On Board La Bourdonnais,
We are just about to enter the
Bay of Biscay We are going right
along the seacoast, it is wonderfully
beautiful, all rocky The water is
very calm and blue and the sky is
clear. We have been having a lot
of excitement these last two days.
Yesterday afternoon we spied a very
pretty sailing vessel on the horizon.
1t was a beautiful sight; it was just
exactly like the one Columbus came
to America in. They evidently were
denly could see that our boat was
going toward the sailing vessel. A
couple of sailors from it rowed over
to our boat and told us their story.
They were Venetians and had been
lost for 90 days, with no favorable
winds and had not had a bite to
eat for three days There was a
lot of excitement We lowered a
huge sack of bread, some drinking

ear to ear and went away happy.
We arrived at vigo, Spain, during
the night last night We didn't
sleep much as the four hundred
steerage were all Spaniards, hilari-
GUS to get home even if it did mean
immediate enlistment. They simply
went wild and kept us awake with
their cries, La terra! La terra!"
1t scarcely seemed possible when we
awoke this morning and saw land
for the first time in nine days. Vigo
harbor is positively the most beauti-
full sight | have ever seen, and every
one was up just in time to see a
glorious sunrise. 1t seemed as
though we were in lake, as the
channel is very narrow and we seem
ingly were completely surrounded by
land. The horizon line was quite
rugged and the landscape wonder
fully beautiful. The town itself is
very picturesque, being built on a
rather steep hillside with an ancient
walled fortress on top. The build
ing were very good looking. all of
terra Gotta, very pretty; the streets
were very narrow and crooked paved
with cobble stones We were there
early in the morning, just in time

braids hanging down their backs.
their black shawls, pinned surplice

several oxen carts driven by bare

| The unemployment conference al
Washington may produce valuable re
suits, but they are likely to be of a gen
eral and rather vague nature coming
| into operation slowly. Not much immed-
late help can be expected 1t is pos
sible for citizens, acting as individuals
or groups, to do a great deal more to re-
Iieve the present industrial situation than
the conference can do for them.
The same thing may be said regarding
possibilities of governmental action, do
nestle or international. The present de-
preston is the result of general national
conditions and also of world wide cOndi-
tions. We cannot have real prosperity
in this country until American defation
has run its course, and until foreign
affairs nave become Strengthened out and
other nations that are part of the gen
eral economic machinery have got on
their feet again. That may take quite
while. How long, nobody knows.
Much, though, may be done here and
now to improve national, state and local
conditions. Every citizen is a cog in the
industrial and commercial machinery.
If every cog acts with intelligence, cour-
age and goodwill, the machinery is
bound to start moving in the right way,
with growing speed.
Every little bit of push helps. Let
every consumer who needs goods, and has
the money, go ahead and buy, if prices
are anywhere near right. Let every man
who needs construction or repair work
of any kind, and is able to pay for it,
buy materials and hire men to do it. Let
every man who is out of work, and able
to work, throw off pride or prejudice or
Incidence and take what work he can get.
at reasonable wage. Let every retail
merchant whose shelves are bare buy as
much as he can afford. Let the whole
saler do the same. Let every manufac-
turer, big or little, instead of marking
time and curtailing activity in every way
possible, adopt the positive, creative at
titude, and see how far he can go in re
newed activity and enterprise.
If the American people went at the
matter in this spirit for few weeks
there wouldn't be any more need of call
ing unemployment conferences.

After thirty years of married life, a
wealthy American. couple living in Paris
are about to experiment with a trial di-
vorce.' The husband has left for an
other city and is to stay away for one
year. If at the end of that time the
couple find that old bonds of affection
and mutual interest are stronger than
the forces which have driven them apart,
they will resume their married life. If
on the contrary, separation proves to be
the solution of their difficulties, they will
then proceed to a full legal divorce. The
idea is not altogether new. Temporary
separations followed by reconciliation
are as old as time. This case differs in
that the couple are not breaking in an
ger but after quiet elaboration, and al
though they live in a social world where
divorce is taken lightly and secured cas-
lily, they are going to give matrimony
fair chance.

