he explained his errand Well! so he was
from Brinville! Yes she had a room he could
have-would he like to look at it? Lysander
guessed he'd take it without inspection. and
could he put his car in the garage:
''Fraid it isn't much Of a garage" she
was beginning when she caught sight Of
Henrietta
grinned. But-well. I'll Just put her in
and get my grip"
Henrietta had given up again, but the
driveway sloped a little and Lysander rolled
her easily into the shed, then, wicker suitcase
in hand, he hesitated in the hall. From what
he judged to be kitchenwards a fresh young
voice was caroling: Love me-and the

Amy acknowledged the introduction; said

The room proved to be small, but there
were two Windows from each Of which, as
Miss Stills adjusted the blind, Lysander
glanced. From one glimpse of far brown
hills across red and green roofs; from the
other yellow street car changing past a
corner where no less than three little box
buildings displayed great signs announcing
they were offices.
Everybody here In real estate?" he
laughed. ." Must have passed about a hun.
dred Of those places on my way out here"
We'll, the citys growing so fast you
know, return ed Miss Amy, land that makes
big demand for all kinds Of real estate.

Lysander thanked her-and for full five
minutes remained at the window
Perhaps it was destiny. Surely this had
been a fateful day, for in it he had met her,
and it was not impossible had been given
this tip by fortune herself 49, N
His fellow boarders were Miss Burd, a
school teacher, and a facetious plumber
named Tillbury. Lysander was preoccupied
with his two problems-how to meet Phyllis
and how to make a fortune this week or
next. He cursed his silly lack of purpose
and ambition, hitherto.

to talk rents and real estate, unaware that

the start. At the sound of a new
voice several heads came into
view through the open upper half
of the entrances to box stalls, for
you know a horse has as big a
bump of curiosity as any folks
that even lived.
At the head Of the list is Pony
Express a bay stallion by Allan
tic Express. A better hammered
horse in stable or on track would
be hardly possible to find. AS a
circuit horse he ships well and is
thoroughly game. With a three
year-old record of PIP, trotting
last year as a PAGER he won a mark
of 2.13A which will be probably
lowered considerably this eason
Pay Roll, a 7-year old bay mare,
with a mark of 2.15A at the trot
is also looking good and training
in a satisfactory manner.
Licona Todd by Echo Todd,
2.14A, dam by Bingen is a bay
4 year old flly that has never
been raced, but has the requisite
breeding to make her a good per
former.
z. C. B., a bay PAGER, with a
record of 2.14A, is a why little
horse well known in these parts.
A new one to this north country
is Donna Belle w, a chestnut
mare with a trotting record of
2.29A, as a 2 year old. She is
the property of DR.. F. B. Easton
of Craftsbury.
Dorothy Wilson, the pacing
mare, owned by Carl A. Hopkins,
of St. J%ohnsbury, has a record by
2.21A and is making steady i'm
provement under patient training
and recently went a half in 1.05.
Bingen W., a 6 year old bay
PAGER, with d mark of 2.19A is
rapidly overcoming a tendency
early in the season to break and
is racing some good miles against

ception of eVrmont has %appropri-
ated a sum of money to cover the
actual expense of such ~investiga-

VermonterS WAC are interested
in industry, should make a study
of the possibilities of consolidation
of the roads and what it will mean
to Vermont. Realizing the situa-
ton Governor Hardness some time
since designated the Vermont
Commission on Foreign and Do
nestle Commerce to act for Yer
mont in the matters, but the COM
mission is without funds to handle
the work so that it must ask, the
manufacturers and others in YER
mont who are interested il. the
States welfare through the public
press to forward all of the data
they can collect upon the matter.
Vermont when it goes into the
hearing in August must, in spite of
the fact that the Board of Con-
troll recently turned down an eX-
penditure of $500 which Governor
Hardness approved, make u show
ing and present its evidence in
some decent form or Vermont will
shortly realize that it has suffered
from lack of attention to the mat
ter. The commission feels that
hearings should be held in Yer
mont for the purpose of getting
the sentiment of Vermonters on
this subject. They are perfectly
willing to give their time, but feel
that they should not bear the ac-
tual expenses incurred by holding
such hearings.
The Transportation Act of 1920
provides that the Interstate Com
merce Commission is required as
soon as practicable to prepare and
adopt a plan for the consolidation
of the railroad properties int a linn
tied number of systems. The Com
mission has formed that plan and
provides for a New England con-

which is the financiers' plan, but
gives control outside New Eng
land; The Croker plan similar to
the Oldham plan but financed
within New England; The Lane
plan, which is for the benefit of
Maine, and building up Portland
as a port, as we'll as Boston. The
New Hampshire plan resemble
the Maine plan, but leaves the
Central Vermont as a truni; line
1t is the understanding tnat the
railroads do not have TO consolidate
under the Commerce Commissions
plan but that they may consolidate
in accordance with the views OF
their own plan. This presents
therefore an important situation
for there are several conditions
that must be met, with arguments,
if Vermont hopes to be able to
maintain as good railroad service
as it has eniyed in the past, and
the business interests of Vermont
must be protected in some manner

ST. MARKS.

This week brings the passing of the old to the new in the affairs of St Marks parish Last Sunday the final services were held in the old church next Sunday a portion of the new edi fee will be used.
 But in this passing from the old to
 the new only the outward and visible
 signs" are altered. The inward and
 spiritual grace" remains. Were this
 not the case the sadness upon leaving
 the church which has become dear to many through the years would make tragedy, not joy, the moving into the beautiful edifce which will be the rarish's new home.
 We speak a language today which differs from that of our fathers and our mothers. Nor may it be said with certainty Of truth that our language IS less worthy than was theirs They would have been shocked perhaps, by
 "i fi'V"oii ol expression. Manner Of dress and habit would have brought consternation to them. Nor may it be said that they were right and we are wrong, This ''Nisible," tangible have changed. Has the inward and spirit Lal grace" remained?
 There was low note of sadness felt by those who attended the serv- ices at the old church last Sunday. There was bright note of optimism and hope heard after the quiet mo- ments passed. Those leaving the old place of worship saw the fine new building standing in the West, waiting. hey were glad There was no feel Ing Of dlsloyalty to the old; there was but the hope that there would be borne from that sacred place of the past the same spirit of service. strengthened by new life, which has in splred fine action through the wears Changing times bring many changes Tn He. but there is a spirit that no change may weaken or alter Thai spirit, more than the spendor of tbe structure, carried from the old churcb f Will beautify the new.

POOR ARGUMENTS.

One of the arguments advanced
 against the establishment of dental
 clinic in this city. was the expressed
 belief that it would be impossible to get a capable dentist to do the work at the salary that could be offered. The need of the clinic was freely ad- mtted, even by the committee which reported against authorization of funds for it--by the committee the report of which was not adopted by the common council. The force of the argument that it was well to add this work 10 the fine fresh air camp benefits, was seen.
 Now comes the news that shows ting capable dentist to do this work. There are four applicants, two of Iege courses yet but who will be judged by the state authorities un- doubtedly fitted to practice their pro- fession shortly
 Thus it may be seen that at least one argument against the practicabil- ity of establishing the clinic was a poor argument Other objections faded away before the strength of the of the case by those who not only saw it's necessity, but who believed that no technicalities as to procedure should interfere with car rying the plan to completion imme- diately.
 Objections to a worthy cause are weak indeed when such arguments ire relied upon to defeat it.
