The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1915-03-08

Fitchburg baseball fans are a trihe
slow about becoming enthusiastic over
the prospect of being represented in
the New England league this season,
and their past experiences seem to give
them reason to be. In 1899, when the
league first attempted to get foot
hold in Fitchburg, the team was
transferred to another city before half
dozen home games had been played
and no good reason for the change was
ever Forthcoming. Last year the fans
who were Loyalty supporting a hope
less tail-end outfit awoke one morning
to find that the aggregation had been
taken to Manchester, leaving nothing
but a lot of worthless season tickets
as souvenirs. In view of these .ex-
perienees Fitchburg cannot be blamed
for wanting to make sure that its
team ism t going to be made plaything
of few nonresident magnates before
getting all "het up" over the organ
lied baseball idea.

sportsmen throughout the state are
disposed to look with favor on the
proposition for combined fishing and
hunting license with fee of ST. There
is no reason why fishermen as we'll as
hunters should not contribute toward
the conservation of the state S supply
of fish and game. The proposed Ii
cense fee would not be required OF
boys under 16 or women, and this OF
course is as it should be.

Boom for Vermont Marble.
est. Albans Messenger

Vermont marble received a handsome
trade boost in Montreal this week. The
Canadian city has planned to build a
new civic library and the architect
strongly advises the use of marble from
Vermont in preference to the Canadian
article, on two scores, that the Vermont
stone would make a much more beauti-
full building because of its whiteness,
and that it could be laid down in Mont
real cheaper than the native product
could Sometimes NermonterS fail to
realize what a famous product their
marble is until some such thing occurs
to jog their memory.

{ Rutland News.)

Rev. Clifford H. Smith, superintend-
ent of the Vermont Anti-Saloon league,
makes argument of the fact that the
representatives from this city and
Barre voted in favor of the Perry ref
cfendum bill. While the representa-
tives so voted and. of course, did so
conscientiously it may truthfully be
said that they represented their own
convictions rather than the opinion of
tlfeir constituents. 1t may safely be
assumed that the majority Of people in
both this city and Barre are in favor
of the local option principle.

EION COLLEGE.

Zion College, n. c.. Dec. 25.-Mr.
'oseph Mentally, newspaper corre-
spondent residing in Mexico for the
p"s, zen years. and brother of Mr.. j.
II. McNaily, of this place. was an in
tert sting visitor here last week. Mr..
M Naliy has made a close study OF
the Mexican question, and said that
there were Two matters which would
nave to be readjusted before perma-
nent peace could come to that stricken
land.
The first remedy would be the
oh'nination Of the absentee Spanish
landlord. Mr.. McNally said that the
native Mexicans had never recognized
the ownership of the Spaniards OF
their land. They have always paid
rent to the landlord. but regarded It
as government tax and considered the
ownership to inhere in themselves
Ihis has always been the cause of
frif ton. and always will be until the
Mexican government can in some way
eliminate this Spaniard over-lordship.
He said 1t was just as foolish an ar
rangement in Mexico as the lord pro-
prietofs' grant had been in North
Carolina in Colonial days. and would
continue to cause trouble until as in
North Carolina, freedom and liberty
should came to the people
The second remedy. according to
Mr.. McNaily. is to be found in the
notification by law of the require.
ment that the tenant must always sell
his crop to his landlord. This, how
ev,r. Mr.. McNally thought would be
settled If Spanish absenteeisrn should
first be abolished. He thinks that no
solution of the Mexican problem can
be successful if II does not take cog
nizance of these two fruitful sources
Of dissatisfaction, sedition and revo-
lution.

condensed food. Professor jana has
found
That condensed food is sufIicient
to satisfy hunger for each meal, but
does not seem to contain enough nour-
ishment to sustain the subject from
one meal to another
That the student experienced an
all gone sensation in the morning,
became hungry before his accustomed
meal time and had less endurance dur
ing the day. He had also lost weight.
That during drill hour he reported
himself as feeling weak and unfit to
skirmish
THAT the subject was not able to
do his physical work without suffer-
ing from fatigue not ordinarily noticed,
and also complained OF soreness Of
muscles after exercising.
That tablets are palatable. but the
lack Of variety and bulk is soon
noticed. The different methods Of
cooking do not remedy this defect
THAT the subject experienced n
constant chilly feeling, which, taken
in connection with the 'all-gone' sensa-
ton in the morning. weakness and
intense hunger before meals showed
