VERMONT SENTIMENT WELL RE
- ELECTED.

There is no doubt that the voice of
Vermont, as given expression at the war
convention in Rutland, was right in say
ing that Senator LaFollette has given
aid and comfort to the enemy, to our
enemy, Germany. 1t is such an attitude
as his taken by persons high in public
Office that has caused the government in
Berlin to believe that the United States
was divided in its determination to wage
war now that war has been declared,
that when the supreme test came the
anti-war party would prevent the active
participation Of the United States in the
war. LaFollette has been opposed to
about every large movement prepared by
the government for the furtherance of
the war plans and he has gone outside
of the walls of Congress to announ to
the world that the United States was a
house divided against itself, thereby Civ
ing the impression that the nation could
not WELD its full strength in behalf of
the purposes held by the entente allies.
If that attitude has not tended to give
aid and comfort to our enemy then moth
ing which Americans could do would
have such result We believe, there.
fore, that Vermont as a whole stands
back of the sentiment as unofficially ex-
mont people in Rutland last week.

A PROCLAMATION.

Fire in war time commands our
special attention. Fire destroys
property in all stages of develop
ment from natural resources to
finished products. 1t consumes
foodstuffs and equipment neces-
sary for our civilian population
and absolutely essential for our
fighting forces. In the destruction
of factories fire deprives work
men of their usual labor and stops
or delays the increased production
required by war.
Fire is a preyentsble menace;

vent fire. Mayors, selectmen, fire

Why wouldn't this be good for the churches in towr
to adopt during the ca On Sunday after

The plan could be carried by having the young

Is really the prettlest of the Sabbath day.
If each church only bucket coal Sunday and

twenty five buckets a month and so on.
This appear to be simple matter to but it is
