While disavowing any intention to in
terfere with Montpelier's local option in
conduct of its own affairs, The Times
would respectfully suggest that if the
neighboring municipality is seeking a
durable, clean, not disagreeably noisy
and cheaperin-the.end permanent road
for its chief streets, it can find nothing
more satisfactory than a granite block
pavement with cement filing and cover
ing. And for illustration, Montpelier
can look at the permanent road on North
Main street in Barre, beginning at De-
pot square and running northerly to the
bridge at Blackwell street. In examin-
ing that section Of the highway, it
should be differentiated from the gran
tie block pavement which extends from
Depot square southerly because the lat
ter was laid many years ago and was
not laid with the cement covering, ae
cording to the more modern ideas of
road building. But even in the latter
case, the durability and the cleanliness
of a granite pavement are proven beyond
doubt.

The Barre committees that are pre-
pairing for the visit of the New England
Cemetery Superintendent association
later in the month on the occasion of
their annual convention are likely to find
prompt and open-hearted response to
their requests for rooming accommoda-
tions during the brief time that the
visitors will be in the city. While not
so many visitors are expected as were
here last summer during the visit of the
members of the Retail Monument Deal
ers' association, it is thought that ac-
commodations in large number of pri-
vate houses will be needed to care for
the superintendent. Therefore, the eff
forts of the local committees are deserv-
ing of hearty cooperation as the holding
OF the convention in Barre means much
to the granite industry.

that her AT of insanity was the result
Of brooding over her sisters unfortun-

The following special to the T.-R.
from Eldora tells Of Miss Crosbie's ar
rest:

gan shooting at crowd upon. the
streets
Using vile language, and threatening
to shoot the first person who attempted
to interfere with her, she held the
crowd at bay for some time. having
fired four shots from 32-caliber re-
voiver. Finally Albert Jahnson, a we'll
known citizen Of the town, slipped up
on the crazed woman. and. throwing
his arms about her. overpowered the
woman, who was taken to the county
Jail.
At the time Of her sisters arrest in
Marshalltown Miss Crosbie said that
she wanted to go to Independence with
her, but the request was denied. Many
believe that she brooded over this and
after dwelling on the subject for sew

forcing her desires upon the officers
here Fortunately all the shots went
random and no one was hurt. altho
pandemonium reigned for minute
during the fusilade OF revolver shots.
Sunday morning Miss Crosbie was
taken before the commissioners Of in

subject for treatment at the hospital
In Independence. where she was taken
by City Solicitor Carpenter. who is
also a member Of the board. making

lectable place among tho
A early fruits. Hanging yell
low, red or black from their
own stems. they have inspired the pen
of poets as well as the brush of famous
artists, and few other fruits have the
distinction of being the standard for the
beauteous coloring of lovely maidens'
lips.
Unhappily, the cherry season is short,
although California varieties have made
the fruit more familiar in the Eastern
markets than the smaller, but quite as
piQuant favored, native varieties ever
did, and those who find gastronomic de-
light in cherTies should take full ad-
vantage Of every opportunity to enjoy
them.
There is no preserved fruit which
gives surer promise of success in the
hands Of the amateur housewife than
cherries.
Here is the simple rule of a woman
who has made more than competence
for many years by putting up fruit
for special orders:
To each four pounds of cherries al
low between one and two pounds OF
sugar. There is danger of getting the
, fruit too sweet. and that means m
sipidity, for the fruit itself has so deli
cate a flavor that 1t does not require
much sugar.
Whether the cherries are to be pitted
or not is largely a matter of choice
Some prefer them simply plucked from
J the stems, with one or two left on the
stems added to each jar. Also some
cooks add to each jar one or two crack
ed pits or the kernels therefrom TO
give the true flavor. Whichever way
you choose the procedure Is the same;
Put the cherries and the sugar In the
preserving kettle and let II stand two
! hours, then cook over slow IRE u,i
| the fruit is tender, fill the Jars and seal:
| IL the sugar does not make the required
syrup after standing on the fruit, then
a little water may be added .
A new England recipe follows the olo
| pound to pound rule. and requires
| that the cherries be pitted. For each
| pound of fruit add an equal amount OF
| sugar Let the sugar stand on the
fruit for two hours and then orins

This gentleman endeayored to show
that much of the sickness in the
world is caused by the vivid iraagi-
nations of the sick persons, and that
such films as those that have been
prepared showing the fight against
the white plague tended to stimulate
the imagination and weaker the con-
dition of a person who would not
otherwise be weak-thus making
him susceptible to infection. It was
brought out by the visitor to The eX-
hibitor that people live norman
healthy lives in daily contact with
victims of tuberculosis in their
homes as well as at their WORK
Therefore, it was represented, any
thing that would awaken doubt or
distrust in the public mind was bad
for it.
The exhibitor had never thought
of these things before, and there
seemed to be a whole lot of truth in
what his visitor told him. Later he
received calls from two other people,
who made similar statements and
produced similar facts and hgures.
The exhibitor was interested beyond
measure. He investigated his visitors
carefully, and found that all Of them
were milk dealers, who were en-
gagged In fighting the health DEPART
ment regulations against impure
milk and milk from tubercular COWS.
and that their real object in seeking

milk. The films proved this beyond
question.
There has been quite a lot of criti-
cism of this kind, and the very exis-
tence of ii is an argument for the
passage of the Federal censorship
bill. In communities where busi-
ness and politics train together there
would be no difficulty in persuading
the censors to rule out such films.
There would be little trouble in per-
suading officials with elastic con-
sciences to so frame regulations as
to make ii impossible to display any
thing on the screen that could >in-
terfere with the many forms of busi-
health. In fact, one of the big trade
papers of the film industry has
come out flat-footed with the state
ment that the agitation of the CEN
sorship question in cities and vii
lagos is purely a graft proposition
the politicians have become Jealous
of the prosperity OF the exhibitors.
and want to get a finger in the pie.
The operation of a Federal censor
ship would enable the exhibitors to
fight local censorship with a great
deal stronger argument than is at
present the case. For that reason
il would seem to be very much to
the advantage of the film men to
help get the proposed legislation
through as quickly as possible. As
we have stated before, it might not
eliminate all the local censorships,
but would tend to lessen their num-
