THE woman's vote in its first tryout
has demonstrated that It is something
the future politician must consider seri-
ously. 1t may be argued that nobody can
deliver" the woman's vote to any can
didate and that is probably correct, and
yet along certain issues that vote Is apt
to be pretty solid always.
1.-THE woman's vote has eliminated the
old-time ward heller and political fixer
and he will never be the factor again that
he once was. He lost his Job when the
suffrage amendment became part OF the
Constitution of the United states. He
will soon be as extinct as the dodo and
he should have been kicked out by the
men long ago. Frank w. Agan dealt him
one body blow.

ETIQUETvrE OF THE FOREST

the greatest menaces to vermont's
woods is the carelessness of the amateur
sportsman who does not know out door

SUMS lesson can we'll be taken to heart
and by all Vermonters. II says:
"Forest-fires are already taking heavy
toll of the natural wealth of the Eastern
Provinces this summer. Two hundred
square niles of timber have been de-
stroyed in New Brunswick. So far no
serious fires have yet occurred In

chain will never be considered an asset.
THE woman vote seems to have been
overwhelmingly for Mr.. Hardness.
Emery received a substantial support
from the new voters, Mr.. Babbitt a few,
and Mr.. Agan scarcely any,"
The Barre Times, which supported
Emery has this to say among other
things:
Most Of the people now know him as
a man who as IL by magic had caused the
smokestacks to rise in Springfield and
the shekels to pour into the Golfers of
the townspeople in consequence. They
have been told that Mr. Hardness has
something in store for the State along
industrial lines for 1t is to the Industrial
side that his thoughts tend. So the peo-
pie await expectantly They know, too.
that Mr.. Hartness is a gentleman above
reproach and they look to him to grace

functions Of the office with marked devo-
ton to duty"
These extracts fairly reflect and Illus
trate the spirit of the press generally
throughout Vermont. Even Mr.. Martin,
the Democratic candidate. has caught
the Hartness spirit Of good will and pro-
gress for Vermont. We believe the Green
Mountain State is on the direct way TO
real awakening 10 vermont's wonderful
possibilities and opportunities for our
youth here in our beloved State.
