Replies to Employers.
(Rutland Herald.)

The Vermont National guard is en-
camped near Fort Ethan Allen for its
annual school of instruction, which is
the real purpose of every muster. As
usual, there are some employers of men
belonging to the state guard who resent
the soldiers leaving their jobs and re
spending to the patriotic call to attend
camp-and it is a patriotic call One
employer who could not look at the mat
ter in the right light wrote a letter to
Col e. w. Gibson, commanding the IT'D
infantry, demanding that certain
guardsman be released The officers re-
ply, which is in part as follows, should
change the view of every person who
thinks that he is being imposed upon
when man under paw leaves his estab-
lishment TO report for duty at muster:
The National guard is our chief re-
lance in the time of trouble. Its services
are invaluable, taking care of violence,
riots, and racial difficulties, in affording
protection to life and property. 1t is
n definite asset to the business of the
community by protection against arson,
vandalism, and destructive agencies, in
producing that feeling of security that in
sures the pursuits of employment. the
blessings of peace, and a proper respect
for the law. 1t enables a state to prove
to the world that it can preserve order
within its borders without recourse to
outside agencies. Therefore, the relations
between employer and the state in main
tanning the personnel of the National
guard should under all circumstances be
one of helpful cooperation.

Frame situated somewhere in ether

by the fact that in all probability
no ether exists and that the station
airy stars are no more stationary than
a Kansas cyclone. Besides, science
is still in trouble as a result of it's
assumption of the existence of an alb

And upon close investigation, the
scientific world has accented Elm

is no absolute Reference Frame.
The Motion of Light
This sort of experimenting proves
rather interesting. and you are glad
to continue it while on your train,
if for no other purpose but to "kill''
time. Remember, you are on the
train, the scientist is on the embank
ment. Now you have a third man
mount an aeroplane and start out in
the same direction as your train. You
have the plane speed no till it goes,
let us say, the trifiing distance of ten
thousand miles second. Each one
of you three is holding regulated
stopwatch. At one moment the aero
plane grazes your coach; and all three
watch the motion of the spark. At
the end of a second, each one finds
that the spark-light-has moved
10000 miles.
Now, this sounds absurd, and con-
tradicts common sense" For the
mani in the aeroplane should have
found the spark to have travelled
176, 1000 miles if the man on the train
found it 10000. Since by the end
of the second he himself had travelled
ten Thousand miles. The same rela-

Let Us Talk 1t Over

Well, dear sinner friends, this is

How does it set On your stomach?
If you like it you can get more at
headquarters.
The Fool-Killer is not even forty
'ieventh cousin to any other paper on
earth.

field is as broad as the English
language.

collar nor halter.

never travelled any to speak of,
but have read a great deal, and
have thunk some.
And then / started The Fool-Killer,
Just to quiet my nerves and to keep
the old press from getting rusty.
From the seclusion of these wooded
hills there will go forth each month
@ bundle of literary dynamite that
will shake the rotten foundations of
society and cause the church Of
Mammon to at least turn over in it's
sleep.
The Fool Killer is monthly mus
aard plaster for the blood-boils of
Society, Church and State.
1t is written with a red-hot poker
dipped in razor-soup.
It rides the devil a.straddle without
saddle, and spurs him at every lope.
1t is salted with wit, peppered with
tumOr, and seasoned with sarcasm.
Every line cuts like a whip, and
every word raises blister.
If you are fool you had better not
subseribe for The Fool-Killer. If you
are wise you will, and that settles it
