UNCLE SANS SCHOOLS.
Has 24,613, 1853 Children of School
Age. One-Third Not Enrolled.

Figures just made public concern
ing the public schools of the United
States for 1908 show that there were
24,613,763 children of school age;
that is, between and IS, in the
country. The total school enroll
ment was 17,061,962, and the aver
age daily attendance was 12,154,172.
Less than one-half of the children
went to school regularly, and nearly
one-third were not enrolled.
Women teachers outnumbered the
men nearly four to one, the exact
figures being 390,968 and 1O4,495.
Those who believe that too many wo-
men teachers are 'feminizing' the
world will take little comfort from
these figures, and the figures for at
tendance given above are not en-
couraging from any point of view.
The public schools in 1908 cost
1911, 344,310, an increase of $34,-
455,977 over the previous year.
This increase offers encourage
ment, and so does the fact that the
school year in 1908 averaged 2.3 days
longer than in 1907 The number
of teachers increased 14,147, and the
enrolment increased 171,144.

PASS THE KINDNESS ON
That's the Way to Brighten
Life's Pathway.


ct makes me feel badly to think
I can't repay you in some way" said
the woman who was receiving the
favor; cant you possibly think of
something l can do for your"
Don't know as 1 can," responded
the brisk little woman who was be-
slowing the favor; 80 suppose you
do it for someone else"
I think all favors, all kindnesses,
all helps in life ought to be treated
that way, says writer in an eX-
change.
Very, very often one cannot hope
to repay ones benefactors. But l
don't think that inability relieves one
from the moral obligation to keep the
credit and debit sides of ones kind
ness account with balance on the
right side by passing it on"
If you do that l firmly believe that
in the great clearing house of kind
ness the original benefactor will
somehow receive his own again.
That wouldn't be any more won
derful than your receiving the money
in New York on check drawn on
San Francisco bank and the New
York bank being safely reimbursed,
would it? And, just think, man is
managing that business and God the
other.
| know a man whose brother man
years ago advanced the money to
send him to college. He planned to
pay it back, but before he finished
his course his brother died. Instead
of bewailing himself that he could
never pay that kindness back he
passed it on That is, as soon as
he got on his feet financially he
gave the same sum of money his own
education had cost to another am
bilious young man who lacked the
funds for the education he craved.
And when that boy would have re-
paid the money he was told to keep
it until he found another ambitious
young man who stood in need of it.
And now the fund of that big
brother has sent five men to college,
/ can never repay the newspaper
man who gave me my first foOthold
in the newspaper profession; who ex-
planned and advised and smoothed
away difficulties that might have
proven absolutely insurmountable
without his surprising kindness.
He is far above any ability CT mine
to help him.
But / can help some other begin
ner and I consider it just as much
my obligation to help any % the in
experienced folk who come into my
path as it would be to help him if
he needed it.
think it would be a splendid con-
dition of affairs if every time any
of us received a kindness of any sort
we felt uneasy until we had passed
it on
What you gave might not always
be of the same kind or size as what
you received, of course, but just
what you had to give.
If your richer neighbor, for in
stance, takes you out motoring why
not let that be a reminder for you
to send to your poorer neighbor some
fruit?
Or, if your rich cousin invites you
on yachting trip why not let that
become an obligation to you to in
vite your poorer cousin to enjoy what
is as much luxury to her as the
yachting trip is to you-a week at
your summer cottage?
If a kindness to you is shown,
tbs not meant for you alone
Pass it on.
Let it dry another's tears,
Let it travel down the years
Till in heaven it appears.
Pass it on.

Before I began taking DR..
Miles Heart Remedy ! had been
suffering from heart trouble for
over FIVE years. I had pains in
my left side, and under my
shoulder blade, could not sleep
on the left side, and was SO short
of breath the least exertion
would bring on the most distress
inSlealpitation. l had scarcely
taken'a half bottle OF the Heart
Remedy before / could see a
marked change in my condition.
When / had taken six bottles /
was cured"

If there is Auttering or palpi-

weakness of the nerves and mus
cles of the heart. 1t is not neces-
sarily diseased-just weak from
over-work. The heart may be
weak just the same as the eyes,
stomach or other organs. You
can make weak heart strong
by taking DIR. Miles Heart REM

fit he will return your money

Prices.

