vermont,s Forestry Interests

Notice recently appeared in these
columns of a forestry conference OF
much possible significance for Vermont's
betterment 1t was convened for the
consideration of the forestry conditions
and needs of the State by the Governor
and the gentlmen selected by him to
represent Vermont at the White House
conference on the preservation Of ma.
tional resources, the State Forestry
commission and the officers Of the For
eatry Association of Vermont.
After the report of the Governor and
his committee as to their ideas gained
at Washington there was general dis
cussion which revealed the unanimous
opinion that there is urgent need for
a larger development along the lines
Of forest protection and other phases
Of scientific forestry in Vermont, and
that this should be primarily under
State rather than National auspices.
One immediate outcome of the con-
ference was the appointment Of a

Cheap Advertising Scheme

The Glidden automobile tourists have

automobile drivers employed by the
manufacturers, engaged in a very cheap
advertising scheme But the people

AMERICAN ATHLETIC SUPREMACY

AMERICAN ATHLETIC SUPREMACY.
Since the close of the Olympic games
last week in London, the English sport
ing world has had to revise its opinions
largely concerning American athletics,
and, indeed, Americans themselves were
agreeably surprised by the results at
tanned by their representatives That a
brilliant victory has been won by the
men who participated under the Stars

score the meet. A very large majority
Of the points in the field events, which
events alone were considered by the
unitd States as properly belonging to
the contest, were won by the American
representatives. Another evidence Of
the undoubted superiority of the Amer.

II the reports be true, the state fire
mems association is deteriorating to a
sad degree. Here is the testimony of
the Middlebury Register, in whose town
the last tournament of the association
was held: With all due respect to the
officers and most of the membership of
the association, it must be stated that
this years meet was not success from
every standpoint. While the crowd was
not large, there was just enough OF the
rougher element along to detract from
the real enjoyment and profit OF the
tournament. Internal dissensions, too,
have evidently crept into the association
If only part Of the rumors are true,
and the deeadence of what naturally
should be most useful organization is
apparent. 1t would be a distinct loss
to the state if the association were TO
degenerate into cheap junketing enter
prise, and tournaments to exhibitions OF
uncouthness. Paid municipal fire depart
ments have supplanted the volunteer
companies in the large centers; but there
is, and will be, broad field for the
volunteer fire departments. Nearly ev-
cry year most communities see enough
of the good work of the 6re-addies to
appreciate them to the full And it
would be with feeling of genuine re-
gret that the public would note the de-
cay or disruption of the state sssocia-
ton"

The announcement is also interesting as
showing that the New Yorker is losing
