sault upon her young daughter. Mrs
Tiff was given not less than eight MOI

at Windsor for the crime. Her arrest
was brought about by her husband
| who learned of the assault through
his sie ter, Mrs. Luella Fem of Mont

story while she was visiting her aunt
recently.
The lifts lived on a farm in Iras-
burg. They had four children. Be-

The mother was married at the age
of Is. She is a degenerate and it is
believed that she will soon be trans
ferred from Windsor to Brandon.
Nellie has been sent to the State
Industrial School at Vergennes where
she will remain until she becomes Of
age.
Shortly before Mrs. Tiff was taken
into custody, Wyman fed from the
state and made his way towards the
middle west. Detective Brown, con-
sidered one of the best sleuths in
New England, was put on his trail
two weeks ago and tracel him to be
troit where he was apprehended The
only clues Brown had to work on
were post cards, one mailed by Wy
man to girl in Wallingford, VT, and
the other to Mrs. Tiff. The trail
led through many cities and Brown

With the aid of the city detectives,
he finally located Wyman, who was.
working as a second engineer on one

would hinder their operations and
perhaps make it impossible to cap

TO PREVENT STAMMERING
By H. Addington Bruce

y TAMMERING is an affiction that handi-
caps hundreds of thousands of people.
~ 1t is eminently preventabIe affictiOn.
And its prevention rests chiefly with those in
charge of the upbringing of young people.
For stammering usually begins in early
childhood, and usually after a period of per-
fectly normal speech. There are few STAN
merers who have always stammered.
There are not a few who stammer because,
when they were little children their parents
foolishly allowed them to initiate playmates
or older persons who stammered.
The children themselves thought it funny
thus to initiate the unfortunate. Their silly
parents may have thought it "cute. At any
rate, they did not promptly put stop to the
initiating.
And presently, to their own dismay and
their children's lasting sorrow, they found
that it had developed into fixed habit of
speech
Other stammerers owe their trouble to
parental neglect to train them to speak slowly
and distinctly.
Of excitable, overenthusiastic Temperament
in other words, of a neurotic diathesis as
doctors put it--they spoke in childhood tor
rentially and breathlessly. Words tumbled
from their lips so fast as to interfere with one
another.
After a While-perhaps following some
emotional shock-they suffered from a def
mite speech defect. Their utterance remained
explosive but now it exploded only with the
effort and strain that are characteristic of
stammering.
Emotional shock itself is held by many
present-day authorities to be the chief cause
of stammering. This belief is borne out by
statements obtained from numerous STAN
merers.
"My stammerng," typical report will run,
"began when, as little boy, I was suddenly
awakened in the night by noise could not
place.
"My mind was full of ghost stories I had
heard from an old nurse. Thinking the noise
must have been made by a ghost, shrieked
for help. When help came I was found in a
panic, almost unable to speak. Ever since
that time have stammered.'
The protecting of children from needless
frights, safeguarding them from distressing
sights, avoiding tales that may give rise to
fear-inspiring ideas-these are, indeed, pre-
cautions every parent should take on general
principles. They may be vital to the preven-
ton of stammering.
And as further indispensable precaution
training for courage and for emotional control
should be begun by all parents while their
children still are very young.
For emotional strains of some sort are
bound to be experienced soon or late. And
when these come, if the children are both
emotionally uncontrolled and of a nervous
tendency, stammering is all too likely to re-
suit with or in the place of other neurotic
symptoms.

humanity. Had circumstances III any wise
encouraged him, he doubtless would have
given our enemy material aid and support
after we had entered the conflict, and by
that course would have done his own coun-
try incalculable disservice. 1t was inevi-
table that having SO little insight and
foresight should lose his footing and go
down.
What may come of the new revolution
is yet hardly to be conjectured. Either
Obregon or Gonzales, both aspirants for the
Mexican Presidency, would make in all
likelihood better governmental head than
the petulant egotist whom they have sent
packing-better, that is to say, if either
would yield peacably to the other and cast
his influence for concord. 1t remains to be
seen, however, whether there will be an
orderly adjustment among the divers fac
lions or internal warfare like that which
followed Huertas expulsion In any event
the United States, while taking due steps
for the protection it's own nationals and
for the common interests of civilization,
can well afford to await with patience and
sympathy the developments of the present
situation, in the hope that they may lead
to happier days for the southern republic
and happier relations for all concerned.

