A colored preacher was trying 20

Island and with the drop of it in his
beak should hop a hop day until he
reached the Pacific Ocean at San

should let the drop fall into the Pa-

should turn round and hop hop a

Rural Church Survey.

Within the year there is to be a
survey of rural church conditions in
Vermont the movement coming as part
of n nationwide campaign. In these
days of Capitalization of effort of eff
ficiency methods it is by no means n
wild suggestion that the results of the
survey will warrant the recommends
ton that struggling churches of diff
ferent denominations in isolated towns
combine forces. This has been done
successfully in several Vermont towns
and the Herald believes that the plan
can be carried still farther to the
end that evangelical work may bring
wider and better results in this state.
The leaders selected for the move
ment in Vermont will be President
John NJ. Thomas of Middlebury col
lego, Rev. w. A. Dawson of Burling-
ton, Henry Bond of Brattleboro and
Charles Tuxbury of Windsor, each
strong in the denomination he repre-
sents. Though each of these men
may be termed UNCONVENTIONAL leaders
they represent II type which stands for
far more liberal Interpretation of re-
ligion than did those who builded the
state. The four men designated by
the Commission on Church and Coun
try Life to direct the rural church sur
vey in Vermont are red blooded men
of the present, citizens of new Yer
mont who appreciate the fact that
there can be achieved greater unity

A Tribute to MIR. DeBoer.
(Walter II. Crockett in Burlington Free
Press.)

walter II. Crockett in Burlington Free
Press.)
Among the greatest losses that can
come to a stare is the loss of a strong,
brave, vigorous leader of men, cut
down in what appears to be the period
of his greatest usefulness. Such a loss
Vermont has suffered in the death of
Joseph a. DeBoer of Montpelier. Born
in another country, beginning his ca
reer amid great hardships and dis.
couragements in another State, he
was able to enter so thoroughly into
the true life and spirit of Vermont
that no descendant of the Green Noun
tain Boys had a clearer understanding
of all the elements that entered into
the formation of this commonwealth or
greater admiration for its founders
than did Mr. DeBoer. He was a trucr
Vermonter than many of those ''to tn
manor born.
1t is seldom that there are united in
one man the qualities of great bust
ness executive, a profound scholar and
a brilliant orator, but such a union was
eXemplifed in the life Of Mr. DeBoer. 1t
was always a delight to listen to his
public addresses. His enunciation was
clear and distinct, his argument was
logical and his familiarity with the
masters of literature, ancient and mod
ern, enabled him to adorn his speech
with apt and graceful quotations. For
several years he was president Of Il
literary organization in Montpelier
known as The Club, and his introduc-
tions of the speakers were a deligh
to his hearers, showing as they did. h 5
wit. his humOr and his versatility.
| Mr.. DeBoer believed thoroughly in
| the future of Vermont and was inter
ested in all that pertaincd to its de-
velopment. His political ideals We're
high. He stood firmly for what he be-
lieved to be right and his career taken
as whole is splendid example Of
faithful and efficient service in public
and private life to hold before young
men. He was faithful and a loyal
friend and as one of the many who hal
the privilege of enjoying his friendship
I desire to testify my sincere apprecia-
ton of its worth.
We cannot estimate in our ordinary
terms of valuation the worth to a
State of its best citizenship; but Yer
mont today is poorer in the qualities
of highest value because of the pass
ing of Joseph Arcnd DeBoer
