The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1915-10-09

The Dartmouth college alumni have
made an admirable selection in electing
Edward X. Hall of Boston a life
member trustee. Mr.Hall is first vice
president of the New England Tele,
phone & Telegraph company and holds
the same position in the Boston Cham
Der of Commerce. In his college DAYS
he was a member of football, baseball
and track teams, and for years he has
been in full touch with advanced ideas
In athletics and other college matters.
Mr.. Hall graduated from Dartmouth in
1892, at time when he was a resident
Of Brattleboro. \ large part of his
preparatory training was secured in the
public schools of IIinsdale, where his
father, Capt. c. =. Hall, was for some
years principal of the high school, be
fore coming to this town as supervisor
of education for Windham county. Mr..
Hall has been president of the Dart
mouth Athletic association, president of
the alumni association in Boston, a
member of the intercollegiate football
rules committee, and has been active in
many other directions in which the in
tcrests Of his alma mater are concerned.

Newsnaners as Buffers.

Nothing fills the place of buffer
in a trunk like newspapers; they are
so unyieIding that wrinkles and pro-
tuberances cannot make themselves
felt. 1t is useless to try TO arrange
heavy articles at the bottom of the
trunk and light ones on top-the bag
gage handlers know no top and no
bottom. Convenience in handling is
all that concerns them. By keeping
an even. smooth surface for each sue
cessive layer one is doing ones best
to protect the contents.

his art took different turn. There was
deeper spirituality, even a touch of mysti-
(cism. Philosophy took the place of fire and
force. In this great call upon his England
in which he glories Kipling has been a
pleader that every man should do his full
duty for England More lately he has been
in France writing home very fascinating
vet unwarlle letters describing the trench
life there. Now somewhere in France lies
his beloved only son, the lad for whom he
wove many a tale that all the other
boys in the world might read. What the
Kiplings are suffering Is the same sorrow
that has fallen upon millions of homes all
through Europe. Because the world knows
how much his home and children meant to
Rudyard Kipling it comes sharply home
that many another boy Of IS, the victim of
war made by old men has given his
full measure for his country, just as John
| kipiing gave his.

AMERICAN SUBMARINES.

From Montreal to the Dardanelles
represents the longest cruise ever
made by submarine boats, and Ameri-
cans cannot fail to be pleased because
the record was made by four vessels
of American design and construction.
When German submersible slip
ped out of Kiel and made its way past
Gibraltar to the coast Of Turkey it
was considered a phenomenal perform
.anee, an achievement which gave Ger
many first place in this field of naval
operations.
This later and far greater cruise by
boats of American origin provides com
forting assurance that if the time ever
comes when congress is ready to order
them, the brains and enterprise of this
country are sufficient to create a fleet
of undersea fighters second to none in
existence
Whatever superiority any power in
| Europe can boast of in the matter OF
military preparedness is the result OF
specialization in the business of max
ing war. No one seriously prctends
that what one nation may do several
others cannot equal, or even excel, if
they put themselves to it. \ year age
the United States had little standing as
a producer of modern submarines. To
! day its vessels lead all others.

The Direct Primary.

Look the ground over and see who
the most violent opponents of the di-
rect primary are. Corporation LAWYERS.
deIe9ate hXers, traders in votes, poll
tlclans who work for hire, newspapers
owned or controlled by rich men.
schemers who have made money or ex-
peet to make money through some sort
OF manipulation, and those who do not
THINK the people should manage their
own affairs, but a few selected persons
Selected by themselves) should gov
ern the country and take the principal
profits OF business-all these are
strongly opposed to the direct primary.
In addition to these, not a few good
citizens, who are ultra conservative and
| are doubtful about changing over old
| things that have served pretty we'll. are
| likewise opposed. The voters are to
have the chance to decide for them
selves next March whether or not they
want direct primary. All the selfish
! interests of the state, political and bust
ness, are already at work against the
primary. Those In favor of the direct
primary have no organization. viii
spend no money and make no canvas.
The direct primary is in the interest
of the rank and file of the voters. 1t
| puts the nomination of candidates in
to their hands and takes it away from
the manipulators, the traders, the
bribers and the fxers who have some
personal object in view. The primary
law on which the Vermont voters are
to pass carries with it corrupt prac-
tees section which viii tend to make
elections cleaner and this is one reason
why those politicians who work for hire
are opposed to it. 1t will be more
economical than the caucus and con
ventiOn system now in use in Vermont.
The crooked, the reactionary, the poll
tically selfish and the timid will vote
against the primary, but we do not be
Eeve there are enough of these classes
to defeat it. The question is whether
they can get the rank and file of the
voters to 90 with them. Every voter
who thinks the people have a right to
name their own candidates and have
some say in their own affairs, will vote
for the direct primary because that is
what the direct primary does.

grown into a rank abuse at the state
fair. If this is the way White River

There is an aftermath about the
state fair that does not leave good

are mad because the publicity agent

public are mad because of the eXorhi-

grounds. The fair management bct-

Senator Hollis of New Hampshire
does not present a pretty spectacle in
running away to a foreign country on

People all over the world, who have
read the later works of Rudyard Kipling
and seen how the heart of father has
been shown in them, will read with regret
that among the missing, somewhere in
France" after the big drive of last week,
is his only son, John Kipling. The Con
nectieut valley has always felt an added
personal interest in Kipling since he mar

Soon after Brattleboro installed mo-

times over-Barre Times.

because of the purchase of a motor

1t is the aim of the management to
secure efficient service in the delivery
of the paper each night, and it solicts
the cooperation of subscribers to that
end. Prompt reports should be given of
each failure to receive the paper on the
morning following the omission, in per-
son, by telephone or postal card, thus
enabling the cause of the error to be
promptly and accurately discovered and
the proper remedy Immediately applied.
1t is only by this method that the pub
Usher can secure the desired service.

State Fair Weaknesses.

A Rutland man who 'sfollows the
fairs pretty closely aud is q somewhat
astute observer Of conditions, has taken
pains to tell the News that he thorough
~ approves of the criticism of the state
fair weaknesses. referred TO the other
day in this column. He calls attention
also to the fact that on the state fair
grounds at White River Junction there
is absolutely no provision for free
drinking water. All drinking water
must be paid for, whereas at the Rut-
land fair there are ten places on the
grounds where drinking water is OBJ
tainable and at three Of these the wa
ter is iced. The same observer calls
attention to the fact that at the state
fair, which is subsidized $4,000 a year
by the state. all hay and straw are
charged for at exorhitant rates, while
at the Rutland fair. which receives
only 5000 from the state treasury. all
livestock and horse exhibitors receive
these necessaries absolutely free. 1t is
evident that the state fair management
has mission to perform.
