Local Support for Rural
Schools Needed in Vermont

from the outside, is a remarkably poor
stick to lean on, and never gets anybody
very far. What is needed is renewal
OF The sacred American feeling of per-
sonal responsibility about public affairs
and our schools. After all, the very
name district school, means that it
belongs TO and should be protected by
the district where it stands. If We saw
our district school going up in flames, we
would tear out and get together to put
out the. fire. But we do mot seeets the
slow, smokeless burning out of decay
which goes on slowly before our eyes,
year by year, and which reduces our
schools in value and efficiency. If we
saw a tramp. snatching from a school
child his lunch for that day, we would
boil with Indignation and feel it our
plain duty to protect the defeneeless
child. But we do not see ignorance,
'robbing our children of their fair equal
in life, not for a single day, but for all
their years to come. And yet, we have
arms with which to protect them against
this danger.
Possible Improvements.
Those arms are within any Vermont
er's reach They are the same energy,
inventiyeness and perseverance with
which we keep our personal affairs going
and our own homes safe, cheerful and
worthwhile.
with our energy we can turn TO anu
improve the material side of our educa-
tional outfit. We can easily solve this
problem and we might transform any
dreary, depressing schoolhouse into a
bright, attractive School-home, which
will inspire both teacher and pupils to q
quickened. more active school life. With
our ingenuity, our Yankee. Vermont in
yentiveness, which does not fail us in
difficult moments in our personal lives
we can. each in his own way, devise
ways for making country teaching inter
eSting and dignified and worthwhile, SO
that our girls graduating from their nor
NAL courses will be eager to undertake
it, instead of dreading and fearing it
so that our boys and girls will be drawn
towards the school as towards a magnet
OF interest. so that we ourselves will
feel il as il ought to be. as the very
center of our neighborhOod life. With
our perseverance,. that steadineSS of pur
pose which was so marked a character
fstie of our forefl theirs in their strug
this, we can stick to this campaign for
better schools in country districts, till
we have in each of our country districts
clean, bright. pleasant school building
radiating intelligence, faith in country
life and hope for the future, to every
child depending on it.
The Schoolhouse is our fortress against
evils which threaten the best in Amer
lean life We have not kept its defenses
up to date. We have allowed rust and
damp and neglect to impair its efficiency.
Every child we pass on our Vermont
roads, should be a challenge to US, to
provide him with better schooling. We
can if we will.

The state board of education has tried,
on its part, to do its fair share OF ris-

things: They have set aside a fund OF
$4,000 to help in this work; they have
created the position of supervisor of ru-
raj schools and they have put in it the

ATHLETICS LOSE
TO GREENE Held
FOrty-Seyen Fouls Called in
Weird Game of
Basketball
FLOOR HAD BEEN
WAXED FOR DANCE
Final Score - to If - About 30 Fans
Accompanied Athletics to Greenfield
Encounter Between Perrin and Dun
levy Nipped by Police.

About 80 local fans went to Green
field last night aud saw the Brattleboro
Athletics drop q weird game of basket
ball to the Greenfield A. A. team. The
final score was 27-14. 49,
A country funeral was a wild time
compared to the major part of this
game, as practically all the time was
taken up in trying to cage the ball on
free tries. The locals got eight points
from free tries out of 90 chances, while
the Greenfielders shot five fouls out of
IS chances. To add to the enjoyment
of the locals, the basketball floor had
been waxed for a dance the night before,
and the fast floor work which has won
most of this seasons games for the To-
Gals was impossible.
Batch" Dunlevy got the first basket
of the game on a pretty shot from the
side, but the Greenfelders came back
with some fancy skating and scored
points from baskets and fouls before the
locals picked up another lone point from
a free try.
In the second period the Athletics
scored Il additional points on two
pretty baskets from the floor and seven
successful free try shots. while the
GrCenfielders took better advantage OF
the intermissiOns between foul shots,
scoring 80 points. The feature of this
period, however, was not the weird bas-
kctball, but an encounter between Pet
rim, a well known fighter, who was play
ing for Greenfield, and Bernard Dun
levy. the locals well known guard. The
Greenfielders had been fouling Burn"
considerably throughout the game, SO
when Petrin started to take a free ride
on Burns" back, the Greenfield player
took flying somersault over Bernard
shoulder and hit the floor hard At this
point Petrin lost his temper and hit
Dunlevy. Before the latter could get
in his first one, however Policemen
O'COnnen and Burns were on hand and
things quoted down. After the game
a crowd of Greenfield fans waited out

up, but they were disappointed as the
