Peace At This Time

Washington, Aug. 6.-President
Wilson, in a long conference today
with Senator Lewis, the Democratic
Whip, urged haste in the final enact
ment Of the food control bill and reve-
nue. bill, and is understood to have
indicated he does not consider the
present the time for discussion of
peace negotiations with Germany.
Senator Lewis would not discuss the

was believed the President indicated
that he did not consider Germany's
recent peace feelers to be genuine

LANDED IN FRANCE.

America is glad that her boys are in
France,
Somewhere" it is true, but they're
landed;
Amid cheers of their allies, who well
come them hence,
To task that their rights long de-
manded.
No drum beat the call, nor a bugle
gave warning,
That the last word to loved ones
was spoken;
But silent and quick from their quar-
tiers that morning,
They marched to the ships and the
ocean.
Landed in France, beside of old Eng
land,
Where democracy was first given
birth;
Beside of our sister, France, loved for
her stand.
That autocracy be thrust from the
earth.
Great Russia, arising, endowed by the
spirit,
and died;

| ''The rights of Free Men should not
be denied
We shall hear from our boys, in some

AS their sires at Gettysburg show

Or our cousins at dawn on that proud
! 'Vimy Ridge"
Put the Foemen to rout and te
shame.
We may hear the dread news that oul
i loved ones fell,
And we fancy the sorrows tina
bring:
From the glories of triumph. you

Wins Prize for Fine Window Display

The Bundy & Amey snoe store, OF
this city, has just been advised that
the fine window display of DR.. Scholl's
Foot Comfort Devices, which many
readers will remember seeing in the
window of that store during Foot
Comfort Week June 18th to 23rdO
was awarded a valuable prize by the
judges of the Scholl Window Trim
ming Contest.
This can only be appreciated to the
full when it is considered that this
Foot Comfort Week was an event
which covered the entire United
States and Cana da, and that this prize
was won in competition with the
thousands of window displays which
were entered in the contest. Almost
every shoe dealer on the continent
who gives DR.. Scholl's Foot Comfort
Service to his customers was in the
contest, and the number of such deal
ers runs into many thousands.

BRADSTREET'S VERMONT
WEEKLY TRADE REPORT

Burlington, Aug. 6.-Bradstreet's
Vermont Office reports the main fea-
lures of the weeks reports comprise
steady and insistant demand for all
kinds of labor, both for the shops and
on the farm. With harvesting crowd
ing close on the heels of the hay crop,
which crop will pass all previous rec
ords, the demand for farm labor is
heavy Reports from the granite Sec
ton indicate the volume of business
in the hands of the manufacturers is
large and demand for stone cutters is
apparent. This applies to monu-
mental line and quarries supplying
stone for that purpose. Demand for
cutting tools and equipment is heavy
No improvement is apparent among
the building stone trade, which has
experienced a much larger period of
quietness than has heretofore been
known. Manufacturers of paper state
there has been no improvement in de-
mand for general lines, but that for
news print is an active demand.
Waxed paper business shows up we'll
State tanneries report export leather
business is as large as ever, but do
nestle demand is slow. There is not
much change in conditions surround
ing the honey business over what was
noted a few weeks ago. Price for
extracted honey is still unsettled. The
demand for milk and cream separa-
tors is larger than it was a year ago,
and there is an optimistic feeling re-
garding further improvement in this
line. Continued hot weather of the
past week has made it difficult to keep
volume of business up to standard.
