JOE'S WELTS

Joe Fearon, 10 years old, appeared in a New
York court room with % welts on his body. They
were made it was admitted, by strap with which
the boys father had beaten him.
The father had been arrested on a charge of
. cruelty, and the boy was a witness against him.
The father, said Joe was bad boy; that he
stayed out late at night, and associated with other
bad boys. Joe admitted that he had been dad. /"
The welts were counted, welts the father admit
ted being responsible for and-the FATHER
WAS ACQUITTED! Magistrate Mcmahon went
even farther. He rebuked the agent of the So
ciety for Prevention of Cruelty to Children for
having the father arrested. He said:
:. ''The boy should have received 10 times
more punishment than he did. In my
= opinion he was disobedient. If he were "
my boy, would horse-whip him."
Ten times % welts are 22o welts. III.
Now what do YOU think Of that? You faith
ers and you mothers Of boys, what do you think of
that Judge, that father and that decision?
We think it is fearfuly and wonderfully un-
just.
We don't know much about that father, but
we have studied the boy problem from the faith
er's angle and from the front seat of many ju-
venile courts, and from the outside: of reform
schools. And this we have learned: ~
That no boy who is given the right chance the
right home leadership, and the right home COM
panionship by his father goes far wrong The
trouble in most instances is that some fathers
try to correct with strap mistakes they began
making when their boys were in their cradle days.
They didn't begin THEN being companion, pal
and best friend of their sons. They let their boys
get started the other way and then tried to bring
them up short by use of the strap and harsh
words -
1T cant be done, not that way, and fathers ought
to be deferred from trying it. Welts on bodies of
poys who have gone wrong will no more make
good boys out,of them than the old "black hole"
Of prisons made good men put Of bad ones. And

JOHN PURROY. mitchell

The death Of Major John Purroy Mitchell, fQr-
mer mayor Of New York, is a multiple tragedy.
Taking office at the remarkably youthful age Of
|34 years, he was the most efficient and the most
politically disinterested mayor New York ever had.
In the campaign to succeed himself he ran upon
la platform of Americanism but was beaten by a
combination Of Tammany, Hearst and socialism.
Defeated for mayor, he went into the most haz-
ardous branch Of the military service. Had he
been reelected mayor Of New, York, as he shoald
have been, he would not have been dead today.
That is the first tragedy. He was killed before he
delivered his' blow to the enemy. That is the
second tragedy.
Mitchell is dead. Gardner of Massachusetts is
dead. And men who are curse to their country
are alive But there is divine consolation in the
life well spent Mitchell used his life; he did not
waste it or hoard it. And for his loss the coun-
try, through the inspiration which his death i'm
presses, may, after all, be the. gamer. St Paul

CONCENTRATION

The trend of the times is toward concentra-
ton. Styles have been cut down; little luxuries
here and there have been eliminated; products
that have called for prodigal expenditure Of ma
terials more necessary in other vital fields have
been curtailed. The government is seeking to
strike out those things deemed less essential to
a successful waging of the war against the
enemy.
This opens new field of thought. In the course
of day, of q week, or a month, we. do 9 lot Of
Experimenting. We buy this, that or the other
thing possibly because some merchant suggests
it to us. It is an unknown quantity with us. 1t
may be good or it may be bad, only time will tell
the story-frequently we toss it away and con-
TESS bad bargain.
When millions of people do the same thing the
money thus tossed away runs into millions Of
dollars. And those very millions might be help
ing our government and our boys on the western
front: ~ y 81 t3}$ !,
Why not concentrate on the known quantities
the products we i'm our own mind know to be
good? In +:" every field there are
recognized standards, products and articles Of
proven quality. They are no higher in price
than those unknown generally less in price
and dependable. The resources Of the producers
are such as to guarantee not only q certainty OF
SERVICE but constantly improving product and
at lessening cost to the purchaser. BY obtaining
this certainty Of service we are assured money
saving and satisfaction.
Let US be patriotic and concentrate on known
quantities: An editorial from the Goodrich. -.

WISCONSIN SOCIALISTS

In their platform adopted the other day, the
Wisconsin socialists say ri Il. ]. :.:# U
:. Int this dark hour of bloodshed and /:
strife, we, the delegates, to the socialist Z
party Of Wisconsin, reaffirm our belief s
in international socialism and in,the prip s
I. ciples of human brotherhood as the only "
| y great force in the world that can bring
order out Of this chaos and prevent q rep /,
etition Of the catastrophe. u 4. y
The perfect work Of international socialism is
evident in Russia, the only country where inter
|nationalism has acquired nationalism. These
American majority socialists opposed to this war
and true to their brethren, the majority socialists
of Germany declare that socialism represents .'the
only genuine patriotism Of today" They protest
against the establishment of European militar-
ism in America" That is the measure and extent
of their American patriotism. Yet much as they
boast of their internatonalism, the only patriot
ism of which they are capable displays itself in
their platform. They demand 1.-THE right to teach
besides the English language any language in pub
lie or parochal schools that the patrons may de-
SIRE" They are good German patriots and they
cannot hide their German patriotism.- New York

It's none of the second district
business, of course, but Congressman
Greene appears to be "agin" several
of the movements which are looked
upon the nation over as advance leg
islation. He voted against national
prohibition with the small minority
and against the woman's suffrage bill
in congress with the tail end of the
legislators. The peculiar thing about
it is he voted with those men who are
generally spoken Of as reactionary
or stand-pat. Dale, on the other hand
both on the prohibition and the suf-
frage question voted with those who
recognize the advance of opinion on
such topics of national and world
wide moment as these two great
questions. Some paper asked if the
east side wanted to exchange their
for the West-side man,
trying to belittle Dale. For one we
prefer the man we nave-a man who
goes after frst-hand information
about the worlds greatest question,
war, and brings back a ringing mes
sage that is stirring the nation;
man who recognizes the evil of a gov
ernment's official connection with
generally admitted curse, the liquor
traffic, and casts his vote for it's abol-
ishment; a man who recognizes in
woman a person capable Of judgment
and lends the weight of his influence
in her favor. While recognizing
Congressman Greene's great ability
this paper is disappointed in his at
titude toward some questions of the
hour.

