RAPS WOMEN
AS FRIVOLOUS
AND SHALLOW
Psychologist Says They Are
contented With Small Things,
ignorant Of Greater.
BY International New. Service.

LONDON. Aug. s.-"women are
eager to command servants, to
dominate a husband. and to have
men as suppliants at their foot
stools, but very few Of them know
anything Of the glory and happi-
ness of, hardships attending the
building Of nations" said DR.. Josiah
Oldfield, famous psychologist. in an
address here today upon modern
women.
DR.. oldfield believes that the
chance Of happiness II less for
modern woman than for those OF
two generations ago. His topic
was: Can A Woman Be Happy?"
In place Of the pursuit of knowl.
edge, DR.. Oldfield said. women are
carried away by a spirit OF In.
quisitlveness, It was not in search
Of knowledge that Eve ate the for
bidden fruit. or that Bluebeard q
looked room was opened. II was
curiosity.
Few women" continued DR.. Old
field, know anything OF the happy,
toilsome road that leads to wealth.
Their chances are lost by the
gambler element, which bids them
hope for a stroke OF luck or a
prize draw in the marriage lottery.
THE happiest periods in a woan-
ans life are under fifteen and over
fifty. Too often between those
ages woman is discontented and
consequently ia dangerous. Under
fifteen the maiden is engrossed
with pursuits OF childhood. Over
fifty she often acquires ideals to
absorb her attention"

Friends of Prohibition Listless,
(Morrisville Messenger)

1t is very much easier to sit back
and find fault than to do the work of
public officials. This especially ap-
plies to the work of police officers,
deputy sheriffs and prohibition en-
forcement officers. First, because
the fault finders do not know the in
side facts; second, because they do
not understand what the duties of
such officers are, as defined by law;
third, because they do not know how
much time the officers are really put
ting into their work or what they re-
ceive for it. The following from the
Bennington Banner throws a little
light upon the subject.
"The change in the office of pro-
hibition director has been made and
Bert S. Hyland of Rutland has sue
ceeded Collins M. Graves of Benning-
ton. Mr.. Graves resigned the posi-
ton because the work is disagreeable
from every point of view. The direc-
tor has no friends. The opponents of
prohibition sit up nights to fight the
director and his agents, while the
friends of prohibition do not back up
the efforts at enforcement and are
always grumbling because the work
is not more effective"
1t is universally conceded that Mr..
Graves made a very efficient official.
He was so rated by his superiors, who
much regretted his resignation, evil
IDENTIFY because of these fault finders.

toured east over Lunenburg heights
to Lancaster, N. H., thence north to
Colebrook and back into Vermont to
Canaan. From Canaan the route led
to Cold Spring camps at Forest and
Averill lakes where night was spent.
From here the route led to Norton
Mills, Island Pond, Charleston, Derby
and Newport. While the party was
not as large as it would have been
with better weather previous to and
on the day of assembling, the party
included car from Bennington, two
from Burlington, one from Hardwick
and a Boston car of trades people,
besides local car. Many were the
enthusiastic remarks about our lake
region, good roads and uniqueness of
the famous roller coaster road from
Island Pond to Norton Mills and the
northeastern part of Vermont in gen.
eral. The trip convinced the writer
that we did not know our own part of
the state well enough or appreciate
the wonderful scenic territory as we
should. There is here the foundation
and background for tremendous
summer business. The charm of
northeastern Vermont is unequalled
anywhere.

Beginning next week and continu-
Der 90 weeks) this paper will run
a series of especially prepared arti-
cles on 3sVermont's Government" by
George A. Burnham, teacher of
history and student of Vermont af-
fairs for Is years. The articles will
cover every department, official and
commission, tell the duties, salaries,
ETC., connected with each and will
prove valuable education in YER
mont affairs for any and all who will
read them. Women voters who seek
information will find in these articles
full knowledge of their new political
duties and all will get valuable in
sight into Vermont's government.
The publishers are to considerable
expense to run these articles and
trust everyone will read and keep
them. Mr.. Burnham will be sent to
Montpelier to go over certain phases
of our government with officials and
to better inform himself about GER
tain new governmental creations.
This series will be absolutely nom
political and are published at the, sug-
gestiOn of subscriber and solely for
the purpose of dissemination of
information which ought to be more
familiar to us all. Watch for the
first installment of these articles
next week.

Last week announcement was made
that 20 licenses were suspended by
Secretary of State Black for various
reasons, chief among them being in
toxicated drivers. Too many acct
dents are caused by drunken operat-
ors and the public is as much to
blame for this condition of affairs as
anyone. The story is told concerning
a recent fatal accident, that previous
to the car leaving town on its fateful
journey, it was known and noted by
several that the driver was intoxicat-
ed, that he was in the habit of driv-
ing while under the influence OF
liquor, and still neighbors and friends,
law abiding citizens, failed to take
means of having this dangerous thing
stopped. After all, most crimes and
misdemeanors are the fault of the
public, directly or Indirectly. Let US
stop finding faunt with state and local
authorities until we, the citizens and
people, are willing to do our duty
toward questions of law enforcement.

