ALL THE RIGHTS
SHE WANTS.

SHE WANTS.
The following poem from the in
teresting scrap-book of Mrs. o. E.
McReynolds viii be read with interest
by Journal readers:
She's got the right to handle broom,
And why does she want any more?
She may wash the dishes till day of
| doom,
And why does she want any more
She's got the right to cook and to
scrub,
To play the piano, or extraordinarily
In lowlier sphere, at the laundry
tub
| And why does she want any more
She's got the right to teach and to
sew,
4 And why does she want any more !?
| (She's only two-thirds of a teacher,
though
She may rock the cradle and mend
the hose
And solace her mind with dreams of
clothes
FOR else to the Woman's Page she
goes
/ And how can she want any more !?
She's got the right to a clerks en-
ploy-
| And how can she ask any more?
To take the place of younger boy
She mustn't ask any more.
| The right to labor as hard as she can,
Wherever they cannot afford a man,
And to get her pay on the half-rate
plan,
She mustn't ask any more.
She's got the right to a students
hat;
Now, how can she want any more ?
But somebody had to fight for that,
And she mustn't want any more.
She's got the right to a choice OF
schools,
And to quite respectable lot of tools
Such as have never been used By
fools
She cannot want any more.
She's got the right to soul-oh, YES
And why does she want any more
The right to be pious for two,
guess
Could any one ask for more?
She may hear the brethren preacl
! and pray,
: She may serve the Lord in a ouie
way,
.. With schemes for raising the parson'
pay
And why does she want any more
She's got the right to be taxed-o
hung
And nobody can have more!
{ She isn't forbidden to use her tongue
= And she never can want any more
And she has her representative nov
A piece of man-somewhere, some

A practical little play dress in
dull green chambray is this slip,
so simple yet so pretty. Two
patches of shocking done in a
shade of green lighter than the
frock itself, and collars and cuffs
of white embroidery make a
pretty trimming for it.
The tab finish for the belt is
odd and new. The buttons are
smoke pearl.

NOT AN EXPLANATION.

The Allen NJ. Fletcher Senatorial club
is indebted to ex-Gov. +. c. Smith of st.
Adams and his st. Adams Daily Messen-
ger for injecting into the senatorial cam
paign two subjects that might not other
wise have received attention These sub
iccts are native SON rule in holding
Office and the absurd mountain rule" in
selecting candidates. The only editorial
in the Messenger of last Friday was de-
voted to an explanation, which did not ex-
plain, ex-Gov. Smiths address delivered
at the meeting of the Greater Vermont
association held in Montpelier July u.
The editorial says the ex-governor words
were; Vermont should he governed by
Nermonters, and | mean true Vermont.
ers, and asks what is the matter with
that?' There is nothing the matter with
such statement, but skilled reporter
took down the ex-governor words as
follows: II want to say that / believe
our high offices in Vermont should be
kept for Nermonters,' and further
statement: There is not a state in the
Union that would tolerate the introduce
ton of outsiders to its high Offices"
The above questions were in no way re-
ferrcd to in the editorial explanation that
appeared in The Messenger. Therefore
the editorial explanation failed to ex-
plain. The Messenger should be given an
other opportunity. We await it, Per
haps cXGov. Smith didn't know what he
said. When he was governor he made
about as difficult work of trying to say
something as any man we have ever heard
in public life
And talking about this native SON
claim, isn't it true that about 80 per cent
of all the members of the United States
senate today were born outside the states
they now represent in the upper branch
of congress?

The hay crop on farms in Brattlebooro
and vicinity is double that of last year.
In one town the claim is made that the
farmers have an opportunity this year to
harvest more hay than in the three pre-
vious seasons combined. The only trou-
BILE is that the growth is so luxuriant and
the conditions so unfavorable that per-
haps not all of the grass will be cut and
put away in the barns. There is one good
thing about hay. 1t is not necessary to
use 1t the season Immediately after it is
cut 1t will carry over better than al
most any other crop. We wonder whether
the growth of grass this year makes any
OF the farmers think of possibilities. We
get the immense growth because of the
heavy fall of rain. But what about irr-
cation? Without their canals thousands
of farmers in western and southwestern
states would be in a deplorable condition.
With many of them their lands, which
now turn out valuable crops each season.
Nhhli be Ndlh'ltSS IpNl WHAT is tine mat
ter with irrigation in New England? BY
use of storage reservoirs and electric
pumps many acres which cannot be de-
pended upon to give crops with any de-
gree of certainty would blossom like the
rose every year. We know of some farms
within few miles of this village that
could be irrigated at very small expense.
But no one has ever had the tomerty to
try the experiment, About the only farm
crs in this part of the country who have
used the water supplies to keep their
crops in good condition are the cucumber,
onion and tobacco growers in certain
towns in the Connecticut valley in Massa.
chusetts towns 80 to 50 miles south of
lirattleboro, and they employ the over.
head system of pipes. We believe that
irrigation, in one form or another could
be employed with great profit on thou
sands of acres in New England.

STRONGHoLDs CAPTURED.
Important Gains Made This Week by
the British and Russian Forces on
Two Fronts.

The most important development of the
last week ending two years of the Euro
pean war has been the occupation by the
British of the village of Pozieres. The i'm
portance of this position lies in the fact
that 1t overlooks the plateau ON which the
German lines extend to the eastward for
many miles. Some of the most stubborn
lighting which has occurred in the war
took place before the British were in com
plete possession, as it was necessary to
take each house separately, so strongly
had the German Notifications been made
At the other points on the western front
She reports generally have been in favor
of the allies and the Germans have been
unable to make any advance at Verdun,
about the only spot where they are at
tempting anything like an offensive.
The Russians continue their victorious
advance and in the Gaican country have
made important gains and captured thou
sands of prisoners. In addition they have
driven the Turks entirely out of Armenia
and have taken possession of Ezingan.

