The Publicity Bureau of the State
Will Make Interesting Exhibit
at the Vermont State Fair
A state fair should be instructive,
and the members of the Vermont
State Fair commission are going to
about the preparation for the Yer
mont State Fair this year with this
idea upermost in mind.
One exhibit that will be of especi-
al interest not only to the people of
the state but to visitors from other
states as well, when the dates of
September 9, 10, II and II arrive,
which is the time of holding the fair
at White River Junction, will be that
Of the Publicity Bureau, which is a
department in the office of Harry A.
Black, Secretary of State. This De-
partment was created in 1910 with a
small appropriation, but the results
were so pronounced the first two
years that the legislature doubled the
appropriation and up to this time the
work has been moving forward with
most gratifying results.
The chef purpose of the bureau
is to interest the people of other
states to come to Vermont for their
summer vacations and in this respect
It's efforts have been rewarded be-
yond expectations. Thousands of
people from other commonwealth
as result of the advertising and
publicity work done by the bureau,
have enjoyed the delightful summers
in the Green Mountain State. But
the bureau has engaged itself in 9th
er lines. 1t has advertised Vermont
farms for sale and as a result many
farms in the state have been sold
to outsiders, even to farmer resi-
dents in the far western states. 1t
has also interested hortculturists in
the apple lands of the state. In
dustrially Vermont has been called
to the attention of the outside
world.
The literature gotten out by the
bureau has been very attractive. 1t
has shown that Vermont ranks high
est among the states in many re-
spects. The purpose is to forge ahead
with truthful description of the state
and convince the people of all the
! states that advantage is to be found
by living in Vermont, for recreation
n summer and permanently as a
home and investment commonwealth.
Since the creation of the bureau
many booklets, folders, cards, ETC.,
been issued. All these will be dis
played at the fair, together with
data of every description showing
how the appropriations have been
spent and the results that have beer
obtained.
The exhibit will be in charge OF
Walter H. rocket, who has been con.
nected with the bureau for the past
six years. He will be pleased to en-.
terrain with full information all Wis
itors to the exhibit.
The executive committee of the
state Fair commission is continuing

When we consider the immense
number of soldiers of the Regular
Army, West Point graduates, and
men especially trained for courage
and speed recently among the Euro
pean forces in France, it seems so
strange that an unlettered boy from
the mountains of Tennessee should
return to America the champion
fighter of them all; and stranger is it
that he had no record of merit be-
fore going and was a conscientious
objector to Military Service.
Sergeant York has covered him
self and his country with a halo of
glory which will increase as years
go on.
What does Ireland want? Will
some we'll informed person please
state? It currently stated that she
wants freedom.
There seems to be no reason why
Ireland should not have the same
Government as Canada which is
practically Independent. 1t is re-
ported however, that part of the in
habitants want independence, and
the balance prefer to remain as they
are, If they can't agree, how do
they expect a solution elsewhere?
What would Of happened to Ire
land during The recent conflict if
it had not been for the British Navy?
The undaunted Navy of Great Brit
ain is as necessary to Ireland as to
any other colony; and, without it,
she might go to oblivion most any
time.

MANY WOUNDED AMERICANS
STILL IN NANTES, FRANCE

Hostilities ceased seven months
ago, but there are still several thous-
and American doughboys in the mill
tary hospitals of France, most of
them too i'll to stand the journey
home. The hospital center at Nantes
is one of the largest remaining in
France, and contains between 1000
and 1900 patients. The way in
which the men pass their time and
the efforts put forth to make their
lot more comfortable and bearable
are typical of those at other places.
The Red Cross hut is the center of
all entertainment and recreational
activities. With all its variety of
features, the one which has main
tanned the steadiest and greatest pop
ulority is the library. From its rec
ords can be gained fairly good idea
of the trend of the minds and
thoughts of these less fortunate men
of the American Expeditionary For
ces. Co-indident with the healing of
their bodies these doughboys are i'm
proving their minds. Books on bank
ing craftsmanship psychology, and
technical subjects are in the greatest
demand
The Red Cross workers devote
many hours daily to visiting bed
patients in the wards, distributing
books and magazines and various
comforts. In the past four weeks the
Red Cross gave to these men 100000
900 cigarettes, 1900 comfort bags,
$50 pairs of socks, $40 handker-
chiefs, /, 500 tubes of tooth paste and
large quantities of fruit, chocolate,
tobacco, gum, shaving and toilet ar
ticles, slippers, towels and games.
The daily output of the Red Cross ice
cream is now abont 500 portions.
The Canteen serves lemonade, dough-
nuts, tarts and cookies.

