Why Savings Banks Are
EasenfiaI

Because people having money to
invest are often tempted by designing
persons to go invo schemes which,
while promising large returns, usually
bring disaster.
Probably there are no more shrewd,
far sighted, conservative Investors of
money than successful life insurance.
companies.
They employ expert men-men who
make the study Of investments their
life work; who pass upon all applica-
tions for loans and Investments; and
it is fact which anyone can verify
by getting the insurance companies
reports, that four to five per cent
interest is all these companies are
able to make their loans average.
Those rchemers who would go to
unsophisticated women or inexperi-
enced men and tell them that they
could just as vel get six per cent ae
four, well know that if their schemes
were solid, substantial and safe, they
could borrow money by the million
from these life insurance companies.
The Lamoille County Savings Bank
and Trust Company IF Hyde Park
never takes a note paying over six
per cent.
If any person brings paper to that
bank which will pay more than six
per cent, it turns It down, because it
wants no better evidence that it is
dangerous than the fact that it offers
to pay more than six per cent.
What is the result?
In it's more than twenty three years
of existence, this bank has never lost
a dollar by poor note.
"Safety rather than high rates OF
interest" is it's motto; and, knowing
this, depositors, not only from Yer.
mont, but from every State in the
Union Except three) select the Hyde
Park Bank as place of deposit for
their savings.
You can send your funds there by
mail with absolute safety, and it is
perfectly safe to send them either ir
registered letter, postal money order
bank draft, personal check, or ex
press money order.
During the entire existence of the
Hyde Park Bank, not dollar sent tt
it by mail has ever been lost
This bank pays four per cent, com
pounded semi-annually, and pays al
taxes.

MEMORIAL DAY.

Tomorrow we celebrate the only
day set aside in commemoration of
the great civil war. 1t is not like
the other holidays enjoyed in Ameri-
ca. 1t is not dedicated to the same
purpose. 1t is more than decora-
tion day. It is more than Memorial
day. 1t is National Funeral day.
The Monitor deplores the tendency
of many to turn the day into gener.
al gala day of sports. Instead of di
verting the minds of the public from
the meaning and purpose of the day it
appeals to the Monitor that every pa
triotic citizen should lend his aid to
the G. A. r. and similar organiza-
tions whose object it is to educate
the youth of our nation in patriotism.
AS the Monitor comprehends the
meaning of Memorial day it is not
merely sentimental matter of deco
rating the graves of departed soldiers.
It is day on which we should stop
our mad race for the dollar and teach
the generations since the war about
the events of 81.
Memorial day is not day set aside
so much for the veteran. living OF
dead, as it is day set aside for those
of US who had no part in the great
war, day on which we are to pay
homage to the memory of those who
fought that we might live in a united
nation, day on which we are tt
learn and live for a day, if possible
in the spirit that breathes of patriot
ism and duty. Let US get back to the
first principles of Memorial day ant
make it day of sober consideration O
the debt we owe "the boys in blue. >

Partisan Sage
Nothing Like it for Removing

The Monitor is informed that Sum-
ner Wilcox of Morgan is a candidate
for senator from the north end of
the county. Morgan has never had a
senator we understand and believes it
is entitled to one. This entrance of a
senatorial candidate in opposition to
E. c. Blanchard of Newport is a sur
prise to many. In the south end of
the county the senatorial situation
remains the same. Glover has two
candidates. which has split the town,
and no progress toward home settle,
ment of the contest is yet in sight.

From the First District.

In answer to wide spread demand
from different parts of the second
congressional district, Judge F. D.
Thompson of Barton has announced
his candidacy for Congress as suces-
sor to Hon. Frank Plumley, the pres
ent incumbent. Mr.. Thompson is one
of the strong, able and clean young
men of the state and has a host of
trends who will work earnestly for
his nomination in the second district.
Worthwhile Messenger.
A Three Cornered Fight.
Ernest w. Gibson's determination
to run for Congress in the second dis
trict looks like a revolt within a re-
volt; and the movement goes on re-
voting. A few of these gentlemen
will have to curb their personal as
pirations.-Barre Times.

they must be acknowledged to be

Isaiah's Prophecy of Peace.

"And he shall judge among the
nations and shall rebuke many peo-
pie and they shall beat their swords
into plowshares and their spears into
pruning hooks: nation shall not lift
up sword against nation, neither shall
they learn war any more.' Isaiah
II, 4.
There's power that acts like leaven
At work in the heart of man.
That has slowly been changing his
nature
Since the time that his life began:
1t is making the soul of the human
Out of the heart of the beast,
And through words and deeds that are
noble
Is the charm of the magic increased.
1t touches the heart with pity
When we mingle with those who weep.
And it wakens compassion and con-
science
Into life from their primal sleep:
Twill foster the finer feelings,
Yet the sterner virtues keep,
And make the men who feel it
Self-denying, tenacious and brave:
But notes that are cheerful and light.

Will chord with deep tones that are
grave,
And the fountain of hope ever flow

The feet of the weary ones lave.
And some there are now who are SOW
ing
The seeds of that quickening power,
That would rise though the brake of
affection
And put for the thorn flower:
And compassion, and conscience, and
courage,
!. Are allies which urge on in the fight,
Which hope will not let US surrender,
Till the savage shall yield to the
} right:
Strong struggle the forces for evil
And difficult task they bespeak,
No pathway that angels have opened
Leads up to the goal that we seek.
