Why Attend Church?
l. It's a good habit. The SER
vice of the church, with it's mus
ic, prayer and fellowship in wor-
ship, is the best expression we
have of the community's highest
aspiration.
2. It's a logical observance. You
can no more be independent of
others in religion than you can
in politics or business. We are
members one of another and we
need each others help most of
all in Christian living.
;. It's a thoughtful purpose.
The Church is the worlds great
est practical teacher of morals;
therefore, it deserves the sup
port of every thoughtful person.
4. It's a profitable investment.
You may not need the service
and get but little from it for
yourself, yet it is worth far more
than regular attendance will cost
you to keep alive and vigorous in
the community such focus for
morality as the church provides.
S. It's a wise choice. If you
want to do good or be good, it is
unwise to ignore the greatest
power for good that exists. For
the sake of your influence, as
we'll as for the sake of your char
acter, you can't afford to with
draw from the great fellowship
Of the Christian church.

Vacancy In Regiment May be Filled by
Another Company from Burlington
Burlington. Sept. 2s.-Another com
pany OF the Vermont National Guard
will soon be formed In Burlington II
the right men can be found to go
ahead with It's organization. The de-
cision to take this step was reached
yesterday at a conference between
General Lee s. Tillotson and some OF
the officers associated with him In
the military department of the state.
At present the First Infantry which
ordinarily consists Of IL companies,
has only IL. Sooner OF later another
company will be organized somewhere
in Vermont, to make up the deficiency.
Burlington can have the new company
II suitable men will undertake its
formation.
In fact, the officers Of the Vermont
National Guard consider that 1t would
be especially advantageous to have
the new company located here. The
building at present used for an armory
could be used by both companies and
when eventually an armory is built
there II could be two-company armory
which could be built at less relative
cost than two one-company armories
situated in different towns.
Judging by the standards that hold
good In Massachusetts and other
states where towns of $4,000 lnhabi.
tants support more than one company
!, say the officers. Burlington is easily
able to maintain another company. In
fact, 1t is believed that this city could
1 furnish an entire battalion of -four
: companies. This being the case, Il
Is considered better to locate the new
company here, where It can receive
adequate support, than to place It II
d some town where it might be disband
ell from lack of support, and where tn
d state would perhaps be left with al
n empty armory on its hands.
Lieutenant John b Barnes Of tn
Fifth United States infantry. the 81
X perienced army officer detailed by tn
d war department for the next thre
years as instructor OF the Vernon
70 National Guard, said yesterday that
m have another company In Burlingto
would be a great advantage to Con
pany NJ. The effect OF the new con
y pany would be to start a spirit {
o. friendly rivalry, and to draw into th
ranks OF both organizations more me
or of the better sort.

The Brewers Speak

The brewers of Wisconsin and the
upper peninsula Of Michigan held the
annual meeting Of their association in
Milwaukee Friday, sixty-fve members
being present, most every locality being
represented. The association took the
same ground as that taken by the editor
of the Leader and adopted a resolution
stating the sense of the association to be,
so far as it in it's power, require Obedince
by local dealers Of the law, and if viola
tions are continued, directing that steps
be taken by the association officers to
correct the abuses. If any complaint
against a saloonkeeper is made of unlaw-
full practices or disorderly conduct the
association will make an immediate in
vestigation and if the charges are sus-
tanned the association itself will prose-
cute the saloonkeeper.
There are good men in the liquor bust
ness and some who pay no attention to
either the state or municipal laws gov
erning the business, and each local
association for its own protection should
take the initiative in prosecuting the
viOlatOrs of the laws. The attention of
our local brewer is respectfully called to
the action Of the state association and
we would inform him that there thou
sands of men who do not believe in a
personal liberty league who are not pro-
hibitionists.

WOOL AND THE TARIFF

The democrats in congress are
having mighty warm time over
the wool schedule. William J.
Bryan who assumes to be the
brains and leader of the party, in
sists that raw wool shall be put up
on the free list, but those interested
in the success of the democracy at
the next national election will not
stand for it, consequently, there are
strained relations existing between
the advocate of rs to I and promi-
nent leaders of the party. Free
wool would end sheep raising in
this country, for the sheep raisers
could not compete against free wool
from the Argentine republic and
the result would be repetition OF
the experiences under the Wilson
tariff law. The tariff might be re-
duced half on raw wool and from
20 to 40 per cent, on wooden goods
the tariff being SO high as to be
robbery of the American people for
the benefit of the manufacturers
and Bryan ought to be bright
enough to see where the trouble lies.

