Pnbluber. RANDOLPH CENTER skating, skiing, snowshoeing. tobogganing, bob-sledding, we probably shouldn't lack for winter sport enthusiasts in Vermont. But apparently just because winter sports in Vermont cost nothing but time and energy, there is a woeful lack of participation in them. It's a downright shame that we can't wake pp and appreciate what our Vermont winters can be made to mean for us.

The Fish and Game League. It is interesting to read that the old Vermont Fish and Galne league, once an organization of commanding im portariee, has been revived. The first thought that will flash into many minds is that here is a political instrumentality being brought back in life. This The Messenger doubts very much. The truth of the matter is that years ago the league was not so much in politics as politicians were in the league.

And when one talks about politicians in Vermont one covers a pretty large field. The word applies to most men who arc at all active outside the narrow eoufines of thair own business or profession. We manufacture politicians in this state by the score biennially. Every legislature brings a new crop because of the rotation system that obtains in the towns in the matter of sending representatives to the general assembly. Once a man has been inoculated and it has taken, he is fixed for life.

So we have thousands of politicians.

The new organization can be of service for the sporting interests, and if it also serves as a clearing house, so much the better. No one need have any fear of its extra-organic activity. Any organization that brings Vermonters together from all sections of the state is bound to lie beneficial. iSo many conflicting interests are bound to be represontetd that it. can not be used as the tool of any designing man or men.

Safety is in the very diversity of men aud minds. Such an organization is certain to be a cross section of the electorate, and if a man canfpass muster with its membership, it is more than likely he can pass muster with the voters. The Messenger hopes the revived Fish and Game League will become a substantial organization working for the ends which concern it from its very nature. To it men interested in the wild life of the state should belong and give their support. No one need fear political activity in any wrong sense, for, as has been pointed out, if it is a generally belong-to association its very diversity of membership furnishes it with a safeguard.

Rightin everyway WHITE RIVER JUNCTION DEVELOPING INITIATIVE. The money being expended by the Vermont State Bankers' association in offering prizes to the boys and of Vermont for success, in raising garden products and animals has been well spent if one were to judge "by the total products coming from those efforts and the net profits to the young people.

The addition of prizes for excellence and quantity in maple sugar production is likely to increase the value of the State Bankers' contribution to the industry of Vermont. Comparatively small amounts of money are contributed for these varied contests, but the returns in industry development and incentive to greater work are very large indeed. The State Bankers' association is to be commended for its efforts in inducing the young people of the state to take active interest in some of the industries of the state. It is one of the things which will tend toward that bigger and better Vermont, which we are all hoping for and which is bound to come through concerted effort.

Jl NINETY-FOURTH YEAR If Sold By The Frank Mcvhorter Co- A big over-harvest of ice in Rutland storehouses promises to bring the price down below the 50 cents a hundred charge of last year. Aside from the unusually good harvest, it is reasonable to expect that the price of ice would be cheaper this summer because the price of unskilled labor is cheaper and some of the materials used in connection with the collecting and storing of ice are to be secured at a reduction over last year. All those things contribute toward a reduction of prices of the ice to the lUJiiiituiiaiiauiiiiuntiiuuiiiiiniuiiutiii.iiui WIRE YOUR HOUSE The four act comedy drama, "Cran-berryv Corners," given by the Loyal club in Gates opera bouse Tuesday evening, was reported as being very successful. Everyone played their part exceptionally well, thus making it impossible to designate any one person as having exemplified their part better than any other person in the cast. The perfecting of the play is due to the conscientious efforts of Miss Mabel Hamilton.

Dr. Evelyn Slocum prompted during the play, owing to the illness of Miss Hamilton. Louis S. Newton of Hartford, who i doing architecture work in Burlington, came down and very kindly made up the cast. Fame's orchestra furnished the musical program.

The hall was well filled, and the advance' sale of tickets was said to have been the best ever. The members of the Loyal club feel very grateful to every one who helped make this surh a splendid success. This play will be given a repetition in the very near future, either here or in Woodstock.

The re-appointment of W. R. Bush as district highway commissioner assures Rutland county of the services of a first-class, progressive supervisor of roads, who, in addition, has spent hundreds of hours and dollars in services for which he could not expect fee or reward. "Bill" Bush has not been entirely popular with some town road commissioners, who felt they were being "pushed" a little, nor with certain contractors whose work he criticized or disallowed; he has probably played "poor polities'' so far as establishing a county "machine" goes, but most people believe that he has done the work, improved the roads and spent the public money to good advantage. In an effort to secure an early construction of the "Gateway" road from here to the state line at Fair Haven, Mr.

Bush not only co-operated with local committees but gave a great deal of personal effort, time and money to tlm project. That effort will not be lost; neither will his services be forgotten. Meanr while, the construction of the Gateway road stands as an unfulfilled obligation against the Hartness administration, as the people of this city and this count look at it. Rutland Herald.
