Happy Memory Precious.

Happy Memory Precious.
In one of Dostoevsky's novels the
hero at the last of the book talking
to some little school fellows who have
learned to love him says: "You must
know that there is nothing higher and
stronger and more wholesome and
good for life in the future than some
good memory, especially memory of
CHILDHOOD, Of home. People talk to
you a great deal about your educa-
ton, but some good, sacred memory,
preserved from childhood, Is perhaps
the best education. If man carries
many such memories with him into
life, he is safe to the end of his days,
and If one has only one good memory
left in ones heart, even that may
sometimes be the means of saving u.s."

Sing, Let Us be Glad!

Last Saturday was a real sum-
mer's day. The warm sun beat on
the fast diminishing snow bank
and the little .brooklet of muddy
water came rushing madly down
the gutter carrying with it into the
sewer a hundred cigar stumps and
other remnants of Winters dist
patton:
We watched in particular how it
yanked and pulled in vain on an
empty bottle that laid near the
curb. But when it realized that
the bottles heft was beyond it's
strength to bulge, 1t began on the
next best thing-wash off the label.
Finally the "Old Crow Bourbon"
trade mark could hold on no longer
and was carried headlong into OBJ
livion.
Even the indurated bloke that we
were we could feel the spell of the
day. And we said to ourselves,
"Thomas," says we, "We're due for
lot of spring poetry about by
Mondays or Tuesdays mail. Now
just wait and see."
Well we got the poetry alright.
Some from people you never dream
ed in the world ever held commun-
ion with the Muse. Here is one
singed H. E.. H. C. written on the
back OF Metropolitan Barber shop
stationery:
"The balmy days Of spring are
here,

Mingling Faith and Fear.
Randolph Herald. J

In introducing Gov. Percival Wood
Clement for the honorary degree of doe
tor of laws, Prof s. F. Emerson said:
n" Government is a kind of providence.
Sometimes it rewards us and then we
are grateful. Sometimes it chastises us
and then we are penitent, and in both
cases 1t deserves recognit,on-recogn
ton for the benefits which it bestows
upon us and for the evils which il does
not inflict And so it is with mingled
feelings of faith and fear that | have
the honor to present the governor of
Vermont, Percival Wood Clement, for
the honorary degree of doctor of laws. ,,

GoMPERs NOT CONVINCING.

President Gompers of the American
Federation of labor in a report filed
with the senate judiciary committee as
serts that prohibition in Detroit, Michi-
gan, has brought about an industrial
situation acute and charged with dan
ger owing to the spread of radicalism
and the deadly doctrines of the indus
trial workers of the world. - He further
says: Gin the year and two months
since prohibition went into effect, the
alteration in Detroit conditions has
been amazing, not to say sinister and
threatening. During the past winter
hundreds of radical meetings have been
held all over the city in various halls
and meeting places and the work of
radical organizations proceeded apace. -
While this statement of industrial
conditions in Detroit may be correct.
people will hardly credit the prohibit
DRY law of the state of Michigan with
being the whole cause of such an unfor-
tunate development. The enactment of
Il prohibitory law and the development
of Bolshevism in this great industrial
center more likely is coincidence than
a case of cause and effect There are
other condolences that Mr.. Gompers
does not credit with being a cause of so
much dangerous radicalism. For in
stance the Ford factory installed the
highest wages for common labor in the
world just little previous to this out
break of radicalism: but it would be a
foolish man who would argue this lib
cral compensation of labor is respon-
slble for present unfortunate conditions.
So far as the wealthy people of De
troit lave stocked their cellars with
choice liquors in anticipation of p.,hi-
bltlon, they have created class bitter
ness between themselves and the labor.
ing man who cannot buy a glass of beer.
But that is condition of inequality de-
veloped previous to the enactment of
the law rather than by the law itself,
andfs the only cause in the prohbitorv
law for the social unrest of the city.
Thinking people will hardly be con
WINGED by Mr.. Gomperss claim that
prohibition is the cause of radical prop

dorse a proposition to drown Bolshe-
vism in beer and highballs.