Less Tubercular Cattle.

That the scourge of bovine tuber-
culosis is becoming less acute in Yer
mont because of the precautions tax
en- by the state and national govern
ment cooperating, is apparent from a
statement made by C. G. Conley, the
government inspector who has charge
of government inspection at the Bur
lington Rendering company's estab-
lishment where cattle are slaughter
ed and who also inspects plant at
Hyde Park.
The office of livestock commission
err was taken over a year ago by the
commissioner of agriculture at St.
Adams, who secured the cooperation
of the authorities at Washington in
the work of testing and inspecting
cattle in Vermont. To this end the
erinaries, c. w. Reed and F. E. Blake.
The state furnishes one, DR.. Camp
bell of Johnson.
An annual appropriation of $685.
600 was made by the last legislature
for the work and this sum will prove
ample, as the government pays the
salaries and expenses of the two men
it sends.
A very much smaller number of
cattle are found suffering with the
disease than ten or Is years ago
when hundreds of cattle were slaugh-
tered because of affected lungs.
Constant care and watchfulness,
however, is necessary to prevent the
spread of tuberculosis in cows, par
ticularly in the season when they are
kept indoors.

CALLS FLYING
THE REAL THING.
CONTINUED from page one).

."The boys here are all getting
shined up for Saturday afternoon in
! spection, and I think it would be
well if did. The office force of the
Turner Construction company sent
me another sweater.
Hoping you are all enjoying life
as much as l am
"With love,
In earlier letters he tells something
of the thrills he first experienced in
going into the air:
"Last night I was much surprised
and delighted to be notified that l was
to start flying today and have been
flying for an hour or more today. Be-
lieve me, it has automobile riding
beat mile. You just sit up there
and look down at the world and it
gives you a feeling as if you owned
it. My instructor let me run the
thing most of the time except for
had to help me out in giving the ship
the proper bank on turns, but 1 feel
pretty sure that l can get the knack
of it after a few days. We flew in
over the city only up about 1900 feet
and l don't think I could have found
my way back very easily if he hadn't
been along. You get the best SEN
sation when you shut off the engine
away up, and glide down onto the
field. I shall be up twice daily from
now on and should be able to go
alone in about week. / was lucky
in being with the first lot from our
Cornell class to fly, as the others may
not go up for two weeks
Cali the cadets were invited out
somewhere for Christmas dirner, and
Pm figuring on going to one place
where they have dinner at D. m. and
then to another where they dine at
z p. m. 1 ought to get filed up be-
tween the two"
81 have now had five days of fly
ing and about five hours in the air
This afternoon my instructor told me
that if it was calm day tomorrow,
l could go alone. Today it was blow
old ship right side up pretty much by
myself. When the wind fops her up
on one side or keels her down toward
earth, [ say to myself, "Look here,
old girl, who's boss here, you or T."
and bring her back where want her.
Landing a plane is about the
same as landing a motor boat You
pull off your throttle until the engine
runs idle, and nose her down toward
earth at about 80 degrees. This keeps
up your flying speed and when you
are SO feet above earth you begin
leveling off until she gets about five
feet off and hold her there until she
loses speed and drops gently to the
ground. You see all that is neces-
sary to fly is to know how to control
the ship, to keep constantly on the
alert and to use good judgment.

VERMONT NO STACKER.
Men Furnished for Military Service
Show Top Rank.

Figures substantiating the recent
account given out by Gov. H. F. Ora
ham to the papers of Vermont rela-
tive to the position in which Vermont
stands as to men sent into the war,
have been received at the adjutant' s
generals office having been sent in
the report of Provost Marshal Gener-
al Crowder to the secretary of war.
The figures greatly belle the state
ments that have been used in news
papers outside Of Vermont and in
magazines referring in a derogatory
nature to the showing which Vermont
made. Not only does the report
show that Vermont has done we'll in
the army, but the report Of the men
contributed by Vermont in all branch
army, marines and other branches,
shows That she is with Colorado in
the seventh place, or, if taken separ-
ately, she stands in at least tenth
position in that contribution, some
thing which had not been heretofore
credited to Vermont The report
relative to those contributed in the
army shows five states standing
higher than Vermont or if the prov
ince of Hawaii is taken into consid-
Grafton Vermont is seventh. In
Guiding the last-named province the
standing is thus: Hawaii, 1927;
Oregon, COLL; Maine, 74.34; New
Hampshire, 1857; Wyoming, 69.32;
Vermont, 67.46. This does not give
Vermont much of a showing over
Rhode Island, which is next in line
with a credit Of $3.50, but Massachu-
sets, which did considerable publici-
ty as to what it had been doing, is in
18th place with but 52.O7, while Con-
necticut is in oath place with Al ,48.
Nevada, of which the outstate papers
make a good deal, is in 46th position
with 1862, while Oklahoma stands
at the bottom of the ladder.
The showing in the total contribu-
tons in all branches Of the war ser
vice, including navy, marine and
army, again places Oregon at the top,
Utah next, District of Columbia third
while in the report Washington and
Maine are paired at fourth, Wyoming
and Rhode Island for fifth, New
Hampshire sixth and then Colorado
and Vermont paired for seventh
place. The scale as shown in the re-
port does not divide the ratio between
the five-point scale and the last two
named states have a standing of be-
tween IS and so points.
