A police magistrate of Philadelphia,
after bordering on the case of an air
man who had been prosecuted on q
charge of violating the blue laws of the
state made in 1894, by accepting money
for carrying passengers on Sunday, de-
cided that flying on the Sabbath did
not violate those laws. Laws made in
1894 when nothing but angels were sup
posed to be travelling the aerial routes
do seem a bit obsolete when applied to
the conditions of 1919.

It Pays to Advertise.
Burlington Free Press, J

Vermont has made fairly good begin
ming i'll recognizing the necessity of pub
lcity for our attractions as a common
wealth We are still far behind other
states in our appreciation of the way in
which publicity can be proiitably utilized
in the larger cities For example we find
in a New York newspaper double col
umn advertisement about ten inches in
length starting with the striking and
truthful statement that Apples on your
tables mean dollars in the bank" When
you read along further, however, you find
this is not an advertisement OF Vermont
apples, but of single brand of apples
from Idaho, Oregon and Washington. Ii
it pays those states it viii pay Vermont
to adopt that style of advertising its va
ried products.

A RESERVATION ADOPTED.
Senate Can Order Withdrawal of Unit
ed States from League of Nations.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-The Pres
ident will have no participation in
withdrawal from the league of ma
lions if the United States hereafter
should take sHch a step. The action
of congress, without the approvai of
the President, will be sufficient basis
for notice of withdrawal.
The senate late Saturday afternoon,
by vote of so to 80, adopted the res
ervation offered by the foreign re
lations committee, prescribing that no
tice of withdrawal shall be given
through concurrent resolution of con
gress. The majority of Is was unex-
pectedly large. This was due to the
fact that two more Democrats cooper
ated with the Republicans for the first
time. Those were Senators Chamber
lain and Smith of Georgia.

ARMISTICE DAY.

In England tomorrow at eleven
o'clock every business and person will
stop wherever they happen to and for
two minutes maintain complete silence
in observance of the first anniversary
of Armistice dav. In America it will
be different The first national con
vention of the American Legion viii
open at Minneapolis, in five states the
day has been proclaimed general hol-
idav and in hundreds Of townssss and
cities there will be q cessation of in.
dustry, sports, parades and public ex-
crcises held in observance of the day.
What il the proper spirit i'll which to
observe the day? Shall it be spirit
made pessmistic by the problems and
difficulties of the times or an optimistic
spirit enthused by the clements of
strength of society the world around:
Many of us have seen q man IN the
darkness of cold winter night watch
ing the flames destroying his home and
q
ton he could see nothing but destruc-
ton of his home and property, the SUI
premacy of a destructive element, loss
If shelter. comfort and associations of
lifetime. There was no hope, nc
courage, no strength for battle. Des.
olation alone could be seen. But turn
| ing around toward the darkness tn,
| light of the flames revealed to him the
residents of his neighborhood all 81
fenced by their sympathy with him
each heart throbbing with the desire K
aid him, everyone ready to contribute
something to relieve his distress anl
! ready to join him in his struggle for 1
new and better home. There were sym
i pathy, friendship, constructive power
hope and a faith that gave strength an,
encouragement. Evidently it was Il
that man 5 advantage to turn from
the light of his burning home and Sc
what its light brought out in the sur
rounding darkness.
Tomorrow we hope the American PEG
pie will turn their thoughts from tn
hopeless and disheartening features o
life to its more inspiring, hopeful an
energizing features. Let us look to tn
treaty of peace that has been accepte
by Germany and ratified by England

Steps, endless steps,
How many pass the door
On service swift and silent,
On errands manifold!
Steps. myriad steps
And hurrying, flying feet;
With clink of glass
Or roll of wheeling chair
Or convalescent tread
Uncertain, shutting, slow,
And yet held on
BY steady, helpful arm
And measured step beside
No idle steps are here,
No dallying feet along the hall,
The shrilling bell;
The throb of pain:
Drug nausea and the parch of thirst.
The scorch of fever and the cooling
bath;
The welcome tray,
The mute thermometer.
The enquiring touch of telltale artery;
The peering visitor,
The doctor. grave with concern or
cheerful with result;
The drab routine of preparation.
The raving patient or the trancelike

To lessen pain,
To speed recovery

Those steps. those endless steps.
