casion for the suggestion came to his
mind from an occurrence which hap
pened in town where he had been
visiting, neighbor of his host there

the suggestion took on added force
from the writer's own experience that

old youngster disporting in the high
way and with not person within two
hundred feet or within sight Of the
boy. The mother or the attendant had
become busy about something else and
the little fellow had Jared forth for
himself in the most trusting spirit,
knowing nothing of the danger and
bent merely on exploring the great UNI

As is well known, children are the
most endangered by motor vehicles
because they are more needless and
because they persist in making the
streets and the highways their play
grounds. In the two instances men
toned above there was plenty Of
ground, safely away from the high
way, where the children could have
played had they been so directed by
their elders. II was not because the
areas were congested and Fairgrounds
were scarce but simply because OF the
perversity Of youth or the needless
ness of infancy that they wanted to
play where the danger was the great
est. There is not much chance for

TT there is any Office in the gift of
the people that should be filed with
ability and knowledge of human ma
ture and law it is the probate court.
This Office should not be considered
as a pickup by any office seeker who
may happen at the time to be out of
job, either IL should be filed with
the best that can be found. II is
stated that every estate averages to
go from 10 to 10 years. Hence it can
be seen that it means much to those
having business with il.
In the present instance the retire
ment of Judge Frank J. Martin makes
it necessary to flll his place, and il
viii need brains, knowledge of law
and good common sense 10 do it.
There are three candidates. +. r.
Davis of Barre, James b. Estee of
Montpelier and Judge Dale of Water
bury. We have seen the Estee petit
tion signed by a great many in this
town, Montpelier and in certain parts
Of the county. He has many sigma
lures. We have not happened to have
run into any of Judge Dale's. Mr..
Davis has done little of this kind OF
work He has enough to answer legal
requirements. and is not Fostering ev-
erybody to sign his petitions. This is
10 his credit. If there Is anything
that is annoying 70 the average voter
IL is to have every candidate up for
Office chasing around to get every man
and woman in the town 10 sign up.
We have briefly discussed the vari-
Gus candidates, and taken all around
we are firmly of the opinion that Earle
r. Davis of Barre is the man best
qualified for this most important job.
Mr.. Davis is poor campaigner. This
Il all the more reason why we are
trying to place him right before our
readers. II may not be known TO
many, but he has made a study Of
probate law. Therefore, he Is well
qualified to administer this Office. Be
sides this, he is lawyer with large
practice.
We doubt very much il he is TO
make an active campaign for the place.
We are simply telling our readers who
he il and that If elected to the place
county patrons Of the pro-
bate court will never regret putting
him there.
just remember, this place should be
something more than a hitching post

Leonard and Lew Tender in their r.
round, no-decision encounter at point

~ than they were for distinction as
athletes. But when Leonard and Tend
Ter brought their gloved fists together,

time, with all the skill of the game
brought into play and with all the
physical stamina stored up by long
training utilized to sustain the con-
tenders. Approximately 10000 people
saw the bout, and for once they went
home satisfied that both the contend
ers had given the best there was in
them, that there was no "stalling,"

CURRENT COMMENT
Agan a convert7

There has been some vociferous urg-
ing of Frank w. Agan of Ludlow as a
candidate for governor this year and
this urging seems the most pronounced
in centers where the prohibitory laws
are least popular. In and around Lud-
low there is report in circulation
that Mr.. Agan after watching the re-
suits Of national prohibition for three
years has become supporter of the
18th amendment. ii this rumor is
true, we wonder if he would have
the support for governor of some Of
those who have been noisiest in urging
him to be candidate Bennington

BRICK AND SAND
AND SAND FILLED
(Orlando Sentinel)

(Orland0 Sentlnel)
Editor Sentinel: We have been
asked which type of brick road we
|consider advisable for Orange county
tc build. Our answer is emphatically
"a brick laid on sand and sand filed"
Naturally, you must think we have
fairly good reasons for this opinion,
and we have, and here they are:
In the first place Orange county has
soil in the main admirably suited
to sand laid brick road; this state
ment has been made by prominent
engineers in Orange county, so We
are not alone in this opinion. In the
second place, it is a well known and
admitted fact, by competent engi-
neers, that where it is possible to
conine sand, there is no material
which makes a firmer foundation.
Ocean beaches, for instance.
The Angebilt hotel the Yowell-
Drew building, the Dickson-Ives build
ing-in fact, all the large buildings in
Orlando-are built upon sand founda-
tions; concrete on sand, of course.
In the third place, where sand
sub-grade for a road is properly
curbed, properly water-bound, prop
erly rolled and surfaced with brick
and then sand filled, except where
weak spots occur in the sub-grade, and
these weak spots will show up in any
kind of road, you will have road
which for ten years win require less
cost in maintenance than any other
type of road you can build. One Ford
truck and two men and a few shovels
will be able to keep up the road to the
east coast for the next eight or ten
years and at cost not to exceed S125
per mile per year; this would mean
an annual outlay for maintenance or
the twenty-six miles to the east coast
OF s325O per year, or $4,000 for ter
years; while for a penetration road
if it is re-treated when it should be
you will have to administer this re-
treatment approximately once a year
