Chance for Better Judges.
(St. Johnsbury Caledonian.1

The Vermont Tribune, doubtless in
semi authoritative way, saws it is not
impossible the governor of Vermont
may have to appoint the justices of
the supreme court for the next two
years owing to their terms being def
nltely fixed at two years and the
change in the time for the meeting of
the Legislature making a vacancy
come while that body is not in SEES
sion. The Tribune says, cit suggests
perhaps-who knows?-the infusion of
fresh and vigorous blood into the iu
dicial branch of the state government
and consequent acceleration of the
business Of that highly important de
partment.
Undoubtedly Gov. Fletcher has a
correct idea regarding his duties in
this matter and viii have to appoint the
Justices of the supreme court wear
from next October for term of two
years. If this appointment will in
fuse fresh and vigorous blood into
the judicial branch of the state gov
eminent the people viii be well
pleased. In saying this we do not
wish TO olScredlt the supreme court Of
the state as its justices are strong
men, whose opinions have much
weight, in the judicial circles of the
country. But it is different with the
superior court of the state Politics
have placed on the bench of that court
some very incompetent and unfit men.
men who had very little standing in
their profession and who are standing
no higher in their present positions.
There are some capable and desirable
men on the superior bench, but not
enough to fill the positions on the SUI
preme bench in case it should suddenly
become vacant and Governor Fletcher
will do the state good service if he
acts with his usual independence and
courage and cleans up the bench of
the superior court OF the state.

THE WORLDS SUNDAY SCHOOLS.

AT Zurich, Switzerland, the seventh
convention of Sunday schools of the
world is convened. 1t is one of the big
meetings of the year. All nations. all
tongues, and nearly all denominations
are there. Within the past decade the
Sunday school has regained its old
significance. Clergymen and laymen
saw the congregations dwindling. es-
peclally in the attendance of men: they
saw the diminution of interest in the
ministry as a vocation; they saw their
churches losing in the battle with ma
terlalism, and they realized that civic
movement and uplift enterprises and
the whole phifanthropic program meant
little IN the matter of religion; it was
good humanity, but it was not spiritual
ity. Hence, the wise men of the church
turned to the Sunday school Just as
economists and social rcformers turned
to education for the production of
good citizens. The Sunday school is
more intense, more productive, more
stimulating, and made to meet the
needs of generation used to talking
machines and moving pictures.
Thus it has come to be that the Sun
day school is the recruiting station of
the new army of religion. And the
Zurich convention becomes one of the
great events of a progressive year.

Needs of Rural Communities.

Nol. AlbanS Messenger
President Thomas of Middlehurv col
lege gets substantiation for his state
ment that what the rural communities
need IS men of education and purpose
who will devote themselves to the work
of uplift, in the words of John r
Howard, of Boston, who at meeting
where rural problems were being dis
cussed, declared: ''The rural population
IS without leadership. The most ener-
getlc having moved ON to the cities. the
residue represents a sort Of dead level
from which enterprise cannot be expect
ed In some communities this is un
doubtedly true, but there are also com
munltles right here in Vermont that are
lifting themselves from that dead level
almost by their own boot straps. But
progress would be quicker with little
of the outside help of the kind Presi-
dent Thomas suggests.

have an institution to which those al

the younger and more hopeful ones.

A Western Manufacturer Interesting
Remarks About Shoemaking and
Prices.

HTlCeS.
western shoe manufacturer, recent
y in Boston, visited the Beverly.
Mass, plant of the United Shoe Ma
hinerv company. On returning home
he wrote a letter to a representative
Of the company, and among other
hings he said: Your company GER
tainly has a most wonderful plant for
making most wonderful machinery.
With my mind back 80 years to my
father 5 shoe shop, where | sat with
six or eight benchmen making hand
scwed shoes, YOU can easily realize that
see more IN the making of this ma
chinerv OF extraordinary merit than the
present day shoemaker.
Gotten I hear the remark, shoes
cost too much, by people who do not
-eaIizc how cheap shoes really are and
that to the United Shoe Machinery
omrauv belongs the credit for the
better and cheaper shoes.
Father got eight dollars for pair
of hand-sewed shoes. ten dollars for
boots and twelve dollars for patent
leather tongue morocco leg boots, and
then leather was but half the price we
pay now. The shoemaker got 81 a pair
for fitting uppers and S. a pair for
hand-scwed bottoming. How would
these prices compare with the stronger
sewed Goodyear shoes of today, sold
Mt 81 pair. or half price, with leather
at double price?

ing public will ever wke up to realize
the great benefit your companv's ma

Those who want to get money with
out work will think up novel schemes
to accomplish that end. The most
gruesome we have heard of is the re-
cent one of the broken hearted man
who enters Boston undertaking es-
Establishments. and tells a story of hav-
ing a dear brother dead in Montpelier.
Having made arrangements with the
undertaken to go to Montpelier for the
body, he prefers a check which comes
to more than the charge for the jour
ney which the obliging undertaken
takes and returns the difference in
money only to find upon wiring Mont
pelier that no d" dear BROTHER is
dead, which news is soon verified by
finding the check is worthless.

Blue Mountain Male Academy.

1t is a well recognized fact that the
matter of sending boy away from
home where he will be without the in
fluence and the guiding hand of his par
ents, is a right serious proposition. A
boys first year off at school frequently
makes or unmakes his character; hence,
the selection of school is very i'm
portant matter to the parent.
The Sentinel believes that the Blue
Mountain Male Academy, presided over
by Prof. ]. E. Brown comes about as
near being the ideal school for the boy
who is to spend his first year away
from home, as can be found. Prof.
Brown gives every detail of the work
his personal attention, and he comes
just as nearly making the 300 boys
there his boys as possible. The disci-
pline is positive, tho not rigid and Sc
we're. Healthful conditions could hardly
be better, and the Sentinel unhesita
tingly commends this splendid institu
ton. There are quite number Of boys
there now from this county and imme
diate section. See advertisement II
