TO ADVANCE VERMONT
INTERESTS.

The new state organization, to be
known as the Associated Industrie oil
Vermont, starts off with assurance Of
hearty cooperation from similar or.
CARNATIONS in 3S other states and from
the national organization with which
they are allied and it starts off, too
with consciousness of the great need
of practical efforts to encourage the
business and commercial life of the
state. Inasmuch as Vermont is the
Both state to form such an organiza
ton it is evident that we have been
very backward in taking the initial
steps toward building up our business
and manufacturing life through coop
erative efforts and collective planning.
Representatives Of a similar organiza-
ton in the neighboring state of New
Hampshire bring reports of the fine sc-
complishments Of their organization for
the state of New Hampshire; and it is
not unreasonable TO expect that the
Associated Industries of Vermont,
which is formed along lines sim
liar TO the organization in New Hamp-
shire, will be as successful in bring
ing about beneficial results. In order

France probably win reply to Ger
many that she prefers to do her owr
rebuilding in, the region devastated by
the Germans but will insist on Ger
many's furnishing a reasonable per,
centage of the cost of rebuilding. For
France to permit Germany TO go ahead
and do the reconstruction work accord
ing to the lstter's own ideas or even
according 70 French ideas under Ger
man supervision would be intolerable
to the sturdy, loyal people of the
French republic. France is sufficient
unto herself when it comes to this
work, although, naturally enough,
France demands some recompense from
Germany for the work which necessi-
tated the reconstruction. Therefore,
the proposal emanating from Berlin
that Germany is going to make an Of
fer of reconstruction is likely to be met
by a curt rejection by the government
at Paris.

Tonic Needed to Restore the Body's
Vital Power

An attack of the grip leaves behind
lit weakened vital powers, thin blood
| impaired digestion and over sensitive
nerves-a condition that makes the
system an easy prey to pneumonia

much stress cannot be laid on the i'm
portance of strengthening the blood
and nerves during convalescence.
Mr. B. W. Phelps of No. SO Amherst
street, Nashua, n H., had an attack of
the grip that left his blood depleted.
He says:
my back ached continually. dull
steady pain. When ! would get up sud
denly the pain would be like a knife
cutting me- My stomach troubled me
and l had bilious attacks and head
aches. I kept losing in strength and
was reduced in weight.

The late Charles Fl. Dunton, who was

school principals in Vermont il com

less efficient perhaps but yet to gain
the wide experience possessed by the
old school of educators. There are very

vermont's 1921 maple sugar season,
while by no means failure, was not
up to the average yield. The farmers
put in good deal of labor for which
there was not commensurate return in
quantity of product. However, the
sugar makers have come to reckon on
the possibility of an off season and to
depend upon the law of averages. The
early spring initiated against them in
sugar making but it may help them in
other departments Of their farming ac-
itivities.

New York, February 4.-Reports from

As now, for instance, cotton is quoted in New York at 11.50 and 12.50 and you can get from five to eight cents per pound at Conway. If l remember right you said cotton was forth IT cents in 1903.

OBITUARY.

On March 23, 1921, our hearts were made very sad by the death of Mrs. Orvie Lee Crow-W Wright Her death was very sudden and unexpected. Orvie was 20 years old, and a gen. Neral favorite at home and in every circle of her acquaintance. It seems so hard for one to be taken so young in life, especially one who had such a sunny lovable disposition. She was very optimistic and possessed many lovable traits of character. She excelled in instrumental music and singing, and gladly used these accom- plishments for the entertainment of others in the home and elsewhere, and the latter for the praise of God She obeyed the gospel and was baptized about two years ago. She was joy to her own family and other relatives. The deceased left a devoted husband, father and mother, five sisters, three brothers, and host of near relatives and friends to mourn her untimely death. These mourn not as they have no hope. They confidently expect to meet her in the blessed home to which she has preceded them "It is but few short years," when we will be with our loved one where there will be no more death nor sad partings to grieve us. But still the memory of sister in youth inspires me to sacred tears; inspires me to higher living, for l am not left alone. I must, as she, live for others, that I, too, may some day go home-A Sister.

 'We are not trying to take the at titude of a reformer, but we, like a great many other people of Morrilton think the time has arrived when a reformer is very badly needed.
 Playing poker for money or gamb- ling is a violation of the law and the penalty for the violation of this law is very severe. Whether those who compose the club play for pleasure or for gain the penalty is the same and the law is broken the same as it is with professional gamblers.
 Our laws are nothing but the ex- pression of the will of organized so- ciety, prescribing rules of conduct for it's members so that each one will be assured of life, liberty and the pur- suit of happiness That which society wills society must be ever ready to back up, and in order to enforce these laws is the only reason peace officers are elected.
 "The grand jury, according to their report, may at later date hold a special session, at which time some very astonishing facts may be ex- posed.
