Help Vermont Academy.

''We are sure that money placed in
our hands will effectively mold boys at
the most pliable age for the best sort
OF citizenship" say the trustees and
alumni Of Vermont academy ut Saxtons
River in their appeal for financial aid,
which is made especially to Yermonters.
Here is an institution which possesses
the location, the plant, the equipment
and the teaching force for the highest
class of preparatory educational work.
1t presents the record Of small army
of alumni scattered all over the world
who are filling positions Of usefulness
and living honorable lives to-day, and
a good percentage OF them are distin-
guished and leaders in various walks of
fife. Vermont academy needs $4,000
to pay the loan of the Baptist state
convention, $4,000 to take care Of its
floating indebtedness, $4,000 to be used
in rebuilding Farnsworth hall, burned
current receipts have paid the current
bills Of the academy, and the recent
changes in respect to scholars and rates
are working steadily toward better
financial standing. The school has in
its lands, buildings and equipments,
property to the value Of 100000, and
its endowment fund, well invested,
amounts to S72,542, so that its total
physical assets represent approximate
Nv $4,000. The $1,000 which YER
mont academy needs would put the in
stitution on a substantial, self sustain.
ing and perpetuating basis, so that il
could continue TO live up to the high
ideals OF its founders and do noble
work in behalf of the citizenship Of the
future. Gifts of 500 and upwards win
be of great assistance to this worthy
cause. Now Is the time when the OPP
portunity Is presented 70 people Of
means to give so that their money will
count in genuine philanthropy.
II is encouraging to note that over
5000 has already been subscribed to
the fund which is being raised Brattle-
boro Phoenix.

and if sixteen hundred of them do not
go to the polls tomorrow and register
their choice of candidates and policies
it will be a serious reflection OH the
public spirit of this city, To be sure,
there are few contests and little or no
agitation over the local option issue
but that condition furnishes no valid
excuse for the failure of any man to
cast his vote, provided he is in town and
able to get to the polls. Plenty. of time
is given for voters in every occupation
through the opening of the polling
places at six o'clock in the morning,
and continuing through to three in the
afternoon. Therefore, let everyone on
this occasion, one of the few occasions
in which citizens have the right to an.
nounce their supremacy in governmental
affairs, turn out to vote tomorrow and
thereby declare that they are still in
control of their own affairs. VIII you
do so, or will you let Others run things
as they have mind to?

The Starvation Cure.

Pace Mr.. Upton st, Clair
Some people when they're feeling i'll
In sick and sorry plight
Fall back upon a draught or pill.
To set their system right;
Or to some spa they perhaps repair
Aud time and money waste
In drinking mineral waters there
Liked added eggs that taste
Yet not in search Of health they'd roam
We're they with sense endued
They'd quietly remain at home
And swear awhile of food.
For ten to one the troubles cause
That holds them in its clutch
Is due to houting Natures laws
And eating twice too much
Their stomach thus they overtire;
On strike their liver goes
Hence both solid spell require
OF absolute repose.
Then give it them! Eat naught at all
For twelve whole days on end;
Aye, DR.. Fast's the man to call;
Your ais he'll quickly mend.
You head will soon feel as clear as clear
Your body fit and prime
Unless you, of starvation sheer,
Demise in the meantime!
Truth.

Current Comment


lost OF Partlsansnip In cities,
The taxpayers Of Burlington would
unquestionably be astounded, if they
could, know how much it has cost them
TO have the management of their com
mon affairs conducted along national
party lines, 1t is great temptation
to strengthen a political organization by
making place for this man or that,
though he may not be exactly the kind
of a man needed for the place, or even
though he may not be needed at all.
This is true of political parties in gen
eral.
Now the affairs of city are like
q great business concern, having man
fold interests. The taxpayers foot the
bills, and they do not care what a
man thinks about the tariff question
or other national issues, provided he is
the best man to manage municipal af-
fairs well and economically. No bus
mess concern would inquire whether
a man it wanted for superintendent
believed in reciprocity, or in the popu-
lar election OF United States senators,
or in any particular system Of political
primaries.
These considerations, which we have
frequently urged, cause us to rejoice
over the indications that Burlington's
taxpayers as well as our people In
general are rapidly coming to their
senses in this direction They are say
ing that we need more business and
less politics in our municipal affairs,
and we want the best man for the
heads of each OF the different depart
ments, no matter whether he is Re-
publican or Democrat in national poll

Net earnings of the two companies
consolidated in the United States Metal
Products Co., for the past three years
acting independently, amounted to an
average Of % per cent. per annum on
the preferred stock, so that without
any increase in net earnings resulting
from addition Of new capital and con
solidation, average net earnings would be
more than three times the dividends
on the preferred shares.
The stock is being offered at par
lSI00l with an addition of 10 per cent
in common stock. Should the investor
not care to avail himself OF the com
mon share bonus, the bankers offer to
repurchase the common stock at $40 per
share, thus making the preferred shares
500 net.

A DISAPPOINTING CONGRESS


That the "stand.pat7 section of the
Republican party dominated the latest
session of the United States Congress
is amply shown by the results of the
session, which closed Saturday. More
over, Congress did comparatively little,
except to participate in great deal OF
talk. The talk came to naught. The
appropriation Of three millions OF dol
lars for the fertilization Of the Panama
canal, thus committing the United States
to definite policy, was perhaps the
most far-reaching of the affirmative ae-
tons taken during the session, although
The creation of forest reserves in the
Appalachian and White mountains ranks
nearly as high. But outside Of those
two acts, 1t is hard to find in the sum-
mary Of events anything which amounts
to much,
Over against the affirmative actions
were many denials of passage to meas
ures which came before Congress with
powerful influence, including the recon-
mendation Of the president OF the United
States. They failed or passage by a
Congress which was strongly Republic
can, Standing out prominently among
these matters is Canadian reciprocity !;
and the failure to take action on the
recommendation OF the president has re-
suited in the calling OF an extra session

cradle enterprise by getting out a spe-

find the assertion that there are 5000
automobiles in Vermont; also that Yer

ratio of motor cars to population, The
District OF Columbia leads, and the
states ahead Of Vermont are New Jer-
sey, South Dakota, Nebraska, Nevada,
Rhode Island and Connecticut The
