responsible for the turning by young
men and young women to colleges, in
asmueh as chances for livelihood seem
to some to be more alluring in the
professions than in the skilled trades,
which are the natural alternatives 10
the professions. Then, too, the lower
ing Of wages in many of the skilled
occupations has had tendency 70
bring the professions up more neatly
on par with employment in factor
les, plants, shops and other places
where the skilled worker has hereto
fore been much in demand. 1t may
be also that the lesson of the war has
had its effect in teaching the young
people the desirability of having a
college education. All of these things
can be considered as being contribut-
ing factors toward the unusual and
unexpected rush to the colleges OF
Vermont as elsewhere throughout he
eastern part of the country.

The police may stop Urban LedSux
from putting on his spectacular "auc-
tons" of persons out Of employment
in various cities Of the country, but
it seems probable that Ledoux' meth
DDS have in part carried out their pnr-
pose, which was to arouse the public
to the fact that there is a great deal
of unemployment and that many peo-
pie will be actually starving this win
ter if aid is not forthcoming in me
shape of aims or work. OF course, the
public knows in a general and imper-
sonal sort Of way that there are ap-
proximately five millions of people cut
Of work because Of the business de-
preston; but the fact has not been
brought forcibly before them until the
spectacle of the auction block was
brought before them by Ledoux. There
NAV have been some imposition foisted
on the public in the sale in Boston,
but il is also probable that there was
something Of real good accomplished
in behalf Of part Of the men sold
under the auspices Of this selfappoint-
ed reformer.

WATERBURY,

Fifteen girls and an efficient teach
er makes the teachers training class
connected with the local high school,
but held in Library hall, another asset
TO the higher education in this village
and community. OF last years class
and those who previously graduated,
there are Misses Catherine Callahan,
Helen Towne, Beatrice Ledoux, Olive
Garrow, Mary Robinson, and from out
of town, Misses Ruth Ayers, Dorothy
Shepherd of Stowe and Frederika Teel-
gea of Richmond. OF this years class
there are Misses Rose Woodward, Ida
Robinson, Evelyn Ayers, Pearl Towne,
Beatrice Coutts, Emmogene Howes and
Viola Anair. The school board were
fortunate in securing for teacher
Miss Ruth Morgan Hanks of Randolph,
who has not only had normal training,
but has taken courses at Columbia.
She has natural bent for the work,
which is evident as one steps into her
room. The Library hall is fine
place for this, as all reference books
are handy and it is felt that here there
is an earnest band, who, when this
years work is done, viii be able to go
to the higher schools and finish the
prescribed course, as the work here is
the first year of the two years course
laid out by the state board of educa-
ton.
Tonight another event of rally
week at the Congregational church will

Vermonter, a graduate of Smith col
lege and the New York medical college,
She has spent 25 years in Madura
where they had over $4,000 patients a
year and over 1000 operations.
This afternoon, too, has come the
opening of the Community house and
many have awaited themselves of the
opportunity of seeing and enjoying
this beautiful home. The reception
room, with its furniture which har'
monies so beautifully with the walls
is an inviting place The formal open
ing takes place this evening, when
James Estee of Montpelier speaks
There will also be local speakers and
all will enjoy the music, social time

A rather unusual sight passed
through our village last Friday morn
ing. when one of the Dimock trucks
driven by Leland Everett and accom-
panied by James Smiley and VIII
Eastman, started for Springfield, Mass.
The load was young apple tree care
fully dug up and placed in a large box
lust fitted to the truck, the tree bearing
about go Mackentosh red apples. 1t
reached its destination in good shape
and attracted much attention en- route.
Mr.. Dimock has a fine exhibit of his
farm specialties at the Eastern States
exposition at Springfield, two OF his
girls. Miss Beth Clark and Miss Mil
bred Smith, taking down truck load
of wares and remaining to show them

If any one says anything about this
not being a good year for corn to grow
C. w. Jewell says most of his grew tall
enough. They measured one stalk that
was 10 feet eight inches tall. He would
have liked it to have been four inches
taller; but if it had all been as tall
he would have had to move either his
woodshed or the house to get it to the
barn, as it could not have been drawn
between them.

Democrats looking for the turn of
the political tide will have to look
somewhere else than in New Mexico,
where H. O. Bursum, Republican, was
elected United States senator by 1900
or more majority over the Democratic
nominee That is approximately the
majority by which Harding carried the
state in the presidential election and,
considering that the United States SEN
atorship was dependent upon special
election in which voting is generally
lighter than in regular elections, the
majority for the Republican nominee
was unusually impressive. There
might be a different trend Of public
sentiment in some other section of the
country, but it seems probable that
the Republicans have not done any
thing of such consequence as to cause
a popular revulsion against that party
or its nominees throughout the coun-
try a. a whole The New Mexico cleo
ton for senator indicates that.

Ex.Gov. Fletcher has recently told
his audiences that while he was chief
executive of the state he was informed
by the federal department of highways
that there was no such thing as a
"permanent" road. In the literal sense,
this is, of course, true. But Rutland
has got a few miles of solid reinforced
cement highway that bears the ear
marks of a greater degree of per
manency than is evident by any other
type of road construction we have yet
seen in Vermont.-Rutland Herald.
Wen match Barre's granite block
pavement on a sand base and covered
with cement composition. against
your reinforced cement highway and
wager dollars to doughnuts that the
Barre granite pavement will be there
long after Rutland's reinforced cement
road has gone into the discard. AT
the same time Wen grant that rein
forced cement is good kind of road
way, although not the best.

Mountain climbing has its hazards
in addition to the danger of being lost
or of falling over precipices. The per-
son with weak heart should not es-
say any arduous climbing. A sad &C.
currence on the slope of Mount Mans
field recently accentuates the warning
The climbing of Mount Mansfield is hy
no means the difficult feat which Al
pine climbers perform but it neverthe-
less has its laborious features and its
test of muscle and heart, as those
who have gone up and down the noun
tain the same day can attest.

Among the exhibits at the Caledo-
MIA county fair in st. Johnsbury was
an exhibition of carelessness on the
mart of workmen who left bonfire to
shoulder while they got dinner, the
result being that a wind whipped up
the flames and communicated it To
5000 worth of property. However,
there is no blue ribbon awaiting such
an exhibition.
