Gambling and affairs with women had
made heavy drafts on Roberts finances.
Inconsistency was ingrained in his ma

in his love affairs. His latest flame
was Mrs Kelton, the young and pretty

St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1915-04-21
Announcement.

Next weeks issue of The Caledo-
MAN will contain a special feature
We have asked each one of our cor
respondents to write community ed
itorial regarding his own COM
munity and suggested that it be the
advocacy of something their commun-
ity might do for its improvement.
Not every correspondent feels able
to write an editorial but a large
proportion have promised to do the
best they can and have made the
promise after enough serious refec-
ton to give us confidence they will
write something worth while.
This work has been undertaken
for several reasons. The Caledo--
MAN will get into closer touch with
its readers and possibly through the
suggestions that come to nearly
every community be the means of
starting something really beneficial
to the county as a whole. The in
struction to our correspondents for
their weekly letters is to confine
themselves strictly to the news and
not attempt to add any editorial COM
ment to their news items. This time
we are giving them the opportunity
to express their editorial opinions be-
lieving it will give them a better
opinion Of themselves and a more
vital interest in their work if they
can become identified with some
progressive effort in their own COM
munity. Finally The Caledonian is
anxious to lend itself to the encour-
agement of rural improvement and
development and we felt the most
practical suggestions might come
from the people who are in daily
touch with rural conditions.
We do not know yet what the cor
respondents will say but we have ar
ranged for this feature and hope that
you like us will look with renewed
interest for the appearance of next
weeks Caledonian.

That Mail Order House.

Louis S. Brigham writes an inter

of Randolph under the title of mail
Order Trading" He closes his let
ter with this statement:
81 think the reason the people buy
of mail order houses is this: They
can buy what they want and they
can buy cheaper than at the local
stores. When 1 stop to think of the
immense amount of bad bills carried
by our local merchants, | know when
l pay for my purchases l must help
pay for some of those bad bills. The
merchant cannot stand for them all.
The way to do business right here is
on a cash basis to everyone. No
charge accounts at all. That means

United States Must Act

With the great majority of the cit
liens of this country we have ardent
ly hoped the internal dissensions of
Mexico might be settled without the
Intervention of any outside party, es-
pecially the United States. We had
hoped that a man of iron might gain
the ascendency there and crush the
forces Of revolution and destruction
so that human life, business honor
and the rights of citizenship would
be safe. We had hoped that the
great forces of Mexico might be
turned from the sword to industrial
production and prosperity, that a
man with capital might invest his
money there with confidence it would
be protected by the laws of the land,
that the laws Of Mexico might be
changed so the poor and irresponsi-
BILE parties of the past might acquire
land and become transformed into
Industrious and responsible citizens.
We still wish that these things may
be but have become convinced they
cannot be brought about by the Mex
leans themselves. Whether or not
the majority is with us in this con-
viction does not alter its force with
us.
The insecurity of civil life and in
terests, the disrespect of the Amer
lean flag and the absence of any evil
dence of improvement prove the COM
plete failure of "watchful waiting"
and cowardly inactivity of the pres
emit administration. The volleys of
a literary diplomatic bureau can new
er bring the Mexican desperadoes to
terms. The policy of the present ad-
ministration cannot claim the virtue
of economy. Sixteen million dollars
and several American lives were exc
pended in landing the American ma
rines at Vera Cruz but nothing was
accomplished toward the pacificafion
OF Mexico. An unknown sum has
been expended in sending "speci7'
representatives" to Mexico but they
have accomplished less than a gold
brick man could with an intelligent
American citizen. These facts con-
vince us that America is not follow
ing a desirable or hopeful policy and
that a radical change is necessary.
A change is necessary because
present policies are bringing no bene
fit to Mexico and are absolutely de-
structive to every other interest in
vOlved in the welfare of Mexico. It

girls in the graduating class this year
are to be dressed in white batiste,
the dresses to be made alike and for
the most part by the girls them

is evident to everyone. Graduation
from a high school course should not
be an exhibition of the dressmaker's

of the parents unable to meet large
