Vermont's Reputation as High-Priced
State

Dldlc.
II viii be somewhat startling to the
| average Vermonter to be informed that
Nermonts reputation through the Middle
West is that it is one of the highest
priced places in the East in which to
tour. Nevertheless this is the view ex
pressed by Chicago automobile tourist
who finds by experience that the impress
sion Is mistake. Certainly, Vermonters
are additionally fair. They do not over
reach when it comes to entertaining Wis
itors from abroad 1t will come to them
as distinct shock that the reputation
OF the state even to limited degree is
that tourists are gouged here. But the
publication Of the statement ought to re.
suit in the redoubling of efforts upon the
part OF all hotel keepers, farmers and
resort owners to treat Hospitality and
fairly all guests, because reputation of
this KIND is a positive asset and leads to
growing business. Rutland News.
