following comparison between Vermont
and that section of the country: There
is lots of talk and some complaint about
the years in Vermont which are said to
be nine months in winter and the other
three months early spring OF late autumn,
but don't make any mistake. You do not
have nine months tropical summer and
three months northern Summer. You do
not have that long continued oppressive
heat that takes all the energy from
man. You can walk through the mead
ows and woodlands of Vermont in the
spring, summer and autumn without get
ting covered with all sorts of nasty, irri-
tating, vexatious insects which bore into
and under your skin before you are aware
Of it and make your life miserable. You
do not have to look out for every step to
examine every bush or tree by or under
which you walk, or every bunch of fruit
you gather to eat, for snakes, tarantulas,
scorpions. You do have nice grassy lawns
and smooth pastures upon which you can
throw yourself to rest or sleep with per-
| feet safety from vermin or beast You
can sleep at night in the summer without
gasping for breath"
| Ii one wants to live as a civilized, intel
| Ggent man should on any scale, great or
small, Mr. Vail asserted, it can be done
in Vermont with as little effort as in any
place in the world Now, how are we
going to reap all these advantages? BY
learning how to do things properly and
then doing them, using care in the doing,
care in every little detail from start to
finish Education as to the aggregate value
of infnitesimal things is the prime neces
sity Education is the first necessity tc
accomplishment, not only education in the
particular vocation through or by which
the livelihood is gained, but that founda
ton, that education in the elementary
studies which is necessary to build upon i
one wants to work intelligently or want.
culture and intellectual enjoyment" Mr.
Vail spoke at some length upon the gen
eral subject of elementary education
making some hard-headed and common
sense statements.

CALLS HALT ON
UNDERSTANDINGS
United States Will Omit No Word or Act to See
That This Demand is Carried Out Purpose of
the American Note is to End Warfare on Mer-
chant Ships of All Nations

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE I'M
perial German government viii not expect
the government of the United States to
omit any word or any act necessary to the
performance of its sacred duty of main
tanning the rights of the United States
and its citizens and of safeguarding their
free exercise and enjoyment"
Z This is the final paragraph of President
Wilson's note to the German government
regarding the I.usitania disaster, which
was made public last night
The note which was cabled by Secretary
Bryan to the American ambassador in
Berlin for delivery to the German For
eign Office today calls ON Germany in
vigorous but courteous language to aban-
don her submarine warfare against mer
chant vessels, and to disavow the acts of
her submarine commanders in cases where
American ships have been attacked or the
lives of American citizens lost or endan-
gered.
The principle is laid down and emphati-
cally maintained that American citizens
engaged on peaceful missions are entitled
/ to take passage on the merchant vessels
4 of any nationality, even on the merchant
vessels of Germany's enemies, and are i'm
mune from any attack on the high seas
which places their lives in jeopardy.
Appeal to Humanity.
4 Throughout the note there IS an evil
dent intention shown by the President to
l appeal to Germanys sense of right, jus
tice, and humanity But the concluding
paragraph informs the German govern
ment in unmstakable language that a
failure to correct or abandon the abuses
of which the United States complains
will cause this government to take its owr
course in order to bring about what it in
sists the German government should dc
! Of its own voition.
With the possible exception Of the clos
ing paragraph perhaps the most striking
feature of the note is the virtual insistenct
that Germany abandon her submarine
warfare on merchant shipping, not only
with reference to the vessels of the United
States and other neutral nations, but alsC
the merchant vessels which fly the flag
| of Germany's enemies.
Abandon Submarine Attacks.
1t is not stretching the purpose of Presi
] dent Wilson's words to say that he call
on Germany to abandon the terms Of he

Opinions Are Divided.
Such opinions as were expressed last
night in unofficial circles indicated that
there was likely to be divided view as
to whether the Presidents message to
the German government meant war or a
continuance of friendly diplomatic rela-
tons between the two nations Germany
has already refused to abandon her sub
marine warfare unless England, for her
part, would consent TO relnquish her
'starving-out" policy directed against
Germany
| In calling on Germany to cease her sub
marine attacks on merchant vessels the
/ United States does not offer any counter

opinion prevailing in Washington las
