The Trail of The Kaiser


Were the trial of the Kaiser to be
held Washington instead of Lon
don, as has been announced, it would
likely take place at the famous War
College located within mile of the
Capitol Building on point of land
which projects to the potomac River
and where at one time, the statue o
Frederick the Great. which was pre-
sented by the Kaiser to the United
States during the Roosevelt occu-
pancy of the White House, stood be-
fore its removal was ordered by the
Government shortly after the United
States entered the war. Intense in
terest is being manifested in Washing
ton as to the ordeal that the Kaiser
will soon have to face. Many Sena-
tors have announced that they plan
to give special attention to this par
ticular part of the peace treaty when
it is taken up by the Senate, and they
expect that the President will have
something to tell them on the subject
that has been discussed in France. 1t
is pointed out that if Holland refuses
to give up the Kaiser for trail, upon
The request of the allied Powers, large
y because the trail would be held in
Europe, that the Dutch Government
you'd change its views if the promise
WIS made that the trail would be held
in the United States. No official
has been made that Chef Jus
tice White will sit at the trail court,
if it is held abroad, and nothing def
mite as to justices or accusers can be
announced until after the peace trea
ty is placed before the Senate.

Now that the Army has taken over
the educational work in France, form
erly in charge Of the Y. M. G. A,
many "Y" secretaries engaged in that
feature have become members of the
Army, although nominally a part OF
the "Y' system.
An educational feature which is at.
tracing considerable attention among
the doughboys just now is that on
vocational guidance. A group of men,
of whom Professor H. R. Harper OF
Boston University is one, is touring
the camps and is meeting with great
success. They go to an outfit, hold
a mass session at first, followed later
by group sessions and, finally, person
al interviews with the men, the sub
iect being along the lines Of the future
IF each soldier. The plan is to get
hem to realize that they should return
10 their homes with a fixed purpose in
life-"not just to take any old job they
IAN get" as one member Of the teach

According to reports of an official
lgtaro this plan is working well and
many soldiers daily are expressing

William r. Hayward Of Rutland
aged 81 years, very we'll known in
Rutland and surrounding towns as a
chef and notable for his skill in pre-
pairing clambakes and banquets, was
found dead in a brook nearly mile
from hishouse by James Fiske, nei-
ghbor. 1t is believed that the death
was caused by heart trouble, from
which Mr.. Hayward had suffered. Mr..
Hayward left his home shortly after
five o'clock to go after his cows. The
cows came home, but Mr.. Hayward
was not with them and when his ab-
sence became prolonged Mrs. Hay
ward became alarmed and secured as
sistance Of neighbors and went to
look for him. His body was discover

A new member has found it's plac

A new member has found its place
among the collection of animals in
the geological garden of political par
ties, according to the prohibition ad-
vocates that hold forth at the Nat
ions Capitol. The grand old party
has its elephant; the Democrats
stand by their famous donkey; the
Independent Republicans adopted
the bull moose as their emblem, and
row comes the camel to enter the fold
as representing the Prohibition par
ty. 1t is an animal that we'll typifes
what the party represents, as the
camel originated in desert country
where it was always dry. 1t is be-
lieved that if the Soldiers and Sail
ors party is formed, that it will adopt
the American eagle as an emblem,
thus adding further to this wonderful
geological collection.

There is now much comment in the
papers about the possibilities of avia-
ton. We predict that, within ten
years, there will be regular air routes
between the principal cities of the
United States and between this Con-
tinent and the Eastern Hemisphere.
Travelling will be at the rate of one
hundred and fifty miles per hour; and
the most interesting problem now
confronting the States and the Gen
eral Government is, to establish avia-
ton fields for the fliers and rules
governing the actual fling.

