French Marshal Rebukes Attsndant
Who Says He Hasn’t Time to
Assist the Sightless One.
By JONATHAN BRACE
Paris.—“Excuse m e; am I near the
Wounded Soldiers' institute?” asked
a blind veteran of a passing pedes
trian as he tapped his way along the
sidewalk. “I've been there ouly twice
and I’m not quite sure of the way.”
“You are close to it-now; let me
take you,” came the reply.
Arriving at the door the guide said
to the Janitor: “Kindly take this man
to tiie section for the blind.”
"Take him yourself,” growled the
janitor. “Under the archway on the
other side of the courtyard.”
The civilian did so, hut on the way
out addressed the janitor again
“Couldn’t you he a little more oblig
ing to the blind?” he asked gently.
“There are too many and I haven't
the time.” was the response.
“It seems to me It is your duty to
belli them,” said the other. “I cun find
time.”
The man was Marshal Foch.

Is that what you say when paying
a bill? Or do you simply "go thru
your pockets" In an effort to scare
up the necessary amount? .
The man who saves and banks his
savings with us never has to dig
down into every pocket in order to
pay a bill.
He simply writes out a check, and
the money is always in the bank
to meet it.
Have you an account with us?
Why not start it without further
delay?

th e
French "verts
monts,”
o r
green moun
tains,' and It was likewise the
French who were probably the
first white men to see those lofty
landmarks which so appropri
ately give this state Its name.
Tilts was in July, 1609, when
Chantpluln made his memorable
voyage up the lake now culled
after him.
The first permanent settle
ment was made In 1724 at Brat
tleboro, where the Massachusetts
colony established a fort as a
buffer against Invasion from the
north. The territory used was
part of what was known as the
“Equivalent Lauds," which were
sold at public auction In Hart
ford for about a farthing an
acre, the proceeds being donated
to Yale college. Shortly after
this, settlers pushed eastward
from New York across Lake
Champlain and westward from
New Hampshire. This led to dis
putes between these two colo
nies as to their boundaries. Un
der the leadership of Ethan Al
len New York’s claims were re
sisted by a local mlUltrry force,
which proudly called themselves
"the Green Mountain Boys.” It
was these same men who played
such a brilliant part during the
Revolution.
In 1777 a formal Constitution
for the state was adopted and
Vermonters are proud of the fact
that theirs was the first of the
states to prohibit slavery by
constitutional provision. For a
number of years Vermont re
mained us a separate republic,
Rut In 1791 it was admitted to
the Union as the first addition to
the original thirteen states.
In size Vermont has 9,564
squnre miles, and Its congres
sional delegation numbers four.
It thus casts four votes for the
president.

still in the tree trunks awaiting the
magic wand of industry to give them

these homes were destroyed as surely
as though the trees had been made
into lumber and the lumber into

happened:
"It was the vacation season and an
automobile carrying a party of tour

through a magnlfictcut stand of
Douglas fir, in Western Washington.
The travelers sat in rapturous ad
miration of the quiet forest scene and
rhapsodized over the great trees that
columned their majestic beauty as
far as the eye could see. One of the
men of the party lit a contemplativa

the side of he road.

gangs of men at work. They were
combating that most terrifying, most
ungovernable and dangerous of all
rebcliou8 elements— the forest fire.
For a day and a night and another
day the battle waged. Grimy men,
black as the charred trunks around
them, worn to the last stages of ex
haustion, fought on—cutting away
underbrush, dynamiting logs and
trees, beating out the slinking fring
of advancing ground fire, shouting
one to another above the crackling
inferno of heat and smoke, panting
like hunted animals around the wat
er barrels where they elaked their
thirst with the luke-warm liquid, but
gaining, almost imperceptible at
first, yet gradually with greater cer
tainly as the weary hours dragged
on. And amid the confusion and the
crash of falling timber the ranger
and his foreman generalied the bat
tle.
"Several days later a large barren
scar lay upon the mountainside, still
smouldering in places where the
black splinters of the charred stumps
pointed like accusing fingers, and
still sent out masses of yellowish
white smoke. The scar covered hund
reds of acres and- it would continue
to smoulder and smoke for weeks,
