POLITICAL ADVERTISING
TO THE REPUBLICAN VOTERS OF
wINDHAM COUNTY

At the primaries on Tuesday, Sept.
IA, you will elect men to serve you in
the state, county and in congress. In
November you simply confirm this cleo
tion, therefore, it behooves every Re
publican who has an interest in the
public affairs to go to the polls and
vote and every Republican in Wind!
ham county should bear in mind that
it is for the interest of this county
and all concerned that we give a unan-
imeus vote for citizens of this county
who are running for official positions.
We should. all all act as unit if we
expect to accomplish anything. See
that the women vote and register. 1t
is the duty of every male Republican
to see that the women are given in
struetion. 1t is not necessary for the
women to pay taxes in order to vote in
Freeman 3 meeting.
All women 81 years of age, who are
citizens of the United States, and have
resided in the State of Vermont for
one year next preceding the day of
election, are entitled to vote upon TAX
ing the Freeman s oath. The Board of
Civil Authority, or any member Their
of, has the right to administer the oath,
also notary public and when such oath
is administered the party administer
ing same should so certify to the Town
Clerk, and the Town Clerk should re-
cord in book kept for that purpose,
the name of the person taking same
and the date when taken.
If any member of the board admin
listers the freeman 3 oath to a voter,
such member should present the voters
name to the board, at its regular meet
ing, and recommend that said voter be
placed upon the check list.

ern divorce evil. His advice to his
son on selecting a wife follows: "Do
not wed the slender, short girl, with
curling hair; nor the slumpy, stout
girl; nor the weakly, tall one; nor the
black haired, ungovernable girl; nor
the dun one with the very yellow hair;
nor the black haired, swarthy girl; nor
the fair, boisterous one; nor the slen-
der, prolific, laseivious girl; nor the i'll
spoken one of evil counsels.' If the
young men of today should observe
these restrictions, undoubtedly there
would be fewer divorces IN the next
decade. There would be fewer
''wooden" weddings also.

Don't Mark the First Name.
Barre Times. J

When you go into the voting booth
next Tuesday don t take the pencil and
mark a cross after the first name pre-
scented on the official ballot. The Aus
tralian ballot system was devised to
give the voter a chance to deliberate
and to cast his ballot according to the
conviction that is in him. Therefore,
stop and deliberate if you have not
made up your mind already. You will
find the names arranged in alphabet
cal order according to the require
ment of the law. Thus the man whose
name begins with A in one instance
and d in another gets the advantage of
coming before the voter s vision first,
or it may be that the voter is wholly
unacquainted with the personalities of
the candidates and what those candi-
dates stand for, in which event the ig
norant voter picks the first name on
the list. Get acquainted with the can
didates, at least in a superficial man
ner, and when you 90 to the voting
place use discrimination in marking
your ballot. Don t pick the first name
because it happens to be the first name
on the printed ballot.

An Irreparable Loss.
Bennington Banner

South Londonderry and the West
River valley experienced what may
prove an irreparable loss Tuesday in
the burning of Hunt s tavern The
loss was only $4,000, to be sure, but
the construction and equipment of a
building to replace the hotel would
probably require the expenditure of a
much larger sum of money, under the
conditions at present prevailing, than
the amount of business in sight in COM
munities no larger than South London
derry is sufficient to warrant The
small town that loses its hotels in these
days of high building costs has met
with a misfortune ~

To those who claim farming does
not pay the following figures from New
Hampshire should be instructive. From
age labor income for the year 19l9-1920
was $849, from Al farms in Grafton
county $1,057 and from 81 farms in
Sullivan county $948. When it is re-
membered that labor income is what
is left after the farmer has subtracted
all farm expenses and five per cent in
terest on capital invested and in addi-
ton he gets his rent and farm products
used by the family these incomes are
quite respectable.

HOUSING OUACKERY.

Four housing bills have been intro
duced in the New Jersey legislature
which has been called in special ses-
sion and the New York Legislature IS
soon to meet in special session to con-
slider the same subject. One of the bills
introduced in New Jersey would give
governing bodies of municipalities full
power to provide tenancies to protect
tenants against unreasonable rents. An
other would exempt from taxation all
improvements to real estate hereafter
to be erected for development purposes
for period of five years. A third re-
quires at least three months dispossess
notice to all tenancies of a month OF
of indefinite period. The fourth re-
quires assessors to ascertain cost of
property and the rentals demanded for
premises and take the same into full
consideration in appraising the prop
erty
Undoubtedly there will be still DIFF
ferent bills when the New York legis-
latuIe meets but it is doubtful if rent
ais of property can be fixed by legis-
lation. Certainly houses cannot be cen
structed by statute. No individual can
he compelled to build. Exemption from
taxation might encourage new construc-
ton if there were not greater obstacles
to it. But there are. The real cause
Of the present shortage of houses is
the unreasonably high cost of construc-
ton. There is no assurance of a rea-
sonable income from the expensive
buildings of today. House builders
fear they will meet the same conditions
that face the ship builders. They have
an over supply of vessels that cost two
and three times as much to build as
older ships cost that cannot be profit
ably operated in competition with the
lower cost vessels because present
freights will not pay fair interest on
the investment.
Legislatures may pass quack meas
ures to relieve the house shortage but
they cannot make the construction of a
house cheap enough to make it safe
business venture. Consequently they
will not relieve the situation. Relief
of the housing shortage is business
proposition and municipalities cannot
enter into house construction under I'M
sound business conditions with any
greater safety than business men can.

There is a lesson that may be val
liable in the work of Prof Will s.
Monroe of Montclair, n. J., who has
Just left Vermont after working 40
days on the Monroe Skyline along the
mountains from Middlebury gap TO
Cancels Hump. He has greatly i'm
proved this mountain trail and was as
sisted in his work by ten persons from

each from Boston and Montclair, n.
J. He also announces that contribu-
tions will be made by New York peo-
pie for the erection of a Swiss Alpine
camp on this trail in honor of Theron
s. Dean of Burlington. The lesson is
this: Vermont receives material aid
from people beyond its borders in de-
veloping its natural beauties and at
fractions. The people of the state
should remember this and start the de-
velopment of more scenic routes.
