might paint the shipwreck with the
Cox aggai murphy crowd hanging
on one side and the McAdoo-Palmer-
Cummings faction clinging to the
ether, with William swimming to
the rescue-not to the rescue OF
either faction, mind you, but of the
ship.
That, literally, is what is going to
take place on March 18, Mr. Bryan's
birthday, when the commoner's pro-
gressive platform is scheduled to be
announced The Bryan plan, accord
ing to Judge RNC Roper, of Nebraska,
is to reorganize the privates in the
lines so as to develop an effective
fighting army. 1t is the aim of Mr.
Bryan to give control of the party to
the middle class democrats, leaving
the generals and captains to take
care of themselves.
1t was not so much the plan of re-
organization, we started out to speak,
but more as to the right of Mr. Bryan
to take the reins. In the races he
made for the presidency he polled
what may correctly be termed the
normal democratic vote-that is, he
held the party together. We all
know what happened to Alton B Par
ker. The party went so smash. The
two Wilson campaigns can be proper
ly classed as unusual. In the first
Wilson campaign, the republicans
were split in two. The second Will
son campaign was materially helped
by war conditions Then came the
Cox campaign. Glory be, the pieces
haven't yet been picked up. So,
with considerable accuracy, Mr. Bryan
can claim, that while he missed the
goal, he left the party in reasonably
good condition. Probably at no time
in its history was the party more
nearly in control of the privates
than in the Bryan campaigns. If the
generals and captains had stood their
ground we might have now been
speaking of our beloved fellow citizen
as former President Bryan. But
there are those among us who still
have hopes.
There can be no question but that
Miami will be the center Of deep
concern on the part of many demo-
cratic leaders who led the party
right up the hill and right down
again. They constantly will be
anxious to know the thoughts Of the
sage of Villa Serena, who is less
noted for his serenity in politics
than he is in his home life.

kinds but the most interesting were
the blue and snowy heron on their
long legs or with their powerful
wings spread in flight. There were
literally hords of them. The canal,
too, was interesting as Indians in
their Seminole garb and primitive
dugout canoes were being poled up
the canal, loaded to the waters edge
with provisions from town. Braves
and squaws did equal service in fur
nishing motor power while the
papooses and the inevitable dog
were to be found in the center. The
canal was full of jumping fish and
the fishers of the party caught all
we could eat for dinner, in a few
minutes. 1t took longer to fry the
bacon and the fish than it did to
catch them. But it was an interest
ing day as the 'glades are like the
desert, fascinating in their inevita-
BILE quiet.
Sincerely,
H. E. Parker.

At a meeting of the Board of
Directors of the Vermont Congre-
gational Conference and the Vermont
Domestic Missionary Society last
week, Mr. Charles H Newell, of the
Citizens Savings Bank & Trust Com
pany of St. Johnsbury was elected
Treasurer of the Society to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of Mr.
John T Richie. A budget for the
current year was adopted calling for
expenditures of $4,000. This will
take care of missionary work in
forty-nine different fields, in eighty
two per cent of which the Congre-
gational church has practically the
sole responsibility for ministering to
the Protestant people. 1t makes
possible as we'll advisory and super
visory relations with one hundred
and fifty other self-supporting
churches thus rendering service to
practically two hundred churches in
the State. 1t also provides for the
employment of two Pastors at-Large
in addition to the Secretary who
spends a considerable portion Of his
time in the field. On account of the
small endowment of the Society,
yielding an income of less than
$4,000 year, $4,000 of this expen-
diture must be secured in contri-
buttons from the churches. The
date of the financial canvass was
fixed for the week of April "a to
May LIST when the effort will be made
to raise not only the sum above
mentioned for work in Vermont, but
a total of $4,000 for Congregational
missionary work in the State, Nation
and world. Secretary Charles c Mer-
rill will have charge Of the cam
paign as last year. The annual meet
ing of the State Conference will be
held this year at Vergennes, the
date being May 1912. The Annual
Convocation of Ministers will be held

Dear Opinionites:
First and most pleasurable we have
more arrivals from the North. Mr.
and Mrs Burton C Warner of STRAIT
ford, Conn. arrived on Thursday
night, and they are dividing their
time between our home and the
home of Harry Burnes in Miramar.
They were delayed in getting away
from New York on account Of the
fog and so arrived in Jax late enough
Tuesday evening so they had to wait
for their Marmon to be taken off
the boat the next morning and it
was two in the afternoon before they
could get away. The 367 miles were
told off by 7.3O Thursday night. They
are making their first visit here and
they are enthusiastic in their enjoy
ment of the climate and the town.
We think another thirty-six hours
and we will have them boosters.
Ny daughter, Mrs Huntington, Of
Concord. N. H., arrived Friday noon
but it is no new experience for her
as she got the sands of Miami in her
shoes three or four seasons ago and
she comes South as naturally as the
birds who have better sense than
most humans in selecting the climate
most appropriate for the season.
We are net alone in having cur
friends and relatives. Leigh S Hall

Bird lovers in some localities re-
port that there has been a scarcity
of birds this winter. There have
been no chicadees, nuthatches, horn
ed larks, no snow building birds at
all. Some anxiety has been ex-
pressed by farmers and orchardists
lest there should be more than or
binary danger to vegetation from
insect pests this year, owing to the
absence of the common insect-eating
birds. Edward H Forbush, Massa-
chusetts state ornithologist, does not
share this opinion. He states that
birds always follow their natural
food supply and that the extreme
and severe cold weather of the past
two winters has exterminated the
insects. That the alb
sence of the birds presupposes that
the alternating insects are not avail
able this year and there is probobly
no danger Of insect pests. An I'M
usual number Of water birds have
been noticed by close observers Of
the coming and going of the birds
