A Politicians Recipe for Remembering

In the February American Magazine
a writer says:
"My acquaintance was large, and /
was not only embarrassed but annoyed

SPEAKER ANSWERED QUERIES
After Delivering Lecture on "Peace and
War" at Barre Opera House.

Under the auspices of Barre council
No. 40l, Knights Of Columbus, a lecture
was delivered last night in the opera
house on the subject Of peace and War
The speaker, David Goldstein of RoX.
bury, Mass, has gained n national repu-
tation as an opponent of Socialism, and
| II was an socalistic attitude that
Mr. Goldstein adopted during his talk of
the evening. The lecturer was intro
duced by ID. j. Sullivan, recording sccre-
tary of the X. of G. order in this city.
MIR. Goldstein divided his discussion of
peace and war into four headings, speak
ing of its relationship to the individual,
the family, industrial life, and govern.
mental relationships.
The speakers chief criticism of the
modern family was the ideas of divorce,
which are becoming so liberal, Accord
ing TO Mr.. Goldstein, the only antidote
for the divorce evil is the universal adop.
ton of the Catholic principle of the sane
tity of the marriage VOWS.
Most of the industrial and govern
mental unrest to-day is due, according
to the speaker. TO wrong ideas in the
minds of individuals. bad will, denying
Gods law and setting up our own in our
domestic and commercial relations" are
the fundamental causes of the troubles
between labor and capital, employee and
employer, which are disturbing the peace
of the world to-day.
He explained the seeming inconsistency
of the Catholic church in regard to its !
attitude on the war by saying that while |
the laws of the church forbid the killing !
Of one man by another, the church so
interprets those laws as to allow killing |
in self-defense and also allow one nation
to defend itself and its property against |
another nation. In regard to the ques
tion of the justice of the present war in
Europe the speaker said that the church
was silent, regarding that as question
to be answered by the nations them
selves, saying: God will punish those
nations that wage unjust war, for the
state is morally bound to obey the law
If Cod
at is the irony of fate that though

BURLINGTON HIGH WON.
Defeated Stowe High School, AZ to Fl, at
Burlington.

Burlington, Feb. 5.--Stowe high school
got the small end of AZ to Fl score in
fairly fast basketball game played on
the Y. M. c. A. floor last evening. The
game was somewhat married by rather
large number of fouls. Bregstein Melted
10 for Burlington high school and Heath
Gagged three for Stowe.
The game started with rush, Mid
get" Blodgett putting away the first bas-
ket for Burlington in the first minute,
and Houston followed directly for Stowe.
Heath then Gagged long shot with one
hand and the points collected quickly I'M
til the game was interrupted by an in
jury to Heath, Stoves star forward,
which occurred frequently all through
the game. AT the end of the first half,
the score stood II to IL for Burlington
high school.
The second half started with basket
by Blodgett in the first few seconds of
play. Heath followed up with cue for
Stowe in a second or two. Tbs half
was walkover for Burlington, and
Stoves baskets We're few and far be-
tween. Bregstein and H. Rupert fol-
lowed each other at close intervals with
baskets and fouls. Katz was substituted
for Smith at left guard near the end of
the half and did well. The summary:

PUZZLED
Hard, Sometimes, to Raise Children.

Childrens taste Is ofttimes more
food to at the body. than that OF adults.
Nature works more accurately through
the children.
A Brooklyn lady says: Our little boy
had long been troubled with weak
digestion. We could never persuade
him to take more than one taste OF
any kind OF cereal food. He was
weak little chap and we were puzzled
to know what TO feed him on.
"One lucky day we tried Grape.Nuts.
Well. you never saw child eat with
such relish, and II did me good to
see him. From that day on II seemed
as though we could almost see him
grow. He would eat Grape-Nuts for
breakfast and supper, and | think he
would have liked the food for dinner.
The difference in his appearance
is something wonderful.
My husband had never fancied
cereal foods OF any kind. but he be-
came very fond of Grape-Nuts and has
been much improved in health since
using il.
We are now healthy family and
naturally believe in Grape-Nuts.
"A friend has two children who were
formerly afflicted with ricketts,. ] was
satisfied that the disease was caused
by lack OF proper nourishment The
children showed IL. So | urged her
TO use Grape Nuts as an experiment
and the result was almost magical.
They continued the food and to-
day both children are as we'll and
strong as any children in this city.
and, OF course, my friend is a firm be-
lever in Grape-Nuts. for she has the
evidence before her eyes every day"