Camp Abnaki Notes


On Monday, June 80, Camp Alb
MAXI was opened for the nineteenth
season of it's history. The advance
party had been on hand since June
81, getting ready for the coming of
the boys. The season has started
with a rush. Usually there have
been about 40 boys in camp during
the first week, but this year, at the
beginning of the second week, there
are III in camp, and 25 more are
to arrive this week. The season
promises to be record breaker.
The first event of special interest
was dinner given by the camp to
the soldiers of North Hero who have
returned from service There was a
good attendance of the soldiers, as
we'll as few OF the local men, and
and the campers. Chef Ames serv-
ed fine dinner, and the evening was
spent around the big fireplace in the
wigwam, where the soldiers related
their experiences in America and
France. A group photograph was
taken Of the soldiers.
AS usual, safe and sane celebra-
ton of July was held. At two o.
clock the campers all assembled in
front of the long House for the de-
dication of the new flag pole. 1t is
rs feet high, made of steel, and was
set up by A. E. Wakefield. 1t is the
gift of Foster R. Clement, of Bur-
lington. Mn. Clark spoke of Mr..
Clements interest in the camp and
announced the gift. He also spoke
of the four flags which always fly at
Fench, and Abnaki representing the
nations which have owned the island
of North Hero. The campers salut-
ed; the cannon was fired; the flags
were run up by Foster R. Clement,
Jr., and David Loudon. Robert
Platka read the Declaration of In
dependence, and the camp orchestra
played. Then came the dedication
of the Abnaki Y. M. G. A. service
flag, with it's 10 red triangles, for the
Abnaki campers who are to have
been in the Y. M. C. A. service in
the great war. America was sung
in closing. Then there was an in
teresting baseball game between
the leaders and the boys, the former
winning by sore Of II to 8. In the
evening there was fine display of
fireworks, set off on the swimming
float.
The ninth volume of "The Alma
XII Herald" has been begun by the
issue Of July 7. Monday forenoon
the campers were vry much interest
ed to see an aeroplane above them.
It was the first one ever seen at Abb
MAXI, and probably the first one ever
seen at North Hero.
On Sunday the first church service
was held, Secretary Clark being the
speaker. At the vesper service he
read long letter just received from
Ernest Rand, an Abnaki camper who
is now Y. M. C. A. Secretary in
Russia.
The Abnaki American Railway Elk
press office is open for the season,
and all Rutland Railroad train stop
at the camp on signal. The campers
are already beginning to earn their
Abnaki emblems, banners, and other
honors. A fine Camp Abnaki seal
has been painted for the camp by

right at home with the rest of the
family, have all the comforts of home
and spend their vacation money right
in their own horne town. In addition
to this money the town gains from the
Chautauqua, because every member OF
1t who comes here spends money here.
Therefore the Chautauqua brings
money to the town and keeps money
here. Our best advice to everyone Is
to take the whole family down to the
big brown tent next week and enjoy
together the most delightful and prof
liable vacation that can be obtained
anywhere.

FL PASO AUTO SHOW WILL
 BE GREAT AND GLORIOUS

Motorists in and around Flagstaff are evidencing great interest in the coming automobile show to be held in Liberty Hall, Fl Paso, May 8, 9, and 10, according to Babbitt Bros., local motor merchants.
 Several Flagstaff motor car owners are already planning to attend the affair, predicted to be the most pre- tentious of it's kind ever given in the Southwest.
 "From the information we have re- ceived the Fl Paso show will rank among the finest in the United States" MT. Verkamp said recently. "As a matter of fact it will excel many by virtue of it's extra features alone. Aside from the exhibition of new car models and tractors, the head liner attraction will be George Presley Geake, the famous tenor soloist of the Metropolitan grand opera company of New York. He will sing every after noon and evening during the three days of the show. Other musical feat ures will include the Juarez garrison military band, which has been secured

ARIZONA AUTOISTS
 PAYING BIG TRIBUTE
Large Sum of Money Goes to Govern ment Each Year from Motorists
 of This State

PHOENIX, May 2.-It may be con- sidered notable that Arizona, with next to the smallest white population among the states of the Union, pays more money for automobile license fees than any one of the states of Rhode Island, Nevada, Wyoming, Mis- sissippi, Kentucky or New Mexico. Last years receipts for Arizona auto licenses aggregated $142,827. There were registered 23,905 motor vehicles and 6S5 motorcycles, valued respec- lively at $8,202, ,965 and s39,327.
 Maricopa county, including the city of Phoenix, is far in the lead from a motor car standpoint, with 8,340 reg istered. Then follow Cochise, 3,621 Gila, 2,117; Yavapai, 1906; Pima, 1874, and Yuma, 1927. The least number in the fourteen counties is within Apache county, 254.
 The licenses thus far issued this year already exceed in number those taken out last year. The counties will derive larger revenue, as it will be necessary hereafter to show receipt for county taxes on an automobile be- fore the secretary of state will issue a license number to the machine.

