the exciting days which preceded and
followed the recent election in the state
Of Maine, when the first returns indicat-
ed that the ''drys" had been ousted from
their long-held position of power. Sub
seQuent returns, she said, proved that
the first scare was unnecessary. She pre-
scented a resolution approving the enact

impossible to import into dry" states
liquor to be used for unlawful purposes
This legislation, known popularity as the
Kenyon Sheppard bill, has been defended
by the leaders of the w. c. T. U. before
two committees of Congress during the

resolution was adopted unanimously.

Baron Hawk, slain with bullet from

giant hawks, kept of by respect for the
superior prowess Of the hawk now dead
and his ability to maintain his sole au-
thority. having found that lively feeding
ground deserted by its former master.
have dared to perch themselves on the
post Office tower. aiming to aggrandize
to themselves all the advantages OF the
easy living offered.
These two hawks, SO far, have made
little profit from the opportunity at

to win, secure and maintain that title is
now the first affair before those belliger-

then be free to enjoy the fruits of victory
until his right is disputed.

/ HOW TO DEVELOP

Clarke c. Fits Addressed Vermont As.

Boston, Dec. Is Conservation o.
natural resources as practical means
of keeping the best OF the energetic
young men and women at home in Yer.
mont was advocated by Clarke c. Fits
of Brattleboro, president of the Vermont
Bar association, in his address on "The
Development of Vermont" before the
Vermont ass iation of Boston at the
hotel Westminster last evening.
Mr. Fits declared Vermont can be
rebuilt industrally by making the
state attractive and that the whole prob
lem can finally be solved by locating
the factory near the farm.
"There is at least 2,000,000 of unde-
yeloped horsepower in Vermont that car
easily be developed, and ! frther urge
storage stations for the flood waters
which every spring go to waste. The
development of the Deerfield river would
save the hauling of l2,000,000 tons of
coal into Massachusetts each year and
] think this is as good as to locate a
coal mine. Surely. at least $4,000 horse
power can be developed every year. A
proper storage station at the head of
the Black river would make that stream
of immense value.

Charles H. Bradley. and participated in
by Prof Carroll w. Doten. Matt B.
Jones. A. w. DeGoosh, Richard NJ.
Bradley and w. D. Qumby.
Mr. Quimby outlined policy of buy
ing commodities which he believes would
help Vermont. He urged that the asso-
citation do something to encourage and
interest the boys so that they will stay
at home For those who come here, he
suggested the association start an en-
ployment bureau. He suggested that
the farmer be helped, saying that the
small Vermont shipper into Boston mas
at present no chance
You can't buy Vermont turkey in |
Boston and swear to it. suggest that |
all Vermont goods be tagged and I say |
to the boys from home, don't eat a

Prof. Doten expressed himself as fa-
voring the law passed in Vermont MAX
ing the remarriage of divorced people
a crime. He also believes women own
ing more than $500 worth of property
should be allowed to vote.
