Where Mothers Fail.

There is an old Jewish proverb which
reads: "Since God could not be every
where, he created mothers" Upon the
mother, in both the human and animal
species, deyolyes the care OF the off,
spring.
How are American mothers living up
to this divine law of nature? A brief
survey of the conduct of our boys and
girls is sufficient answer The Ameri-
can home seems to have abandoned its
interest in the proper nurture OF its chill
dren Through indifference and negli-
gence, our American youths are being
sent outside the home for training. The
burden has fallen upon the church and
the public school is graphing with the
problem. Leaving out the children OF
foreign parentage, who, in many in
stances are fed, washed and clothed by
the public school, let us limit the in
vestigation to our native-born American
children. What is home and mother
doing for themf Practically nothing,
beyond attending to their physical we'll
being, and even this is open to ques-

Abolition of Poverty.

We recognize that society now has
potentially at its disposal, in our
American communities at any rate, re-
sources sufficient to enable decent
standard of living to be maintained in
every class.
If this seems to involve various kinds
of social action such as shortening
hours of labor, fixing a minimum wage,
preventing the exploitation of women
workers and child workers, extending
womsn's work in directions which are
not injurious and restricting children's
work in directions which are, taking the
mentally defective under more complete
social protection, organizing employment
exchanges for the better distribution
of labor, shifting the geographical loca-
ton of industries, aiding the immigrant
to find the place where there is legit-
innate demand for his labor, providing
for social insurance against dependence
from death, protracted illness, and even
unemployment, and above all modifying
our elementary educational systems in
such way as TO increase substantially
the efficiency, the earning capacity, of
those who yearly enter industry, com
merce or agriculture-then We are ready
to consider any and all such measures,
if for no other reason because they are
necessary steps. although by no means
the only steps, in the abolition of power

THE VERA CRUZ DEVELOPMENT.

An involuntary shudder passed over
all when the news came that American
blood had been shed in the course of
selling the customs house at the Mex
lean port of Vera Cruz, and for mo-
ment there was perhaps revuIsion of
feeling against movement which prom
Used to involve the country in a sacrifice
of human life together with the expend-
ture of vast sum of money The
thought of blood being spilled had a
chilling effect; it brought the people of
speak; it brought them to the first real
ization of what the movement in Mexico
might mean for their country, as well as
for the country that was being invaded.
IT had been so long since the soldiers
and sailors of the United States had
been engaged in actual pursuit of war
that the developments at Vera Cruz on
Tuesday brought a new aspect to the
situation; and many there were, no
doubt, who suddenly shifted from their
active support of the warlike movement.
Yet when the first wave of revision
against the bloodshed had passed. there
remained the deeper determination that
the situation demanded action and that
the president of the United States now
that the country had been committed to
such policy, must be supported AT
the same time there was a fervant hope
that further bloodshed would not be
necessary and that the apologies for
repeated indignities heaped on the United
States would be Forthcoming from the
man who presumes to be the head of the
de facto government in Mexico. The
sight of blood being spilled will have no
effect on Huerta; he lives in a revel of
blood, as it were. The only thing that
would cause him to meet the demands

CALLED sTENoGRApHER DEAR
One Complaint of Wife Against Attor'
ney Frank c. Archibald.

