SEEING 1T THROUGH

The attitude taken by many Ameri
cans toward the assumption of man.
datory duties by the United States is
inconsistent and cowardly.
The American people went into the
war with the declared intention of
making the world safe and free for all
nations large or small. The first step
necessary was the military defeat OF
the central powers who were in a
conpiracy to uphold and extend the
tyranny of big military nations over
weaker nations. With their military
supremacy crushed the smaller ma.
tions are set free. But they can neith-
er remain free nor make profitable
use of their freedom unless the big
brothers who rescued them will help
them along in their political and &C.
onOmic development until they are
capable of taking care OF themselves.
II we stop now our work OF liberia
tion is but half done. If the Ameri-
can people were sincere in their pro-
fessions and remain honest and sim
cere they must see it through.
1t will not be a pleasant duty to
look after Armenia or Constantinople
or any other remote place which rep
resents centuryold feuds and entan.
clements and in which the American
people have little interest. But some
body has to do it, If the fruits of the
victory are not to be thrown away
The United States can engage in such
work with better hope of success than
any of the other powers, because OF
the very fact that this country is
disinterested, and is recognized as
such by all the world.
AS for the objection that Americans
edo not want to mix in European af-
fairs" It is probably enough to point
out that we have already been doing
that for some time now, drawn by
the resistless logic of world-events,
and there is little prospect of getting
back to our old isolation.
Moreover, the only new thing about
'mandatories" is the name. The
United States has been acting for
years as mandatory for several Cen
tral American countries, and has
made very good job of 1t.

could make it, cross section of the
American Expeditionary Forces.
But it was to the lines of khaki
clad, brown faced men themselves
that first interest of the thronging
crowds all aolng the wide avenue
turned. The home coming of this first
unit of American man power to cross
the submarine-infested seas was in
marked contrast to its silent, myster-
ious, unreported departure, and the
men and women along the way seem
ed to feel the significance of the
spectacle. They recalled the days
when the nation waited in wordless
anxiety to hear that these same smil-
ing, free-strding boys had come
safely to French harbor, those 9th
er days when the first word filtered
back that the boys had begun to
prove their courage in action and the
slow coming lists that carried the
names of the men who sleep forever
in France.
To one regiment of long, trim
'T5'S" an unusual honor was accord
ed. The Sixth Field Artillery was
placed between the two infantry
brigades instead of marching with
the rest of the, artillery brigade be-
hind the Infantry, for it was C bat

shot at the Germans on Oct. 23, 1917

TOURING THE
STATE ON
HIGH GEAR ONLY
Essex Automobile Arrived
Here Today Having Made
Over 1000 Mile Mark

With gears locked high, ana with
gear lever removed, an Essex auto
mobile stopped at the Caledonian of
flee Wednesday morning, having
passed Monday night the 1000 mile
mark after traversing the hills and
valleys of Vermont in high gear. The
gears have never been changed from
high since the car left the garage in
Bennington under the control of Z
W. Williams on Sept. a. In the two
weeks intervening the car has cross
ed the mountains between Benning-
ton and Brattleboro three times, has
glided up French hill in Williston
has traversed the Mohawk trail, and
Wednesday morning glided up Con-
cord Avenue and later climbed the
Dole hill approaching Danville twice
without stopping to make the turn at
the foot of the hill.
Frank E. Howe of Bennington ac-
companied Mr.. Williams on his visit
to Barre today and has been official
observer for part of the 1,000-mile
itinerary thus far covered. 1t is the
intent of the experiment to pick up
local observers at various points OF
the trip. Mr.. Howe says the gears
we're locked in high and the shift
lever removed under careful scruti-
ny at a Bennington garage and that
the demonstration is just what it is
claimed to be.
The trip to Danville was made
with three in the car, Mr.. Williams
Dr.. w. G. Kicker and Arthur f
Stone, representative of the Gale
donian. Mr.. Williams kept up uni
form speed of better than 25 miles
and easily made all the hills to the
height of land. After reaching the
top of the Dole hill the driver return
ed to the house just below the water
ing trough, circled the dooryard with
out stopping, and started the climb at
five miles an hour. The sharp turn
was easily made at Is miles an hour
which increased to 25 as the summit
was reached.
The Essex car has not been stuck
yet, although it does not, of course
try impossible hills. One of the sew
crest tests was the Searsburg noun
tain where the grade is ATS feet in
IA miles. This car and one other, of
another make, are the only cars in
the United States that have ever
made this hill on high gear.
The only time the Essex has expert
enced any difficulty was in climbing
a steep hill in Springfield, when a
lumber wagon came out of driveway
directly across the road so that there
was no chance to get by. The car
was allowed to run back to the foot
of the hill and start again after the
lumber wagon got out of the way.
The hill was then negotiated.

