Congressman Foster, who has shown
great interest in the object, says in
writing to the officers of the Vermont
Forestry association, under recent
date, that he does not believe it will be
possible to secure action on the bill at
this session as the matter is still in the
hands of the judiciary committee, and
Speaker Cannon is understood from
other sources to be strenously opposed
to the project. Burlington Free Press.

our country has been engaged. 1t is
recognized as one of the important
committees of the house and a hard
worked one. One bill for instance
which Mr.. Haskins introduced in Janu-
airy, had 1924 items involving over

bill it required examination into the
decisions of the court of claims in each

In a special message to congress
last week President Roosevelt urged
the building of four large new battle
ships by the United States, holding
China up as an example of ''peace at
any price" doctrine, and the British
policy of readiness makes peace
was warmly commended. The bill was
defeated by congress and only two bat
tleships ordered built.

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.

There has been a lively interest
throughout New England in the fate
of the bill in Congress aiming to estab-
lish a national forest reserve in the
White Mountains. The manufacturing
interests along the Connecticut river
have supported the matter as strongly
as possible for the sake Of preserving
the headwaters of streams in that re-
gion which supply their water power.
The New England congressional dele
cations have consistently worked for
the measure.

We commend to the careful reading
by the voters of the second district
the article elsewhere published in the
Monitor last week. published from the
Brattleboro Phoenix stating some facts
about the congressional contest which
was formally opened last week. Editor
French shows conclusively that some
statements made by the Mortified
News were incorrect, and states. other
important facts with reference to Mr..
Haskins of which Vemonters have little
knowledge. AS is we'll known to our
readers, Congressman Haskins is chair
man of the committee on war claims
where he has been of great service
both to his country and his state.
This committee now has under con-
sideration some 5000 bills involving
more than $50, 1000, 900, and it requires
constant hard work to sift out the
dross and recommend only the worthy
claims The committee do not pro-
pose to have the government defraud-
ed by unjust and illegal claims grow

It is probable that the widows pen
sion bill will pass the house and SEN
ate as it has been favorably reported
by the house committee. The measure
provides that all widows who were
married prior to June 81, 1890, shall
receive pensions at the rate of SIP a
month. Widows of Mexican and Indian
war veterans, as we'll as the widows
of soldiers of the Civil war, are bene-
fciaries. 1t is estimated that 1874, 900
widows of Civil war soldiers will re-
ceive pensions under the proposed law,
and that the measure will add about
$4,000, 900 to the pension roll.

That's good idea of Principal
Stannard of Barton Academy. who took
his class in civics to the Orleans county
seat to study, frst-hand, the details
Of civil government there worked out.
The party visited all the officers of the
county and the government service,
after which they were addressed
briefly by various officials. Seeing is
believing, and it makes a much more
lasting impression than reading out of
books. barre Times.
1t is a good idea and worthy of such
progressive educator as Stannard.
The Messenger believes a great deal of
practical good could be accomplished
in the training of the young citizens in
the public schools if this idea were
developed into system Of teaching
civics by such object lessons from town
and village government all through the
various ramifications from county to
district to state to the national author
ity at Washington.
There is surprising amount of
ignorance IN respect of the common
place details of the administration of
these various spheres of government in
this country, and that, too, among a
class of young men that have appar-
emily had exceptional advantages in
the way of high school education and
perhaps even more. The schools
could be the training places for citi-
zenship in very literal and profitable
sense if by the employment of such
object lessons outside and inside their
walls the machinery and the purposes
of government could be made real anc
understandable to these future voters
and taxpayers. -St. Adams Messenger
We often fail to appreciate local me1
and things that happen right at home
This trip of Mr.. STANDARDS has beer
heralded as a new practical educativt
idea that is worth the attention O.
other educators. Indeed we believe tn,
students who took that trip know a.
much about application of civic laws
as a result of the trip, as the averag
voter in the state, and more tina
many, and received more real light i
that day than from a study O
text books a whole school year. Prac
teal education is the real educatio
that counts to-day.
