lO4,l6O PEOPLE
SENSE THEIR
OBLIGATION
National Life Insurance
Company Issues
Interesting Report

One hundred and four thousand
and one hundred and sixty-people
who sense Their obligation to pro
vide for old age or their depend
ents. This describes in a few
words the National Life Insurance
Company, Montpelier, Vermont.
whose progress during the past
year adds another fifty million
dollars to the projection of Amer
lean homes,-some of it for the
protection of the wife, some for
the children, or for their educa-
ton, much of it to provide for an
income when the earning power
subsidies or when disability over
takes.
1t has taken seventy-two years
Of continuous progress to build
and develop this bulwark of Thrift
Mutual Protection and Independ-
ence, all belonging t. the policy
holders, whose combined savings
now amount to $78,292,849.69 Of
the highest grade trust fund in
vestments. This amount exceeds
all liabilities by S3.749,420.64 held
as a surplus or guaranty to cover
every contingency. Since the
organization of the COMPANY its
policyholders or their beneficiaries
have received 125,901,8 71.58,
which with the assets now to their
credit amounts to over sixteen mil
lion more tina nthey have paid in
premiums.
The year 1921 was 50 successful,
from the standpoint of mortality
and interest savings that there
will be returned to policyholders
during 1922 over three millions
of dollars in dividends as declared
oy the directors at the Octobe"
meeting.
Young people are inclined 10
feel that they Il secure the bene-
fit of insurance protection at any
time, but during the past year over
seventeen hundred applicants for
admittance to the company were
declined as uninsurable. The care
with which the company selects
its insurable risks and its invest
ments make the results shown in
the published report possible, and
evey Nermonter should be proud
of the accomplishment.

Another special meeting of the
st. Johnsbury Woman's club was
held Tuesday afternoon and des-
pite the below zero weather there

A paper on cart in the Home"
written by Mrs. Walter S. Little
Of Bridgewater, Mass, art chair
man of the general federation of
Women's clubs, was read by Mrs.
Braley. This dealt with interior
and exterior decorations and was
replete with valuable suggestions
for all types of rooms. Both the
house exterior and interior were
considered in all essential details,
including location, landscape gard
ening, material, style, color
scheme, etc. The paper dwelt also
on proportions, balance of open
ings, wall spaces for furniture,
woodwork, built-in furniture, cur
tains, their use, color and amount,
pictures, their selection and pro-
per hanging.
The most common sir in Am
erican furnishing, said the speaker,
is over furnishing and what is
needed in ability to select with
economic and artistic comprehen-
sion everything that goes ito the
home from the humblest article of
utility to. the fine arts.
Those present expressed a desire
for more meetings along art lines
and it was voted to ask Mrs. Al

FIRE STATION AND
MUNICIPAL BUILDING

Editor Caledonian-Record:
In late issues of your paper, one
marty fayors taking the Colonial
Theatre, another the Berry Ball
dept. store building, for this pur-
pose:
1t seems to me when full better
sites may be available, without
losing good buildings already oc-
cupied by progressive firms and
which could not be "iven up with
cut great inconvenience, we better
look farther for a solution of the
problem. Now | do not know as
it would be possible to buy the To-
cation that | would suggest, but
| would like to nave it tried in
any event. Take the property
now owned by the AthGnaeum, No.
"a Main street, just south of their
Library building. Every one will
admit that the location would be
ideal for the Fire Station, just at
the head of Eastern Ave, and also
for a municipal building as well.
1t is generally understood that
the Athenaeum are in need of
funds and possibly they would be
glad to dispose Of this location if
they could do so. The property
south of their building has a lot
fifty feet by approximately one
hundred and forty-hve feet deep
and probably land just west, now
owned by the Maple Grove Candy
Co., could be bought at a fair
price to move the present house
back on same, to be used as a res
idence for the Firemen OF rented
for dwelling nurposcs. If this
could be brought about, it would
save destroying present property
that we should be very 10th 20
lose. | do not know, but
imagine that such a proposition
has never been proposed to the
AttcnGcum trustees whatever.
and possibly it would be a waste
of time to ask them to consider It,
but certainly it would do 10 harm
to bring the proposition before
them and see what could be done
We know it is only a question
of time before the Government
viii require the present lot on
which the fire station stands and
it should be attended to at once.
In case this arrangement could be
brought around. it would be neces-
sary for the Athcnaeum to give
a right of way, say ten feet wide,
along their South line in order to
get to the house in the rear that
would be moved back and to ac-
comodate the Fire station building,
in getting in coal. etc, into their
cellar and it would be advisable to
buy a small plot of the Maple
Grove Company to square their
lot and possibly a little more.
In this arrangement, it would
give a lot for building purposes 30
feet front by possibly Is feet
deep and have plenty of room to
move the present house back upon
same. which would not iniure the
present building but very little
for rental purposes for a dwell
ing house.

