DR.. Work.

Feelin' sick and bad and blue
DR.. Works the man for you.
In the duty that he gives,
Life beyond the sadness lives,
And the pain and ache and care
Vanish into perfumed air,
Where the tender touch of ease
Takes the tremble from your knees,
Old DR.. Work, good DR.. Work,
Who laughs at pills and such,
And sets you going with smile
By some mysterious touch.
Pain and ache and got the grip
DR.. Work will make 'em trip.
The rheumatism and the gout
Pack up their satchels and get out
When he comes in to help you feel
That life's 80 earnest and 80 real
Men have no time to stop and play
Because they're feelin' bad today.
Old DR.. Work, wise DR.. Work,
Whose medicine is soul,
To keep you up and give you heart
And make you clean and whole.
To work, he says, and III be there,
To help you overcome your care,
Forget you're got that pain and
swing
Into the labor line, he'll sing,
And if you do, first thing you know
The pain and .ache and all will 60
And every drop of work you take
Is something for the systems sake.
Old DR.. Work, dear DR.. Work,
The poor mans aid and friend,
Whose cheerful inspiration helps
The heart keep up its end.

CURRENT COMMENT
Duty Well Done.

In returning a verdict of murder in the
first degree with capital punishment, the
jury in the Bosworth case discharged a
disagreeable duty in manner that viii
win general approval. If there was ever
cold-blooded, premeditated and re-
vengeful murder committed, Bosworth
committed it when he shot down poor
defenseless Mae Labelle. 1t is true THAI
the taking of Bosworths life will not
bring back the life of his victim, but
1t will give fair warning that the time
has not yet come in Vermont when hui
man life may be taken lightly, when q
yonug girl may be shot down in a public
place, in broad day, and the irresponsi.
BILE person who does the shooting may
expect no more severe punishment than
to be fed, cared for and coddled by the
state for the remainder of his life time.
1t was grave and heavy responsible
ity that rested on the shoulders of the
twelve men who sat in the jury box last
week. II was for them TO make the first
decision, following the adoption of new
lava law which shifts the solemn and
awful duty of saying whether or not a
human life shall be taken, from the
court to the jury. It is a matter of
satisfaction that Chittenden county's
jury system produced twelve men who
were strong enough to accept the re-
sponsibility squarely and to do their
duty as they honestly saw it.
The easy way would have been to
evade the responsibility, course that
the weak man invariably takes. The

institution could do much toward cut

TIE MCNAMARA GASES.

The great body of labor union men
OF the country who have given support
to the Mcnamara brothers were lust
about as much in the dark about the
true situation as were the people not al
filiated with unions, those who consid-
cred themselves in position to view the
case without bias; and for that reason
there will not be widespread reflection
on the union cause as a result of the
revelations made of the doings of some
officials of a certain union. IL was nat
ural that union men should have given
support, both financial and moral, to the
accused brothers, because of the affilia-
tion under a single great head of the
labor union movement; it would have
been more or less treason to their cause
to do otherwise. Yet, il must be ad.
mitted, in the light of yesterdays deyel-
opments at Los Angeles, that the enthu-
siasm of some labor leaders of the coun-
try was carried beyond the bounds OF
what seemed to be reason. Prosecution
did not mean persecution Zeal to Sc
cure evidence in the case was not an
evidence of hostility TO the cause OF
union labor, but it was rather TO punish
a criminal act. If that act was done
by groups or by individuals it made no
difference. Labor unions, as such, were
not the objects of attack. Therefore,
labor unions will not be called to meet
the penalty; it win be individuals. And
the cause of the union win not be set
back.

BARRE'S DEATH RATE: WHAT II
NIGHT BE.


Reference to the mortality statistics
of registration cities of the United
States census bureau, reveals that the
death rate in Barre for the year 1910
was 1879 per one thousand of population,
which was % per cent less than the
average death rate of the registration
area of the United States. By the same
statistics we are informed that the aver
age death rate in Rutland for the same
period was l6.7, or a trife higher than
the country's average, while Burlington's
rate was 1914, or much above the aver
age of the country. Barre's statistics
are highly creditable in view of the ma
ture of the chief industry, granite work
ing, in which the rate of mortality IS
considered to be higher than in many
other occupations. In respect to lung
troubles there seems to be no decrease
in the number of deaths from year to
year; but in the matter of epidemics
Barre is able to show remarkably
clean sheet. In fact, as we recall the
statistics the death rate has been grow.
