The Publishing Business

,(BufllnSIoIi bdiiy NI""i
Newspapers which have been FAC
ing abnormal conditions during the
war seem to face further develop
ment of such conditions rather than
a return to the normal.
Print paper consumption has IN
creased tremendously and produc-
ton has scarcely Travelled at the
same rate so serious shortage OF
print paper with attendant high prlc-
es promises to be the rule in 1920.
This means smaller papers, less
reading matter and higher rates both
for subscriptions and advertising.
American newspapers face what IS
really a critical situation and doubt
less more papers will fall by the way
side in the coming year than in any
wear since conditions in the publish
ing business approached the abb
normal. -,
Educational campaigns which will
create a still larger English reading
public will tend to increase circula-
tions and the demand for newsprlnt
so it will be several years before
anything like normal conditions Will
prevail in the publishing business.

PRESS COMMENT
Submerging Thanksgiving Day
Barre Times)

If it is Gov. Clements purpose to
recommend to the Vermont legisla-
ture that the time honored Thanks
giving day be wiped out, OF merged
with celebration of armistice day,
he will no doubt find that the people
of Vermont will be strongly opposed
to the plan. The custom of celebrat-
ing the harvest was established IN
New England back in 621 when the
PILGRIM fathers rendered thanks for
the crops of the year, and it has been
kept with more or less regularity
ever since that time. Here in New
ENGLAND it is an almost sacred habit
to set aside the day albeit the sig
nifcance of the observance has been
lost sight of to considerable extent;
and since the days of Civil war it has
been the practice of the presidents
of the United States to set aside the
last Thursday in November as
Thanksgiving day, the governors OF
the state following suit in almost
every case. To rob Thanksgiving day
of its individuality by merging 1t with
an international event, such as the
celebration of the signing of the arm
istice, would be to deprive Americans
of one of their finest traditions; and
it would be, to New Englanders, al
most a violation of the sacred things
of the past. 1t is well enough to
honor the first anniversary of the
signing of the armistice by proclaim
ing holiday and even to perpetuate
the anniversary by setting aside a
day of celebration in the years to
come, but it is not according to the
peoplees wish to submerge the identl-
ty Of, the peculiarly American
thanksgiving day. So Gov. Clement
would be better guide should he de-
eide not to submit the matter to the
legislature of Vermont.

Suicide Prevented
at Rutland City Jail

RUTLAND, Nov. 14-Clarence
King of Florence, who is detained at
the Rutland City Jail and who may
possibly be charged with murder in
the first degree, should the wound of
Arthur Dudley prove fatal, was in
strumental in saving the life of a Is
year old youth, companion in the
prison.
The boy, Roland Deteau, was at
tempting to hang himself with
.!ock-tie. s-'t
Hearing commotion, King rushed
into the main part Of the Jail and saw
the attempt at suicide. He tried to
loosen the necktie, but was unsuc-
ccssful, and called officer. Martin
Kennedy, who cut Duteau loose from
his homemade hangman's knot.
The boy said he was trying to end
his life, because of the delay on the
part OF the officials in sending word
of his predicament to his parents in
Ansonia, Conn. Duteau was arrested
Tuesday by special officer o. Il.
Packard on the charge of stealing Il
ful'-liGed coat from a railroad section
man. The coat was taken from seat
in the station at Altoona, N Y. -t

While it is true that the beautiful
colors displayed by the rainbow are
due to the passage of light through
raindrops, the popular conception that
the drops are directly in line between
the sun and the bow is Incorrect. &C

the raindrOp and is refractcd and re-
fected back to form ne bow. In this
passage through the drop the differ

Vermont and tuberculosis
( (Brattleboro RefOrmer)

1t is gratifying to know that Yer
mont leads the United States in hel
crusade against tuberculosis, the fatal
tiles from this dread disease having
been reduced in the last 20 years
much faster than in any other state
There is, however, much work to be
done, especially among those of the
granite industries which seem par.
ticularly conducive to pulmonary
troubles, A campaign for raising g
fund of $4,000 is soon to be launched
by the state tuberculosis organiza.
ton which should meet with ready
response.

DEMOBILIzAT
OF ''W MEN NOW
AT A STANDSTILL
Only 400 Remain in Southern Depart
nent-Activity on Mexican
Border.

San Antonio, Tex-Demohilization
of Army Young Mems Christian asso-
citation secretaries in the Southern Mil
itary department has about reached a
standstill for the present, according to
j. FL. Eckford, departmental supervisor
of personnel About four hundred
wearers of the Red Triangle remain in
the six states composing this depart
ment, more than six hundred having
been released since the signing of the
armiStice. 1t is believed that, with
the numerous camps in the department
demObiliZed down to practically the
smallest possible working force, cou-
pied with the demands of the regular
army men and the returning soldiers
from overseas, there will be a need for
at least four hundred secretaries for
at least several weeks.
Seventy secretaries are serving the
towns and outposts along the Mexican
border, this phase of Y NJ G. A ac-
tivity having been materially enlarged
since the armistice Apparently 1900
miles of border territory is now being
covered, the greater part Of it by itin-
Grants in light delivery cars, in which
the secretaries carry a full supply of
books, stationery, portable motion pic
ture machines, athletic equipment. In
a number of the isolated villages where
troops are stationed the 7. M. G. A.
hut is the only entertainment feature
and the soldiers share their privileges
with the civilian populations. Every
border outpost is now being reached
by the "Y' men, and the work will con-
tinue as long as there are soldiers to
serve.

