HEAD OF PHILIPPINE
MAHOMETANS DIES
Sheik- ul- Gilani Had Come TO
Acuuaint Us with the MOroS.

Richmond, Va, May 6.-Sayed Mo-
manned Wajih nj Gilani, Sheik-ul"
Islam of the Philippines, died here
yesterday in the Hygeia Hospital
after an illness of months duration.
Ruler Of 100000 Mosiem subjects,
a man of letters, and speaking six dif-
ferent languages, Sheik-ul-Gilani, had
come TO America TO tell the people Of
the Estates" that the Mahometan
Moros Of the Philippine interior were
not fanatical in fact, that they were
good people at heart. At his death
the great Sheik was attended only ny
his Moorish valet, Tahir.
The Sheik's home was in Nazareth
Syria. He was appointed by the Sui
tan as special representative in the
Philippines. Hussein Bey, acting
Turkish Ambassador, visited the
Sheik last week. The latter wns only
thirty-three years old.
Sheik-ul- Gilani arrived in New York
along with twenty-one actors Of the
cast Of "The Garden of Allah" August
-, 1915. He stayed in New York only
day, and soon left for the South.
CARRIED in turban and Oriental robe,
he attracted much attention, but he
confessed a belief IN woman suffrage,
monogamy and liberalism in religion.
He wrote book entitled what Saith

THE OPEN WINDOW.

"Open Window Week" is to be observed
in New York City during the week begin
ming with Monday Dec. 4, and elaborate
plans are being made to enlist the people
Of the metropolis in movement for bet
ter ventilation of sleeping rooms. As
means to educating the people to the
advisability of keeping windows open as
much as possible during the winter
months, the plan is very good-so good,
in fact, that it ought to find favor all
through the land. The benefit to be
gained cannot be measured, but it is GER
tain that good ventilation means better
health and, by the same token, longer
life for those who come within the in
fuence of better air. In summer time
there is no need for propaganda of that
sort because people will keep their win
dows open as measure OF self-protection
against the heat; but in winter time
there is marked need Of encouragement
TO them because as they begin to shiver
they begin to close their houses until the
buildings are all but sealed up. The re-
suit is that there is greater susceptibility
TO disease and greater work for the doc
tors. If by means of the "Open Window
Week" observance the people can be
taught to realize the advantages of fresh
air all the year around, the effort will
have been we'll made. Let it be fresh air
not only during the week of Dec. but
LET II be fresh air all the year, hot OF
cold, rainy or clear. The individual and
collective benefit would be remarkable.

Judge Hooks Ruling.

The ruling of Judge Hook yesterday at
Kansas that the Adamson act is uncon-
stitutional was but pro forma-to per-
NIT the question to speedily pass to the
supreme court. Judge Hook did not go
into the merits of the case, making this
plain when announcing his decision. No
presumption either for or against the
validity of the law is created by the &C.
ton.
The assault on the legality of the law
is threefold The ma or attack is on the
ground that it is unconstitutional nor
Congress to fix the wages to be paid by
private corporations; secondary to TINS
are the averments that the wages PAID
by an interstate corporation are not an
interstate part of its business and that
tbe Adsmson act is so drawn that 1T is
impossible to tell what its mandates are.
1t is greatly to be hoped that the SUI
nreme court will decide the case on the
main question and not turn aside TO ell
Their of the side tracks. The public very
much wants a direct answer to the ques'
ton of whether legislative bodies in TINS
county have general age-tixing powers
If Congress has it as to interstate busl-
ness. then the states have 1t as to state
business. and we must face the issue or
whether universal wage-hxing is desir-
able even though constitutionally per-
missible. This is the biggest domestic IS
sue. except perhaps the issue OF slavery
that this country has ever faced.-New

BOND FORFEITURE
is NOT RELISHED BY
CENTRAL POWER co
CONTINUED from first pagel

to the fact that the city council recently
contracted to pay the Central Vermont
railroad stated sum per annum for the
privilege of extending a water main
through the Granite City driving park
and gave it as his opinion that people
get very little from the railroad com
panies unless they pay the price. Alder.
man Reynolds said that the Barre d
Chelsea railroad will be asked in few
days to grant the use of railroad land at
North Barre for public skating rink and
thought it the better part OF reason to
reciproeate, inasmuch as the use OF the
ground was given by the road Tor skat-
inc purposes last winter.
Alderman ShurtleH evidently did not
relish the per annum charge for the Gran
lite City driving park extension, Tor he
said that the water department could
have circled around the park without
paving the s. per year asked by the
Central Vermont road. As for skating
Kinks. he recalled a day when youngsters
skated on the brooks, etc, provided by
nature or skated not at all. Before the
little controversy ended, it was under
stood that provisions for a nominal
charge should be inserted in the loop

the council Monday evening,

CURRENT COMMENT
A Vanished Industry.