CHATS WITH
YOUR
GAS MAN

Conversation overheard in q
grocery store:
Customer: Haven't got much
money left-just paid my gas
bill and you know what that
means"
Merchant: "Sure do. That
almost breGne = fellow no~a-
days
Funny how such statements
20 unchalIenged. For as a
matter of fact, the average bill
for gas service, or the bill for
combined utility service, is the
smallest necessary household
expense there is!
Gas service is about the least
expensive item in the house
wife's budget; vet the average
housewife could not do without
it. And the same thing is true
of the other essential public
utility services. They are said
10 be second only to the two
ent postage stamp as the cheap
est commodity purchassble by
any man, woman or child.
The statement that a gas bill
almost breaks a fellow nova
DAYS" is silly talk to those who
know that the American people
spend more for cigarettes and
soda water than they do for gas
service.

SAYS "WashbOards"
Caused by Speed

Commissioner T. w. Dix, state
highway commissioner, las issued
Il summary of answers to a quest
ionaire on "waShboards" roads
sent to the district commissioners.
1t is the experience of the district
men that the dashboard formation
does not prevail on the hills or
on the curves to any great extent.
Practically all reported washboard
is on roads subject to excessive
speed. The washboard can be con-
trolled to a certain extent by the
use of calcium chloride, homes,
drags and gravel, it is found. The
use of bank gravel with clay con-
tent is the remedy used in one
district.

THE "II.I'."

Probably there is no intelligent per son in this city who fails to realize that il Is the duty of every individual to do all that he or she is able to prevent the spreading of the influenza
 Every person, intelligent or not, has taken some thought in order to avoid it themselves. IL does not oc- cur to some, however, that they themselves and members of their own families win be much less likely to be afflicted by the disease if they them selves take proper precautions. Not only will they be less likely 10 give others the disease. if they are af fected by it. but their examples will suggest to others the wisdom of doing the little simple things necessary as precautionary measures, and of re- Training from doing other simple things.
 Of course everyone will be careful  this time. Precaution against taking cold does not mean the avoidance of the fresh air. Sometimes plenty of it helps cure d cold and certainly if keeps the system in a condition bet ter able to fight one off.
 There are two things that must be watched especially, however.
 If person has 10 expectorate that person must refrain from doing it near another person.
 If person has to cough that per son must not do it near another.
 The flu" is passed on through these agencies. It is absolutely nee essary to be extremely careful in both matters.

hardly visible, lt is safe to say how ever, that the hint has been taken hy some young women in this country and n tendency shown toward q re- turn to the fashions and the habit of other days,
 But the barest of hints is enough for the keen eyed, quick witted, ener- getic press agent He caught on. Then came the tragedies and disclosures of the motion picture world, lt became common to have reputation for wildness. the stories of the reckless ness of motion picture actresses and actors no longer reused curiosity; 1t was expected Of them, IL came to be popnlarly believed that they all had ''got like that" Disgust took the place of interest, The stage was all set for the entrance of a new star,
 Then the press agent got very busy. He discovered that certain star had never been talked of as being wild. reckless or improper. In fact she was quite the other sort apparently, Here, indeed, was something that would differentiate her in the popular mind from the others, IL should be played up. IL was played up. And so he conceived the slogan for his actress. 'The old-fashioned girl of the movies'
 Thereis no question but that it is good slogan There is no question but that it will attract people who have been reused to real or imaginary righteous indignation by some of the disclosures about motion picture in- dividuals,
 And the gentle hint is put out, in line with predictions made here months ago, that it would not be n bad slogan for any girl seeking popu- larity. The only trouble is that those who use such a slogan will not be, in fact, real old fla shioned girls" Real old d-fashioned girls do not need slogans, do not seek popularity--it, the best sort of popularity, will come, to them unsought.

