CURRENT COMMENT
Appreciated Tribute to Vermont

Vermont is under deem obliga-
ton to the leading writers of the
country for their appreciated tri-
butes to the beauties Of the Green
Mountain state. The latest in
stance is to be found in the
splendid testimonial of Forrest
Crissey, who is a contributor to
the Saturday Evening Post, his
last articles in that publication
having had the title of dead
Timber" Mr.. Crissey who for a
number OF years had his summer
home in Wardsboro, is writing a
story the scene of which is located
in Stratton and Montpelier, and
those in a position to know say
that it is to be clean and whole
some, as would naturally be ex-
pected. Mr.. Crissey's tribute to
Vermont is as follows:
Vermont, the State of varied
but unfailing vernal loneliness: o.
glorious Green Mountains and
greener valleys; Of verdant peaks
and ranges whose scenic grandeur
is intimate and inviting; Of
treams that flash by winding
roadways in merry and friendly
fashion-no son of yours can
name his native State without a
thrill OF honest pride
Vermont, commonw aalth of
homes and cradle of indivi=ualism
whose people epitomize the Amer
lean principle of self-government
and still cling resolutely to that
pioneer institution the town meet
ing-may no native of this State
fail 10 hold his head high as he
thinks of the men and women who
carved this commonwealth from
the wilderness and defed the

Ladies' Choice

Following tn mention of Mrs.
Ransom's name as a possible can
didate for the legislature, Lieut.
enant Governor Foot spoke in
most complimentary terms of the
Castleton lady and intimated
that Castleton couldn't be better
represented.
Now comes Mr.. Henry f. Dew
ey Of Castleton, who joins The
Herald in seconding the nomina-
ton. He says Of Mrs. Ransom:
at is largely owing to her we'll
directed efforts that our teacher
training school is now opening
with a class Of mere than so, and
w fell that Mrs. Ransom has rem
dered a splendid service to the
town of Castleton and to the cause
Of education in this state"
incidentally, it is likely, according
to Governor" Foote, that Mis-
Edna Beard of Orange may be a
member of the Senate of 1923.

vermont, whose hospitality is
as open and sincere as it is simple
and unexploited; whose political,
like its family life is conspicuous
for its integrity-the State where
honest thrift is no cause for shame
and where the spendthrift has
scant pride in his scatterings,
where frugality is not accounted a
weakness nor forethought a folly
such a commonwealth can boast
Of unique distinction and afford to
smile at the jibes of cartoonists
and ioke-smiths.
Vermont, whose capital is as
rare a scenic gem as its Statehouse
Is an architectural jewel-those
who do honor to this state whose
sturdy Americanism is bred in the
bone will increase with the flight
Of years"
This is as fine a tribute as one
often sees in the English language,
and it may well have a conspicu-
Gus place in Vermont reading.

New Ruling On
Mail Delivery

Postmaster General Hays has
notified the postmaster that all
buildings whose occupants receive
the benefit Of city delivery must
hereafter be properly numbered
and equipped with private mail re-
ceptacles. A nation wide cam
paign will be inaugurated next
week to bring this about and on
Oct. 10 the carriers will report to
the postmaster the address Of
every dwelling and place of bust
ness not so numbered and equip
ped. The government will not in
sist on the installation of a mail
box, it may consist of either a
slot in the door. or a convenient
ly located box of any suitable ma
terial.
The department is taking this
step to avoid delay of mail
through return to the Office, to
prevent the loss of mail left on
doorsteps of vestibules either BY
the wind or by theft, and to obvi-
ate the necessity of patrons re-
spending to the bell at inconven-
lent moments.

transitory character of a great deal
of earthly success.
1t is amazing how quickly a man
drops out of sight in a great city
when misfortune begins to go
against him. The world looks at
failure as unattractive, even if a
mans failure is not from his own
fault.
The man who has had a rather
high position, and then fails to
maintain it, is really worse off
than the humber individual. The
latter forms his own ties among
his own type of people and is
happy and content. The man who
has climbed to a large degree of
success and then had hard luck, is
not at home anywhere. 1t is hard
for him to adjust himself to sim
pie people and the successful lose
interest in him.
This tendency to neglect the un-

ced in large cities. In smaller
towns life is simpler and a mans
worth is not much measured by
standards of money and display.
Many a man under circumstances
has met his losses by fortitude and
philosophy which made him new
friends. These values him for what
he was and NOR than replaced the
fair weather associates of days of
prosperity.
The worlds summary verdict
upon i'll success is a superficial
way of looking upon life. Many
men who have lost their money,
have yet gained in intelligence and
wisdom and sympathy as they
have seen their riches fly. Many
people who have slipped on the
steep ascent of life, yet have noble
qualities Of mind and heart.

Three of a Kind--The Best

We should judge by the regis
tration at the three Vermont COL
leges, Middlcbury, University of
Vermont and Norwich University
that these are days when the
fathers and mothers are unani-
nous in believing that a college
degree is the greatest legacy they
can give. Some thirty young
people from Waterbury are now
attending college, the largest
number in the history Of the town.
All agree that the more educated
people a community can possess
the more progressive it will be-
come. Fortunate is this state in
having these college institutions
and it is noteworthy that the
parents are taking advantage of
these higher educational institu-
tons by giving their sons and
daughters such splendid opportu-
nities.-Waterbury Record.

HOME

Give me a home where there's a
smile and song
With never a cross word or scowl.
Where happiness rules all the
day long
And there's never a snap or a
growl;
Where the good things are al
ways made better,
The bad always cut off in two;
Where the Golden Rule is lived
to the letter,
And no one ever acts blue.
Then each home would be al
ways perfect,
Each day the very best
That anyone ever dreamed of,
Or that anyone ever guessed.
Oh then what a happy world
What a perfect world this would
be,
For everyone else to live in
AS well as for you and me!
