for the financial returns that are likely
to accrue, rather than from the stand
point of sentiment. They readily appre'
cate some of the attractive features OF
this proposition, and they wish to be-
come partners in the business. Yet there
il also another side to the effort which is
being made to secure this new industry.
II is the side which is represented by a
desire TO see Barre grow and prosper, to
get diversified industries, to branch out
in other lines than the granite industry,
splendid as that is, and to continue to be
wide-awake to opportunities. They feel
that il Barre is to maintain its progress
in industrial lines il viii be necessary to
secure new industries of the better class,
such as the Peerless underwear business
Is. So underneath the dollars and-cents
side of the proposition to the individual
purchaser of stock there is the spirit OF
boosting the community along good in
dustrial lines. There will be distinct
credit to the community to push this
proposition through to success. In order
to do that, the most general cooperation
is necessary on the part Of all. Everyone
must subscribe to stock to the extent o.
their capacity. The time to do that sub
! seribing is now.

Engineer Rolla Smith of the Inflated
engine 800 of the Central Vermont rail
road performed all the duties he could
perform to save the lives of the persons
entrusted to his care on the southbound
New England States Limited train,
which collided with an automobile at
Joneyille and was then partially
wrecked. He threw on the brakes when
he saw the impending danger of COLI
sion with the automobile and thereby
prevented the passenger coaches from be-
ing dragged along the ties and down the
embankment to the Winooski river. Only
one passenger car went off the iron, and
that only for short distance, SO quickly
was the train stopped. But the engine
bearing Engineer Smith rushed forward
and then careened down the bank. The
engineer had saved the lives of the pas.
sengers, but he sacrificed his own life by
staying with his engine.

The Attorney General Gives Ruling
Following War Office Announce
ment on Discharge of the
Soldiers

Washington, ID. C.-Although the
war department declared in a state
ment today that the accidents of
war and the progress of demobili
cation art at an Snd," wartime pro-
hibition cannot be lifted until after
the ratification of the peace treaty,
in the opinion of Attorney General
Palmer.
The prohibition law provides that
it shall remain in force until after
the termination of the war and the
demobilization of the army Mr.. Pal
mer has held that the state of war
does not end until the peace treaty
has been ratified. President Wilson
took a similar position in asking
congress early in the year to repeal
the wartime prohibition law insofar
as it affected the light wines and
and beer.
The war departments statement
as to the end of Rehabilitation was
made in connection with an, an
.nouncement that officers OF the
regulars were about to be returned
to their, normal peacetime rank and
that the 10000 emergency officers
still in service must be discharged
in order to reduce the commissioned
personnel to the $4,000 authorized
by recent act Of congress.
