The Barre Times, in its Chelsea cor
respondence tells a graphic story of a
JOY ride by three men by the name Of
Kezer, two of whom lived in Granite
vile, and the third in Corinth, The
description plainly shows that the party
were all either drunk or crazy, and
in either event they were not fit to run
an automobile. Backing the eye
of man who courteously offered to
assist them to return the car to the
road is not the act Of a man sane and
sober, and the proper authorities
should see to it that whichever of the
Kezers had license to run the Ford
has his license revoked Drunken au-
toists are always a menace to the safety
of all travellers, and such penalty is
none too drastic for the case,

HELP THE ALBANIANS.

While the people of the United States
have been sending thirty million dollar
worth of relief to Europe and Turkey,
two hundred thousand women and chill
dren in Albania have died of starvation,
William Willard Howard of New
York, who has returned from his third
trip to this hunger zone of Europe, pre-
diets that the entire population of
Albania will die of famine and pesti-
lence unless helped. He says that in
Albania corn is fifty dollars a bushel,
flour eighty dollars a sack, and maca-
roni five dollars pound.
1.-The tragedy of Albania says Mr..
Howard, sis that a nation is dying of
hunger while the people of the United
States, laden with gifts for the rest of
Europe and for Turkey, pass by on
the other side.
The Albanians are as much entitled
to sympathy and help as others. They
have not taken part in the war They
fed and sheltered the refugees from
Servia, even with the last measure of
corn that the famine-smitten villages
possessed. They have not done any
wrong; yet armies have swept over their
country, taking what could be found to
take, leaving to the starving women
and children only the carcasses of dead
horses in the streets.
"a number of distinguished gentle
men in New York-mostly clergymen
and editors of newspapers-will CO.

for the ship. The treasurer selected to
receive contributions is the Rev.

OUR VERMONT COLLEGES.
Randolph Herald,

The three Vermont colleges have
begun their year under most favorable
auspices. The University of Vermont
has an entering class of more than two
hundred-t the largest in its history. The
scholarships offered at Vermont the
past two years to the boy and girl OF
each high schoolin the State who ranked
first in scholarship, has had the
effect of stimulating attendance and
also of attracting a very desirable class
of students. The.University of Yer
mont is we'll situated for serving the
educational wants of young men and
women, In location, plant, equipment
and instructors there is very little left
to be desired.
Middlebury college has made great
strides in the past few years. This year
it opens with one hundred and twenty
freshmen and student body of nearly
five hundred. With fine traditions of
accomplishment and proud past,
Middlebury has taken new lease of
life, evidenced by the splendid recent
additions to its plant-Pearsons hall,
the girls dormitory; Hepburn hall, the
boys dormitory; Mead chapel, Porter
athletic field, etc. 1t would surprise
and crafty Vermonters who have not
visited Middlebury within half dozen
years to inspect the new row Of college
buildings, representing nearly half a
million dollars, that have grown there.
One could scarcely conceive better at
mosphere for work of the kind Middle
bury offers.
Norwich university at Mortified has
an entering class of ninety almost a
record. There has been a great revival
of interest in Norwich for various
reasons. 1t is seen that the combina-
ton of military training so efficient as
to rank as professional with academical
instruction produces fine type of we'll
set-up men physically, as well as men,
tally. Some very great anticipations
are held, apparently with good reason,
of future additions to Norwich that
will give it the facilities for handling

wages as large as those his father re-
ceived few years ago, The result is
that boys are unwilling to start in oc'
equations where the wages are small,
but where they have a chance to learn
something which will fit them for adj
vancement in the coming years. The
boys who put aside the temptation OF
temporary gain and try to fit them
selves for mature years are the ones
who will eventually hold the commando
ing positions.

THE POTATO CROP.
Bennington Banner.

The potato crop in New England is
not proving to be the failure that was
reported earlier. Whether the present
high price will continue depends
though on the crop in other places.
Had Vermont farmers known last
spring that potatoes would be dollar
a bushel this fall they could have paid
off their mortgages by raising po-
tatoes. For a term of years now
potatoes have been very high once
every three or four seasons. 1t might
pay to raise a crop every year so as to
be ready when the high priced year
comes along.

