The New School Year


The real New Year for multi
tudes of children and young peo-
pie is not January I, but the day
when school or college begins
Then is the time for their new
resolves of effort.
One Of the big problems of sue
cessful school management, Is to
keep the classes working together
and prevent the slower pupils from
falling behind. Where some drag,
the work of the whole group must
suffer. The bright students be-
come tired of the slow progress,
and may put their surplus energy
into mischief. The capable teach
er devotes her earnest effort to
explain away the difficulties that
perplex the more sluggish minds.
Parents are keenly ambitious in
these times, and hate to see their
children fall back. Some who have
not fully kept up, attend study
camps in summer, while others are
given make up tasks at home UNI
der tutor or parental instruction.
Many children who have required
this special attention, have so pro
flied by the effort that thereafter
they should keep up.
Yet complaints are often heard
that the schools drive their young
people too hard. A nervous child
who is doing the best he can but
is worrying about his work, is evil
IDENTIFY getting wrong treatment.
1t will do some of these no harm
to drop back year, and they
should not feel any disgrace in it.
Other children would be able to
do their work all right if they
would play games and exercise in
the open air all they can, instead
of spending spare hours in aimless
loafing. A child with a good
vigorous body can usually do the
work of the ordinary school course.
The Cadelonian-R Record offers its
best wishes for the new year of
school, and hopes that the teach
ers will receive hearty home sup
port and that the pupils will find
the satisfaction that comes from
well learned lessons.

Backing Gov. Hartness

The small number of women
who are allowing their names to
be used as candidates for major
offices and for the State Legisla-
lures in New England, seems to be
rather surprising to some who
had direfully predicted a reign of
petticoat government as a result
of woman suffrage. 1t seems that
the outlay Of money usually eX-
pended by candidates for office is
given by women as one reason
for their reluctance to enter the
political field. Women are feel
ing their way gradually in the
political arena and seem to be
willing to content themselves
largely with minor offices.-Hard-
wick Gazette.

BAD DAY FOR NEWSPAPER
MEN

1t was rather of a cold day for
newspaper men candidates in the
primary of Tuesday in Vermont.
We hesitate to count up the cas-
ualties among the profession but
there was such marked tendency
on the part of the voters to rele-
gate publishers and editors to the
sanctum that we mention the
fact that Wallace H. Gilpin of the
Orleans county newspaper syndl-
cate was defeated by a narrow
margin for one Of the Orleans
county senatorial positions; that
Publisher J. E. Appolt of the
Hardwick Gazette failed to get
the required number of votes for
endorsement as a formal candidate
for the House Of Representatives
from Hardwick; that w. c. Bel
knap of the Bellows Falls Times
was third man in a similar contest
in the town of Rockingham; that
Publisher Wilson of the Bristol
Herald, although receiving a
handsome endorsement in his
home town, failed to land one of
the Addison county senatorial
nominations; that Mrs. ErVal
Whitney, widow of Fred N. Whit
ney of the Mortified News and
herself a newspaper worker for
time, was defeated in the contest
in Mortified for the representa-
tive nomination.
There may be others of the pen
and the paste profession who
failed to find the key of official
prefelment; but the above are all
who have come to our notice.
Taken all in all, the demonstration
of voters predictions against
the newspaper craft when it comes
to office holding was quite pro
nounced. However, the defeated
aspirants need not worry for they
have plenty of chance to mix up
in public affairs in their own way
if they see fit to do so,-Balre

BERLIN ZOO MUST
CLOSE ITS DOORS

BERLIN, Sept. 16-Facing
bankruptcy, the management of
the Berlin Geological Gardens has
decided to close the gates Of the
place to the public from Oct. 1 to
March Is next year. 1t is esti-
mated that at least 100000
marks would be required to tide
over the winter if the zoo were
kept open. Zoos in other parts
OF Germany already have been
forced to take similar steps due
to economic difficulties.
Some fears are entertained for
the possible injurious consequence
es of the winters economy ar
engagements, since the herding of
various types of animals together
will be necessitated.