and will stand when

hitched.
Since we all admit that marriage
is the proper sphere for woman, and
the one in which she finds her own
highest happiness, and Is most us~-
full to society, we should encourage
her on in the husband hunt instead
of berating her for going out on rns
chase. Nothing could be more idiot
ic and inconsistent than our atti'
tude in this matter, and if we onl,
had enough intelligence to abolish
the foolish convention that prevents
women from openly seeking her
mate. we should not only have more
marriages., but happier ones.
For women know what they want
in a husband, and if they had their
choice they would get it. 1t is only
because they have to take any thing
that is offered to them thai
make what appears to US to be such
poor selections.
All honor, then, to the woman
who wants a husband and has the
courage to seek one instead of sub
hitting tamely to fate and ending
her days in the Spinster's Retreat.
1 would remind such one of two
things. The first is to use judg-
ment in selecting her hunting
ground. Just as there is no use in
no fish, or beating bush in which
there are no birds, so there is no
profit in seeking a husband in places
where the only men are dotards, or
beardless boys.
At present the happy hunting
ground for husbands Eb ara is is in the bust
for this. One is that when wom-
an is in business she is where the
men are thickest, and where she has
an opportunity to meet daily and
hourly men of every conceivable
n business knows a
hundred times more men than the
most popular society belle does, and
has therefore that many more
chances to catch one.
a man off his guard. When he visits
a girl in her home, or takes her out
to parties he knows that he has en-
tered into the domain of the man
and have been baited especially for
him, so he is wary and suspicious.
But with the business woman he
feels safe, and SO he strolls merrily
along, careless and unconcerned, I'M
til she gets her pot shot into his
heart, and bowls him over.
I would also remind the woman
who wants to marry that men are
like children, Indifferent to the
things they have and with which
new toy. Thus it is that the girl
who is a wall flower at home is
rushed when she goes to a strange
place, and that no infrequently
woman who has been regarded as a
hopeless old maid makes a highly
desirable match when she goes on
visit to her sister.
The moral of all which is, If you
are not appreciated at home, go
where the men have better taste.
There is nothing like a change of
partners.
But don't advertise for husband
It's not romance, you will get but
black regret.

DESTRUCTION VERSUS
CONSTRUCTION
By DR.. Frank Crane

Here are two news items which appeared
in the daily press the same day.
AS the brilliant arc light is formed by
bringing together two highly electrified
points, so if you will juxtapose these two
items they will shed dazzling illumination
throughout your mind, for they are highly
charged with significance. To use Schllers
phrase, they are inha1tschwer, which means
there is a lot in them.
ITEM l. Secretary of the Navy Daniels
at an executive session of the Senate Naval
Affairs Committee urges sufficient appro-
priations to launch naval building pro-

To meet this menace we are asked to ap-
propriate ten million dollars as a starter to-

cisco, creating submarine base at Los An
geles, fortifying Guam and Honolulu, and
cleaning our gun and whetting our smoker

ITEM 2. The same day is reported a
meeting of business men, scientists publ
cists and the governors of four states, (Ste-
phens of California, Campbell of Arizona,
Davis of Idaho, and 3amberger of Utah) at
Los Angeles, to consider one of the most gil

Early in his administration he conceived
the idea of flouting the United States, not
withstanding that he owed his opportuni-
ties for useful Presidency largely to the
forbearance and goodwill of the Washing

to foster friendship between the two cOun-
tries, he seized every occasion to inflame
ignorant prejudice on his side of the Rio
Grande and to provoke popular resentment
on this side. Instead of cooperating with
American authorities to eradicate border
trouble, he made their tasks difficult
as he could, thus strengthening the outlaw
elements that were defying his own
regime. During the World War he was

Keep the Roads Repaired.

q AVS the Triton Gazette, in congratu-
lating the Commissioners of Tiff
county on the purchase of a tractor
and heavier auxiliary machinery for the up
keep of highways: "The county has spent a
great deal of money in building roads, but
not enough in their maintenance. A road
constructed at considerable cost has been
allowed to disintegrate while the convicts
were building Others" With the new equip
ment, the Gazette adds, established roads
can be kept in good condition while new ones
are being built.
The Importance of such conservation can
not be accomplished. Thousands and
millions of dollars of highway funds have
been dlssipated through lack of an ADEQUATE
repair system for the roads on which they
were expended. In thse days of heavy and
continuous traffic the best built roads will
give here and there. Breaks which are small.
almost unnoticeable at first, widen under
the stream of vehicles and the wear of
weather until soon there is a serious
breach. TO discover these initial tears
and give them the saving stitch in
time, the French maintain a system of high
way inspection more thoroughgoing than
that OF railroads in this country and the
economy is such that America, with her re-
puted business efficiency, we'll might adopt
the plan.
Now more than ever before it behooves
Georgia to look carefully to the upkeep of her
highways, because vast deal more money
than ever before is being invested in them.
This year there is available for road con-
struction and improvement more than twelve
and half million dollars; and in recent sea-
sons fOrtySiX counties have voted an aggre-
gate of nearly seventeen million dollars of
bonds for highway betterment and extern
sions. With so niue hinvolved, it would be
inexcusably negligent not to keep the new
road beds in constant repair. Tiff county, in
acquiring machinery for this purpose sets a
commendable example