FRUIT IN VERMONT,
sprlngneld Reporter


According to eX-Gov. Nelson W.,
Fisk of Isle LaMotte $4,000 barrels Of
apples will be harvested in that one
town alone this year. Vermont has
GAG cities and towns; if the average
yield of apples in the entire State was
but 1000 per town, instead of $4,000, the
income brought to Vermont farmers
would be around $2,OOO,OOO a year
Grand Isle county is the best fruit
growing section of the State, it is true,
but every section is good, and there is
not town where more than 4POO
barrels could not proftably be grown
for the market every year. Vermont
can produce better apples than Oregon
when Vermont farmers put as much
skill and elbow grease into the work
of raising them. The Green Mountain
State should be known as the great
fruit growing section of New England,
and its apples should have a reputation
in every great city in the country.

DECREASE IN DEATH RATE.
Rutland News.


Recently announced figures from the
1915 census show big fall in the death
rate. For the whole country these
figures show 1875 per thousand. Fifteen
years ago the rate was l62 2. The
American people are growing healthier
Better knowledge of sanitation,
better physical development, advance
of medical science, account for this
change. There are great many
people who instead of dosing them
selves with drugs as formerly, get
out and exercise. More people work
and sleep with their windows open.
There is less horror of fresh air
No doubt the present rate can be
still further lowered. 1t is up to
everyone to cooperate with physicians
and boards of health in removing all
known causes of disease. Premature
death is one of the great causes Of
poverty. Every time wage Garner is
taken away before his time, some one
is thrown on charity.

The Addison County Fair association
at Middlebury must have department
of financiering; a surplus of $l,7l9.l is
reported after the accounts of the most
recent fair were balanced. But the as
ISOLATION has been giving some frst-rate
fairs for many years and has the advan-
tage of developed prestige which some
fair associations in Vermont are per-
hitting to fall away from them. That
may account in part for the financial
success of the undertaking.

"WORKING" PEOPLE.

Henry Ford says that he does not
like the term working" people. He
would say industrial people or
something like that. How long since,
in the worlds history, has it become
a reflection on a man because he is a
worker? Work is the salvation of
the race. Without it we should be
savages. When a man is too old for
work his usefulness in this world is
practically at an end. Work is a good,
old time word concerned in honesty of
purpose. Work drives the devil away.
All honor to the working man and sor-
row for the working man who is
ashamed of his title.

Older BUT STRONGER

To be healthy at seventy, prepare at
forty, is sound advice, because in the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or careless treat
ment Of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep your
blood pure and rich and active with the
strength building and blood'nourishing
properties of SCOTS Emulsion which lisa
food, tonic and medicine to keep your
blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and
avoid sickness. No alcohol in Scots.

PRE-ELECTION CEREMONIES.

The time has gone when brass bands
and torchlight possessions figured in
prediction ceremonies. The people
are sick of such display of interest.
They have found out that it amounts

for the half drunken spell binder. Each
man for himself is thinking. The
longer each one does think for himself,
the less bad government we will have

The Republican state machine of New York was
built on the patronage first principle Justly or I'M
Justly, Col Roosevelt has always been said to have
abided by the patronage idea and TO have made his
appointments upon the suggestion OF the Republican
bosses.
After his election Hughes quickly gave evidence
that ne had small idea of dealing with the bosses and

the party organization was danger of going to pieces

Another incident which the nomination of Mr.
Hughes brings back to mind is the gas investigation
Il Is often said that his insurance investigation
which brought the future presidential candidate hrst
into the n,elight but such IS not the fact In 1905
was picked by state investigation committee chair
IN as counsel for the committee comparatively
unknown man. So many franchise, stock and price
abuses were discovered and corrected that hughes
won fame and hold on the public, and when the ARM
strong committee began the insurance investigation
IL was the logical choice for counsel In two weeks

matters. even on actuarial statistics, that he could
more than hold his own with the great corporation
lawyers who opposed him.
One noticeable fact about the Hughes nomination Is
that m advance of the conventions action little en-

facts which prove the tremendous ability as well as
interest in the publcs welfare Mr. Hughes has dis
