Prouty for senator, and it doomed no

that Howe was the logical nominee for

that administration officials favored

Great Britain and Germany are so
busy striking at each other that they
are not disposed to recognize that
neutrals have any rights But the open
seas are not the property of any ma
tion and neutrals have their rights
which they are justified in asserting.
All of the countries which maintain
neutral positions seem to be in about
the same attitude, and the United
States has plenty of good company in
insisting upon its rights. But, with
Germany losing its head in its fear

Educational Matters.
{ Barton AIonitOr.)

( By attempting to speak of education
al matters in Vermont the Monitor
may be open to criticism in view OF
the fact that the writer is Il member
Of the state board of education How
ever, that may be. the Monitor ven
lures a few thoughts and suggestions
which may not be out of place at this
time.
Unquestionablv the resignation of
Mason :. Stone as superintendent OF
education has cleared the educational
atmosphere in Vermont perceptiblv.
Owing to the educational system in
Vermont until two years ago, any man
occupying the position of superintend-
emit OF education was of necessity
drawn into political situations that
were far from pleasant or beneficial to
the educational interests of the state
Although able, conscientious and indus
triouS, Mr.. Stone because of the svs-
TEN, had become aligned for or against
policies, men and measures which kept
things in a constant turmoil. Many
men of influence and many educators
in the state have become aligned with
one faction or another, and the instant
legislation was attempted all sides
saw things The situation was I'M
pleasant and contributed little to ad-
vance along broad constructive and fix
cd educational lines. SO we repeat Mr.
Stone $ resignation, strong man that he
Is, comes at an opportune time and
clears the situation for concentrated
action. it is hoped. A new man will
come into the field another summer
one who should be free from all en-
Engagements, a man able to command
the respect and attention of all, man
who knows his place and job. Such .
| man by the time another session of the
| Legislature shall have met should have

present to the people his ideas making
| for educational progress in the state
| and if he is the right man for the place
| his leadership will find expression

In the meantime, the special educa

most of the homes, should
proceed to extend to dependent women
the right to vote.
VIII women, in return for their right
to vote, bear their full share of tax
alton? In the very nature of things
they cannot do so.
Mr.. Blanchard continues:
'Those who cry equal rights for
women ought to see that in this
proposed law, they are asking I'M
equal rights for them, and penaliz-
ing men for the accident of birth.
1t Is quite possible that nearly as
few women viii qualify to vote
under this law, if enacted, as have
under the existing school law. If
the tax laws were enforced and
every woman compelled to make
tax inventory and swear to its cor
rectness, a substantial increase in
the grand list might be made, but
where is the board of listers to be
found which will do such an I'M
gallant thing?'
If the advocates of the good -natured
Simonds bill Is 49, really have tn,
courage of their convictions, why don =

ing that the property Of every vote

1t looks odd to see the name of Al
of Samuel Gompers in an appeal to
the house appropriations committee at
Washington to take out of the federal
treasury the 100000 which the SUI
preme court has said the Danbury hat
tiers must pay for their organized boy
colt against a single employer of la
Dor in that city. Mr.. Gompers would
do better to advise his federation of
labor to pay this money, rather than
to hire the most expensive lawyers in
the country to lobby the money out of
the treasury of the United States.

grown man.
Milk, eggs and meat are the foods
that build tissue; cereals, fats and SUI
CARS give energy. Fruits and vege-
tables supply the mineral salts and
materials which make good blood and
bones.
The first foods mentioned are the
most important, most expensive and
most often poorly used. They can
sustain life longer than any of the
others.
Dietitians differ as to the time of
introducing meat into the child's diet,
but the most natural way is to give
the child his energy foods in milk and
combinations of milk and eggs until
he has q good set of teeth to masti-
cate the heartier meat
Milk is the child's natural food. and
even if he shows an aversion for it, it
may be disguised in various forms Of
custards, cocoa and soups.
Eggs should be given in various
forms at least once a day. Scrambled
with cold cooked rice viii be method
which will economic with eggs. vet
! make most palatable and sustaining

Soft cooked eggs should be the rule
/ for children. or when cooked in va
rious ways, be sure that they are not
cooked tough and hard.
The best meats for children are
chicken, beef lamb and bacon once in
a while Children should never be
given meat oftener than once day
and then in small portions.
Cereals are of such variety that one
may have a different kind every day
in the year, nearly. Oatmeal. the sen
sible food, if long and well-cooked,
and served with thin cream or top
milk and sugar, makes a most whole
some breakfast for any child. In all
cooking of cereals for children or for
anyone, in fact, the long cooking IS
nm important point to emphasize.

Dubious Baseball Prospects.
bennington Banner.)

With managers of the National and
American baseball leagues Worrying
over the financial prospects of the com
ing season the outlook for the national
game IN the small cities is far from en-
couraging. There are rumors to the
effect that the Eastern association NAV
fail to start the season and the Twin
State league Is reported to be on the
verge OF a reorganization that Will
throw out some Of the towns that have
been represented in previous years.
There is no denying that the country
has partially recovered from the base
ball mania with which it was appar-
entity afflicted few years ago and
that the people who are interested in
the game from the standpoint of the
amusement and relaxation the sport
affords have apparently dropped back
10 earth with their mental machinery
tuned somewhere near the normal
speed.
