That information bureau in the Ho-
tel Woodstock in New York City,
which il proposed by the publicity bu-
reau OF the Hotel Association of Yer
mont, to be in operation during the
next three weeks, ought to prove val
liable in advancing the interests OF
Vermont through setting before the
clientele OF the Hotel Woodstock tie
advantages of Vermont as summer
vacation ground. A suggestion by the
director OF that publicity bureau, Mr.
Derrah, that people in Vermont nav
ing friends in New York City urge
those friends by letter to visit the in
formation bureau and get acquainted
with what Vermont offers along this
line deserves to be carried out. In
this way the people of Vermont can
cooperate with the Hotel Association
Of Vermont in increasing tn summer
business of the state. II is worth the
effort.

thereafter. Now that sounds pretty
good at first, but when you take into
consideration that Mr.. Taft has but
little money in the farm and that the
selectmen do not consider his sigma
ture very valuable it looks little diff
ferent. More than that, if this bridge
went out, it would be very likely to
take three Others along, which are To-
Gated not far below.
He says he offered TO repair the ap-
proaches a few years ago and If that
had been done the ahutment would
not have gone out. This statement
shows that he knows very little about
bridges, for if the approach to bridge

me.

That Taft Bridge in Royalton.

Editor, Times. If you win allow me
a little space in your valuable paper,
/ will try to explain why c. II. Taft
of Royalton has not been allowed to
attempt to build new abutment to
the bridge he refers to in your Mon
days paper.
In the first place, we do not consid-
err him competent to do the work so it
will stay. When he offers to do a job
for 5000. which state engineers say
will cost not less than $500, we nat
urally hesitate about parting with our
5000, knowing that the chances are we
would lose the bridge and also the
money.
He saws if IL goes out through faulty
construction he would not ask the
town to maintain bridge for him

PathUs and humor. plot and coun-
terplot, virtue and villainy, are all
exceliently compounded in the new
Goldwyn picture. "A Poor Relation, g"
starring VIII Rogers, at the Cres-
cent theatre today.
The story relates the trials of a
philosophic inventor, Noah Vale,
who cares more about the welfare
of two orphans he has adopted than
about the success of his invention.
As is often the case with impract.-
cal men, his invention is appropri-
ated by another, but the sparkling
wit that unconsciously drops from
his lips is gathered into book form
by a young friend and brings Noah
Vale fame and money when all his
plans seem to have failed. Besides,
he is the kindly instrument in bring
ing a delightful romance to fruition.

Rogers gives an inimitable per-
nee. He is an actor who never

le is cast in a role and in Z
ethat are as real as life. Long

Monday at Ditmas

Admittedly one of the outstanding
pictures of the season, The Golem,
a medieval romance developed with
remarkable skill which will be shown
at the Ditmas theatre next Monday.
has created a tremendous sensation
in New York where it held thousands
of persons entranced for weeks at
the Criterion theatre.
The ~photoplay is based in part
upon a novel by Gustav Meyrink, a
famous European novelist. The Co
lem is a curious figure from the de-
monology of Middle Europe which
still figures in the folklore of many
of the Balkan peoples. According
to the myth he is an inert figure OF
clay which can be brought to life at
certain propitious times by means
of a secret formula and lamentations.
The formula must be placed in his
breast under a star which holds II
in place.
The idea of a Golem is more
childish fancy because it ~visualizes
a problem which for ages has capti-
waited the imagination of mankind
In all times and places men have oc-
cupied themselves with the problem
of artificially creating a man whom
they could bring to life.
In the plot of 1.-THE Golem" the le-
gendary monster serves a double
He is the champion of the
oppressed, coming to their aid In
their hour of distress and symbol
izing both their helplessness and
their latent power. He is both the
hero and the villain of the story
since he both saves the Jews and
threatens them with destruction. He
is overcome as a symbol of brute
force by the power of innocence and
love, but even in his PROSTATE m
mensity he remains a warning
against unjust oppression since ne
is always the Golem who can be
brought to life again should the
need arise. Paul Wegener, one OF
the most distinguished actors in Eu.
rope plays the part of The Goiem.
If we We're not sure that you are
an admirer of Ethel Clayton, the
popular Paramount star, We never
theless would not hesitate to call to
your attention her latest starring We
hicle, "Exit-the Vamp," with the
prediction that it is one of her best.
II will also be shown at the Ditmas
theatre next Monday. ,
This is a delightful screen romance
one that we feel sure, VIII please
