the reader to judge the speaker to

William Dudley Pelley Of ST.
Johnsbury, the short story writer,
has written his second book length
novel, "The Fog" It is receiving
very favorable reviews and is said
to contain message of inspiration
besides being splendid picture of
rural and small town life. The
Scene is laid in Vermont and should
have special appeal to Vermonters
everywhere for this reason. Mr..
Pelley's first book, "The. Greater
Glory" is a success also. having gone
through several editions. This sto-
ry raises motherhood above all other
callings, the mother who has sacri-
feed and sorrowed for her family,
having reached greater glory than
a woman can reach in any other way.
Mr.. Pelley appears to have reached
a footing with authors of wide repu-
tation with his second effort, "The
Fog"

How to Build Up Vermont.
Barre Times


w. S. RosslUers address at the
Greater Vermont association in Rut-
land recently contained much of in
terest and of real concern to the state
of Vermont Mr.. Rossiter pointed
out that two-thirds of the towns of
the state grow smaller at each CEN
sus. This numerical loss, while SER
lous, does not Of itself constitute the
worst feature of the census in those
owns; the worst feature is that
which the numerical loss repre-
sents- namely, the wiping out of in
1ustry in the towns and the ikeli-
.lood that industry will be restored.
Of course, with means of sustenance
wiped out, the population is bound to
sravitate away from those towns.
The way to keep the population,
therefore, is to maintain the industry
of a place, if not to enlarge upon it.
Mr.. Rossiter idea is that Vermont
is fundamentally an agricultural
state and tRt it is a mistake to
Tempt to ltroduce manufacturing
n this "outS of the way" section of
New England. Not all people will
lgree with him that it is too late
. consider the development of man.
featuring industries N Vermont, for
there are already many large and
s,ourishing industries of that sort es-
Gablished and giving evidence that
6here is a field for opportunity of
chat sort in Vermont; but nearly ev-
.ryone will agree with him that the
agricultural industry of Vermont
needs to have marked development
along proven lines. One Of the sur
est ways for the development of ag-
riculture, according to Mr.. Rossiter
is to market goods along the most
modern and systematic lines. He
urged the Greater Vermont associa-
ton to take, step toward develop
ing the market for Vermont's farm
products, saying that there are
splendid prospects in the large cities
which lie comparatively near the
farms of the state.
This advice is along the line of
suggestions already made to Yer
mont; and, if we mistake not, steps
have been taken by some Vermont
agencies toward bringing about a
betterment of the market of Yer
mont products. We believe there has
been an Improvement in this respect.
although perhaps not very noticeable.
Mr.. Rissiter's words-the words cf a
man who has made somewhat Close
study of matters of this nature-ought
to encourage the efforts alreads'
tarted and widen the scope of tn,
movement. We can build up our ar
-iculture while ut tho same time not
eorrettinr the manufacturing side. s
sid which IS really very important
to the state.

The Vermont press is not recelv-
ing with any great favor the idea
that generous portion of the mon

for publicity purposes is to be used
in issuing a publication by Gov. Hart

contain the -looked-for program
of progress which his excellency has
promised. If it is an ethereal and
volumnious as his campaign bunk

Vermont is adopted, we would like
to see a furt'.er cooperation OF the
state with the towns in securing road
machinery which some towns individ-
ually are not financially able to pur-
chase. One of the most important
road making machines in mind is
heavy rollers. These are needed in
cases where crushed stone or coarse
gravel is used and half dozen or
more neighboring towns could use one
to advantage.

An article in the Boston Trans

Massachusetts,, Maine or Connecticut
is that the Indians had virtually
cleared out of the country before the
white man settled it, and, except in
a few localities, were not present
during the settlement to repeat to
the settlers their own names for
places. Among the Indian names