ECHOES OF THE PRIMARIES
PUTTING OVER LOCKE

The st. Johnsburv Caledonian,
which also circulates in Orleans
county, has come out with strong
endorsement of O. W. Locke of
Westmore as a candidate for
county senator. Inasmuch as Wal
lace H. Gilpin, who owns all the
newspapers in Orleans county, is
also a candidate, the situation
points to slow down between the
dailys and the weeklies. If The
Caledonian can "put Locke over"
with all the county newspapers
supporting Gilpin, it will be some
political accomplishment. - Rut-

Gov. Hartness, meeting opposi-

gambling at the agricultural fairs
in Vermont, declared the people
Of the State were not backing
him up on his plan. The next
day the convention of the Univer-
salists of Vermont and the Pro-
vince Of Quebec adopted resolu-
tons condemning gambling at
State, county and town fairs and
calling for enforcement Of the
law. That was one rather prompt

Exhibit at the County Fairs

Every agricultural district needs

least expensive way of making the

from considerable distances to see

Erecting Road Signs

With the hope of controlling
hair Drained automobile speeders
public authorities and automobile
agencies are placing many warning
signs along the highways. While
some daredevils can not be infiu-
enced by this or any other from
of regulation other than some
drastic penalty, yet these notices
will affect the driving of most
people and must reduce accidents.
The man who habituallv pays no
attention to such signs has no
business to operate car on the
highway. If public sentiment
were sufficiently active he would
be hauled before the authorities
and lose his right to run a ma
chine.
Warning signs of coure should
be erected with judgement. If a
place is marked Dangerous" that
can not fairly be called so, the
effect is harmful, as speeder would
get the notion that the notices
could safely be ignored. As a
whole the signs alone the high
ways of Northeastern Vermont
are we'll placed and their counsel
should be carefully followed.

Is the Coal Strike Settled?

The public is pleased to have the
long drawn out coal strike settled.
Yet the so called settlement is
really nothing of the kind, merely
truce in the industrial battle,
when both sides quit for little
to bury the dead and get their
breath.
The same old issues have got to
come up again next summer and
they must be really settled then,
unless the country is to suffer very
severely.
The time has come when the
United States government can no
longer avoid action 1t is the ten
dency of politicians of all parties,
to hesitate to align themselves on
holly disputed questions. They
fear to take sides against any pop
ular feeling or strongly organized
element. Their tendency is to
drift along hoping that difficulties
will remove themselves. Ere
qeuntly they are in honest doubt
created by the magnitude of new
problem and do not know which
way they ought to turn.
The problems do not solve them
selves, and men of force and Wis
ion and intelligence must do the
best they can. Doing nothing may
be worse than making a mistake.
When some kind of action is TAX
en-, it at least will demonstrate
whether the theory on which it
was based was correct or not.
The government should not
again permit a great necessary of
life like coal to be tied up in this
way. 1t must tell the contendinG
parties that they must consent to
some form of Cancellation or arbi-
tration. or that sever penalties
will otherwise be imposed. And it
must protect the public from un-
fair prices whether caused by the
profits of operators or the wages
of employees. The public after
this warning, will not tolerate an
other experience such as this. The
political party that fans to take
active measures to prevent a re-
currence of this strike and others

PEASANTS DEVISE
TRAP FOR LOCUSTS

KAZAN, Sept. 16-Thousands
of miles Of bitches bordering
fields of grain have been dug by
the peasants along the Volga to
protect their crops from an inva-
sion of locusts. Partly by this
means, and with the assistance of
the government which used pois-
oned gas, the grain was saved.
The bitches acted as a trap.
The locusts crawled into them,
whereupon the peasants gathered
III crowds, men, women and chill
dren, and shoveled earth on top
OF the insects. The method was
very effective.
