Don't Blame the Canoe

The canoe is blamed for good
many summer tragedies. Yet the
canoe IN itself is harmless. The cause
for canoe drownings is the lack OF
experience and knowledge on the part
of those who use the craft. Despite
the fact that these are the frailest and
most delicate Of all boats, persons
without any experience and unable to
swim will venture out in them, and
sometimes, too often, they come to
grief. None but an expert swimmer
should try to canoe. Up in New
York camp recently every canoe was
burned because it seemed impossible
to restrain novices from going out in
them. But it isn't the canoe itself.
The tragedy is made up Of two factors.
The canoe plus inexperience. But as
human life is worth more than a
canoe, the New York example is not
half bad.-St. Adams Messenger.
Here's a good bit Of truth all right.
But the canoe should never be blamed
for the tragedy. 1t is always case
Of either inexperience or carelessness
or both. Most always both, for the
more inexperienced a man is with q
canoe the less respect he has for the
craft and the more he abuses his priv
ileges.
Watch the guides Of the north coun'
| try. Do they ever think Of standing
up and changing places, as though
they were on an East River ferry
boat? And no fear but what those
guides can swim. As one old Ontario
guide always tells his sport" and it;
true too, "you can do whatever yor
damn please in my canoe as long al
you sit still and mind your own bust.
ness"
Those who blame a canoe wher
there is a drowning tragedy are just
about as sensible as those who bump
their ankles against the rocker in
the dark and then turn around and
euss the chair.--Swanton Courier.

The Final Word of the United States

The Final Word of the United States
Deliberately unfriendly" are the
words which accurately express the
sentiments Of vast majority Of the
people Of the United States. They
were the closing words of the latest
note which Secretary of State Lansing
dispatched to Germany on behalf of
President Wilson. The words refer to
the preparation Of further acts af-
feeting American citizens in violation
Of their rights on the high seas and
in contravention Of the accepted inter-
national laws of warfare. Back Of
them is the sinking of the Lusitania.
Ahead of them lie we know not what.
II all depends upon Germany. In the
parlance of the day, it is up to Ger
many. 1t is easily within the ability
of Germany to maintain relations
with a country which, despite all re-
ports TO the contrary, is endeavoring
to preserve a strict neutrality in the
war as far as governmental act is
concerned. 1t is also easily possible
for Germany TO ALLEVIATE that friendly
relation completely, perhaps even to
bring about open rupture between
Germany and the United States. The
next act will be Germany's; the United
States has said her last word and
spoken it so plainly that there can be
no misunderstanding Of her position
and, at the same time, of her desire to
remain on good international terms
with the kaiser's empire. The time
for deliberate quibbling by Germany
is past, and in saying that one need
not adopt belligerent attitude in the
least. 1t is safe to say that the United
States will not indulge in quibbling,
even as it has not INDUCED thus far in
the negotiations between the two
countries following he Lusitania out
rage. The United States awaits d.
rect, frank reply to the latest presen-
tation Of our case.--Barre Times.