Thomas Brooks at ReeseVille

Our friend, Thomas Brooks, is a good
off hand talker and he has opinions and
expresses them. He was at Reeseville
recently, and this s what the Review
said of his visit:
Mr.. Thomas Brooks, general store
keeper and undertaken, of the City OF
Watertown made his appearance in ou1
village last Wednesday and from here
drOv to his summer resort on the golden
edge of Mud Lake.
Regardless Of the fact that Mr.. Brooks
hair is as white as the drifting snow, he
is smarter than he was sixty five years
ago. He thinks Reeseville is a very
healthy and beautiful village, and to live
here on one of our shady streets and tC
inhale the sweet and pure atmosphere
that sails between Lake Muddula and
Beaver Dam, would increase his natural
life three score years and more.
Mr.. Brooks is man of many years ex-
perience and can converse very intelli-
gently on all important questions that
are confronting the people of this great
commonwealth. While taking in the
sight3 of our little burg, Mr.. Brooks re-
marked, that if our merchants would be
a little more neighborly and spent little
more in advertising the advantages of
our village in furnishing homes and
manufacturing sights to the out side
world in few years we would have a
larger and better Reeseville. He also
stated that he thought God had done his
part to place our village on the list of
progressives and it is now up to our
business men to join hands and do their
part towards the upbuilding and uplift-
ing of our village.

Too Much Law and Precedent

Heretofore, there has been too
much law and precedents in our
courts and an absence of equity in
deciding cases. Laws have been
enacted in the interest of the legal
profession so that some unimport-
ant technicality could defeat justice.
There has been an awakening of
late and the people are making the
discovery that there are too many
laws and the courts are taking
knowledge of the fact. We have
honest, conscientious Judges but
they have been hampered for the
reason above stated and are break
ing away from the precedents es-
tablished in the past, which to a
great extent worked harm and in
justice to litigants especially if they
had not the means to employ legal
talent to compete with wealth,
which, often defeated justice by de-
lays until honest men were driven
out of court.

THE CIVIC CELEBRATION
1T is MORE THAN ITS NAME I'M
PLIES-EMBRACING MANY
DIGNIFIED FEATURES

Although the Fourth Of July is includ-
ed in the Minneapolis Civic Celebration,
July to s, the event is more cOmpre-
hensive and noteworthy than the term
implies. Several of the features are in
themselves of sufficient scope to be un~
dertakings which singly would be con-
sidered big affairs. There is to be an
industrial parade which will reflect the
commercial and business enterprise of
the northwest; historic pageant; I'M
dertaken on a more elaborate scale than
ever before in any city in the country;
water fete, in which it is proposed to
carefully reproduce in nearly full size
such ancient craft as the snip of Column
bus, the Mayfower, Cleopatra's barge,
! Greek galley, Roman trireme, etc.
The entire national guard Of the state is
| to be mobilized for two days and is to ap-
pear in a mammoth military parade on
the fourth of July.
There are incidental features such as
| a parade of uniformed fraternal march
ing bodies, an automobile floral parade,
a childrens' float parade and demonstra-
ton in which twenty-five thousand school
children appear. There are to be aqua
tic as we'll as overhead fireworks, and
aquatic as we'll as land sports, music by
twenty bands including concerts by the
famous Innes Orchestral Band of New
York, prize military drills, band tourn-
ament and lots of amusements including
circus and managerie.
Minneapolis is to decorate itself with
flowers for the occasion. Nicollet ave-
nue. is to be a court of honor twelve
blocks long with hanging flower gardens
in every window, stately pillars sur
mounted by flaming globes to form
colOnnade the entire distance. The tidy
little sum of 100000 is being spent in
preparations and all features are to be
free to the people.

DO SOMETHING SENATOR

Senator Cummings of Iowa, In a
recent speech, made the declaration
that the shadow of a bloody revo-
luton hangs over the United States.
He said in part: within a decade
we will see whether the grievances
of today will be settled by law or by
the manner that has been in exls-
tence for 2 900 years-the revolu-
ton of violence and terror and
bloodshed.
THE greatest problem that we
are facing today is the question OF
distribution of the vast wealth OF
the nation.
Il do not for a moment suggest
the equality Of fortune. The open
ness of opportunity IS what is
needed in this country today. Un-
til recently the law of competition,
which is the survival of the httest,
had ruled the commerce of this
country. Now the business is be-
ing concentrated into the hands Of
a few, and the vast opportunity
that once existed is being taken
away"
Why doesn't Cummings and his
ilsurgent friends in congress do
something to change conditions and
prevent revolution? He and the
likes of him are doing all they can
to hasten it.
