"Well, long time ago, there was

VISION

r Asst night crept across the snow
- Where only tracking rabbits go,
And there l waited quite alone
Until the Christmas radiance shone.
At midnight twenty angels came,
Each white and shining like flame,
At midnight twenty angels sang,
The stars swung out like bells, and rang.
They lifted me across the hill,
They bore me in their arms until
A greater glory greeted them,
1t was the town of Bethlehem.
And gently, then, they set me down,
All worshipng that holy town,
And gently, then, they babe me raise
NV head to worship and to praise.
And gently, then, the Christ smiled down
All there was glor. in that town!
II was as if the world were free
And glstening in purity.
There, in that vault of crystal blue,
II was as if the world were new,
And myriad angels, file on file,
C,loried in the Christ-child's smile.
It was so beautiful to see,
Such glory for child like me.
So beautiful, it does not seem
It could have been a Christmas dream!

number of trees each year for the

CURRENT COMMENT
Vermont Being Advertised.

Vermont is setting out to remove
the impression from the public mind
that 1t is d snow bound state. 1t is
advertising itself az garden-spot, a
place Of lovely valleys and fertile soil,
to which there should come the peo-
pie who have found agriculture UNI
profitable ON WORKOUT or too expen-
sive farms of some OF the other states.
It is telling the world that Vermont Is
full Of opportunity and that 1t well
comes new corners.
Vermont has the right idea. 1t has
too long been shrinking violet, 1t
has permitted the idea to prevail that
it is an icy fastness a good part Of
the year.
Now, it is going to prove its right
to be known os one of the most open
and attractive parts for the country.
sWhy,p It says, ''only this year some
of our Vermont towns had to ship In
Ice from Canada because ii was not
cold enough last winter to give us
q supply
Out here in Kewanee we have had
the correct view OF Vermont for it Ia
the old home state of w III. Lyman
and Others of our citizens who have
long spread the truth about it attrae-
tons And every summer Frank FL.
Craig on his vacations finds some
thing new about its resources to tell
Star Courier readers But the coun-
try at large has not been 50 fortunate
in getting the facts. Somehow, most
people, the Vermonters say, have
nourished the notion that the state
is an impenetrable domain, and they
are going to do something about it,
Go to 1t, Vermont. We like your
spirit. So far az we are concerned
you can prove anything you like, up TO
the point, of course that Vermont is a
better state than Illinois. !

BIG LOAN SOUGHT
TO BUILD Tunnel
RECEIVER DESIRES TO COMPLETE
RAILWAY LINE INTO UiNTA
BASIN, UTAH; ASKS LOAN
Fifty Billion Tons Of Bituminous Coal
Will Be Brought Forth BY
Completion of Proposed
Road Building

Washington,-The Denver & Sal
Lake Railroad company applied Mon.
day to the interstate commerce com.
mission for a government loan of SO,
100000 with which to construct tun
mel six miles long on a portion of the
road about ITO miles west of Denver.
The receivers of the Denver < Salt
Lake railroad, in arguing for grant OF
the loan, declared the proposed tun.
mel would eliminate grave and serious
difficulties" which they now have to
face in operating the railroad, which
climbs to IL 900 feet above sea level.
The tunnel would allow them to re-
duce the highest elevation on the rail-
road to 9190 feet, and would eliminate
twenty-seven miles of per cent grade
over which their locomotives now have
to climb in winter with rotary snow
plows in front every day to maintain
operations.
If the money is granted, the re-
ceivers added. the line can be compile
ted to its projected terminus at Salt
Lake City, and coal field estimated to
contain 10000, 100000 tons of bitumin-
Gus coal can be adequately served.
The receivers estimated that the low
err operating charges and the increased
attained by long tunnel at
the summit would result Immediately
in an Increase of 200 per cent in the
traffic. Also very large area Of Cello
RADIO now without railroad service, and
much of II government hand, the nppli-
cation said, would be made available
for settlement.
