The outlook for Vermont industries
seems to be quite encouraging. The
Genin Automatic Train Pipe Coupler
Mfg. company have had issued charter

at 100000, and will begin operations
shortly in st. Adams, the home town of
the inventor. j. B. Genin. The device
seems thoroughly practical and the start.
ing of the business of making it will be
of substantial benefit to the thriving
town.
Along with this comes the cheering
news that large milk factory is soon to
locate in Enosburg Falls, which has a
capital stock of 100000, all paid in
Provision is being made for using the
milk of 5000 cows. This concern will
be right up to date and will employ al
least so hands as soon as the factory is
built.
Down the line, in Vernon, neal
Brattleboro, the dams have been raised
so that they now develop about % DOC
horsepower, or nearly double the head
obtained year ago. When it is consid
cred what this amount of power is able
to accomplish, there is indeed cause fol
an optimistic feeling to take possession
of Vermonters. The Green Mountain
State has many other resources, and il
may be stated with confidence that these
al
be vastly increased in short time.

WHAT'S a Watt7

In the electrical world one hears and
reads great deal about watts" The
current is measured by watts; the mach
inery is rated by watts; lamps burn by
watts. To the ordinary layman all this
talk of waits" is as mystifying as the
death of the late Akhood of Swat.
The man to whom we owe the idea of
the horsepower was a Scottish inventor,
James Watt, and when the electric unit
involving the idea of working capacity
was chosen to indicate this unit, just as
that of Volta has given us the term volt
and Faraday the farad.
Watt considered that taking the aver
age, London dray horse was capable of
doing the work of lifting $4,000 pounds
through one foot of distance in one min.
ute of time, against gravity. The intro
duction of this time limit, the minute,
gave the unit of power or the rate of per.
forming work. This or its equivalent
has ever since been called a horsepower
The electrical unit called the watt is
capable of being represented in terms OF
the Horsepower, and in the form it is per
haps more Ineligible to those who are
familiar with mechanical rather thar
with electrical expressions. The electri
cal watt is the product of volts multiplied
by amperes, where the volt is the unit of
electrical pressure and the ampere is the
unit measuring the density or volume
of an electrical current.
Careful experiments have demonstrate
ed that TAG watts per second, are equal tC
$50 foot-pounds per second, or to state
the equation in its usual form, TAG watts
equal one horsepower. The form in
which electrical power is generally sole
is computed on the basis of kilowatt
hours. The prefix kilo comes from the
Greek Chilioi, one thousand. A kilo
watt, written also k. W., is therefore 1000
watts. The kilowatt hour is the perfor
nance or work at such a rate that 100(
watts per second shall be delivered con
tinuously for one hour.
The kilowatt- hour has special interes
for the man who has his Office or house
lighted by electric lamps, because the

draw long breath through the nostrils;

SEARCH ABANDONED
Ba' Children Not Believed to Be In
Vicinity OF Brockton


Brockton, Mass, Dec. 16.-There
have been absolutely no new develop
ments in the case Of the missing Ball
and City Marshal Kingman
says that he is as much in the dark con-
corning their whereabouts as a man
who has made no investigation what
ever. Owing to Saturdays snowfall
no attempt has been made to continue
the search, and it is probable that for
the present it will be suspended, so far
as the woods and other places for con-
eealment in this vicinity are concerned.
Nothing has yet been developed to
convince the officials that the children
are dead, although they were earlier in
clined to that opinion. One theory has
been advanced that they may have been
sent to Scotland, where Mrs. Ball has a
brother, but inquiry of various steam.
ship lines has resulted in no evidence
that such is the fact.
1t Is hoped that the condition Of Mrs
Ball, who is now in the Taunton insane
asylum, will improve sufficiently to en-.
able her to tell the true story Of the
children's disappearance.

GREAT WORK
J. N. Lsrned, Historian, Produces
Valuable History Of Original
Desiqn.

In finding this widely inclusive title
page introducing, not a monumental
work in fifty great volumes, but two
books of ordinary size, each containing
less than 500 pages, one realizes that j.
N. Larned, the historian, has attempted
a work of unprecedented literary con-
densation. and turns the leaves half
doubtingly, in spite of the authority car
ried by the authors name.
But as one reads doubt is replaced by
interest and wonder, for the work has
been we'll done, and stands monument
not only to its writer's ability, but to the
spirit of the age which desires even its
culture served quickly that it may find
time for its endless businesses.
'The Rise and Fall of Nations" more
over, is not alone a history for busy
man. All students and thinkers may be
aided through its agency in crystallizing
aud clarifying their historical knowledge;
in adjusting proportions and values; in
securing the sweeping view of the grand
trend of the life of mankind that can
not be obtained by the ordinary student
from detached reading of many different
authors.
The vast bulk of matter which Mr.
Larned handles has been arranged with
illuminating discrimination, and by the
ingenious plan which, so far as the writer
knows, is new, an unusual appreciation
of the influence of individuals upon his
tory is forced upon the reader.
The volumes are beautifully illustrated
the pictures giving an outline history OF
art almost as comprehensive in its way
as the text. The work is thoroughly and
lucidy indexed. The publishers are the

No more pleasing sight is to be seen
than the long lines of rosy-cheeked lads
and lassies that throng daily through the
streets on their way to and from school.
But the beauty of the scene is marred
when the lads take to throwing hard
snowbals as swift as they can while go
ing through crowded Main street and
across the stone bridge, where the pas
sage is necessarily limited. Those who
are obliged to wear eyeglasses realize
to the full what a menace a swift snow
ball is when thrown by strong boy.
A case in hand is that of a young lady
wearing glasses who was struck in the
eye, breaking her glasses and cutting
her lids so badly that she had to be taken
to doctor. Wholesome sport is all
right, but snowballing on the main
streets is as much out of place as bull

The New Education.

or yore the educator was wont to look
at the work-a-day world from afar, and
somewhat askance. At college he had
passed from the students desk to tutor

He was accustomed to regard men and
things chiefly as depicted in books, tab
ulated in statistics, or reported in the
proceedings of legislatures and courts.
How the college looked from the outside,
wherein it failed to prepare its graduates
for the toll and tug of actual life, he
knew not. And thus usually the college
stats of generation ago were leaven in.

corner, secluded from the lump. In con.
trast to these aloof educators of times
past are thousands teachers through
out the technical and agricultural schools
of America today. They stand for rev
olution profoundly affecting all Other
schools. Not many years ago all boys
were educated as if to become clerks, OF
pass to the professions of law, the minis
try, or medicine. But most boys must
earn their bread at farming or railroad
ing, in the;factory or workshop; why not
therefor, begin at school to teach how
these life tasks may be performed faith
fully and well? And why not also, bring
out the significance of these tasks, in
volving as they do principles of the high
