1t is almost three years since the sign
ing of the Armistice brought a cessation
of actual warfare in Europe. Much of
the worst suffering caused by the war has
been relieved. Starving children have
been rescued and started little way on
the road to health. 1t is reported that
the American Quakers who have been
doing noble work in Germany are soon
to withdraw to devote more attention to
relief work in other parts of the world
where the need is more urgenha,
In spite of these gains it is still posi-
Bile for a visitor to Pankow, where a
childrcn's camp has been in operation all
through the summer, to describe most
pitiful scenes. There are still anemic
underfed children, children with ricketts,
and eczema, with ugly skins and de-
formed little bodies-all the aftermath of
war.
Pankow is not the only place where
this terrible result of war can still be OBJ
served. Other cities, in Germany and
in other countries, have their quota of
miserable children, some of whom may
become strong and whole, but many more
of whom will go through life Handicapped
by the evil start in life which war gave
them.
1t would be we'll if the delegates to the
Washington armament conference could
be made to think of the little children of
the world while they are weighing their
n arguments for. or agoinst tba I;nitotio,

gests Vermont to hundreds of thousands
who have added to the joy of life by tast-
ing the sweetness that comes from the
trees growing in the valleys of the Green
mountains. But it appears that the de
mand for maple sugar has not kent pace
with the growth of the country. The per
capita consumption has been steadily de-
clining. Now in the Green mountains
there are visions of n nation of maple
sugar eaters. with resultant prosperity for
Vermont and its people. If the West
could populariZe the prune and add to the
growers share in the dollars that were
paid for it, why cannot the East do the
same thing with maple sugar? The ques-
ton is Uppermost just now in the minds
of many of the Vermont folk
1t is a fair question. 1t suggests posi-

Why so much talk in this apple growing

only that the Vermont sugar makers will
be successful in their present undertaking.
but that they will set an example which
other New Englanders will follow with
profit to themselves and general benefit to
this section of the country.

Huntington Free PreSS.D
Encouragement is to be found in the
meeting of Eermont's district highway
commissioners with State Commissioner
Dix in Montpelier for the consideration of
the better drainage of our roads. Every
observing person who has driven through
different sections of the state must nave
been impressed by the sad lack of even
common bitches on each side of the road
way in n host of instances.
The thorough draining of the founda-
ton Of our roads would add immeasur-
ably to their endurance and condition. bur
more surface drainage would be a marked
Improvement to many of our highways.
We suspect that the trouble is the maxi
ing of a mountain out of a mOlehill.
Some people can never do anything I'M
less it is something big. and as a result
they never do anything worth while.
We are inclined TO cling to the control
OF our roads in our respective towns,
but when it comes to such a fundamental
thing as drainage, we say. Let George
do 1t, and turn longing eyes toward the
state treasury.
Now as a plain matter of fact any far
mer who knows enough to plow a furrow
to drain n little pond from the surface of
his wheattield, knows enough to pillow a
parativcly slight expense to drain the
surface water from his only means of
transportation. \ man who does not
know this much at least should never
be a road commissioner.
apparently we have many of this class
of men in control of roads, judging from
the number of miles Of roadway in Yer

tat so that during a rain the water runs
i'll the roadway. The next time you have
cut your auto. take a little pains to OBJ
serve how many such places you will find
in your own community as we'll as others.
- There are places where blasting and
more serious work than blowing is neccs-
sary for adequate drainage of our roads,
aad such expense naturally suggests a
special fund for the purpose As a rule,
however, we believe the town authorities
should do az much as to pillow a ditch for
surface drainage of roads. and that would
mean a tremendous improvement over OK
listing conditions.

GOOD NEWS FROM SANTA CLAUS

Retailers are looking for a good Christ
mas-a pre-war Christmas-according to
a trade survey. They are laying in
stocks of dry goods, jewelry, toys and
all sorts of gifts ION a most hopeful
scale"
1t is said further that retail prices will
average 80 per cent lower than last year.
and indications are that the holiday
trade on the whole will be much larger.
This cheerful message from Santa Claus
is taken as fairly dependable indication
that the industrial revival is not far
away.
The good news is passed along herewith.
primarily in the hope of helping to dis
pei the gloom as to business conditions,
1t may encourage the discouraged citizen.
At the same time it will do no harm for
the casual reader to take it as a hint to
prepare to do his Christmas shopping
early. At least he might start to get the
list and the budget within shouting dis
lance of each other before it is everlast-
ingly too late.
