Following the Communicating OF
oil boats by the government, ships
which formerly came tc this port are
now used elsewhere to meet the de-
mand for them on the coast. This
means that Honolulu cannot get all
the crude oil that it wants, although
there is still plenty of the product In
the mainland markets. .. ,
H. B. Weller, district sales man
ager of the Union Oil Company in
Honolulu, stated this morning that It
was q lack of transportation facilities
and not a lack of oil that was cutting
off Honolulu's supply.
Il have been advised recently not
to sell except on contract" said
Weller this morning. ",=
I'VE will be able to supply that
oil which is necessary for the exist
ence of the community, but the sup.
ply for new projects will be almost
cut off. The contracts with bakeries
and with power plants will be filled
as usual, but an attempt to get crude
Oil for a road, for instance, might not
be successful. .. i
Since our entrance into the war
there has been evidence that there
would be decrease in the Oil sup
ply, and recently we received orders
to conserve our supply. One OF our
biggest ships, the Los Angeles, whose

day, July %.
This morning A. NJ. NOVEL;, secre.

he said, during which year S.25 cents
was reached, then to 1884, during
which year and all previous years,

6.977."
Although today's price breaks all
records for % years, 1t does not come
anywhere near Civil war time prices.

of 1863-64 the average price of raw
sugar for the whole year was 1918

How Mt. Anthony Got Its Name

The request for information as TO
how Mt. Anthony got its name has
been answered. Some people have
thought that it was given in honor
of Gen. Anthony Wayne, but this is
practically disproved by the fact
that the mountain was called Mt.
Anthony long before Mad Anthony"
gained his fame. DR.. w. B. Walker
of Pleasant street furnishes the fol-
lowing explanation which seems au-
thenic:
Mount Anthony derives its name
from st. Anthony of Padua CA. D.
1920. The French traders from AL
bany, (St. Ange) used the great
highway from Eagle Bridge north
ward to Canada. A Jesuit priest
with Jean Alfonsces of Albany ac-
companying one of these trading
parties stopped at the junction of
the Walloomsac and Hoosac rivers,
where the big medicine man Of the
Hoosac pointed out to him the sacred
swastika or sign for warding off
evil, viz, the Tau Cross (T) formed
by the junction of the two great riv-
ers. The traders erected a stockade
or fort and in 1880 built small
shrine which the priest dedicated to
the great missionary follower of St.
Francis, ]. Antoine, or Anthony of
Padua, and called the northern
stream St. Croix, or Holy Cross(now
the Walloomsac). Looking up to
the grand old mountain under whose
protection the little chapel seemed
to rest he named it st. Antoine or
d emily hony. The early settlers evil
st. Antdid not care much for saint

Senator Dillingham; has been ap-
pointed as a member of the Senate
committee to investigate the St.
Paul speech of Senator LaFollette.
Senator Dillingham; has a wide ex-
perience as an investigator and like
the other members of the Vermont
delegation in Congress is noted for
his fair mind and thorough search
for facts. This appointment is an
honor to Senator Dillingham; and to
Vermont.
The grocers in this country employ
10O,000 men-young men-as many
horses and trucks to deliver home
groceries. This is quite an army ia
ken as a whole. There is campaign
started to reduce this number by
making only three deliveries a week.
Many western cities are putting in
force this work and greatly decreas-
ing the cost of food products and
turning an army of young men into
other avenues of business greatly
needed by war conditions today.
The average cost of delivery to gro
GERS of this country is about three
per cent of their net sales. This
must be added to the price of the
goods. Millions could be saved
yearly if the housewives did more of
their buying themselves and ordered
but once a week for delivery. The
Government recommended a fixed
number of deliveries a day. To
make this work a success the women
must cooperate. The war needs not
only demand this economy but COM
nonsense and loyalty sh ould prompt
us to correct this so far as is possible.
This surely is up to the American
women.

A Ford Tractor.

There are many instances where
a Ford car has been applied to use
full purposes, as trucks, tractors, etc.
There is a good working illustration
of this in town where a Ford was
made into a tractor by connecting
tractor wheels to the power. This
car is working every day hauling
logs to the bobbin mill of Hobson &
Colby and easily hauls 1000 feet of
logs per day.
The Fords are soldshere by Fred
Paquette and this car was fitted un.
der his direction forItractor,purposes
and proves a practical and economi'
cal machine to haul logs.

a short musical program followed by
promenading and games. The proceeds
are to give our basketball team a good

places. l. P. Fl. S. expects to put up one
of the best teams in the state.

The Second Liberty Loan has
started off we'll but it is a big job to
raise from 3 to 5 billion dollars in
four weeks. New England's allot-
ment is $500,000,000. The allotment
for Burlington is 81, $50, 900, for Es-
sex $4,000. The first Liberty
Loan is selling above par, and these
bonds primarily taken to aid the
government and as an act of loyalty,
are gilt-edge investments. If they
were not, they should be promptly
met, for the world is watching
America, and her enemies are trying
every way to belittle our effort and
the real needful part this country is
taking in the great world war. Buy
a bond, buy it today!
Many Vermont boys are in France
or on the ocean speeding to join
their brothers on the battlefields of
Europe. A new era had dawned
upon this country-we are marching
into the great war for the freedom
of the world. That sounds we'll land
while it is the great purpose of this
war, we believe that back of it, held
unfinching in the heart of every
boy who follows the Stars and
Stripes is the proud, manly purpose
to show to the world that America
cannot be called a coward. 1t is
nicely expressed by a soldier who
with his company was leaving for
France, and during a public demon
stration was told by speaker they
were going to tight for worldwide
democracy. "No sir" the soldier
replied, 1--WE are going to lick the
son-of-a-gun who said we 4 were
afraid to fight" And Vermonters
will be in the front rank.

There is some of the governmental
machinery that needs adjustment or
the members of the Vermont Nation
al Guard would have received their
pay for the two months now due.
We are not knocking, but someone
has Numbered and Vermonters are
insistent that this be righted and not
permitted to occur again. The boys
may not need the money but it
makes record Vermonters will look
back upon with regret. Our state
government should get the Guards
payrolIs even, as the Bennington
Evenining Banner says, IF they
have to send officials to France to
get it.

The Kaiscr's offer of SIS to the
first German in his army who cap
tured ian American soldier was a
strong inducement for it meant a
sum equal to a German soldiers pay
for three years. America pays her
privates $33 a month, France $3.50.
The Russian private gets 80 cents a
month, 1.-THE Austrian-Hungarian
troops two -and-a-half cents a day.
Germany has a wage scale beginning
at $1.65, Japan pays her soldiers at
home So a year, Turkey $11 a year.
These countries do not value the
service of their subjects very highly.

Congressman Frank L. Greene has
an appointment on the House COM
mittee on Military affairs. This is an
important committee and Congress
man Greene is fitted by practical ex-
fence to cake an active part in this
committee work. This is another
recognition of Congressman Greene's
efficient service, and is marked proof
that Vermont's delegation is not only
keeping up the notable record of the
past but adding honor to the states
work in Congress.
