IT'S A FLAG STATION ONLY

Altho trains are stopping at the
Ocala. union station, it is a flag sta
ton only, and will probably be moth
ing more for some weeks. A great
deal of work remains to be done,
probably as much as the contractor
can handle in month.
The trains stop here and will take
on or put off passengers, but they are
yet making their regular stops ! and
selling tickets at the old stations.

The depreciation on motor vehicles is
taken as a matter of course because me-
chanical parts wear out quite rapidly

horse flesh is not considered to be nearly
as rapid because of the fact that new it's.
sues and the body of the animal is main
tanned, barring, of course, the advance of
age. Thus a horse should be worth as
much for all practicable purposes for a
large number of years. Therefore, it
may occasion considerable surprise that
pair of fire department horses, which
were used in the Brattleboro municipal
service for four years and for which the
municipality paid $500 four years ago.
were recently sold for only 1925. 1t is to
be assumed that fire department horses
are given the best of care and first class
feeding and are kept from breaking down
most carefully. 1t is to be presumed,
too, that service in fire department
does not unfit horses for ordinary draft

tricity is put down under the designation
of partly preventable causes" it is the
duty of every community to take steps
that will have a tendency to eliminate
that as one of the chief causes of fire
loss. This can only be done by system
of careful inspection of wiring for cleo
trio lights or power. Defective wiring,
jobs done by incompetent or careless
workmen, must be done away with If
we are to keep down this annual sacri-
flee to the heap of ruins. Perhaps a good
way to eliminate these defective jobs
would be for the state to impose a strict
requirement on the licensing of anyone

Some OF the school children of the
town have been wondering when they
were going to receive the cash prizes
which were to be given as result OF the
boys and girls fair which was held last
| fall. Owing to the fact that each school
had separate exhibits, there was a sur
prising number OF first prizes. After all
expenses were paid and the grand prize
of $3.50 given to the south hill school
for the best school exhibit, there re-
manned 81, which, if divided among the
large number of first prize winners,
would only amount to few cents each.
SO it was decided to hold this money
and put with it $40 that has been
pledged by Mrs. c. II. Beckett and any
other funds which may become available
and thus be able to give some really
worth while prizes next year Plans for
the next school fair will be given out in

Senator Lewis is Numerically opposed

The settled policy has been one of pacifi

have no effect on the belligerents, what
ever effect it may have on the mental at

fooled into the belief that the United

situation as regards the United States is
any more serious than it was when the
Lusitania was sunk. The people of this

If the Vermont legislators do not in
each case get just the committee appoint
ments they were hoping for, let them
bear in mind that there is a fixed limita-
tion to the positions and that those who
drew up the appointments were not in a
position to satisfy every desire because
of lack of information about all the leg
islators. However, the lawmakers will
have done their duty if they apply them
selves assiduously to the special work to
which they are chosen. Let there be no
unnecessary grumbling over placements.
