general was wholly good. Though we were always victors, 1t was because we made the racing rules. We certain ly had more to learn. The absurdly narrow British cutter" model, brought down to a fiye-ton size. did furnish a safe and handy cruiser, with head room" and the possibility of comfort. Our own model of 1885, reduced in size, came to "skimming dish" whose cabin compelled a crouching attitude and was so cluttered by it's huge cen- terboard well as to be useless. The keel sloop of moderate beam, presently arrived at as a compromise between these types, was the finest cruising model ever devised-"an honest boat, a healthy boat real boat" Yachts. men remember 1t with regret
 How about the fin-keel monstrosity? Is it of use to yachting? It has been the bane of the sport. In the next size smaller than the cup racers the model produced the Newport seven ties" swift, dangerous, delicate, use- less. In smaller craft 1t yields "single-hander" very clever at racing, but of inconvenient draught for our shallow bays, hard to haul out, easy to strain, with dog-kennel for a cabin.
 The influence of cup-racing upon rules and customs Is tremendous. Cannot the deed of gift" of the America's cup be so altered as to cast that influence into the scale for the wholesome" boat?

Military officials who advocate the dumdum bullet are now contending that 1t is really a humane projectile. inas- much as 1t knocks man out once for all instead of boring a hole through him so minute that 1t does not interfere with his continuing the fight or returning to 1t after a brief absence at the field hos pital. It Is argued that the modern small caliber bule- is the one that is really inhumane. as 1t tends to proiong war This is an argument" says an aL- thority, that might appeal to the tax payer. but will hardly be accepted as convincing by those whose duty compels them to stand in front of flying projec- tiles.

God Abhors Lying.

Fire insurance adjusters meet with the same kind of lying. The man who has solemnly declared to the county commls- sioners that his personal holding are of little value discovers after they have been burned that they were worth a fortune and demands that the fire insurance com pany compensate him on that basis. False estimates and fraudulent misrepresenta- tions, whether made in the assessors of fee or to fire insurance adjuster or by the merchant to the customer or the customer to the merchant, all belong to the same category. They are lies. They are the utterances of false tongues, and .sod has recorded his abhorrence and his condemnation of all intentional verbal mis- representations Whether behind store counter or over church pulpit let your answers be yea, yea. and nay, nay" A lie is just as black and fatal tossed at

Business FaIsehoods.

Falsehoods in the business world: They nest and thrive especially we'll in the haunts of barter and gain. They greet you at the opened doors of our large de- partment stores. They pictorialze them selves In circulars and newspaper adver- tisements which are sent broadcast over the cities and country districts They pose in fictitious reports of our large cor porations and exaggerate the annual divi- dends. They have for their passports white slips of paper, purporting to repre- sent bona fide stock, whereas the gold and silver and copper mines are purely imaginary. They enthrone themselves in the pits of the produce exchanges. They finger the keys of the telegraph instru- ments when the breadstuffs are about to be cornered They are Just as much at home with the wholesale manipulator as with the retail dealer with the great cap italst as with the humble trader seated behind the counter of the little country store We have all felt upon our hot cheeks the baleful touch of their infec- tious breath. They ride down with us when we go shopping In the morning
 They come home with 'us when we turn our backs upon the glass offices at night
 Falsehoods in the business world They figure not only in the transactions of buy CTS and sellers. but in the declarations of the taxpayer. Here comes the county assessor. How much is your property worth? "Oh," you answer, if a farmer. mot much. hardly made a living off the place last year. My crops barely met ex- penses The house Y simply a white ele- phant' on my hands I would get rid of 1t if could Put it down, say, for s30O0 The assessor departs. About six months later a railroad corporation wishes to have the right of way through yonr property. The representative of that road comes to you. How much is your property worth?" "Oh." you answer. T do not want to sell under any conditions. This Is the finest farm land In all this region. Besides, the place has for me a sentiment tai as well as an intrinsic value My fa- ther was born here. My children were born here Well. If must, 1 must. That farm and that old homestead are worth at least S10.000. They are cheap al that" There are your two answers. Why the discrepancies? Why did you make one statement to the assessor and another to the railroad corporation? Did you lie first? Did you lie last? Did you lie both times
