There are reports that some public
schools in Vermont are in session de-
spite the edict of the state department OF
education that the schools remain closed
until Sept. Is. Perhaps the department
might investigate; and perhaps it has in
vestigated and has given permission for
certain schools to open earlier than Sept.
Is. If the latter, the public is left very
much in the dark as to the reason for the
discrimination.

The departure of Adjt, Gen. Lee s.
Tillotson of the Vermont military de
partment for the camp OF the first Yer
mont infantry at Eagle Pass, Tex, might
be interpreted as meaning that the Yer
mont soldiers are to be returned to their
home state within a reasonably short
time, although that officer disclaims the
possession of any knowledge of such a
move. He says that he IS coming back
inside of month. Just for a guess, we
will say that the Vermont soldiers are
coming back inside OF that same period
of time.

We trust that no Vermonters will vote
for Lieut. Robert E. Peary for United
States senator next Tuesday, taking
their cue from the editorial columns OF
New York paper which has not taken the
trouble to inform its readers that it erred
in accrediting Peary as citizen of Yer
mont some weeks ago. Perhaps the jour
nal in question considers a correction OF
the slip to be beneath its editorial dig

Why Prince Albert Wins
Patented Process Is Responsible for
Its international Popularity.

Smokers 50 much Appreciate the
flavor and GOODNESS and aroma Of
Prince Albert pipe and cigarette
tobacco that they often marvel that
this one brand could be so different
from all others.
The answer to this question is Ia
be found on the reverse side n
every Prince Albert package. where
YOU will read: Process Patented
July Both 1907 That tells the
whole story. Prince Albert is made
by "A patented process that cuts out
the bite and parch, which makes
the tobacco so mighty agreeable
and satisfying to men of every taste
of every civilized nation on the
globe.
Smokers should realized that this
patented process cost three years
continuous work and study and a
fortune in money to perfect But
the result has proven to be worth
all that was expended upon it, be-
cause it has set free men who be-
lieved they never could enjoy a
pipe or a makin's cigarette.
Prince Albert makes it possible
for every man to smoke pipe or
to roll his own cigarettes, And no
matter how tender the tongue
Prince Albert cannot bite or parch.
That is cut out by the patented
process, leaving for the smoker
only the joys of the fras rant to.

Albert arrived" just about six
years ago, it has made three men
