WELCOME WOMEN INTO GOV.
ERNMENT

The opening reference in the mes
sage was the fact that this is the
first assembly in which woman has
held a seat representing a Vermont
constituency. The governor welcomed
women into active participation "in
representing our people" saying that
"women's coming into full equality in
suffrage BODIES we'll for humanity" in
asmuch as woman is the most natural
representative of the home.
WARNS AGAINST SECTION
ALISM
Governor Hartness made a strong
NIT the influence of sectional ambi-
irons to influence unduely legislation,
which is for the state as whole. "Our
greatest achievement for our home ac-
ton is to be attained by joining with
others to accomplish the best results
for the whole state and in the sub
mergence of sectional interests" he
declared. And again he said:
"There is definite and imperative
obligation that holds us to making the
best use of our energies. We can ac-
complish this by team work, cordial
relationship, state spirit, faith in each
other, tolerance of the view of those
with whom we can not agree and rec
ognition that every member has some
definite knowledge of some one branch
that may be of the greatest value.
We must recognize that we are here
not to obtain special favors for our
own section or for several at the ex-
pense of the homes of other sections" !"

MUST ELIMINATE WASTE

Declaring that every dollar wasted
is needlessly taken from the people,
Governor Hartness urged the adop-
tion of business methods in carrying
on the administration work of the
state. "In expending state funds"
he said, eve must keep ever in mind
the actual burden which always rests
upon the people to raise money. We
must know how hard it is for our
people to pay the tax levied, that every
dollar wasted is taken from the peo-
pie who would have otherwise spent it
for family needs"

The Southern club has reached it's full quota of 1000 members.
 This is the latest news of the or ganization, and to celebrate the event, handsome year book has just been issued with roster of the membership.

 In addition to all this the club has a most progressive and efficient sec retary, having been fortunate in ob taining Clarence Lloyd. prominent Kiwanian and former city clerk, who went thoroughly qualified to the club after having been secretary for Ro- tary and the Automobile clubs joint ly. He is hustler.
 The organization is one of the most progressive and exclusive of the city, and each day entertains probably sew eral hundred guests for luncheon and dinner. This year is to be one of it's most brilliant seasons, and various dances and parties of all descriP lions are being planned.
 The sum of s7,000 has been spent in the buying of new draperies for the club, which has been completely done over this summer. New oriental rugs, very costly, have been added,

 The petitioners askSethe courts to enjoin the officials of the county to levy a special tax of five mills on the dollar to be used for paying for the bonds. and that the fund collected be paid to the bank annually or be given to some bonded trustee to hold until the time when the bonds fall due.
 A temporary injunction requiring the officials to add the five mill in crease to the assessments for the fis- cal year beginning October l. is also requested in the petition
