The Willoughby lake development
is noted and commented upon by the
papers of the state quite generally as
something of promise, while too
many persons so close to the devel-
opment as to make it impossible for
them to escape the benefits of its ex-
istence, fail to appreciate it.

The ignorance of the average Yer
monter regarding the history of his
state and especially of his town is as
founding. st. Johnsbury schools have
been paying especial attention to
state and local history in the past
year and are receiving much favorable
comment upon the idea. Local in
dustries even have been studied in the
matter of their development, the use
and distribution of local products and
the influence these local industries
have upon the town. Such matters
are certainly of more vital impor-
lance to the average person than to
know all the inside of Roman history.
Scarcely a community in Vermont is
lacking in bacterial for study that
would breed inter-A in and respect
for the old Green Mountain state and
might easily tend to induce our young
people to remain at home and devel-
op the resources at hand.

There is said to have been invented
but recently a gas, called "Lewisite"
composition, so destructive that a
dozen airplanes carrying the gas and
dropping 1t over a city the size of
Berlin would completely DESTROY
every living thing therein, both ami
nal and vegetable. It is even said
that single days output of this aw-
full product, which was actually being
manufactured in this country when
the armistice was signed, would make
New York a vast city of inaanimate
things. If this is true would our
government allow such a weapon to
be used even against the Hun
II such a thing Is possible the
formula for its production should be
destroyed and the secret of it be
jealousy guarded by the government

OF such terrible destruction has no
useful place in the world and If il ev-
er came into the hands of wicked and
degraded men would be means of IN

that the war is over let the world
turn its attention and its genius TO
the production of new things. TO Gre

ing down, and let Us forget those
things which were great in war be-
cause they did destroy It's a new

1t looks as though all efforts of the
liquor interests to stampede con-
gress and the people to a repeal of
the prohibition law which takes effect
July 1 in order to conserve grains,
would fail and that old John Barley
corn's days were very limited. In all
those persons whom the writer has
heard defend our wet laws not one Of
them has defended the licensed sa-
loon on his own account, but on ac-
count of the other fellow. Those
hordes of indefinite, uncounted, un-
located, faraway individuals, who
have always had and actually need
their toddy is where the trouble will
come, they say. ''This town will get
along all right" say these persons,
"and as for me, / don't need it, and
never was tied to it, BUT, i tell you,"
and then comes plea for the other
fellow. Always the other fellow, the
other town, the unnamed, unknown,
unrecorded someone, somewhere, is to
make the trouble, is the universal ar
gument. So perhaps after all, since
it is not the fellows we know or the
town we live in that is to suffer, the
coming of prohibition will not be so
bad as it is wont TO be pictured by
those who advocate the present re-
gime.

reinsman, piloted two winners yester-
day IN the weekly matinee meeting of
the Parkway Driving Club on it's track
in Brooklyn. Aronson directed George
Cordens, his star bay stallion, to an
other victory, winning two out of three
heats against Grand Chimes, a bay
mare driven by L. Gerwitz, and r.
Smith. George Cordens garnered the
first and third heats.
Josephine B., bay filly, another of
Aronson's horses, defeated Jim Becker,
bay colt, driven by M. Hully, in the
same fashion as his stablemate. In
the final heat the best time of the
brush was made. Josephine B. won
both of her heats in easy fashion.

Frank T. Anderson, the playing
through champion in the Long Island
championship lawn tennis tournament
being held on the clay courts of the
Kings County Tennis Club of Brook
lyn, lost his title yesterday afternoon
when he was defeated by S. Howard
Voshell in the semi final round of the
singles. Voshell won at 3-6, 6--3,
6-1, and will meet Franks brother,
Fred c. Anderson, this afternoon for
the championship.
The latter defeated Charles Cham
bers in the other semi-final, by score
Of Ga, Cd. Chambers had previously
defeated Henry Mollenhauer at 6-2,
10-8, while rank Anderson, before
facing Voshell, had won a desperately
fought match from the veteran H. L.
Westfall by score Of 1O-S, 7--5, and
this undoubtedly took something away
from his speed in the latter match.
The doubles also reached into the
final round, with Fred C. Anderson

Hunter Eliminates
Behr in Play for
The Tribune Cup

field of 103 players began opera
tions in the mems singles yesterday
afternoon in the annual open lawn ten
mis- tournament for the North Side
championship and possession of the
big Tribune challenge cup, won last
year by Frank Ts Anderson, who is
playing through in defence of his title
One of the feature matches of the
day was that between Francis T. Hunt
er, who has two legs on the cup, and
Allen Behr. Hunter won at 81, Go,
playing game in which rushing the
net and smashing and driving in me-
teoric fashion were the outstanding
characteristics.
The presence of Embree Henderson
in the role of foot-fault judge seemed
to f1uster Behr considerably, and he
was never able to work into the full
stride of his game on that account.
Hunter used his tremendous forehand
drives as entering wedges in Behrs de-
fence, behind which he followed in to
the net position, to finish off his points
and deadly smashing.
Behr took the third game of the
match, and that was his only shred
of comfort, as Hunter won the next
ten in row, for the match
Alex Her, the tall ex-gob, who re-
Gently battled S. Howard Voshell to a
bitterly contested draw match of forty
ship, was . winner in the opening
round, eliminating A. w. Caruso at
So, Cd. This Caruso is not a
Metropolitan tenor, but he played a
sufficiently good game of tennis to keep
Her on the go, and although the latter
always held command from the back
of the court Caruso gave him lot
of practice.
William M. Fischer defeated Albert
J. Ostendorf, who recently returned
from overseas, by a score of 10-S, Ga.
Ostendorf is naturally shy of practice,
but his old familiar style of storming
the net and "killing" lobs was well
coined on the courts, even though he
did not always have control, whereas
Fischer used his fine passing shots to
great advantage.
Another who gained fame on the clay
courts yesterday was F. P. A., who
crushed B. G. Meyer by a score of
6-1, GO, in match that found the
famous "Conning Tower hitting the
ball harder than ever he did in his
youthful days. He made the base line
his "last line" almost from start to
finish, being satisfied to gain his points
by passing his opponent with cunning
ly placed line drives.