While comparative tables are not
necessary nowadays to convince one
of the increased cost of living they
sometimes make interesting, if I'M
pleasant, reading. A political adj
vertisement issued by the democratic
state committee of New Hampshire
shows a two weeks store bill at
prices current in October, 1896, and
at present figures, the increase be-
ing over SO per cent. Whether or not
one believes that this skyward climb
is due to the tariff and the trusts,
as the advertisement sets forth in
good democratic doctrine, the figures
themselves are worth at least a hasty
glance. They follow:

The Trustee Process.

The legislature is having its in
ming with the party pledge to pass
a bill making $40 of a workman's
wages exempt from the trustee
process The house promptly passed
House Bill, No. 10, which exempted
$40 of a mans wages from the trus-
tee process and sent it to the
senate When the matter was taken
up in that body Senate Bill No. 20 in
troduced by Senator Cushman of
Bennington county was urged in
place of the house bill. Senator
Cushman's bill does not provide a
$40 exemption but provides that ten
per cent of a mans wages may be
trusted and that ninety per cent of
his wages shall be entirely exempt
from the trustee process. The SEN
ate passed the Cushman bill which
means the death of the house bill in
the senate.
The debate was largely regarding
party promise and whether it was
to carry out that promise to the
md destroy the credit of a man
SO week or less or to pre-
right to trustee mans
s.4ges - The extent of ten per cent.

One State University.

In another colum we publish an
editorial from the Burlington Free
Press which is one of a series writ
ten concerning the University of Yer
mont. The discussion and state
ments made in that paper concern
ing the university form valuable re-
suits of the agitation started by a
discussion of the extent to which the
state should appropriate money to
support these privately owned high
er educational institutions in the
state, because it shows to what ex-
tent the university and the state are
united in its special educational
work. We believe no other institu-
ton in Vermont is the creation of the
state to the extent that the Univer-
sity of Vermont is and therefore no
other institution has the same claims
on the state that this one has.
Having one university that it is
bound to support to some extent the
question arises as to whether it is
wise to contribute to colleges and
other institutions to the same extent.
We believe it is not. First one good
university is all that Vermont can
afford to maintain. Only eight per
cent of the children of the public.
schools go to any univer-
sity and it is impossible to
get all of these to attend a uni
versity within the state. We doubt
if half of the young men and women
of Vermont who are taking college
course are attending Vermont col
leges. For Vermont to attempt to
bolster up three institutions to edu-
cate this small number of students
would seem to be a wrong policy, one
that lacks good business judgment.
Second, the state cannot afford to
give the amount that would be neces-
sary to make these several institu-
lions prosperous and influential. A
successful higher educational insti-
tuition is much more expensive as
we'll as extensive to-day than for
merly when a classical course was all
there was to college education. I'm
less colleges and universities are bet
ter equipped than ever before they
cannot compete to-day with institu-
lions that have the better Equipment,
hence to maintain more than one
such institution presents greater diff
ficulties than before.
These conditions are natural con-
ditions here in Vermont. They were
not created by the legislature and
they cannot be changed by the legis-
lature. They should be accepted by
the legislature exactly as they are
and treated with good business sense.
No successful business attempts to
prosper or develop on conditions
that have passed. The state of YER
mont cannot do it in educational eff
fort and it should not attempt to. Be-
cause it has made this mistake in the
past is no justification for its con-
tinuance. There is serious work for
the legislature on this subject if it
does it's full duty by the tax payers
of Vermont.

Attention is called to a compari-
son of prices taken from the Brattle-
boro Reformer and published in an
other column. The increase seems
to be quite as large in things a far
mer can produce as on articles sup
posed to be controlled by trusts. So
we cannot quite hold the trusts re-
sponsible for present prices. If it is
the tariff it seems to benefit all
classes of producers alike. 1t can
not be claimed that it harms the
producer until it has been learned
whether the increase in prices here
has been greater than in free trade
England.

Last Monday the trial of Mrs.
Frank C. Averil1 of st. Adams charg-
ed with the murder of her husband
on October 20, was begun in Frank
lin county court. On September 10
William Heath was shot and killed
in the home of Mrs. Marshall J.
Dodge in Lunenburg, Mrs. Dodge
was arrested on the charge of muir
der in the first degree and released
on bail, one term of county court has
been held and she has not been for
mally arraigned on the charge and it
is announced she probably will not
be tried at the January term. 1t
looks as though it made considerable
difference which part of the state a
person lives in about the way the
charge of murder is handled and we
think the Franklin county way is
much more creditable to the state as
a whole.
