STATE AUDITOR.
Rutland News,

1t has been suggested that aspir-
ants for the office of State auditor,
to succeed Hon. Horace f. Graham,
who will unquestionably be Yer
mont's next governor largely for the
reason that he has been Vermonts
best auditor of accounts, faithful to
the last degree, should tell the people
of their qualifications for the position.
The suggestion is pertinent, This
position is purely one of business, and
its incumbent should be distinctively a
business man, rather than politician,
or even a faithful party man.
The authorship primarily is a posi-
ton to which the assistant, familiar
with the duties of the office, if he is
of large enough calbre and of neces-
sary vigor of health, should naturally
and logically be promoted. Failing
this, some other man of pronounced
qualifications for and training in this
kind of work should be selected. If he
is acquainted with the routine duties OF
the auditors office, all the better.
Let it be emphasized, however,
that the official should be selected on
his merits as a business man, careful,
conservative competent, energetic and
resourceful, rather than upon his ac-
quaintance, his good fellowship or mix
ing qualities, his regularity as repub-
Iican and his attendance upon the con-
ventions.

GOOD AND BAD HAWKS.
Bennington Banner.

We hope everybody in Bennington
read DR.. Ross article in The Banner
on the economic value of birds. There
are some things there that every per-
son interested in growing crops ought
to know. One of these statements is
that farmer better shoot his best cow
than the slow sailing hawks that are
so common in this part of the country.
There are only two hawks that are
chicken catchers. These are the Cooper
hawk and the Sharp Shin hawk. Both
of these are small, swift hawks and not
often killed. The kind that gets killed
are the big varieties that sail around
and do more good than harm. The
large Red Shouldered hawk does some
times catch chickens but doesn't make
a business of it and kills so many rats,
mice and other vermin that he should
be spared even if he does once in a
while get away with a chicken.

had an intense adherence for shams,
a hatred for hypocrisy, a distaste for
conventions and customs, and a devo-
ton to his friends, and loyalty to his
school that amounted to almost pas
sion, An expert at the telegraph key,
an old,tim with "stick" and Cease, ="
an artist with pencil and brush, he
could charm bunch of fellows by his
naive humor or touch the deeper feel
ings by his pathetic defence of his
chosen ideas and ideals, His devotion
to his wife, whom he there found, was
of the kind that grew with the pas
sage of the years, and his loyalty IA
truth and righteousness, as he saw
them, never failed or faltered. Here is
flower for wreath to his memory

ETHAN ALIENS SIGNATURE.

In going over the files to make a
complete index the probate office in
Rutland has discovered a well pre-
served document which bears the very
legible signature Of Ethan Allen. The
paper is a bond in connection with the
estate of Hebert Allen of Poultney,
brother of the patriot. Ethan Allen
was the surety and Ira Allen the admin
istrator, the latter's signature being on
the paper too. There is also an inven-
tory of Heber Aliens estate which is of
interest in that it enumerates all of the
small articles owned by the deceased
even to collar buttons, socks, handker-
chiefs and the like.

GREATER VERMONT ASSOClA-
TON ANNUAL MEETING.

The annual meeting of the Greater
Vermont association, to be held at
Montpelier on July II and 10, promises
to be a worthy part of the celebration
of Vermont's anniversary year, 1916
There will be meeting in the Hall OF
Representatives in the State capitol on
the afternoon of July 18th. Among the
speakers will be John Barrett, director
general of the Pan American Congress-;

railroad; and Major General Wood of
the United States army.
This meeting will be followed by a.
dinner in the city hall of Montpelier.
The POSTMASTER will be Mr.. George
Harvey, editor of the North American
Review. One of the after dinner
speakers will be Judge w. P. Stafford
of the Supreme Court of the District OF
Columbia, who will speak on the
spirit of Vermont. h."
The enthusiastic interest of these two
Vermonters is a good augury for the
character of the occasion. In spite of
difficulties attendant on meeting this en-
gagement, Mr.. Harvey writes: 81 will
make it somehow, though the heavens
fall" and Judge Stafford, '"May my
right hand forget her cunning, and
my tongue cleave to the roof of my
mouth, if forget the Spirit of YER
mont. -"
Thursday, July 18th, will be devoted
to a conference on organization work
and board of trade problems under the
leadership of Lucius E. Wilson, an or
ganizer of national reputation, whose
home is now in East Dorset, Vermont.
Officers and commitment of Vermont
organizations, and all members inter
ested in organization work should at
tend every session of this conference
The influence of these meetings and
conferences will be felt for many years
to come.

BETHEL MILL BURNS.

The steam mill of the Ryther & Purdy
Lumber company at Bethel was de-
stroyed by fire Friday. The loss is
from $4,000 to $4,000. About $4,000
feet of lumber piled near the mill were
burned. The engine, boiler and some
other machinery were not seriously
damaged, it is hoped. There was no in
surance on any of the property. About
Is men are thrown out of employment
by the fire. The company had been
operating a year or more at that place
and the chances are that the mill will
not be rebuilt.

Brattleboro Phoenix,

The late Horace W, Bailey, United
States marshall of Vermont several
years, was lover of the history, ira
ditions and literature Of the State, He
worked for years gathering a collec-
ton Of hundreds of volumes Of Yer
mont books and pamphlets. The
Phoenix suggested some time ago that
some wealthy Vermont man who
wished to do something for the State
of permanent value should buy this
collection intact. 1t is good news to
know that several individuals joined in
this good work and that the Bailey
library has become the property of
Middlebury College, where it will be
available for the use of any person in
terested in historical research.

FIRE WARNING.
Brattleboro Phoenix

These are the days when tn great
outdoor is calling. After long and
tedious winter it is pleasure to roam
over the hill and bask in the glorious
sunshine. 1t is also time when
serious forest fires are started from a
match carelessly thrown aside, or
from a cigar butt dropped into pile OF
leaves. 1t is duty for every person
who enjoys the outdoor life at this
period of the year to use every pre-
caution against starting blaze that
famed by the wind may despoil the
scenery and cause incalcuable damage.

PREPAREDNESS IN EDUCATION
Rutland News.

Rutland news,
The address of President John M.
Thomas of Middlebury college be-
fore the lawyers of Rutland county
at their banquet in this city on
Thursday evening was both profound
and stirring. 1t made an impression
on his auditors that cannot fail to be
lasting
The educator spoke of the vital
necessity in this country of prepared
ness. not of a militaristic character,
but of a more important and far
reaching kind, that of education.
He called attention significantly to the
superior qualifications required of the
students in English and German uni
versities. The education of young men
of these foreign countries is more eX-
act and thorough than is required of the
students of American institutions OF
learning. This whole spirit of thorough
ness prevades those peoples.
The United States, in facing the
new and greater requirements fol-
lowing the cataclysm in Europe, will
require men of larger mould than this
country has been producing. The ex-
gencies will demand giants, intel
lectually.
President Thomas sounds the clarion
call, not to arms, but efficiency, in

STAY IN VERMONT,

The Rutland News processes the
belief that Vermont's young men who
have been lured by high wages in
munitions factories in various parts
of the United States will be glad enough
to return to the joys of living in Yer
mont Just as soon as the work begins
to grind on them or the factories are
forced to close because of the ending of
the war. We trust the contemporary
is right in its stated belief.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be
Cured

by ocalapplications,a las they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There Is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inhamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
ly closed, deafness is the result. Unless
the inflammation can be reduced and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever. Many
cases of deafness are caused by catarrh,
which is an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Cure
acts thru the blood on the mucous sur
faces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrhal Deafness that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.
