A LESSON OF THE TRAGEDY.

1t is said there are sermons in stones.
! 1t may be true, but there are sermons in
life which are not real sermons to be
sure, but which are preached with ire
mendously telling effect. There has oc-
Cured recently in Barre one of those
sermons 1t involves the life and the
death of young woman, the mother OF
three children and the matron of com
Portable home, if not home luXuriously
furnished This woman had made
friends during her comparatively short
residence in Barre and she had the chance
to make great many friendships of the
better sort, for there were those who
were ready and pleased to lend them
selves to that sort of aequaintanceship.
| We know little Of the domestic life Of
the household over which she presided,
but there is reason to believe that that
home life was not measurably different
from the home life of countless other
people in the world albeit there may
have been some differences between the
two adult members thereof There APP
parently was nothing which could not
have been bridged over or completely
eliminated so that the home life could
| have been maintained, the welfare of
| the three children looked after and out
side and harmful influences banished en-
| tirely. Yet there seem to have crept in
some of those harmful influences, just
how much no one except those in the
circle of intimate friends and acquain-
tances is in position to judge; but from
a study of the case one is led to believe
that those harmful influences led more
or less directly to the tragedy of last
Saturday night and the wiping out of a
human life and the placing of an inerad
cable stain OF murder on the hands of
one or mere persons.
| Had those outside and harmful inau
ences been Stunned at the outset or had
they been thrust aside after they had
once got their firm hold, the tragic fate
would have been averted and the brand
of Cain would not have been affixed on
the brow of her slayers. We hesitate to
speak of these things in this manner;
but the moral of the events of Saturday
night is so pointed that we feel that we
would be remiss in orr duty were we
not to say that the lesson of the crime is
tremendous and should have a tremen-
dously power influence on the lives and
actions of those people of both sexes
who may be inclined to be careless in
their choice of friends and acquaintance
Especially is this applicable to girls and
! young women who are inclined TO be too
free in their actions on the street, even
though the actions may be nothing more
than slight fiirtations or seemingly harm
less lettering That sort of thing ought
| to be avoided, not because of the direct
wrong attached to it but because it
causes those girls or young women TO be
marked by dissolute characters of both
sexes and to be subjected later on to in
dignities and worse happenings if the
trend is not stopped Immediately. There
is absolutely no doubt of this, and the
girls and young women who care to
maintain their selfrespeet, to say moth
ing Of reputation and, perhaps, life
should consider carefully before they en-
ter upon any seemingly harmless actions.

The American trans Atlantic flyers are
now brought to realization Of the
iickleness of the spring weather, just as
their British cousins have experienced it
for some weeks To undertake such a
tremendous experiment as fight across
the Atlantic, or even flight from a
point near New York to Nova Scotia, is
something which the flyers hesitate to
do unless all the contributing natural
agencies are favorable, because the hui.
man agencies are SO prone to weakness
that they alone are enough to keep one
guessing

The proposal has been advanced in
Rutland that the Salvation Army should
take over the saloons that are to be va
Gated July and conduct them for the
sale of coffee, doughnuts and soft drinks,
The idea of providing places Where men
can congregate and secure harmless re-
freshment is good, but it would be scarce
ly feasible for the Salvation Army or
any other organization to take over all
the saloons which are to be vacated at
the expiration of the liquor selling re,
gime, The Salvation Army could not
be expected to conduct a chain of doz-
en- or fifteen stores in single small city /;
and that is what the proposal would
amount to. One or two food and soft
drink depots would be plenty for place
of the size of Rutland.

The supreme effort at concerted action
by bolshevism seems to have been made
on May |, with the sending out Of more
than score of deadly bombs to per-
sons prominent in public life and in the
holding of Haunting parades in all the

Prompt discovery of the bombs and the
exercise of force nipped both efforts al.

REGULAR DIVIDENDS

The regular quarterly dividend Of
IL per cent on the common and pre-
ferred stock Of the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company was de-
clared yesterday by the directors.
Because Of the decrease in the net
earnings Of the company during the
last three months, there was some
anxiety on the part OF holders OF com
mon stock as TO whether the fun
dividends would be paid. The com
pany has a surplus fund OF more than
100000 and the deficit was made up
by drawing upon this fund.
The capital stock OF the company II
given as $4,000. 900, OF which Ss.5O0.-
600 is common stock and SS.5OO.Ooo
preferred. The quarterly dividend on
the common stock amounts to $S1, go.
and the preferred dividend amounts %
$1O6.25O.

medal of honor which the District is

| When the four registration booths
closed last Saturday night approx

mittee in charge of the medals had

| ceive the medals, and for the benefit
of those who had not registered 1t
was decided to keep the armory open
all this week.
Registration since Monday has been
| slow. however. and, unless it picks
up in the next few days, indications
are that many of those entitled to the
| medals will not get them.
The committee believes that there
are still hundreds of Washington men
! who have not returned from camps.
and is urging the relatives of these
| men to write for a medal to Capt. E.
| H. Grove. Room IL. District building
Relatives of men who died In the