Mount Hermon in Review.
(Grccnfeld Recorder.)


The most impressive feature of the
celebration of the 35th anniversary of
the founding of the Mount llcrmon
school for boys was the presence of n
number of the early graduates who
have won prominence i'll the affairs of
the world. The only prominence that
the founder of the school believed was
worth while as based on service and
of such sort have been the careers of
the men who as boys felt the direct
influence of his presence and example.
Recollections of Mr.. Moody and his
devotion to the schools which were the
expression of his ripe thought and pur-
pose are still fresh in the neighbor-
hood which he made world.famous. His
tremendous energy found its outlet in
the upbuilding of the schools at North
field You may still hear at Mortified
of the early morning driving of the
big dapple gray through the quiet Old
street as the evangelist made his way
from his home to the school across the
river. The ferrvman had to he up early.
The favorite conundrum of early Mount
Hermon bows was "Whv is Mr.. Moody
so good n manPO And its answer. "Be-
cause he drives so fast the devil can Z
catch him. There was no idleness in
the early days of the schools and the
activity the boys learned has evident
ly been sustained in their later days
They are an honorable array.
But Mount Hcrmon is not all his
tory. The impetus the founder gave ii
was not bounded by his own life. Its
purpose has been kept unimpaired and
what was done in the early days is be
ing done now only more extensively fol
the boys that come within its energiz
ing and upbuilding influence. Romance
fingers about the period when the
school was housed in the farm build
ngs of the two Purple farms, but
practically it has more now than ever
before to claim.

Washington Announces prospects Of

No clashes between the Americans

1t was announced at Washington late

Since coming to Brattleboro Rev.
Mr.. Kellogg has seen the number of
active communicates of the church
greatly increased as well as the average
attendance at the services. Not only has
he been active in the spiritual welfare
of his parishioners, but he has succeeded
in placing the church on better finan-
cial footing than it has been in years.
His departure will be greatly regret
ted generally in Brattleboro.

Efforts of the federal health service to
prevent, if possible, the spreading of in
iantile paralysis to cities and towns out
side of New York have been strengthened
by an order providing that no child l6
years old or under be permitted to leave
New York without a certificate from the
federal surgeons. All railroads leaving
the city are cooperating with the federal
and no tickets are sold unless
the required certificate is shown This
seems to be a hard provision in so far as
those who wish to take children out of
the metropolis are concerned, hut the ne
ccssity has arisen to protect the rest of
the country from the dread disease.

TRAPPED IN TUNNEL.
Terrible Disaster in Which About 80
Men Lost Their Lives Near Cleve-
land, Ohio.

A terrible disaster took place in Lake
Erie, five miles from the shore at Cleve-
land Monday night, when % men were
killed and half dozen others fatally
injured by the explosion. 1t is thought
that the electric apparatus ignited nat
ural gas which had escaped in the big
water works channel where two or three
other serious accidents have occurred
within the past two years. The first
explosion killed l men. Seven went to
their rescue and four of those persisted.
Six out of second rescue party of IL
also lost their lives.

The Louisiana purchase cost this
country $l5,000,0OO, and it was an EN-
pire in itself, although at the time the
payment was made the immense tract
was undcveloped. We paid only 1900
900 to Russia for Alaska, which pays
for itself many times over and is still
the country of uncovered wealth. The
three little islands which we expect to ac-
quire from Denmark at a cost of $25.-
100000 are almost no value from
n commercial standpoint, but they
are of great Importance as strategic
positions in defending the Panama
canal, and their acquisition by any ma
ton with hostile Intentions towards
America would he calamity. For what
we want of them they are worth the
price. Negotiations for their possession
have been attempted for years. Secre-
tary of State Hay arranged for their
purchase at Il cost of little over $4,000
600, but the Denmark parliament, under
the effect of German Influence. as is
supposed, refused to ratify the treaty.

MURDER IN SECOND DEGREE.
Otis Williams Convicted of Killing
Joseph Felch of Waits River Last
April.

Otis Williams, a young farm hand,
charged with the murder of Joseph
Felch in the latter's sugar house near
Waits River last April, was yesterday
pronounced guilty of murder in the sec
ond degree, by the jury, which reported
at 9.l5. Felch was killed by rifle bull
let. The testimony tended to show that
Williams was infatuated with Mrs.
Felch and that the couple desired to get
Felch out of the way. 1t is not ex-
pected that Mrs. Feich will be tried
at this term of court.

Here are some eloquent figures relating
to the number of automobiles and the
amount paid by them for the work of
maintaining highways In the United
States there is one automobile to A per-
sons; in Vermont one to %. The per
capita number of automobiles in Yer
mont is exceeded by only two states, Cali
fornia, one to Il and Iowa, one to l0. In
the United States the average amount of
license paid by automobiles is $40 while
in Vermont it is Sls.l0, the highest
amount of any state. In the majority OF
states, however, automobiles are subject
to local taxation, besides the state license
fee. The figures are decidedly creditable

Time is flying and some persons who
wish to get into the political cam
paign in this year of primaries will
find themselves marooned if they don t
watch out. The state primary will be
held Sept. II. All nominations for
state, congressional and county officers
must be filed 81 days before the state
primary. That means that all nomina-
tions for offices that appear on the SEN
ate congressional and county tickets
must be filed before August %. The
filing for state and congressional Offices
must be with the secretary of state,
for county officers with the county
clerk and for town representative with
the town clerk. The time for filing the
town representative nominations is II
days before the primary, or on or be-
fore August 2S. There was never a
year when there seemed to be dearth
of candidates for town representative
in Southern Vermont as at present
But men willing to serve the state as
legislators will doubtless declare them
selves in the next month.
