holes, etc The Meddler does not intend
TO belittle this sort of maintenance: on
certain roads it is excellent. In the case
of Putney road, however, more of the
surface viii blow away on a busy day
than any patrolman can put back.
Whether or not any effects of last years
oiling are evident on Putney road, it is
fact that much more of that highway
is where it belongs than would have
been the case if oil had not been used
Furthermore, The Meddler is convinced,
wholly aside from the question of com
fort. that both state and town funds are
being unwisely spent when they go for
patrol work. instead of oil on this par9
ticular project.
No figures are available to show how
many automobiles have been sold in
Brattleboro this season, but from all in
dications, including reports from some
dealers, it is pretty close to a record
breaker. Certainly appearances point
that way. Traffic on Main street is al
ready as heavy as it was last year at the
height of the tourist season, and the vii
lage commissioners face an important
problem in the matter Of regulation.
There is little doubt that existing rules
viii have to be changed and new ones
enacted if anything like efficient hand
ling of traffic is to be in effect this year.
One of the worst places is Main street
between the corner of Flat street and
the plaza. Parking on at least one side
of the street ought to be prohibited en-
tirely and that should include the bridge.
Commenting on The Meddler's refer
ence to the plaza in last weeks column
correspondent asks if some concerted
action cannot be taken toward the gen.
eral care and improvement of this spot,
and suggests the planting of a few
trees and shrubs properly arranged, with
regard to park-like effect, in some COM
beauties of both park and lawn" Con-
tinuing in his suggestion, which The
AIeddler is glad to pass along this cor
respondent asks Wouldn't it be a
good plan to have a few trees-some of
the naples, pin-oak, elm or tulip-set
out there where they would prove val
liable as they grew, and along the bor-
ders a few groups of various hardy
shrubs. with also some vines and creep
ers climbing the rocky backgrounds
And speaking of might-have-beens, as
brought to mind by The Meddler's re-
cent reference to the kerosene lantern in
the town hall corridor, another CORE
spondent writes: Il was told by
neighbor who attended the Princess NOV
les Monday evening that on leaving the
theatre she saw that an automobile had
been parked in the alley to the east of
the building during the entire perform
ance, filling the whole space and block
ing the only exit in case of emergency
Just as she noticed it the owner climbed
into the car and backed it out among
the crowd of people leaving the building,
Of course running a big chance of injur-
ing someone"

The MeddIer
eff the coat cts you, put 1t on"

For some time The Meddler has held
the opinion that it would be mutually
advantageous to the state and to the
Rrattleboro Retreat if the two were in
closer relation in the administration of
the local institution. As things are now,
the state has a considerable interest in
the Retreat on account of the several
hundred patients which it supports there,
but has nothing whatever to say as to
how the institution shall be managed. Ii
ought to have a voice in this matter; in
fact, The Meddler believes that the in
stitution itself would be a decided gamer
under such an arrangement. Suppose,
for example. that the trustees, who now
have one vacancy on their board, should
fill it by naming the director of state in
stitutions to the place. The state would
then have representation, while the
trustees as a board would be greatly
strengthened by the addition of one
closely in touch with all matters per-
tanning to the care of tn insane. The
Retreat has problems ahead of it just
at this time that make the need of such
help as the director of state institutions
could give especially important, although
for that matter SO long as state patients
are kept here there would never be a
time when his assistance would not be
valuable

All The Meddler cares to say just at
present in reference to the oiling of
,Putney road is that when the selectmen
turned the road over to the state under
the patrol system they drove a pretty
poor bargain. 1t was done, too, The
Meddler understands, against the advice
of the road commissioner and at least
one member of the board. On the face
of it the arrangement looks good-$225
a mile from the state in return for SIS
a mile from the town, but the flaw in it
is that the state does not provide either
surface treatment or dustlaying, merely
a man and a cart to rake up stones, fill

DECLARES ADVERTISING
AIDS BIG BUSINESS

ATLANTIC CITY, Nov. 26.-Ten
per cent of the man power Of the
United States are behind counters,
was the startling declaration yester-
day of William G. Sheppard of Col
l,ers' Weekly, in an address deliv-
cred before the $50 delegates to the
annual meeting Of the Association
Of National Advertisers, in session
here at the Traymore.
Mr.. Sheppard in the course of his
talk asked the pointed question;
Are there too many retailers?" and
declared that there were too many
retailers of an undesirable type and
not enough of the desired kind.
Advertising" he said, will help
the consumer establish real business
relations with the retailers. 1t will
help him or her to make the choice
between the retailer who Is really q
public functionary rather than a
bandit teaching IN the community
Advertising will teach the public
that one good store conducted by a
retailer who has, a sense of justice
is better than a half dozen duh
stories that only light up the side
walk at the consumers expense with
gaarish glare that doesn't mean
anything but a charge to all other
stores in the battle royal of retail
competition"
