November the Biggest Ratifi-
cation Month since June

Harvest is in and special ses-
sions are on in the West:
Following hard upon similar
announcements from Idaho,
California, Nevada, Colorado,
Governor Lynn J. Frazier has
just wired the National Ameri-
can Woman Suffrage Associa-
ton that he has set November
25th as the date for North Da-
kota's special session to ratify
the Federal Suffrage Amend
ment.
This makes the 9th state to
set November date for it's
special session and insures that
there will be more notifications
in November than in any other
one month, except June since
the Senate passed the Amend
ment. In June nine states rat
fled, four in July, one in Au-
gust, three in September.
The six states scheduled for
ratification in November are
the five Western States, North
Dakota, Idaho, California, Col
orado, Nevada, and one New
England state, Maine. Of the
six governors who have met
the Nationals plea for special
session in November five Re-
publicans and one is a Demo-
crat. The six November rati-
fication will bring the total
number of ratified states to %.

A Vermont Collector Finds Re-
markable Treasures in a
Summer Ramble Among
Towns of the. Green Mount
ain State.

One year ago, on Nov. 10, 19,
| 20 and FL, Charles e. futile Of
the printing and publishing
house of the futile Company
of Rutland, w., held a sale Eat
| Libbie's auction.rooms, in Bos-
ton, of an astonishing collect
ion of Vermontiana, collected
in summer ramble through
the Green Mountain State. It
was a remarkable sale, both
for the material offered and the
prices realized, and enriched
alike the Library of Congress
and other collections, as we'll as
the vendor.
Now Mr.. futile has been
securing the country again, and
exactly one year from the first
sale one of the last great aucf
tions of G. F. Libbie & Co. will
be held in this city, when an
other portion of the futile A
mericans will be dispersed. The
catalogue includes nearly three
thousand lots, of which more
than one-half are items of YER
montana, comprising such i'm
pOrtant items as Sanders "In-
dian Wars" Samuel Robinsons
Bible and broadside newspa-
per extra distributed in Bur-
lington a few hours after Com
modore Macdonough's victory
on Lake Champlain. Mr.. Tut
tie spent the last summer in Wis
iting country towns remote
from railroad stations and went
through hundreds of Libraries
and attics, securing a collection

which rarely come u pin auc-
which rarely come u pin auc-
lions. That he was able to Sc
cure so many items not in pre-
vious sales is astonishing. In
the catalogue there are no few
err than $50 Masonic and Anti
Masonic items, but it will be
remembered that Vermont was
the hot-bed of anti-Masonic ex-
element, and that her delegat-
es placed William Writ on the
ticket as anti-Masonic candi-
date for President of the Unit
ed States. A large quantity of
the anti Masonic literature of
Vermont was destroyed, how
ever, land some of the items cat
alogued are of extreme rarity.

CHANGE IDEAS ON HIGHWAYS
Manufacturing Public No Longer Re.
CARDS Good Roads as Speedways
for Fortunate Neishbors.

The public's conception of "good
roads" has undergone radical change
In the last two years.
Prior to the entry Of the United
States into the world war, the non-
motoring American public, more often
than not, thought good roads were adj
vocated chiefly for the benefit of their
more fortunate neighbors who owned
and drove their own motor cars,
writes &c. A. Williams, Jr., president
of large motor truck company. They
were inclined to regard good roads
laws as class legislation and were I'M
willing for the most part to lend either
financial or moral support to the con-
struction and upkeep of something
from which they derived no direct
benefits so far as they could see.
The war merely fastened what
leaders of the industry had foreseen
for several years; it furnished the set
ting and the conditions which enabled
the truck to establish itself as fac
tor in the economic life of the coun-
try.
The non-motoring public no longer
looks upon good roads as "speedways"
for the motoring "aristocracy." 1t has
come to realize that motor trucks
are essential as transportation factors
and that good roads are necessary to
the efficient operation of trucks. Its
vision has been broadened; 1t sees the
advantages and benefits which accrue
from combination of these factors
benefits which have a direct bearing
upon the economic conditions of the
community.
1t sees the farm brought, one might
say, to the very table of the consumer;
1t sees an ultimate decrease in food
prices; and, those who pause to con-
slider the matter further, see the ever
expanding range of possibilities of the
truck and its ally, good roads.
With the universal recognition and
adoption of the motor truck the pub
lic's conception Of how roads should
be built also has undergone change.
Heretofore there has been a vast Diff
ference between the average mans
Idea of good roads and that of the
experienced engineer. The average
man was content TO build for the pres
emit: the engineer, as result of past
and not altogether satisfactory exper-

Ideal Bed for InvaIrds.

In view of the elaborate care with
which most details of sick nursing
have been worked out, 1t is more than
a little curious that the maintenance
of the patients warmth in bed should
have been left so long to the precari
GUS ministry of the hot-water bottle
At the Treloar Cripples' hospital. Al
ton, England, two wards are now sup
piled with electric mattresses. which
have proved both safe and convenient
in practice, even when child is the
occupant of the bed. The mattress Is
differentialIy heated. and the heating
element is SO disposed that the maxi
mum warmth is generated at the foot
end, less in the middle and none at all
at the head end.

fence, knows and has known the I'M
portance of building for the future
as well as the present.
The first thing railroad does after
obtaining a right-of-way, as everyone
knows. Is to build roadbed and lay
tracks, That roadbed is put In to
stay. The track, which corresponds
to the surface of the highway, is built
Of the most substantial and practical
material to be had.
The railroad officials, however. do
not expect this roadbed and track to
last forever without attention. Long
ago they learned that the only w1y
to assure safety and durability is to
anticipate depreciation and make con-
slant repairs.
That is just what we are coming to
in road building. For years it has been
customary Eor county engineers to
direct such operations but for the
most part their work has been ham,
pered by lack of funds, and made
quate force or by limited legislation
and more or less red tape. There are
some states in which farmers are still
working out their road tax by the day,
hauling gravel or stone in more or
less haphazard fashion, for the con-
struction Of roads: upon their efforts
and those Of limited force Of hired
workers depends the maintenance Of
the community's highways.