HoPPERS MAY DIE

A. H. Boyer, federal entomologist,
with headquarters at Wichita, was a
visitor in Finney county the fore part
of this week, in the interest of an ex-
pertinent with spreading disease
among the grasshoppers that they
might be eradicated. On July Is Mr..
Boyer came to this county and with
County Agent Cassel placed $50 cul-
lures of bacteria on the Weiss and
Hate ranches west of town. Tuesday
they placed $50 more cultures on the
Weiss ranch. This is an experiment
of the government and while the pro-
cess has been proven a success under
conditions, only fair re-
suits have been obtained in the field
work. The bacteria that is being
used in the experiment here is of two
kinds. The result of the experiment
will be watched with great deal Of
by the farmers and ranch
men of the western part of this state,
as it would surely be Godsend to
the country if it should prove a sue
cess, thus enabling us to eliminate
the grasshopper pest from the coun-
try by spreading a disease among
them that would prove fatal.-Gar-
den City Telegram.

GIVE UP ALL HOPES OF
HOLDING LAND OFFICE

The government land office will
close its doors on the evening Of Sat
urday, August 30th to open no more.
The effects will be moved to Topeka,
where they will be consolidated with
the land office there. The official
notice Of the closing, issued by Clay
Tallman, commissioner of the gen
efal land office at Washington, is
published in this issue of the Journal.
Efforts have been made by the
people all over the southwestern cor
ner of the state to have the office
continued here for at least another
year, as it will be inconvenient and
expensive for the homesteaders to go
to Topeka to file their proofs of
homestead, but their plea fell on deaf
ears.
Neither R. r. Wilson, register, nor
receiver, Killion has made any plans
for the future. Mr.. Wilson has been
with the office here the past five
years.-Dodge Journal.

NOT ALL SHOES ARE COSTLY.

New York, July 25.-Persons who
want good shoes will not necessarily
have to pay $40 to $25 a pair for
them this fall, as some retailers are
predicting, is the view of Wendell
Endicott, of the Endicott- johnson
Corporation, one of the largest manu-
facturers of shoes in the world. Ser
viceable dress shoes of high grade
leather, he said today, may be had at
prices ranging from Sc to So pair.
Mems working shoes can be bought
from Sd to Sc pair.
~ do not doubt" Mr.. Endicott
said, chat shoes will be as high as
$40 or $25 in some stores next fall.
They are the class of shoes that sold
for SIG and $1S a pair last year. A
man does not have to pay such high
prices unless he wants to. There are
plenty Of good shoes on the market
at reasonable. rates, and the con-
sumer who goes to the right places
can get good foot wear at prices well
within his Vleans."
Mr.. Endicott emphasized the ne
cessity of searching for the places
where prices are within ones means.

There are now between eight and

lectures, was given last night by Miss
Janet Richards before the Teachers
Club at the Mt. Vernon Place Meth

phasized the significance of the recent
coal strike and said that il it had
been continued, it would have had the
same paralyzing effect on this coun-
try as If our soldiers had laid down
their arms while in France. She
pointed out the reasons why the gov
ernment took the drastic measure of
a writ of Injunction, and explained
the working Of this form of law.
In peace time, said Miss Richards.
this would have been considered a

miners that the war was not yet over.
that winter was coming on and that
he would consider it an unlawful act
against the government. such meas
ures were necessary to curb the men,

that the miners had a tremendous
strike fund to tide them over the time
when they were not working, but that
the injunction prevented them from
distributing q cent of this money.
She stated that the United States

to whatever bolshevik movement
there might be in this country.
Miss Richards also touched on pro-
hibition, and said that one reason
the miners and soldiers did not quar-
rel was because there was no whisky
around. She also said that in her lee
ture tour of ten cities in this country
she had asked many prominent busi-
ness men the effect and cause of pro-
hibition. Invariably, said Miss Rich
