Three vermOnters in California.

Three hale and hearty Vermonters
members OF STANDARDS brigade which at
tackled Pickctt's flank at Gettysburg ant
helped turn the course Of history il
the hottest point OF the most erucia
day Of the Civil War, arrived with theil
families at the Fairmont this morning
They are Colonel Henry o. Clark Of East
Orange, n. j., General c. L. Marsh Of
Enosburg Falls, Vt, and Col. Fl. w. AL.
len OF Burlington. Vt
Every winter for many years these
three men have taken q months vacation
together, making trips TO warm climates,
usually ending with a pilgrimage to the
field of Gettysburg and lighting it all
over again. All three have made their
fortunes since the war, but in later years
have come to realize that all their life
since that one day has not held so much
for them as was crowded into the few
hours when they plunged through the hui
man harricade and helped turn the bat
tie. So, each, on having est sished a
great business which does not require
all their attention, they have decided that
they have more in common with each
other than any one else, and foregather
each year
Last year they went to Mardi Gras at
New Orleans without their families, and
they now have more "reminiscences, but
these they laugh over. This year their
families came along Francisco Bull

A Great University Takes Up The Cor
respondence School idea.

Lincoln steffens In the February Am
er:aan Magazine tells en- eye-opening
story Of the work the university Of
Wisconsin is doing among the farmers
and people Of its state. In his article
entitled Sending State to College"
he tells how the faculty Of the univer-
sity have applied the idea Of the private
correspondence schools to their uniyer-
sity extension work. He writes:
"'Why couldn't We says President
Van Hise, do for artisans and manu-
facturers, teachers and preachers and
all men and all women and children, all
that we were doing for the farmers
and their wives and their childrenY
"'ihere, then, is the true birth OF the
pure idea OF university extension. No
thought in that Of money for the uni
versity; no philauthropic fad notion
about culture for the masses; nothong
but the instinct for democracy and
needed service. President Van Hise
says that after the idea came up, the
only hesitation he had was to find a
way to 20 about for a method, he no.
ticed the private correspondence schools.
They seemed to be thriving. He sent
DR.. Charles Mccarthy, former foot
ball coach and an Irish enthusiast, to
see what these were doing, and how.
Mccarthy came back fun Of the idea
These schools had thousands of pupils;
they taught by mail; and some OF them
were getting rich And vet, they did
nothing that university couldn't do
better
President Van Hise drew up his
scheme, modelled upon the private cor.
respandence schools.
When he presented his scheme to TIE
regents, they hesitated; who wouldn't
But Mr.. Van Hise pointed to the
schools of law and medicine. They
we're all private institutions once. When
they had proved the demand. the
states had taken them over and the
patronage Of the private correspondence
schools in Wisconsin proved the exis
tenea in the state Of a demand for
education which the state universities
had overlooked. The regents decided TO
try 1t; they voted $500 to make a
test In three months, they appropriat-
ed $500 more. The correspondence

URGE personal EFFORT.
To Influence New England Constituents
in Forest Reserve.

Boston, Feb. eff New England
wants the Weeks forest reserve bill 10
pass, IL must show its interest" This
Is what the new Boston Chamber Of Com
meree advises.
The merchants are now advocating
that influential constituents write per-
sonal letters TO the New England con-
gressmen and senators, urging united
support for the Weeks bill. II Is not
party question in Washington, and the
bin seems TO be fayorably regarded. The
representatives OF New England, the
South, and the middle states are unani-
nous. What they wish now Is to make
the members from the Western states
understand the Importance Of the legs-
lation
The Weeks bin differs from former
forest reserve bills. II provides for the
purchase OF forest lands on any water
she'd, to be reserved as national forests.
These reserves shall be purchased from
moneys realized from the revenues OF
existing national forests. A million dol
lars during the coming fiscal year and
two million in each subsequent year for
ten years Is the proposed rate of expend.
iture. The final vote in the House com
mittee on agriculture was in favor OF
this bill, and the report il now being
printed.
A Washington dispatch states that at
is understood that forestry officials will
begin work first in the White mountains,
because that section Is. regarded as in
need Of immediate attention"
Commercial organizations in Fitchburg,
Haverill, Lowell, Lynn, Spring
field, Marlborough, Hartford, New Hav.
en-, Pawtucket, Westerly, Providence,
Bangor, Lewiston, Portland, Manchester,
and st. Johnsbury have en-
dorsed the Weeks bill, and many inhuen-
tial men are sending personal letters of
commendation to their senators or con-
gressmen.
