STATE FAIR MAKING READY,

White River Junction, July Is, While
much has already taken place in plan
ming the details of the Vermont State
Fair to be held here September II, 10,
IA, and Is, the real activity of prepare
ton is now under way in the office of
Secretary Davis.
Last year, owing to the quarantine on
shipping cattle from other States into
Vermont, the cattle exhibit was con
fined to the New England States. This
condition does not apply this year and
the State Fair commission again makes
competition open to the country. So
large are the entries already made, it
may be stated eight weeks before the
dates of the fair, that the cattle exhibit
will tax the full capacity of the exhibit
ton stalls. A greaternumber of States
will be represented than at any previ-
Gus State fair.
A change of policy will take place in
conducting the trotting events. The
stake races have been reduced to two
and it is believed that this change will
result in better races and a greater
number of entries.
A specially designed art hanger has
been prepared as part of the adver-
Using. 1t will be ready for distrbu-
ton in few days.

LET THE SONG BIRDS SING,
81, Albans Messenger.


Fines have been imposed recently
IN various parts of the State on men
for shooting song birds, 1t cost ST,
Johnsbury man Sl5 for shooting birds
last week, The English sparrow, to
be sure, is a sort of nuisance because
of an agressiyeness that drives of
more desirable birds, particularly Of
the song bird kind, Vermont Is rich
in bird melody, particularly in the
early morning during the summer
months, and it is a crime for man or
boy to kill them. II Is claimed that
birds do much good and are really
valuable in monetary sense for des'
troying damaging insects and bugs.
The little damage the robin does to
the strawberry patch is no comparison
to the good he performs,
This paper fully agrees with The
Barre Times on this subject as ex-
pressed in the forceful sentiments fol-
lowing "The shooting Of song birds
is one Of the most reprehensible things
among the smaller acts Of man, and
we are glad to note that offenders
against reason and against the law
of the State are being brought to JUS
tice for their acts = We are glad
to read now and then that some YER
mont judges have given a good sharp
warning in the shape Of stiff fine,
with all the costs that can be piled on,
Let there be more prosecutions for
this offence.
That birds love the companonship
of human beings is evident in the vastly
greater number of song birds and
birds pleasing to the eye to be found
in all settlements and in the cities as
in comparison to the woods. Take the
mountain forest ranges in Vermont
and the dense wooded tracts in Canada,
where one would naturally expect to
see bird on every bush, there is a
surprising lack of bird life. This is
a surprise and disappointment to any
one fond of birds. Anyone who has
roughed it in the Canadian woods
knows this to be so. The Canadian
Jay, or moose bird, is encountered &C.
casionally, robins that have the APP
pearance of having strayed from
home, and the cedar wax wing, and a
few other small birds in limited num-
bers are found, and their absence
gives feeling of something lacking.
But the birds are found in numbers
where people live because they are
fond of men and women and boys and
girls, and it is a shame for anyone
wantonly to kill or even brighten them,
Cultivate their friendship and let them
sing their songs of gladness and cheer.

RURAL CHURCHES.
Brattleboro Reformer.


Five hundred rural churches have
been abandoned in-Kansas for the rea-
son that motor cars can so readily bring
people into community centers. A map
of Kansas of ten years ago shows al
most 200 more postofiices listed than
at the present time. Along with the
disappearance Of the postoffice, by rea-
son Of the rural mail routes, the coun-
try store, the country church and finally
the town itself have disappeared.
There are almost 10000 motor cars in
Kansas. Slightly more than 60 per cent
of these cars are owned by farmers and
this has extended the social activities
of the rural population. The farmers
have disposed of their buggies and car
riages and now, with their families in
motor car on Sunday morning, drive
10 or Is miles to Sunday school and
church services with greater ease and
less time than they could have driven
five miles with horse and carriage.
The great increase in the number Of
young people attending the schools and
colleges have brought desire for bet
ter sermons and more social life which
the motor car makes possible.

A FULL HOUSE" ASSURED,
Burlington Free Press.

Nobody in Vermont is any longer
worrying over the prospect of lack OF
attendance at the direct primaries in
September, two months hence. On the
contrary some people are fearful that
the number of voters at the primary
boxes will be far larger than they would
like. In Burlington, for instance, we
have had large caucuses over a single
office like city representative, or State

Young farmer of Lincoln was killed

warnings of railroads and newspapers
alike, persistence in this practice is
tatamount to suicide.

FRIENDSHIP THAT RINGS TRUE
Thorough Understanding and
C,mplete Sympathy.

Some acquaintances will never ripen
into true friendship because the COM
mon bond Of union, the thorough un-
derstanding and the complete sym
pathy are lacking.
An acquaintance begun in child
hood viii ripen into friendship if the
children develop mutual interest in a
common cause of study or pleasure. II
dissimilar tastes and unlike impulses
develop the children will grow apart,
since each of us tends toward certain
centers Of association.
Money cannot buy us friends. 1t
often purchases apparent friendship.
but when the wealth goes that which
posed as friendship vanishes also.
Friendship must be distinguished
from that sentimental feeling which is
so common among young girls. This
ridiculous fascination, which ex-
presses itself in extravagant terms OF
endearment, is very tickle.
AS soon as it finds faults in one idol
it transfers its affection to another
Youth has yet to learn that perfection
in human nature does not exist. The
sensible man or woman does not set
up an ideal of friendship so high that
it must be shattered.
Friends influence us for good or
evil Unfortunately we can guide the
formation of our friendships only to a
very limited extent. either for our
selves or for our children.
Friendship springs up and grows
naturally; it cannot be planted at will
Foolish friendships are often formed
in youth. 1t is useless to talk against
them, since young people always re-
sent criticism of their friends. We
must simply tolerate them and trust
to the awakening of common sense to
prove all frivolous friendships false

having been planned to ply between

route the distance between the two
points is more than 500 miles. 1t ID
expected that it will be covered at an
average speed of nearly forty miles
an hour. Tests were recently made
on the Hudson river, near New York,
with an oddly designed craft which
has been built especially for this serv-
ice. 1t is broad.beamed glider,
equipped with high-power motor, and
driven by two aerial propellers mount
ed at the stern. II is capable of carry
ing number OF passengers, and when
loaded draws only five inches of wa
ter. While travelling at its maximum
speed. however, the sled requires only
one inch Of water, for II skins along
barely cutting the surface. It's slight
draft is made necessary by the shall
Iowness Of the river on which 1t is to
operate.
