Is 1t not possible that there is too
much worry about "reconstruction?'
We read OF endless reconstruction
committees, programs and policies.
But what is there really to recon-
struct? In this country, nothing.
We have had not destruction from
war. In Great Britain, very little
save ships. Ships are n large item.
But the reparation of the terrible
hole made by the submarine and by
the excessive losses Of war time is
already rapidly under way. In
France2 Wen, there is a good deal
there. But, apparently, about one
tenth as much as some imaginative
minds have pictured. In Belgium,
much. But it is a small population
and a small state. In Germany?
There is the run down condition Of
the railways and factories and fields.
But unless we are In the business of
imposing stupendous indemnities
upon Germany, and wish to put that
country in condition to pay rapidly,
we are not greatly interested there.
Where else? Are all these busy re-
constructors intent upon real prob
lens or upon notoriety or jobs2

INST BE PATIENT.

The RUTLAND, Vt, Herald tells It's
readers. that relatives OF Miss Marion
Rice. who il Red Cross nurse now
I'm France, have just read a letter
from her in which she wrote that the
day before the mails brought her a
Christmas package which was mall
cd in November, 1915. Miss Rice
added that the contents Of the box
were edible, a fact which speaks vol
urnes for Vermont cookery.
The deliberate progress Of this box
and It's ultimate delivery bring much
comfort, or should, to some thou
sands Of people who have mailed like
boxes 10 members Of the American
Expedltlonary Force. These boxes
may be years in transit. but event
uaIy they will reach the addresses
AS late as 1897 grizzled veterans OF
the great war then home and en-.
gagged in peaceful pursuits, will be
gladdened by the receipt OF boxes OF
cigarette, cake and candy shipped
to them by friends in this country
In 1917. The mails may be slow

1t will be recalled that after the
Liberty motor was invented 1t was

have enough castor oil to float a

the stuff it be administered to the

HERE COME THE KINGS.

A whole flock of kings is coming
to the United States to be guests OF
this country. II there is anything
we are laundering for 1t is to spend
money on a job lot of European mon
archs of high and low degree. We
have not had much use for them
since 1776 and rather considered that
the war would put the king business
on the bum. But they say they are
coming and we might as well get
ready to show them scrumptious
time. Dern the expense, what's a
few million in taxes for so worthy
an object as entertaining lot of
kings.

The State Council Of Defense is to
ask the legislature to appropriate
$4,000 so that it can ego on with
its work" Also there is a joker in
$4,000 for a secretary which is prob
ably the real reason of asking the
appropriation. The state has no
business spending this money to dc
the very things for which the state
already pays its officials. We do not
know how Representative Lamb and
Senator Myers of this district feel on
the subject but they will find out
with little inquiry that their constit-
uents are against this new scheme
TO give more jobs to more people
