share of the benefits from the recent
appropriation by the state for the col
lege | am in hopes that by means of
this plan the district will be able to pro-
vide instruction in manual training and
commercial subjects, now so greatly
needed, without large burden upon the
tax payers.
| hope my fellow citizens of Middle
bury will believe that it is not in my
heart to make the village high school
mere annex to the college, or to influ
ence the conduct of the school in any
way prejudical to the best interests of
the school itself. We do not ask for
larger emphasis upon the subjects of
special Importance in preparation for
college, nor that the high school should
be more distinctively a college prepare
tory school. On the contrary, | wish to
help to the best of my ability the
development of the high school along
more practical lines, for the good of the
large number of boys and girls who do
not go to college. A public high school
should be the best possible school for
boys and girls of high school age, ire
spective of whether they are going to
college or not. The college must adjust
itself to the school it is not the bust
ness OF the school to ADAPT itself TO the
college. No one holds this view of the
function and object of high school
more positively than | do, and the ar
rangement | have suggested will not
lead in the slightest degree away from
the modern improvements which Prin-
cipal Hartman and the Prudential Com
mittee rightly desire to bring to our
school.
may also add that the question of a
new school building is entirely distinct
from that of the proposed arrangement
between the college and the district.
Personally, as citizen, | believe that
added school facilities are needed in our
village, but this question has nothing to
do with the arrangement under discus
sion. The college is willing to enter in
to an agreement satisfactory to the Pru-
dental Committee and to Principal
Hartman, whatever may be the out
come of the movement for enlarged
school facilities. The two questions are
entirely separate.

A K Carr sends US the following in
teresting article concerning his recent
travels:
Have just returned from trip to
Bermuda, Old Point Comfort, Rich
mond and Washington, all of which
found instructive and very entertain
ing.
Bermuda is fine in some ways, but
not as much of white mans country
as | would like.
Old Point Comfort is ideal as to loca-
ton and surroundings, and | was deeply
interested in the precise military ap-
pointments, including land and naval
forces. Of especial interest was it's
National cemetery, soldiers home and
the Indian school.
Forty-fve years ago | was there as
soldier and the many changes since then
were very noticeable and / could not
but feel proud that / was an American,
when, on all sides, / could see the grand
charities and wisdom of our Govern
ment.
Hotel Chamberlin at this place is one
Cf the best in our country.
Richmond l found had progressed
very much and could hardly realize it
was the same burning, chaotic city that
|, with others, rushed into that memoir
able April morning AS years ago next
Sunday.
Washington | found trife disap-
pointing. Its public buildings are fine
so are its streets-but the general
architecture of the city is very common
and even its best avenues lily compare
with those of other cities.
At all these points of great national
interest the black man was strongly in
evidence, a good natured, indolent peo-
pie, willing to serve you at all times if
you will pay for it, There are l6 mil
lions of them and two elements in their
make up they retain wonderfully their
color and idleness.

OBSERVATIONS OF
 A CLODHOPPER
By E. Z. MARK.

A comet appears in the western skies. Astronomers declare the nocturnal visitor a stranger. Some religious people declare it a sign symptom of the end of the world.
 We'll, if it is the latter and the sign becomes more pronounce ed. we expect to observe a few of the inha bitants quake and knock their knees together. Some will be conscience smitten some downright omery realizing it; and some in the agonies of barbarous crimes will be crying for mercy.
 When Heavenly signs appear how sudden the proud head droops; how quick the fearless, bold and arrogant grow panic stricken and flee to places of hiding.
 Ohl The marble hearted corpo- rations; the weilders of the big sticks; the clever politicians and the glib tongued confidence men all fly from the hand of the Almighty or any evidence thereof.
 To those religiously inclined it is but to be expected that something is destined to come to relieve the situation. It is timely, as in the days of Noah or worse, by far, that something should come. The hand of man is too feeble to stay the impending worldly cateclasm. We are running into a fearful period in the worlds history. Such rot tonness as exists in politics. in re- ligious circles, in the swim of socie- ty, in the business sphere, and in common every day intercourse. It cannot last very long. Maybe tho church people and prophets are correct. The iniquity of the world is leading to it's sudden destruction. At any rate it would be we'll for us mortals to be prepared to meet our fate in case it should come. It will not hurt us if we live right and ac- cording to the Biblical teachings, even though the day of destruction was not near.

Take a Good Look at This Man

When you hear man running down his home paper or any local industry, take a good look at him. Ten to one he will have a chin as long as a rail. an eye as restless as horse thief; and he will hitch around in his chair as though he had a touch of St. Anthony's dance. Talk with him a while, and you will discover that he has made a failure of everything he ever tried (except being disagreeable), and nine times out of ten he is depend ent on the public for favors or SUD- port; you will find him a meddle- some. peevish. jealous, hateful and unreliable nature; a man who is always complaining, and although he has but little. if anything, of his own, one would imagine to hear him talk that he had a quit claim deed to the earth and first mort gage on heaven. He knows every body's business, and why should he not? He has none of his own to take up his time. Such people, like mosquitos, were not created in vain, perhaps, but one fact remains staple, they do not add materially to the pleasures of conducting legit- innate characterization Range.
