Warlike Preparations

1t is pre- ty clear, even to the casua
observer, that something is about to
happen in Mexico. Just what will even
tuate is probably known only to official
Washington, but that the United States
army and navy are preparing for an
emergency the press dis patches fore.
shadow
Considerable more activity on the part
of the armed forces of the United States
has been shown since Mr.. Lind and Pres
ident Wilson conferred in Pass Christian.
Marines are being hurried to Mexican
waters and the fleet of warships at adj
vantageous points on the coast is being
constantly augmented. The Atlantic re
serve fleet has been ordered to hold itself
in readiness to put to sea, and it is re-
ported that both the army and the navy
are more nearly at full strength than at
any time since the Spanish-A
war The army is close to its limit of
eight thousand and the navy lacks but
abou five hundred of its complement of
fitty-one thousand five hundred. Nearly
fifteen thousand American troops are on
the Mexican border and the remainder
of the small army is scattered all over
the world. Secretary Garrison has asked
Congress for larger appropriation than
usual for the army, and if Intervention
must come, it would be the part of wis
dom to spend some money and really get
ready. The slaughte in Mexico cannot
go on forever, and while it may be that
the President is simply taking precau-
tions, the sentiment grows that this
country will ultimately be compelled in
tue interest of humanity and civilization
to save the Mexicans from themselves.

HIS FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY
Senator Page Completes Fifty
Years in Business

In his own name, in the same place,
without Incorporation. without mo-
ment's financial embarrassment, with.
out partner indeed without change of
any kind, Senator Page completed on Sat-
urday last his ffieth year in the hide
and calfskin business He commenced
serving his apprenticeship under his fa
Their, the late r. S. Page, nine years be-
FORE so that for ffty-nine years, he has
been buying hides and skins at Hyde
Park.
He has lived to see every prominent
dealer in hides, who was in business
when he entered it, either die, fail, incor-
porate, or 60 out of business. He has
lived to see the little village of Hyde
Park come to be known in every large
city in the United States and Canadas,
and in every prominent tanning centre
on the globe.
He has lived to see Hyde Park village
the home of two exceptionally strong
banks, of both of which he is president.
and one of which is said to be--and we
think is-the largest bank in the world
in village of the size of Hyde Park.
Before Senator. Page was elected Gov
ernor, in 1890, he was wont to speak
quite often about retiring from business,
but today, twenty four years later, he is
as active and pushing as ever; and while
the active management OF his hide bust
ness has been largely turned over to his
son, Russell S. Page, and subordin ates.
since his election to the United States
Senate, yet his interest both in hides and
banking seems to be as keen as ever.
Perhaps the most remarkable thing
which can be said of the Senator is that
for more than sixty years he has not, for
a single day, been sufficiently ill to pre-
vent his going oIt OF doors, and today.
at II, he is apparently as full of vigor as
men of so usually are.
We are sure we voice the sentiments of
the entire newspaper fraternity of Yer.
mont when we extend hearty congratu-
lations to Senator Page, for he has been,
for more than a quarter of century,
the most extensive advertiser in the State
and we think no one will question the
statement that to pluck and persistence
must be added printers ink to complete !

Senator owes his p 1enominal success

"SnOW-BOund"

Such days as we have recently had sug-
gest the vast changes that have taken
place in New England since the boyhood
of the poet Whittier of which he wrote so
lovingly
"What matter how the night behaved
What matter how the north wind raved
Blow high, blow low, not all its snow
Gould quench our hearth-fre's ruddy
glow"
The picture that he gives of the amuse-
ments and varied employments of fam
lily thus snowbound remains as one of
the most beautiful mem entoes of the life
in New-England three generations ago.
Today there are a thousand books and
papers where then there was one. The
wireless telegraph carries its messages
through all the legions of the air un-
loosed. With all these extended means
of enlightenment how much better off are
we? few "snow-bound" days are
very good test. The person who with
books and other means of employment
at hand feels lonesome, and poor compa
ny to himself, ought to reflect a little on
the fact that if this be so, he must be
rather poor company to other people at
other times

Paying The Price

The queen of Bulgaria has cabled to
the American Red Cross asking the soci-
ETY. to send aid at once to the destitute
people of that country. General Miles,
who has made a tour of the unhappy
kingdom, supplements this appeal. Ia
all his experience as a soldier, General
Miles declares, he never saw such whole
sale misery and restitution. The Balkan
war exhausted the country. The able
bodied men went to the front and agri-
culture was neglecte l. The nation was
impoverished and poverty stricken, with
out money, without credit and without
social order. The war took heavy toll
of the manhood of the country. Thou.
sands of families are without bread win
ners and a great burden on the kingdom
is the aftermath of battle-the hosts of
crippled, broken men who are incapable
of earning a livelihood.
Bulgaria is starving, Montenegro is
bankrupt and Greece is trying to borrow
money The victory of the Balkan states
over the Turks came pretty high. The
war which was entered on so lightly and
enthusiastically has left wounds which
will take years to heal, and the Balkans
are learning at bitter cost that militarism
is a luxury which only the great and rich
nations can afford.

a Bird With Hands,

In the forests of British Guiana.
says the London Globe, lives the no.
actin. singular bird, whose young
possess free claw at the end of each
wing. which they use almost as the
monkey uses his hands in tree climb
ing. The nest of the hoactZin is in IA
tree overhangng the water, and the
young. unlike most birds, are active
from the first. The outermOst quill
feathers of the wing. which might
hamper the free use of the claws. do
not grow much until the rest of the
wing is strong enough to make climb
ing less necessary. Then they grow
out, and the claws are absorbed. The
adult bird does not need them Should
a young hOactZin fall into the water ii
makes for the shore and SezeS
branch. up which it quickly climbs.
