several liye.wiie ideas originated by
the Board CT Trade since its rehabli'

tie to boost the Barre granite publicity
campaign and following the idea
through to its logical conclusion
every boost Tor the home product is an
incentive for more business in sundry

That Is the stand taken by the
Board of Trade and In short time II
Is hoped that everyone who uses bust

the printer insert the words, Barre

Insertion does not conflict with matter
printed in the letter head, but occu

day, it is rcckoned business letters

A remarkable instance in point was

where the deviation from the vertical
is so great that in mapping the island

as shown IN the older maps, had each

One OF the features of the primary
law OF which the friends of the measure
are hopeful will be the state conyen-
ton to be held at Burlington, Sept, %
to draft the Republican state platform
In years past the platform has been
prepared and adopted by the delegates
to the state convention. Then when
thelegislature assembled the members
and state officers have many times de-
clined to Fay much attention to plat
form pledges. Under the new law the
platform is made by the candidates, in
GLIDING those for state and congress
ional Offices, state senators and town
representatives. The theory is that
il these gentlemen write the platform
they ought to be willing to stand on it.
