In spite of the prolonged rains
the road from French hill in Will
liston to the checkerboard house

Richmond was almost entirely free
from mud, despite rain at the time,
showing that the gravel roads can
be made to furnish excellent travel
under fair treatment. Richmond is
learning this lesson.
This alienation of deep mud,
like the entrance to Montpelier, and
the well-rounded gravel roads be-
yond, was encountered throughout
the entire journey of 400 miles.
From Lancaster, where the timer
airy led into New Hampshire, north
to Colebrook, the party passed
over about 80 miles of the famous
Granite State roads. For short
distances this road is hard surfac-
ed, but it is gravel for the greater
part, and the condition Of the
gravel compared favorably with
the concrete, which had begun to
go to pieces on the edges particu-
larly.
The road across the north end
from Canaan to the Averill lakes
and the famous Quimby camps,
where the party spent Friday
night and enjoyed a fine lake ban
quet, was far better than some
of the roads in South Burling-
ton and other supposedly more
civilized communities. From the
Averill lakes region to the Island
Pond highway we enjoyed the ben
efits of the State appropriation for
a road that would connect that
northeast region with the rest of
the state without the necessity of
going into New Hampshire or

AUTO ACCIDENTS HERE
With five persons killed in aut

With five persons killed in auto
accidents in Vermont during the
last two weeks in Many and anoth-
er person so seriously hurt that his
injuries may prove fatal it would
seem to be high time to place on a
check on the promiscuous and
careless driving which seems to
be prevalent. Another matter
which bears directly on the situa-
ton is noticed III the result of an
examination by automobile in
spectors, held in Burlington yes
terday of applicants for auto IL
cense renewals. Out of 81 eight
were rejected on the ground that
they had sufficient knowledge of
an automobile to hold a license and
three of the eight rejected were
applying for professional drivers
licenses.
The solution of this state of af-
fairs would seem to be simple. A
decided check should be placed on
the easy manner by which appar-
emily, it is possible to obtain an
auto license. More rigid and care
full examinations conducted by the
authorities would result in fewer
incompetents holding licenses
which would result in fewer ac-
cidents. Besides these careful and
stringent examinations a sitter
penalty should be imposed on
those whose carelessness is the i'm
mediate cause of accidents. AS it
is now, a needless driver may al
most kill man and get off with a
slight fine. If the penalty is severe
enough, accidents will be brought
down to minimum, provided that
in the first instance, auto licenses
are not made almost as easy to get
