SCHOOL SPIRIT
AND SUPPORT

The Glenmora high school
opened its athletic season when
|it triumphed the strong Vile
Platte five last Saturday to the
tune Of 21 to IL. This. was real.
ly one of the very best games
ever witnessed on the local court
The only sad feature of it all was
to see just how few and what lit
| tie support our school teams are
getting, to think less than two
dozen people there to see their
aWn boys compete in wholesome
and necessary sports?
Last year very little interest
and support was given to our
school teams, financially as well
as good words. No team can ex-
pect to win unless it knows that
it has some support. Why was
lour baseball team a successY
That can be easily answered
because every one Of us. backed
and pulled for it to our utmost.
I'VE are glad to know twas, and
hope we have a stronger nine TO
represent Gienmora next year
Now during the school term
why not get behind and pull for
our school and its teams2 We
need the old pep and every one OF
us must fall in line. Every time
our school teams play q visiting
| i've, we dent make enough to
pay expenses Last Saturday
there vas q deficit of $50. 90 to
pay expenses for The Vile Platte
five. Glemnora IS your school!
Its teams are yoursl Throw q,
way the hammer and get the
born!

HARDWICK BIG
ATTRACTION
FRIDAY NIGHT
With Reputation to Sus-
tain Hardwick to Fur
nish Real Contest

Friday night the combination
American Legion company ID
quintet will meet the rejuvenated
and revamped Hardwick basket
ball team. The latter is coming to
St. Johnsbury determined TO an
mex the contest and will leave no
tone unturned to accomplish that
fact A battle royal can be eX-
pected and a goodly turnout Of
fans are planning to witness the
event.
At the beginning Of the season,
the Hardwick manager was cray
ing for a contest with Manager
CaswelPs team. At that time
Hardwick was not equipped with
the fast material that it now
boasts. A game with the fast st.
John bury quintet would have
been out of the question. So
Manager Caswell, ever mindful of
staging q real contest, said to
the Hardwick manager, "Go
ahead and get reputation. When
you get your reputation, then we
will play you"
SO the HardWick manager went
ahead and collected fast team,
bad them drilled thoroughly in
the rudiments Of basketball and
scheduled games with fast teams
all over the state. Hardwick play
ed Newport and beat that team on
it own floor by fair score. Then
Morrisville was trimmed, and the
Burlington Independents were
taken into camp. Other basket
ball quintets fell by the wayside.
Now Hardwick has real reputa-
ton.
The Hardwick basketeers have
developed a fast sweeping attack
that is bound to make things hum
at the Armory Friday evening. If
St. Johnsbury win, Coach Burch
will have to send his men through
their best PAGES.
Hardwick and not Springfield
will be the attraction. The game
with the latter team was cancelled
by Mgr. Caswell because he felt
that a team, like Springfield, evi-
IDENTIFY the inferior of st. Johns
bury, would not insure good
match for the local fans to watch.
But Hardwick will furnish real
scrap. With her newly gained rep
utation to sustain in basketball
circles Hardwick will strive to
break up St. Johnsbury's string of
victories on the local floor

The Navy That We Need

Secretary of the Navy Daniels is at
it again. Says he: II am opposed to q
special agreement of any. sort. But
agreement or no agreement, the United
States must have a navy equal to any
in the world"
There is no navy now existing that
is superior to or even comparable with
that of this country except England s.
Hence when Secretary Daniels insists
that we shall have a navy equal to
that of any other nation, he must of
necessity refer to England. But why
should we compete with Great Brit
ain? What sense is there in striving
to outshine, at enormous cost, a fleet
with which we are in no danger what
ever of fighting?
The Hearst publication, the New York
American, frantically proclaims that
every man ought to know" that the
Japanese Navy would be side by
side with Englands navy whenever it
was the cue to attack the United
States" No intelligent person knows
anything of the kind, and the one
who makes such an assertion must be
either knave or fool. If he is a
fool he is to be pited. but he is none
the less dangerous because he might
cause others to believe what he says
is true. If he is a knave, he is a dis
tinct menace because he can have but
one object-to create i'll feeling and
egg on hostilities
What the United States needs is an
efficient navy, but not competitive
one. England must always maintain a
powerful fleet because she is dependent
upon supplies from abroad to keep her
alive. and she is close to the turbu-
lence which Bolshevism may spread at
any moment. But even in England
there is pronounced movement to
| keep the naval armament down to the
minimum of safety point. The build
ing of capital ships has been stopped.
There is nothing that threatens the
United States. We must protect our
shores, of course, but our navy can be
one of defence rather than of offence
Japan is in no position to attack US
The agreement which England has had
with Japan expressly excludes the
United States from menace. And ia
pan herself asserts that she is in
creasing her navy only because, of the
expensive programme which the Unit
ed States has in mind.

