Villas Speeches.
(Brattleboro Reformer)

The Rutland News paints a gloomy
picture of the drouth that will gradu-
ally wither the landscape after one
half of one per cent becomes the legal
alcoholic content of beverages. It
says towns in general will be ''as dry
as bone" with which we agree, as
we do with its assertion that they
will likewise be "dry as dust" but
when the esteemed News has the hard
ihood to claim that they will be as
dry as onc of Martin Villas speeches
on the league of nations we are oblig-
& to drop out of the procession.
Compared to one of the Burlington
senator's efforts, plain ordinary al
kali dust of the desert variety is as
liquid and refreshing as a bowl of
cool buttermilk at twilight of a hot
summer afternoon.
