or ridges in socks. Break yarn and
thread into darning needle, drawing
one end into the other for four inches
Casting on should be with double yarn
and must be loose, as also the binding
off at toe, also free from lunches
Socks should be washed when finished
according to chapter instructions. In
taking up stitches on heel, always take

fall After a thorough trial lasting a
number of years our Vermont voters
stood solidly for local option, which
gives the people Of town The right to
say for themselves whether or not
liquor shall be sold in that town. This
is true democracy, and the bill worked
out splendidly for Vermont. 1t was
only in the larger towns that licenses
were taken out, but it gave an oppor-
tunity to the people of the smaller out
side towns and Of the rural communi-
ties to obtain a reliable emergency
remedy for family use that could be
handled by anyone without danger or
inconvenience. These larger towns
having licenses have also police forces
so that the few who might be inclined
to abuse their privileges were taken
care of and could not become nuis-
ances. The restriction passed at the
last legislature forbidding purchases
in bulk not only rescinded the vote OF
the state but has not been satisfactory
to the people. At any time if condi-
tons call for prohibition it is possible
for any state to vote for it and have
it but to bind themselves TO state
prohibition for all time and force pro-
hibition also upon other states by rati-
fying a national amendment will be
putting all power out of their own
hands and is wholly unnecessary and
not in any way war measure, by
authority of our representative, Hon.
Frank l.. Greene. We understand that
II states have already ratified this bill
but we are not looking for Vermont to
add another state TO the list. A repre-
sentative or a senator is by duty and
by honesty bound to represent his con-
stituency, and if he allows himself to
be bribed or cajoled into different
stand he is just as much traitor as
if he delivered his country into the
hands of the enemy Congress itself
has taken care OF the liquor question
| in its own way during the war, and
with 100000 of our votes out OF the
country fighting for the rights OF men,
