The summer auto traffic promises to
be heavier than ever this season on
account of curtailment in other means
of transportation and increased fares
and rates. II is understood that the
government has requested that the
public do not use the railroads more
than is absolutely necessary and that
on the trunk lines especially, there is
large decrease in passenger travel
as a result Of the request, which was
made necessary because of the unprec-
edented volume Of freight to be NOV
ed, due to work in connection with
winning the war. The autos must use
the highways and it is their right to
be there and the highways were pro-
vided for purposes Of travel or trans
portation and not designed as play
grounds. 1t is noted there are far too
many children using them as play
grounds, and not because Of lack Of
suitable Fairgrounds elsewhere. 1t is
dangerous for the children, places an
additional burden on the travelling
public and parents should be unwilling
TO accept the risk involved by allow
ing their children to use the roads or
streets as play grounds.

The correspondent from North Dor
set suggested that the Board of Trade
The Manchester journal. [volume] (Manchester, Vt.) 1861-current, 1918-07-04

The War Savings Stamp campaign
is past, the pledges were freely giver
and we know those pledges and more
will be taken up that our government
in this great crisis and with daily
growing expenditures, may have the
necessary funds to speed us to victory
The people of Manchester met this
call and went over the top in the
same patriotic spirit as in other prior
calls. The Board of Trade desires to
thank all who aided in any manner IN
the furtherance of the campaign and
we are more convinced than ever that
there is strength in organization and
that through it, the channels OF mutual
help and cooperation can be fostered
and widened.

establish a market day in Manchester
The idea is a good one and ore which
the Board Of Trade has been consider
ing for some time.
This plan has worked very we'll in
Montpelier where the Board OF Trade
and an organization of farmers are
working together II seems TO us that
10 make a market day a success, the
farmers should first have an effective
organization which can work with the
Board Of Trade. We would like TO
have more farmers become members
OF the Board Of Trade.
II would be simple thing to adver-
tise some day as market day and per
haps to designate some place for
meeting, but there will have to be
some systematic work done among the
farmers and gardeners to make sue
cess.

A new rumor seems to have gained
some ground in the community which
is as far from the truth as others in
the past. The rumor that the recent
fire at one of our manufacturing
plants was the work of anyone having
pro German inclination is untrue and
while it will never be known how the
fire started, it was undoubtedly due to
one of those causes to which manufac-
turing plants are daily exposed and
represents a risk that cannot be en-
tirely eliminated. There is nothing of
any character to indicate that the fire
was other than of accidental origin,
and it is hoped this rumor may be re-
futed upon every hand and all future
rumors of this character investigated
before given credence.

BOARD OF TRADE NOTES

The scheduled War Savings Stamp
drive is over and the returns are com
ing in slowly. Manchester went "over
the top with total Of sales and
pledges exceeding S45 10000 while our
quota was $40, $4,000. We are indebt-
ed 10 non-residents for a considerable
amount Of the pledges and the resi-
dents have not as yet filled their quo
Ia, so there is more work TO be done.
1t will be hard for many towns not so
fortunate as we are, TO make their
quotas and we must keep buying and
pledging to help the County, State and
United States to go over the top.

The Board of Trade does not want
to blow it's own horn too much but we
do think that the Board of Trade spirit
with the splendid cooperation Of the
people made the W. S. S. drive sue
cess.
The Manchester journal. [volume] (Manchester, Vt.) 1861-current, 1918-07-04

There was great amount Of detail
and tiresome work involved in the
War Savings Stamp drive, but the re-
Spouse Of the people amply repaid
those upon whom the burden fell.
The meeting on Friday night was
an especially pleasing end to the drive
The meeting was well attended, the
Opera House being nearly filled. The
announcement that Manchester had
pledged enough to make its quota was
pleasant surprise to all, including
the speaker of the evening, Hon. War
rem K. Austin, who had come prepared
to spur on a tagging drive. Mr.. Aus
tins address held the audience and
was enthusiastically and thoughtfully
received. We have seldom had the
pleasure of listening to more polish
ed and effective orator.
The singing by Mrs. Jennie S. Grif-
fifth and fine chorus was feature OF
the evenings program.
Nearly $4,000 additional pledges
were taken at the meeting.
