Not Fair to the Judge.
est. Adams Messenger. J

% A certain sort of a crouch has come
into existence because of credit given
to Hon. Charles E. Darling for his work
in the third Liberty loan drive. Unor
ganized patriotism is just as useless as
any unorganized force and it was the
duty of the state director to organize
Vermont patriotism in the third Liberty
loan drive so that its full force might
be felt. For instance, if the Liberty
loan drive had been allowed to drag the
way the sale of thrift stamps has, where
would Vermont have been. Every war
drive needs able leadership just as an
army needs commander and when the
work is well done the leader is certain
ly entitled to due amount of credit. We
don t think that anybody bought Lib
erty bonds to help Judge Darling, but
we do think great many people would
not have bought bonds were it not for
Judge Darling's efforts. Burlington
News
The crouch of which the contempt
rary complains in not due to the Civ
ing credit to Judge Darling for his work
iii connection with the Liberty loan
drive, for he is entitled and is receiving
the credit which is his due. The crouch
has developed from the very labored at
tempt on the part of The News to mag

Nifty the affair out of all proportion
Those who are informed that Judge
Darling is one of the owners of The
News, have questioned the good taste
of the contemporary in speaking in such
fattering language of the judge in so
many consecutive issues of the paper
The fact that Judge Darling is supposed
to be candidate for governor has re-
suited in giving rise to the suspicion
that all those editorials were actuated
more from a desire to capitalize the
work Judge Darling did on the Liber-
ty loan for political purposes than for
any other reason. That, it may be
said, is the logical development of the
crouch. No one wants to deprive Judge
Darling of single grain of credit
which is his due, and it should be a
generous allowance, but people sieken
of these repeated attempts to crown the
judge, and wonder is that he hash I
sickened of it himself, if he has had
time to pay any attention to it. The
News would be serving its purpose bet
ter to let the matter drop just where
it is, for it is not fair to the Judge

may have done equally well but the best
record we have seen reported came from
Bristol, where six carloads of sugar and

900 was sent to dealers outside the
state In addition small Independent
shippers consigned maple products to
the value of $4,000 through independ-

Hundreds of thousands of red blood
ed Americans felt a sense of sorrow on
reading the announcement that the most
redoubtable "ace' this country had
furnished for aerial warfare had been
killed as a result of battle in the
air against an enemy machine. Wal
lingford, Conn, is lively manufacture
ing community of several thousand pop
ulation, but Raoul Lufbery put it on
the map more conspicuously than any
institution which it possesses. There
are hundreds of thousands of people who
never heard of Wallingford until it be-
came familiar to them as the home of
the daring young man who brought
down IS German airplanes. Lufbery
began his career as an air fighter with
the French fiiers three years ago and
when our forces began to pour into
France he was transferred from the IA
nous Lafayette escadrille to the Amer
lean army His death was extremely
tragic. He jumped from his airplan,
at height of 500 yards after bulle
had hit him in the hand and flames wer'

bullets which opened his petrol tank. Luf
berry s death is untimely but his fame i
secure as hero whose name will al
ways stand for bravery and patriotism
in American history.

A few drops applied directly upon d

soreness instantly, and soon the entire

This new way to rid one I. feet of

to simply shrivel up the corn without
