THE SUMMER SESSION

That Middlebury's summer schools
are recognized the country over as
offering unusual opportunities to ser
ious-minded students is plainly evil
dent to one who takes the time to
glance at the list OF those enrolled.
The list contains students from many
states seeking to gain additional pro-
fcency in French, Spanish, English,
chemistry or music There are AS
enrolled in the five separate schools,
which represents an increase Of fiji
teen per cent over last year.
Just as Middlebury College is each
year appreciated by an increasing
number of secondary school graduates
who recognize the advantage of the
wholesome atmosphere Of an insti-
tuition that offers such thorough
courses, so does the summer session
appeal to advanced students. The
growth during the fourteen years of its
existence has been steady With its
reputation gaining year by year, it
will be but a short time before the
Accommodations will be heavily taxed
if all who seek this summer opportun-
itv are received
The delightful informality of the
method of instruction appeals strong
ly to those who have been under the
strain of rigid classroom rules al
year. This. perhaps, is especially SC
of the English school which is con

WHAT FLEETWOOD FOUND

All the talk about that First dis
trict congressional job going beg
ging was apparently chatter and
groundless We now have two avowed
candidates after the post, one in a
most assidious manner Preston, of
Fair Haven admits that he is a can
didate, and friendly, if loquacious,
Martin Villas, permanent fixture from
the county of Chittenden in the state
senate says that it is time that he
shook the small town dust from his
brogans, and nabbed off a ringsde
seat in the main bout Martin has
even gone so far as to tell us what he
would do and how he would do it
when the referee calls upon the gen
tleman from Vermont II letter
writing counts Mr. Villas already has
strangle hold on that seat of dig
nifty
But wait, there's trouble ahead
Beseeched by friends here, there and
everywhere, Frederick G Fleetwood,
successful Vermonter, good fellow, a
bit debonnair and one-time popular
secretary of state, crawls over into
one corner on that back seat of his
Packard, and says, on James, let's
take a slant at this west side prop
osition mavbe there's something to
it after all" The charming weather,
the back seat of the Packard, the cor
dial handshakes of old-time friends,
Vermont's soothing gravel roads, all
must have combined in a conspiracy,
for Mr. Fleetwood headed north from
Bennington very well pleased with
the general appearance of the west
side. He is probably writing his plat
form this very minute. At any rate
we have been quite reliably informed
by one who is not in politics, but who
manages to get together iniallably &C
curate information, that Mr.. Fleetwood
will he a candidate for Congress.
He is the best bet thus far among
those who have expressed serious de-
sires for the votes of the weSt-siders

A STATE FUNCTION

The Atlanta Constitution, a long
time advocate of preservation of state
rights, undertakes to place upon the
Harding administration responsibility
for the massacre of coal miners at
Herrin, Illinois According to the At
lanta paper, the President should have
taken steps to prevent the massacre
The plain fact is that the preservation
of order is a state function, guarded
by the fundamental law OF the land
Only on the application of the state
legislature. or of the Governor when
the legislature is not in session, can
the President use the power of the
Federal Government to protect a state
against a domestic violence II Pres
ident Harding should use Federal
troops to quell every outbreak and to
prevent threatened outbreaks, the
Atlanta Constitution would be one
of the first papers to protest against
the invasion of state rights by the
Federal Government.

does not seem to be very peppery as
vet There are four good men out for
the two jobs, each one with a CON
siderable following and something to
his credit that could easily recon-
mend him to the voters of the county
as a safe and reliable legislator. We

With the decision of Major H. Mel
son Jackson to stay out of the fight
for the United States senatorship, re-
gardless of constant urging on the part
of many friends, the possibility of a
sharp and bitter contest for the NOM
nation vanishes. Congressman
Greene will probably drop anchor in

The British owners of the Holt
steamship line deny that there is any
obligation on the part of a ship cap
tain to respond to the SOS call Of
another vessel in distress. At the
time of the sinking of the steamer
Egypt, it was claimed that one of the
Holt vessels was in the vicinity and
heard the SOS from the Egypt but
did not go to her aid Fortunately,
American ship owners subscribe to no
such heartless rule of the sea. Pros

JACKSON NOT A CANDIDATE

Despite entreaties of friends in all
parts of the state, and notwithstand-
ing that petitions containing several
thousands of names confronted him
on his return from mission for the
American Legion in Europe, Major
H. Nelson Jackson decides that he
will not be a candidate for nomination
for the office of the United States
Senator. Sordid politics does not dim
his vision Of cause for humanity.
Major Jacksons decision hinges up
on a reluctance to leave a work which
he has but just started and which he
would not forsake even for the chance
of becoming a member OF such an
august body as the United States SEN
ate. We refer to his work in the in
terests, and for the good, of the dis
abled soldier
When he was elected national vice
commander of the American Legion,
Major Jackson was asked what he in
tended to do He replied that he
thought he would fight for the cause
of the disabled buddy, and act as a
sort of a watchdog between the dis
abled veteran and the Veterans Blu
reau of the government He did so.
And suddenly he discovered that he
had an immense proposition on his
hands, calling for tremendous am
cunt of energy, time, perseverance
and strength.
As national vice-commander, the
Major has taken upon himself the
many burdens which are weighing
down the disabled soldier who has
been thrown from his balance, sick or
discouraged, after fighting his coun-
try's battles across the seas. He sees
conditions that in some cases are APP
palling and he remedies them de-

Aledo, April Invited to at
1end a silly spree" members of G.
E. Blatt's Sunday school class of
the First Presbyterian church be-
took themselves to the home of
Miss Edna Merryman on South
College avenue.
Upon the arrival at the Merry
man home it looked as though
someone had played an unpardon-
able prank for sign on the door
said April fool" A closer investi-
cation showed that the readers
were expected to congregate at the
(. w. Lewis home on South Maple
street, where the event was staged.
Various novel entertainment fea-
lures were INDUCED in. One was a
one-act comedy. After the cast had
been selected, the name of the farce
was announced as ''The Gathering
OF. the Nuts" With this announce
ment the presentation came to an
end. After refreshments were
served and before the guests de-
parted all were searched to see
that they were not carrying away
any silverware. Spoons were
z brought to light from the pockets
of both Rev. Arrick and Mr.. Plat.
AS the spoons were made of paper
at the hearing which followed the
gentlemen pleaded to be let go as
they thought the spoons were souv-
tenirs. After being severely repri-
manded they were released.
