SCHOOL FOR DETECTIVES

Editor Advertiser-When / read IL
The Advertiser this morning, "Defee.
tive Children in Territory to Be Given
Attention" my heart gave bound of
great joy; not at the thought of de.
fective children, not 1t the hopeless
future and unhappiness of the blind
and deaf and dumb, but that ways and
means are being devised TO gather to-.
gether the unfortunates, children who
aow have no nope Of the future and
educate and mould them into becoming
useful and happy citizens in later
years.
When we read of the achievements
and Accomplishments of Helen Keller,
all we can say is that every cent and
every moment spent on her education
and development was well worth while.
When we read of bind girl going
from the California Institute for the
Deaf and Blind to the University of
Chicago and later graduating with the
highest honors, of her class we marvel
and simply say "Well done" When
we read of a blind minister who was
the head Of his synod and leader of his
people for over fifty years until his
death, we can but say owen done,
good and faithful servant"
These are actual facts that have been
accomplished by teaching the blind,
not only to become elf-suppOrting, but
has also developed helpless people into
becoming leaders in thought, religion
and industry.
When l look back four years / can
see a little lad looking into a hopeless
future with sightless eyes, and it seems
20 me 1t was but hideous night mare
as that young lad is now student in
the California Institute for the Deaf
and Blind, in Berkeley, and is develop.
ing a very promising future.
The California Institute for the
Deaf and Blind is a State institution
which not only eduates the blind, deaf
and dumb and mentally defective, but
also teaches them several different
trades adapted TO their faculties. For
instance: the deaf and dumb are
taught tailoring, shoemaking, to be
BARRIERS and printers; the blind are
taught to be pianO-tuners, Chair
caneing, hammock weaving, broom.
making and other trades.
1t is my prayer that the coming
Legislature will be able to devise ways
and means for the establishment OF
an institute in this Territory on the
same lines as the one in Berkeley,
California, wherein the mentally defec,
tive, the blind and the deaf and dumb
may be gathered together and taught
and educated into becoming useful
and self-supportiug citizens, and conse,
quently happy men and women Of the
future.
When it comes to writing on a sub.
ject of this kind I deeply regret that
1 have not the fertile mind Of Samuel
g. Blythe or the vivid Imagination of
u Joseph Conrad, but l hope some
more capable mind than mine will lift
their voice in the interest of the un
fortunate children of this Territory
and urge that something be done for
their development into useful and self,
citizens of the future.
Respectfully yours

Defective Children
IN Territory TO
Be Given Attention!

Data in regard to the number of
physically or mentally deficient and de-
fective children in the Territory will be
gathered and the Information so Sc.
cured will probably be made the sub
ject Of legislstion next session.
( The following letter was sent out
yesterday by superintendent Kinney TO
supervising principals Miss Bertha Der
Taylor of v est Hawaii, Miss Berniet
Hundley Of Kauai, Eugene Horner OF
East Hawaii, William MeCluskey OF
Maui, and james G. Davis of Oahu:
at is desired to secure some data
in regard-t0 the number of physically
or mentally defective children in thi
Territory whose infrmities render IL
impossible for them to attend the OF
binary schools
at is probable that data of value
can be secured If the principals Of the
various schools make inquiry from the
children in their institutions with re
gard to the existence of such indivi
duals in the vieinities concerned.
win you, therefore, kindly ask thr
various principals in your district :,
make inquiries among their pupils rela
tive to the number Of DETECTIVES o,
whom they know, and that they make
lists showing the names and places Of
residence of these children, as well
the character of the defects from
which they suffer; such as, for instance
idiocy, great mental backwardpess;
blindness, partial or total; deafness
partial or total; or such physical de
fects as render locomotion impossible
"There is no demand for immediate
information on this matter. and IL thesr
data are secured before Christmas, the
department will be quite satisfied"

TWICE-TOLD TESTIMONY.
Barton People are Doing all They can
for Fellow Sufferers.

Barton testimony has been pub
ished to prove the merit of Doan's
Kidney Pills to others in Barton who
suffer from bad backs and kidney ills.
Lest any sufferer doubt this evidence
of merit, we produce confirmed proof
statements from Barton people
who again endorse Doan's Kidney
Pills-confirm their former testimony.
Here's Barton case:
F. F. Sawyer, Main street, Barton,
says: 81 wish as many suffering men
and women as I can reach through
this statement to know the merit OF
Doan's Kidney Pills. I was greatly
benefited by this medicine, and also
know of several other people who
have been cured of bad attacks of
kidney complaint by it's use. Doan's
Kidney Pills rid me of pains in my
back and other distressing symptoms
of disordered Kidneys"
PROVED BY TIME.
AFTER A LAPSE OF MORE THAN
TWO YEARS, Mr.. Sawyer said: 81
haven't had occasion to use any
kidney medicine since used Doan's
Kidney Pills. am pleased to again
recommend this Incidence
Price SOC, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get

BRIGHAM on Vermont Dairy Products.

