A Shirtsleeves Song

By those who rules of conduct quote, Pm told man must keep his coat, cen though the hotness get his goat. O. when the sun pours torrid heats upon the houses and the streets and when the women, lovely dears, are keeping cool except their ears, with nice silk stockings on each frame, and other clothes 1 may not name, with little waist and still less skirt; why should I. fear to show my shirt? When summer sinners hot as Hades, let's take a tip from these wise ladies. O, on the farm where l was born we took no thought for customs scorn and when we found our bodies wet with precipitation or with sweat I will confess cen though it hurts we peeled right down to undershirts. Yea, when we saw the heat waves dance we often longed to shuck our pants. With no one but ourselves to please, we should have worked in B. V. D's. And still, when things grow hot as Tophet, Pm bound to grab my coat and doff it. My old blue shirt is clean and neat, my stout suspenders can't be beat. With half my buttons in their places, why should I wish to hide my braces? When northern zones have tropic heats, when Sol unclouded on ns beats, that outer garment l shall dump it; if folks don't like it they can lump it.

FORESTRY EXPERTS TELL
 OF PINE BLISTER RUST
(Continued from page 1) Where Disease Came From


 MT. Filley stated that the reason we imported stock was because it was impossible to reproduce pine in this country at any where nea- tne cost of foreign stock. These impor- tations of foreign stock are the cause of the present disease, but if we had not imported any stock the disease would have been here just the same, for investigation has prov en that it existed in other parts of the country.
 Only by eliminating one of the two hosts of the fungus can the disease be stamped out. That is either the pine or the currant and gooseberry bushes must be destroyed. In places where entrants and gooseberries are raised on a large scale it might be advisable to destroy the pine. But the pine is safe if these bushes are pulled up within a radius of 1000 feet.
 This particular locality is where the wild currant and gooseberry bushes are found in large numbers. That is why it seems necessary to organize in order to control the disease. Along the eastern and northern borders of the state where the disease is also found, the num- bers of the bushes is comparatively small.
 In 1917 the legislature gave the Experiment Station the authority to investigate the blister rust and if thought advisable to destroy all pine infected, or establish a quarantine There is plenty authority to enforce the law, but so far it has not been found necessary as the people have been willing to cooperate.
 Cooperation Wanted
 MT. Filley stated that eradication of blister rust was being done on a cooperative basis in various places That is the state would pay one half the cost and the towns or owners of timber lands the other half. The money was usually raised by appro- priations from the town or personal contributions.
 It is expected that the principal work in the eradication of blister rust will be done in Salisbury next year and the problem must be solved at once to be effective. Investiga- tions show that there are about 5000 acres in the town tha5 require cleaning up. The work on 268 acres this year showed the cost to be about 85c per acre. In this cleaning up process the average shows that 95 e of the eurrant and gooseberry bushes are usually found.
 The estimated cost to clean up all land in Salisbury is $7,50O, of which the state will pay one-half. The work would require at least two years, therefore the cost would be distribu- ted over that period, making a total yearly expenditure on the part of the town of $1,750 necessary.
 The Program
 The program of eradication, ac- cording to MT. Filley, is to first clean up Salisbury, which is the center of infection in this section. Then work will be done in the fol lowing towns in the order given: Canaan, North Canaan and Corn wall. Three things must be remem- bered. The rust is 'aere: It can be controlled We can eradicate if through cooperation. What we arc trying to protect, is not so much the big trees which all admire, but the

OUR TOWN

The essay contest conducted by the acting editor of the News during the past two weeks; on What is the matter win my home town, brought forth several responses relative to what is or isn't wrong with the town. As a newspaper feature it has it's advantages, creating both interest and criticism; furthermore it gives the chronic "knocker" an opportun- ity to declare himself--if he is not afraid to do so over his signature.
 We have found from experience that the home town, good, bad or indifferent, is to the native much like the story. of the Irishman and his wife. If it isn't it should be. The story tells us that the Irishman and his wife were having a sortie when an outsider attempted to in- tercede. Immediately the couple dropped their personal quarrel and attacked the interloper with such determination that he was forced to sojourn for a time in a hospital. The moral is: the Irishman and his wife settled their personal differ ences in their own way. Every town has it's problemsS can Lest be solved by the townspeople. Outside interference is neither desirable nor necessary. r>.......5 .,-.
 If one was to summarize his criti- cisms of the town, its people, man. agement, spirit of prograssiyeness, etc., by comparison with similar towns the answer to the query could be but one thing Nothing! It is the continual change in the mental attitude of the rising generation that magnifes the lack of vision in older men and women. It is this same change, \with it's snap judgment and attendant instability, that if given free range would wreck the most perfect organization.
 There are desirable qualities which could be more distinct in our town, but the discussion of their
  tive nor a panacea. What this town needs most-the need of every town . and the world in general-is for it's people to forget their petty selfish ness, which they attempt to disguise as ambition and espouse the cause of charity in all things. A sympathetic understanding of the less fortunate, a breadth of vision coupled with sufficient starch in their backbones which will countenance no wrong in word or deed.
 Virtue, in it's relation to veracity, fidelity and business integrity, is often lack of opportunity to be otherwise.
 All too often is the cloth of pro- fession, the title of position or the imbecility of the ignorant, used as an entering wedge preliminary. to a conversation where character is de- famed, wisdom made light of and noteworthy ambitions scoffed at and slandered. There is more truth than poetry in the saying that: ''There is so much bad in the best of us and so much good in the worst of us, that it hardly behooves any of us to talk about the rest of us."

Among the nine aspirants for the nomination of state senator, appears the name of Editor George c, Woodruff. Politics are a popular pastime for the newspaper frater- nity since Editor Harding became President. Yet we feel sure the title would be equally as becoming to Editor Woodruff as did that of Major.
