PRESIDENT IN BRATTLEBORO
Eight Minutes on PIatfOrm-S,5OO Peo-
pie Welcome Him.

Brattleboro. Oct. lover $500 people
gathered at Island Park this afternoon
to welcome President and Mrs, Taft,
who are on an automobile tour through
Vermont, The President spoke very
briefly and was on the platform exactly
eight minutes. Upon his arrival in Brat
tloboro the President and his party was
escorted to the home of Col. and Mrs.
J. Gray Estey where luncheon was
served.
President Taft was met at Whining
ton by Governor Allen NJ. Fletcher who
extended the freedom OF the common
wealth to the chief executive and well
coined him not only as the President OF
the country, but as a grandson Of Yer
mont. The presidential party was met
at North Adams, Mass. and escorted
across the State line into Vermont by
Clarke G. Fits of Brattleboro, Adjt.-
Gen. Lee s. 11llotson of st. Adams and
Chairman Frank c. Williams of the re.
publican State committee.
Leaving that town at 11:3O a. m, the
route over the mountain was followed
and the presidential party arrived In
Wilmington at 1876. where he spoke for
about five minutes in front of the Childs
Tavern to thrOng of about one thou
SAND persons. Scores of school girls DRESS
ed in white and carrying flags. and
flowers, greeted the President and Mrs

for conserving and developing the re-
sources of the state.
The experience of the past two years
has shown that publicity is one Of the
most important factors in that matter.
The excellent work done by the publicity
department of the secretary of states
office with the small appropriation made
by the Legislature of 1910, has brought
such satisfactory and promising resultsthat
there is little doubt that that appropria-
ton will be largely increased at this ses-
sion. Leading men look on it as the most
desirable kind of advertising, the kind
that is certain to bring results. because
the state can furnish what its publicity
department advertiscs. 1t is well known
that the resources of the state are large
| ly undeveloped and that Vermonters
themselves are to a deplorabe extent
, ignorant of them The work of the publ
city department, with the cooperation of
those who are interested in the develop
| ment of the State, is steadily bringing
to light information that can be used
with beneficial results. II a sufficient
| appropriation is made to enable that de-
partment to put the information in proper
! form and give it extensive circulation.
! Some important railroad legislation
| is expected to come up at an early
date, but no details of what may be
looked for are Yet obtainable Rail
road Development and industrial de-
| velopment will go along together and
there are not wanting c')dcnces that
/ the great railroads are looking to Ner-
mont as "A field that is likely to he
greatly enlarged within Il short time.
| In the formulation of Legislation to
| carry out party pledges, the leaders
of the Legislature will come to gem
eral knowledge, more than in strictly
| partisan matters that may arise.
Among the men who may be expected
to have a prominent place in this good
work is Col. r. :. Billings of Wood
stock, whose experience and ac-
complishments in 1910 entitle him to
be looked upon as one Of the most i'm =
! portant and influential members of tho
present House, not because he aspires
to position Of leadership but because
he is qualified for it.

Georgia Tech Boys
Must Behave

Atlanta, Sept. 9.-The Atlanta
theatre-goers, backed by the SEN
timent of the theatrical manage
ment, have arisen in vigorous
protest against the resumption of
the rowdyism, usually led by
Georgia Tech student. which has
kept the galleries in an uproar
on so many occasions.
When the Atlanta Theatre
opened last week the manage
ment, although no fault of its
own, didn't get its gallery police
men in time, and the noise was
shameful. Occasionally other
people join in the disturbance,
but the prevailing sense for sew
eral years past has been that the
Tech boys are the ring-leaders,
and following the scenes of last
week the edict has gone out that
they have got to behave them
selves.
The theatrical season this year
promises to be a brilliant one.
Among the attractions already
dated for the AtlantaTheatre dur
ing this month and the early part
of October are "The Old Home
stead, " "The Conf e S 81 o n, ="
Naughty Marietta, Fields
