Vermont's Greatest sally.

innate, 1900 people? Even il held in
our most populous city 1t would be o

that $4,000 or 10000 would be neare'

According to The Outlook these
people came from everywAere-

Hudson, Lake Champlan, and beyond

Daniel Webster in the great Harrison
presidential campaign, and It was
then and there, according 10 poiiucai
observers, that Vermont acquired
that political frame Of mind that made

It was founded and stay within the

And mark the men Who fleer and

And wear a scorrful face.

And YOU will find, | think,
That Chaos has arrived again,
And Art is on the blink
The painters queer as queer can be
The sculptor is as bad,
! The poets singing off the key,
The music-maker's mad,
Thus will they greet each rising star
So will they blight and blast.
And rail against the things that are
And harp upon the past
These scolfers. these obstruetionists
These fossiis-who are they?
/ The glad young, mad young futurist;
Who prance around today.

THRILLED BY STATE LINES"
English Woman Surprised at Sim.
pIicity Of Crossing Boundaries
in the United States.

Ike the feeling of crossing from
one state into another, especially as
the American states are as big as Euro
pean countries. Especially also az
there is only stone TO mark the
division, and the transit Is as simple as
going from one county to another.
Al Ticonderoga YOU cross from New
York state to Vermont, or from Ver-
mont TO New York state. This might
seem an important process. Actually,
you stand on one shore and toot your
horn, tubing soft drink the while
aud presently vessel appears which
Is none other than a r00my red punt,
propelled from the side by small
launch. The punt let's down 4 tall
board. the motor gives a hiccup over
It, and there you are until the process,
reversed takes place on the other side.
This is one Of the few ferries by means
OF which you span the great water
ways from New York to Canada
waterways over which, most of the
time, bridges are unthinkable.
1t is also the gateway from the Green
mountains in the Adirondacks, blue
and shapely, and from the one you can
see the other on either side of Lake
! Ch0mplaln, and between the two on the
/ sparkling blue surface of the lake plies
Il little white steamer, bearing visitors
to the most historic spots of North
America, and taking the place of the
/ birch bark canoe with its load of ln-
dams, who also had their own par
ticuIar interest in historic spots.
