1t was rather odd that Vermont, one
OF the two states carried by Taft in
the presidential election, should have
sent speakers into Michigan to argue
in behalf of the Progressive party in
the state election this week, but num-
Der of Vermont's "livest wires" pollti-
cally speaking, have been on the stump
there for some weeks. That the party
should have fallen off in its vote on
the state ticket is not 50 much the fault
of the speakers as due to the change
in conditions.

This il the season when persons with
ordinary common sense and thoughttul-
ness will keep off the reviving grass ol
the lawns and also, unfortunately, when
people without that common sense and
thoughtfulness will continue to tread
down the tender blades. II there is any
considerable number of the latter in
Barre, then the lawns are bound to
suffer this summer, as they have suf-
fered in the past; but We are in hopes
the lesson may have been learned by 4
part of the thoughtless.
This applies particularly to the lawns
on public grounds, but it is also apple

IT'S said that the Boston Association
of Vermonters is much perturbed for
fear that there WIZ be no snow avail
able for the annual sugarin'-of party
in Boston later in the month. But let
the mourning cease. Snow or no snow,
these expatriated Vermonters can have
their sugarin' of if they follow the plan
of Barre man who was in a similar
dilemma. This man wanted snow and he
wanted it badly and he tramped all over
the section, but all in vain. Then it was
suggested to him that chopped ice, well
packed down in the dish would serve
the purpose He tried it. The idea was
good. The syrup "laid" almost as good
as it does on snow. The sugarin' party
went off as well as if there had been Il
whole continent of snow.
Therefore, let someone make the sug
gestion to the Boston Association of
Nermonters. If ice is not at too great
a premium in Boston, the annual sugar
in off can be held as usual and vita
no drawbacks.

EARLY BLAZE
 AT EAGLE HALL

The splendid efficiency of the Nome fire department was again demon strated this morning at ten o'clock when an alarm of fire was turned in from Eagle hall.
 CT Nicely had the horses out for their morning exrcise. At the first tap of the bell Nicely started for the fire house and as he came up the doors were swung open % that he could back in under the harness.
 Chief Haughey and his men were at their stations when the powerful horses swung into place beneath the automatic harness drop. A few buck les snapped, a word to the well train ed animals and with the nremen mak- Ing jump for the hose wagon the apparatus went out of the fire station on the run.
 Chairman Moller of the Ire commit tee of the city council saw the de- purtmcnt as 1t responded to the alarm and wns promptly on hand to assist in the direction of his men.
 Az soon as the news spread that ths blaze was at Eagle hall there was considerable excitement evinced as the destruction of this costly and pop ular building would mean a great loss to Nome. Also the opening of th~ league baseball season ts scheduled to take place there tonight and any ac- cI,lcnt to the diamond would have dis appointed hundreds of expectant fans.
 Fortunately there was little cause for worry. The fire was confined |" the smokcstnck of the building and the prompt arrival of the fire hghters with their chemical put an end to the blaze and all cause for apprehension.
 Two lines of hose were run out. but the water was not turned on as there wns no need of 1t and in less than ten minutes the fire apparatus was back In it's quarters and tho well trained men and horses which make tho department so efficient were again waiting for the next summons to ac- ton.
