HIGH KNEE, A GOOD
ARM SWING, NO JOG,
ALL HELP p RUNNER

In the illustration for this article
there Is shown a runners full leg In
two postions-one in which the knee
is raised about waist high. and other
in which 1t is raised only about half
as high.
When the partly raised foot is
brought to the ground It win touch
at 'x". But when the fully raised
foot comes down 1t win touoh some
distance ahead OF "X' at the point
'Z". Therefore. IL you would taka
pride in being known as the fastest
runner in your neighborhood, keep In
mind the fact that to get the longest
stride possible you should lift your
ltnee high. Even before the well-raised
foot ls brought TO the ground the toe
Is ahead OF that OF the partly raised
foot and Is over "Y".
Point the toe downward. Don't
touch the heels to the ground; always
run on the toe. At first the calves Of
your legs may be sore from doing so,
but that's q good sign and the aches
win soon so away. When the muscles
OF the front part OF the upper Ice
begin to hurt you will know you have
been lifting your knee high.
Some Of us walk with our toss point
ing out slightly. Care should be taken
to see that this is not exaggerated
when running. Point the feet straight

THE HOUSE.

The first field day of talk in the house
of representatives at Montpelier brought
widely contrasting results. First, the
house debated at considerable length the
proposed amendment to the lump salary
bill and adopted the amendment recon-
mended by the committee reducing the
lump sum from $500 to $500 and max
ing the pay of the members at any spe-
cial session 81 day. This will be gen
orally accepted as a fair and just set
Element of the salary question.
In the afternoon the house rejected the
report of the committee on highways,
bridges and ferries and increased the
amount of the automobile highway fund
to be expended on town roads (as op-
posed to selected state highways from
100000 to $150,00O a year. Demago-
query prevailed in this debate and solidi-
fed the small town majority in support
of the amendment.
This result is somewhat alarming be-
cause it shows a disposition to serve the
town rather than the state. The automo-
bile highway fund is limited to the in
'AiN AA''iA 'N'"liiopAic Ae6iH1i htiOilS anu
what is used on the unsolicited highways
cannot be used for the state system of
selected highways. The necessity of Sc
lected highways for state trunk lines is
established and the maintenance of them
is constantly increasing on account of
the increased use and wear of them. De-
creased revenue will not meet the de
mands of the selected state highways and
the houses action in taking money away
from them and giving it to other high
ways is a hard slap at trunk line roads
in the state.

The Value of Experience.
Woodstock Standard.)

If the voters of the various towns could
be here at the opening Of session and
see how quickly and inevitably old mem.
bers take the lead and high places, and
absolutely dominate the course of legisla-
ton, the doctrine of passing the Office
around and sending a new man each
election would soon be but remembrance
New members from small towns can but
watch the wheels go round. So long as
such towns send new men each time the
actual influence of such town in formulat-
ing state policies and exercising a con-
structive influence is nothing-abSolutely
nothing Old timers say that less than
20 men do the real work, and that a good
third would not be missed if they did not
appear in the house.

Vermont Crops.
IRandolph Herald. }

If a Eermonter out in the Middle West
were to claim for his state the distinction
OF being the greatest corn growing state
in the union he would probably get
laughed at-until he produced the United
States crop report showing that Nermont's
average yield per acre is larger than that
of any other state. With our short sea-
son this is phenomenal. In other agricul-
tural staples it is an eye-opener how far
up in the list little Vermont ranks. In
spite of the big price slump last year,
owing to larger production, the total value
of corn, oats, rye. spring wheat, barley,
buckwheat, potatoes. hay. apples and
pears fell off only from S42,SO3. 200 to
$41 $50 200. To this add the big dairy.
poultry and egg production, the maple
sugar livestock and wood and lumber out
put and the value will approach $780,
100000. Texas made big holler because
her agricultural output exceeded billion
dollars last year. counting everything.
Texas is IS times as large as Vermont
and If she had done as we'll accordingly
as this little barren" state with its ''aban-
dOned farms her output would have been
not less than twice what it was. Some
of these facts about Vermont farming
ought to be shot into those people out
west who pin faith on one crop alone and
miss about half the time. The Vermont
farmer is not getting rich one year only
TO go into bankruptcy the next. but is
steadily sailing down little year by year
and seldom slipping a cog backward. It's
a safe and steady business, when safely
and steadily followed.

THE WAY TO HELP IRELAND.

