PROCTOR, Vt. August 81, 1907
Up In the foothills of the Green noun
tains Senator Proctor has a model village
OF about $500 inhabitants surrounding the
quarries of the Vermont Marble Company,
which owned exclusively by him, his
sons and group of young men he has
brought up in the business and has pro-
NOTED and taken into partnership from time
to time on the basis of merit and efficiency.
Several unique things about the village of
Proctor are worthy of the study of sociol-
ogists and political economists, who as a
rule, are inclined to overlook successful ex-
perlments of this sort and to confine their
attention to crticising the failures. l have
a theory that If we would look more eager
ly for the good there is in this world and
screen the evil as much as possible from
public view 1t would be better for all of
If the newspapers, for example, were to
print the kind and charitable acts men do
under sensational headlines and hide the
horrors, the crimes and the lnJusticeS OF
mankind in the most obscure columns, there
would be less misery and people would imi-
tate the good rather than the bad that
do.
influence of Yellow Journals.
When / asked the superintendent of the
Boys Club which Mr. E II. Hartman is
supporting down on the East Side of New
York what was the worst influence the
youngsters of that section were exposed TO,
he replied promptly:
"The yellow journals"
Are they worse than the sa.oons?" l in
quired.
Infinitely worse" was his reply, be
cause they give the boys suggestion con-
corning crime, vice and mischief they never
would think of otherwise and make heroes
OF criminals and the vicious. Everybody
loves notoriety. There is fascination about
seeing your name in print. and down among
our population here a man who is written
up in the newspapers, particularly If his
picture is printed, ranks as a hero, regard
less of the reasons for the publication.
This effect is stronger upon boys from
twelve to fifteen years of age than at any
other time Of their lives, and therefore the
yellow journals which devote their columns
70 the publication of sensations exercise
the most pernicious influence we have to
deal with
If the socialists and others who are con-
tinualy denouncing the greed of corpora
tons and heartlessness of the rich would
seek for examples of the good that they
have done instead of the evil and com

that 1t would be multiplied and more prac-
teal good would be accomplished. 1 told

HER PROTEST STRONG
Army Officers Wife Criticised
Col. H0Wze'S Order.
A WEST POINT INCIDENT
Young Women Had to Doff Cadet
Overcoats.
THE WEATHER WAS BLUSTERY
Investigation Of Criticisms by Mrs.
G. G. Ayres Being Conducted
by Col. Mills.
THE WEATHER WAS BLUsTERY

According to an unofficial report from
West Point. N. Y, an army officers wife
Is the subject of a formal investigation by.
the War Department She is Mrs. Elizabeth
Fairfax Ayres wife of Lieut.. Col. Charles
G. Ayres of the 9Th Cavalry. The inquiry
Is said to have been ordered by Secretary
Taft at the suggestion of President Roose-
welt, and is being conducted by Col. Ste
phen C. Mills Of the inspector generals de-
partment. The now historic cadet over
coat incident at West Point Easter Sun
day is at the bottom of the AFFAIR
Although no formal charges have been
framed against Mrs. Ayres, the fnvestiga-
ton will have to do with criticisms alleged
to have been made by her upon Col. Rob-
ert Lee Howe, commandant Of cadets
at West Point, as a result of that incl
dent.

matters such this, but the officer him .
self is responsible to a certain degree for
her actions.
day, when a large crowd of visitors was
present, that Col. Howe observed among
them a score or more OF young women
wearing cadets overcoats. The weather was
raw and blustery.
Col. Howze's Order.
AS all the cadets have two uniform coats.
their geneosity did not mar the beauty OF
the parade, but as the regulations Of the
Military Academy prohibit cadets from
loaning their coats or any other portions of
their uniforms at any time or under any
circumstances. Col. Howe took immediate
action by ordering one Of the police SER
geants of the academy to request the young
women to remove the coats forthwith The
order was obeyed, but not without resent
ment from the cadets as well as from the
young women one of the loudest in protest.
1t Is said. being a daughter of Mrs. Ayres
Mrs. Ayres Is Fairfax OF Virginia.
and has q son in the cadet corps of the
academy. 1t is said she was most out
spoken.
Mrs. Ayres' Protest.
This was reported to the War Depart
ment, but meantime Mrs. Ayres had writ
ten to President Roosevelt, Gen. ]. Frank
lin Bell chief of staff. and other high Of
ficials of the department, and apparently
she did not spare Col Howe In her criti-