THE MORAL MOVIE CONTRACT.

One of the biggest film concerns in the
country has devised a morality clause
which will be inserted in all contracts
hencefOrth concluded with its actors, ac-
tresses and directors. While this par
tlcular firm is in no way connected with
the Arbuckle affair, there is little doubt
that the action was inspired by it.
The clause as prepared is broad and
inclusive. Ii does not merely cover the
So-cailed thirteenth commandment
thou shalt not be found out" 1t pro-
vides that the person signing it shall
neither do nor commit anything to de-
grade him or her in society, or tending
to bring him or her into public hatred
contempt, scorn ridicule, or tending to
shock, insult or offend the community or
outrage public morals or decency, or tend
o the prejudice of the film company or
the motion picture industry"
If, in eleyating its moral demands
upon its employees, the film company also
9leyates its own security in the public re-
gard, that is fair deal. The measure
nay not entirely put an end to private
but it viii act as a whole
some check upon wholesale disregard of
aw written and unwritten. And while
such behavior is not habit with the
great majority of actors and actresses.
N the films or in other stage realms. it
happens often enough to warrant pre-
gentive action

be equivalent to the material benefits
they derive. SO likewise with those who
have business dealings with hospital.
They must get out of the habit of think
ing of it as a rich institution that can
pay the long price for everything And
its employees must be taught that extrav-
agance cannot be tolerated
While it is true that mere contribu-
tons of money will not bring about eff
cheney they will go a long way toward
helping establish it, for the simple rea-
son that the way TO the public's interest
is through its poeketbook just as surely
as the way to a mans heart is through
his stomach. Once let the people of Brat
tleboro and adjacent towns become reg
ular contributors toward the hospitals
support and they will insist that their
money be efficiently spent They will
insist likewise that a detailed account of
all expenditures be made, and they will
be right in so insisting.
As for the necessity of the hospital
itself even those who have been lucky
enough to retain their appendices up to
date will admit that the town could no
more think of getting along without it
than without its schools. Equally beyond
dispute is. the statement that if a hospital
is worth having at all it is worth main
tanning on a basis commensurate with
the needs of the community it serves. In
spite of the way it doubtless looks to a
good many people, Brattleboro has been
extremely fortunate on the hospital ques-
ton. 1t has had for somewhere around
20 years, at the cost of not a penny to
itself, plant that many towns would go
deep into their pockets to obtain-like |

having this particular civic need supplied /

The MeddLer
eff the coat hts you. put IL on"

Without doubt a good many people
heaved a sigh yesterday when they read
of the proposed hospital benefit, thinking
of it as just one more civic burden added
to the many they are already carrying.
I And it is, for that matter. Yet it is a
| burden. or rather a responsibility, that
practically every town of this size has
| had to bear for years but Brattleboro has
escaped carrying up to the present time.
Now come the Thompson trustees, who
have made up an annual deficit varying
from $4,000 to $4,000 every year
since the hospital was built, and say it
is time for the people who get the benefit
of the hospital to take little more di-
rect interest in it and that unless they
do the institution cannot be kept up in
a way to Justify the trustees in contin-
uing their contributions. As The Med
dler understands it, the trustees object
less to the amount they have contributed
toward hospital maintenance than to the
results which the money has brought
about. In other words, they feel as if
the money had not gone as far as it ought
and they lay the trouble to apathy on
the part of the public, due to the long
held opinion that the hospital was an in
stitution with an endowment sufficient
to take care of all expenses in excess of
current income.
There is no doubt that the Thompson
trustees are justified in feeling that the
money they have contributed toward the
support of the hospital hasn't gone as far
as it ought to have gone, and there is
likewise some reason in their contention
that more interest on the part of the pub
lie will result in greater efficiency of op-
Grafton, but it will take something be-
sides mere contributions of money to
arouse the interest. To begin with, the
physicians themselves must learn the les
son that the trustees are trying to teach
They must look upon the institution as
place where the service they give must
