sOMETHTNG YOU Miss

Did you enjoy your Decoration Day
picnic? IL you packed a cold lunch
for your outing you probably missed
your usual cup of coffee, and that is
just the way people who are used to
drinking Grand Union coffee feel
when they have to get along with any
other kind, for they miss the rich
flavor. fragrant aroma and satisfying
strength which is found in the coffee
sold exclusively by the Grand Union
Tea Co., 20S North Second street. In
spite of its superior quality. the price
of this coffee is as low or lower than
is asked elsewhere fer good coffee.

THE SEAT OF WAR

A German organization at Middlebury
College is said to be laboring against
the growing intolerance of everything
German. Let the seat of war now be
transferred from Burlington to Middle
bury Burlington News.
So we have just got rid of Apple
man, and along comes Ruth,
The Deutscher Verein-a club of stu
dents of German at Middlebury College
recently passed resolution uphold
ing our President in this war, and with
the same breath the club proposed Ito
use its influence against the growing
intolerance of everything German, and
to strive to manifest strong discrimin-
ating spirit.
This club reelected as its president,
Ruth Alkaline Hesselgrave, charming,
energetic American girl who has been
moving in our midst for the past year
without the slightest suspicion on our
part that her dimpled smile has been
working all the while in the service of
the Kaiser! But now the worst is ex-
posed, and we wonder how Ruth could
so beguile US.
The Register has turned its secret
service agents loose to run this sensa-
ton to the ground. 1t set about to
trace Miss Hesselgrave's German an
cestry, and found it was American on
both sides for three generations back.
English on both sides for ten genera
tons back and we haven't been able to
get any further than that She is the
daughter of the Rev. Charles Everett
Hesselgrave, scholarly alumnus of the
college who besides being deep student
of literature is pastor of the Center
Congregational church at South Man
chester, Conn.,
Another moving force in the Deutscher
Verein is Professor Skilings, whom our
secret service agent learns is down
East Yankee-hailing from somewhere
around Eastport, Me-, "a notorious
German stronghold.
So much for personalities. What
is it among things German that the
Deutscher Verein would have US toll
crate? Poisoned courtplaster or sub
marines?
Probing into their program of meet
ings, we find that the last one was de-
voted to the study of Martin Luther,
whose teachings they would have us

A new idea in winter sports at Middle
bury College Ledby President Thomas
himself, and joined by some of the fac
ulty, members the proposition is that the
college students may spend their Christ
mas holidays to patriotic advantage
by chopping wood on Bread Loaf noun
tain.
There are some 25, 600 acres of forest
land owned by the college and there is
no doubt that if the boys will give Bread
Loaf clean Christmas shave we shall
have no further cause to worry about
our winters fuel supply.
To it, fellow patriots There is a lot
of historical precedent for welding the
axe-big men all the way from Glad
stone to Roosevelt have done it as a reg
ular exercise. And there was dear old
rail.splitting Lincoln.who had to.
President Thomas proposition ism a
fantastic one at all. A hundred men in
the woods if that many will get into
swing would accomplish wonders in
a weeks time. And they would have
a rollicking good time doing it. Why
not turn the circumstances of the pres
ent into an asset. Fuel is scarce. La
Dor is scarce. There is little college
man can do in hurried trip home for
the holiday. Right here on Bread Loaf
there's wood to cut and good wage
offered for those who do it,
To it then, and every man of you viii
be better for it, in pocket and health
and will have agreed-if good crowd
Joins that it was a fine outing.
Dartmouth College twenty years age
had its cold winters as one of its great
est handicaps. Its students were half.
afraid of the out-of- doors in winter,
aside from a little skating and shoeing.
Today Dartmouth is famous as the great
winter college. Its men take delight
in hardening themselves to the climate,
and by ski or shoe they traverse the
White Mountain regions every winter
and wind up with great winter carni-
val. Middlebury has just as good win
tiers as Dartmouth and even better
chance to enjoy it in some ways. Why
not begin with a little wood-chopping?
