Modest Homes for the Cabinet

The secretary of agriculture, Mr.
Houston, and the secretary OF war,
Mr.. Garrison, have just rented their
permanent homes and these are SO
modest in their proportions, ana
while in the fashionable quarter OF
the CITY, SO off the really fashionable
avenues that one may we'll believe
the story that the members OF the
cabinet have entered into an agree
ment to rent no house in excess OF
$4,000 a year rental, that one and all
NAV be more or less on an equality.
Such modest homes Washington
has not known of the cabinet in
long time. Apparently the members
are men of very limited extra means
and so dependent mostly on their
salaries, $4,000 year, and they viii
try TO live within their income.
The sum of $4,000 year does not in
Washington rent much of home.
For ordinary purposes such a home
would be comfortable enough, but
cabinet member is expected to enter
tain a great DEAL and his house is
supposed to be large enough for tunc-
tons of considerable Importance.
Then Washington likes to show sand
the people of the United States like
to see the homes of the members OF
the cabinet, if they are magnificent.
All the sightseeing cars have been
disposed to make a tour of the oabi-
net residences and many tourists
have gazed with awe and admiration
at the splendid homes of Secretaries
Knox, Meyer, Wickersham, McVeagh,
Nagsl, stimson, all on the big avenu-
es Of the city.
The big sightseeing Washington
cars will now have to go into the
side streets to show the cabinet
houses and travel much out OF their
way to show the rather more ambiti-
GUS Wilson cabinet home OF Secre-
tary Daniels of the navy in far-away
Woodley park, of the Logan house,
rented by Secretary Bryan, an old
fashioned brick house of moderate
size, much needing paint, the only
thing redeeming this wornout house
being the spacious grounds, which
permit garden parties, one of which
the secretary has given Washing
ton fashion long ago left the Logan
house. 1t is to be feared the Bryan
house will not be shown much to
tourists being too far out of the way.

Let the FLAG Alone

There has been laid before Con-
gress resolution proposing a rather
radical alienation in the national
flag, What purpose it is proposed to
serve by the proposed change is not
clear nor is it likely to meet with
any widespread endorsement by the
American people
Advocates of the change propose to
retain the thirteen alternating red
and white stripes but would make
the entire Encouragement of the stars
on the blue field by placing the forty
eight representing the states now in
the Union in large circle. The fur
Their alienation as provided for in
the resolution is described in this
way: within said circle of 4S stars
shall be one largepointed star, con-
structed of smaller stars, which shall
symbolic. and represent our unparal-
leled Nation. In the center of said
star so CONSTRUCTED of smaller stars
shall be red circle, which shall rep
resent our colonial and insular pos
sessions"
Nothing in this scheme of altern
tons is likely to appeal strongly
enough 10 the American people TO
lead any considerable number of
them to endorse it, They are satisfi.
ed with the flag and ever have been
They honor and revere it. To them
1t is associated with the imperishable
achievements of patriotism and self
sacrifice. 1t is visible representation
of their national ideals and aspira-
tons. 1t was good enough for the ia.
theirs who founded this republic and
it ought to be good enough for those
who follow after as long as the repub
lie shall endure. 1t Is as Webster de
clared decades ago known and hon.
ored throughout the world" 4
The national flag should not be the
sport OF whim, caprice or misguided
sentiment. 1t is too precious for that.

WILL HAVE NO GOODS TO OFFER
View of a Democratic Senator Re
gardina the Political Outlook.

That means good.by to the bull
moose party" remarked a democra.
tic senator when the test vote was
announced in the Senate last week,
by which, with the aid of a progress
sive republican, the democrats de-
feated the effort for open committee
hearings on the tariff bill.
He went on to explain his remarks
In this wise: The next campaigns.
congressional and national, will be
fought out on the tariff. II our tariff
legislation works out in its practical
business effect as we believe 1t will.
We will win and remain in power.
The democratic party will be the ex.
ponent of low revenue tariff.
The old line republicans will stand
for protective tariff. II business
goes wrong under out new law. the
old line republicans will benefit
Therefore. il looks TO me as IL the
fight must If necessity be between
the high and low tariff men.
III such is to be the issue the bull
moosers have no goods to offer. On
the tariff question they are neither
flesh, fowl nor good red herring
They will be shooting at the sky.