Helium Plant
Making ArgOn Gas

Fort Worth, Texas, Jan. 7-Finishins
touches are being put on the fedora,
governments 100000 helium gas plan,
six miles north of Fort Worth. and
operations on a large scale are ex-
pected to begin soon.
This announcement is made bv Lien.
tenant Griffin, who is in charge. as tho
representative of the navy department.
Inc last OF the machinery was Skinned
to Fort Worth before the first of the
year.
Established in 1917 at a cost of $50
600. the plant has been an experiment
STATION thus far. But the worth of the
gas and its economy for use by the
navy and army balloons have been
proved to the satisfaction of military
experts.
IN addition to the plant near Fort
Worth, the government also has con-
structed private pipe line from Pc
troila. which brings natural gas from
the Lone Star Companys wells right
INTO the plant. After the argon oualj.
ties' from which helium is obtained
nave been extracted. the gas ia re.
turned to the mains and burned hy

During war days. admission was denied
TO the public and only picked work
men were employed
The experiments at the station bad
been so successful before the armist;ce
mat 1t was predicted the use of tho
argon gas would speedily terminals
the conflict. However. no opportunity
was ever given of testing it out in
battle.
The gas is non-infiammable and nor-
combustible. It's value was discovered
before the war but the process of ex-
tracing it was then too costly n

agents have since projected an econon-
ical method.

ailures versus Advertisers

only Is per cent of those who tailed
last year were advertisers; or 10 put
IT the way Bradstreet's does: "a per
cent of the business failures of the
post year occurred among firms which
hid.rot advertise. Bradstreets in
formation is obtained by invostiga-
.on not by guesswork.
We have all heard about proof of
the pudding: we all like to think
ourselves from Missouri in the way
Of being shown. This information
puts us in the class OF Missourians.
We have been shown.
Now if ii be permissible TO follow
this fact with guess, we would sug-
rrst that the 16 per cent of failures
that did advertise did not advertise
wisely. However, all this should not
he necessary. for if there is any fact
we'll demonstrated and illustrated on
every hand, every day of our lives, it
is that judiciOus advertising pays;
also that newspaper advertising pays
best of all methods.

| Citizenship
Women
Individual

A bill which would make drastic
changes in tho naturalization laws
as they apply to women has been re-
ported favorahly by the House I'm
migration committee, and an effort
viii be made to have Congress ap-
prove it at the present session.
Under the bill women would no
longer derive citizenship from the
naturalization of their husbands. but
would be required to make individual
application for citizenship. Neither
would women lose their American
citizenship by marriage with aliens
as at present. During the war nu-
merous instances occurred where
American women had married I'M
naturalized Germans and Austrians
in this country and when the latter
were interned as alien enemies their
wives also came under the ban, even
though they were at heart good
American citizens. Beside the men,
tai and spiritual discomfort which
this situation caused, there were also
property tangles arising in the same
way. Wives and widows of aliens
who held property found that it was
very likely to come under the hands
of the alien property custodian. Not
only were these cases disagreeable
but many of them worked manifest
injustice because of the continued
existence of an ancient law which
rests on a principle of medieval civ
ilization. No one has yet been heard
to oppose the wish of the women who
have been active in bringing this
anomaly to the attention of the law
makers and who have been equally
active in trying to have new legis-
lation passed regarding womens
citizenship, and it would seem that
the bill has a good chance of going
through.
Other clauses in the bill relate to
reinstatement of expatriates, citi-
henship of children of naturalized
parents, educational qualifications
for naturalization and instruction in
Americanization.
