INVITE YOUR FRIENDS TO VISIT YOU
DURING THE FARE-REFUNDING WEEK

The Times wishes to call attention
again to the suggestion made the other
day that the big trade week in Barre be
made home -coming affair, as well as a
trading event. The suggestion is splen-
did one, and it is desired that all our
readers make mention of the occasion
and extend an invitation to come to
Barre next week to visit and shop, when
writing to relatives and friends residing
outside the city.
Not only are the merchants going to
make special inducements to the buying
public in the way of prices and assert
ment of merchandise, but in addition to
this they have arranged to refund the.
railroad fares to all out-of- town GUS
toners.
A pleasing feature of this part of the
arrangement as previously stated is the
fact that person Is not compelled to
make his purchases all at one store, but
he can, on the contrary, trade at as many
different stores as he may like, the only
provision being that the aggregate
amount of his purchases equal the sum
designated in the published schedule.
Say, for instance, a person coming from
town where the amount to be pIIr-
chased is SIS, can, if desired, trade at Is
different stores, spending 81 at each
place, and still be entitled to his fare
back, just the same as though he spent
the whole SIS at one store. The pur-
chases, however, must all be made at the
stores which are participating in the
sale, and whose names are listed on the
back of the refunding slips furnished by
the merchants to each customer. Full
instructions as to how these refundng
slips are to be used will be published in

Bearing in mind the former break,
Postmaster Wilber has been careful to
make deposits frequently so that bur
glars, should they succeed in getting into
his stronghold, could not secure much
booty. He deposits in a Barre bank as
often as three or four times week and
on Saturday morning he sent the funds
collected up to that date. The money in
the safe which the burglars all but
reached, constituted the Saturdays bus
mess, together with the postoffice stock.
The cash drawer he was careful to keep
open, and at the same time he did not
intend to leave much money reposing in
the drawer. The safe, while heavy, was
not calculated to resist burglars attacks.
The postoffice was still doing business
to-d day and was the center of interest in
the village.

India's 19.00O Castles

James Blssett Pratt in World Outlook
 Four years ago. up in the northwest of lndia, a child belonging to a Brahmin family fell into a well. All the men of the famlly were away. and the women wero helpless. The servant known as the sweeper-a very low caste man-of- Tered to climb down into the well and res cut the child. His suggestion was regard ed by the women as scandaous. for his touch would have defiled the drinking water of the household and also the drowning boy. Hence the little fellow was left in the well, to be fished ont dead some time later by the clean hands Of Brahmn. Rather death than de- hlement from the touch of an 'untouch- able,'
 At present there are upward of 1s GOO castes and subcastes in India, most of them belonging to one of the three sro,,ns known as Brahmins, Shudras and Out- casts Individual belongings to the lar ter of these groups are considered so inn pl're m nature that to touch them brings dthiement-hence their common designa uon, the untouchables. The higher castes though relatively tolerant of, each other, must not dine together nor inter- marry, on pain of social persecution which, for noeS iadividuals is almost un- esAaurahes

Americas Appalling Fire Loss

D.
 Every man. woman and child in the United States pays 8 a year for fire waste. If on a certain day of the year a government official should go to the ay- craze faimly of five persons and present a bill for $15 as the annual fire tax Of the family, there would be a universal protest against the tax and against the carelessness which makes possible a year ly fire waste of s25o, ,000, ,O00 in this country Big manufacturers and big merchants know that the fire expense to which they are subjected is drain on all the people but because it is indirect the avera se person is not conscious he is paving a. tax! Let the masses once realize that every time they buy hat, a pair of shoes or suit of clothes or anything which goes through the regular channels of industry, production, distribution and exchange, they are paying a part of the country's enormous fire tax, and fire prevention would become the order of the day
 Our fire waste seems especially shame. ful when placed in comparison with that of Europe. The federal department of commerce and labor shows that the av- craze annual per capita fire loss in six European countries is B cents compared with s in the United States and s3O7 in Canada. Boston two years ago reported an annual fire loss of $2000,GD0, while the fire loss of Glasgow, through larger than Boston. was less than one-sixth of this amount. Chicagos fire loss was $y.OO0, GOO Ber1in's only $175,0OO. and although cities of the same size Chicago's fire depart ment cost ten times as much as Berlin's.

hand who can deal effectively with it. If we can get a man as minister of com merce who understands mercantile condl- tions he could be very valuable.
 His usefulness would be wide. The business of his department should be largely propogandist-the initiation of proposals for the opening of markets. The foreign office does something in this line through its consuls, but they are mostly aliens, and busy with other matters.
 Look at what the Americans are do- ing. We must prepare the financial ma- cbinery for business development just as they are doing. An American corpora tion is already at work throughout Latin America, backed with heavy capitaliza- tion in an attempt to capture trade and commerce in that region It aims among other things at buying American securi- ties now being sent back by Great Brit ain whenever these are of a type which are likely to aid it in securing a con- trolling influence in South American coun- tries. A British ministry of commerce could counteract these influences by time ly action; but the Board of Trade, as at present constituted, has neither the power to take action nor the necessary intia- tive"

Fashion Notes

Fashion Notes From Judge.
 Fresh air popularity has at last brought evening dress into the open. and it will soon dominate our streets to the waistline ward the flare.
 All trains are worn on the front of gowns The effect of this dernier cri is too wonderful to describe, partic- ularly when combined with the ultra abbreviated models.
 The simple street suit is ornate and economical.
 Hats are still worn on some favor ite part of the head.
 Styles from Spain, Russia and Tur- key are recognized.
 Fur and chiffon are the sole ma terials for lingerie.
 Necks show no desire to be covered. though the whole fur pelt is promised for hot weather garniture
 Some costumes are all coat; others all straw hat; still others all that is possible.
 Flowers are no longer worn on headgear, it beig somewhat far fetched They are properly relegated to the dec oration of boot tops. This fills in a suitable space.
 Stockings no longer come solid, but are tastefully buttoned the entire length.
 A note of extreme reserve and quiet simplicity distinguishes the modes.

NORTH IS DEVASTATED

For the moment the great manufac- turing district of the north is elimi- mated; every machine that was worth moving has disappeared from the fac tories and must be replaced after peace Is declared. The new installations will require considerable time and in the meantime the industries of the interior will no more than suffice for home needs.
 France will also Ls exposed to dumping since our customs tariff is specific instead of ad valorem. It will require a new law as with you to raise a barrier against it. For us it will not be so important perhaps, because other measures Mil prevent commer- cial encroachments after the war by our adversaries. For America, no doubt, the proposed protective legisla- tion is excellent, and 1t will not be material to France because, as I have already said. France has no trash to dump anywhere. I will qualify that statement to this extent--in our spe- cial industries such as hats and other articles of fashion, styles often change suddenly and stocks of goods out of style remain on hand. These are often sold at reduced prices, but I doubt if they are ever offered at less than the cost of the manufacture
 "A certain mi apprehension has pre-
 
 to compete with home products in foreign countries It was not because they could produce cheaper A number of the Ger man specialties are nearly twice as dear to make in Germany as in England, yet they exported them and competed in prices This was possible because the profit on goods sold at home was sufficient to enable the sacrifice of surplus production abroad. This custom of German manu- lecturers followed for years before the war may properly be called an established continual system of "dumping:" after the war, if they have products to throw upon foreign markets 1t will be no change whatever in their system. I do not think, however that they will have such an ac- cumulation of products of this class as is apprehended. Their industries are largely centered in the manufacture of munitions of war. As for the others, they obtain raw materials with difficulty and must now find considerable difficulty in keeping their forces of workmen up to the point where their production can more than satisfy the home demand
