While people try to persuade the
women folks that housewori is
honorable and praiseworthy wash
ing dishes is not yet considered one
of the popular amusements of our
town.
The women are crowding the
men out of the business offices,
but perhaps the men can get jobs
as housecleaners.
Some people seem to think that
the way to get more of the neceS-
saries of life is to stop the product

Claimed that people should be
able to live until they are 125, but
a good many fairly young folks
act that much old already.

By agreeing to investigate the

succeeds in pleasing both those
who want action and those who
don't.
What our public men need is
more nerve and less sWerve.
The stock market is reported in

a rather radical statemen to some
people to venture the opinion that
the men who went to the Colors
during the World War will be the
Salvation of Vermont. The latest
government figures for the first
three months of 1922eshow that the
death rate has been proportionate-
" higher in the countr-- than has
the birth rate. In other words,
Judging from the first quarter Of
the present year, we are losing IN
population.
Vermont, in common with other
parts of the country, is losing
ground, numerically. In fact, au-
thorities have pointed out that
there has been a sharp decline in
the population of the Green Noun
tain State. The trend of a great
number of Vermonters is towards
any place else save Vermont. Now
the members of the American
Legion are persons who have gone
outside the borders of the Green
Mountain State to do their duty to
their country, from a thousand
and one occupations, and have re-
turned again to this common
wealth.
During their soiourn beyond the
confines of this, their native state,
the ex-service women and men
saw how people in other states did
things and compared them with
the comparatively backward way
we are doing things in this state.
Their education has been improved
immeasureably more than mere
erudition could enhance it, for
true education has been defined as
"the clash of mind with mind" 1t
is because these women and men
who served under Uncle Sam dur
ing the World War, who are band
ed together under their own ban
ner of the American Legion, have
been "out in the world so to
speak, and have seen how "the
other fellow" is doing things,
1t is for this reason, and not in
any boastful vein that we venture
the opinion that the Veterans of
the World War will be the saliva
ton of Vermont. Thev are the

Winter Sports for Vermont

The suggestion is made by the
Rutland Herald that steps be tax
en- at once in Vermont cities and
towns to form a "grand circuit" of
carnivals to be held during the next
winter, the grand circuit being
dependent of course, upon the for
nation of local clubs in a large
number of communities of the
state. More was made of winter
sports last winter then ever before
in Vermont and the results were
rather satisfactory on the whole.
Better health was developed in
thousands of people; the expense
was not excessive; the drawbacks
to the scheme were rather small
in comparison with the advantages.
Besides that, a large number of
people were attracted TO Vermont
from the larger cities of the east
crn country, with attendant in
crease in the circulation of money
in the state.
If as much is to be done in Yer
mont the coming winter the plans
ought to be laid now rather tnan TO
wait until the winter is already
upon us; and we second the sug-
gestion of the Rutland Contempor-
airy that some sort of a state or
gonization of local winter sports
clubs be formed in order that a
concerted effort may be made to
make the winter sports worth
while. 1t viii be easily possible to
enlarge the winter sports program
without great outlay of money.
Moreover, a campaign of publicity
ought to be launched at once if we
are to attract more people to Yer
mont in the winter as we hone to
do. Therefore, the proposal to form
some central, or state organization
with view to mapping out a
grand circuit, as the contempor-
airy suggests, ought to be followed
by the winter sports promoters in
various communities of the state

Views of Autumn


1.-THE pessimist says that autumn
il a time of melancholy. He finds
that leaves begin to turn yellow
and eventually to fall, that veg
cation decays and a general mel
ahcholy feeling prevails that the
end of al things has come. he sits
abound with the blues and remarks
that such is life.
tThe optimist rcjoices at the crisp
air of the autumn, which puts new
CLERGY into his blood and muscles:
He feels that he can get out ana
do things which were impossible
dhring the heats of summer. He
reioices in the end Of the growing
SEASON, as the time when mans la
Dor comes to its fruition. He
looks at it as the season of salts
faction, when nature reaches her
best and the world is glad for sue
cessful completion of another sea-
SONS toll.
The people with melancholy ma
tares find gloomy thoughts at all
seasons, while those with hopeful
t$mperaments find sunshine and
gbod cheer in all.
Fortunately the newly proposed
tariff on salt will not 90 into eff
feet until after the politicians will
have a chance TO use a pinch of
it on the voters.
An exchange suggests that it
has got so inthese troublesome
times that it takes two licenses to
get married, a marriage license
ahd an automobile license.
