rROLL YOUR OWN"
cemetery

It's a wcll-worn advertising phrase
but like most phrases of effective adj
vertising, has good sense behind it.
Western in its origin, probably, the
idea is that, given good tobacco and a
little knack. a smoker can reduce the
high cost Of living by making his own
cigarettes. With solid boost in the
price of all "boughten" cigarettes, the
slogan has its sensible appeal, and il
can be applied to the "help" situation
in the great American home.
Weird stories Of the exactions OF
nursemaids, for example, come from
the cities. The maids, il is alleged
not only want substantial increase
in wages and privileges but are pre-
pairing to limit their activities TO one
child in a family, two being allegedtas
burdensome and proper pretext Tor
employing a helper. The answer is:
"Roll your own" baby carriages, as
well as cigarettes.
The traditional Sunday afternoon
function, with Pa wheeling the baby
carriages and Ma attending to the
walking members Of the family, j. a
sight that spells home life AZ lis best.
1t was a perpetual delight TO Theodore
Roosevelt, that great exenplar Of the
natural family; It is founded in the
best instincts and traditions Of the
home.
Housemaids, chambermaids, cooks
ard men-sc-vants are also demanding
their ~rirhts," and some Of their de-
nsnds have a very reasonable found1-
tion. The attitude Of many metropol-
tin families 10 their help" has no
doubt been atrocious at times and in
rtain places. and perhaps the situa-

less industry to make a real American
home, and the male side Of the family
must probably face his responsibilities
in the matter more fully than be has
done Of late. His job does not cease
when he snaps the lock Of the Office
door or punches the time clock or puts
bis car in the barn. His job as the
family provider may require him to
wash the dishes, do the marketing,
and in daylight saving towns, TO take
the baby out for an airing. 1t is a
somewhat familiar situation, and its
solution may have a decided effect on
the serious problems Of living and
citizenship.
Simplifying domestic conditions in
the home Of the humble citizen as well
as Of the dweller in the Fifth avenue
mansion, would not be a bad thing.
We are plastering our plain, repub-
lican ideals with altogether too much
of the gilt and gingerbread of Europe
We haven't the real thing and never
can or should have; why not look the
situation in the face, let the maid go,
raise the cooks pay if necessary and
roll your own?
1t listens like" a sensible solution.

Meeting Here And Meeting There

Round another year we've Travelled
Doing tasks and bearing pains,
Catching joys that fitted past us,
Having losses, finding gains,
Till we come once more together
On this anniversary day,
Glad to meet familiar faces,
But alas! we cannot stay.
Intercourse however pleasant
In such gatherings as this
Ne'er il otherwise than transient.
And falls short Of perfect bliss.
But there is a place Of meeting
In reserve for the redeemed
Where companionship is richer
Than life here has ever dreamed.
There where days are never counted
And where years are never told,
Where the soul-life is eternal
Growing never tired nor old
We, If through the Saviour's mercy
He shall let Us gather there,
In the beauty and the glory
OF that Blessed Place will share.
With our hears from sin unburdened
And our minds from trouble free,
We atone with one another
And with Him, our King, shall be.
Never there viii come forebodings
OF a final parting hour,
Never physical distresses
Grip US with their weakening power.
Reaching out and reaching onward
With forever new desires,
With a mind that misses never
Aught to which It there aspires.
We shall know perennial gladness
And in endless joyance move,
For the spirit Of that meeting
Is Divinely-perfect Love. (
Celia M. Reynolds

VERMONT AND SUFFRAGE

The Republican party as national
organization is unreservedly commit
ted to the promotion Of political jus
tice for women. Vermont republicans
are being put in the attitude Of opposi-
ton to national republieanism by one
man simply because he happens to be
in position TO misrepresent the Re
publican party in Vermont in this as
wen as other issues.
You can not conceive Of Vermont
republicans opposing protection for
American industries and the products
Of American labor, nor 100 per cent
Americanism in other connections.
How can we consistently claim to be
genuine republicans if we oppose the
national party on this issue of suf-
frage and political justice for women,
which at this time completely over
shadows the protection issue? Here
Is what the st. Albans Messenger says
on the subject:
"William Howard Taft points out to
Governor Clement the responsibility a
governor assumes in not calling a
special session of the legislature, and
thereby preventing this State from
acting on the equal suffrage amend
ment. With Vermont's vote needed to
make the amendment effective, the re-
sponsibility assumes enormous proper
tions. but up 10 this time Governor
Clement has seemed willing to bear it.
The Messenger is forced to the con
clusion that Governor Clement has as
yet advanced no sound reason for this
refusal, and it hopes that he will be
guided by the advice and counsel Of
good republicans and give the people
Of the State, through their representa-
tives. an opportunity to give State
expression Of this question before it Is
too late"
The Rutland News speaks Of this
subject from another angle as follows:
There are some evidences that the
advocates OF women suffrage in Yer
mont believe Governor Clement is GO
ing TO thaw out sufficiently to call a
special session Of the Legislature for
the purpose Of taking action on the
proposed equal suffrage amendment 10
the federal constitution. It is almost
too much TO hope, however. because
His Excellency's habits OF thought
stamp him as one opposed to change
Il any sort. and unless further polit-
ical aspirations lcad him to bow TO the
dictates Of expedieney il would be
strange indeed 20 see Mr. Clement
lending his support 10 any departure
from the established order"
Governor Clement has been trying
20 SCI up the Vermont constitution
against the Con tiiution of the United
States. However, the federal cousd-
tuition. which even Nermont's governor
-1t admit On be Tire supreme law y

The news OF the passing Of the ven
cradle Judge Nichols on Sunday last
while not surprising, was heard with
keen regret by the many friends in

was widely known. 1t was not thought

the late celebration a full account was
