Don't Laugh At Them.
burlington News.)

Some of the comments which we have
noted in connection with the recent meet
ing at Montpelier to form a permanent
road organization are neither truthful nor
fair
A certain amount of unpopularity at
tached to the Patrol committee in thai
1t was engineered to certain extent by
the American City bureau so that orgdni2-
alton threw up the sponge whereupon il
is proposed 10 establish, statewide or
ganlzatlon to continue work along the
lines Of highway Improvement
One thousand invitations were sent out
to representative citizens in all parts of
the state and some % or 80 men left
their business for the day to give thair
time to state improvement. In the face
of this lack of enthusiasm the men pres
ent were courageous enough to initiate
some sort of a plan to move forward but
which will be definitely put up to the peo-
pie of the state. If the people want some
sort of a road organization they can have
it by showing evidences of a willingness
to sustain it, If not the thing will prob
ably die
We learn from some contemporaries
that the present movement is a sort of
pleasant little camouf1age under which the
Patrol committee proposes to carry out its
sinister designs but we have some doubt
as to that There is very little move
ment of any kind at present If some
hundred or more Vermont citizens are
anxious enough in seeing a forward look
ing highway movement develop to CON
| tribute $50 year for three years we shall
have such movement, otherwise we shall
| not.
II appears to us that there should be
a great deal of sympathetic interest in
the matter and some rather hearty sup
| port. just why anybody should sneer
at such a project we cannot understand
The men who gathered at Montpelier
seemed to us to be type which should
/ be cordially supported in any undertaking
having to do with state improvements.
/ Even small species of Misrepresentation
will no doubt, prove to be discouraging
to the small working nucleus which the
proposed organization now has and Ger
tainly it cannot but fail to work disad-
vantageously in the matter of the fnan-
| cal support needed
| Any body of men impelled solely by
the desire to be of service to the state
ought to receive consideration and sun
port in their undertakings rather than
skepticism and suspicion.
! Civic progress isn't pleasant to under
take anywhere at any time, there are al
ways natural obstacles enough without
creating additional ones and with per
manent road organization hanging in the
balance we certainly can't fathom some
of the comments we have read unless
there is a perverse spirit loose which
simply resents any effort to move in any
direction outside the beaten path
! An analysis of the situation, however
we leave to the esteemed Clipper in its
series of articles as to ''What is the Mat
tier with Vermont

eral years to come the most careful man
agement.
1t will be generally conceded that the
one most important question in Vermont
relates to the improvement of the high
ways Better highways are an absolute
necessity if Vermont is to keep up with
the procession. Other states are keenly
appreciative of the vital Importance of
better roads and in way Vermont is in
the direct competition with these states.
Growth and prosperity are bound to
come to those states whose roads are SUI
perior, other things being anywhere near
equal Good roads are an absolute neces-
sity if agriculture is to be remunerative,
! if automobile tourists are to be attract
I ed and manufacturing is to flourish.
| The next governor of Vermont should
| be a vrie as well as loyal citizen. UNI
khampered by political affiliations SO as to
| be in position to devote his whole en-
ergy to putting through businesslike
road improvement program and to place
! the highway department on a basis where
hundred cents value is received for ev-
cry dollar expended.
People feel that Vermont should be
getting better results from the vast
amount of its road money The present
system is decidedly weak. In order to
change that system a man of force and
character and independence is necessary.
1t does not matter SO much as to the
politics or the name of the governor. The
issue is paramount.
Nermonters should determine in ad-
vance the issues upon which a governor
should be elected and then see to it that
, the man nominated and elected meet the
requirements This phase of the matter
has been stated by no newspaper more
/ plainly or succnctly than by the Bur
lington News, which says:
! What we ought to do is to formulate
a program of forward looking achieve
ments and fit our candidates to meet the
requirements of such a program and ther
, we shall be very apt to get somewhere
Our political machinery is an import
ant cog in the wheels of progress. the
: most important of all cogs, perhaps, ano
if it isn't functioning to the very bes
; advantage there exists a very defnt,
drawback to proper state development
"The first question is Just what we neet
to do most urgently in Vermont and tn,
next thing to do is to find candidate fol
governor best fitted to see that particular
lthing done"

WOMEN IN BUSINESS

Woman s power in America is well IL
Illustrated by the thousands of women
who entered almost every line of bust
ness to replace men who were drafted
during the war. Health proved their
strongest asset. Many women, however,
developed weak, nervous conditions and
could not stand the strain of business
life Such women should remember there
is one tried and true remedy in Lydia
+. Pinkham s Vegetable Compound,
which for forty five years has been re-
storing health and strength to the wo-

Requirements In Governor of Vermont
(Rutland News

Already some of the state papers are
discussing the possibilities in the way of
candidates for governor in 1920 While
it may be premature to devote great
deal Of talk to this matter thus full
year in advance, the thoughtful people
OF the state should be giving attention to
the question as to the man in whose
hands will be placed the direction of Yer
mont affairs at the close of the present
colorlcss administration
Never before has Vermont been in
greater need of progressive business adj
ministration Problems Of various kinds
are before the people for proper solution,
The largely increased state debt and rate
OF taxation, due largely to the war, make
it imperative that Vermont have for sew

Wouldn't there be a hiatus in the life
of the community that day?
Many people say they get tired of
seeing SO many ads in the papers and
the ears and everywhere. But the
chances are they would get a good
deal more tired if the ads were not
there. Certain it is that every time
anybody has undertaken to publish an
adless newspaper or magazine, he has
failed dismally in circulation.
The public wants advertising, and
insists on having it. And that is ma
tural and right; for honest, sane and
intelligent advertising means life and
progress, not only to the business life
of community but to its mental and
spiritual life as we'll

Country's Dark DAYS.

The saying mot worth a continent
tall" came from the fact that the con-
tinental currency, issued by the CONT
mental congress, was worthless, or
nearly so, during the revolution and
after. AS the continental congress
had no power to levy taxes it was I'M
able to redeem its promises to pay.
Besides. the country was flooded with
counterfeits which could not be de-
tected.
