mitted.

mont Bar association was held yesterday

room of the court house at Montpelier

The afternoon session consisted largely
of reports from the various committees
and discussions by the members Of the
association as to matters they desire
to bring before the legislature, among
which is the changing Of the law so that
judges Of the supreme court viii become
/ justices, instead,
| In the evening, at 7:45, the second
session opened and three new members
were elected into the organization, Guy
Nv Hill of st. Iohnsbury. A. ID. V. Piper
of Jamaica and Fred +. Gleason OF
/ Montpelier. The address Of the after
noon was by G. g. Austin of st. Adams
president of the association, who spoke
on the divorce evil. He said in part
that it is really a social condition, rather
than legal problem which confronts
Ius While laws might be enacted that
would prevent hasty aud clandestine
marriages and thus prevent many d.
vorces, it would be difficult to frame any
law which would strike at the root OF
the matter The courts of the different
states grant divorces for different causes,
and until the parents and those in
charge Of boys and girls rise to the occa-
sion and teach the children that mar
riage is sacred and life partnership, to
be ended only by death, this great d.
vorce evil viii be abroad in the land.
With them, therefore, rests the response
bility for the sanctity and purity of the
home.

speaker of the evening and he referred
to the report going the rounds OF the
papers that Vermont was on the decline

we will show slight gain. But, with
or without gain in population, the
main thing for us to consider is whether
we are progressing along industrial lines.
Judge G. NJ. Powers, junior member OF
the supreme court, spoke for that body,
and W. H. Miles, chief Judge of the
superior court. spoke OF its work.
Max L. Powell of Burlington spoke on
the legislature and said that its motto
for this session should be Adjournment
BY Thanksgiving" He thought if less
time was spent ON woman's suffrage and
like questions, more actual legislation
might be accomplished. Leon Gaureau
of Montreal was the guest of honor,
and he brought greetings from the Ca
madam bar, which he said has great re-
spect for the Vermont association. 9th