FIFTY THOUSAND
SIGN FOR LAND
Soldiers in Camps Organizing Farm-
ers' Forums Are Being Aided
by Army Y. M. C. A.

Farmers forums composed of sol
diers desiring to establish homes and
farms on land provided by the govern
ment are being organized in the nili-
tary camps Of the Southern depart
ment, comprising Texas, Oklahoma,
Louisiana, Arkansas, New Mexico and
Arizona by the educational depart
ment of the Army and Navy Y. NJ. G. A.
Groups Of soldiers comprising the
forums meet regularly in the Y. M.
G. A. buildings and discuss the ques-
tions involved in their efforts to get
and means of, developing the lands
after they get them. Literature from
the department of the interior and
the agricultural departments of the
states being studied is obtained and
a digest Of it given to the groups by
different members.
S. n. Craig, representing the depart
ment of the interior, has been largely
instrumental in formulating the plan
of operation followed by the soldier
farmers and farmers-to-be A series
of addresses was given by him in the
camps Of the Southern department in
the "Y'' buildings, during which he
outlined the course to be pursued by
the government in assisting soldiers
to locate on unused government lands
in various states.
More than $4,000 soldiers have
signed the applications for the gov
ernment land which will be available
after congress has passed the bill con-
tanning the recommendations of Sec
retary of the Interior Lane, according
to Mr. Craig
, 1T is gratifying that so many OF
the soldiers have indicated their de-
sire to take advantage of the oppor-
tunities to be provided under the pro-
visions of the new law said Mr..
Craig. "The ultimate success OF the
plan depends upon the follow-up work
that viii be done by the farmers fo-
runs in the various camps being or

Islands once Place Of Exile.

The Princes islands got their name
because they served as a place of ex-
lie hundreds Of years ago for princes
Of the Byzantine empire. The emper-
ors of Byzantium used to punish DISC
bedient dignitaries by combining them
on these islands. The islands are
only ten miles from Constantinople, set
in the lovely blue Sea of Marmora,
and rich in beautiful scenery. Thou
sands of tourists visit them annually.
There are in all eight islands in the
group, of which only four are inhabit-
ed. The others are mere rocky islets,
frequented by fishermen, and made IN
pleasant by enormous numbers OF dogs
relegated there by the Young Turkish
government in an endeavor to rid Con
stantinople of its superfuous canine
population.

OF ALL EATABLES
Ideal Food for Both Body and Brain
Is American Pie, According to
This Enthusiast.

This is the height of the pie season
in ali parts of the United States. Pie
plates in every household are juicy
with the good stuff between the crusty
roof and the less crusty foundation.
OF course, it will be said that it is a
matter Of taste, but we speak for
green-apple pie as the best of the
seasons offerings.
Every day in the year is the height
Of the pie season in New England. A
westerner who lived for year at
Framingham is on record as saying
that he had pie three times a day,
q times a week, ana-do the rest of
the multiplying yourself some thou
sand times in a twelve-month. From
only one meal was pie missing, and
on that day the housewife, momentar-
lily careless, allowed the deIectables
to be burned up in the oven and the
neighbors We're unable to lend because
they had just enough for themselves.
All sorts of shameful things have
been said about the New England pie.
1t is just as good as middle western
pie, and no better, but this is speak
ing in high praise of all the pastry
from Rhode Island to Maine, inclusive.
There are persons who say that En-
erson, Whittier, Longfellow, Holmes.
and Lowell while they wrote we'll
would have written better if they had
cut out pie as a steady diet. We do
not believe it. Pie is food for the
body and food for the BRAIN 1t is
Americas surprising dish. Apple,
peach, berry, cherry, pumpkin, lemon,
squash, custard, mince-and proper
slice of each is full quarter, and

Russlans. FIoekIna Into Japan.

A minor, but none the less particu-
larly interesting, outcome Of the an
archy in the former empire of the
cars, is the extensive Russian immi-
grafton into Japan. There are Rus
slams everywhere in the land of the
chrysanthemum. In Kobe and Yoko,
hama particularly every. available dom
icile is taken up by Russians. For at
least two reasons Japan welcomes
this influx into her borders. The Rus
SLAMS find everything very cheap in
Japan, after their country's high
prices. and are good customers. The
other reason lis an outcome of the
fact that many Of the refugees belong
to the old revolutionary strata of Rus
sian society, and there are many ex-
pert chemists among them. These men
have opened laboratories in their new
home, end are organizing an industry
which bids fair to make Japan inde
pendent of the German market Thus
Japan is reaping a valuable reward for
her hospitality to her former foes.
