Why Homes are Wrecked

The Free Press has a vigorous ed
itorial on the recent attempt OF GER
tain parents to regain control of their
children who had been placed in an
institution, after the home nad been
wrecked, and reads a severe lecture
to the neighbors and friends of the
family for their neglect to interfere
and make better conditions in that
bors had done their duty the home
might have been saved from destruc-
tion and tne tragedy of ruined house
hold averted
Possibly that is the fact. but it
should not be overlooked that in a
great multitude of cases the interior
ence of 'neighbors" is the most po-
tent cause of the wreck of the home.
There are scores of men and women
who once were contented and happy
in each others society WAC have been
separated ana driven apart, a great
gulf fixed between them, simply and
solely because the "neighbors" took
it upon themselves to manage the af-
fairs of that family. Some word was
dropped in their presence which re-
vealed tiny rift of the lutte" and
straightway these constituencies peo-
pie animated by tne spirit of the pit,
deliberately set themselves to work
to split that home wide open.
Under the guise of friendship they
pried into private affairs possessed
themselves of the family skeleton and
persistently ratified the dry bones of
that cadayar in the ears of one or
both parties in the family, until, dis
tracted and driven to desperation the
tragedy was enacted and the family
scattered to the four winds of heaven
and then these hypocrites who have
been the wreckers of the home, as
certainly as If they had blown it up
with the bomb of an anarchist, roll
their pious eyes heavenward and hold
up their hands in horror at the depra-
witty of the human nature.
There is where the divorce court
gets it's mightiest reinforcement, the
interference of ''neighbors." If the
relatives of married couples the Gro
MES" of both sides, the intimates of
both husband and wife, the gossips,
tale-boarers, sneaks. snakes in the
grass would keep their hypocritical
hands off the affairs of other people,
there would be fewer broken hearted
men and women In this world and
more happy and permanently estab-
lished homes. 1t would be a splendid
thing for society if the "neighbors"
could be compelled to mind their own
business Rutland Herald.

Foolish Examinations

Thirty-three pupils from the dis
trict schools of Brattleboro, Dummer-
ston and Guilford recently took the eX-
aminations which the state board of
education provides for young people
who are anxious to secure free tuition
in secondary schools. An average of
65 per cent with a minimum of not
less than so per cent in any subject
is required in these examinations be-
fore a pupil can secure a certificate
admitting aim to high school. Out
of the 33 who took the examination
not one passed. There were several
whose general average was over 65
per cent but in each case a low mark
record. One might think at first that
the result was a serious reflection on
the scholarship of those who took the
examinations as well as on the
schools in which they have received
their elementary education. But a
perusal of the questions will show
clearly why none of the young people
secured the certificates they were af-
ter. Hardly any of them are such as
elementary pupils would be expected
To answer correctly. Some of them
sound as if they had been prepared
by pedant pure and simple. If the
state board of education wishes to
encourage the young people OF Yer
mont to attend higher institutions of
learning it should not put out tests
that are NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Re-

FORESTRY IN VERMONT
Work Being Recognized Outside of
the State

After years of lamentaton over the
ravages of the lumber companies and
the pulp mills after seeing her trout
streams fail and ner mill dams rein
forced by storage reservoirs, the
state of Vermont has engaged train
ed forester to keep an eye on her
wood lots and try to awaken the far
mers to the advantage of preserving
them.
This forester is A. f. Halves who is
a graduate of the Yale forestry school
and has been in the government SER
vice and forester OF Connecticut. so
there has been no time to show res
ults from his labors but ne has been
familiarizing himself with the con-
ditions in the state including the
large sum yielded by the lumber cut
yearly, and is about to inaugurate a
campaign 'of education
One of his educational doctrines
sounds very alluring. 1t is that in
stead of selling the growth of his
wood lot Just once the farmer ought
to be able to market a lumber crop
every 80 years If he looks out to see
that it is properly planted and pro
tected To stimulate this business of
forest planting there is state nur-
sery in which young trees have been
growing for two years and whose pro
ducts are offered at cost price. Some
100, 900 trees, chiefly white pine have
already been distributed by this nur-
sery for the planting to farmers and
lumber men.
AS there are miles on miles of Yer
mont hillsiGes which can never grow
anything but trees-or possibly SiWss
goats-it looks as if this state nur-
sery ought to do a thriving business.
II the state forester can restore those
DAYS when the Vermont mountain
brooks were filed to their banks with
water and with trout he will increase
the revenue of the state from summer
boarders enough to pay his own sal

TENNYsoN
A Fortunate Poetic Dominance in the
World of English Song

We need not inquire as to the COM
parative artistic merit of Byron and
Scott and Wadsworth of Keats and
Shelley, of Longfellow. Lowell, Poe,
Whitman and Emerson, of Swinburne,
81 owning and Tennyson in order to
determine whose genius of all these
reached the wider, popular audience
and influence in their times. Among
these English-speaking singers each
of us may name his special favorite
and master but all know which reach
ed the greater number.
Fortunate indeed has been the Eng
lish speaking world in that the fas-
cination for the masses of readers of
the brilliant and irresponsible Byron
the effect of whose better deliver
ance was yet wholesome-was follow
ed by the vogue of master so golden
hearted and nobly inspired and in
spring as Tennyson. For many of
those living who felt and long re-
manned under the Tennysonian spell
another music-such as that of Fltz-
gerald's even. or that of one of the
mightier sinscrs-may later have as
sumed a more peremptory importance.
Some parts of Tennyson's wide ac-
complishment may have, TO these lost
Of its earlier charm; but

mOnd like perfection and strength of
his highest lyrics the grave music of
his most virile and most penetratively
beautiful blank verse. tae large and

these lements of his art endure; these
are indestructible; these endear the

FEATHER RUFFs FOR NECK.
Expensive to Buy, But Are Not Hard
 to Make at Home.

It is quite fashionable now to wear around the neck a close-fittlng ruff made of an ostrich feather of small tips This has extra wide white ruch- ing above and sometimes below The feathers are secured with a tight-fit ting satin band, which ends over the hooks and eyes with rosette and two short streamers.
 These are expensive to buy there fore the woman who has small feath- CTS put away can accomplish such a ruff at home during the morning hours. Steaming the feathers and re- curling them with scissor blade will put them in good condition The ruff should fit the neck and be worn over stock with coat suit.
