Lest the automobile tourists get the
notion that the so-called Ethan Allen
trail between Burlington and the White
mountains, via Cambridge, Morrisville,
Hardwick and st. Johnsbury, is the only
road between the two points mentioned,
the parties interested in Barre and
Montpelier ought to get together and
mark the trail by way Of Montpelier
Barre, Groton and Wells River, one of
the best routes anywhere in the state,
and over one of the most scenic routes.
1t might be well, too, to mark route
from Rutland across the Green noun
tains to Barre, thence to the White
mountains, which also is splendid route
for automobile traffic The way to pro.
coed is to invent name and then paint
the posts along the route The sugges.
ton is advanced to the parties directly
concerned.

VERMONT SAVINGS BANK DE-
POSITS.

What temporary setback the Vermont
savings banks may have received as the
result of the demands made by the Unit
ed States government on the people for
war loans has been more than offset by
the marked acceleration in the inflow of
deposits now that the governments re-
quests have stopped. For illustration,
the savings deposits in the SO savings
banks of the state showed gain of
more than three millions of dollars in
the two months and a half period from
April Is to June 80 of this year. 1t is
evident from those statistics that the
spirit Of thrift is 50 deep-seated in Yer
monters that the people cannot be shak-
en- out of the steady habit Of saving by
such distracting influences as five Lib.
erty loans and sporadic investment in
war savings stamps; in fact, the idea OF
solid investment which they gained
through placing their money in govern.
ment securities seems to have developed
the desire to save money all the time by
placing money in the savings banks
There are no statistics available at the
present time on which to base such an
assertion, but it would not be at all sur
prising if the number of savings accounts
had taken a marked increase by reason
of the lesson Of savings for government
needs

London, Dec. 2.-State purchase of Great Britain's liquor trade would in volve an outlay of s1,600,oO0,00 ac- cording to the committee which has been preparing for the labor campaign for the standardization of the to1lsi- ness.
 Extensive inquiry has indicated that organized labor is solidly in favor of the naturalization scheme, it is claimed. Prohibition, the committed asserts, does not stand a chance, but the British public wants an improve ment in the standard of public houses. Such improvem ent it is contended, would be made general through the state purchase and control of the trade.

BERLIN NEEDS \ NEW POST OFFICE May Have to Procure "Curb
 StOne'' Site 
 POSTMASTER'S QUEST VAIN
Present Property Sold and Will Have to Be Vacated Within Short TYme-Other Berlin News and Gossip of Interest.

The prospect of a United States post office station, conducted on the curbstone in BerIin's main street, and a line of shiveIing Berlinites waiting for their mail while Postmastei Alfred A Barrett, just as cold, doles out the parcels, is one that may con- front the residents of Berlin within d very short time if a new location for the city post office is not provided according to the local lpoatmaster
 The Goodrich place has housed the Werthington post office for some tims but the property has been sold recently and a new location iS sought by the postmaster. So far sMr. Barrett has been unsuccessful in his quest. A room in the town hall has been refused to him on the ground that it must be used for som e- thing else. Several other tentative locations have likewise proved i'm = practicable.
 MT. Barrett will remove the post office to his own residence. he said this morning, but this will prove in convenient to a number of residents who live in the other end of Berlin. The office he said, must not neces- safdly be a large establishment, but at must be roonly enough to accom- modate his equipment and those who i come to secure their mail. He men toned the Kensington office, which has been built by resident of that I community who rents it to the gov l ernnent. Some public-spirited citi- zen, he said, should build a post office and rent fl to the governm ent or rent 1 paPt of a building already con- ! structed.
