A Ballot in Favor of Decency.

The August Woman's Home Compan.
ion says in reference to its campaign fol-
cleaner movie films:
"The manufacturers OF indecent films
the publishers of indecent magazines can
be touched in only one point-their pock-
etbooks.
Just as long as there is sufficient pub
lie demand for their type OF product to
make it very profitable, they will con-
tinue TO supply that demand.
"But let them detect a quickening of
the public conscience against them, a
capitalization of active, intelligent SEN
timent making itself felt upon the local
theatre owner and the local newsdealer,
and their rush for the tanks of virtue
will take on the character of a STAN
pede.
IF 5000 families were to write this
week to the magazines that have chiefly
against decency by their covers,
their illustrations and their fiction, say
ing, 4 will never have your magazine in
my home again, and want you TO know
that / consider it unfit for family read
ing do you think that would have any
"Let me tell you that the effect of such
a protest would be perfectly tremen-
ious"
Below this comment is printed ballot
n favor of decency.

NORWICH UNIVERSITY

The Norwich boys encamped at Fort
Ethan Allen are once again in high spir'
its, for they hope to go TO the border
soon. At the calling out OF the militia
the latter part of June, nearly 90 per
cent of the Norwich cadets volunteered
10 serve with the first Vermont cavaffy
They went into camp at Fort Ethan Al
len with the expectation of soon going
TO the border. Time went on without
their receiving orders TO leave, and they
began TO fret over the delay Then the
government decided not to raise cav
airy regiment in Vermont, the boys were
transferred to the first Vermont infan-
try, and once moro they expected TO go
at once. Once more they were delayed
Now, however, they have been organized
into a machine gun company, a supply
company and headquarters company
mounted scouts, and the orders TO join
their regiment at Eagle Pass are ex-
pected tat any time. So smiles are
once more seen on the campground and
there is hustle and activity on every side.
But woe would once more abound If this
also proved TO be only wild rumor.
The only Norwich undergraduate to
reach the border so far is Sergeant Ma
ior Harry p Shaw, who, by the way,
entered Norwich from the canal zone,
Sergeant Shaw is acting as field secre-
tary TO Colonel Reeves of the first Yer
mont infantry. He was among the first
to reach Private Chaffee of Company +
when he was burned by the explosion of
an oil can. Colonel Reeves was the first
man to get to him and Sergeant Shaw
was a close second. They rolled Chaifee
in blankets, but the burns were too Sc
we're and he died within few days.
There are many Norwich graduates in
the militia of the different states and
in the regular army, nearly all of them
officers. w. II. Munsell, |
IA, is in the Springfield, VT, company |
as first lieutenant; John d. Murphy, rs, |
is quartermaster with the ninth Massa-
chusetts; +. b. Thomas, 49, is lieuten-
ant colonel of the first Vermont; H. b. /
$. Burwell, 10, is a second lieutenant in |
the 18th, L. S. cavalry and is now some
where in Mexico, and many others are
either in some of the militia organiza-
lions or with the regulars on the border.
Colonel Reeves of the first Vermont in
iantry is president of Norwich univer
'ity, having been inaugurated just one
lay before he joined his regiment at Fort
Ethan Allen. Incidentally, we note that
he first Vermont is called the best be-
laved regiment in Eagle Pass.
