fore the convention of the. American
Bankers association on the subject of
Preparations and international Debts.
is FORMER British cabinet minister who
has distinguished himself successfully
at the bar. in politics, and in finance.
In his early career he became known as
the cleverest corporation lawyer in Eng
land, with a practice that brought him
in a very big income indeed. When he
decided to enter politics he gave up his
legal practice, and made up his mind
that he would get among the big guns
quickly. And he did. He first attracted
wide attention during the administra-
ton of Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman,
who made the young lawyer secretary
Of the treasury. Promotion came rap

this method the unevenness of the sur
face is continually filled. Down this
way you don't see a quarter as many
drags per mile of road as are seen in
most of the northern counties, and
when you do see them down here they
are not in operation"
The foregoing comparison may be
somewhat eoverdrawn but The Meddler
believes it offers an explanation of the
superiority Of the roads in central and
northern Vermont over those in this
county. 1t all may be summed up~~in
the one word maintenance. Upstate
folks take care of their gravel highways
in the right way we don't. Where the
blame lies The Meddler does not pre-
tend to say, but he is convinced that
the people of this county ought not to
rest content until they find out where
the trouble is and see that it is cor
rected.
Saving money on a police department
or fire department by keeping it at
low efficiency is about the same sort of
economy rs doing without insurance it
isn't economy at all. The village com
missioners might well reflect upon this
fact in connection with happenings of
the past week.

The "Raoued SchooImaster."

Johannes Daniel Falk, a native OF
Weimar Germany, was called the
ragged schoolmaster," not because he
dressed In rags, but because he estab
lished the first institution in Germany
for the care and education of neglected
and orphan children. In 1913 he or
ganized in Weimar the Society OF
Friends in Need, and the same year he
started his ragged school,"
Both the society and the school did
a good work, and the latter soon came
to be an important factor in the edu-
cational system of the city. In 1928
the school was taken over by the state
and it still exists under the name,
"Falksche Institute"
Falk was a poor boy, without much
formal education, though by his own
efforts he acquired considerable learn.