Marching in mass formation and
equipped with all the guns, gas
throwers and countless other death
dealing devices of front line service,
the First Division, fresh home from
France, moved along the broad av-
enue, a living tide of sunburned
fighting manhood that filled the
street from curb to curb. In their
khaki and olive drab uniforms, the
men swung by as resistlessly as the
spring floods of the Mississippi.
Above each solid block of infantry,
rose the grim line of bavoncts, the
blued steel glinting duly as it caught
the light. Farther back came the
long lines of field guns, French "75's''
to which French officers have said
France owes her salvation and, after
all the trains and wagons had rum
bled by, came a battalion of tanks,
streaked and yellowed With paint to
conceal them from enemy eyes, but
now growing and clanking their way
behind the troops in noisy response
to the cheers that greeted them.
There was nothing lacking to make
the parade an epitome of the whole
vast army American skill and in
domitable will had created to meet
and beat the enemy at his own game.
There were guns of all the types
used in France that could be moved
through the streets. Machine guns,
big and little, bristled among the
riflemen; squat mortars to hurl
bombs from the trenches; high
mounted rifles which peercd skyward
as though still in search of enemy
flyers. Some of the guns were
horse-drawn, some trundled behind
painting motor trucks or tractors.
The show was as complete as the in
genunty of the War Department

The improvement will run up into
the thousands of dollars and the firm
of Boston architects, Alden & Par
ker, who are, also the architects OF
the new building of the Plymouth
, Creamery, will start at once upon the
plans for Mr.. Davies new country es-
tate.
The old hotel property in Lower
Waterford, owned by Edwin Bowman
attracted Mr.. Davies attention be-
cause of it's slightly location and he
was so charmed with the prospects
of home where wonderful view Of
the White Mountains was always
visible that he traded for the proper
ty. He then started out to secure
the adjoining pieces of property and
has purchased the home of Mrs. Hen
ry Morrison, standing on the corner
near the bridge, together with the
water power and the building that
used to be used as a starch factory
in years gone by. He will utilize this
building for manufacturing the lum-
Der in connection with the extensive
repairs that are now being planned.
The brick house owned by G. H.
Nelson and the place owned by Mrs.
Elvira Morrison are included in his
purchase, also the land across the
bridge. The farm buildings and some
200 acreseof farm land belonging to
Alfred Wright have been secured and
it is the plan of the future owner to
develop the farm property into golf
links. The 20 acres of land and build
ings belonging to Henry Morrison
are included in the purchase.
Mr.. Davies is coming to st. Johns
bury Wednesday to meet the parties
who have been buying up this pro-
perty and hopes at this time to secure
the two other pieces of property in
the immediate vicinity that he de-
sires 10 complete the plans for i'm
provement that his architects have
suggested. The carpenters will be
engaged at once to remodel the old
hotel, tear down some of the barns
on some of the other parcels that he
has bought and by next summer he
hopes to have his country estate rea-
dy for occupancy for himself and his
friends.
Mr.. Davies is the sole owner of the
Plymouth Creamery of Boston, which
is completing in St. Johnsbury a
100000 brick building at the foot of
Hastings hill. The Caledonian is
