GETTING HOME

When you have wandered far away
and left the old familiar scenes
To live for days and nights afar from
all that friendship really means,
Though skies are blue and men are
kind and joy is yours from day to
day,
How good it is when comes the hour
which starts you on your home
ward way.
Oh, there is beauty in the hills and
music in the roaring sea!
The pine and palm are fair to know,
but fairer is the apple tree!
A strangers smile is good to see, but
wander wheresoe'er ysu may,
The richest joys of earth are found
always along the homeward way.
There comes the time when scenes
afar will lose their luster and
their thrill;
You'll want the old familiar street, the
sitting-room, where all is still,
The faces of the friends, you love, the
children romping at their play.
And you will hail with joy the time
which starts you on your home
ward way.
It matters not how fair the place to
which in search Of peace you
roam,
There is no thrill which can compare
to that you find in getting home.
To be once more with those you
know: on that the joys Of earth
depend
And sweet the thrill and glad the day
which bring you to your journeys
end.

parts of Vermont under the auspices
OF the Greater Vermont association tor

represented by the officials and other
valuable information about the state
government should prove enlightening
Too little is known by the citizenship
at large of what is going on in the va
rious governmental departments at
Montpelier, not because of any desire
on the part of state officials to cover
up their acts but because of the lack
of an agency to present the work IN
more than fragmentary form. II the
plans are carried out with enthusiasm

Oranges Woman Legislator.

To the town of Orange comes the
distinction of having the first woman
representative in the Vermont legis-
lature. Edna L. Beard having been
elected from that town.
Orange is a typical Vermont town
with the usual hills and valleys, stu
ated in the northwestern corner of
Orange county. 1t is strictly farm
ing community, although extensive
numbering operations are carried on,
the timber principally coming from
Knox mountain, one Of the prominent
peaks in the eastern range OF the
Green mountains. This town, like
more Vermont towns, has been the
birthplace Of Vermonters who have
gone out into the greater activities OF
life. but there have remained at home
the sons and daughters of the pioneer
settlers, who. though not 40 noted as
those in the. larger centers, neverthe-
less, have the same admirable eharae-
teristics of sturdy, conscientious. 10y
al citizenship. Miss Beard has been a
teacher in the public schools, and for
several terms the trusted treasurer OF
the town Of Orange. The full RESPONSE
bilities of duty called her early in life
and those who know her best fully
realize how nobly she sacrificed self to
meet them. and how faithfully she has
carried out this work. Miss Beard has

The Graham Pardon.

As Governor Clement says in his
statement pardoning Ex-Governor Hor-
ace F. Graham, the former chief execu.
tive of Vermont, in being convicted of
crime and sentenced to states prison,
has suffered enough.
Some cynics will declare that the
governors action is conclusive evidence
that all men are not equal in the eyes
of the law and no doubt the governor
well knows that he will have to face
considerable adverse criticism. To the
Rutland News, however, it appears
that Mr.. Clement is to be highly com
mended.
The theory of the law is not to seek
revenge but rather to make sure that
justice prevails and that society is pro
tected.
To have allowed Mr.. Graham to be
imprisone would have been TO have
taken revenge on man, who although
he Incorporated state funds, has ac.
tually done more for the welfare OF
the state than any chief executive oil
the past generation.
The ends OF justice are served and
society is protected. There is not the
slightest danger Of Mr.. Graham repeat
ing the performance and the shame
which will follow him all the rest OF
his life will certainly be enough pun.

CURRENT COMMENT
Boobs and the Essex Junction Station.

Several of the joke editors could not
resist the temptation of poking fun at
the Essex Junction station, the re-
cent fire there furnishing the fuel
Some of them were real sarcastic. The
station is still there and will probably
stay for few generations. So far rs
the people of Essex are concerned they
have no difficulty in getting on the
right train at their home station. The
chief trouble seems to be with a Few
smart Vermont editors whose mode OF
travel is limited to an occasional troll
ley ride or drive behind old dobbin
People of intelligence have no difficulty
in making the right change of cars at
the Essex Junction station--the boobs
always go wrong Burlington Clipper

The Pardon Of Ex.Goy. Graham.

II may be a matter Of sound sym
pathetic satisfaction to Governor Glenn
ent of Vermont that he is able TO set
Ex-Governor Horace r. Graham tree,
with a certificate Of high character
and of distinguished public service, in
opposition 10 the decree of the eu-
preme court Of the state, which had
condemned the former governor TO
from FIVE to eight years in prison. We
cannot question the motives of Gov
ernor Clements heart in the matter,
but there is grave reflection on the
court in the terms of the letter to
Graham with which the governor ac-
companies the pardon. The letter, by
quoting the report of the auditors,
which in effect covered up the financial
transactions Of Graham while state au-
ditor, distinctly carries the implica.
ton that he was without offense. II
this we're the case, what does justice
in Vermont amount tot Has the su.
ureme court condemned an innocent
man. Moreover, the high compliment
which Governor Clement pays to the
former governor in his letter leaves the
impression upon the public mind OF
spotless public service on the late gov
ernor's part.
Either way the matter is looked at,
there must have been failure Of jus.
tioe in Vermont If Horace T. era
ham is so stainless a man as Governor
Clements voucher seems to imply. the
courts Of the state must have been
the instrument of an attempted act
of tyranny and injustice. But all who
know the states ideal of equal and eN-
act Justice for all men will hardly cred
IL such an assumption as that. The
distinct inference remains that Il
would have been much better TO Let
the law take It's course. at least until
such time as its formal demands mny
he supposed to have been satisfied. and
IL IL be true that the ex-governor, as
Governor Clement says, has suffered
enough, 70 have set him free then a.
an act of pure mercy, and not in q
manner 20 make the pardon virtual
yindication.-Bo Boston Transcript.
