The Otter Valley Route
brandon Union)

The people of the beautiful Otter Val.
ley are certainly open to censure if they
don't get busy and let the tourists who
traverse the s,ate in ever increasing
numbers know that the direct and most
beautiful route north and so nth through
the state is the Otter Valley route.
People of the Otter Valley may be sur
prised to learn that hundreds of tour
lists who enter the state at or near Ben
nington with the intention of following
the most direct route north to Burling-
ton are, for financial reasons, diverted
from the Otter Valley route at or near
the headwaters of Otter Creek and are
steered to the West. Their route to
the west of Otter Valley is many miles
longer and over much more billy
country with poorer roads. These dis
advantages, however, are of very little
consequence as compared with the fact
the tourists are being swindled out of
one of the most picturesque drives in
all New England. And it is not only
one of the most beautiful drives imagin-
able but it is full of historic interest.
The Otter Valley route from Manchester
north through Dandy, Wallingford,
Rutland, Pittsford, Brandon, Middle
bury and Vergennes to Burlington
strings together some of the finest anC
most important towns of Vermont, but
again we deem this of little i'm Dortancc
to the tourist as compared to the his.
toric interest, beautiful scenery anC
direct route over state roads that are
kept in repair. This route traverses
the shores of Lake Dunmore, one OF
the most historic spots in all New Eng.
land. 1t is here the Ethan Allen cave
is located and from which this intrepid
soldier went forth with a handful of
followers and in tho name of "The
Great Jehovah and the Continental Con.
gress" made history that will never
perish from the honor roll of "America
in its Making" Give the tourist d
square deal Let him know just what
Vermont has to offer in the way OF
scenery, historical interest, good roads
and direct routes, then he may take his
choice and your conscience is clear
No man who knows the beauty anC
conveniences of the Otter Valley route
can have a clear conscience while tour.

GREAT ITALIAN VICTORY

The tricolor of Italy is flying on the
summit on Monte Santo, the great
Austrian stronghold on the lsonzo
front. Gen. Cadorna's troops are now
marching on to complete victory.
The Italian Army has broken through
the Ausro- Hungarian line of defence
at several points and is closely pursuing
the Austro-Hungarians, who are re.
firing and defending the difficult ground
yard by yard.
The success of the Italians in winning
at Monte Santo, their greatest battle
in this war, is thrilling Italy as never
before, Both the army and the
civilians now see the result of two
years of suffering and economic hard.

ITALIANS PUSH ON

Notwithstanding that the Austrians
are bringing up fresh men to stem the
defeat, the Italians are slowly but
surely breaking down resistance in the
region around Monte Santo, north of
Gorilla, and making their way east
ward toward the border of upper
Carniola.
On the front in France the Germans
are throwing counter attacks against

but not only have the forces of General
Petain maintained their gains in their
entirety, but have taken more than
100 additional prisoners.

DEATH OF PARK DAVIS

News of the death of Park Davis.
Middlebury '62, was received this week
from Sioux Falls, S. d., where Mr..
Davis has been a prominent lawyer for
thirty years. He was born in Athens,
Vt, in 1897 and following his gradua-
ton from Middlebury he studied law
with Butler & Wheeler; Jamaica, VT. ,
and began to practice on his own ac-
count at ST. Adams in 1865. From 1881
to 1885 he was in the wholesale pro-
vision business at Albany, and then,went
West. At last commencement time
President Thomas received from Mr..
Davis letter of regret of his inability
to return to visit the old college, saying
that the lapse of years had only tended
to brighten the memories of the days he
spent here, and recalling how at that
time the strife of the Civil War was
under way. He was always loyal
alumnus of the college, and many who
knew him will regret TO learn of his
death.

CANES ONLY IN THE TRENCHES

Carelessness among some of our
soldiers in Europe in their attention to
dress regulations has led the American
command to issue new orders requiring
the officers to put aside their swagger
caps and to wear the regulation broad
Ibrimmed campaign hats, and to discard
their canes except in the trenches, y
The most scrupulous observance Of uni
form regulations are enjoined upon
every man, and the saluting of the Of
hcers of the allied armies will here
after be made most punctillous.
In order to further guard against
Germany getting supplies from this
country, President Wilson has for
hidden the shipment of any goods to
European neutral countries except I'M
der license. The President says the
intention of the government will be to
see that no American products are
made "the occasion of benefit to the
enemy, either directly or indirectly,
The new order indicates a vigorous
use of export control as war weapon
and policy of the strictest rationing
of countries contiguous to Germany.

PoPE's PEACE PLAN REJECTED


President Wilson has rejected the
Pope's peace proposals,
In note dispatched to the Vatican
the President says that while every
heart not blinded and hardened by the
terrible war must be touched by the
moving appeal of His Holiness, it would
be folly to take the path of peace he
points out, if it does not in fact lead to
the goal he proposes.
To deal with such a power as the
present rulers of Germany upon Pope
Benedict's plan, declared the President,
would involve a recuperation OF the
strength and renewal of the world S
dominati on Of that power, now baked
but not defeated after sweeping con-
tinent with the blood of innocent women
and children and the helpless poor as
well as of soldiers.
Permanent peace must be based upon
the faith of all the peoples and upon
justice and fairness and the common
rights of mankind, he adds, and eve
cannot take the word of the present
rulers of Germany as a guarantee Of
anything that is to endure, unless eX-
plicitly supported by such conclusive
evidence of the will and purpose Of the
German people themselves as the other
peoples of the world would be justified
in accepting.

YANKEE BOYS IN LONDON

London was over-run today with
American soldiers and sailors. All the
downtown streets, especially in the
Picadilly district, were thronged with
soldiers. Everywhere the Americans
mixed with the Tommes, Australians,
Canadians and Scotchmen and all agree
that London is fine and Britain s
soldiers are better.
In some places the Britians were
initiated into the game Of craps, and as
usual, the beginners won. One thing
that was noted was the especially warm
personal welcome extended the men.
The soldiers, having just been paid,
had pockets full of money, which they
were anxious to spend. They dined at
the best hotels, some of them occupy
ing tables adjoining those at which
British officers were seated. The only
difficulty which they experienced with
English money had to do with the value
of the coins, to which they are as yet
unaccustomed. They passed over pound
notes in payment for small purchases
and took back a handful of change
without counting it.
