AMUSEMENT NOTES.
Louise Did Please at Barre Opera
House Last Evening.

If one may steal the expression,
"Louise will please" and re-arrange it
to suit his own thoughts after seeing
her, the answer would be Louise did
please" Her character of Ruth Grant
in "The Cat and the Bird" at the
Barre opera house last night was one of
those mild hammered little ladies, that
carry you back to your childhood days
of long ago Her conception of the
little country lass is as grasping as the
morning glory vine playing tag with the
lightning rod, she was girlish, innocent,
and pretty, and her strong emotional
scenes were acted in the same degree of
earnestness and sincerely as if it were
real, and not merely acting to amuse
the public. Her lighter scenes were
played with keen sense OF humor.
The Edward Doyle company will be
here for the balance of the week and
matinees will be played every after

theatre rented. They will resume their
engagement again on Friday matinee,
when a special performance for ladies
only will be presented. Wanda, the mys-
terry girl, is coming in for great deal
of comment.

It must be a particularly difficult task
to keep the inmates of the Vermont
state industrial school rounded up now
that the institution is deprived OF its
main building by reason of the disas-
trous fire of ten days ago, and, therefore,
it is not surprising that some of the boys
should take advantage of the relaxed
oversight in private houses in Vergennes
and wander away, eventually to return
to their former homes. Supt. Barss and
his assistants are placed in a very per-
picking situation, and the state should
lose no time in making it possible to re.
construct the building, once the oppor-
tunity comes. Meanwhile county au-
thorities will. of course, render the task
as light as possible by keeping hayward
children in their own counties, either in
reasonable restraint or under probation,
until the children can be committed to
an industrial school with all the equip
ment of the former institution and prob
ably with far better equipment.

4 LIVELY VERMONT VILLAGE.

| The town clerks census of Bethel vii
lage for the present year, showing an
! increase of nearly 400 persons over the
| u. s. census Of 1910, is very eneourag-
ing inasmuch as so many villages and
towns of Vermont are most likely los
ing or standing still. 1t is probable that
| Bethel is at the present time the fast
est growing community in the state, be-
cause the population has increased APP
proximately 40 per cent since the fed
eral census was taken. This increase is
attributable largely to the development
of the granite industry in that commu-
nifty, even as a similar industry is to be
given credit for marked growth of sew
eral other places in Vermont. The gran
tie business has been big help to the
little Windsor county village and it is
bound to make it more than ever one of
the prosperous, progressive centers of
the state, to which more and more peo-
pie will be attracted.
There is one feature about this kind
of growth, too, which is sometimes over
looked. The increased population of
towns and cities having granite indus
tries in their midst is not recruited to
any appreciable extent from other COM
munities in Vermont, but it draws from
other states and even other nations,
since skilled workers in this line of in
dustry come largely from far away
stone.working eenters, the percentage of
resident population going into the bust
ness and learning the trade being neg
ligible. Therefore, the smaller commu-
mites are not drained to furnish work
ingmen for the granite plants and the
net gain to the state in population is
almost in proportion to the gross in
crease of the granite towns, excepting
of course, those who may be attracted
to the growing centers of population as
offering better advantages for profit than
the country communities can furnish.
Bethel is one of those Vermont towns
and cities to which Vermont looks to
keep its population from falling back.

CURRENT COMMENT
Restriction, Surely.

Discovery has been made by the Bos-
ton Post that the purpose of the liter
acy test provided by the Burnett immi-
grafton bill, which the Democratic House
has just passed, is to keep out immi-
grants. Of the advocates of this bill
The Post says: "They want to keep out
the incoming new citizens and the lit
eracy test seems to furnish the Snug,
self sufficient excuse for doing it," If
any congressman, Democrat or Repubi-
can, voted for the Burnett bill with the
idea that it was other than an attempt
to cut down the annual influx of immi-
grants, he has shown conspicuous inabil
ity to know what he was about. There
is no disagreement over the need of shut
ting out criminals and the mentally and
physically unfit. The American Fedora
tion of Labor has gone on record in fa-
vor of immigration restriction so that
the workingmen in this country may not
be thrown into competition with the low
paid laborers of southern Europe. The
literacy test is nothing more than a
means to this end. Unless immigration
restriction may be defended as an eco
