TWENTY-SIXTH AND
TWENTY SEVENTH

New York surrenders to its 9th
Division today People were waiting
all night along the parade route OF
the returning Guard division. The
wonderful reception accorded to the
men Of this spirited division is fore
taste of the welcome which the Yam
kee Division will receive in Boston by
and-by, when the much longer service
of our heroes is crowned by the return
of those who still survive.
The Goth and the 9th divisions
were nominally sister organizations
The numbers of the 27th's brigades
and regiments were in exact success
sion to our own. We began with the
101st Regiment and ran to the 104th;
the New York division took up the
thread there, and ran from the 105th
to the 108th. Our New England bril-
gades were the 51st and the 52nd;
New York's the 53rd and 54th. But
the history of the two divisions was
quite different. The Goth, the YAM
kee Division, was the only National
Guard division which was found ready
to go to France without preliminary
training in this country. The Yam
kee Division sailed from our shores in
September 1917, and was in France
by the 9Th Of October of that year.
The New York division had a long
training at Spartanburg, s. c., and did
not reach France until May 30, 1918,
nearly eight months afterward. While
the 9th Division was still in South
Carolina, the standards of our 104th
Regiment had been decorated by the
French for the brilliant victory won
by the regiment at Apremont; every
one Of our New England soldiers had
by that time received his baptism of
fire, and many of them had been laid
to rest forever in French soil.
Much later corners on the scene Of
war, much briefer fighters, the 9th
Division nevertheless distinguished
themselves in action. Now, by the
hazard of Army orders, they are at
home considerably in advance Of the
veteran survivors Of our Yankee div
ision. and are properly and most en-
Enthusiastically welcomed by their rela-
tives and friends. New York knows
how to manage such celebration.
We can hardly hope TO rival it in mag
nitude with our reception to the 26th,
but in the cordiality, the grateful emo
lion, of our welcome, we need not ask
odds Of any one on earth.--Boston

VERMONT TAKES TOP PLACE
Success in Relief in the Near East
Drive Scores Highest of States.

IL has been briefly announced that
the drive for relief in the Near East
was a success in Vermont, but this only
briefly tells the story. Vermont has
honor place among all the States in
this worthy cause. The State sub
scribed l57 per cent of her quota. Ohio
was next with $50 per cent and Wash
ington state with 14l percent.
Addison, Caledonia, Orange, Or
leans, Rutland, Windham and Windsor
counties went "over the top" while
other counties lacked but little of
reaching their quotas. All but five
towns in Orange county contributed
their quotas.
The two towns that shine the
brightest are Lyndon, in Caledonia
county, and Shoreham, in Addison
county. They both oversubscribed
nearly 325 per cent. Randolph was
$50 per cent and many towns over
subscribed more than 100 per cent.
One hundred and twelve towns Of the
State exceeded their quotas. The
town of Proctor leads all other towns
in an oversubscription Of more than
400 per cent.
The largest individual contribution
in the State was $1,000 The lowest
contribution was one cent and there
were several of this amount.
Vermont's quota was $4,000, The
