pend entirely on the U. S. Fuel
Distributor. We cannot procure
coal. We can only distribute it.
again l say I do not want to
brighten the public, but it is my
duty as Fuel Distributor of the
State of Vermont to warn you
when | see danger ahead. Please
consider that in Norman times it re-
quires II months mining to supply
the country with the necessary
amount anthracite coal and that
the mines have been closed for
five months. We may be able to
secure soft coal as a substitute but
if everyone clamors for it, the sup
ply will not be sufficient. Vermont
has nearly three months before
cold weather and our only saliva
ton is wood. My advice is that the
coal users hold meetings at once
and arrange for the cutting of wood
on a large scale to save Vermont
from suffering the coming winter
l might say further that it would
be only natural for this office next
February to remind you of this
this August 2Sth interview.

The Greatness That Endures

No amount Of denial or doubt or detrac-
ton, no testing passage Of years, dim
his original greatness in the slightest.
Steadily, the evidence Of his genius
grows, and the renown Of his name
grows with it.
The whole eager sentiment and sup
port Of the world unite triumphantIy
behind him.
The world lauds his leadership, but
more than his leadership it admires the
dependabilty of his powers, the assur-
ance that it can definitely count upon
them as a standard for the world to
follow.
Applauding the leader, the world APP
pIauds itself-the undying fire in itself
WHICH lights the age-old quest for en-
during greatness.
Great names of all time, in every
sphere of human effort, all know the
reward Of eminencc and all bear wit
ness to the eternal truth. --..
The genuine leader cannot die. His fame
is immovabIe and immortal as the rocks.
He lives steadily on, he survives because
the power Of his work is permanent
True greatness inevitably endnres.
Enduring achievement alone is great.

closed Friday evening, in the rain,
with big audience in attendance.

RAPID WORK
BEING DONE
ON HOSPITAL
Roof of Orleans County
Memorial Building May
Be Put On This Week

The Orleans County Memorial
hospital is rapidly assuming shape,
the brick walls are now finished
and ready for the roof. H. O. Smith
the builder, stated on Saturday
that he had completed another inn
portant part in the construction OF
the building, and this week will see
the raising Of the steel timbers of
the roof.
The first floor is of fireproof
construction, built of steel, lumber
and tile, laid in concrete. The walls
will be covered VIII metal lath and
plaster.
The sewer is laid twelve feet un
foreground to get under the cellar
and runs to a catch basin 176 feet
distant to the street. The water
main runs in a ditch nine feet deep
a length of 226 feet. The main is
four inches in diameter and runs
into the building 33 feet. For fire
protection there will be two two
inch mains running up to the third
floor, and with two hose connect
ions on each floor.
Mr.. Smith also gave some inter
esting figures regarding the cen
struction. There are 500 cubic
yards of concrete in the foun lation
walls, about $500 bags of cement
lao truck loads of stone and about
$50 loads of gIavel. The walls
weigh approximately 10000 tons.
1900 cubic yards of earth were eX-
cavated for the foundation. The
huge chimney carries a flue - in
cheS square.
For heat, the Traine system of
vapor heating, which is the most
up-to-date heating plan for build
ings of this kind, is to be installed
The pillars for the two story front
porch which is Al by Is, are OF
reinforced concrete made with
white cement.
Besides all this much work has
been done towards the laYirg out
of the grounds and 1900 yards of
earth has been moved n the grad
ing. 1t is expected the rough work
of the grounds will all be complct-
Ell this fall, and be ready for seed
ing in the early spring.
A force Of thirty men are en-
ployed on the Job.

Ever since the world began, to one
austere quality men and nations have
ceaselessly aspired.
With eyes fixed beyond the foreground
OF temporary triumphs, men seek the
greatness that endures.
In statecraft, in art, in literature, in
science and in industry, the goal
is eternally the same.
Superficial briIiancy, the might of a
moment, is cheap and plentiful enough.
Profound achievement, the leader
ship that lasts, is lone and priceless as
the stars.
Every day Of every year builder rises
whose work bears the promise of
greatness.
But the brief success, the single and
sensational effort, never is sufficient
evidence Of genius.
Only by sustained achievement over a
period Of years is the title to greatness
established.
Once in generation, perhaps, the true
and unmistakable leader appears.
Boldly, his work forces itself in upon
the consciousness of the world as mas
terful, fundamental, unique.

His talk was devoted to a consid-
alton of American ideals in life,
society and government, and was
plea for more earnest public
spirit, cooperation, and more de-
votion to community betterment
In his opinion the question of the
hour will be decided in each COM
munity by the public spirit, good
sense, and united devotion Of that
community to the highest ideals.
Cooperation was the keynote of
his discourse, and in this opinion he
is seconded by many of the great
est and sanest minds of the day.
The Chautauqua program as a
whole was of high order of mir
it, and some of the eevnts have
never been exceeded her, The two
plays, modern and Shakespearean,
and several of the lectures and
concerts cannot be praised too
highly, and every one who attended
has felt perfectly satisfied with the
return for their money.
