The passing of such men as HON
err Thrasher of Newport, George
Myers of Westmore and Fred T. Por-
ter of West Burke, all during the
past week, reminds us of the swift
ly passing panorama of human events
Two of these men were naturally ex-
pected to "carry on" for several
years to come, but they have beer
suddenly taken away. Others grad
ualiy fill in the places they have left
except to the immediate home and
friends, and time moves along.

This paper is pleased to know that
the Vermont Bar association decided
not to disbar Horace F. Graham.
Horace Graham may have committed
a wrong. Few men there be who do
not. And few men receive as great
punishment for their wrongs as Mr..
Graham has received.

This paper would take great deal
more stock in the letters appearing
in the Burlington Clipper from time
to time, most of which advocate hard
surface road building and bonding for
the project, if they were signed COM
munications. Parties who send let
tiers for publication but who are un-
willing to have their name attached
to the sentiments expressed, seldom
need to be taken seriously.

The proposal of a 100000 hotel of
modern construction is being talked
for Stanstead. One man who does
not reside in Stanstead but who has
business interests there, offers to
subcribe $4,000 toward the project
if others will take hold and carry the
project to completion during 1922.
This is only another sign of return
ing confidence and improving condi-
tions in Canada, as well as in the
United States.

Trees for Korea.

RcforPStatiOn in Korea started with
handful of seeds planted by a Meth

20 years ago. says the American Fer

taken up by other missionaries. and In
few years the oppressive barrenness
of the Korean hills was broken here
and there by clumps of boxelder trees
about The American mission stations.

The good-sized cut in prices OF
many makes of automobiles on JAN
uary 1 indicates that the motor in
dustry is bound to get down to bed
rock in order that it's business may
move along with an even keel. Some
believe prices will go up again to
some extent before many months. Be
that as it may, one can buy today a
better car for less money than before
the war. Few articles of any kind
or character can be found in this
class.

Judge Wright started the new year

termination that greater justice
should be done the public in cases

therefore added 30-day Jail SEN

For tune the market was active and excited on re- buying by early sellers to cover shorts or replace long lines, and active months sold 63 to T6 points net higher, with January touching 26 56c and March 26 45c. The demand then tapered off again, and there were reactions in the later trading, but Liverpool was a considerable buyer. Last prices showed reactions of about T. to 25 points from the best.
