sible to note the best AT the close of
the program all united with the pupils

Though more than half century has
passed since the close of that great frat
ricidal struggle in which they were en-
gagged, there are nearly 700 veterans who
are members of the Washington County
Veterans association, and considerable
proportion of that number gathered to-
day at their usual stamping ground,
Dewey park, between Barre and Mont
pelier May the memories of the days
of '6l65 arouse their spirits, rekindle
their feeling of comradeship and, alto

amount should not be placed ON the

In this way only can we hope to avoid
a repetition OF the affair near Middlesex
in which a heavily loaded truck broke
through a main highway bridge and
caused much damage, besides blocking
the highway for more than "a hours, A

Royalton few years ago, at that time

Just how much of the reported strained
relations between Germany and Austria
is plain buncombe for the allies and how
much is reality is not certain at the
present time; but it does seem, in view
of the straitened circumstances of the
Austrian people, that there is far less
cordiality than when the war was in its
initial stages. However, it will not pay
the allies to bank too much on the repre-
sensations which are coming out of both
of these countries.

LET THE BRIDGES BE TESTED AND
MARKED.

All highway bridges in Vermont ought
TO be marked in such a way as to indi-
cate their carrying capacity At least
once every year the bridges should be
tested and the estimated strength of each

strength should be marked on each struc.
ture. 1t is only half solution Of the
problem Of highway maintenance to
adopt laws or regulations providing that
bridges shall not be subjected to a weight
beyond q definite tonnage, because the
bridges throughout the state do not con
form to any standard. That is. their
esrrying capacities vary greatly, not
only because Of the nature Of their con
struction but also because Of the weaken
ing due to service. The whole solution
would be 10 determine the strength Of
each bridge and then make il properly

Kerensky, former premier of the pro
visional government of Russia, who is
now on his way to the United States
will be able to give some accurate in.
formation concerning internal conditions
in Russia and concerning the state of
mind of the Russian people toward Ger
many and the war. He has just left that
troubled land and is. therefore, in recent
touch with affairs there, besides being a
good interpreter of Russian thought
Hence it is to be expected that his visit
to the United States, as well as to Eng
land, will prove to be of great conse-
quence.
