Sunday Sports.


Weed Dickinson, in his Diamond Dust

Morning Telegraph, has the following to
say about Brattleboro:
"Brattleboro, Vermont, is all steamed
up over. the violation of the Sunday law
as applied to sports. They are going to
test the law, advices say, by trying two
golfers, two ball players, a garage keep
er and a couple of merchants.
''Brattleboro has not yet tumbled to
the fact that, being merchant, is no
longer esteemed a sport. Used to be-
but that was before the Pilgrim Fathers
changed the Sunday blue laws so as to
permit of an open season on Indians

Pilgrim Fathers started out with very
strict game laws on Redskins. Could
not shoot Indians on Sunday, though
they We're allowed to break as many OF
the birds as they could during the week
Discovered that the fool Indians didn't
understand the rules, and only visited
them on Sunday Found they could not
repeal the Redskins on this system, SC

Automobile Statistics.
Rutland News

There is one automobile to every l6.2
men, women and children in Vermont.
Numerous as the motor cars are, how
ever, there are 81 states that have a
larger number in proportion to popula-
ton, Nebraska registering first with
one car TO every rs persons. As a gen
eral rule the farming states stand at
the head, proof of the great prosperity
of agriculturists. while the southern
states stand at the foot in the record.
Doubtless, however. when the returns
are all in. the southern states will show
4 decided increase. They ought to, con-
sidering the large percentage of south
erners that have been holding fat offices
under the present administration Then,
too, seriously speaking, there would be
greater demand for automobiles in the
south if the roads were not so execrable
wellnigh impossible, at certain seasons
in the year.

WOMEN BACKING THE SOLDIER
BOYS

When the history of the war mas been
written, the work done by the women
at home will impress itself upon this
nation as few even now realize. Lit
orally, millions of women left their homes
and took up war activities into which
women had never before been called. and
many more at home devoted long hours
at work in knitting and preparing sur
gical dressings for the boys "over there .
Some may have worked at the expense
of health and ares now suffering from
headaches, backaehe. dragging down
pains or some arrangement. 1t should be
remembered that Lydia Z. Pinkham :

years has been restoring such women te

The Republican senators are to be
congratulated on the spirit of conces-
sion shows in the caucus Wednesday tc
nominate officers for the senate. The
selection of Senator Cummins of Iowa
for president of the senate is fitting
recognition of the progressive element
and should promote harmony in the
party councils. The Progressives while
back in the Republican fold are not en-
tirely harmonious and show DISPOSE
ton to dictate party policies. Perhaps
they are too dictatorial in trying t.
commit the party to policies they could
not get indorsed in their appeal to the
country, but they are strong enough t
demand some recognition and old time
Republicans should not attempt to ig
more them. If the Republicans show
ability to successfully manage theiI
! own party there is bright prospect they
will be empowered to manage the affairs
of the country in the next administra
ton.

This is not uttered in a pessimistic
vein. As George Harvey says, Vermont
is mighty good state to live in Not
progressive enough, some say. Well,
responsiveness finds full flower in
North Dakota. where fads and faneies
have eliminated in so-ealled non-par-
tisan league, which promises quite as
wonderful results as do the Bolsheviki,
showing how easy it is to lift oneself
by the bootstraps. New York, too, is
progressive, but see what a mess the
legislature, lately in session at Albany
made of it. Things viii take turn in
Vermont sooner or later but they are
not soabad just now. r
