There have been campaigns more or
less intensive in many institutions of
learning for the fair sex against high
heels and the use of cosmetics, and now
the college of liberal arts in Boston
university has prohibited chewing gum.
The wearing of high heels and the
use of cosmetics can be explained be-
cause it is evident that they are sup
posed to improve one appearance,
but no young woman can advance the
same reason for chewing gum.

ever, shows Hardness to have carried
10 of the county s % towns and gath

along wholly original lines and his vic
tory is zone of the most effective boosts

Gus and convention system he wouldn It
have stood one chance in ten of get

Whatever one s opinions may be con
corning Mr. Rabbit defeat and the
reasons therefor it is no more than fair
to say that his campaign was clearly
conducted. The methods which he fol-
lowed proved to be mistaken in many
ways but there was nothing under
handed about them The fact of the
matter is that Mr. Babbitt was vie
tim of circumstances which developed
through his unwillingness to forego
convictions for political expediency
Had he been willing at the outset to
take stand on the liquor issue salts
factory to the Clement faction the
probabilities are that Mr.. Agan would
not have entered the field and practi-
cally all of his strength would have
gone to the Bellows Falls man. 1t is
to his credit, however, that he refused
to be party to the plan even though
the attitude he chose to maintain had
much to do with his defeat

With the state primaries now his
tory it probably isn't worth while to
spend much time in attempting to ex-
plain or interpret the results yet there
are some phases of the outcome in
Brattleboro and the county that will
bear discussion. Of course the out
standing feature of election day here
as well as in other places in the state
was the appearance of women at the
polls. The only thing about the con
duet of the average woman voter to
distinguish it from that of the average
male was her unfamiliarity with the
technical end of the operation. She
learned quickly, however, and after be-
ing instructed was not an appreciably
longer time in marking her ballots
than the, man in the next booth,
Whether women win vote in as large
numbers after the "new" has worn
off is of course an open question but
there seems to be no reason for think
ing that the ratio will not hold, espee
tally in elections where there are ac-
tive contests.

On the county ticket the contest for
senatorship aroused the most interest.
Early returns from county towns out

vote was tabulated 1t was DIR. Os-
good IS strength i'm this town that
clinched his nomination. Outside of
Brattleboro he and his editor-opponent

The attempt to wrest Frank Barber s
town representative nomination from
him through the candidacy of Mrs.
Hamilton-a move, by the way,
which was wholly of male origin
failed as most SNAP" efforts
of that kind generally do, but it never
theless left Mrs. Hamilton a candidate
with considerable potential strength.
In addition to the 451 votes she re-
ceived on both Republican and Demo
cratic tickets there were a considerable
number of ballots on which her name
was written but not crossed, so it is
not an exaggerated estimate that 500
persons intended to express their pref
erence for her. Without taking into
consideration any other phases of the
situation it fairly may be said that q
nominee who can show that much
strength will bear watching when her
name is printed on the official election
ballot.
