Times have certainly changed when it
becomes necessary for a United States
Senator and such a one as Hon. Ca T ii
s. Page to make an announcement to the
people of Vermont like the one found in
this issue in which he gives his reasons
for coming before them for their support.
In years past there would have been no
question as to his return. He could claim
it by right of precedence and by a lime
honored observance to say nothing of du-
ties faithfully and conscientiously done.
The reasons he gives for his return are
such as should appeal to the people who
appreciate service of kind that has
never been bettered under conditions and
circumstances by any Vermonter in the
Halls of Congress Fair Haven Era.

Senator Pages letter to the people OF
Vermont, announcing his candidacy for
reelection to the United States Senate,
appears in another column. 1t is a
straight forward, dignihed statement,
and should confirm what we believe to
be the judgment Of a large majority of
the voters OF the State, that logica ~ and
from the point of view of Vermont's best
interests the Senator should be his own
successor. What is said as to the ad-
vantage, at this critical time in the ma
tons history, of a standing in legisa-
tive matters, especially DIS regards posi-
ton on important committees which 70
new Senator can hope to attain in his
first six years, is clearly put and un-

HEALTH TALKS
BY DR.. r. r. Daniels.
The Ever-Present Germ.

Germs, like the poor, we always
have with us: the good germ aud the
bad germ are always close by ready to
assist the body In some Of its pro-
cesses, or, as the case may be, to at
tack weakened organ, or part OF the
body, The benevolent germs are
most useful ia the body in assisting
digestion; the small Intestine is tcem-
ing with bacteria which help to break
up the food into materials to be used
by the various tissues.
The so-called disease producing
germs are ever ready to invade a
weakened organ or tissue, To grow,
multiply and often seriously damage
or even destroy, the invaded part.
However, the body has developed
high degree OF resistance against the
harmful germs. The various tissues
that are exposed are protected by a
covering of germ-proof skin, or mu
cous membrane, the latter often
bathed by secretions which are germ
icldes; even the blood itself has a
more or less germicidal action. Ii it
were not for these and many other
ways by which the body protects it
self against germs, the human race
would have long ago become extinct.
Thus, it is only when an organ or
part of the body becomes weakened
by abuse, or damaged by accident,
that the germ is able to attack sue
cessfully.
So it Is impossible for us TO keep
away from harmful germs. We can,
however, avoid abuse or overwork If
any organ, and thus avoid weakening
it to the point where germs can
make successful attack. We can
keep our general resistance high by
avoiding over-fatlgue, exposure, and
by getting sufficient exercise and
fLesh air. We can also resist the
germs by eating carefully; overcrowd-
ing the digestion and eating foods
that are hard to digest, not only
overwork certain organs, but they fill
the body with waste materials that
lessen the resistance and open the
way, for germs. Coffee, tobacco and
alcohol are all favorable to germ
action, because they damage certain
organs, over-stimulate the body, and
lessen its natural disease resisting
power.

Rema kable Change.

In statistical survey of the
first six months of prohibition in
Arizona, January to July I, 1915,
Thomas X Marshall shows the
marked improvements in all
phases Of state lite. Crime, in
counties where saloons existed
during 1914, fell off 81. 8 per cent
when the saloons were closed.
This insured a saving to taxpayers
of S5o,773 90 in decreased cost of
arrests and prosecutions. Even
more striking are the figures for
the cities and towns. With
totardecrease of 2,4o3, or SO. per
cent, i'll the number of arrests for
the first six months of 1915 as
compared with the same months
OF 1914, the saving amounts to
SIS, This almost offsets
the entire amount of liquor license
revenue, 500, 9o8, which was sur
rendered by the cities of the state.
The record ofthe city of Phoenix
is perhaps the most remarkable of
any. Over S., 900, 900 increase in
taxable wealth, decrease in tax
rate and about $40, 900 less in cost
of city government for six months,
is credited to the capital city of
Arizona for the first half of 1914.
The decrease in arrests for drunk
enness for the first six months of
1915 Peshaps surpasses that of
any city of its size in the United
States. The number of arrests for
1914 was 1910 and for 1915 was
IS The per capita cost of arrests
for 1914 was &c So. With I,125
fewer arrests for the six months of
1915 for this cause there was
decreased cost OF 81, $40 IS to the
city.
Savings banks accounts in the
state increased nearly $500, 900 the
first six months, and the deposits
of all banks increased nearly 3d.
900, 900 up to September, 1915.
The children of the state are
feeling the benefit of prohibition.
There were for the first six months
of 1915 1000 more children in
school than for the same period
of 1914. The registration at the
state university also shows an
increase of So per cent over the
registration for 1914

The NATION is SHOCKING
LY UNPREPARED.

