NO HELP FROM VERMONT.

By the action of the governor of Yer mont in announcing that he will not call special session of the legislature in his state for the purpose of taking action up- on the suffrage amendment he causes surprise from the fact that indications had been given. as the result of the re- cent Washington conference that Gov ernor Clement was going to order a spe- cial session. His action therefore indi- cates that hope was the father of the re- port or else he has undergone a change of mind since then, though it is more probable that the former reason is the correct one.
 With this announcement the chance that Vermont will be the 36th state to ratffy is ended, and 1t reduced by one the number of states in which early ae- lion on the amendment can be anticipat- ed. Such with the recent refusal of Louisiana to ratify and the refusal of the governor of Florida to call a session aarrows the fight and the possibilities and means that greater dependence than sver must be placed upon Tennessee and North Carolina. while the efforts that are being made to prevent the declaration ,f the ratification of the amendment with West Virginia and Tennessee in- :luded among the 36 necessary states will cause much more trouble if they are uccessful.

RECOGNIZING MEXICO.

Former Ambassador Fletcher who rep resented this country in Mexico gave up his post because of his opposition to the policy that was being maintained to- ward the Mexican government at time when that country was showing no re- spect for the obligations to this govern ment and when the lives of Americans were actually in danger in the republic to the south.
 For that reason there is no telling in what spirit there will be received his ad- vice, which he has recently forwarded to Secretary Colby of the state department in which he urges this country to go slow and be sure Of it's steps when it under takes 10 recognize the government re- gently set up in Mexico following the death Of Carranza. Nevertheless, re- gardless of the fact that he gave up his post in the diplomatic service. there can. not be a disregard of what is necessary in safeguarding the interests of this country. It is inNfact well remembered what the conditions were that followed the recognition of Carranza and how quick he was to take advantage of the help only to disregard promises and ob legations.
 IL has been noted, however, that those connected with the new Mexican govern zaent have been manifesting a differen attitude toward this country than ever CarranZa did when he was in his bes mood There is shown a disposition tt rsestablish a friendly attitude, to protec American lives and property, to overcem, some of the injustices that were enacted during Carranza's regime and in fact tt be what a neighbor should be.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The Sabbath Day.

MT. Editor: God not only gave us the Sabbath, but He commanded us to keen It, and l think we should have some law to preserve the sanctity of the day, l am sure all Christians will agree with me, that Sunday selling and buying should be stopped. And it is a very common thing to see heavy trucks, load ed with merchandise, running through the country, plying their trades the same on Sunday as any other day. We cannot go to church on Sunday mornings or ev- enings without eneoantering several of these immense ears. and they make SC much noise, that all conversation must be suspended until they have passed on. Sunday excursions and Sunday anause. ments are planned more than ever before. It is very apparent why there are so few in our churches, People are busy run hing around making money and chasing after amusements. and forgetting God and their children are growing up with out any respect for the Lords Day. The truth is we are becoming 8 nation of Sabbath breakers. Satan holds high car nivals on Sunday and it is time Chris tiafs gave this dissertation of the Sab bath serious and prayerfui eonsidera- tion.

BR1DeEPoRT's SANE ACTION.

Bridgeport has apparently saved itself from being badly inconvenieneed in the way of transportation service by the az tion of the common council in removing the jineys from the routes of the street cars and restricting them to streets not occupied by rails.
 Bridgeport is not getting the service that 1t desires, but from the very con- duct that it has shown toward the trolley .ompany it is doubtless getting just about what it has encouraged. The ac- ton in stopping the jitneys from taking away both the means of existence for the street cars and the service which the rity has grown to depend upon for many years cannot be regarded otherwise than 8 sensible one. It means that the cheap ' operated, run as-you-please jitneys are to be allowed to do business but they -annot rely upon the trolley trade to do f. They must work up their own busi- uess on lines where service is headed and not provided otherwise.
 Bridgeport faced a serious situation, but one which the new ordinance should 5o much to relieve. By its action it be- comes evident that it is not ready to part with its street cars ana Ihe SerVlce that can be depended upon from one years snd to the other. It may be as the may pr of Bridgeport says that the transpor- tation problem is undergoing changes now the same as the electric succeeded the horse cars some years ago, but it isn't remembered that the trolleys drove the horse cars out of business in the way that the iitneys are attempting to do il to the trolleys.
 From all indications much rests with The people of Bridgeport, even with the adoption of the new ordinance, as to whether the Connecticut company is given an adequate return for it's ser vice and whether it Is encouraged to give to the city the service it demands and which it claims not to have gotten. The effects of unjustly opposing trolley ser vice because it is furnished by a corpora ton seems to be well illustrated in this instance with the danger of it's remova faced and should be the means of getting fair treatment otherwise than by ordi nance. Bridgeport has done just whaf others have been forced to do.

