Work Of a State ornithologist

The bill before the Vermont legis-
lature to create state ornithologist
to serve without salary should become
law Every state should have state
orinthologist, Massachusetts,, Connecticut
and other states have such officials.
The state ornithologist can be useful
and valuable to the citizens of the state.
He will be under the direction of the
commissioner OF agriculture, who has the
means to pay for printing such leaflets
or other articles upon birds and bird
life as may be prepared by the onithol-
ogist The orinthologist may deliver
lectures upon birds and their value in
response to calls made upon him BY
oranges, societies, clubs, etc He may
investigate the status Of insectivorous
birds in the commonwealth aud report
upon them. He may suggest and adj
vocate beneficial legislation in behalf Of
useful birds. He can do much to edu-
cate the children in the schools, espec-
tally those Of foreigners, who kill birds.

all, was due to confusion Of terms
between salary of president and income
from the Sortwell investment in the rail
road. 1t is we'll known that the estate
of the late Alvin +. Sortwell holds most
of the stock in the Montpelier & Wells
River corporation, not to mention the
important little feeder, the Barre rail-
road, which connects with the quarries
of granite The Sortwell Investment in
these two railroads is very large, and
the usual rate of income wonld bring in
a sum which to Yermonters looks large.
Possibly the gentleman who made the
statement about Daniel r. SortwePs
salary" meant, instead, to estimate his
income from large investment, At
any rate, that a person should be paid
$4,000 a year for serving as president
of the railroad is out of joint with the
volume of the railroads business and the
weight Of responsibilities OF the office.
This we say, not with any desire
to belittle the coming investigation Of
the passenger rates charged by the Mont
pelier & Wells River railroad, but rather
to endeavor to set matter Alright. If
we are wrong, we wish to be corrected.

Each department is a store by itself,
the goods are carefully arranged in their

the greatly improved shopping facilities
will be duly appreciated by the public.
Nothing has been left undone in the
way of displaying the stock to its best
advantage, and none Of the details max

Obituary..

On March %, 1910. Mrs. Margret
E. Bair died at the home Of her
youngest son. She had been suffer
ing for some time from a general
breakdown. For near three months
she was confined to her bed. AL
though the death had been expected,
still the blow was keenly felt By all
who knew her. She was in. her 14th
year. She united with the Jericho
NJ. E. Church while young, Of which
she was a consistent member until
several years ago she moved with
her children into the Providence sec
ton. Afterwards transferring her
membership to Providence NJ. F..
church which church she remained
until her death. She was known Of.
all as one who loved and served her
Lord and as one who never tired in
doing his will. For ner death was
indeed gain as she had her full share
of suffering and sorrow while walt-
ing for the day of her redemption
Her absence is deeply felt in orr
home and the homes Of her children
who we're devoted to her. They did
everything that could be done to
keep her q little longer. But God
knew best. She left seven children.
five daughters and two sons, and
many grandchildren. one sister, four
brothers and a lot OF relatives and
friends to mourn her death. Her
body was laid to rest in the ceme-
tary at Jericho church beside her
husband.

Where Is the Trouble?

No more startling statement was
made at the recent worlds Sun
day school convention than that o
Eusent C. Foster of Detroit, tha
seventy-hve per cent of all the
boys over thirteen years old in the
Protestant Sunday schools of the
United States are lost to the church
and never make profession of faith
To the English delegates this waS
especially astounding. one of. them
claiming that in England they did
not lose more than three per cent.
We are inclined to think the En-
glishman's enthusiasm. for his own
land carried him. away in his es-
innate. But the declaration Of Mi.
Foster. .coucurred in by all his
fellow-delegates, deserves examina-
ton.
OF Mr.. Foster it should be said
that he is an experienced worker
with boys. a regular contributor up
on work witt; boys for the Sunday
School Times, and that his calcula-
ton was made after study. abserva-
tion and experience. Being true, It
proves there is something lacking il
the methods of our Sunday schools
and churches.
That it is wiser to hold on to boys
rather than suffer them to slip away
from the church and then later To
try to reclaim them. must be pa
tent to all But somehow the Sum
day schools have not proven equal 10
the tast. HCw far short they have
fallen would appear from comparing.
in any city district or small commun-
ity. the public school enrolment
with that of the Sunday school. But
the churches cannot be expected TO
work wonders.
In justice to the church. as Les
lies Weekly points out. it should lie
said that the original failure lies
back Of it, with the home and lhe
parents. Can we expect the churcn
to Go what the home miSerably fails

