That there is grave need of rallying
to the assistance of the hospitals Of
Vermont is shown by the statistics of
the year just past in some of those in
stitutions. The Mary Fletcher hospital
in Burlington, one of the richest in the
state, ended the year with deficit of
nearly $4,000, while the hospital at
Brattleboro was between 5000 and 800
short at the close of the year. In the
case of the Mary Fletcher hospital the
recommendation is made that the mum
Der of charity patients be reduced be-
cause of the inability of the institution
to meet the increasing costs by the in
come of its endowment from Mary
Fletcher That would be most unfor-
tunate because the charity patients
must be attended to in some way.
Friends of hospitals in Vermont must
come to the aid of the institutions if
the people are to receive the treatment
which they must have or die.

THE NEW REQUISITE OF BANK
CLERKS.

As the result of the recent hold-ups
and bank robberes, the banks of New
York City have begun the training of
their employees in the use Of firearms,
the purpose, of course, being to resist
attack by criminals bent upon stealing
the funds of the banks or the banks
clients. Such training as feature
of the requirements for service in a
banking institution is very novel, but
it is becoming more and more necessary
as the thugs succeed in their acts OF
terrorism. At the same time the small
err places of the country should put
their police and sherifrs through a stiff
course of training in the use of firearms
so that they may protect the banks
and other financial institutions Now
and then one reads of police or sheriffs
resisting the efforts of robbers so that
the purpose of the latter was complete
ly fooled, Recently the news dispatches
told of the killing of three robbers and
capture of another of the same gang
which was trying to break into an Ohio
bank and in another case, the killing
of one gangster and the capture OF
three others through the vigilance and
good craftsmanship of police and sher-
ifs. This sort of stiff resistance to
crime will have salutary effect.
