The st. Johnsbury Californian is
added this week to the state newspapers
that support RedfeTd Proctor for the Re
publican nomination for governor at the
primaries Sept. u. An editorial making
announcement of its stand concludes
with the following paragraph, which has
the endorsement of The Reformer:
Red6eld Proctor is Vermont product
as solid, substantial and clean as the
marble in the hills where he was born.
He has been weighed in his public serv-
ice and not found wanting. He is thor
oughly familiar with the needs of the
state and its tax-burdened people. His
platform is constructive, progressive
and practical He stands for the ideals
that have made this little state a great
state in manv ways-known from the
Atlantic to the Pacific as a common
wealth of law-abiding, Industrious and
contented people. His nomination for
governor on Sept. II, and his election on
Nov would restore confidence in state
craft, stabilize our industrial conditions
and keep Vermont in the front rank of
the progressive commemorative of our
nation.

THE COLLEGIATE DILEMMA.

1t is announced that Northwestern
university will not employ married in
structQrs unless they have other means
of support than the university salary.
The situation prompting the announce
ment confronts most American collegiate
institutions, and it is not a good indica-
ton
It is explained that Northwestern pays
as high salaries as other universities.
but that living expenses in Evanston are
so high that professor cannot hope to
run home and keep up the proper
standard of appearances on his yearly
pay.
There is something all wrong about it,
not only at Northwestern but wherever
such a condition exists. All question of
salary aside it is setting up democracy
of clothes and housing and food over a
democracy of intelligence.
1t is partly question of wages. Teach
ing salaries still are far too low on the
average. But that is not all of the
trouble. In American educational life as
in other realms we are losing our sense
brought up, but no less does the mounting
valuation of purely material possessions
need to be brought down.
The man best qualified to teach, not
the man with the best bank account,
should be chosen as the teacher. Unless
we can strike a better balance between
respect for the material and respect for
the intellectual we shall neither be able

Science Discovers That VitaminGS

FRUIT JUICES 4 SOURCE OF VITANINES
'FRUIT-A-TIVES" the wonderful
Fruit Medicine is Rich in Health Giving
Xitan1ines

Thousands of men and women are
falling off in health and vigor because
the food they eat is lacking in one
element, without which they cannot
keep fit. This element is Vitamine.
Ordinary meatsand fish donot contain
it. Milk is not rich in it. Manufac-
tured foods have the Vitamines
destroyed in the process of manufac
ture. Some fruit juices are rich in
Vitamines. A careful examination of
experiments conducted by both
British and American authorities
shows that Oranges contain an album
dance of both "B" and &C" Vita
mines and Apples contain a relatively
largeamountofthese vital substances.
Why is it that Fruit-a-tives "gives
such marvellousresultsin overcoming
Constipation, Impure Blood, Starved
Nerves and a rundown system?
Because "Fruit-a-tives" is a true
fruit mcdicine-the only medicine in
the world made from intensified fruit
juices. "Fruit-a-tives is rich in the
"B" and &C" Vitamines, derived
from the juices of oranges and apples.
To take Fruit-a-tives regularly,
is to supply the system with the Vita
mines which are needed andwhich are
absolutely necessary to health.
