tion of what sort of roads Vermont
shall maintain during the months when
automobile traffic is possible, and that
in itself is problem of sufficient mag
nitude to make more than one student
of it lie awake nights.
On the one hand is the demand for
hard-surface highways; on the other
the stubborn fact that Vermont's finan-
cial resources are not such as to make
possible a program of road building
such as adjoining states like New
York and Massachusetts are able to
support
The state already is building stone
foundation roads in those stretches of
highway where dirt or gravel viii not
bear the traffic, and top dressing the
good dirt road stretches. 1t is paying
for these improvements as they are
made and making improvements in
other sections as fast as funds can be
provided and help obtained. The re-
suit is a greater mileage of fair roads
than could be obtained in any other
way and until some better plan is
brought forward is likely to be the
policy the state will continue. Brat

Nor are the distinguished services

The plan of having high school and
college teams take trips OF thousands
of miles to play a single game of foot
ball is being overdone and ought to be
curbed. High school teams need lit
tie training in the scholastic arts, and
the same may be said of the college
football warriors; and in most in
stances the members are deprived of
the benefits of class room attendance,
if not of actual study. Then, too,
there is the element of expense, which
cannot be overlooked even in the light
of the advertising value of the trips.
If thrift is to be practiced, we cannot
practice it by sending groups of fifteen
to thirty men across continent with all
the attendant expenses.

The failure of the grand jury to re-
port an indictment in the case of the
University of Vermont freshman. Don
aid Hendrick, who was killed by a
fall in the boxing bout at the univer
sity gymnasium, accords with the opin-
ion of most of the people who are at
all cognizant with the case. The death
was accidental and was not brought
about by felonious intent. At the
same time it is desirable that if the
students of the University of Vermont
or any other institution in the state
are to continue the sport of boxing
they will provide sufficient safeguards
for the participants. In this case the
mat on which the participants boxed
was not of sufficient size or was not
properly roped in.

If the young men of other states
are hocking to the national colors in
like proportion to Vermonters, it will
not take long for the government to
recruit its army and navy up to the
desired number. Vermont has been
sending large number of her young
men into the service during the last
few weeks, chiefly because Of the les
SEEMING of the opportunities TO work.
II is to be hoped that most of these
young men will come back TO the
state when their terms of enlistments
are finished and when the chances for
work will be more favorable. The
term in the service of the United
States ought to have a beneficial effect
in increasing their devotion to the flag
and their appreciation of the country

The Road Question.

The chamber. of commerce of Green

of removing the snow from the pub

make them passable for automobiles.

chased the plows but no one has pro-

not be long before the question will
come up in Vermont although the ma

as to make the plan of doubtful value
here.

Secretary of State cambridge Colby
is making the most of his limited term
in the important position to which he
was appointed by President Wilson.
His trip to South America. including
visits to Brazil and Uruguay, and pos
sibly to Argentina, was crowded into
the short period of time in which he
had to serve as secretary of state !;
will, in fact, take up considerable of
the time in which he serves as secre-
tary of state. There is a belief on the
part of many people that the trip was
not entirely necessary and could, in
deed, have been dispensed with with
out giving offense to our South Amer
lean neighbors. However, there is hope
that the formal interchange of cour-
tesies will accomplish something to-
ward better relationship between the
