dinariness and charm he created
around him was the more inspiring
because he made no attempt to con-
form to the convention demands of a
hero. He outdid the least of US in
being human and simple, without a
trace of superiority or condescension,
without the least effort at equality
He was one of US from the first to
the last. He was not stingy with his
friendship, but included US in his life
and interests, and wanted to be in
Guided in ours. Before one knew ii
one would tell him all about ones
self. With that Unsuitable curiosity
found only in men of perpetual youth,
he would draw US out, get an init
religion, III ideals and ambitions
and he always remembered correctly
our names, our hobbies, and our
families.
Charm is as difficult to define as it
is impossible to mistake, and the
manifestations of Colonel R~oosevelt's
attraction were so varied that one is
hard put to it to know where to be-
gin. Perhaps the most essential
qualities of his charm were his
g~eniality and humor. l felt the in
fluence of these when | first had oc-
casion to cut copy. AS usual, he had

The thought flashed upon me that

The luminous companionship he
gave US all, the way he aroused our

the welfare of America, illustrated to
us most admirably the secret of his
political success, particularly the
great success of his Presidency. Col

The nation that knew Colone
Roosevelt is a big and an ~articulate
one. 1t can be safely said that nc
President of the United States, OF
ruler anywhere else in the worlds
history, ever had such a close person,
al following, such wide, intimate &C
quaintance with the individuals of his
county, as did the popular Teddy
Roosevelt. We need not build up.
for future consumption, heraldlc
tales of gestures, moods and exploits
upon a few half-guessed facts, as is
so often the case with biographies OF
heroes. There will be many legends
woven around the rich personality of
Colonel Roosevelt, for he was the
kind of man and lived the kind of
life that give rise to legends, but
there is ample real material of the
most romantic sort upon which to
build.
Moreover, Colonel Roosevelt him
self was not a silent man. To use
one of his pet phrases, he was eve
ready to share his purple moods
with the public. And yet, were every
one of his friends and enemies to
write his or her particular story of
acquaintance with him, the accumu-
lated material would still fail to give
a complete picture of the many-sided
life of this great American: his many
activities, his diverse interests, his
occupation with the struggles and
joys of the people that surrounded
him, his aptitude for personal COM
bat, his thirst for adventure into un-
explored regions, his Unsuitable curl
osity about animals and flowers and
unknown, phenomena. AS President
and statesman he ranks with the
Father of Our Country and the Be
loved Liberator, and yet his political
career will never overshadOW his
eminence as an explorer, biologist,
naturalist, and, most of all, as a
notable man of letters.
Therefore l do not feel it amiss to
add to the copious notes of his life
story, ever though | count myself
among the most humble of his many
friends. Ny notes pertain to the last
four years of his life when we were
associated together on the editorial
staff of the metropolitan Maya
zine"
1t was the Colonel's custom to dis
cuss with the editors the subject of
his monthly articles, and, unlike his
brief editorials in the magazine, these
talks were luminously anecdoted.
These sudden dips into a memory
overlooking with personal experience
stories resulted in such inimitable bits
of unpublished history, SUCH delight
full indiscreet vit%uperations against
popular demagogues, that l suggested

NO ADLER JUDGE
IN EITHER COURT
Sincere Tribute to Judge e. L. Water
man, Who Retires Tomorrow from
Superior Court Judgeship.

Editor of The Reformer:-
On Saturday of this week your honored
townsrnan, Judge Waterman, will retire
to private life after a service of y years
on the bench and of Sc years in the pro-
fession of the law. 1t is unusual for he
state to call one to the discharge of ju-
dicial duties after a practice SO long, ex-
tensive, and important as that enjoyed
by Judge Waterman But the results in
his case have justified the selection of a
ripe, experienced lawyer for a position on
the BENCH. SO
Having practieed before Judge Water
man not a little and having been associ-
ated with him for seven years as SUI
perior Judge, | feel that / can speak of
his work with justice and fairness 1t
seems to me that the state has had no
better or ADLER Judge in either court dur
ing his term of Office. In the first place,
ON the business side of court matters,
such as relate to the dispatch of trials
and attention to many details looking to
the saving of the states money, he has
always been the best of us Then as a.
lawyer, fully equipped on the thousand
and one questions that come up for the
decision of the trial Judge, his long ex-
perience and comprehensive learning en-
abled him to readily grasp and easily dis
pose of all questions. Temperamentally.
too, he has been ideal
The old-fashioned conception of the
judge, that he must be grlff, stern, and
indeed savage, is passing away We like
to think OF him as being natural, kindly.
human. 1t Is easier to live and work in
the presence OF such court These quail
tiles Judge Waterman possesses in high
degree, and many a young lawyer who
tried his first case under his sympathetic
guidance win ever bold him in kindly
reverence. Then, too, he appealed more
than the rest of us, ! think, to those who
had to do with the. courts and were not
of the bar--the assistant judges. report
ers, officers and members of the jury. His
kindness, thoughtfulness, and personal
interest IN these was reciprocated by
admiration for the judge. A few days. ago
side judge said to me, That man is a
prince"
HIS charges to the jury were eompre-
henslve, scholarly, and painstaking Every
element of the case was gone into, dis
eussed, and analysed so that the jury
could understand just how the law was
related to the facts that they were to find
These charges We're the result of careful ex-
animation Of the law and Of painstaking
care in statement and were models Of
legal composition.
All of the superior Judges looked to
| Judge Waterman for advice and it was
with genuine sorrow that we learned oil
his intention to retire May his years
be full of comfort and happiness.
: | do not assume to speak for anyone
but myself, but | am sure that the senti
ments expressed will find favor with the

average scores of all samples is shown

This tabulation shows q gam of i 8 In
the creamery butter scores from Jan
nary to December, while the farm dairy
samples made net gain of % in the
same period. The difference in the
market price of butter scoring 81 and

pound. While this gain may seem, to
some to be small, increased returns Of
from 100000 to 100000 annually
would be realized if the quality of all
Vermont creamery butter could be i'm
proved to this extent and if creamery
patrons and the buttermakers viii all
do their part even more than this
amount may be realized.
Many requests have been received at
the cooperative extension headquarters,
where it has been decided to continue
the scorings during 1919, but this year
they will be conducted bi-monthly in
stead of monthly as in 1918. Samples
from creameries and farm dairies will
be received, but they will be placed in
separate classes.
The buttermaker and creamery re-
ceiving the highest score on six samples
will be awarded a sterling silver cup
which has been donated by 4. s. Brig
ham, commissioner of agriculture, and
the cup will become the permanent
property of the buttermaker or cream
cry which first wins it for the second
time. The cup was won IN 1918 by w.
A. Vancour and the Lamoille Valley
creamery. The extension service has
announced that it is expected that ar
rangements will be made whereby it al
so will be possible to award gold, silver
and bronze medals or other suitable
prizes to the creamery muttermakers
ranking first, second. and third in the
