that If children say 'ft'' and which"

regard them as they do the lifeless

Of the registrations came during March

ing up of spring activities might have
been expected to give employment to
more people than in the winter months
The situation is not at all reassuring,
or indicative of the resumption of nor
NAL business for some time. The in
crease of dodgers" is probably ex-
planned in part by the fact that the
closing down of industries in the larg-
er centers OF population mas driven
men back into the agricultural states
in the expectation of securing tenn
porary employment at least on the
farms. Farmers who, are in need OF
help at the present time would prob
ably find their wants satisfied by fill
ing their applications at the police
stations in any of the larger places of
Vermont. Not all the dodgers" are
buns and persons of shady character;
many of them are honest, hard-work-
ing people who are anxious to get jobs
and quit their temporary rowing. These
latter would undoubtedly fit in well on
Vermont farms and would not be a
source of worriment to their employ
