Per cent Amount
Town.

Local taxat;o1 is good thing i ] that
it develops local independence and
arouses and maintains interest in
school affairs. But to maintain this
interest it is necessary to have good
schools. In some towns conditions
are such that a sufficient amount of
money for school purposes can be
raised only by heavy and burden
some tax.
An increased state tax for educa-
tionaI purr oses would result in better
schools and better industrial and
agricultural conditions in Vermont,
and this would keep more of our young
men and women at home. Because
we have so long depended on the town
unit We are reluctant to make
change. 1t is feared that our larger
towns whose schools are already Oh a
good basis, and some of the smaller
ones which do not have to raise heavy
school taxes would resent any attempt
to increase the state tax. But the
people Of Vermont are usually ready
| to work for the interest of the whole
state when the course of procedure to
a desired end is clearly unders sood.
| That the whole wealth Of the state
shall be made available for educating
all the youth of the state is sound
principle, and one we ought to adopt.
Two Greatest Civilizers.
Increased means and increased leis-
ure are the two civilizers of man.

The United States a do with
sugar Just as II has done with tin
plate, only the advantage would be
immensely greater. Instead OF
sending $50, 600, 900 to Great Brit
ain to pay for tin plate, as was
done before the Mckinley bill be-
came a law, we are now practical
~ producing all the tin plate con-
sumed In this country, and the con
sumption Is more than double what
Il was when the Tariff was impos
ell. The wages paid in the tin
plate and allied industries in this
country aggregate over $22, OO0, 900
annually. The price Of tin plate
when the Protective duty was i'm
posed averaged Si.s1 a box. The
average for several years has been
1925. So that there has not only
been this large reduction in price,
but We are keeping at home $780,
900, 900 annually and paying the
greater part of 1t to American la
Dor instead of sending to Great
Britain, where the wages paid to
the workers in the tin plate indus

appointed "divorcc proctor" and 1t
will be his duty TO investigate d.
yorce cases by calling on the in

and getting at the real facts and
causes in the case and also when
POSSIBLE have them withdraw their
divorce suit and make up. The
plan Is n splendid one. Many a
divorce results from q little stub

credit OF anyone of the gentlemen

fact that Mr.. Poole's appointment

rank discourtesy to the opposition
but there were, perhaps, a dozen
applicants for the place who ere
quite as good Democrats and cap

the unceremonious manner In
which Mr.. Poole was thrust into
