Governor Hartness referred to the
school situation as follows: I'm view of

Several paragraphs of the message are
devoted to tie subject of air transporta-

come into great period of development.
Our cost of road construction and our
ever increasing cost of maintenance will
more and more force us to use the airway

State Board of Education
Defends Present System

Significant progress has been made in
high school education and very Satlsfac-
tory results have been attained in increas-
ing attendance of boys and girls in and
through high school courses.
4 state teachers registration bureau,
established in Burlington in February,
1920, has rendered valuable service in sup
plying teachers for vacant positions
Rural communities, which have lost
heavily tower 2J,000l in population dur
serious difficulties in running satisfactory
schools in matters concerned with loss OF
scholars, transportation, location, repairs
and maintenance, and supply of teachers.
They win need continued study and help.
Recommendations.
The following matters are unanimously
and strongly urged by the state board OF
education
]. The retention, practically intact, of
the present code of state laws dealing with
public schools and the present state educa-
tional system.
,. That a central teachers training
college be established at Burlington, attl-
lated with the University of Vermont, TAX
ing advantage of offers by the Carnegie
corporation and the University of Yer
mont to provide respectively 500. 900 and
5000 900 for the erection of q building and
the establishment of such q school. That
the legislature appropriate $4,000 an
nually for the support of Misunderstanding
in this institution and in extension courses
in high school training classes connected
Herewith, and under its supervision, the
same to cover all expenditures for teacher
training under the state board of educa-
ton. That the present laws be amended
to empower the state board of education
training classes at Johnson and Castlet0n.
3. That state appropriations be in
creased for the ensuing biennial period,
particularly for:
a. More aid to struggling rural com
munitiPS.
b. Larger rebates for salaries of quail
fed rural teachers.
c. More assistance to towns paying
tuition for high school students who are
being instructed in other towns.
d. Liberal equalization fund.
4. That the state laws concerning cen
sus and attendance be amended to make
them more effective.
>. That Il comprehensive and intensive
program be adopted by the people and the
educational workers of the state for the
assistance, improvement and standardiza-
ton of rural schools and their work
g. That educational service and oppOr-
tunitieS for children beyond Is and for
adults be greatly extended.
d. That the Theodore y. Vail State
Agricultural school be discontinued as a
state institution.

Especial to The Reformer.)


That the present system of education
should be retained as the most desirable
for Vermont is the opinion expressed IN
the third biennial report of the state board
OF education, which will be distributed
within a few weeks. Some of the present
SYSTEMS advantages as summarized in the
report are the following:
1t removes education from politics, and
is based upon merit.
1t furnishes, at reasonable cost. state
wide expert supervision that is effective,
and that is subject to control and guidance
for the best interests of the state.
1t provides generously for financial aid
for rural schools, rural teachers, and
transportation where needed
1t establishes, through certitication,
proper standards for teachers.
1t provides for the organization in small
communities of junior and junior-senior
high schools peculiarly well adapted TO
the places where they are located.
1t includes plan for financial aid to
towns and cities, based upon needs, efforts,
and conditions, flexible and effective
enough to accomplish definite and satisfy
ing results.
1t preserves local government and con-
troll intact. while insuring proper safe
guard of the states interests and stand
ards of educational attainment.
In these and other minor particulars the
system. the board believes. has accom-
piIShed very satisfactory results and has
distinctly promoted the well-being of the
public schools of the state.
The supply and training Of teachers.
particularly for elementary and rural
schools, is the most pressing problem at
present. The closing of the Johnson and
CastletOn normal schools in 1920 leaves
the state with only part of a complete sys-
tenn for training teacherS-the training
courses in high schools GA in numberl &.
These have been the chief source of supply
for nine years and should be continued.
4 strong, well-equipped, high grade
teacher-t training institution, located in a
city or large town convenient of access,
capable of providing ample practice facili-
ties and educational advantages, should
be provided to supplement and complete
the training afforded by the high school
classes, the board says.
The state agricultural school at Ran
dolph Center has had a successful expert
ence and is providing excellent training
at moderate cost. The equipment of school
and farm is good.
The Theodore \. Vail state agricultural
school. though furnishing splendid instruc-
ton and practice has been so affected
through changed property conditions fol-
lowing the death of Mr.. Vail, that it has
been closed pending action by the legisla-
ture.

Carloads of Booze Consigned to Diplomats
at National Capital

BURLINGTON, Jan. THAT one and
sometimes two large baggage cars of
liquor and other intoxicating drinks are
being shipped through Burlington per week
from Canada to Washington is the infor-
nation gained through authentic sources
today. The hard stuff is consigned to the
members of foreign legations in Washing
ton, where the o1ly liquor in the United
State can be purchased legally for bever-
age purposes The amount which is pass
ing through this city is enormous and
shows that either the foreigners can drink
more than most persons or that they are
generous entertainers to their friends.
One small legation within q few days
had 81 cases of one brand of Scotch
shipped to it. This shipment of 2ss quarts
was followed within q few days by other
shipments. The ears which are filled with
intoxicants are all under the guard of at
least two men. The cars are sealed and
the guards remain inside The lesser
shipments are bound in heavy boxes grid
ed with steel bands. These are carefully
checked up during their journey to Wash

Foreign War Vets Select Prescott
 As HeadQuarterS

 It is believed here that the fact that the old governors mansion here would be available for use as head quarters and also the fact that the post of the order at Whipple Bar racks here is one of the largest Tn the state were responsible for the selection of Prescott as state head quarters.
 The old governors mansion, log building, has been turned over to the city of Prescott to maintain as relic of early days in the territory Recently arrangements were made between the city, Yavapai county, the American Legion and the Veterans or Foreign Wars for the maintenance of the building with the understand ing that the two veterans organiza- tions could use 1t as their headquar r- ters. The state organization Of the Veterans of Foreign Wars were or fered quarters in the building, also.
