PROGRESSIVE RALLY.
County Organization Perfected
TorchIight Parade in Evening.

One of the largest rallies ever held in
Middlebury took place in the town hall
on Wednesday evening. Long before
the hour set for the Progressive meet
ing crowds filed into the hall and at 8
O'Clock it was impossible to get seat
and standing room was at premium
and many were unable to get inside the
hall. The forming of county organi-
zation at four O'Clock in the afternoon
was the principal business. Fourteen
towns in the county were represented
E. L. Kelley of Salisbury called the
meeting to order and the following per-
manent officers were elected: Rev.
B. b. Bosworth of Bristol was chosen
chairman; DR.. H. L. Averill of Middle
bury secretary; A. P. Booth of Ferris
burgh treasurer. An executive com
mittee comprising the above officers
and Prof. Raymond Mcfarland of Mid
debury, l.. B. Needham of Orwell
Austin Beach of Salisbury and George
G. Ross of Vergennes was elected.
E. l.. Kelley was chosen State commit
teeman for Addison county. Plans for
the permanent organization were dis
cused and short talks were given by
number of those present.
At Z O'Clock came the parade headed
by M. 7. Butterfield as chief marshal
and r. L. Heminway of Bridport and
Frank DeLong of Cornwall as aides, the
Middlebury band, members of the ladies'
Progressive club of Middlebury college
and several from William P Russell
post, G. A. R., in automobiles, members
of the local Progressive club carrying
torches, Bristol band, Bristol Pro-
gressive club, college club and drum
corps, delegations from Vergennes,
Ferrisburgh, Bridport, and several
other towns, there being about 300 in
line. The parade formed at the town
hall and marched to Main street where
they countermarched, to Pleasant street
to Addison house, to town hall. Rev.
B. B. Bosworth called the meeting to
order and after the singing of "Amer-
lea" by the audience made short ad-
dress, introducing the speaker of the
evening, Mr.. l.. B. Austin of Atlanta,
Ga. Mr.. Austin gave very interest
ing and pleasing address, being con-
interrupted by applause. He
spoke feelingly of the civil war and
likened Col. Roosevelt to Abraham
Lincoln. Altogether it was one of the
most successful rallies ever held in
and the members of the
local Progressive club deserve much
credit for their untiring efforts in this
work.

Value of a Car Ticket.

Thomas A. Winterrowd, city build
ing inspector, believes he has the
prize "tightwad' story.
A North Delaware street man called
Winterrowd by telephone.

you to have an application for a build
ing permit made out ready for her, SO
she can get right down to the city

INDIVIDUAL FACTOR IN HEALTH
Something to Which In This Genera
ton Too Little Attention Has
Been Devoted.

The greatest event in medicine was
the discovery of the germ origin of a
large number of diseases.
That discovery has already enabled
the world to stamp out several epi-
denies, and in time will enable us to
stamp out all contagious diseases.
But for that splendid advance, a
price was paid-as always. A part
of that price was the neglect of the
individual factor in resistance to dis
ease.
There are infections which no
health can avoid. But In larger pro-
portion of cases a person in full vigor
and training will pass unharmed
through infections which will over
whelm a weaker individual
We are just now rediscovering the
value of physical vigor and vitality, of
the health which is not merely an alb
sence of infectious disease but a joy
GUS and capable performance of every
reasonable task
Some day, afar off, we may COM
bine the sanitary perfection of the
Panama Canal zone with the physical
perfection of the ancient Greeks. To
help even a little in bringing about
such an event is worth all the efforts
we can put forth.

RACE NOT GOING BACKWARD
Proof That the Men Of Today Are at
Least Taller In Stature Than
Their Ancestors.

Some time ago when it was wished
to use some ancient suits of English
armor for pageant it was found that
they were all too small for the use of
the average man. Now comes q sim
liar story from Germany. The Gus
todian of castle near Innsbruck, a
man slightly under the average
height, says that he has tried on every
suit of armor in the castle and that
they are all too small for him. The
custodian of the castle of Voduz, who
Is of still lesser stature, says the same
thing of the armor under his care, and
we are reminded of the low doors and
short beds that are so distinguishing
feature of old Gothic houses.
Is 1t possible that the human race
Is increasing in stature? 1t would
seem so. We can hardly account for
this on the ground of athletics, seeing
that the old knightly pirates of the
days of chivalry were athletic enough.
Physical vigor was their stock in
trade.
1t is said that very few men now
adays can draw the old long bows of
the English archers, the bows that
were capable of sending an arrow
through steel breastplate. But so
far as stature is concerned we seem
to have the better of our buccaneer-
ing ancestors.

Eye For Business.

