Vermont Summer Home Sites.

The Vermont state publicity bureau
plans to concentrate its efforts TO a
considerable exteV the coming year
in development OF the summer home
idea.
There are in Vermont approximately
| 500 mountains which equal or exceed
1000 feet in height and 400 lakes and
ponds large enough to receive names
and find place on Vermont maps.
phis diversification of lake and noun
tain, scenery furnishes unequalled at
fractions to persons desiring site tor
a cottage or small farm, and there
is no town or city in the state which
lacks scenic attractions in abundance.
There are a large number Of persons.
particularly those in the teaching pro-
fession, who have long SUMNER vaca-
tons. Many business men desire to
establish summer homes for their fam
lilies where they may spend their week
| end in addition to vacation Of few
weeks. Vermont is sufficiently near
TO the cities of southern New England
and New York 10 furnish an ideal To-
cation for such summer visitors Lake
Champaign extends along the western
| border for more than one hundred
miles. The Connecticut river forms
the entire eastern boundary Of the
state. and the Green mountain sys-
tom reaches from the Massachusetts,
border 10 the Canadian boundary line,
In addition to the desirable sites on
the shores of lakes and ponds, there
are tens of thousands of acres of up
land property, on the slopes OF hills
and mountains, afiording magnificent
views. which ne of little present value
for agricultural purposes, and the sell
| ing price is exceedingly low. Much of
this property may be utilized as sites
for summer homes. There are, OF
course, certain essential requirements
The view afforded must be satisfactory.
! The location must be accessible. The
water supply must be adequate and
the place must be within reasonable
distance of some farm where milk,
eggs and other necessary supplies may
be obtained.
But these requirements may be salts
fled in many places in practically ev-
cry town in the state. 1t Is vitality i'm
lOfldnis NONtNtis AhdA FAA'tr rhaN w
reasonable This Is particularly true
of property in the upland regions. In
many mountain towns the population
has decreased steadily for more than
half a century. There is an opportu-
nifty to build.up these waste places by
attracting summer residents. A com
bination Of attractive scenery and low
prices will bring purchasers. Great
frankness j. necessary IN discussing
this matter. Unless prices are very
reasonable there viii be few purchas-
ers.
Advertisements will be printed in all
state papers offering an opportunity TO
advertise property Of the nature de-
-cribcd. free Of cost in booklet to be
issued BY the state publicity bureau

Marriage in Virgin Islands.

American standards OF race purify
are thrown to the winds here. The
population may be considered as a
mixed race. In America our census
inquiries show four classes OF persons
single. married, widowed or divorced
In the Virgin islands a fifth class Is
added. which includes large portion
OF the native population--those VINO
live together without the marriage GER
emony.
When priest or minister remon-
Strates with this class there comes
variety of excuses; the white men who
owned or had charge of the estates
on the islands under previous gov
ernments set the example, and the cou'
ple concerned are only following in
the footsteps Of their masters; or a
man viii give the excuse that when ne
lives with a woman and regards her
lust a. his Keeper" she viii do the
homework and in addition go out IN
the fields and work with him, but II he
makes her his wife. then she realizes
that She is more independent and viii
not work in the fields; or, couple
will saw that they do not know yet
whether they want TO live LIFETIME
AZ man and wife. and therefore must
have what il equivalent to a trial mar
rage. The trial viii run on for years,
children viii be born and grow up, but
still the ceremony does not take place
Another excuse, generally given by
woman. is that she wants TO have a
fine marriage ceremony and must wait
until She and the man she lives with
can save up enough money to afford IT,
This last excuse the priests and min
isters use as means of getting such
couples to marry A wedding cere-
mony elaborate enough to satisfy them
is planned and the ng-deisyed step
is at last taken. In one case an old
native woman stood up as bride. in
the full array Of white garments and
orange blossoms, surrounded by her
children and grandchildren.
A native woman came 10 the door
Of one of the priests one night sc-
companied by four children of vary
ing shades Of complexion. and begged
him to help her. 70 get support from
the government FOR her brood.
why doesn't yonr husband support
themsS the priest asked.
sHis query brought out the informa-
fion that each of the four children had
had a different father. each Of WHICH
had deserted her and to none of which
she could hook for financial help.-D Dan
