Champaign.

The following article on Cham
plain was usbmitted by Mitchell W.
Hinsdale, the son of Mr.. Hinsdale,
who represented st. George in the
last legislature:
Yes It's Champlain whom we are
honoring,
This day of feast and gathering,
While many come from far and near,
To celebrate his memory.
For if his name was left undis-
turbed,
The people of Vermont would soon
forget,
The Hero of Champlain.
oh, yes, twas he, who first did ride
The pride of all Vermont.
He came along with sails unified
In a strange appearing craft,
Strongly built, but rudely fashioned
to those,
Who had never seen its like before.
But what would Champlain now say
To see the appearance of our lake
today?
He would surely say, a change in
deed!
How different from while ago,
When this populated habitation,
Was nothing but a naked wood,
But then, change of men, and a
length of time,
Bring changes of a superior kind.
Twenty times did he cross the broad
Atlantic,
But he neither sought gold nor
worldwide fame,
He merely came as an adventurer, y
To find what others never had found,
And to know what others never had
before known,
And so in this way we now do hon
or to his name;
Which shall be handed down to all
posterity,
AS one who possessed grand traits
and qualities,
A name that never will be forgotten
in old Vermont,
The name of Samuel Champlain.

Resolved, that women should vote

have equal opportunity to declare
their convictions on all that relates
to the public welfare at the ballot
box.
Resolved, that we ask for a con-
stitutional amendment at the legis-
lature of 1910, which shall enable
women to vote on equal terms with
men.
Resolved, that the best interests of
labor require the admission of wo-
men to full citizenship as matter
of justice and as a necessary step
towards insuring and raising the
scale of wages for ALL
Resolved, that we extend our
hearty thanks to Mr.. Henry B.
Blackwell of Boston for again COM
ing to our assistance and doing so
much toward making the Vermont
convention helpful to the cause;
that the hanks of the convention be
extended to the Methodist Episco-
pal church for giving us the use of
its commodious building, to those
who made the evening meeting in
teresting with music and recitation,
and to the people Of Barre who en-
tertained the delegates.

not care to have her back! Then more
tears.
She began a letter to Ezra when
there was a strange, heavy step on the
rickety stairs which was yet curiously
familiar. She stood up, listening. She
was very pale. Opening the door in
response to the knock, she stood fac
ing her husband.
"Ezra!' she faltered weakly.
Edna, my dear, couldn't stand life
without you any longer"
She fell into his arms to be strained
to his heart while she sobbed:
"Oh, Ezra, ! am SO unhappy! l am
a failure. My books are good for moth
ing. They are not true. l was writ
ing to you to ask you--to go home"
Then they sat and talked Of the dear
old ranch and many other things.
Edna noticed something new, more
alert, deeper and stronger in Ezra's
manner and dimly fancied he used
much better language than before and
chose his words with more discrimina-
ton.
She showed him the extract in the
paper from the book that had made
her so homesick.
what will you say, Edna, when 1
tell you that / wrote that book? i
was so lonesome after you went that
l thought I'd study some to pass the
time | had q teacher up on the
ranch four years, and then l kept on
reading and studying, and suddenly,
almost without knowing how l did 1T,

copy"
"Oh, Ezra, / was writing only
dreams! ] see it now, and you have
written truths. Oh, am ashamed"
"Well, you needn't be. You are the
cleverest, sweetest and best girl in the
world. When shall we startT"
"Now-this minute" said Edna.

Suddenly she began to cry-not a
burst Of noisy tears, but a hopeless.
quiet weeping without even a sob.
In her mornings paper she had read
of new western author who had
drawn his inspiration from the very
Piedmont hills where her home was.
There was an extract, and this seemed
to speak to her in her husbands own
voice and say the same things Of the
place that she had heard him say so
often. 1t was word picture Of all
that could be seen from that spot up
under the madrona. She could smell
the waxy blossoms and see the rich
masses Of the golden poppies that fair
ly crowded each other. She could hear
the yellow linnets, see the wild rabbits
scattering in the bushes. She saw the
droll little gophers as they put their
noses out, saw the broad bayou, it
was too much She was seized with a

write to Ezra. and he would send her
money. But could she live until the
letter could reach her?

