 In regard 10 thos daylight saving going into effect Apriu 30th, 1t has not helped the working class, Some say 1t helps the fellow that has n garden but why start an hour early for work when it only helps about no gardeners out of every thousand working peo- ple? If the farmer spent all his time on the farm to supply the market why change the time when it does not help the farmers any, On the other hand the manufacturers say il saves light. They do not use lights in the summer months on standard time. If the manufacturers look up their produc- ton for the summer months on standard time they will see the pro- duction is smaller on daylight saving. Most people will agree that on day light saving time in the evening it is light when 1t is late thereby going to bed late and all in in the morning, not able to do good days work. If the factories were working until 3 o'clock at night 1t would be saving for them also helping the workingman but most of the factories are getting out at 4 o'clock. Why daylight saw ing? This daylight saving time is all right if the country goes on it but when one city goes on it and the other does not, if balls up every thing. The topic of the day is to help the manufacturers and also the busi- ness depression I suggest that they bring back light wine and beer, and cut cut personal and incomes taxes, then you will see the sun shine on both sides of the street for everybody. It would be then a great country to live in.

is strong and increasing. The completely
of modern life, the keen competition in
industrial life and the growing impor-
lance and difficulties of social and civic
problems are calling for better and more
adequate education. The chief way to
secure this is by better educated, more
highly teachers. The state board
of education and the commissioner, real
iZing this insistent need, have been Civ
ing special attention during the past
year. under the authority imposed by the
last legislature, to the extension and inn
provement of opportunities for educat-
ing and training teachers in Vermont.
Last year three standard two-year
training schools were established. at the
University of Vermont, Castleton, and
Lyndon Institute. In addition twenty
two One-year classes, giving the first
year course only, were conducted in Sc
lected high schools throughout the state.
In these schools over 400 young people
spent the year preparing themselves for
teaching the rural and elementary
schools of Vermont. During the year
the work done in these classes has been
standardized and improved, so that at
present all the classes are offering SINH
lar courses, thoroughly well organized
and balanced, and arranged to secure a
high degree of knowledge and skill. The
work includes both regular normal
training courses and actual practice
work under approved conditions.
Teaching offers an attractive opening
for capable young people-much more so
than in years gone by-both as regards
salary, service and opportunities for adj
vancement. This is especially true for
those who have had generous education
and training. Vermont, through its
training facilities, offers excellent Oppor-
tunities at very slight cost. Young men
and women are invited to give the call
ing of teaching serious consideration.

Might Have Been Done Before.
New York Times. J


Should present expectations in the
case of Frederick w. Birge of Middle
bury, Vt, be realized. in few days he
will walk for the first time in 80 years
since, at the age of If, he was vic
tim of infantile paralysis, a disease for
which at that time there was neither
remedy nor alienation.
That after the passage of so much
time anything could be done for the man
is something more than wonderful. but
doctors do things not infrequently now
2dayS that are more than wonderful,
and Birge may walk again.
1t is worth noting that it was no
eminent foreigner who undertook to cure
a misfortune that began SO long ago. 1t
was a New York surgeon who performed
the lOng-delayed operation as soon rs
the case had reached-through an in
telligent American nurse-the attention
of the managers of the United Hospital
fund, and it was in u New York hospital
that the months of treatment following
the operation were given.
The credit for the expected recovery
must be divided between the nurse up in
Nermont-her name seems to have been
foTgotten-who first suggested the posi-
bility of help. Dr. Robert Lovett of
Boston, who recommended treatment in
one of the institutions maintained by
the United Hospital fund, and DIR. Armi-
tage Whitman of this city. whose knife
set muscles and tendons free at last.

The tossing of banana peel by mo
torcyclist at a passing automobile on
the Williamstown Gulf road the other
day, was an act of thoughtlessness which
might have brought much more serious
results had the bank been sleeper or the
brook deeper. The flying object struck
tie driver of the car in the face causing
her to suddenly twist the steering wheel
just enough to send the car over bank
into a brook. The banana peel pitcher
should be mighty thankful that the oc-
cupants of the car escaped with nothing
more serious than thorough wetting
and considerable inconvenience.

LINKING VILLAGE AND FARM.

During the World war, on the eve of
the drive to raise the United War Work
fund, a Vermont village arranged a pa
triotic program of impressive character.
One of the features was a parade. 1t
was carefully planned and no effort was
spared apparently to make it an unquali-
fed success. 1t was interesting to note,
however, that while the men and women
and children of the village participated
in the activities and entered enthusiast
ticaIly into the spirit of the occasion, the
people from the nearby countryside who
had assembled at different vantage points
played no part in the order of the day.
This was not their affair. On the fol-
lowing day, however, solicitors were sent
through the rural districts from which
these people came in the attempt to
raise that portion of the towns quota
which ought to come from outside the
village limits. Carefully planned az
was this event, no recognition was made
of the important fact that the way to
interest people is to let them in on the
plan.
Failure to observe this principle is at
the root of most of the misunderstood
ngs which exist between village and
countryside today. Petty jealousies pre-
vent these areas from being welded into
an inseparable economic unit The most
careless observer must be conscious of
the fact that the Vermont village is the
natural trading center for the adjacent
farming territory. As such, the village
merchant should strive to win and retain
the friendship of the farmer. Failure so
to do means little short of deliberate
order house On the other hand, the
rural area should look to the village as
its social center-the place where civic
ideals must be generated and developed.
In the average Vermont community
there are many organizations composed
of men and women who are really eager
to do something to promote the public
welfare. But there is no team work on
the part of these groups. Progress
is stayed by duplication of effort. The
waste Of energy is appalling. The jeal
ousies are pathetic No one can expect
much success to come to that football
team, composed Of individually brilliant
players, which goes upon the gridiron III
September each man bent upon playing
the game for his own Qualification. That
team merits greater confidence which,
although made up of men of mediocre
ability, is permeated with the spirit of
team play-each player ready to forget
self and fight for the fair name of his
alma mater.
| So it is with communities. Team work
| is alI-important. That town will pros
per most, whatever its natural handicap
may be, which dispels antagonism be
| tween village and countryside and recog-
nizes the fact that local patriotism il
best engendered through visualizing the
possibilities of cooperation. In any
plan of town betterment it must never
| be forgotten that the country crossroads
deserves attention quite as much as does
the village common. We will do well
to remember that the man living at the
| four corners in the hills is as much a
citizen as the president of the village
corporation.
