Church-going is an old-fashiOncd
habit which would be more useful if
it had the long, wiry. roots Of the al
falfa plant. The trouble with so much
modern church going is that it doesn t
strike deep enough to get people out
TO the divine service on rainy Sun
day, while the golf links and the ball
game viii drag them from home in
the face of a cloudburst.
Years ago one Of the most popular
ways Of spending Sunday was to 20 to
church and listen to sermon with Il
handspring longer than Il Waterbury
watch. Nobody STAYED away from
church on Sunday morning unless he
was totally paralvzed or the church
had been burned down the night he
fore. In those days church-going was a
duty which nobody could escape ullesS
he had contracted diphthcria in both
tonsils, and rs result the minister
was not obliged to look into the faces
of cold, empty pews and yaWniug

There was a great deal of whole
souled church going in this country
up to the time when the instalmcnt

ator Page undertook to answer a criti
cism Of his banking methods made by
thu late John II. Sentcr of Montpelier,
before the Farmer S club of the legis-
laturc, as we remember it. In this
long drawn-out defense of his bank
and his banking methods, Mr.. Page
saws that "aside from funds deposited
on call in New York and Boston, this
bank has never loaned dollar since
its organization, except on Vermont Sc
curity, or on paper guaranteed by a

The Morrisville Messenger also sug
gests that the bank commissioner
would have spoken right out in meet

ever had been done, and that his failure
to speak out in meeting implies that h,

At the time Mr.. Senter made hi

rumor was current to the effect tina
certain banks and individuals had mad
a practise of using each other to cove
their bank stock and to avoid taxa

himself were mentioned among other
as offenders. Is this true, Mr. Wi

something about an automobile which
removes man s mind from the church

has owned an automobile for a week

Automobile Licenses.
(St. Johnsburv CALIFORNIAN.

st. JOhnsburN talcdoniau.)
The point which The Reformer
wishes to emphasize is that licenses
are granted in Vermont III; ulv upon
application. There is no test applied
to see whether the driver is prohcIent
We believe many persons get licenses
who know nothing about the mcchan-
ism of a car. When YOU stop to
think of the automobile as a compli-
Gated machine capable of a speed al
most equal to that of Il locomotive
then you have Il slight realization of
the danger. The locomotive engineer,
who drives over smooth rails and who
is not called upon to turn out for other
machines or make SHARP curves where
the course in front of him is hidden,
is obliged to serve an apprenticeship
Of years before h. has the right 10

dotage, young men in homage and
giddy girls who do not know car

licenses to run automobiles over the
public highways, where they meet

ute. In Massachusetts and New Iamp.
shire an operator license is not
granted until the applicant has passed
| a severe examination operating a ear
| under all sorts of conditions under
! the eye Of n trained inspector. The
| persons who want licenses in Vermont
ought to practice on fair ground tracks
and private roads until they are quail
flied to pass a reasonably rigid exam

/ We agree with what The BrattleborC
| Rcformcr says about more stringent
requirements for license to operate
IN automobile. The automobiles are
so thick on the highways today tina
the driver of car is required nearl,
every minute to exercise skill an,
caution III passing team or anothe
automobile. The operator should hav'
the skill and the experience that vii
teach him caution before he is above,
to run ear alone on the public high
ways.

concerning automobile licenses tina
seems to have some merit. That j
