Republicans Solid

Stories come from, the northern
part of the state about the many Re-
publicans who are going to vote the
Democratic state ticket this year but
there is 10 indication of bolt in this
section 0f Vermont. The fact is that
the strongest opposition to Clement
is not inspiled by his attitude on the
liquor question (Which will be settled
by the legis lature), but is a result of
the grudee which certain party lead
ers bear him for throwing a wrench
into the political machinery in 1902
and thus thwarting several personal
ambitions. Mr.. Clement will be elect
ed governoc of Vermont next week
Tuesday by a substantial majority
and will give the state an administra-
ton based on sound judgment, rug
ged independence and acknowledged
business ability.-Brattleboro Re-

FFESS COMMENT
Don't Turn Back the Clock

That the proposed government
stamp TAX or bank checks will proba-
bly, fail Is welcome news not only to
bankers but to every man who car
ries a modest checkbook. The money
return from the proposed tax would
be trivial in comparison with the re-
sulting annoyance and irritation to
public by tending to discourage the
use of checks and promoting return
to cash payments. Such law would
turn back the clock of progress in
business methods.-New York Her

THE BOY IN FRANCE

By Mary Raymond Shipman Andrews
In the November Scribner
Copyright, 1918
STEPPED in hot haze of the August
afternoon
The garden dreams in a many-splen-
dored trance;
The locusts drone a long, insistent
tune;
And the boy-the boys in France.
Down the stone steps the rose-pink
phloxes stand,
Like delicate sculptures, through the
breathless day;
Brilliant yet shadowy, as the bright,
vague land;
And the boy-the boys away.
The dogs about the terrace hstless
lie,
Waiting a springing step they used
to know;
We wait, we also-and the days crawl
by;
The boy-we miss him so.
Green fields reach over hills to fields
of gold;
Far off the city shimmers, gay but
wan;
The radiant scene breathes lonliness
untold;
The boy-the boy is gone.
Sudden his service flags impetuous
story
Flashes bugle note across the flow
ers;
Sudden the aching loss is pride and
glory;
He is in France-he's ours!
Lad of my heart! From all across
your land
One thought wings to that land of
old romance;
One proud America stretches loving
hand
To the boy-the boy in France.

DisircIined to Matrimony.

Among the non-Burmese tribes
that live in Burma, women are not
though much of. The Banyak or Ban
yaugs, for instance, will not marry I'M
less they are ordered to do so, and
the prospective bridegroom often has
to be dragged to the brides house. 1t
is left, however, to the Was to reach
the depths Of ungallantry, for with
them marriage is q question Of sale
or exchangc. A prepossessing bride
is estimated at few buffal0es, one
who is ill-favored may be had in ex-
change for q pair of fowls, or even
a dog.

GentieneSs.

Gentleness is a good word to put
under the shelter Of courage, and
good thing to put among the prep
arations for the unknown year. 1t
is no uncommon thing, in preparing
for a journey, to include articles
which, in fact, are never needed. They
are brought home again unused, and
sometimes spoiled. Now an absO-
lutte assurance may be given to any,
one who requires it, that if this moral
preparation and prerequisite for the
journey of the year be taken, it will
be needed, and it will be used, not
alone ON rare occasions, but more or
less daily all the time.-A. Raleigh.

Wounded Soldiers to Make Toys

Soldiers in hospitals in Italy will
be taught to make wooden, cardboard
and mechanical toys if a proposal
made by the "Samaritana" School of
Florence is accepted. These toys
have always been in great demand,
and now that the supply ha,> been
greatly depleted, it it is believed that
the output of the soldiers will find a
ready market.
The manufacture of these simple
toys by the soldiers is regarded as
the beginning of the establishment of
an industry long neglected in Italy
The school has appealed to the pub
lie to give the necessary materials, as
paper, scraps, cardboard, paste, wire,
thread, colors, brushes, carpenters
tools etc.

OF course, we have long recog-
nized in a formal. hair-hearted way
that the community was responsible
for the health OF all its people by
our poor-1aws. our county psysi-
clans, our free dispensaries and
charity hospitals But what we now
want and must have is not merely
medical attention and nursing care
OF a sort for every citizen of the
state but the very best and most
skilled and effective that can pos
sibly be provided at any price.
And every careful investigation Of
the actual facts OF medical atten-
dance and hospital care, whether in
city Sums or in open country dis
tricts has demonstrated the shame
full fact that in this day Of grace and
enlightenment not more than from
one-fourth 10 one-third Of the whole
community get such adequate and
ideal attention or anything even
approaching IT, About one-half get
ting inferior or insufficient medical
attention and nursing and about
one-fourth of the community get
ting none at all when they are i'll
Nor is this deplorable state Of af-
fairs solely a matter Of expense. as
is shown by the curious fact that
the one-fourth OF the community
which gets really adequate care con-
sists OF almost equal parts of the
10 percent Of rich and well-tO-do at
ne end OF the social scale and the
is percent Of destitute or desperate
/ " poor at the other.
The very rich can command all
the medical skill and hospital care
and relays Of nurses, which their
cases require, while the very poor
go directly without sense of hu-
initiation or shame into the great
public hospitals where they are at
tended free gratis for nothing by
| the ablest and most distinguished
members Of the medical profession
and cared for by splen6idly organ
lied stats OF highly trained nurses
The man who with his family falls
between these stools Of perfect and
| adequate medical attention and
nursing care is the great backbone
of the community the entire intel
ligent working class, from the day
| Iaborer up to the office worker and
| lesser mercantile and professional
classes. whose pride forbids them to
apply for admission TO what they
| regard as a pauper hospital and
whose means do not permit them
to meet the ruinously high cost OF
first class medical and nursing at
! tendance.
What we need is careful study
/ and intelligent redistribution of the
medical and nursing and financial
! resources Of the community, in place
Of our present brainless and hap
hazard method Of medical service
and practice What can be done
when the community really puts it
| back and its brains into the task
/ is triumphantly shown by what has
| been done for the health Of our
troops in France and those of our
allies:
Disease on the English and Amer
