Charles II. Darling

The Barre Times puts it rather pert
ly but pertinently thus:
Charles H. Darling OF Bur-
lington has taken his place
on quiet sector of the politi-
cal front in Vermont ready
for intensive training.
To some observers it has seemed as
though Judge Darling had rather
specialized in the art of camoufage
in advancing to the position which he
undoubtedly holds. He is veteran
campaigner and camouiiage has been
called pussyfooting before now, so il
is only an old set OF tactics under a
new name.
1t is fair, however, to assume that
The Herald's observation balloon has
attracted sufficient fire so that the
position of some of the Judges bat
teries may be set down as fixed.
Their direction of fire and effective
hits will be marked with some inter
est by political observers.

A little love, little kiss.
1t seldom ever comes amiss.
It's good to eat as bread and 'lasses,
And often relished by the masses.
Don't be mussy when you buss her.
Help her kalsomine her face.
If you stay too late to frolic,
You may die of painters collie.
Odell social club to meet
P. T.'s see there--anything to fill the
week.
Some are grooming, some are incoming
Some are spooning on the street.
If its good for young, its good for old
Don't leave the old toads in the cold.
There's Omar. Bill, and Jack, ant
Frank,
Art, and Jim, and the Surface Crank,
Charley and Bart are lonely, too.
Stub and Boobins would take few.
Hens will chirp as we'll as chickens,
Some would like to raise the dickens.
Leave the baby with the cat.
Let him squsll. let him blat.
American homes are not in the race
Just kind of stopping place.
Better halt, this social stuff
Before we have to h0ller enough.

AUTO TRUCK HITS STORE
FRONT; LITTLE DAMAGE

Otto Setter, driving Emil Buenger's
delivery car last Friday afternoon, was
unable to make short enough turn,
when rounding the corner from South
First to Minnesota street, and ran head
on into the store of Mrs. G. F. Dongus.
Aside from giving Mr.. Setter and the
several by-standers a real scare, dis
locating several brick in the store front
and slightly demoralizing the automobile,
little damage was done. The slippery
condition OF the pavement is said tc
have been the cause for the accident
However, Mr.. Setter feels that he got of
easy, as the accident might have beer
much more serious.