CHANGES MADE IN
 1921 REVENUE ACT
Important Alterations in Reading
 Of Laws May Benefit Some

The Revenue Act Of 1921 contains n great many changes which may De Of hcnoht to some local persons or busi- ness concerns, r.
 Under the old law. exemptions for persons married and living with hus- band or wife whose incomes were less than s5,o0d amounted 10 s2,h00 with aH additional sao0 for cnch depend cnt,
 Marriage Exemption S2,5OO.
 Under the new law, persons who are married and living with husbanc and wife whose income amounted to less than s5,000 are exempt Tor $2,500 with m additional s4o0 for each dependent. A person who is termed as the head Of family is also entitled to the above. The exemption for single person. not the head of family. remains the same.
 Married persons with an income of over s5,ooo are exempt for s2,000.
 1T husband and wife make one return only one exemption of S2,5oo is allowed. If they make separate re- turns, they may divide the amount between them as they see fit.
 Business Losses.
 After December 3l, 1921. net losses, those occurring from business oper- ations only, or from the sale Of cap- tal assets used in business, may be deducted from the income of succeed ing years.
 Inventories.
 Inventories may be compiled from first cost or second cost or market price, whichever is lower, provided that this basis is followed consistent ly. The basis of compiling these in- ventories may be changed by ap- proval of the commissioner of intern al revenue.
 Cost is to be understood as the in- voice price. less trade or other dis counts, except cash discounts. Other deductions are the cost of inward freight and carriage and all other charges incurred in acquiring the goods.
 Losses on Wash Sales.
 Losses on wash sales cannot be de- ducted.
 When sales are made at loss and the identical property is reacquired, the sale is known as a wash sale. Ac- cordng to the Act of 1921, no loss can bI deducted when a sale or dis position of shares of stocks or securl- ties where the payer has acquired (other than by inheritance or be- ouesD substantially the same prop erty within 30 days before or after such sale or disposition.

These amounts must not be in excess of Is per cent of the actual in- come of the person making such do- nations.

PERFORMERS AND ENGLAND

One thing is quite certain. Ameri- can "reformcrs" must frown severe deprecdtion of English sentiment. There may be no question about it.. American reformers may excuse Eng land and English people for failing to adopt prohibitions; they may say that the English do not drink as the Americans do when they have the chance; they may urge all sorts of sophstrics in cNtenuaton of the peo- pie across the sea.
 But now, as said' before, American reformers must frown upon English sentiment severely.
 For Engishmen have nothing but American reformcrs need not criticise Englshmen for this. but this must be proper American rcformcrs attitude toward English sentiment is clear.
 
 Princess Mary the Englishmen would do nothing, of course, that would in- dicate disrespect. Were Englishmen to use Princess Mary's name. giving it to some flower. for instance, they would be sure that the flower was the sweetest, most beautiful flower in all the kingdom. They would not taint Princess Mary's name with disrespect by calling any other than the most perfect Of flowers the Princess Mary"
 But Englishmen have not named a flower after Princess Mary. They have named something else after her, and it follows that they must con- sider this thing they have named af- ter Princess Mary one of the most beautiful things of it's kind in the kingdom. And its kind" must be, in their opinion, a very beautiful kind. It is, according to their feeling.
 They have not named flower af- ter Princess Mary. They have named a cocktail after her. In reverent adoration the habitues of the most exclusive West End clubs are solemn ly sipping their Princess Mary Cock tails"
 Certainly American reformers must frown severely upon English senti- mcnt.
