In His seventy-sixth Year.

What is most remarkable in the pre-
mier's visits to the battle field is that
Clemenceau is now in his seventy-sixth
year. yet he shows no signs of firing.
The poilus' one great encouragement
is to know they are supported by the
government.
The Tigers" visit to the men is a
great comfort to them as well as to
their wives working in factories in
the rear. Indeed many complain of
the premier's fearlessness in visiting
advanced positions and often getting
under fire of the German guns. All
ask him to be more careful, saying that
he is too useful man for France to
lose

Visits Advanced Positions.

Only three or four days ago Glenn
enceau visited the most forward posi-
tions on the Somme. On returning.
he found that his car had been under
fire and that most Of the windows
were broken. Still such trif1es do not
disturb the Tiger" All he wants is
that France and her allies shall win
the war. After each trip he always
comes back to Paris with the, best i'm
pressions. He knows the Germans will
not break through. Confirmation of
such faith may best be seen in a note
just issued, advising the Inhabitants
Of Campaigne. who had thought it best
to leave town, that, they could return
in all safety from invasion.

(Rutland Herald.)

Certainly the United States SHOULD
celebrate the Fourth of July, but no.
in reckless or money spending fashion
This year, of all others, the country
needs revival of national pride and /;
speeding up of national effort. Why?
Because the very independence that In
dependence day stands for is at stake
today.
A lot of foolish things have been said
in reference to the war, but none was
more ill-considered than Secretary Bak.
er's reference to 'war 5000 miles

The war is no longer something re.
mote and far away. 1t is at our doors
and it has been there for over three
years, except that in some instances il
has been waged secretly and without re-
gard to national treaties and diplomatic
obligations.
The immortal principles enunciated by
congress, put into living words by JET
ferson and signed 142 years ago, by sc
delegates from the 13 colonies of thu
United States are menaced, as neve,
before, by the ambitions and aggression.

occasion arises.
Not one such achievement is record

New York Times points out, but she con.

so long and hard after the departure of

If it is true that good many people
are inclined to view war savings stamps
as purely juvenile institutions it is. high
time that the impression was corrected.
1t is true that the children have been
leaders in the purchase of these stamps,
but that the government wishes to con-
fine their sale to children is quite the
reverse of the truth. This becomes OBJ
vious when we stop to think that a
sale of stamps amounting to $40 per
capita is expected by the end of the
current year. Take the case of Brattle-
boro as an example. Since the begin
ming of the year the total sale of stamps
here has amounted to approximately
$4,000 whereas it ought to be close to
$4,000. No one can fairly say that the
children of the town are not doing
splendidly in the purchase of stamps,
but it must be admitted that there arc
n great many grownups who haven 4
yet realized their responsibilities in
this direction. The task which con.
fronts the local war savings committee

see how utterly they are opposed TO
the Prussian theory of divine right, the
practices OF kultur and the gospel of
might and terrorism:
That all men are created equal:
Endowed by their Creator with GER
tain inalienable rights;
Entitled to life, liberty and the mr.
suit of happiness;
Governments derive lust powers from
the consent of the governed;
Whenever government becomes de-
structive of these ends, it is the right of
of the people to alter or abolish if.
If this country should be dominated
by Germany, every principle in the sub
llmeSiocnment which states the funda-
mental ideals of democracy must be
thrown away. Celebrate the Fourth i?
We should consecrate it and ourselves
anew to cause never in greater peril
than at this writing.
As one indispensable act of that eele
bration and conservation the Herald
suggests the reading of the Declaration.
True, it is presumably taught and read
in our schools. Every child knows
1t, you say. Perhaps so, but there
never was a better time to revive and
re-dedicate its blood-sealed principles
than on the coming Fourth of July
independence Day.
The fact is that there are plenty of
men who need to be reminded, in detail.
OF what that document stands for. By
all means, let us celebrate, enunciate,
'e-anlmate, consecrate, educate and re-
iedicate ourselves and our country

Mr.. Ford and the Senate.
New York Times


1t would be great pity if the gov
eminent were to lose the benefit of
Henry Ford s skill and ability, as it
would do if he were to be elected TO
the senate. Mr.. Ford would have to
give up all his contracts with the gov
eminent. He would have TO stop doing
all the work that he is so well quail
fled to do, SO qualified above other
men. The law forbids any one inter
ested III government contracts from
holding Office. Even if Mr. Ford could
find way around the law, public
opinion would not tolerate his doing II;
II would be scandal 1t is not think
able that he could put his interests In
some oAaiielse s name.
If the government were to sacrifice
all this for greater gain, it could be
endured. But there would be no greater
gain to offset it. There would be no
gain at all. There would be a loss.
Mr.. Ford is man of lovable qualities
but there are many men of lovable
qualities who are not qualified for the
United States senate; and Mr.. Ford is
disqualified by possessing a kind of
mind which, no matter how well he
might apply himself to the study, would
leave government and politics sealed
book to him all his days. His entrance
into the senate would create a vacancy
both IN the senate and in the automo-
bile business, and from the latter Mr..
Ford cannot be spared.

side air. In ordinary years we merely
pay fine in the shape of an extra coal
bill for our; indifference; but we have
now reached a stage in war operations
where we must commander these re-
sources. If every householder. with or
without expert advice, would go over
his cellar, and his attic, and look around
the windows and other places that will
occur to him, he would find much that
he could do to advantage. The same
is true of furnaces and heating ap-
paratus. Their efficiency can often be
greatly increased by little intelligent
oversight. The millions of tons of coal
that We. are behind. according to DR..
Garfield s figure, doubtless lie right
about us. if we only have the gumption
to pick them up. Now is the time to do
it.
