DECORATE THE GRAVES.

A movement has been started by
the Chicago Tribune to see that the
graves of American dead in France
are decorated with flowers on Memoir
ial Day. This is fine idea and worthy
of widespread support All Americans
may join in this act of love and graf
itude. The world may go hurrying on
but we must never forget those who
died so bravely. This day, Memorial
Day, consecrated forever to the sol
der dead has taken a new signifi-
canoe through the World war. 1t has
been revivified by the blood of those
who died for an ideal. Let us bark
back for a moment to the spirit Of
America during the dark days so re-
Gently passed by. Let us reflect upon
the devotion and love poured upon the
affairs of our country by her devoted
sons and daughters. Let us remem-
Der the mighty buying of bonds Oft
times requiring keen deprivation. Let
us not forget the labors of our women
in the Red Cross, their effort in the
homes to save that others might not
starve. Let us not forget those who
marched away to camp and deep to
die if need be for America!
PatrlOtlSm seems TO nave lOSt It's
fine glow since then. Our problems
have become economic and the greedy
side seems to be predominant But
let us not forget that for while
America stood beautiful and stately
though bleeding. Let us not forget
that a great people was afire for an
ideal of Liberty and that the sunlight
of God shone upon their faces!
Memorial Day has taken a new sig
nifcance. For a brief time we can
drop our tasks and pay debt to those
who died for us.

GOVERNOR FAVORS
BEER AND WINE.

Madison Sentiment in America is
opposed to any return of whisky and
high wine, but favors beer of low
content; much unrest has been start
ed by dry laws, according to Governor
Philip.
In letter to John A. Pace, secre-
tary of the True Temperance associ-
alton of England, the governor made
these assertions. The letter was in
response to an inquiry.
After six months of national pro
hibition there is an almost unanimous
sentiment that the American bar, as
heretofore conducted shall not be re-
established. There is, on the other
hand, a widespread sentiment that
beer of low alcoholic content and light
wine should be permitted to be sold in
hotels, restaurants and other places
especially equipped for the purpose,
and that the same may be sold and de-
livered to private homes the COVER
nor wrote.

THE HOUSING PROBLEM.

The problem, Where to Live" is
becoming more acu in America each
day. In the stricken European coun-
tries where governments despite the
labels are practically cOmmunistic a
sincere effort is being made to solve
the matter. Home societies are being
formed under government sanction.
In England the government is under
writing a gigantic housing scheme. In
poverty-stricken France the same eff
fort is being made. In America,
where with our genius for democracy
we have little genius for communis-
tic effort, nothing co-ordinated is hap
pening. Instead we are drifting as
usual. The result is apparent In
cities families are herding in apart
ments. In rural districts the supply
Of housing space is rapidly being ex-
hausted Those who can afford it are
afraid to build, afraid of a slump in
building values. The majority who
must have homes cannot afford to
Iild. We might take g lesson from
Europe where cOngested living cen
ters long ago forced a serious study
of the housing problem.

THE DEARTH OF LABOR.

At the bottom of the present dearth
of necessities of every description
lies one or more reasons. One may
be that all building and manufactur-
ing was more or less curtailed during
the war period. Each year develops
a certain amount of necessary things
to be done to keep things moving
evenly. We held up our normal de-
velopment for several years and now
the bars are down the demand has
come with a rush Another element
is the lack of raw labor In this huge
industrial commonwealth labor was
recruited each year from the purlieus
of Europe. The wsr put a stop to this
great inflow of raw labor. During the
war when development was halted
this condition was not so apparent
Now we find that our class of raw la
bOrers imported before the war has
graduated to other and better work
leaving their ranks untitled at a most
vital point. Americans. native born
or otherwise, won't clean streets.
They won't make steel. They won't
kill and cut up carcasses. They won't,
in a word, do any of the dirty. hard,
dangerous work that is so vitality me-
cessary. Our European training clas-
SEES have ceased to appear for matric-
ulation into American industry. Liv-
ing is high and help is scarce.

