End of a Tragedy.
lst. Adams Messenger.

Horace f. Graham's career as Cover
nor has come to an end As one list
encd to him deliver his farewell adj
dress to the joint session of the legis,
-lature, there was dominant mingled
emotion of resentment and regret: re-
sentiment that through the instrument
tality of this man the state had come
into any diseredit, regret that he had
stained in any way his own record.
For, if we are to forget-an impos-
sible thing, of eourse,-but if we are to
forget the unfortunate situation that
has arisen, it must in all fairness be
said that Horace Graham has given
the state Of Vermont good admins
tration which in others and happier
circumstances would have received the
great and unusual reward of being con-
tnued into a second term.
The whole affair has been nothing
less than tragedy It has been long
time since man undertook the duties
of the governorship amid such a gem
eral feeling of good viii and high ex-
pectation as Horace Graham. and the
contrast between now and two wears
ago is something which it is not pleas

There is a wide feeling that he should
have delivered his farewell address III

RED CROSS REFUGEE WORK.
Urgent Need of Help from Now Until
March II Making Garments-Sewing
Rooms to Be Open Every Day

From now until March l there is
urgent need of the help of every Red
Cross worker who can sew to make
clothing for the refugees of our
European allies made destitute by the
war.
An exhibition of the garments needed
and to be furnished by the Red Cross
has been prepared by the Brattleboro
branch and is now being shown in the
window of the vacant store next door
TO the Western Union Telegraph office
on the east side of Main street.
AT the Red Cross rooms in the fed
eral building, until March l, every
worker who can do plain sewing is
needed to help make clothes similar to
those shown in this window, From now
until March J., ocean. steamship COM
panies will furnish free tonnage for
Red Cross supplies; after March |
freight must be paid For this reason
the most intensive effort to complete as
much of this kind of sewing as possible
should be made now IF Brattieboro
women will respond to this call, the

The rooms in the federal building
will be open for sewing every after
noon from two o clock to five o clock
and a member of the supplies commit
tee will be in charge. Women are want
ed for plain sewing regularly and each
woman is requested to devote a few
hours each week. more if possible, to
this work. The Red Cross is organized

HUNTERS TAKING ADVAN-
 FACE o FOPEN SEASON

Little Rock, Nov. 10.-Hunters are going out of Little Rock by the hun dreds, into the prairies and along the lakes and rivers, now that the open season is on. They report game, es- pecially ducks and geese, but that hunting is very difficult on account of there being so much water. "The whole country is under water" is the report that many of them bring in. Some of the hunters report heavy bags of game. A few crowded the season a little and twenty of them were cited by the wardens to appear before Judge Trieber, who assessed fines of $25 each, with an admonition against violating the law again, in which case a jail sentence would be added.

TOMORROW WILL BE
 AMERICAN LEGION DAY

Little Rock, Nov. 11.-Yesterday was American Legion Sunday, and as such was given recognition in many churches of the state. Tomorrow, Nov. II, the first anniversary of the signing of the armistice, will be American Legion Day.
 By proclamation, Gov. Brough has called upon 'the citizenry of this state to make this day gala occasion in honor of those heroes who have glori- fled American traditions and in com memoration of the end of this titanic struggle in which democracy so glor- iously triumphed over autocracy."
 The American Legion is growing rapidly in Arkansas, as it stands for pure Americanism, and is strongly opposed to the activities of the l. w. w., the anarchists and the interna- tional socialists.
