The evening Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1918-1920, 1920-03-29

The candidacy Of Abram w. Foott
of Cornwall for acknowledgement
on the Republican ticket is attracting
widespread attention and very fay
orable comment.
The Rutland Herald says:
FOOTE'S PLATFORM
Abram w. Foote of Cornwall, who
hurls his modest headgear into the
lieutenant-governorship ring, so fan
entirely unopposed, has a brief and
model platform which other candl-
dats may we'll envy
Mr.. Foote's utterances in the lire
of platform include the following:
To encourage young men to own
farm or village homes;
To do all IN his favor to reduce the
heavy state tax rate;
To insist that for every dollar rails
ed by taxation Vermont should re-
ceive full value in service.
To take full advantage of federal
road aid and improve our highways
with the existing revenues.
The candidate from Cornwall, who
will be remembered as the Warwick
who made Charles S. Dana speaker of
the present House and recently acting
governor of Vermont, does not try to
cover every state and federal issue
involved in the present political stu
alton, but confines himself to four
things on which he has frst-hand and
helpful information. As a platform
writer, "Abe" Foote seems likely to
go far.
So far as his candidacy is concern
ed. he will start in with d strong and
well-defned support from the farm
ers, through the grange, through his
own legislative experience and
through his associations as federal
land bank appraiser for Vermont.
In former campaigns, Mr.. Foote
has shown an organizing and can
vassing acumen Of the most import
ant type.
He will probably not lose those abb
lities when applied to his own candl-
dacy.
Several other candidates have been
mentioned for the republican nomln-
alton for Acknowledgements, but so
far the gentlemen from Cornwall has
the field. Senator Martin S. Villas Of
Burlington was among the more
prominently mentioned candidates,
but recently not much has been heard
from him.
1t is difficult to say, in these days
of overnight candidates., that any
man can consider himself in posses
sion of the field for any particular Of
fee. but so far, at least, Foote Of
Cornwall seems to have a big run
ming start.
The Randolph Herald and News
says:
1t wouldn't be surprising if Abram
w. Foote of Cornwall found himself
alone in the running for second place
on the Republican state ticket. Mr.
Foote has SO long lead that anyone
else would start handicapped. He IS
good representative farmer with .
wide business experience and no no.
vice in promoting legislation, as some
discovered last year. Mr.. Focte has
proper conception of public duty
and it's obligations. He would make
substantial if not picturesque lieu
tenant governor-the kind Vermont
really needs. adv.

NewpOrts Defeated
In Two Games

The Newport Wanderers and
Newport High school second team
suffered defeat at the hands of the
two Stanstead college teams in two
fast basketball games at Stanstead
Saturday evening The scores were
20 to II and 10 to 9. The inability
of the Newport boys to get acquaint-
ed with the Canadian rules was large
ly responsible for the loss of the
games Both Newport teams put up
a fine exhibition but failed in the
pnches.
A very few supporters accompani-
ed the teams to Stanstead and return
ed on the late train. They enjoyed a
very pleasant trip and witnessed some
iino basket ball.
George MERCER, S. Baker and Al
bert Berry were the local stars in the
game between the Wanderers and
College first team, while Bell, Saurju
and Mugs played the best game for
the Stanstead outfit. Mugs, who has
the use Of only one arm, the other
one being cut off at the elbow, did
especially fine work. His remarkable
shooting and passing was feature
OF the evening.

Summer Camps for the Children
By Mrs Christine Frederick,
Authony Houshod

good grooming is not something 60
be despised. but something TO be
honored. reduced to routine and
done cheerfully. The ideal result Is
attained when the children carry
over this training into the home on
their return.
There are so many camps that
their choice depends largely on To-
cation, and also on the size OF the
parents purse. As rule camps
for boys are much less expensive
than camps for girls. Camps for
small children under ten are most
expensive OF all My preference is
for the small camp, because feel
that here children will receive more
individual attention. A camp OF
from thirty TO sixty is ideal, the
smaller number being the better.
Unfortunately many OF the camps
have taken on themselves fashion
able trimmings" and extras" 80
that they compare with the typical
boarding school. But II is not at all
necessary to thus raise the stand
ard Of camp life. Indeed, believe
II Is most unwise to do so, because
in this way the chief benefits OF
camp life are destroyed. There are
excellent camps for boys costing
about $3.50 for the season. and
camps for girls for about 5000,
which even this year give all the
care. comfort and good food any
parent could desire.
Again, 1t would be my preference
II had a young child to send 1t to
camp whose specially is young
children, and not to a camp where
there Is also a large group Of much
older children. Children differ so
widely in the ages under ten and
those from ten to fifteen, that 1t
requires entirely different handling
and care to meet the best interests
Of these separate groups.

petted and pampered at home, ana
whose every within has been mum
ored by fond and doting relatives.
There Is no room for caprice In
camp routine-all are on an equal
level.
Another advantage is the sim
plicity which camp life brings. To
my mind this is perhaps the most
beneficial result of all. Camp mem
bers all have a uniform, no one Is
richer or poorer, and generally only
a minimum of spending money Is
permitted, SO that there is no I'M
fair comparison between the chill
dren. The very fact OF a standard
ICED costume makes for equality
and democracy. The camp is in
its way a miniature republic.
This teaching OF the simple life
should have valuable results In
after years. 1t may prove a sur
prise to many children that they
can be happy and comfortable, even
In a tent, with only a cot and rough
blankets for sleeping. Indeed, II
for no other thing, the camp idea
would be splendid because 1t in
stills the view that simple living
and simple standards produce just
as much happiness as elaborate
furnishings and complicated
clothes.
It is to be hoped that many boys
will desire to become out-of-door
men, woodsmen, amateurs OF sport
solely through their camp expert
ence as children. And 1t is to be
hoped even more. that girls will see

Surely Il is only custom which re-

The Secret of Good Teeth

vuYoULD that every modern
Nv beauty could possess the
" wonderful teeth OF the
ancient savage. AS skull after

thirty-two pesrly teeth, often with
out the fsintest sign OF decay.
These men had no dentists, no
means OF any kind for beautifying
their teeth, but natures own meth
DDS kept their teeth in perfect
order.
The simple life OF the savage has
given place to the complex life OF
civilization. The savage had no
pickles, but many OF US eat them In
large quantities and allow their
acid In close contact with the hard
enamel OF the tooth to menace its
well-being.
Candy Is also eaten In abun-

becomes acid in the mouth after a
little while OF interaction with the

Most tooth troubles are now
traced to film. To that viscous
film which you feel with your
tongue. Millions of teeth are
dimmed and ruined by it.
Film clings to teeth, enters
crevices and stays. The ordinary
tooth paste does not dissolve it,
so the tooth brush leaves much
of it.

not the teeth. Film is the basis of

which ferments and forms acid.

They, with tartar, are the chief
cause of pyorrhea. So, despite

have been constantly increasing.
