CROSS TAG
DAY TODAY
Girls Out Early With Boxes to
Boost Home Service
Fund

| TAG DAY sos
At an early hour this morning,
although the air was quite chilly,
| the annual appeal of the American
Red Cross was given another boost,
when groups of girls from the local
Y. M. III. A. and Girls Club came
forth to assist in the annual tag
day work. -+fN an- So
The girls with a small box in one
hand a string of Red Cross tags in
the other, will patrol the different
streets all day up until a late hour
tonight appealing to the generosity
of the passeroy, that may add to
the local chapter going "over the
top"
In order to have the same amount
of girls working at all times dur
ing the day, a schedule has been
arranged so that each girl will
work about two hours. The local
Roll Call chairman would also like
to hear from other girls about the
city who are willing to give a few
hours of their time to help the
cause. Anyone wishing to help will
kindly appear at the Roll Call
headquarters, Room IS, First Ma
tional Bank Building.
With but little time left the local
chapter will endeavor to make its
big jump today. The drive has been
or two weeks, with favorable re-
turns, and with today's results and
final rturns from the plants and fac
tories, Thanksgiving Day will be
well celebrated.
The canvass drive is finished. with
nine out of ten families going 100
! per cent. and within the next few
days it is expected that many of the
plants will go 100 per cent. So far
the office of the Roessler & Hass-
iacher is the only plant building
that has reached this mark.

Nature does not do it. Man can
not do it..
For hundreds OF years, in what
are called the civilized nations OF
the world, women have been looked
upon somewhat as children.
A feeling of what is called chiv-
airy has grown up as a consequence
of this attitude. Men are taught
that they must give women many
courtesies and considerations which
men do not give to each other.
Every one with common expert
ence knows that in every way, the
law has been both made and admin
istered to give women privileges
which men could never claim. If 9
man kills his wife ne is almost sure
to hang. But a wife can kill hei
husband and run little risk Of pun
ishment.
If a man strikes his wife, he is 6
brute and no sentence is too severe
But let a woman strike her husband
or nag him, or make his life unbear.

conduct and says he deserves 1t.

ROBBERY CHARGE MADE

The police are investigating a rob
berry charge which was reported to
Lieutenant John Norris last night.
1t is said Adam Vitkovics of 730
Catherine street was robbed by a
boarder.
Officer Michael Patten who was
detailed to the Catherine street
home learned that a suit of clothes
values at $50, two pair of pants
worth $14. two pair of new shoes,
two suits of underwear, n gold
watch with the owners name on
same, one silver ring and a gold
ring with the owners name on it,
comprised the stolen loot.
According to information obtained
by Officer Patten, the two men went

8. Cases in which women are tried
for murder usually involve circum-
stantial evidence only. A man may
be tried for murder arising out of a
robbery or some ase in which d.
rect evidence of the past crime may
help to prove the murder.
But when a woman murders some
one it is apt to be through jealousy
or some personal reason. Women
have murdered for life insurance,
but in general, personal reasons are
involved oftener than with men
and, because motives and the work
ings OF the human heart are SO hard
to trace, the murder case against a
woman is really harder to prove
than the case against a man, which
so often arises out of some other
crime.

Why is it almost impossible to
get convictions of women in muir
der cases?
The Evening News through NEA
Service put this question to three
of the foremost jurists of America
"a Judge, a prosecuting attorney
and a famous defense attorney.
Judge Florence E. Allen of Cleve-
land, the first woman ever to sit on
a state supreme court bench,
speaks for the judges. Judge Allen
won wide eommendation for her
handling of several murder cases
when a common pleas judge.
Thomas Lee Woolwine, nationally
famous for his prosecutions of
women in famous murder cases, and
who recently convicted Clara Phil
lips of second degree murder in the
hammer Staying" case, gives the
prosecutors opinion.
Clarence Darrow, of Chicago,
pre-eminent as defender in many
murder eSses, tells the reasons from
the standpoint of the defense.

women Are More Clever
BY Judge Florence e. Allen
First Woman Criminal Court Judge.
just Elected to Ohio Supreme
Court

CLEVELAND, O.-There are a
number of reasons why women are
so often acquitted in murder cases.
Here are some of them:
L. Men have always sat on Juries
and men instinctively shrink from
holding women strictly accountable
for their misdeeds. Now that we-
men sit on juries, I expect the per-
centage of convictions in cases of
women to be higher.
2. Women are, more clever than
men in arousing sympathy. | had

Severe on the 1921 Legislature.


