There was a decrease Of $4,000 in
the amount on deposits in the two
savings banks in Rutland in the six
months between June 80 and Deem
Der 81, 1921. This is due, bankers
say, to the fact that many people
have had to draw heavily on their
"rainy-day fund" because of so much
unemployment. No such drain on
savings deposits has existed for
generation except when the sale of
Liberty bonds was in progress during
the war. The total amount on de-
post in the two Rutland savings
banks at present is $11,264, 1O1.

Dear Opinionites:

Dear Opinionites:
Until the first of January, the
natives here are quite sure that the
coming season is going to be a
little light, in spite of the fact that
the early tourists come in in increas-
ing numbers earlier than usual. 1t
is sort of human nature to think that
one good season cannot be followed
by another Then the Holidays are
over, ice and snow come in the
north and crowded trains begin COM
to the city in three sections and
hundreds of tourists arrive in each
section. Hotels fill up apartments
are in demand and rooms to rent
signs begin to come down. Exactly
that thing has been happening all
the week and the regulars are feel
ing mighty cheerful.
Mr. and Mrs Henry G Farrar of
Rutland arrived ON Tuesday for the
winter and now our family seems
complete. They report that it was
twelve below zero in Rutland the
night they left Vermont. We can
easily believe that for we have been
having a cool spell since the North
has been on rampage. We always
know because we get a drop in
temperature when things are happen
ing up North.
Tuesday morning, we attended the
second meeting of the New England
Society of Miami, which is to in
clude New Englanders over Dade
County. Bradford was we'll repre-

Cabinet office seems to be a
good stepping stone for the bust
ness world. Here is Mr. Secy.
Hays offered a position in the
Movie World and now Mr. Secy.
Hoover has position offered him
as director-general of the Sesqui-
Centennial exposition to be held
sometime along at Philadelphia.
Political prominence doesn't
mean that a man is a business
giant or captain of industry but
in these two cases both men can
qualify as to their business and
executive ability.
The sympathy of the country
has been with France much Of
the time during and since the
war, but she doesn't want to
trig the wheels of the Conference
too much if she expects to re-
tain that sympathy. We surely
want France to be protected and
with Germany for a close neigh
Dor it is necessary. However
there are limits to her needs and
she must recognize the fact that
she must not endanger a reason
able effort to disarm the world.
The question, What is Wealth :?
has often been asked and as often
been answered. Nearly every
one has agreed that it is not
wholly material. Oil has made
James Poteet, a Kentucky moun-
tainer, immensely wealthy in
this worlds goods, but he nor
his family know nothing of the
way to use it so they live in a
shanty and he works at dollar
a day as farm hand and his
wife and family live the normal
life of the mountainer. He has
money but not wealth.
We are getting crumbs of COM
fort these days from many
sources and 1922 is starting off
with several grains of confidence
that business is going to be
better. The Industrial Index
says: American leaders of fl
nance and industry are encourag-
ing in their representations as
to 1928. They don't predict
rampant prosperity, but they do
predict steadily improving con-
ditions."
Up in the dairy states, like the
New England States, condensed
milk doesn't cut much of a figure
so we never think of it. But
where milk is scarce, condensed
or evaporated milk is about the
only COW the cook knows about.
1t is said that the cans used
every year would go five times
around the earth. Allow about
six inches to can and figure
out the number of cans, some
one of these cold evenings, if you
lack for something to do.