SCHOOLS OVERCROWDED.
Just What to DO With Tom, Dick,
and Harry Until the High School
is Built is Question.

The teachers of the public schools
are going to be hard pressed next
year to find Accommodations for the
school children in the two buildings
at their disposal. The new High
school building, intended to allevi-
ate the crowded condition of the
schools, is still year or two away
and until its completion, the grades
and iligh school both will have to
meet the inadequate space question
as best they may. Several teachers
nave had twice the number of pu-
pills thy should have had this
year and have consequently been
unable to do much individual work.
If the increase in attendance next
September is as marked as in the
past year or two, high school recita-
ton rooms will have to be evolved
upstairs, downstairs and in my
ladys chamber"
The committee on the new high
school is "wise" to this overcrowd-
ing of the schools and will undoubt-
eddy make it's plans to hustle the
work through and get the new
structure up as soon as possible in
order that the overflow may be
properly taken care of. Neverthe-
less, next years space question is a
problem that confronts the school

shoulders were thrown back and her
right foot advanced, while her hands
were clinched as if for a combat.

standpoint. Her arguments had been
carefully prepared to Sefeat anything
he might ssy. Ano here he had accept
eo ner decision without a word. He
asked no concession, made no appeal.
1t was exasperating.
Ezra Robins was six feet tall and
mite of q woman, whom he could car
ry like a child in his strong arms. He
loved her with a mighty love and
cherished her with an infinite tender
ness He almost v-orshiped the girlish
prettiness of her face with it's pink
cheeks, pale blue eyes, ashen blond
hair and weak chin. All these traits
appealed to his large nature as the ten
der beauty of a little child. Nothing
that he could do for her was too hard
or irksomc.
Ezra had received next to no edu-
cation, as his family had moved to
California before there were schools
and he had been obliged to work from
almost his babyhood. His father had
summit of the beautiful undulating
hill just beyond Piedmont. Here he
had brought his young bride.
Every comfort that he could obtain
for Edna was purchased, and he was
very happy in his protecting love and
Astounding tenderness. He loved her
so entirely that he did not know or
feel that her love for him was but a
weak and attenuated sentiment Of half
contemptuous liberation.
For Edna Robins had literary aspi-
rations. She subscribed for the story
papers, read Mrs. Braddon, Ouida and
The Duchess. She longed to evolve
books like those written by her IA
vorite authors and to people them
with such unreal characters as lived
in those books. She would sit for
hours in her darkened room trying to
create a plot for book where all the
suffering heroines should live in stump
tuous homes, wear diamonds and have
dazzling beauty.
While she was dreaming her dreams
Of unrealities in her room Ezra would
wander to place from which he could
look down upon the scene before him
the beautiful San Francisco bay-a
panorama surpassed nowhere on earth.
He always turned his eyes toward the
Golden Gate as the sun was setting to
watch the last rays as 1t sank into the
Pacific. After the sunset came the

gorgeous glory of the gold fringed
purple clouds. The last look was Civ
en- to the Golden Gate itself, the
rugged slopes Of the broken hearted
mountain that had been torn asunder
by some unknown cataclysm of nature
to open the gate to the hordes to come.
Alcatraz and Goat island grew dim
as the lights of the city across the bay
burned out. and when the evening
star and perhaps thin silvery cres-
cent hung down low over the San
Francisco hills he would heave sigh
of deep content and return to the
ranch with sweet peace on his face
and humble thankfulness for all that
he had and had seen filling his heart
so that his countenance beamed with
the inner light of a great soul.
At such times he was unconsciously
a true poet, with grand thoughts strug-
Cling for utterance and finding no out
let in words But the glory and beau
~ of it all sank deep in his simple
heart.
Edna wrote little namby PANTY

oine. This story she sent to the edi-
tor of the local paper.

fool, but he had received many serv-
Ices from Ezra when in hard luck, and
