Wanted A Detention Farm.
The AdYance.N

According TO tho report Of Superin.
tendent Grout, SIS patients were ad.
mitted to the Waterbury state hospital
asst year, of which number l42 were
alcoholic and drug cases. All the com
3lned preachments in Vermont since
he birth of time have not given a
more vivid picture of conditions here
han DO these figures. 'Fhe ceaseless
'elteratiOn Of obvious truths is useless
low and here. and it is only necessary
ma proper to insistently urge that the
inc is dead ripe for the state to take
definite action to at least in some
measure check and alleviate this sort
II thing. Primarily, people who have
he desire will drink strong liquors as
long as they are manufactured and
sold, and in many cases will become
wards Of the state. If there was no
liquor manufactured and sold as a
beverage this condition would auto
matically cease to exist Now, how
ever, the state should establish q de-
tentiOn farm for the treatment of
these unfOrtunates where they can be
properly cared for apart from lunatics.
No consideration whatsoever should
prevent the state taking this action at
he earliest possible moment. 1t is a
lebt owing to those whom it has Elk
posed to the disease which af1iicts
them. Likewise, it should at once en-
let the most drastic possible law To
.ontrol and suppress poisonous and
habit forming drugs. As TO these mat
ters there should be no argument OF
hesitation whatever. Action should
re immediate and decisive

Il may never enter public office
again" was the startling statement of
Gov. Walsh of Massachusetts in ad-
dressing a gathering of Congregation
nj ministers in Boston Monday. "Too
many elections and too much politics,
the governor said, ''stife both proper
criticism and proper praise Of public
officials. l am conscious, however, of
having done my duty he continued.
/" and my refusal of some requests has
turned lifelong friends into enemies. -
The governor blamed annual elections
for the condition he described. 1t is
singular that MASSACHUSETTS, one of the
most progressive states in the Union
in many respects, should cling to the
annual elections, which keep the state
in continual turmoil. AS soon as az
election is held another campaign be
gins. Evidently Massachusetts is will
ing to be stirred up all the time, just
as Pennsylvania is willing to remain
corrupt and contented. -

The report of the Massachusetts
highway commission shows the need of
a "safetv first campaign and it dem
onstrates beyond question that it is
the man who walks rather than the
man who rides who suffers most from
automobile accidents. In Massachu-
setts for the year ending Nov. 30 mo-
toring was responsible for 229 deaths,
injuries to 401o persons and a total of
1861 accidents Of all kinds. Two
thirds of the people killed and over
half of those injured were pedestrians.

AMUSEMENT NOTES.
COMEDY AND TRAGEDY.
The Missouri Girl Has Sufficient Seri-
Gus Matter for Contrast.

Inv N4AaoOIAA S4Al has ottluC1eHL SeIl-
Gus Matter for Contrast.
The word comedy when applied TO
the, play, The Missouri. Girl, which
viii be presented in the Auditorium
Christmas afternQon and evening, is
more or less. 4 Inisnompr. A tragic
comedy is more descriptive Of the
play than the former. There is much
clean comedy in it, bnt ii is not al
together free from tragedy and the
two are blended happily.
r That is why The Missouri Girl
has been SO, popular all over the
United States for several years.
There is sufficient. serious mat
ter in it to afford a pleasing contrast
to. the fareicai side. Really funny in
cidents are numerous, but the audience
Is afforded a breathing spell at times
for the crisis and ceunter-sentimen of
the play. ..-..... .....
10 the phys success the great char
aeters of Zeke and Daisy contribute
much Of the comedy. They carry most
Of the burden of the production, but
while these two, are outstanding, other
characters of. the. play are equally ex-
cellent and on the whole. the cast is
well, balanced and sustained.

Hard Question to Settle.
bennington Banner.)

The offsets question is hard one
to settle. With offsets allowed lot
Of men take advantage of them to get
rid of paying taxes which they ought
to pay either in whole or in part
Without offsets a lot of men are com
PEELED TO pay taxes on property which
they do not own. As to which is
wiser men do not and never will
fagree. Very few of the states permit
offsets because of the chance they
give to avoid just taxation, but either
by law or custom ease up the tan
burden on personal property

Mrs. Anna Pritchard of South PouIt-
ney is making a complete recovery
from an unusual surgical operation.
sshe has been i'll over year with tn
hercHosis of the lower jaw, the dis
lease causing the jaw to ret away on
tirelv. About seven weeks. ago she
was taken to the Presbyterian hospital
in New York. The surgeons removed
the diseased flesh and bone and made
a new jaw by grating on a piece of
rib bone which they took from the
woman : side Recovery is naturally
slow, hut a healthy growth has begun
and ethe surgeons are very optimistic
as to final results.

rating expenses of the government lines
consumed s. per cent of their gross
revenues. Operating expenses of the
five private lines consumed only 800
per cent of their gross revenues. If
this ratio had been applied to the
state lines it would have meant a say
ing OF $I7,00o,G0o, while the ratio of
state lines if applied to the private
lines would have meant an increase in
their expenses of $4,000, 900.

knows that Crisco fried foods are better and that
the guests of his hotel cannot complain of these
foods being indigestible. He does this in spite
much as he gets for his meat scraps. Scientific
cooks the country over are using Crisco because
they understand it. They Judge a food product

Crisco is the choice of chefs, Domestic Scientists