In one of the missions along North
Ninth street the other evening sat a
man, who apparently had tarried too
long in drinking places. AS the meet
ing advanced he liyened up and put
quarter in the tambourne as it was
passed along. This caused a chorus
of approval from the workers, one of
HON went down to the man and be-
sought him to give a testimony.
After some hesitation the man
arose to his feet and in a choked
voice related his experiences. Finally
he spoke of the many saloons catering
to the thirst and stated his desire to
see all, excepting one, put out of busi-
ness. A chorus of "Amens" greeted
this statement, but not quite satisfied
one of the. workers asked him why
he would leave one and destroy all
the rest. Slowly the man rumbled
forth, so / could run it myself

low TO TAKE A SUN BATH
Treatment Is Declared to Be a Sure
Cure for Many Varieties Of the
Ailments Of Humanity.

The sun bath is rapidly gaining
popularity. 1t was not unknown to
ne Romans, who INDUCED in sun
tlths to cure gout and rheumatism.
The buildings they erected in their
villas for the sunray treatment were
styled solariums.
All that is needed is the sun; but
1t should not be allowed to beat down
upon the head, which should be COW
cred. The prospective sun-bather
should get into an ordinary bathing
costume and lie down in q convenient
spot on rug. Care should be taken
to secure a position we'll out of the
wind, and, of course, the body must
be moved about every ten minutes to
avoid undue burning of any specific
part Of the anatomy. Also, bath
should never by any chance last
longer than an hour. Dizziness, ex-
treme excitement, even faintness will
be the inevitable result should this
warning be disregarded.
The sun bath is said to be an al
most infallible cure for certain skin
diseases, for undue corpulence and
rundown nerves.
Perhaps the cult of the sun bath is
more popular at a small place near
Berlin, where the adherents of the
new and simple cure have formed
themselves into an association.

GOOD HORSES STILL NEEDED
Raisers May Have Little Fear That
the Supply Is Shortly Likely to
Exceed the Demand.

The recent war game demonstrated
the dearth of horses suitable for
months in a section once famous for
The excellence of its native horses.
This community was secured for suit
able animals, and none was to be had,
md the government agents said that
the same conditions obtain elsewhere
throughout the country, handicapping
the army authorities greatly.
There is the germ of profitable
idea for our farmers in these facts.
The man who has grazing facilities,
and who will turn a part of his en-
deavors to the raising of general
purpose type of saddle horse, will not
only reap a substantial money re-
ward, but will perform a patriotic
mission, not for the army, but for hu-
manity.
The "honk" of the motor car need
bring no fears to the men who will
go into the perfecting Of a type of
horse to be known as the York state
saddle horse. The aeroplane need
cast no shadows over the project. I'm
prove the horse. The better he be-
comes adapted to mans wants the
more docile and safe, the more beau
tiful, the greater will the demand for
him grow.-Troy Standard Press.

DREAMS PROTECT OUR SLEEP
Reasonable Explanation OF Events
Which Have Been a Puzzle to
the Minds Of Students.

Dreams seem a mere play OF imag-
lnation without any value-the more
as every serious student has recog-
nized that 1t Is absurd to think that
dreams have any prophetic character.
But. in recent times, science has dis
covered the probable purpose of the
dreams, and has found In this case
again that nature does not give to us
anything which Is superfluous
In the present view of science.
dreams fulfill the purpose of pro-
tecting our sleep, and this end
Is reached by those apparently
meaningless flights Of the imagi-
nation. Most dreams start from
some disturbance or excitement
of our organism. Something may
press on US, or touch us, or we may
hear a sound, or we may have some
digestive trouble, or we may lie in
an uncomfortable position, and SO on.
Any such disturbance would excite the
mind and would easily lead to
breaking up Of the sleep which is nee
essary for us in order to be fresh for
the next days work.
The dream provides the solution. In
creating a fantastic background for
that disturbance, by which the inner
excitement becomes adapted to a
whole situation In which 1t fits
well. our efforts to remove it
becomes sidetracked and the sleep
can go on without interruption.
We may have thrown off a
blanket and feel cold. Our dream
brings us to snowy winter land
scape in the midst of the cold winter
day, where we begin to skate, and all
the coldness is then 30 natural and
well adjusted to the whole illusory ex-
perience that our mind moves on
without destroying the sleep.-From
St. Nicholas

MADE GOOD aADv AFTER ALL
Comment Of Physician Seems to Con-
tain Reflection on the CurIos-
lty of the Woman.

Physicians as a rule are strongly op-
posed to published advertising. This
aversion Is founded on an old rule of
medical ethics and is carried to the
extreme Of making doctor who
breaks 1t an object of suspicion in the
eyes of his fellow practitioners.
Apropos of this, is the story which
Dr. w. H. Hill told on himself, the

1t may be because / am growing old

return to brilliant sunshine. While
that is what prefer of course admit
that the great, the picturesque, the
atriking storm is magnificent sub
ject for artistic treatment and is
well worthy of the efforts of great
artist.
Il am not quite SO sure, however,
about the dreary day in which nothing
IS seen, in which the landscape does
lot change, in which there is steady
Jut not violent downpour of rain.
