Eddie Blair, aged IL, son of Mrs.
Henry Paro of Waterbury, lost his
left hand on a saw while working
with man named ST. Jacques and
another boy in wood lot on Cros-

the circular saw and his hand was
drawn in so that the teeth cut dag

cutting off the fingers and thumb.

the boy was taken in Fred Ravlin's

PRESS CLIPPINGS
The .Freeman's Oath.
Barre Times)

A woman voter who, apparently, is
DESTROYS of living up to the require
ments of her new estate as a voter,
asks The Times to print the free
mans oath, which all citizens must
take prior to assuming the rights of
voters; and we gladly comply. The
oath is as follows:
You solemnly swear (or affirm)
that whenever you give your vote or
suffrage, touching any matter that
concerns the state of Vermont, you
will do it as in your conscience you
shall Judge will most conduce to the
best good of the same, as established
by the constitution, without fear or
favor of any man.
The woman who made the request
said that not only she but a large
number of women desired to have an
opportunity to read and study the
oath, in view of the coming primary
election. 1t is a sign of good citizen
ship on their part that they should
desire to get at the fundamentals of
their citizenship. 1t will not do the
men any harm to read over again
the oath which they took on becom-

Out for Foote.
(Morrisville Messenger)

September IL Vermont will elect a
governor.
The real election was not changed
to November, only the name.
Now the September election is call
ed a primary.
But for over SO years the ticket
named by the Republican party has
been elected.
There is no contest except for gov
ernor on the state ticket.
Two good men there be from which
to choose.
One is a sturdy son of the soil,
Abram w. Foote, of Cornwall.
The other is son of an illustrious
family, whose father and brother
have been governors-and good ones
too-Redfeld Proctor.
Whether you like it or not, you
must choose between these two men.
The state will get a good man, in
either case.
Whether either measures up fully
to the needs of the times does not
matter now.
Which is the best, in the present
crisis?
That is all there is to it.
All that Abraham w. Foote is, he
has achieved himself
1t is a record any farmers boy
will do we'll to emulate.
He has made farming pay. That is
something of an achievement.
He has succeeded in business, as
witness the success he has made of
the Addison County Telephone Co.
The government at Washington in
vestigated his record and appointed
him as agent for the federal farm
loan in Vermont.
Being a comparatively poor man,
and farmer, he knows how the ex-
cessive state taxes, piled on town,
school and other taxes, pinch.
He stands pledged to rigid economy
and no state tax, if the voters will
elect him, and legislature pledged
to the same.
1t is not for us to tell anyone how
they should vote, but we shall vote
for Abram w. Foote, because we be-
lieve he is the best man.

Jay Peak Pictures.
(Hindley in Rutland Herald)

| (Hlndley in Rutland Herald)
Yes, it pays to advertise.
My little squeal about pictures Oh
Jay Peak got action.
First, Carl Carpenter of Richford
failing to find any pictures of the
peak in town that suited him, just
naturally grabbed a photographer
and hiked out into the country and
shot the range from a convenient
point along the Missisquoi.
Of course, in the right fore ground
there is a manufacturing establish
ment of some kind, suggesting de-
cayed beet-sugar refinery-probably
some local enterprise that Carl has
raised from a scheme-which sug-
gests that it might be a chamber of
commerce booster picture, but there
is the peak, sure enough, with it's
handsome true-cone contour, rising
majestic in the distance.
Trouble is-all these pictures are
little too far in the distance. 1t is
almost impossible to get closeup of
the peak, owing to the way it is sur
rounded by other peaks, rough hills
and woodlands. That's why l sug-
gested that some one shoot it from an
airplane.
Carl could have done it just before
he crashed at North Troy, but it isn't
the simplest thing taking pictures
from plane.
There's photographer in Newport
who is going to try a telephoto lens
on it, which promises some results.
l had just the same experience get
ting pictures of Mt. Rainier when we
were on the coast. All the cameras
l tried failed.
To start with, there were only a
few days when the great peak was
in good visibility. (Forty miles i
some shot, anyway Then the usual
lenses just naturally flattened down
the mount, so it either looked like d
face of infinity.
Then came fellow who rugged up
an old-fashioned bellows camera,
equipped it with double lens and a
telephoto over all, and practically
brought the mountain into the back
yard of town.
Most anything can be photograph
| ed if someone will take trouble
enough, but it needs some enthusiast
| like Carpenter or Jim Taylor or
| Charlie Cooper, who is willing to put
the time into it.
| Also a photographer who is willing
to take day off and do considerable
fussing for the purpose of getting q
unique picture.
Carts photo is the best that has
been made so far, but here comes a
Mrs. w. w. Lucier of North Troy,
who says there is fine view of the
range and the peak from her place.
She encloses a snapshot, which
rather features a load of manure and
q scrub tree in the foreground, but
which shows a very fine outline of
the mountains on the horizon.
Mrs. Lucier's effort is duly enter
ed. Thanksl

TREE MEMORIALS

Our suggestion of trees on the
roadside between Orleans and Barton
as a memorial to the soldiers of the
World war from the town of Barton
finds reaction in approval of the sug-
gestion by many, and in a suggestion
from a Derby man who wants the
same thing between Derby Line and
Newport. Here is the suggestion as
printed in the Stanstead Journal:
AS the proper time of the year for
transplanting trees approaches, the
month of October, there comes to
mind the thought that Derby should
soon provide memorial for it's World
war heroes. What could be more fit
ting than the setting of trees on the
highway from Derby Line to New
port city's easterly line, placing them
so feet apart on both sides of the
highway where they are needed, US
ing those already there as a part of
these two lines of memorial trees.
About 600 would be required in adj
dition to those now growing in these
two lines be used. The work could be
should be used. The work could be
done by the property owners along
the route under the direction and
with the assistance of a committee
competent to do this work.
What could be more fitting or more
beautiful as time goes on. Was it
not Joyce Kilmer who wrote that lit
tie poem, ''Trees," and was not he a
soldier:
I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth's sweet flowing
breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make tree.

Everyone seems to talk about econ
omy but no one appears to consider
the tax problem from the appraisal
end as having bearing on economy.
A moments thought will convince
anyone, however, that the question of
just and equitable valuations and
placing the tax burden where it be-
longs will soon stop exhorbitant ex-
penditures. Judging from the long
reports of various grievience days,
however, and several letters appear
ing in the state press from the peo-
pie, the quadrennial appraisal just
completed in the towns of this state,
is meeting with some resistance upon
the part of many taxpayers. And in
scarcely an instance do we find the
grieved taxpayer finding fault with
his appraisal as such, but always his
appraisal compared with values plac-
ed upon some other property. 1t is
not the tax after all which is the
trouble but uneven distribution Of the
tax that hurts.

Miss Carrie w. Ormsbee of Bran
don, president of the league OF Wom-
en- Voters of Vermont, has been scrut-
inizing the records of Candidates
Foote and Proctor when in the senate.
Of course she finds them both clean,
but notes that Senator Foote voted
for, Senator Proctor against, a bill
to give women the same right as men
in voting for presidential electors and
their votes were cast in the same way
as to a bill extending the right of
suffrage to women, providing for
referendum thereon" Summing up,
President Ormsbee says:
Whatever their estimate of the
character and abilities of the two
men may lead them to decide as to
their vote at the primary election,
Lieutenant Governor Foote deserves
and, am sure, has the gratitude OF
all those who believe in the immense
possibilities for good inherent in the
vote of women and in the primary
for he has on every possible occasion
consistently advocated and supported
participation of women in civic at
fairs and also the adoption and reten-
ton of the primary"
