A forest that's called Arden" seems a myth some days. some nights. but she Is no more mythical than mans great Bill O Rights. She's there, if hu- mans persevere: she's there for those that stick: her shelters based on firmer things than mortar, stone an brick. A man may wander far to find her peaceful. soothin' shade which offers biddin' branches but to souls that's unafraid: or man may find her close at hand when once he comprehends the full significance O words this Arden Forest sends. She's worth the flndin' as the sun jest risin' OCT the dune brings greater happiness than joys be- heath tho midnight moon. For Arden ain't a paradise for dreamin' folk alone: she's there for saint an sinner-those that's good-those that atone. We may be awful practical here in our groc'ry store; we may be addin' figures up as we ne'er did before: we may be dipgfn' ditches or we may be singin' Songs-it's in the heart. not in shop this Arden place belongs. An if she's firmly planted there no woe no sound. no sight can make this Arden Forest any myth by day. by night.

THE FIGHTS FINISH.

Candidate Frank Agan in his adj,

made reference to circular printed in
the interests of Candidate Fred H..
Babbitt. Mr.. Agan said, Here | am

ing and yet that circular says | am
not wet enough"
We do not think that MIR. Agan delib-
erately intended to misrepresent facts
Ito his Bennington audience, but it IS
evident that his Rutland advisers fail
ed to tell him Just what the circular
lreally said, The circular did say that
the repeal Of the Shepard Amendment
las advocated by Mr.. Agan was impos-
sible of accomplishment That was the
Ionly reference to Mr.. Agan in the
whole thing The circular was printed
for the purpose of pointing out to the
itdldn VOTERS Tie ulllCi thSc III NiiN ~
titudes of Mr.. Rabbit and Mr. Agan.
The Rutland Herald in Saturdays
issue printed what it maintained to be
translation of the circular. Here
again were the facts badly misrepres-
ented and there is little similarity be-
tween the circular as it is and the in
correct version given its readers by
1.-THE Rutland Herald.
! 1t is the losing candidate who has to
seek votes in such a manner at the
nth hour of the campaign. Mr.. Agan
never stood a chance anyway after he
ANNOUNCED his platform, and, consider
ing the fact that women are now vot-

ToMoRRoWs PRIMARY

People may not agree how to vote
in the. primary election tomorrow but
theresis no question as to the import
ance Of voting. Bennington has over
5000 names on the check list and ought
to cast $500 votes. IT. is a mistake for
the voters to let a few people decide
the elections.
Phe Banner believes that Benning-
toms vote should be for Fred H. Bah
bitt Of Bellows Falls because in. all
the six months campaign no one has
ever questioned his ability or his 10y
atty and public spirit and because il
will be better to have a governor from
the south end of the state who knows
conditions here and will see that the
southern counties get q fair share OF
the road money which they have not
always received In the past, This ar
Egument is not, unfair to the rest of the
/ %
Estate as'the north half of the state
ihas nearly all the officials and depart
lment heads and it will not be unjust
Ito have the governor elected from one
of the southern counties, 9
The Hammer cares more, however
for the welfare Of the state than fol
any one candidate and il believes y
the value of a real expression Of pub
lie choice We therefore again urge
the voters to get out and cast theil
ballots according to their best judg
ment
To the new voters we would sugges
that they should not be afraid to ash
questions about things which they d.
mot understand, Most mistakes il
marking ballots are due to oversensi
tiveness about asking questions. 1t II

norahce than to persist In incompe

MAKING Slate Pencils.

In Europe slate pencils are usually
made by hand, but in this country they
are turned out by machinery. There is
in Pennsylvania a quarry famous for
the tine quality of Its Slate, which
yields many millions of pencils an
nually. The rough material is first
sawed into suitable pieces and then
each piece is cut to standard length.

The machinery produces the pencils
in the form of cylindrical rods of that
