German War Reparation

The Allied supreme council has fixed the German
war indemnity at 226,00000000O gold marks about
600 to be extended period of AZ years
The first two years the annual payments fixed at
half billion dollars increasing quarter of billion dol
lars every three until the twelfth year when the
ments will total billion half dollars yearly the
tna 81 years Payments to be secured by customs receipts
Compared with the damages and loss Germany inflicted
upon the world the proposed indemnity not excessive and
the terms are moderate The cost of Gemanys mad attempt
to rule the world is many times the amount of reparaons
asked Germany probably spent much herself in four

The annual drain of the indemnity be any heavier
fact not nearly heavy, upon Germany the preWaT

people in time of peace much than their atonement
will cost them.
The justice of the reparaons demand is not at issue
The only question to be considered is whether not Ger
many pay the demanded without crpping the
ton, whether the is not large that it will initiate

grounds Of expediency should been made
moderate Germany cannot do the impossible but the Allies
have had time to study the problems and learn what Ger

resources.

Contrast
It's failure makes the yict'ry sweet
For care and JOY are kith and kin
who's never had to take defeat,
Knows not how good it is to win
The rough road Oft is hard to fare
But only they appreciate
The level miles, unknown to care
Whove had the rough to nayi-
gate.
Men weary OF che cloudless sky,
They need the darkness and the
rain
The dreary days to look ON high
And greet the sun with smiles
again
If there were never tears to shed
And never burdens hard to bear.
Though round us roses blossomcd
red.
Wed pass them by and cease to
care.
So stand to failure and the blow
And keep the faith when grief
appears
For out Of care shan glory grow
The sweetest smiles are moist
with tears.

GOVERNMENT AND TAXATION

Thomas Jefferson said that the
people who were the least governed
were the best governed.
Germany that had the most pater-
nalism and regulation of industry
and citizens was worst off.
The school teacher who makes
scores of new rules regulating the
children has the worst time with the
children.
The fewest and simplest rules and
those lived up to produce the best
children at home or in school.
Those who want everything regu-
lated by laws and commissions and
inspectors must pay high taxes.
II our industries and business and
movements and even personal habits
are put under government regulation
we must expect high taxes.
The harder the state or nation
makes it to start anything in the way
Of an enterprise that is going TO en-
ploy labor the harder times will be.

NO MORE ICE OBTAINABLE
FOR MIDDLEBURY FAMILIES
Dealer Lyman Can Procure Only
Small Supply from Milk Plant
for Wholesale Trade

Mlddlebury housewives can expect
no more ice until the zero weather of
winter will have replenished the store
houses of not only the local dealer,
Charles f. Lyman, but also of the
majority of the dealers of New Eng
land The unusually warm weather has
shrunk the supply that ordinarily is
preserved until the fall until now there
IS not a single town in which Mr. Ly-
man can purchase even a carload
On Friday last Mr.. Lyman notified
his customers that his supply had been
exhausted and that it would be impos-
sible for him to further cater to Other
than the wholesale trade. He had
bought a car load from Gardner Mass,
on which the melting shrinkage in
transit cost him more than $50 loss
The dealer in Gardner however wrote
him recently that the September hot
spell shrunk his supply by more than
two thousand cakes and that he could
not send any more to Middlebury. Mr..
Lyman lost two tons during the sum
mer on account of the prolonged heat.
Mr. Lyman will continue to- srp- ~
The wholesale trade, such as the mar
kets and the college with artificial ice
from the milk plant In order to
avoid the criticism of discrimination he
has decided not to fill any orders for
family trade, since he cannot obtain
enough of the ice to go around
The local dealer said that he had
been sold out of his own supply in
other years but that this is the first
time that he has been unable to pro-
cure enough to last the trade until win
ter on account of the general scarcity
He plans to enlarge his ice house this
year to guarantee against a repetition
of the shortage.
Similar conditions prevail in Vergen-
mes and Brandon. and in other towns
of the state. Dealers in Boston have
wired here for ice at whatever prices
the seller asked.
