WHAT THE GOVERNMENT WANTS
OF US.

The formal opening Of the fifth effort
of the United States government to raise
a great sum of money by subscription
will come next Monday The govern
ment is to raise $4,5O0,00O,00O. The in
terest rate on the issue will be Az per
cent, the highest yet fixed by the govern
ment The bonds, or notes, will be Of
short-term maturity; that is, the gov
eminent viii pay back the money, plus
interest, within few years. These OBJ
legations of the United States govern
ment are, therefore, in some ways more
attractive than any of the bonds Of pre-
vious issues floated since the government
went to war with Germany.
Reason why the government is asking
for these four billion, five hundred mil
lion dollars at this time is contained in
the simple statement that the United
States has bought something and must
pay for it. Therefore, it is coming to
the people of the nation to secure loan
sufficient TO cover the balance Of the
governments debts

HERE AND THERE
ABOUT BARRE

So much has been written lately about
Honey brook and its environs that it
may be interesting to know how the
brook came to bear name OF such odd
nature. Back 90 years there dwelt a
man on the East Barre road who kept
bees, and the bees produced honey that
was of particular sweetness, or so the
boys of that time believed. 1t happened
that party of youngsters could not re-
sist trying out the honey, and in order
to get at the honey without being stung
they procured large number of matches
with which they burned the bees. Their
progress to the hives being thus rendered
easy, they proceeded to satisfy their in
ner longings and then to carry away
what they could not eat at the time.
Being at a loss to know where TO cache
their ilI.gotten spoils, they proceeded
along the road until they came to the
bridge under which little brook named
Gale brook tbearing the name OF set
tier nearby gurgled its noisy way into
Jail branch. Crawling under the bridge,
they found place to hide their surplus
honey until the same should be disposed
OF In the way most satisfactory TO boys.
But alas! it was not so to be, for the
owner Of the bees, doing the Sherlock
Holmes act, came to Barre lower village
and made the rounds of the few stores
until he located the place where a guam
tity of matches had recently been bought.
He next learned the names of the pur-
chasers or at least some OF them and
the eat was out of the bag in short
time.

because of the advanced cost of the va
rious materials going into the making of

1t is reported that large number of
foreigners now in the United States are
preparing to leave for their home coun-
tries just as soon as the peace treaty
shall have been signed and that they
are taking with them huge sum of
money in the aggregate, the money rep
resenting the accumuations of their
years of labor in the United States. No
doubt the reason for their determination
to return to their home land is because
of the belief that the reorganization in
cident to peace will mean the opening up
Of many opportunities for those having
little money and those possessed of a
willingness to work. 1t is a more or less
doubtful outlook for many reasons and
not likely to prove so attractive in the
reality as these people believe at the
present time. There never win be the
advantages of industry which the United
States offers, and, in addition there will
be unusual burdens imposed upon the
people of the European countries in the
establishment of the conditions which
existed prior to the war. The newcom-
ers to the countries must assume their
share of that burden along with the peo-
pie who have worried through more than
four years of war.

All the Barre banks are ready to put
themselves at your service in buying
bonds of the fifth Victory loan; and
to accommodate the bank people as much
as possible in that public service you
ought to make application for the bonds
at the earliest possible moment. The
banks are generally crowded to capacity
toward the last of the open period for
the loan, in addition to doing their own
business, which, by the way, takes up
the normal working hours of the day
Therefore, it would be the considerate
thing to do to subscribe early and make
the final rush as light as possible.

it has long since gone under a different
commercial name. Pliny Wheaton, the

of each bill not being recordcd-and, as
a matter of fact, this incident has never
been recorded so far as we know. Then
the boys confession having included a
fearful statement of what had become
of the surplus honey, the owner of the
property went to the little old bridge
spanning the Gale brook flowing into
the Jail branch, and there underneath
the structure he found the honey that
was left after the youthful gorge.
So ever after that incident the Gale
brook has been known as Honey brook;
and so it will remain until some new
vagary of the human fancy may change
it, All the participants in the incident
have passed ON with a single exception;

of the good deeds that far outweighed
the evil of the little honey expedition on

An interesting incident in connec-

OF the county treasurer today to pay

OF County Attorney Maynard that
the inquest was illegal and the coun-
ty not liable for coroner's or jury
