mands. Whatever the final action of
the board OF trustees may be under
this resolution the citizens OF st.
Johnsbury may rest assured that,
should it be found necessary for the
town to make other arrangements TO"
any part of the town pupils who at
tend the academy, they will have
ample time to do this, and that the
board OF trustees will act with entire
fairness to the town.
The town Of St. Johnsbury has
been, and is, the largest patron of
the academy It has for long time
freely met any increase in tuition
which the circumstances required.
The educational system of our town
is one of its chief public functions, in
which the town school system and
the academy are cooperating factors,
and the success of the system requir-
es that there should be no lack Of
confidence. nor any misunderstanding
between them, and that it should be
kept free from all that savorS OF local
politics and prejudice. We sincerely
trust that this statement of existing
facts will remove any ground for mis-
understanding, and that the coopera-
ton between the academy and the
town which has existed for so many
years and with such mutual advant-
aye and success, will continue indeli-
ritely.

than any past generation that
has left pictorial records-no
more logical than it would be to
gainsay the Rev CrowtheI's in
timation that the 1919 youth tlnds
his mind given over to things
more of the this earth than tieecy
clouds and pretty rainbows in
the midst of II bevy of fashiona-
bly, dressed girls.
But when We cast about for a
reason for the prevailing scantl-
ness and righteousness of wom-
ems apparel, our troubles multi
ply considerably. First thought
might place it on the high cost
of living. Nearly every other
evil can be traced to that source.
Certainly the fewer the clothes
the less the expense, we heartily
conclude, until closes investiga.
ton discloses that the highest
prices in the modiste's shop
adorn gowns decollete utmost to
the vanishing point.
Probab bly, the chief trouble lies
in woman's discovery that flimy
clothes do just the thing the
Rev Crowther charges them
with. They take the mind of
the young man off his work.
It's means 10 attract the atten-
ton of the opposite sex, and
bless their hearts. if a few extra
yards stand between them and a
young mans interest, the extra
yards must suffer. The inevita.
BILE conclusion is that one sex Is
just about as much to blame as
another. On the one side stands
the woman. admitting her inca
paclty to attract attention by
lOftier means and herating a
world of men who know no other
appeal. And across the court
room, man cites the story OF the
temptress in the Garden of Eden,
and swears she hasn't changed a
bit.

MODERN DRESS
PLACED ON The DEFENSIVE

When in the course of human
events it becomes urgent upon
the purist to discuss the frail.
ties of the wicked world and
center on particular phases of
life that are oiling the path of
the present generation for speedy
descent to the bow vows, we
can always count on mylady's
dress coming in for its share of
blame for piety's debacle The
present is 70 exception War
over, it was but natural that the
perennial subject of the costum-
ing of women would emerge from
its temporary observation and
reclaim its seat among the lead
ing evils of the day. Iudeed,

A america, subservient as ever to
whatever is gu rigueur at Long

Ont of this maelstrom of ini
putty stepped the Rev. j. R.
Crowther at meeting of the In
tCr-Church World Movement at
A tlantic City last week with the
discovery that present day wom-
ems styles had gotten beyond the
point whese they bedeviled the
woman alone-the sins of one
fashioned-ruled sex were being
visited on another, and young
manhood was now being made to
suffer. To quote: THE indecent
dress of some of our women in
our churches make it u"men-
ously hard FOR young man to
keep his thoughts clean and
pure And it will ce Noted

NOTICE WARNING.


To The People of Rockcas tie
County
Those who have dogs which
have not been tagged for the year
lo2o, are subject to a fine and
imprisonment IN the county Jail.
AS the County Judge l will be
forced to Issue warrants for those
who fail to get the proper tags
and yet I shall regret very much
to do so. Those who are of the
opinion that the old tags will do
are under the wrong impression.
Each dog must be listed and
new tag issued for that dog each
year. The Assessor has listed
over 1900 dogs and the law makes
it heavy fine upon the sheriff
if he sees a dog not properly
tagged or knows of any owning
or harboring dog which has
not been properly listed. he does
not promptly arrest the dog and
report the owner 10 the court,
whose duty it is forthwith to
issue a warrant of arrest for such
person.
As the Judge of the county and
the FREUD and we'll wisher of all
the people of the county, l fell it
my duty to issue this notice of
warning.