What has become of the little Vermont
girl who, watching her mother dress tur-
KEYS for the market, carefully wrote per.
sonal notes with the approval OF her fond
parent and enclosed one in each OF the
earcasses that were to be shipped to the
dealers. Usually the note ran something
like this:
"To whoever may find this. am little
Mary Brighteyes, and ] am poor gifl
living on a hillside farm and | help my
father and mother all the time, so that
cannot 90 to school much. If my father
and mother were not poor they would
buy nice clothes and other things for me,
and / hope that if somebody who finds
this can afford to do SO he will send a
holiday reminder to little Mary Bright
ewes, aged 10, who lives in Green Village,
Vt"
Missives of that character were almost
az common some years ago as the cham
letters which now and then drive the
postal authorities to despair. One OF
them reached the late Hugh OBrlen'
when he was mayor of Boston, and that
particular little Mary Brighteyes received
a gold watch as her reward.
The turkey-not industry seems TO
have died out Perhaps that Is because
so many OF our genuine Vermont turkeys
come nowadays from Rhode Island and
the Middle West.-Boston Traveller.

The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1916-12-02

The war situation is this: Germany is
willing to stop fighting but wants to
dictate the terms. Which calls to mind
the report of German American coming
back to the United States with the report
that Germans feel they have technically
won the war but cannot clinch the vie
tory. If the war should end under the
present conditions, it would never be pos
sible to convince Germans otherwise than
that they were the yietors although they
couldn't put on the finishing blows. Such
an opinion is the natural outgrowth OF
the German spirit of self sufieiency, il
not of real egotism The Germans will
never admit defeat until the war Is
forced into some vital part of their own
snug domain and the people feel the Ell
feet of the ravages which they have been
inficting on their weaker enemies.

TwINES FROM PAPER.
Satisfactory Experiment Made at Madi-
son, Wis.

That wrapping twines which give thor
ough satisfaction can be made from pa
per has been demonstrated by expert
ments made by the forest products lsbo-
ratory at Madison, Wis. Several hundred
packages, each containing a medium sized
book, were wrapped and fastened with
the lightest- weight paper Irvine and were
mailed to various points throughout the
United States, Reports show that prac-
tically every package was received in
good order and that in no case was there
any damage which could be charged as
a fault of the Irvine.
In making the Irvine she paper is cut
into narrow strips which are then twist.
ed tightly to form cord. The strength
of the Irvine depends upon the character
of the paper used and the process OF
treatment. II is we'll adapted TO a num-
Der of purposes, but the foresters say
that as yet no satisfactory means has
been found for protecting paper Irvine
from the action of water and it should
not be used where it will be exposed to
moisture.

Rumania Guessed Wrong.

Rumania must be added to the list OF
small nations that have found the game
of war too stiff a game for them. Now
that Falkenhayn and Mackensen have
Joined forces and are ready to move on
TO Bucharest the complete subjugation of
Rumania has become a dismal prospect
for the people of that nation. An early
and a severe winter seems their chief
prospect.
The sympathy which has been extended
to Belgium. Serbia and Montenegro will
not be extended to Rumania. Her en-
trance into the war was cold blooded.
Her leaders calculated that the allies
would win and, after remaining neutral
until last August, they climbed on the
bloody band wagon and declared war
against Austria. They thought that the
Russians were about to slice their way
through Austria. Instead OF that the
best German generals were assigned to
attend to Rumania Their task is near
~ accomplished.
From the point of view of the allies
the campaign in Rumania has been a
service to the Teutonic cause 1t
has kept two of the best German com
manders busy for three months. Every
she'll fred against Rumanian position
meant one less shell to use on the west
ern or Russian front. The Germans have
gained in prestige at an expenditure OF
men, munitions and energy which they
must spare grudgingly. At the same
time, the fall of Rumania has produced a
fresh protest in England against the fail
ure of the allied strategy. The Ruma-
MAN campaign has strengthened rather
than weakened the position of Germany
in the near. east. The bridge between
Berlin and Constantinople is broader and
stronger than it was three months ago
