Carroll S. Page, Hyde Park, VT.

The suggestion of Harold l.. Bailey, as
sistant in charge of insect suppression of
the state department of agriculture, that
steps to kill the tent caterpillar pest
should be taken at once, is referred to the
general public of Vermont, with the
earnest plea that the advice be taken up
with. Mr.. Bailey assers that the eggs,
in the shape of ring-like masses, are TO
be found on apple and wild-cherry trees
at the present time and that the destruc-
ton of each one of these masses means
the wiping out of 200 caterpillars. When
the pest is so easily eliminated, there
ought to be no surcease from the labor
until all the egg accumulations within
ones sphere of activity have been de-
stroyed. II we desire to be free from a
real scourge the coming summer, there
is no time to delay operations. The ex-
perience of the past few summers with
this destructor of tree life all through
Vermont and other parts of New England
should prompt us to prosecute this work
most vigorously.-Barre Times.

sistance, the work Christ began.
OF beloved friends gone into the
unseen world. still near us, still low
ing and needing US, but rejoicing in
the richer, fuller life of the realm into
which they have entered.
OF homes and hearts this last win
ter bereft of their dearest ones.
OF those lowering between life and
death. and those who watch anxious
ly by their bedsides.
OF all who will spend Easter Sun
day in prisons and hospitals, and the
great army OF those shut away. by
age and inflrmity, from the worlds

OF victims of recent disasters on
land and sea, and of all in any way

WHEN FEELING TIRED
Hoods SarsapariIIa Builds Up the
Whole System-Makes Pure Blood.

That tired feeling that comes to
you in the spring, year after year,
is sign that your blood lacks vi
tally, just as pimples, boils and
other eruptions are signs that it is
impure; and it is also a sign that
your system is in low or rundown
condition inviting disease. 1t is a
warning, which it is wise to heed.
d. Ask your druggist for Hoods
Sarsaparilla. This old standard
tried and true blood medicine re-
lieves that tired feeling. 1t cleanses
the blood, gives new life, new cour-
age, strength and cheerfulness. 1t
makes the rich, red blood that will
make you feel, look, eat and sleep
better.
Be sure to get Hoods, because it
is the best. There is no other COM
bination Of roots, banks and herbs
like it--no real substitute for it,
no "just-as-good" medicine.

them the worship of the gods, giving
his own body to feed his people, and
dying that they might live. After the
days of mourning came the ceremony
of the finding Of the body of Osiris
and the resurrection of the god, the
signal for the beginning of the spring
festival of joy throughout the ancient
land of the Nile. The resurrection of
Osiris as symbolized in the sprouting
grain was for the Egyptians an augury
of mans immortality.
1t is from the rich mythology of
our Teutonic ancestors that we derive
the very name of Easter ITSELF for the
spring festival of Eostre, the goddess
of spring, was a period of rejoicing
that made the dark forests of northern
Europe ring with gladness. With the
conversion of the Germanic races to
Christianity much of the old ritual of
the Eostre worship was retained in
the Easter ceremonies and customs Of
the peasants, where it is found today.
The Eastern customs of today had
their beginnings so far back in the
history of the world that it is impos-
sible to trace their origins. The egg
and the rabbit are two spring symbols
of reviving nature that are universal
and appear to be as popular today as
thousands Of years ago in ancient In
dia. One of the legends is that the god
Buddha finding the people starving,
transformed himself into hare that
the people might be fed. All of the
egg legends, of which there are hun
dTed variants, express the idea OF re-
generation that comes with the begin
ming of spring.
Our own Indians had many spring
customs and rituals similar in many
respects to those Of the ancients of
Asia Minor and Egypt. The old Peru
VANS and the Aztecs had elaborate
spring festivals preceded by fasting,
penitence and sacrifice followed by
day or days of JOY, and it is significant
that in many parts of Europe today

Summary of War
NeIUS of Yesterd1U

The note sent by the United States
to Germany and the crisis in Italy,
where the country Is awaiting the de-
cision Of the government as to wheth-
er Italy shall participate in the war,
are the dominant features of the lat
est war news.
The American note has been de-
layed in transmission and has not yet
reached Berlin. 1t Is expected that II
will be presented to the German au-
thorities some time Saturday. The
attitude taken by the Washington gov
ernment regarding Germany's subma-
rine warfare has met with almost uni
versal commentator in the press of
the United States and Great Britain.
AS regards the Italian situation,
King Victor Emmanuel has declined
to accept the resignation of Premier
Salandra and his cabinet. 1t Is stated
that Salandra and Foreign Minister
Sonnino will remain in power. This
has created an excellent impression
among that portion of the people who
favor Italy entering the war. Riot
Gus demonstrations in Rome resulted
in the entire garrison being called out
to maintain order A number of
German shops were attacked by mohs,
a crowd Of demonstrators was forcibly
prevented from entering the chamber
of deputies and professions headed
for the kings palace to express their
loyalty and their sentiments in favor
of Italy entering the war were
stopped by troops.
Desperate fighting is going on in
both the eastern and western theaters
Of the war. The French report con-
siderable gains for the allies along the
western line at various points. while
the Austro-Germans are said by Ber-
lin and Vienna to be continuing their

Extra Precautions Taken.
The entire garrison has been
brought out to protect the most
threatened points in the city, such as
the streets where the Austrian and
German embassies and consulates are
situated, and the villa Malta, the
home of former Premier Gioltti. The
city was divided into four military
zones, and the keeping of authority
was entrusted to the military authori-
ties.
A riotous crowd during the day
invaded the Piazza Monteitorio, in
which the chamber Of deputies Is To-
Gated, and smashed windows and
doors and destroyed everything IT
came across. The rioters were about
to enter the great hall Of sittinss
when troops intervened. A few or the
demonstrators were wounded.
Peace Advocates Flee.
Members of the chamber of depu-
ties who are followers of Signor Gio-
litti made their escape from the
building, some of them leaving their
hats behind. A venerable Garibaldian
veteran harraneued the crowd, de-
.claring that Italy either must go to
war or the people would bring about
a revolution.
During the day circular was dis
tributed asking the people to form in
procession and proceed to the villa
Ada, the residence of King Victor
Emmanuel, and demonstrate their
loyalty to the king but also express
their favor of Italy Joining the war.
Wild Demonstration Occurs.
These circulars caused the form
ing of professions of thousands OF
people who. with flags and shouting,
enthusiastically marched towards the
villa Ada On the way the demon
strators smashed all windows and de-
stroyed the signs of German shops.