1t Is apparent that we are
shockingly unprepared. There
is no room for controversy on
this point since the object les
son on the Mexican border. All
our available regular troops
Qess, believe, than 100000 are

have been deemed insufficient
the entire National Guard has
been ordered out; that is, we
are summoning practically all
our movable military forces In
order to prevent bandit incur.
sions. In view of the warnings
OF the past three years, 1t Is
inexcusable that we should find
ourselves in this plight. For
our faithful guardsmen, who
with fine patriotism responded
to this call and are bearing this
burden, l have Iothing but
praise. But / think 1t little
short of absurd that we should
be compelled to call men from
their shops, their factories, their
offices and their professions for
such purpose. This, however
Is not all. The units of the Ma
ttonal Guard were at peace
strength, which was only about
one-half the required strength.
1t was necessary to bring in
recruits, for the most part raw
and unframed. Only a small
percentage of the regiments re-
cruited up to war strength will
have had even a years training
in the National Guard, which at
the maximum means one hun
dred hours of military drill, and,
on the average, means much
less. Men fresh from their
peaceful employments and ply
sically unprepared have been
hurried to the border for actual
service. They were without
proper equipment; without,
necessary supplies; suitable
conditions of transportation
were not provided. Men with
dependent families were sent:
and conditions which should
have been well known were dis
covered after the event. And
yet the exigency, comparatively
speaking, was not avery grave
one. 1t involved nothing that
could not readily have been fore
seen during the past three years
of disturbance. and required
only a modest talent for organ
ization. That this Administra-
ton while pursuing its course
In Mexico should have permitted
such conditions to exist is al
most incredible.-From Mr..
Hughes speech Of acceptance.

The KOzy Changes
Its Show Nights.

Dresden's popular movie, the
Kozy, Lester McCuan, manager,
announces that beginning at once,
the Thursday night show will be
changed to Friday night. This
is done for the benefit of the
school children, who are not per-
mitted to go to the show on study
nights, and to cooperate with Mr.
Finch In his efforts to give Dres-
den a good school.
The Kozy has proven wonder
full success in Dresden. There
are several underlying reasons
for this, principal among which
is the good bill presented each
night at the movie, None but
frst-class shows have ever been
shown here, and none but moral
ones. These would not have made
a success had they not been
handled in the proper way. But
Lester has put pep in his place
of amusement. Every nice little
wrinkle that would add to the
comfort and pleasure of his pat
rons has been afforded. Reason
able publicity of the right kind
has been given the show, and at
times we have seen the house
overAowing at both performances.
Dresden has gained some good
advertising through her splendid
movie, for visitors have gone out
from this town telling Of our up
to.date amusement place, which
ranks right up to the front. We
are glad to note the increasing
number who attend from the

but there is just this much

We can't do it unless a greater

Chimpanzee Family
To be at the Fair.

Among the most interesting
and attractive exhibits in America
is the famous Balboa family of
Afro.Congo chimpanzees. This
family consists of the father and
two adult females, each female
being the mother of a baby chin
panzee. The term quadrumama
is applied to this particular branch
of the monkey family by reason of
the fact that all its four limbs
terminate with a hand that is
employed with the same ready
facility as that of a human. 1t is
the most comprehensive group of
rare subjects in natural history
ever placed on exhibition; especial
ly is its interest enhanced by the
presence OF the infant chimpanzees.
which have rarely if ever been
seen in this country. The care Of
the babies by their mothers, their
sports, pastimes and domestic
habits are subjects of educational
value to those who have never had
an opportunity to observe from
actual life the customs of strange
creatures. A liberal space has
been reserved at the Weakley
County Fair for the chimpanzee
family and doubtless many thous.
ands will witness the amusing
antics of these aliens from the
far.off Congo.
