HARRIS PROPOSES
SCHOOL OUTING CLUB
Speaks at Assembly OH Subject of Out
door Sports - Leaves with School
Exhibit of Pictures.

Fred H. Harris. an alumnus of b. II.
s., spoke to the high school at assembly
yesterday morning on the subject of out
door sports He spoke of the effort being
made in New England to arouse enthu-
siasm in winter sports so that the sum
mer visitors will come back in the winter.
Brattleboro is doing her share by keeping
skating rink in shape, holding a winter
carnival, and planning ski jump which
promises to be better than the one at
Dartmouth.
Mr.. Harris suggested that an Outing
club be formed in the high school, to, pro-
mote such sports as skiing, snowshoeing,
skating, hiking, camping, canoeing, and
nature-study. He also suggested that the
officers and fitting name for such a
club be selected Immediately; though no
active work need be carried on until after
mid-year examinations. He stated that
the people of the town look to the high
school to start things and that they are
always ready to follow the lead.
Mr.. Harris spoke of the Green Noun
tain club trail which starts near Ben
nington and follows the ridge of the Green
mountains nearly to the Canadian border,
saying that the trail could also have a
starting place at Brattleboro.
\ local citizen has offered lumber for
three cabins if the tOwnspeople will break
a trail from here to Stratton mountain
and build the cabins.
In closing, Mr.. Harris said that he
wished an Outing club might be formed
and put Ii. II. =. in the pioneer class for
outdoor sports in high schools. as Dart
mouth is a pioneer among the colleges
Mr.. Harris left with the school an ex-
hibit of splendid pictures showing various
phases of winter sports.

Turner's Falls to Meet Il. III. S. in Festi-
val Hall at O'clock.

The b. II. S. basketball team will play
the Turner's Falls team Friday evening at
s O'Clock in Festival hall. The Il. II. S.
quintet has been hard at work all the
week and has developed n splendid de-
Tense. In years past Turner's Falls has
always had n fine team. Last year
Brattleboro won one game from Turner's
Falls, and Turner's Falls won one game
from Brattleboro. The game is sure to be
an exciting one and deserves a good at
tendance both from the school and the
town.
Another drawing card is the game be-
tween the halves. The Twirling Der
vishers. captained by Harry Harlow, have
challenged the page-Wilson team. This
is the first public appearance of these

DRUGS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE
Federal Officers Trying To Break Up

MANCHESTER, y. T.. Jan. 1O-That
Manchester. Concord, Rochester, Ports
mouth and other New Hampshire cities
are distributing centers for cocaine, NOR
phine. heroin and other narcotic drugs.

of a New England syndicate or ring that

Piles
Can't Be Cured from the Outside.

Can't he Cured from the Outside.
External treatments seldom cure Piles.
Nor do surgical operations.
The cause is inside-bad circulation.
The blood is stagnant, the veins fiabby.
The bowel walls are weak, the parts
almost dead.
To quickly and safely rid yourself of
piles you must free the circulation-send
a fresh current through the stagnant
pools. Internal treatment is the one safe
method. Ointments and cutting won't
do it.
J. S. Leonhardt NJ. D., a specialist, set
at work some years ago to find a real
internal remedy for piles. He succeeded.
He named his prescription HEM-ROID,
and tried it in 1000 cases before he was
satisfied. Now HEM-ROID is sold by
druggists everywhere under guarantee. 1t
is a harmless tablet, easy TO take, and
can always be found at the Brattleboro
Drug Co and all druggists everywhere,
who viii gladly refund the purchase price
to ,anySaissatisfied eugt0mer. Advertise

EDITORIAL.

The winter carnival, which is to be
staged in Brattleboro Thursday and Fri
day, is indirectly the result of a campaign
throughout New England for the promo
ton Of organized winter sports. Socially,
winter sports have been promoted by the
Community Service with the result that
Brattleboro is to have what is probably
its very first winter carnival. Such car
nivals have been held in various parts of
the state in previous years with great
success. With the competent leadership
of committee of men experienced in or
ganized winter sports, one of whom was
instrumental in organizing the Wood
stock winter carnival, live program is
assured.
The town necessarily looks to Il. II. s.
for the leadership in sports of the town,
whether they may be football, baseball,
basketball, track. or some other sport.
Winter sports at present come under the
class of some other sport" but with an
efficient Outing club such as is being or
ganized we hope may be considered as i'm
portant as other major sports of b. II. 5.
and that they may have the added advan-
tage of drawing large numbers of stu
dents into them. The town looks to us
to start winter sports. Let's show them.
Now is a good time to learn to ski.