parental control or even guidance is

their parents or consult anybody S

relations of parent and child must
bear a part Of the blame that is Or

terested. For there is mere typhoid
in the United States than in any
country in the world. The health
commissioner of New York reported
one thousand, three hundred deaths
from typhoid in that state alone dur
ing the year 1909.
There now appear nc reason 70
doubt that eventually every COM
municable disease will be made pre-
ventable and perhaps durable as
knowledge of bacteriology increases
and is perfected. 1t has been truly
said that the-work Of Pasteur and
Robert Koch in developing science
has changed the practice OF medicine
from a fight in almost dark to a
struggle il the growing light.
Much of the success that has been
achieved in the fight against oon-
sumption is due to Koch's discovery
in 1882 of the. bacillus of tuberculo-
sis. Fresh air, sunlight and proper
food are to be sure the most eftica-
cious remedies, but the value of tu-
bercuhn in diagnosing is almost In
calcuable. In like manner civilized
countries have all but. exterminated
Asiatic cholera, formerly one OF the
most dreaded and apparently hope
'ess infections. So, too, have small
pox and other plaques against which

Outlook Very Bright.


The National Monthly, edited $by
Democratic National Chairman Nor
man E. Mack, bases the confident eX-
pectation of Democratic House of
representatives upon these three
reasons: First, betrayal Of the peo-
pie in the pledge OF the Republican
party of an honest downward revls-
ion of the tariff, second, the oppres-
sively high cost of the necessities OF
life, due in large measure to the pro-
fligacy and privileges of the Repub-
licen n raiHistrati0p: third, the con-
s4lel- of legislative bodies through
corruption, direct or indirect, aho
typified in what the country knows
as .Cannonism.' 1t is also noted
that Democratic Governors in great
debatable States--Harmon in Ohio,
Marshall in Indiana, and Shallen-
berger I'm Nebraska-haye greatly
added to their own and their party. S
prestige, while, with the exception
Of Governor Hughes (who has spit
his party almost hopelessly) Repub-
lican Governors have done just the
reverse. The National Monthly pre-
diets Governor Harmon's trium-
phant reelection by one hundred
thousand plurality.
In the current issue OF the Sat
urday Evening Post Mr.. Samuel G..
Blythe, staff political writer, whose
latest task has been to review con-
ditions in Ohio and Indiana--=with
entire freedom from partizanship,
of course-declares Governor Har-
mons reelection this fall to be al
most a foregone conclusion. He finds
Harmon victory virtually conced-
ed on every hand. Two years ago
Harmon received 1872 plurality
where the Republican ticket receiv-
ed 69,3s1. Such result was sulfi-
ciently remarkable in itself, tlough
not without parallel by any means,
But Governor Harmon, II reelected
this fall according to general expec-
tation, will have followed up his vic
tory with exceptionally important
results. He has confirmed and grea :
s. increased the aGs.tlon and esteem
in which the people Of Ohio 'hotd
him. He has been a. Governor OF
the very best sort, purgins State in
stitutions of graft and raismanage.
nsnt while at ;he same time es-
chewing all partisan ship which was
uncalled-for.
Under his administration. Demo
Gratis have become Thoroughly unit
ed, while Republicans hays become
split wide open. Not averse to legl-
innate politics, be is none the les
man of the most transparent hon
esty and sincerity. Few public men
have possessed more pleasing per
sonality; his simple and naturai Zig
nifty, combined with very warm
heart, needs neither demaGog% 40,
frills. Uncle Jud Harmon is now
64, and after having been ajudga'
an Attorney General of the United
States and Governor, franklJ wants
TO be Fresiden. Mr.. Blythe, while
recognizing thai any political situa-
tion may change overnight, knows
no other man half so likely to re-
ceiye: the Democratic presidential.
nomination. 1t is far cry to 1912
! but as the Charlotte Observer says
certainly the Democrats have seldom
had more cause for encouragement
at similar period. AS regards the
/ House of Representatives, elected
this fall, their hopes are. and witt
reason, extremely strong.
