St. Johnsbury started early in the
morning and the classrooms at the
Academy and Junior High school
were thronged with visitors through
out the morning.
At the afternoon session, after
prayer by DR.. Francis A. Poole, Prin-
cipal Davis of the Academy bade the
visitors welcome in a pleasing and
gracious manner. Several depart
mental conferences followed, those
conducted by Mr.. Merrill and Miss
Vaughn being especially worth while.
1t is a pity that every thinking cit
izen could not have heard Miss
Vaughn's talk on bringing the home
into the school and the school into
the home as her able handling of the
subject days all present something
of inestimable value to carry away.
This mornings session was devoted
to two conferences followed by an
address by Payson Smith, Commits
sioner of Education from Massachu-

A GOLDEN REWARD

Alaska's fish for 1918 will bring more
than it's gold according to government
statistics, the salmon being worth $51,
900, 900 wholesale at northern canneries.
Salmon propagation in Pacific coast
streams returns golden reward to any
state carrying on this work. k.-Exchange
Yes, but who gets the gol-
den reward? Not the fisher
men who SO out in boats and
catch the fish! Not the pack
ers who cut and can the sal
mon IN the packing houses!
It's the big food combines who
control and store away every
product of eatables in the y.
S. and then say to the rest of
the world: "When you are
ready to pay our prices, we'll
open the warehouses to you."
Their excuse for charging 22
to IS cents a pound is "the
fish are working shorter hours
now. and can't see the bait
without spectacles."

Another chapter in the now
we'll advertised "War of Ari-
zona" and thrusts to repel
the sensational attack of our
"Jack of Clubs governor" on
Adjutant General Harris was
a letter from Col. Harris to
the financial head of the COM
mission of state institutions,
in which Commissioners Bau-
inert is advised "to stop four
flushing" and attend to the
duties of his office in a legal
manner" Col Harris still
holds the fort IN spite of the
governors legal and other at
tempts to oust him. Accord
ing to the attorney general,
Harris is still de-facto adult
ant general and the governor
is regarded as only making G
a monkey out of ingalls, by
appointing him to an Office he
is unable to put him in pos
session of. But all this keeps
Gov. Campbell in an unenvi-
Gus light before the people
that they will surely resent
should he ever come up for
reelection.