Burlington April 22.--The divorce
case of Stella Charles Archibald VS..
Frank G.. Archibald, of Manchester, was
heard in Chttenden county court yester.
day. The petitioner lives in this city at
So Front street, where on October 80,
1912, she married the defendant, prom
inent attorney and former state senator
from Bennington county. The testi-
mony was that for the first month of
their married life her husband was very
good to her.
According to the testimony, trouble
came when Mrs. Archibald attempted to
have the thirteen years old step-daugh-
ter stay in nights. The testimony was
that the child was habitually out on the
street at night. The testimony further
was that Mr.. Archibald took the part
of the girl and upon this provocation
heaped abuse upon his wife and neg
lected her. Further allegations were as
follows. He tore up the white necktie
he wore at the wedding and threw it
under the bureau. He erased the "Mr."
from the visiting cards. He went to
her room and took away her diamond
ring. He demanded the key to her trunk
in order to get from it photographs OF
himself which his wife kept there, and
when she refused to deliver them he got
an axe and broke the lock. When his
wife came to his office he told her that
if she did not get out he would throw
her down stairs.
The testimony was that during this
time he was taking his stenogra pher out
driving and to hotels to dinner. He
talked to the stenographer over the
phone addressing her as dear"
DR.. JENNIE testified to the effect of the
ordeal of her married life upon Mrs
Archibald, and told how it had impaired
her health He said that she had lost
fifteen pounds. He testified that he had
advised her that she could not continue
to stand the strain. In July, 1913, Mr.
Archibald having left home and gone to
board at the hotel, she returned to the
home of her mother in Burlington.

of the United States is fear of being
crushed. The demonstration against
him at the outset should be calculated
to stir the one feeling that will bring
the desired result about. 1t was GER
tainly with that idea in view that the
government at Washington sanctioned
such hostile move as that contained
in the order to seize the customs house
at Vera Cruz. More than that we hope
will not be necessary. But whatever
the result, the pacific policy in relation
to Mexico had simply outworn itself.

The Barre Board OF Trade seems to
have the vitality that is needed for an
other successful year of effort in behalf
OF the best interests of Barre. The an
nual meeting last evening was largely
attended and it revealed that the mem
bers are keen to the suggestions to be
advanced for the development of the
community. There is great deal for
an organization of this nature to do, and
all the members of the Board of Trade
should lend their efforts in support OF
their officers.

III. S. FORCES BEGIN
GENERAL ADVANCE
TO CAPTURE CITY
Continued from first page.


American occupation passively. They
obtained guns and stationed themselves
at points of vantage and did much to
prolong the action.
Lieutenant Colonel Wendell c. Neville
commanded the marines from the Prairie
and Majors Reid and Berkeley and Cap
tains Hughes, Hill and Dyer along the
line. Every precaution is being taken
to prevent a Mexican attack and the
lines have been reinforced by detach-
ment which was originally in position
beyond the terminal works.
Mexicans Tried Flank Movement.
Towards the middle of yesterday aft
ernoon large body OF Mexicans eyac-
uated their position and are now some
where in the sand hills back in the in
terror, where it is reported from Mex
lean sources they are expecting to be
Joined by reinforcements sent down from
the capital.
This withdrawal, however, was not en-
tirely premeditated. Those watching OIL
the ships observed through their glasses
a large force of Mexicans moving over
the hills into the western outskirts OF
the city, apparently with the intention
of thanking a battalion of marines in the
railway yards and along Montesinos
street, which runs east and west not far
from the American consulate.
Instantly the fve-nch guns of the
Prairie let go, breaking the Mexican for
nation and causing a hasty retreat.
This ended the fianking movement.
Only few minutes before the three
inch guns of the Prairie were used eff
fectiveiy near the shore. A small de-
tachment of Mexicans had gained posi-
tions near the customs house and their
concealed marksmen were causing some
trouble. A few shots from the Prairie's
guns served to silence that position.
From time to time the same guns played
their shells along the line of the shore,
keeping that territory comparatively
free of sharpshooters.
In the action about the customs house,
two of the bluejaekets in launch which
carried a rapid-fire were wounded.
There was no cannon firing from the
Mexican side and it is supposed their
artillery pieces were taken from the city
early in the day.
Bravery was shown everywhere among
the Americans. The young bluejackets

behaved as well under FIRE as the ma
rines, who all along the line comported
themselves like veterans.
In the earlier part Of the engagement
small detachments of the Americans who
were guarding the approaches to the
central part OF the cir, stood without
flinching while bullets from the rifles of
the Mexicans sang about their ears.