A newspaper in the northern part
of Vermont claims that all represent
atives in the state legislature of 1921
should be refused second election to
the office. This statement is made
for the reason that this newspaper
believes that no great change in econ
omics can be effective until new set
of representatives, all elected on the
platform of economy, are installed
into Office. For some reason in re-
cent years, no matter how the gov
ernor may have advocated economies,
the legislature has followed along in
the old system of making more ap-
preparations than a small state can
comfortably stand. With the popula-
ton of Vermont gradually growing
less and with the grand lists of some
towns certainly not growing any
larger it is time for thinking people
to demand a change in state manage
ment. All candidates for the Office of
representative or senator ought to
give their solemn word that they will
work for the accomplishment of a
short session of the next legislature
and for a policy of general economy
A small state like Vermont ought
to get good government at a min
imum cost yet figures show that Yer
monters are paying more for what
government they get than do many
other states, per capita.

"Forty million dollars annually can
be raised for road building and main
tenance by tax of one cent gallon
on gasoline" This statement was
made recently by Thomas H. Mac
Donald, chief of the bureau of public
roads, United States Department OF
Agriculture, in urging a re-adjust-
ment of sources of revenue SO that a
larger proportion would be paid by
the road user and lesser percentage
from state or local taxes.

Foreign Comment About Us.
(Stanstead, P. O., JournaD

Mr.. and Mrs. Gilbert Gross of Or
leans are at their cottage at Brown
ington pond. This is new resort
in Orleans county, and come to think
of it the surroundings of this pond
are beautiful. Gilbert Gross would
not be lsred to place unless it were
just that. This is pond of about
hundred acres, lying east of the
highway from Derby Center to
Bloomington village.
Now the Bennington Banner states
editorially that "Derby has the best
roads of any town in the state and
they were built under the supervision
of Stoddard B. Bates" Evidently
what some have chosen to class as
3Bates Cock Sureness," is really eff
cheney after all. The Banner man
also says that "Bates' removal from
the head of the highway department
by Governor Hardness was mis-
of the incumbent in office to be re-
moved. To be deprived of a mans
services, sometimes clears the atmos-
phere, and if the man removed has
been giving honest service he will be
called back. Such a man can afford
to bide his time.
A few southern New England hik-
ers have been climbing such high
points in Caledonia, Essex and Or
leans counties as Barnet mountains,
some elevations in Peacham and Rye
gate, Danville Green, the brow of the
hill at Molly Falls, Walden heights,
the half dozen knobs and hills in
Hardwick and Stannard, like eleva-
tons in Waterford, Kirby, Lyndon
Burke, Sheffield, Wheelock and SUIT
ton, the real mountains about Will
loughby lake and the palisades OF
Lunenburg, and they have written
columns about the wonders of these
regions, as if it were all virgin terri
tory. To these people it was undis-
covered country. To complete the pic
ture they should have seen Willough-

people as have been seeing these
wonders in picturesque beauty, have

Visit the Boys at Fort Ethan Allen
BARRE Times)

The official invitation to the people
of Vermont to visit the camp of the
172d regiment, Vermont National
Guard, during the fifteen days. stay
of the regiment near Fort Ethan
Allen would not have to be repeated
in order to draw a crowd of Vermont
ers. AS a matter of fact, there is
likelihood of being so many visitors
that the work of the camp might be
interfered with to certain extent,
however much the civilians may strive
not to encroach on the time of the
soldiers. Vermont people desire to
know what progress has been made
in the states military department
and they will be sure to take advan-
tage of the opportunity to see the
regiment in camp activity.