 Another appealing attraction at this motor carnival will be dancing every evening from 9:30 o'clock until midnight. Approximately 5000 square feet of floor space has been arranged between the various booths for this purpose alone.
 "The gala date will be Society Night May 9. Reports from Fl Paso indicate that practically every social set in the city will be represented at this formal function in honor of His Majesty The Automobile.' Twenty of the most beautiful society girls of the city have been chosen to appear for the various exhibits. The governors of Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, together with the leading military men of the Panhandle, have been in vited as special guests of honor on this occasion.
 "I expect to attend the show if noth- ing unforeseen occurs," MT. Verkamp said. q advise every one who can to attend. It will prove trip of excep- tional educational and pleasureable value."

WILL BUILD TRAILS
 IN FOREST REGIONS

MISSOULA, Mont, April 26.-Dis- trict Forester R. H. Rutledge has re- ceived word from Washington, D. C., announcing that allotments for trail work in the national forests include $75,000 for Montana and $120,000 for Idaho, available immediately.
 This will permit of the construction of 30 miles of trail in the national forests of Montana and of nearly 800 miles in the Idaho forests included in District No. 1, it being estimated that the cost of construction of trails for protective purposes is S250 a mile.
 In addition, an allotment has been made for the building of public high ways with funds from the Bankhead appropriation, without thr necessity of obtaining co-operatio nm the state and counties affecte The full amount of this allotment as not been determined as yet, but it will be com pleted in time to begin work this spring.
 According to the district forester the trail construction work will neces- sitate the employment of large mum. Der of men, including engineers with practical qualifications, good construc, tion foremen and other skilled workers in addition to unskilled labor.

TIRE REPAIR SCHOOL

This years classes in the tire repair school maintained by the B. F. Good rich Rubber Co.,, are the largest in the history of the school. Besides the actual experience at the bench and the vulcanizer under the guidance and in. struction of experts, students of the Goodrich school are given lectures on special subjects that apply to the sue. cessful operation of a garage-adver. Using, salesmanship, bookkeeping business correspondence, etc.
 Each student in the school com. pletes all the operations in tire repair himself and does not work in "part. nership" with another student. He must learn to successfully and eff. ciently master every phase of repair work unaided, except by the instruc, tors. The next class in the school which is open to any one contemplat. ing entering the tire repair business starts on April 2S. Application should be addressed to any Goodrich branch or to the factory at Akron, Ohio.

RETURNING SOLDIERS
 DEMANDING MACHINES
Exacting Conditions at Front Demon strate True Value of Peace
 Time Product

Materials as we'll as men were trained to the elastic limit in France. Up Front, in the area of defense, war crosses and citations testified to the work of men. Behind in the quieter areas of s. o. S. machines did their work just as capably, yet there were none to cite their praises.
 And so, while the legislators back home were raising the academic ques- ton as to whether the motor car was a luxury or necessity, automobiles were proving their worth under the most exacting conditions. "For want of a nail-the battle was lost" was once a good excuse. But defective spark plug or a leaky piston ring can dare assume no such responsibility to- day. Motor cars in France were given their job and no extenuating circum- stances were recognized.
 So, instead of crosses and citations, letters from overseas are arriving daily, pencil scrawled or formally typewriter, as the case may be. The following excerpt was recently re- ceived from Lieut.. Col. J. B. bowman, U. S. A.:
 Although I have used Cadillacs for a great many years and have always been enthusiastic about them, 1 really did not appreciate them until saw what they were doing on the Western Front. I was fortunate in being able to have one for short time. Owing to the fact that every other officer wanted one and there were not enough to go around, could not have as much as I wished"
