Assembling Genius

The announcement that Thomas A.
Edison has accepted the offer OF Secretary
Daniels of the Navy Department to head
an advisory board of civilian inventors
in the proposed bureau of inventions and
development of war devices is cheerful
news to the country.
Mr.. Daniels plans to utilize the iuven.
tive genius of the country to perfect the
navy as a fighting machine, and as a
patriotic American Mr.. Edison accepts.
One OF the big problems to be considered
by the new bureau will be that of improv-
ing the navy's submarines and aero
planes, arms of service which are adj
nittedly week.
Another important task of the new
bureau will be to pass on the numerous
suggestions and inventions which are re-
ceived almost daily from naval officers
and civilians.
The Establishment of this bureau is an
indication that the head of the navy
realizes the need of the hour There is no
lack of brains in this country to help it in
times of national peril, and this effort to
assemble and use the wealth of brains
of genius of the nation is a sign that
those in control of our national defenses
are at last aroused to the necessity of
doing something besides explaining and
defending themselves from criticism.

Culvert Washed Out

The heavy rains on Saturday did some
damage to roads throughout town. The
place shit" the worse however, is on the
road under the hill, the rains washing
out the railroad culvert and the road just
west of Theodole Bessett's residence
Freight trains were held up several hours
Saturday, but by diligent work of the
section men the track was made safe so
that the evening trains could pass over
The washout made a gap of about thirty
eet wide, taking out the bank to the
river and also several lengths of sewer
tile. At this point is the outlet of the
village sewer. Some time ago Mr.. Besette
turned the course of the brook, which ran
near his house and it is said that this
action has had considerable to do with
the washout as we'll as the destruction
of the sewer outlet.

There seems to be a bit of bubbling in
the teapot, if not a tempest, over the
deanship of Vermont journalism. As far
as our claims are concerned, our only
contention has been that the editor of

newspaper continuously for thirty-iour
years, which he claims is the longest I'M
broken record for the state-Bradford
Opinion.
Please allow us to "toss our hat into
the ring" The editor of this paper
''landed" in Vermont in August, 1878.
From that time until Nov. 1, 1881, he
conducted the Lamoille News. At the
latter date that paper and the Vernon

name ofNews and Citizen the paper has
had a continuous existence with L. H.

why YOU ARE NERVOUS

The nervous system is the alarm system
of the human body.
In perfect health we hardly realize that
we have network of nerves, but when
health is ebbing, when strength is declin-
ing, the same nervous system gives the
alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamfu1
sleep, irritability and unless corrected,
leads straight to breakdown.
To correct nervousness, SCOTS Efnul-
sion is exactly what you should take; its
rich nutriment gets into the blood and
rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while
the whole system responds to its refresh
ing tonic force. 1t is free from alcohol.

End of an Empire

The capture of the German West Afri-
ca by troops of the South African Union
| under Gen. Bothia, takes from the Ger
mans the last oftheir colonial possessions
except in East Africa. This territory
which has been surrendered to Great
Britain will probably be added to the
South African Union. 1t is an empire
larger than Germany, but has few white
inhabitants.
In the ten months of the war the allies
have swept from Germany her entire CO.
lonial empire. With Germany's navy
bottled up by the British fleet, it has
been comparatively easy for her enemies
to grab her island possessions, while the
French and English colonial forces quick
ly sliced adjoining German colonies.
The policy of colonial empire was be-
gun about ageneration ago by Bismark,
and has since been pursued at large cost
by Germany. Ten months of warfare
has been enough to wipe out the Teuton'
