INTEREST IN VERMONT STATE
FAIR.

Interest in the Vermont State Fair
September Ia, Is, 16, II is being shown
throughout the State. With the indi-
cations that the coming fair will excel
all previous exhibitions a manifest de-
sire to visit the fair is asserting itself
among the organizations of the State
Especially true is this of the many
boards of trade. These organizations
are planning automobile trips to the
fair, taking in the cars members of the
organizations as well as members of
civic bodies.
The idea of boards of trade and SINH.
lar organizations visiting the State fair
was first advanced at the annual meet
ing of the Greater Vermont association
held last spring in Brattleboro. AT
this meeting resolutions were passed
endorsing the movement, and since
then Secretary Taylor has been in COM
munication with the various bodies
throughout the State. Montpelier, with
its customary loyalty to State events,
has planned for 100 automobiles to make
the trip.
The State fair commission desires il
known that it will welcome to the State
fair all organizations and hopes that
every community in the State will be
given large representation.
Commissioner Wilbur of Bennington
county is organizing an automobile tril
to include the whole county. This will
take in all the organizations of tn,
county and it is expected to be the
largest organized trip of automobile
that has ever taken place in the State.

DEATH OF CENTENARIAN.

A long and busy life ended Friday
night with the death of Patrick Dolan.
at the home of Mrs. Guile in Williams
town. Mr. Dolan's exact age is not
known, but is known to have been be-
tween 50 and 100 years, and some are
sure he had reached the age of 1Ol
years. Up to four years ago, this man
whom age touched so lightly, worked
on the Jones Brothers quarries, where
he had been employed for 28 years. In
1911, when the infirmities of age began
to creep upon him, he went to the home
of Mrs. Guile, where he had been in
failing health ever since, old age being
the cause of his death.

HAT NOT IN THE RING.
Rutland Herald.

The Randolph Herald and News adds
to the piquancy of the senatorial situa-
ton by tentatively hurting the scholastic
lid of DR.. John M. Thomas into the
senatorial arena. Being president of
an excellent college, editor ofs news
paper, manager of hotel, drug store
and business block, trustee of prime
val forest and few other inconsider-
able trifies ought not to interfere with
the furtherance of such a laudable
enterprise as running for a senator.
We note, however, that the Doctor
may have string on the beaver, firmly
clenched within his good right hand.

AUTOMOBILES AFFECT RAIL
ROADS.
Vermont Phoenix.

Perhaps you have noticed this sum-
mer that the railroad trains are rarely
crowded. The railroad officials say that
the trouble comes from the automo-
biles, which are cutting a big swath
in the receipts of the regular lines of
travel. The New York Central and
some other railroads are to take off
their summer trains directly after La
Dor day, instead of maintaining them
until early in October, as has been the
custom. One railroad man, . in speak
ing of the changed condition, said that
at any big summer hotel you would see
25 or more touring cars placed in the
garage for single night. This meant
that there were at least 100 people in
the hotel who did not pay railroad fare.
When you stop to think that this was
but single instance and that the same
condition was being repeated at hotels
all over New York and the New Eng
land states some idea is obtained of the
loss of revenue which the railroads are
sustaining.

INFANTILE PARALYSIS IN ST.
JOHNSBURY.

The first death from infantie paral-
ysis in St. Johnsbury this year occurred
Saturday night. The victim was six
year-old John Ide, eldest son of Mr..
and Mrs. W. A. Ide and grandson of
Mr.. and Mrs. Elmore T. lde. This is
the seventh case in Vermont this year.
The child had been slightly ill since
Thursday, but the nature of the dis
ease was not suspected until Saturday
morning when his body was paralyzed
to his toes. The little boy broke both
legs last winter in a sliding accident
and had been able to walk but a short
time.

FIRE PREVENTION DAY.
St. Adams Messenger.


October 9 is to be observed as a
nationwide fire prevention day" If
there is one phase of our every day
life that is disgraceful it is our great
fire loss, which reaches shameful
total. Carelessness and neglect,
coupled with Indifferent building and
even worse inspection, are the cause
and would be quickly removed if the
country were thoroughly awakened to
the economic foolishness of it all. Cap
ital that goes up in smoke is capital
forever lost. Fire insurance does not
restore this capital, although the major
ity seem to think it does. They are
very much mistaken. The reservoir of
capital is depleted just as much when
ever fire loss is paid.

ADVICE OF CARDINAL GIBBONS

The people of the United States
should pause and consider the wise
words of the venerable Cardinal Glib

church in America. While his words
are moderate and gentle, as becomes an
old man whose long years and wide
experience have taught him that the
doctrine of hate and strife should be
subordinate to the teachings of right
and justice, he warns the people of this
country not to be misled by those whose
self-interest, love of strife or prenatal