Citizens who talk lightly about the
United States government recognizing
the independence of Ireland forget how
Americans in the north felt about it
when Great Britain did that for the
south during the Civil war. The bit
terness is not ended yet 1t is quite
possible that the British people are as
sensitive as Americans about having for
eign nations butt into Il domestic quar-
rel-and the Irish controversy comes
in that category.
There is no question, among the ma
jority of intelligent Americans, as to
the moral merits of the Irish cause.
Americans believe in self-determination
and like the Irish people, and would
like to see the Irish as free as they want
to be. There is much question, however,
as to the proper methods to be pursued
for the attainment of that end.
1t should be self-evident to any Amer
lean citizen who knows his country's
history and traditions, and who really
puts America first, that the United
States government has no business in
JcfIefInS IN the irish matter. 1t should
be self-evident that this is a particularly
bad time to pick a needless quarrel with
Great Britain, when the peace and prog
ress of civilization depend, as they never
did before, ON the great Anglo-S Saxon ma
tions standing together 1t should be
Self-evident that moral suasion is the
remedy to apply in this case-the only
legitimate remedy and the only sensible
one.
The British people realize that they
need the friendship and moral support
of America, to recover from the devas-
tating war and hold their loose empire
together. Antagonism never gets any
where with an Englishman. Friendly
appeals and moral appeals do. The mar
shalling of the moral sentiment of Amer
lea in Ireland's behalf, informally and
unOficially. is the only effective way
to accomplish anything substantial for
Ireland.

The Common Gold"
BARRE Tines


Nearly half the school was detained at
home last week with cold" says a CORE
spondent to The Times from an outlying
village. Was there any more proof needed
that the common, everyday disease,
known as a cold" is really contagious
and ought to be guarded against just as
much as smallpox or diphtheria? Let a
child with cold go into a schoolroom and
begin coughing and sneezing and he will
soon scatter the germs of the cold
throughout the schoolrOom. with the re-
suit that within a comparatively few
hours other children will begin coughing
and sneezing, thereby adding to the agen-
cies at work in putting the school practi-
cally out of commission. If due proven
tive measures are not taken on the part
OF those not yet afflicted with the cold and
II the cOugherS and the SneezerS are not
eliminated forthwith in order to prevent
further spread of the germs. nearly half
the school will be so sick that they can
not attend classes. These so-called colds
The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1921-01-29

in and of themselves are not particularly
dangerous, albeit they are very disagree
able; but if they are allowed to continue
and become aggravated they are apt to
turn into any one of several dangerous
channels, such as the influenza, pneumG-
mia, etc Then we have not an epidemic
of the comparatively mild colds, but an
epidemic of such virulence as to carry off
people by the dozen once the greater dis
eases get a firm foothOld We are in
clined to overlook the dangerous POSSIBLE
ties of the common variety of disorder
known as a cold, even failing to realize
that it is a highly infectious disease. The
only sure way to keep down epidemics of
this minor nature, but of grave potential
tiles, is to impose a complete or partial
quarantine on the persons 50 afflicted.
CougherS and SneeZers should be banned
whether it be in the schoolroom or any
public gathering place. a recent report
had it that preacher in a Massachusetts
college promptly ordered out of class any
person who gave vent to a single sneeZe.
That was surprising treatment but en-
tirely reasonable. 4 cold is an Infectious
disease and it travels by the Sneezing pro-
cess quite swiftly. 1t should be guarded
against just as much as smallpox or diph-
liberia should be guarded against.

STATE FINANCES.

Olin Merrill of EnOsburg Falls appar-
emily has not lost his ability to analyze
financial questions, as evidenced by an
interview in the Burlington Free Press
regarding the financial condition of the
state of Vermont. He first shows that
the issue of 81 ,J00,00 state bonds, pay
able $4,000 a year for period of 80
years, was unnecessary. This bond is
sue will cost the state before it is paid
$500, 469.S0, or an annual payment of
$50. S4S.96. He states that all but $131. =
075.66 of the $1,452, 475.29 bonus paid
Vermont soldiers was paid as current
expenses during the years 1917, 1913,
1919 and 1920 and that this $131 ,07J.6G
could have been paid from the surplus ac-
quired under the 40 cent state tax
Against Governor Clements alleged
surplus of $2,950,O00 there are unex-
pended balances of appropriations al
ready made of 81, AGA, 2S9.95 which re-
duces the surplus to much smaller fig
ures. In fact there viii be no surplus
if the expenditures recommended by the
budget committee are authorized, but, as
| Mr.. Merrill claims, n deficit of ST 80
j2S to be met by state tax of 30 cents
on the dollar of the grand list.
| Mr.. Merrilfs exposition of the finan-
cial situation of the state undoubtedly
will be remembered by the legislators
when considering the many proposals for
| special appropriations that are before
them.