normal child of the same age. Then the nlilk should be gradually increased in strength.
 Weaning may usually begin at about the ninth month, by giving baby one feeding of cows milk, using two parts milk to one part water If he digests this well, the amount of water can be decreased gradually until at ten or eleven months he may be taking whole milk. The number of milk feelings can be slowly increased as the breast feelings are decreased until at one year of age the baby is weaned entirely. A baby weanec at nine or ten months may be taught to take milk from a cup.
 Increase in the baby's diet must be made with caution, especially during the summer. It is better to keep the baby on a low. diet than to upset his digestion by over-feeding.
 A baby one year Of age in July should not be weaned during the hot months if he is doing well.
 Infants should be weaned when the mothers are suffering from a disease which they might transmit to the child. such as typhoid fever and tuberculosis : or if the mother is suffering from some disease, tuberculosis and acute pneuno- nia. The infant should likewise be wean- ed if the mother becomes pregnant or if she is suffering from inflammation of the breast.

THE DEMANDS ON GERMANY.

In spite of the fact that the Germans are making determined efforts to bring about reduction of the treaty demands, it cannot fail to be realized by them that the allies are firm in their position and that such concessions as they are making must be supported by facts.
 Germany. in connection with the fur nishing of coal to the allies offered te provide half of the tonnage demanded The allies agreed that there should be a reduction in the amount to the extent of 200, 900 tons monthly but they still insist on the two million tons and un- less Germany agrees to this amount if will be necessary for the allies to ster in and superintend the delivery them selves
 Germany of course represents that ii is not able to do what is demanded, that every ton sent to the allies means just that much curtailment in the German production and that the taking away ot the coal interrupts industry and such in terruption flinders just that much in the payment of the indemnities.
 Perhaps it is only natural that Ger many should be eager to devote every pOSSlDl6 lOtl O1 Us COdl lO pA0oASeASAA and it is of course weighty plea that il makes when it says that such is a vi tai matter, but it cannot be overlooked by Germany that industrial reestablish' ment is quite as necessary in the other countries where 1t has been made neces' sary because of the acts of the Germans The rebuilding of allied industry and even the revival of the coal industry has been made the harder because of the de structive policy that Germany followed throughout the war. Germany is re- sponsible for the position in which the allies are. It is responsible for the de- mands that are being made upon it. I is being called upon to pay for it's owr acts The handicaps which it placed up on the allies are proving a boomerans from which it wants to escape, and 1t ii to be realized that there is disposition among Ithe allies to be far more con siderate toward the Germans in the exac- tion of the penalty than they ever man ifested in their treatment of the, inro- cent during the long years of the war.

ADMIRAL FISHER.

By the death of Admiral John Fisher England loses one Of it's important na- val figures who will occupy a permanent place in naval history. He had seen many years of service but during a period when there were not many great naval opera tions so that he will not be numbered among the great fighting adnirals, al- though as Lord Fisher of the British ad- miralty he figured prominently during the recent war. He was among those who had reason to say 'I told you so, when the war with Germany broke out.
 He was an ardent exponent of prepar- edness. He was constantly advocating and took a prominent part in supporting the efforts that resulted in increasing the standard of gunflre in the British fleet He saw great possibilities in the dread nought and much can be attributed to his efforts in having it adopted in preference to the old type of battieships.
 He was a man of strong convictions whose judgment was not always rated as the best, though his direction of the fight that the British fleet won at the Falkland islands as first lord of the admiralty was a brilliant achievement and did much tc onset the mlslaksS or olherS pltNlousi9 committed Though he was opposed te the campaign in the Gallipoli peninsula he withdrew his opposition at the appea of other leaders only to witness what hs has persistently feared from such an un dertaking.
 Probably the most effective work tia he did in connection with the navy cart at times when it was a case of prepar ing rather than fighting. He was ; stiekler for perfection and a constant ad voeate of improved fighting machines be ing secured to replace the types tha were less efficient What he might hav done as fighter can only be imagined from the service that ne rendered tn | navy in other resnects

whatever the result of the undertaking to restrain the ratification announcement it becomes plain that Governor Clement of Vermont has determined for himself what his duty under the Vermont con stitution is and intends to follow it. He holds the state constitution higher than the pressure of political expediency and if the amendment to the federal consti- tuition is adopted in time for the women to vote in November throughout the country it will have to come without the vote of the Vermont legislature.