stand and for which we stood long
before the progressives tagged on

lining up the voters. "-Washington

Renovatlna Rural Schools

The little red schoolhouse with its
hard seats, high desks, inadequate
ventilation and meager equipment
must go. In its place there must be
schools with adjustable desks and
seats, provision for adequate heating
and ventilation, improved sanitary
conditions, and school equipment that
is up-to-date Many rural schools of
the future will have a work room ad
joining the study room where instruc-
ton may be given in elementary car
pentry, sewing, cooking and serving
food, seed testing, and other activi-
ties closely related to rural life.
There must be a change also in in
struction from square root and com
pound proportion to practical farm ac-
counts; from rules of grammar to a
study of insects. birds and plants of
Vermont; from the geography of the
book to that of the school yard and
neighborhood.
A great step toward renovating ru-
raj life will come when teachers I'M
derstand their pupils, when they rea-
lie that their mission is not so much
to teach subjects as to train and as
sist children into the full develop
ment Of their natural powers. The
conservation of rural children is more
to be desired than the preservation of
the mysticism and traditions that
cling about the little red school
house.
Where the need for trained leaders
and efficient teachers is greatest
there should be the best, not the poor
est, teachers. Never before have the
rural teachers of - Vermont had so
many opportunities offered them by
khdlebury college for equipping
themselves for their work than dur
ing the coming summer session of the
college. instruction in rural pedago-
81. the training OF children, nature
sttdy, Vermont geography, practical
drawing metal craft, food study and
home-naking, and other subjects are
provided especially to meet the needs
OF this class OF rural workers.
A teacher who is really alive TO her
opportunities as a trained rural lead
er must recognize that time and ef-
fort spent in the pursuit OF these sub
1ects for six weeks mean not cplv
more efficient teaching on her part
but also a real start toward renovat-
Ing rural life In the state.

FRANK E. HOWE, Editor and Pub
BENNINGTON, VT, MAY 81, 1913.

The proposed amendments to the
village bylaws are published in the
Banner today. The special village
meeting to take action upon these
amendments is called for Monday af-
ternoon at l o'clock. If the voters
will take some of the time interven-
ing between the publication of the
Banner this afternoon and the hour
set for the meeting Monday afternoon
to carefully read the amendments
they will be better qualified to take
intelligent action at the meeting.
There are other important matters to
come before the meeting and there
should be a good attendance of citi-
zens.

Working Of Tax Law illustrated.

One of the earliest returns from
tax listing is furnished by the town
of Enosburg and the working of
the section of the law abolishing
offsets is to be studied in conse
quence. From the report of the
Enosburg listers we learn that
while the real estate valuation show
ed a slight decrease from causes
which are explained by The Standard
OF that town, the personal property
appraisal is three and one-half
times as large as 1t was in the
preceding year or $3S0,560 as
against $l17,S65 for the year 1912.
In as much as personal property
valuations in Vermont were wont
to be in the decreasing scale for
years, probably in Enosburg as well
as In the other towns and cities. II
may be taken for granted that the
great increase this year was due sole
iy to the abolishing of offsets. AS a
result the Enosburg grand list has
Jumped by S1,112.50. thus making a
basis for taxation on which II ought
to be possible to get along on
greatly reduced tax rate. Surely
the adding TO the burden of taxation
removal of offsets ought to be balanc-
ed in part by the lessening of the
rate OF taxation, just as should fol
low in every Vermont city and town
where personal property valuation
jumps because of the inability to
Offset it for debts owing. And every
community is likely to have an in.
creased grand list as the result of
the administration of the new law

chaneino Tastes In Perfumes.

Perfumes were In common use In
the ancient world, but it is curious to
notice how views have changed as to
the pleasantness or otherwise of vari-
Gus odors. The smell Of aloes is now
considered disagreeable by the majori-
ty Of people, but in the old days aloes,
both as solid extract and as wood,
formed staple perfume or aromatic.
Saffron. too, was the most popular per-
fume of the Romans and was much in
favor in England until about the
sixteenth century. But who would
tolerate the smell of saffron about
house or person NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

THE CAMPFIRE.
II Is Said to Have Been the Origin Of
the Smelling Furnace.

the Smelling Furnace.
The origin of the smelling furnace
was traced in a recent lecture to the
campfire. If by chance lump of ore.
either of copper carbonate, tinstone or
brown iron ore or hematite had been
one Of the ring Of stones surrounding
the camp or domestic fire and had acct
dentally become embedded in its en-
bers, it would be reduced to metal.
The metals which occur-native cop
per, gold and iron-were the first to
be known TO man In the localities in
which they occurred, but until the art
of smelling metals had been invented
the discovery and use of the native
metals were insufficient to effect to
any great extent the old stone age cul.
ture.
Gold, though doubtless the first
metal to be known in many localities.
owing to its wide distribution In the
sands of rivers, was useless for any
practical purpose Copper, however,
or an alloy of the metal with tin. an
timony, or arsenic, was extracted from
ores at very remote period, and it or
its alloy was first to be applied TO
practical use.
In fact the first metal to be obtain
