Those of our readers who have been
interested in the numerous letters
which Roy Harris has written, for US
from Camp Devens will be disappointed
TO hear that with his recent promotion
to sergeant he feels that it will be i'm
possible for him to continue to write
for publication. Harris learns that one
other officer at the camp has been critl-
csed for writing some information
which should not have been divuged,
and though he himself has not been
asked to give up writing for publca-
ton he thinks it the safer course to
follow.
IL have enjoyed the work he says,
land have received many pleasing com
pliments from people who seemed to
enjoy the letters, ! have appreciated
the interest they have taken, but ] feel
it my duty not to write any more, w
The Register also desires to pay its
praise to Harris for his fine letters,
They have been full of enthusiasm for
his work, and have shown good judg-
ment on his part in not disclosing any
thing of military Importance, 1t must
agree with him that as things take
more final shape, it may be necessary
for the military authorities to be strict
in the matter of news writing from
camp.
The Register, however, will continue
to welcome letters from men in the SER
vice and will, as heretofore, use only
such parts of them as are deemed of
harmless interest. There is much that
may be written that is of no question
able danger to our military interests
and those who have letters from friends
or relatives in the service are urged to
let us look them over with a view of
publication of the more interesting
passages.

Tor my- examination classes are
formed at all the training stations and
on board ships, with special instructors
and the free use Of the necessary text
books.
Retiring from the service a chief
petty officer may enter the reserve
force, where he receives an annual
retainer. Should he be called into ac-
tive service he is then paid in sddi-
ton to his retainer the base pay OF the
regular navy for active duty, and IL
on recruiting duty he will receive 81
a day or $50 q month for subsistence.
Thus, If a man had retired after 20
years and was called back he could
draw $65 retainer, sos regular and
$50 subsistence. making total OF
$500, which is more than junior lieu
tenants pay and nearly equal to that

MILKRoOM IS A NECESSITY
Particularly Desirable In Warm
Weather and Should Be Screened
and Kept Clean.

A mIlkroom is a necessity In dairy
ing, according to w. E. TomsOn, In
structor In dairy husbandry in the
Kansas State Agricultural college.
A milkroom is needed at all times
but Is particularly important in warm
weather, pointed out Mr.. TOmson. Min
must be kept away from flies The
room should be tightly screened and
kept In a sanitary condition.
The milkroom affords good facilities
for keeping the milk cool. This is es-
sential because when the temperature
of the milk is higher than degrees
undesirable bacteria that cause the
milk to spoil in short time are likely
to develop.

Name the Farm.

The slogan, Every farm should have a
name" is being promoted in many rural
places. The idea is that it makes farm
life seem dignifed to the young people
and leads them to prize the home place
instead of running off to other towns.
Readers OF English books must have
noticed how country places over there
have pretty names, tending to make them
seem attractive and livable.
In this country naming country places
used to be considered "hifalutin." Peo-
pie that did it were regarded as preten-
tious. 1t does sound absurd if they
choose some high sounding name having
no relation to natural features. But if a
country house nesting under oak trees
calls itself "The Oaks" there is nothing
spread.e eagle about it, Anyway, lots of
sound business farmers believe it has ad
vertising value and are doing it. No
doubt it does make the young folks think
the home place amounts to more than
they had realized.-White River Land

Thanksgiving is not a day; it is hab.
it, We cannot be thankful on Thanks

how every other day in the year, There
are some simple rules; Walk on the
sunny side of the street; live as much as
possible in the best room in the house
think about your friends, not your
enemies; talk about your good luck, not
your bad. These are some of the ways OF
acquiring the spirit of cheerfulness which
is the only soil on which the flower
Thanksgiving will grow.

Maine and Texas began the present
school year with new laws authorizing
the school boards to open a kinder
garten wherever parents petitioned
for them. The states of Washington,
Oregon, and Tennessee also recently
adopted some progressive legislation in
favor of the public kindergarten. Can
we not see oar way clear to get some
thing along this line started in Vermont?
A number of parents interested in es-
tablishing kindergarten in Middlebury
have made their hopes known at The
Register office. Are there others here
who would support the plan?

OUR OWN "WAe PRISONERS"

A notable year in the administration
Of our state penal and correctional in
stitutions is drawing to close, II
should be a matter Of widespread notice
and even point of general thanks
giving at this time that the inmates Of
our state prison, our house Of correc-
ton and our industrial school have all
been doing their bit to win the war.
AT Windsor and at Vergennes and at
Rutland much has been accomplished
toward adding to the food supply by in
stitutional gardens largely tended by
inmates, but the outstanding success of
this years work has been the manner
in which twenty-one men who were re-
leased from the House of Correction at
Rutland accomplished big job for the
state at Brandon.
Director of State Institutions John
h. Weeks is to be congratulated on the
report which he makes to the State
Board of Control on the matter. Though
it is only in praise of the prisoners that
he speaks it strikes US that the success
of his experiment must have been
due largely to his interested admins
tration of it.
Owing to the war, the state faced a
scarcity of help, and it was Director
Weeks idea that he could do some
necessary construction work at the
School for Feeble Minded in Brandon
by employing men from the House of
Correction, Accordingly, twenty-one
men were taken to Brandon and
practically given their freedom while at
work on the job. They were placed
upon their honor and roomed in build
ing situated on the main highway.
They were not under lock and key dur
ing their entire stay, which was from
the 18th of June to the 2Sth of October,
Director Weeks at the outset brought
these men to realize that they were
making history for the state, as it was
the first time such an experiment had
been tried, and further impressed upon
them the service which it indirectly
rendered to their country in wartime.
During the summer these men per-
formed almost thousand dollars worth
of labor. A ditch over 1000 feet in
length, varying from 3l-2 to II feet in
depth, with an average depth of 4l-2
feet was eXcavated; concrete man
holes were constructed; 8-nch sewer
pipe laid and covered; So square yards
OF concrete walk laid, and permanent
roadway q rods in length, IA feet wide
with stone foundation from one to
three feet in depth was constructed,
all of the work mentioned being ac-
comphshed by the men themselves.
The prisoners received almost one
thousand dollars and by employ ing them
saving to the State was made of
nearly the same amount. The money
was paid to the different individual 8
and in some cases sent to their families,
and in one case in particular bank ac-
count was opened.
1t is with well deserved words of
praise that Director Weeks concludes
his report, saying, 1T is with pleasure
that we state that their work and their
department was IN every way credit
able to themselves and the Institution.
