which means that they can see a

Senators, which Vermonters will
read with interest and be proud
of the records of these men:
Senator Carroll Page of Vermont
is the oldest member of the United
States Senate. He announces that
he will not seek reelection, and he
will be more than 81 years of age
when he retires in March, 1928. He
was elected to the Senate in 1908 to
fill the vacancy caused by the death
of Senator Redfeld Proctor. He
entered public life So years ago, and
his reputation is that he has always
given the best that was in him.
While not one of the forceful
figures in the great council of the
nation, Senator Page has been most
faithful in the performance of his
duties, and has the respect and good
will of his comrades. Mr. Dilling-
ham, his fellow Senator from YER
mont, is only few months younger,
and when his time expires in March,
1927, he will be in his Saith year.
The aggregate services of these two
Senators and Senators Proctor and
Justin S Morrill,, their predecessors,

sentation of the green mountain