1t is announced that the Adnabrown
hotel in Springfield will be discontinue
ed as hotel and the place turned
into other rents because the place
does not pay sufficient returns. It
would be deplorable to have such a
hostelry go out of existence. The
town can hardly afford not to have a
good hotel and Springfield might take
a lesson from Barton on it's hotel
situation. In Barton the business
men bought Hotel Barton by forming
a corporation, spent some $4,000
above the purchase price in putting it
INTO the best possible shape and are
receiving satisfaction in having ira
yelling guests find comfort and plea
sure when stopping in town, if not
receiving pecuniary return on the
money invested as yet. A good hotel
is an asset to any town and when a
good hotel cannot be had one way, it
may be had another, as proven in
Barton.

1t is announced that the only teach
er training class to be maintained in
the county next year will be at Bar
ton. This is brought about by the
standard fixed by state educational
authorities which makes it impossible
for other places to qualify with a
sufficient number of Students Lyn-
donville has a two-year training
course and the only one-year course
in the entire northeastern section of
Vermont will be at Barton where am
pie facilities are available. Last
years work by the training class at
Barton under the leadership of Miss
Moulton was of the very highest
quality and received the strongest en-
dorsement of all who were knowing
to it's thoroughness.

The rains of the past two weeks
ending with what appears to have
been a cloudburst in one section of
the county and extremely heavy
thunder. showers in another section
caused much damage to roads, rail
roads, crops, buildings and in general
ways. An elderly person of observ-
ing nature recently said no such
damage was done by water in his
early years and said he was convinced
that the difference was in the loss of
trees and forests. No doubt there
is truth in this observation. Anyone
who gives the matter thought must
recognize a growing problem in de-
forestation and the flood and wash
out item is one of the things partial
ly chargeable to our depleted forests.

The women of southeastern Yer
mont are actively engaged in organic
ing and instructing themselves in
things political. This is a good thing
and ought to be carried out in other
parts of Vermont. The National
Woman's Voters league recently met
and state leagues are organized in
most states Why not some activity
of the women in political affairs in
this section of Vermont. We have as
able women here as in other parts OF
the state and they should have an in
terest in all political matters, for
politics concerns every member of
the family.

Questions Wisdom of Women Drivers
Randolph Herald and Newsl

randolph Herald and News)
The shocking automobile fatality
near North Royalton last week might
have been unavoidable under any
circumstance, in the conditions of
weather and road obtaining when it
happened. A slippery, rutty high
way, fronting close on a river bank
whether protected by guard rail or
not, is dangerous spot in which to
turn out. At the same time the que
ry arises whether a woman driving
can ordinarily handle this and other
trying situations constantly arising
on the road with the requisite skill
and strength that one in charge of
such vehicle should possess. These
ladies, five of them in the party, with
out male escort, were making jour-
ney that once would have been con-
sidered long. Doubtless the driver
under prevailing road conditions, was
fatigued and nervous. Even if ply
sically strong and long in practice, it
might have been her most trying ex-
perience. At any rate something
miscued and the accident followed. 1t
is a question whether the very COM
mon practice of entrusting to women
the operation of powerful motor cars,
both in plotting and such mechanical
attention as they sometimes require,
for long distances, day and night,
over all kinds of roads and going, is
giving sufficient consideration to the
very important element of safety.

The sum of 100000 has been al
lotted to the state of Vermont from
the last appropriation made by Con-

cation, according to word. received
by DR.. A. j. DeFossett, state inspec-
tor in charge of bovine tuberculosis
eradication, from the chief of the bu-
reau of animal industry in Washing
ton.
The allotment will be available

Legislature will match, practically,
dollar for dollar the appropriation
made by the Legislature for the pay
ment of indemnities on condemned

(U. S. Dept. Agri. Clip Sheet)
Although 48 states have dog laws
designed to protect sheep, many of
them are so poorly planned or so
poorly enforced that dogs still do
much damage to flocks, especially in
the farming states where focks are
small and dogs are plentiful. There
is need for improvement in these laws
but, says the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture, a poor law that
is enforced with energy may produce
better results in sheep conservation
than a much better law that is half
heartedly enforced. Dogs keep many
men from going into the sheep bust
ness, which is probably a greater set
back to the industry than the actual
damage done by them.

move to keep Vermont and Vermont
interests before the public Of the
eastern section of the country was
largely due to Mr.. Derrah's initiative.
1t is publicity of the right kind which
Vermont needs; and then, when the
rush of people becomes such as to
overrun the present hotel facilities of
the state, there is sure to be hotel
building boom. Capital is waiting to
be shown that there is a demand for
new and larger summer hotels before
investing in the proposition.

Join the Legion.
(Middlebury Register)

All eligible service men should join
the American Legion, and now is the
time to do it. A drive is on for in
creased membership all over the
country and Vermont should make
an effort to hold her proud position
as the banner state by going ahead
still another peg.
The local post appeals to all SER
vice men to get into line and fill up
the ranks. We trust that the appeal
will be needed and that by July 1,
the roll of Middlebury post will con-
tain list of new names that will sur
prise the most optomistic. If you
have not joined the Legion, or the
Auxiliary, and you are eligible, do so
today.
