Thursday, February 8, 1917.

Members OF Che Bennington section
of the Green Mountain club have all
along carried the impression in their
minds that they had the best organi.
zation in the state. but have been a
little bashful about giving expression
to that impression. At Wednesday
evenings meeting, however, they
were told in so many words that they
have put every other section in the
state in the"also ran" class. They
were told that they had the largest
membership and that their trail was
the best and the information came
from high official sources" as the
war correspondents write from Flu
rope. The Bennington section Of the
club has been particularly fortunate
in the men and women who have SER
we'd as officials. They have not only
showed an unbounded enthusiasm but
they have conducted the affairs of the
club with rare Judgment. Because of
their willingness to bear the burden
they have made little money go a
long way and have provided the heal
thiest enjoyment in the world for all
of us who wished to join In 1t.

some people are SO ready to declare,
but it is an institution that has been
badly crippled by lack of funds. In
trying to live within its income il has
no doubt had some employees who
were not fiji to be trusted in charge OF
the patients and that there have been
abuses and serious cnes is hardly to
be doubted. All asylums have this
matter to contend with and it will be
remembered that the state hospital
at Waterbury suffered from similar
charges o few years ago. Attendants
who are cruel to patients are dis
charged as soon as found cut but
often the damage is done before dis
covery is made. Several years ago
the editor of The Banner while visit
ing the Brattleboro retreat took the
trouble to inquire OF dozen or more
of the nurses and attendants and
found that practically all of them had
been there but short time and that
some of them with very limited ex-
perience and practically unknown to
the management had been placed in
charge of rooms and wards with
ample opportunity to do harm and fire.
quently in charge of more patients
than they could properly look after.
The proposed investigation should be
made and we believe it should result
IN closer supervision OF employees
and the spending Of more money to
insure at all times plenty of trust
worthy and competent attendants

BANKS CLOSE WHEN
 LEVINE ASKS MILLION

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22. - Nico- lai Lenine caused the banks of Petro. grad to close their doors. Lenine, the moment he appeared to be in power, presented his personal check for $5O,- OOO,0OQ and every bank in the Rus sian capital at once closed its doors.
 This news came to Washington from the American Legation in Stock holm, and it is presumed in Washing ton that Lenine, as head of the Bol- shevih government, attempted to get possession of this vast sum, the banks however, refusing to honor the check prefering to stop business.
