LOCAL OPTION LEAGUE
vermontets' Elected officers and Edu.
cationai Campaign Proposed.

F H
a local option league has been or
eanized in Vermont Prominent resi-
dents who believe, the present law to
be the best temperance measure
ever placed upon the statute books
came together a few weeks ago and
decided that an organization with
the purpose in view of retaining the
present law was wise at this time.
TO ascertain the sentiment on this
subject prominent men in all parts
of the State were consulted and the
concensus of opinion was that the
present local option law should re-
main in preference to anything yet
proposed TO take its place With this
information at hand the league was
organized with the following officers:
President, James NJ. Tyler, Brattle-
bolo; County Vice Presidents Adj
Olson, Carlton w. Sprague, Bristol
Bennington, Frank L, Howe, Ben
nington Caledonia, Alexander DIM

The league appeals to all Vermont
ers who believe in local option to
join and to aid the movement to the
fullest extent possible. Member
ship fee is one dollar.
The league plans to conduct an edu
cational campaign to show that I'M
der local option Vermont has a law
that has worked benefacially to the
state and that the temperance cause
has benefited to a greater extent
than under prohibition. Every dol
lar contributed to the cause will be
used to enlighten the people of Yer
mont through the newspapers what
has been accomplished under local
option and what may be expected
with continuance of the law.

War a Boon to Women

Reports from European countries call atten-
ton to the increased enrolment Of women at the
medical colleges of Great Britain and Germany.
The number Of women enrolled in medical courses
in the German universities has increased from
874 to 1150, while the registration in the London
School of Medicine for Women has doubled.
The pressure of necessity will undoubtedly
remove the prejudice against women physicians
which hitherto has kept many from entering that
profession IN Great Britain and Germany. Not
only that, but hundreds Of young men who were
preparing to enter the medical schools have been
called to the colors, the old doctors are being
thinned out by the war, and when peace is de-
clared many women who have been studying
medicine will take their places.
The splendid work done by women in the hos
pitals and with the medical units at the war front
has gained them an envable position. Press and
official dispatches describe in glowing terms the
heroic service of the women who are nursing and
caring for the wounded and dying. This has
given prestige to women studying medicine or
nursing and has been a potent factor in breaking
down the prejudice against their entrance into
the profession

few CHANGES EXPECTED
IN COUNTY APP0INTEES

Very few changes in the list of ap-
pointees made by the county commits
sioners are expected when the new
board of commissioners meets the first
OF the year. The only change In the
personnel of the board is the retire
ment Of Albert Anderson, Progressive
member of the board and the Install
ment of William Seaney, the only
Democratic member Of the board
Among the appointments to be made
is the one of matron of the Home for
the Friendless. Mrs. Aurelia Thomas,
present matron. has been i'll for sew
eral months and unable to attend to
her duties at the Home. During her
absence, the work has been done by
Mrs. Ora Schroeder. who said this
morning that the physicians believe
Mrs. Thomas will be able to return
to her duties by the first of the year.
The effect of the investigation which
was made Of the conditions at the
Home by the special investigating
committee of the county commission
ers. on the appointment to be made,
is not known.
President Anderson is the only
member of the board who has ex-
pressed himself on the charges made
against the matron by the grand jury,
alleging mismanagement of the Home.
He said that he was we'll satisfied with
the work OF the matron and had no
objections to make. He. however. as
the retiring member Of the board, will
have nothing to say concerning the
appointment.

Some More Insular Arrogance

Here's news dispatch from Boston, which
every patriotic American might ponder long and
hard: :. =: ''E 49,
Boston, Mass, Nov. 23.-Shipment of wool,
yarns, tops and wool waste to Russia, France,
Italy and Japan from this country has been au-
thorized by the British Board of Trade. In COM
munication to the Textile Alliance, Inc, of this
city, this was announced tonight.
The goods must be consigned to the respect
i've government and must be sent by way of
Great Britain or it's colonies.
Insular arrogance forbids Americans to ship
wool to all the markets of the world.
1nsular arrogance says you free Americans
may ship to Russia, France, Italy and Japan.
Insular arrogance says you cannot ship to
Germany, Austria, Sweden, Holland, Denmark
and Norway
Why cant free American merchants ship to
these countries? Because insular arrogance,
speaking through the British Admiralty, says
NO.
Even if shipments are made to countries not
blacklsted by Great Britain they must be sent
by way Of England.

in awed wonder, almost doubling her.
