THEY WOULD,

japanese statesmen seem TO be
peeved. If they continue in their pres
ent frame of mind they may eventual
ly become veXed.
The Japs are determined to secure
racial equality with US Americans.
They are very persistent, and even in
innate unpleasant consequences if we
don't open the door and invite them
in.
But most people in this country have
other views We are in the habit of
choosing our associates, especially
when we invite them into family cir
cle.-the American holy of HOLES.
We are perfectly willing to exchange
commodities with the japanese, But
that is trade.
But we are not willing to exchange
daughters. That is matter too
close TO our hearts to let polity inter-
fare with out judgement.
We wish them sell. ana they haze
our good viii in all mat arfal things
that are wise and jusJ.
But. much as they ,nag d=size It,
they can 1ot have oar daughters.
And racial ard social equality means
nothing else.

OF COURSE
why NOT?

The women of this country are a.
mong the best dressed of their sex d
the world.
There may be other countries where
more extreme styles are used and
where more spectacular appearance
is noticeable, but nowhere Is there 70
be found more refined elegance IN
dress than among the American wo-
men.
This applies to rich and poor alike.
In many of the foreign countries
women of the poorer classes do not
preserve the same neatness of mex
'pensive simplicity that we find among
the less fortunate of our own land.
With a very few exceptions, the A
merican woman is naturally neat in
her dress and personal appearance.
She can not be anything else Slop-
piness is foreign to her nature.
The cheapest kind of a dress is in
variably worn with a grace which is
an inherent popularity of our femin-
unity.
Possibly our freedom from the old
world caste has something to do with
it.
We have no blooded aristocracy, and
we have no peasantry. Every woman
has a legitimate right to consider
herself as good as any other woman,
though one may be reveling in the
lap of luxury and the other suffering
the pinch of poverty.
The woman who skimps to make
both ends meet today may be the wife
of a president a few years hence.
The door of hope stands open to ev-
cry American woman, and hope be-
gets pride, and pride demands neat
ness, cleanliness and purity.
In dress, as in all other desirable
traits, the American woman has few
equals and no superiors.

CLOSED DOORS

Necessity, we are told, is the mother
of invention 1t may be.
But be that as it may the inability
to secure booze has converted many
family cellar or basement into home
brewery.
Old recipes have been dug up, new
ones have been studied out, and the
work of brewing the home drink goes
merrily on--behind closed doors.
Thirst is mighty hard thing. to
buck It grips you, and tears you,
and demands insistently that it be
quenched.
And water, some say, is a very weak
and unsatisfactory substitute.
Yes, home is a great institution in
this happy land of ours, and the bril-
liancy of its inventive faculties is new

FRIDAY, JANUARY 80, 1920.
VERMONT DRUGGISTS AND LAW

The resolution adopted by the Yer
mont State Pharmaceutical association
at its annual meeting in Montpelier
this week will cause some surprise. Its
members voted not to sell any liquor
for any purpose whatever until the
state and federal laws regarding the
sale of liquor be brought into harmony
They claim that while the federal law
provides for the sale of liquors contain
ing more than one half of one per cent
of alcohol for strictly medicinal pur-
poses on the prescription of physician
and for religious purposes, the state law
forbids such sales unless the town, I'M
der the state law, has voted to allow
the issuance of druggists licenses.
Article VI, section 2, of the United
States constitution says: "This con-
stitution and the laws of the United
States which shall be made in pur-
suance thereof; and all treaties made
or which shall be made, under the au-
thority of the United States shall be
the supreme law of the land; and the
judges in every state shall be bound
thereby, anything in the constitution
or laws of auy state to the contrary
Notwithstanding"
Such declaration of the supremacy
of the federal law over any state Law
would seem sufficient to give the drug
gists of the state the right to sci
liquor under the federal law now il
force. 1t looks as if they had decided
not to carry out the prohibition Law
rather than trying to live under The
law. Their act tends to show more
disrespect for the federal than re
spect for the state law.

MARKETING MAPLE SUGAR.

A dealer in maple sugar at Morrisville
advises people not to contract to sell their
1920 crop at this time of year but to
hold it and sell to him at the market
price in the spring. 1t is said that many
farmers contract their sugar before the
opening of the sugar season and find
when the sugar season is over the market
price is higher than their contract price
Refusal to contract in advance would
save him from disposing of his sugar at
the lower price.
Perhaps the advice of the Morrisville
party is good. 1t certainly is likely to be
if the coming season should prove to be
a light one. If it proves an exceptionally
good one sugar might not bring as much
as the big dealers are offering at pres.
ent. It looks now as though it would not
be an especially good sugar season, the
winter being too solid cold and liable
to break up quickly when the break
comes. For many years there has not
been surplus of maple sugar and will
the prospects as they are no farmer
will be wise to contract his 1920 crop un
less he is offered price somewhat in ad
vance of previous years.

sworn to conversation he had with the
then Gov. Graham about the latter 1
fear of being driven into bankruptcy

The MeddLer
III the coat fits yoa, PIT it on

The assortment of technical proceed
ings in which the Thompson fund contest
already has become involved and the ar
ray of counsel participating are pretty
good proof that the fund itself is viewed
by both sides as amply able to defray
all expenses incurred in connection with
the litigation. 1t is a wholly safe pre-
diction that the counsel's charges will
amount to a considerable total, which
of course will be paid out of the income
of the fund regardless of the outcome of
the case, and there are those unkind
enough to intimate that the prospect of
fat fees was the real inspiration of some
of the activity on behalf of the bene-
ficiaries. The questions at issue, how
ever, are important ones-important
enough, in fact, so that they should be
settled definitely once and for all time
regardless of what the cost may be.
The Springfield, Mass, chamber of COM
merce is planning to start campaign
to secure the erection of building to
house small manufacturing concerns anx-
ious to begin life in that city. 1t would
be of the type known as industrial in
cubators" and would contain between
100000 and 100000 feet of floor space
that could be divided 60 meet the re-
quirements of its occupants. Buildings
of this kind have proved extremely sue
cessful in many communities, and the
Springfield trade organization believes
one would be in continuous use by small
concerns that eventually would build
plants of their own and thus add to the
city's industrial resources.
There are more than few Brattle-
boro business men who believe a build
ing of this sort not only would accom-
plish more than any other one thing in
establishing new industries, but would
pay reasonable return upon its cost al
most from the moment of its compile
ton. At present there is scarcely. a foot
OF available manufacturing space in town
that is not occupied, and so long as that
situation exists it makes very little diff
ference how many other advantages the
town may offer to prospective industrial
plants. Given a suitably located build
ing, however, equipped with light and
power and available for rent at a def
mite figure per square foot of space and
the situation would be entirely differ
ent. Furthermore, if the ownership in
such building were distributed in small
blocks OF stock among the townspeople
II would be certain to develop unanimi-
ty OF interest that would count for a
great deal in many other ways. The
proposition certainly has merit enough
to warrant its thorough investigation BY
the local board of trade.
