TEACHERS 10 . serious esieat, the ma.
iority are continuing on, scrimping In
their expenditures far beyond the
point Of other workers.
We are not mentioning scrimping
AZ something exclusiyely prscticcd by
our teachers,-we are fully aware
that II Is the most common practice
In our homes~but We must remember
that the teachers salaries have not
advanced in any relation 10 the de-
crease In purchasing power Of the
dollar. That the general increase in
pay elsewhere has constituted an
actual reduction In the intrinsic value
Of these salaries and that as true men
and women we will begin setting our
house in order.
The salaries should be increased
Immediately at least 30 per cent more
than the prewar amount for a given
experience and status Due eonsid-
GRAFTON must be given to the natural
advance in salary that teacher
would have had at this time II there
had been no war On this there
should be at least fifty per cent In
crease II should begin not later than
February LIST and earlier II possible
This is not philanthropy This is not
needless action. II is something
that Is necessary II we are to pro-
tect this country from the scourge OF
the so called radical trend of thought.
Not that our salaried teachers
would be leaders In dissention but
that they would actually see no fair
deal in our scheme OF government
when special groups can put over an
increase OF one hundred per cent or
more in remuneration, while others
not so organized must be content TO
suffer an actual cut by reason OF the
the raise in pay forced by others.

gentlemen, we will not get results by
such methods. We will get results
by telling the plain facts--that our

nothing Of value was taken. The glass
was broken in a window near the back

The part railroads have played in the develop
mcnt Of the United States is beyond measure.
American railroads have achieved high stand
ards of public service by far-sighted and courage
investment Of capital, and by the constant
striving of managers and men for rewards or'work
well done
We have the best railroads in the world -
must continue to have the best
But they must grow.
To the $4,000, 100000 now invested in our
railroads, there will have to be added in the next
few years, to keep pace with the nations business,
billions for additional tracks, stations and
terminals, and engines, electric power houses
and trains, automatic signals, safety Devices the
elimination of grade crossings - and for recon
struction and engineering economies that will re-
duce the cost of transportation.
To attract to the railroads in the future the in

ing genius of the most capable builders and man
ayers, and the skill and loyalty of the best work
men in competition with other industries bid
ding for capital, managers and men - the railroad
industry must hold out fair rewards to capital, to
managers and to the men.
American railroads will continue to set world
standards and adequately serve the Nations needs
il they continue to be built and operated on the
American principle of rewards for work well done.

Preparations are well under way for
appropriate Christmas entertainments
at State institutions. There are sew
eral hundred children at Vermont In
tustrial School at Vergennes, and
School for Feeble Minded at Brandon,
to whom Christmas means much, but
could mean much more. The school
work at these institutions includes
proper attention to the significance of
holidays, and the superintendent and
teachers do everything within their
means to bring real cheer to these i'm
portant citizens of the State, whose
pleasures at Christmas time have per-
haps been limited, through no fault of
their own. Vermonters are not asked
to deprive any one of Christmas gifts,
but to give to these children anything
that can be given with cheerfulness.
Doubtless there are many persons who
will welcome an opportunity at this
season of the year TO supplement the
effort of the State, in being parents
to a large family of children, now in
its care. Contributions or gifts may
be sent to c. w. Wilson, superintend-
ent at Vergennes, or to 7. j. Allen, NJ.
d., superintendent at Brandon. Books
at this time, or any time Of the year,
and subscriptions to children's maya
zines would be most acceptable.
