Let the Women Do 1t.
Barre Times. J

A correspondent writing in the Brattle-
boro Reformer complains because the
Brattleboro stores, as a rule, do not open
until o'clock in the morning; and he
closes with the observation that Pos
sibly the men may have to do the house
work II such is the case, God help
them" Merely stating in passing that
stores in most live towns begin their
days business at Z am, we make the
suggestion that the women take the keys
while their husbands are snoring and GO
downtown and open the store doors.

The house has passed bill author
izing the publication of history of
Vermont in the war, to be compiled,
edited and written by the secretary of
civil and military affairs at cost not
to exceed $4,000. Vermonters want a
history of the state S part in the war
but $4,000 looks like pretty .large
sum to a layman. We would suggest
that editing and writing O history
should be done by some person with, lit
erary ability and training rather than
by state official who has no training
whatever in writing. When Vermont
in the Civil War was published one OF
Vermont's ablest literary men, the
late G. G. Benedict, was chosen as auth
or He was able to make it more than
mere chronicle of Vermonter s do
ings; he made it an interesting and ae
eomplished historical work Vermont in
the War Against Germany should be
made equally interesting and valuable
and we believe can be if prepared and
written by one of Vermont's ablest
writer's of the present day The sen
ate should give these thoughts careful
consideration before passing the bill.