is URGED
BY FRENCH WRITER

Paris-The brilliant French writer,
Collette Willy, has declared in favor
OF polygamy. She says:
Il believe wisely organized polyg-
amy to be the solution of the present
crisis in the marriage problem. Old
fashioned marriage ideas have out
lived their applicably under pres
ent conditions.
Il abhor the monotony of present
family life, where the children embody
the same qualities and defects of their
parents.
Il believe that the common interest
in the betterment of the race and the
legal equality of the different chill
dren would gradually overcome wom-
ans present repugnance to the idea
of sharing the same man"

4 BIAS LIE PARTIE LABEL.

1t seems to be the general opinion
at present that the public no longer
cares about party names. If third
party should spring up and nominate
real man for president, it would
have fair chance of success. especial
ly as it is expected that the Republican
convention will name a politicians
candidate. The Democratic record of
the last three or four years leaves it
little hope of success, according to
present public opinion.-Dodgevil

William j. Bryan, the "Commoner,"
has evolved plan to curb human
greed in the form of profteering and
speculation. Mr.. Bryan proposes a
trade commission in every state and
a local commission in each commun-
ity Penalties should be provided, Mr.
Bryan says, to curb the greedy ones
and if these are not sufficient. a sec
ond remedy would be to require cost
and selling prices on every article
sold so that the customer might Judge
for himself as to the fairness of the
price As final remedy Mr.. BRYAN
proposes profit limitation by law lust
as the law now regulates the interest

The Rev. l. NJ. Haldeman, a we'll
known Baptist clergyman of New
York, fatty opposes the Interchurch
World Movement. What he says is Of
interest whether one agrees or not
Some Of his reasons are:
ct is socialistic; it talks more about
the Christ who lives on earth than the
Christ who died on the cross. 1t seeks
to save society, rather than the indi-
vidual; it makes civilization, and not
aviation, the supreme purpose of the
church.
1T seeks to turn the churches into
centers to be interested in all that may
interest the community, while the
scripture demands the church be sep
arated from the community and be in
terested in one thing, the preaching
of Christ"
Hyjalmer Key, editor of the Svenska
Dagbladet, Stockholm, says that Eu-
ropean civilization is facing complete
collapse. Mr. Key, who is in Ameri-
ca to study domestic conditions, says
that while Germany is the real hub
of Bolshevism with Germany on her
financial feet the real danger is over.
Scandinavian countries do not fear
Bolshevism although Socialistic ele-
ments are strong in the governments.

CHILDRENS AID
FUND-SWELLINC IN
ST. J0HNSBURY
Need Only $195.30 to Com
plete Quota. School
Pupils Helping

Only $195.30 to raise to complete
it's quota. That is how the village
of st. Johnsbuly STANDS today in the
drive to secure funds lor the Chill
dren's Aid Society OF Vermont in an
effort to help the children of the state
Officials in charge of the campaign
are hopeful that the fund here viii go
"over the top" this week but will be
satisfied if the quota is completed
early next week. St. JOhnsbury's
quota is $1,000 and $804.70 of this
amount already has been subscribed.
Every citizen is urgently requested to
give according to their means, if only
few pennies.
The first contribution in the CAM
naigning was received from the City
Mission. The check forwarded by this
organization was for $1,000 which
gave the fund good start.
The town of Lyndon has passed
way beyond it's quota of $500 and is
still going. Up to date $769.55 has
been given to the society and the
money continued to pour in. Why
can't St. Johnsbury do as well.
Mrs. M. N. Haywood, who is chair
manman of the drive, has received
the following letter from Miss Ruth
Damon Downes:
Nov. 8, 1920.
My dear Mrs. Haywood:
1t is with the greatest pleasure
that I~send syou the report of what
the school children of S.. Johnsbury
have done in the Drive to help the
"Children's Aid Society.
Two weeks ago they were given
the slogan "Work, Earn, Give" and
faithfully have they remembered it
as the results prove. The fact that
the money has actually beer earned
by the children gives it far greater
value as a gift.
The total is $112.17. To the third
grade in the Summer street school
goes the honor of earnnr the largest
amount, that sum being $15.74. The
fifth grade in the same school came
second with credit Of $13. The sec
ond grade came in third with $11.50
and it is with pleasure that we note
the little tots in the first grade earned
$3.50. They should have had first
place if enthusiasm could have given
it to them but little folks cannot
earn the amounts that the larger
folks can. However, they deserve rec
oSnition for their splendid spirit.
