 When making coffee for a crowd and big coffee pot is not available there are several ways of managing a successful result.
 A large stewpan with a tight-fitting cover makes a perfectly good con- tainer. A salt sack that has been carefully washed and boiled so that the printing is all removed from the cloth makes a good coffee bag.
 The bag should be twice as large as is necessary to merely hold the coffee. Coffee expands a little when put into water and should not be packed in the bag.
 If more than a pound of coffee is needed put it into several bags. The strength will be extracted more easi- ly and quickly from the coffee grounds.
 Menu for Tomorrow.
 Breakfast-Grapes, poached eggs, quince honey, coffee.
 Luncheon-Fried corn. combination salad, whole wheat bread and butter. sliced peaches. tea.
 Dinner-Pork tenderloin, baked sweet potatoes. apple sauce, sweet pepper salad, watermelon, coffee.
 My Own Recipes.
 As the weather grows cooler pork may be added to the list of meats. Until frost comes, however. pork roasts should be avoided. Pork is like oysters in that it should not be used during the months spelled without an "r."
 Quince Honey. 4 large Quinces. pounds of sugar. 4 cups water. Pare and grate fruit. Put fruit, WA ter and sugar in preserving kettle and boil thirty minutes. Put into stsri- lized cans and seal while hot.
 Fried Corn.
 6 ears sweet corn.
 2 slices bacon.
 tablespoons milk.
 Pepper.
 Cut corn from cob. Cut bacon in small pieces and cook in a frying pan over a slow fire to try out the fat. Add corn and milk. Cover and cook slowly for ten or fifteen minutes till corn is tender. Season with pep per and brown quickly. Fold and serve at once.

eminent by causing that government
to tighten its grasp and by arousing
great wave of public sentiment in
defense of the government, although
not necessarily in defense Of wealth
as represented by some of the financial
leaders of the country. Those were
the ultimate results of the outrage.
The perpetrators have not accom-
plished their purpose. r. P. Morgan &
Co. will not distribute their wealth
among the bolsheviki of America; the
government will not shake with fear
individuals may stand aghast at the
wholesale murder and shrink from
repetition of the disaster; but that is
all Meanwhile the bodies of more
than score and half of people lay
stilled in death and hundreds more are
injured through the plot. The per-
sons for whom the bomb was intended
were not touched Instead, innocent
persons became the victims, persons
passing through the street, stenog-
raphers who were no more a part of
the scheme of wealth than the ditch
digger out in Chicago, tradesmen 60

even members of the laboring class
The victims were not partners of the

Enforcing Prohibition.

Much comment is being made in the
press and ON the political platform
concerning the enforcement Of prohibi,
tion in this country. Violation of the
law seems quite common, government
officials acknowledge a shortage of en-
forcement agents, wet advocates charge
that more liquor is being consumed
now than during the licensed sale of in
toxicating liquors and many are saying
the law cannot be enforced and it
should be repealed
1t cannot be maintained that the use
of liquor is stopped in this country,
probably ii never will be entirely
stopped any more than murder or rob
berry are stopped by statute But it
is not true that more liquor is being
sold and consumed in this country un-
der the prohibition amendment than be-
fore. If it was true liquor users and
liquor sellers would not be 50 dissatis-
fed with the present law.
1t should be remembered by those
who advocate the amendment of the
Volstead act so to allow the sale of
stronger liquor that it is not easier TO
enforce law prohibiting the use of
stronger liquors than it is to enforce
straight prohibition. The victim OF an
alcoholic appetite is not satisfied with
two or three per cent beverages and ii
his appetite is kept active by the
lighter drinks he win evade the law to
get stronger drink more quickly than
If restrained from the use of any al.
coholic stimulant. The difficulty Of en-.
forcing prohibition is no excuse for au-
thorizing the sale of more liquor be
cause the restraint of partially in.
toxicated person is more difficult than
restraining one without liquor. Brat.

In view of the fact that towns and
cities of Vermont are suffering each
summer from heavy rainfalls which
wash out and gouge the highways and
sidewalks, it would be well for each
city or town, in making up the budget
for the year, to set aside a special
fund for meeting the expense occa-
stoned by these visitations of nature
One storm recently caused loss of a
thousand dollars on the streets and
sidewalks of st. Johnsbury If the
storms do not occasion damage, the
town or city will be SO much ahead of
the game.

The total Republican vote cast in
last Tuesdays governorship primary
was far short of the party strength al
though it ran up to 60,s57. Estimat-
ing the absent Republican vote, the
Democratic vote cast and the, Demo-
cratic vote that failed to turn out, IL
is probable that the aggregate voting
strength of the state under the equal
franchise system is already $4,000,
with potentiality of being consider
ably larger when the eligible women
are all registered. The politicians will
have to make up some new bases of
operation.

Theodore Roosevelt, the younger, de-
scribes Franklin d. Roosevelt, Demo
cratic candidate for vice president, as a
maverick; that is carrying our name
but not one of us. However, young
Roosevelt might be willing to concede
that T. d. Roosevelt has some good
qualities in spite of the fact that he
does not carry the same brand as T. R.,
ir., does. That sort of political talk
does not take away votes from the
Democratic nominee for vice president,
and the use of it was most unfortunate
from the Republican standpoint
Young Roosevelt will do better as a
campaigner when he engages a censor
on his public utterances.