Vermont milk sent out of the state
in 1914 was valued at $4,000, 900 /:
butter made in creameries at So. $780,
900. with sweet cream butter fat
shipped worth 5000, 900; and $500, 900
worth of cheese was produced. These
figures were features of the chief
paper at session of the annual school
of instruction for health officers of the
Vermont State board of health held in
Burlington last week.
A unanimous vote of thanks was
given E. S. Brigham commissioner of
agriculture at it's conclusion.
Mr.. Brigham said the dairy industry
in the state presented two important
problems, The consumer demands
dairy foods at a low price and wants
sanitary conditions in their production i;
the producer asks how he can meet the
sanitary requirements and still make a
profit. The cost of keeping cow was
500. Is year from which deducting SIS
for manure and So for the value of the
calf the average cost of production of
milk was 3.4 cents per quart. 81 have
yet to find, however. a dairyman who
was satisfied to sell milk which cost 3.
cents per quart to produce for 80
cents, which was the average price
paid by Boston milk contractors in
Vermont for the year 1914. If an
accurate charge is made for all items
which enter into the cost of producing
milk the account will show no profit
at the prices paid by the city contrac-
tors"
eft is my opinion that the milk situa.
ton in Vermont may be improved in
three ways: First, the limitations of
the requirements of health boards to
those things which are necessary to
safeguard the public health; second,
the payment for milk on basis which
will make q distinction in price be.
tween good and poor milk; third. the
securing for the producer of price
which will enable him to make q
reasonable profit in his business.

CALEDONIA COUNTY.

The first clock of which any men
ton is made in the early history of st.
Johnsbury, and which stood in Edson's
tavern in 1899, has been presented to
the St. Johnsbury athenaeum, where it
has been set up. The time-keeping
qualities of the clock are as good as
when it was in use lit years ago.

"Speaking generally, the list was
made up, to a quite considerable
extent, from names found in Wal
tons Vermont Register, from 1910
forward, as well as from rosters of
Grand Army Posts, Oranges and
other fraternal organizations.
Let us analyze this matter little
more closely. What class of per-
sons in Vermont is it that, to the
extent of more than 80 out of every
81, believe that public sentiment is
for the return of Senator Page?
Let US see what grounds for COM
plant, if any, the friends of
Governor Fletcher properly have
against the class of individuals to
whom this test vote was referred.
Governor Fletcher was a mem
Der of the Legislature, either in
the capacity of Representative,
Senator, or Governor, from Octo-
Der, 1902, to January, 1915. Dur
ing all these years he was forming
close personal acquaintance with
the different members of these
Legislatures, and for the two years
of his incumbency of the guber-
material office filled 18o appointive
positions.
On the other hand since 1908
Senator Page has been in attend
ance upon his duties at Washing
ton. Only once during that whole
period has he left the Senate while
Congress was in session, to meet
and make the acquaintance of his
constituents, not that he would not
have been very much pleased to do
so, but rather because he felt that
he could not do so without neglect
of duty. His lack of personal
touch and contact with his con-
stituents has been regarded by
many as his chiefest fault, but be
that as it may, everyone under.
stands that it is usually safe tc
assert that when the Senate is in
session Senator Page can be founc
at the National Capitol.
In brief, while ex-Gov. Fletcher
has had eTery opportunity to meet
and come into close personal touch
, with the people of Vermont, ane
under the most favorable condi
. tons, Senator Page has been de
prived of this great privilege.
t How then can it be truthful,
j said that a list comprising all tn
living members of the Legislature
+ of Vermont from and Including
, 1910 up to the present time, be
+ tween 700 and 500 in all, is UNFA1
" so far as Governor Fletcher is cor
cerned? If UNFAIR to any one wa
it not unfair to Senator Page
# Did not Governor Fletcher hav

SENATOR PAGES REELECTION
Do the People Desire his Return
to the Senate?

The Lyndonville Unlon-1ou,nal
sent out letters to several thousand
prominent VERMoNTERs asking
their opinion as to public senti-
ment on the United States Sena-
torship question.
The first returns, being those
received up to the time the Union
Journal first went to press after
the sending out of these letters,
showed the following results at the
end of the first week:
For SENATOR PAGE 324I
For Ex-Gov. FLETCHER Sc
At the end of the second week !:
For SENATOR PAGE 3775

Some of the newspapers of the
state, in commenting upon the
extraordinary preponderance of
Page preference, have been inclin-
ed to question the fairness of this
test vote, the Montbelier Argus 60
ing to the extent of intimating that
the letters were only sent to the
personal friends of Senator Page.
Here is its language:
"One paper asserts that the list
of names was made up of Page