There are gradually increasing
wrinkles in the visases of oficta's
ct tho tax collecting forces of the
District on account of the poSSlb'lt-
ties confronting them in case the
District taxpayers next year are
forced to pay taxes twice a year
under the new District bill pro-
visions Some of the reasons fol-
low:
There's a force of exactly thirty
one human beings in the office OF the
collector of taxes, although others
may he taken OH in case of emer-
genCy.
There are 1000 realty taxpayers.
Consequently. there are exactly
$1,000 realty tax cases for the thlr-
ty-one employees to handle.
There are about $1,000 tangible
and intangible personal taxpayers.
Consequently. there are total Oh
III 900 accounts. realty and per-
Sonal. for the thirty-one employees
TO handle.
The taxes run from cents to
10000. Now the SiO.n00 bills are
all right for division in the year.
But there are thousands between
the two-cent and twenty-dollar
mark. which would mean extra work
for little return to divide into two
collections of from | cent to $40 in
November and | cent to SO in the
Spring.
Evening star., 1922-06-23
TAX COLLECTORS D4ZED BY CHANCE
or HAVING II1OOO BILLS IN YEAR

If the realty taxes were made
subject to two payments per year.
il can be easily seen that the III
600 accounts would rise to $4,000
accounts, because ii would mean
just the doubling of the $4,000
realty tax accounts. In other
words, the realty tax account would
take up twice as much time, be-
cause there would be one collection
in the fall and one collection in the
spring.
But. to add mountain to a
mountain. il the personal, tangible
and intangible. accounts have to pc
handled twice year, it would
simply mean that the thirty-one
employees in the tax collecting
forces would have to handle 234.-
600 accounts each year-which is a
cause for wrinkles gathering on
the viSa9e of any person.
Chatham Towers, the collector of
taxes. said today that the only way
he could see out of the labyrinth.
IN case the twice n year tax Collec-
ton system becomes fact in
realty and personal taxes both.
would be to rely on the unfailing
good nature of the Washinetonian
who by the way. Mr.. Towers
claims is the best type of taxpayer
in the country and the prompteSt-
and have the taXpaying resident of
the National Capital pay the whole
tax in November on his own initia-
tive. instead of splitting it.

A PATH.

Before the tariff conference COM
mittee Saturday, Senator Kellogg
took out a pencil to show the mem
bers that proposed duty on shingles
would cost the Minnesota farmer
alone something like $500,0OO a year.
and he incidentally added that the
schedule amounted to little short of
political idiocy, an excellent and a
vigorous way of putting it. There is
a great danger, however, in Senator
Kellogg's example. An ingenious
public, imbued with the odd idea that
a principle which works so well in
one case deserves to be applied no
less vigorously elsewhere may be
tempted also to take a pencil and
make some estimates of its own.
IF a tariff on shingles will cost the
farmers of Minnesota $780, 900 an
nually, how much will the 220-1.76
rate on sugar take out of my pocket"
it will ask, and set about to see. 1t
may be tempted to calculate the
drain which the 3l-cent rate on wool
will work on its pocketbook. Once
its curiosity is aroused there is no
telling where the inquiry may lead.
In the end, there is a danger that
tht consumer (and voter) will come
to see the tariff bill only as one long
and sustained attack on his pocket.
He may conclude that the bill, with
its several score thousands of items,
has not been framed in his interest,
and no one can tell what conclusions
he may draw once he has gone that
far.
We do not offer this suggestion to
the Republican leaders in any spirit
OF criticism, for indeed we have the
greatest sympathy with them in the
unfortunate position in which they
find themselves, with the November
elections coming on and all that.
But we submit that it is a danger, and
we bring it forward so that if any
one in the future should take pencil
in hand to do any figuring, the con-
sequences may be thoroughly under
stood. Too much figuring must not
be encouraged.-St. Paul Pioneer
Press.
