We are very much prone 10

we estimate the value of our
own services. 4 man who j.
incapable of making living
for himself and family believes
that most men should b. in tn
same boat with himself. H.
does not estimate the value of a
man time in preparing him
self for a position requiring
study and skill, but wants To
place him on the same plane as
himself. Such men are prone
to tell others what they should
do and how they should live.
They are sour on the world ami
il gives them a great pain ~
see others prosper while they
make no Roadway themselves.

SUNDAY CLOSING
Attempt Made In Barre Was Not En-
tirely Successful


Barre, April 8.--Fruit stores in diff
ferent quarters Of the city did not
share in the Sunday sale of cigars,
ice cream and soft drinks yesterday.
Seven dealers, who were interviewed
this morning said they had been re-
quested by the aldermanic license com
mittee and a policeman to remain
closed during the Sabbath. Many Of
them said they had noticed that drug
stores were open during the day
Lunch rooms and restaurants also ex-
tended their weekday welcome to the
transient hungry and others.
In number of instances, 1t is said,
licenses under which the fruit dealers
have been doing business throughout
the year expired April l. Although 1t
is contended that the permits hold
good until another application for IL
cense Is refused or granted by the
city council. 1t Is understood that a
number Of applications viii be consid-
cred at the regular meeting OF the city
council tonight.
Dealers in fruit who also sell Ice
cream and tobacco, were not at all
pleased with the situation today. One
man who complied with the commit
tees request yesterday stated today
that his store would be open to the
public next Sunday. Another declar-
ed that the dealers would band to-
gether and see that everything Is clos
ed up tighter than drum on Sab
baths to come. He intimated that
even the electric cars would cease to
ply their course between the two cit
les. For the life of them, they say,
they can't see the justice Of allowing
one dealer to sell goods to the exclu-
sion of another. who handles the same
class of wares In this connection,
however. all of the fruit store owners
express willingness to close of the
same rule is observed everywhere
