Development of the, East Railwaysection, which ha* been occupyingthe attention of the common councilrecently, took a prominent place inthe affair* of the Board of Educa-tion Tuesday night when a proposi-tion to purchase a site therefor a n«w school, was takenup. Previous to the meeting a com-mittee had inspected various sites inthe district. The findings of thecommittee were discussed and thenthe matter was turned over to th,eboard as a committee of the wholeto inspect the sites on Wednesdayafternoon.

After the inspection on Wednes-day the matter was referred backto the committee for a report at thenext regular meeting. The board hasno definite plan but a propositionthat seemed to meet with favor Tues-day, night, i s to purchase a plot a-bout 200 feet square and erect afour-room building on it. The build-ing is to be used for the lowergrade pupils, as many parents arefearful Of sending small children bybus to the schools of the borough.The busts, according to this pro-posal, will be retained for the largerpupils.

At the inspection Wednesdaymuch of the time was taken up withdiscussion of the prices asked bythe owners of the property. As areason for purchasing a site imme-diately, it has been urged that prop-erty in the East Rahway district wilincrease in value rapidly and at thesame time build up to a degree thatwill make the erection of a schoolthere imperative.

At the opening of the meetingPresident Edward J. Heil made ashort address inasmuch a« the meet-ing was the first business meeting ofthe newly organized board. He saidthat arrangements had been made to

The general health andsanitation in the schools waa report-ed to be good.• Elmer E. Brown, attorney for the

board, presented an exhaustive opin-ion regarding the liability of theboard for street improvement assess-ments. Recently the borough pre-sented a bill assessing the board forsidewalks in Washington avenue infront of the high school. Mr. Brown,in his opinion, cited numerous cawsof record where courts had held thatboards of education and school prop-erty are not liable for such charges.

The attorney set forth in his opin-ion that while there was no statutedefinitely covering the point, thetrend of court decisions had beento relieve schools of liability.

Roosevelt Post No. 28, AmericanLegion, requested the co-operation ofthe schools in the Memorial Day pro-gram. The matter was referred tothe supervising principal. A com-munication from the Lions Club re-garding the teaching! of Germanlanguage in the schools, was referredto the teachers' committee,

A telephone call for the fire de-partment was sent in but there wassome delay in getting the number,'When the pumper arrived a streamquickly put out the fire. The flameswere eating through the frameworkof a door leading into the storewhen the firemen arrived. The dam-age is roughly estimated at about'$500.

Nothing definite is known as to the'cause of the blaze but it is thoughtthat .boys playing with matches in therear of the store, may have been re-sponsible.

A still alarm at 7.45 o'clock Wed-nesday night brought Engine No. 2to the home of Fred Solton in Emer-son street where a fire had beenstarted by an over-heated furnacepipe. It was necessary to cut away abeam that hud caught fire. A baseboard in the first floor was slightlyscorched. The damage was small.

All of the territory concerned inthe plan to date, lies on the norther-ly side off Roosevelt avenue, aTheproperty on the southerly side, or,at least, the greater portion of it,belongs to the Canda Realty Com-pany.

Russell L. Miles, agent for theCanda interests, was present at themeeting and said that he would in-form his company of the proposedplan. He would noon be in a posi-tion to inform the council, he said,whether the Canda Company wouldjoin in the sewer movement or not.

MR. COUGHUN SCORES

In proposing to the Board of Education that that body^btain the aervicea of a qualified coach with proper credentials,and pay the salary that such ability commands in the openmarket, Commissioner Coughlin, we think, is taking a mostworthy action. The value of a capable coach is recognized byevery educator worthy of the name. The students who areguided by their coach to a fair share of success in athleticcompetition get what might be called "success complex" thatis of the utmost value in after1 life.

They get to a point where they expect success and arewilling to make the effort that will bring it. That is prettygood education. There is also a reaction in regard to studies.Effort is required to make the teams. The boys must studyto get the letters. If the team is a successful one there is thatmuch more incentive to study hard enough to get into the

lineup.Athletics are very important but there are ai»o other

things equally important. The ideal action for the board totake would be to employ a coach who is also a capable play-ground instructor and supervisor. Much research has beenmade recently in connection with the so-called crime waveAnd the most outstanding discovery of all this research workis that where there are plenty of playgrounds properly super-vised, very few of the boys grow up to be criminals or de-generates, while, on the other hand, the communities that haveno playgrounds appear to turn out an astonishingly largenumber of boys who grow up to be enemies of society, and ofgirls who are not always prudent in conduct.

This matter deserves the careful consideration of theboard and the public. We have no other interest or possessionso valuable and important as the youth of the community. Itis our duty to give them every advantage.

WHY GROW OLD?

The rejuvenation studies of Professor Steinach in Viennaseem likely to upset all calculations of actuaries and econ-omists, declares, the American Monthly in an article entitled"Why Not Live 800 Years?"

If the experiments on a large scale verify the conclusionsreached by Steinach and his fellow-students, no life insurancepolicy of the future will be written without making rejuvena-tion obligatory. Dr. Peter Schmidt, of Berlin, suggests thatthe restimulation of the age gland should h* made obliga-tory for the old, as vaccination is compulsory for children.

Dr. Harry Benjamin, of New York, in a medical report on123 American patients treated by him, Bhows, marked bene-fits in 77 per cent, of the cases. General vitality was raised, hesays, and various symptoms of age, such as hardening of thearteries and high blood pressure, were retarded. Dr. Ben-jamin criticises the "medical pirates" who have discreditedSteinach's work by sensationalizing and commercializing it.

BUSINESS METHODS

The Federal Trade Commission has stepped its big footon some more questionable trade practices.\ In one instancea concern manufactured shawls, and labeled them "woolrobes*' and "wool shawls". But inasmuch as the goods werenot composed wholly of wool the Trade Commission said thatthat word must not be used. '

Another company, acting as jobbers inithe sale and dis-tribution of candy, hung out its advertising JRS "makers," andthey had to pull down the word "makers".. I

In another case the manufacturer of a; cigar labeled hisweed with the word "Havana," although his tobacco hadn'tbeen within a thousand miles of Cuba. Hs had to quit, too.

A "direct from the factory to you" concern that boughtits goods in the open market and tried to make the public be-lieve that it was cutting out all the middlemen was givento understand that its business was misleading and deceptive.The Trade Commission tied a can on them, too.

Too Much of Santa Clatis, and Too LittleJesua, in Christmas Spirit Today

By DR. NATHANIEL SCHMIDT, Cornell University.

At a celebration of the birth of Jesus, Christmas seems to be grad-ually disappearing. The name is indeed more popular than ever, but thehero whose advent is celebrated is no longer th« Jewish prophet It USanta Claua.

\V hat ever the evidence regarding the existence of Jems there can beBO question as to the tremendoiu challenge the spirit associated with Hitnaffie presents to the order that prevaik in the world today.

In view of the devastating wars between nations and sinister prep-arations for still more terrible wars, a social system that allows multi-tudes of meii to perish in misery and starvation while enormous wealthii concentrated in private handB, and a deadening formalism and sec-tarianism iu religion, there is need of a prophetic voice that humanitywill recogni/e as coming from its inmost self.

Wait 'Till He DevelopsGeorge Kojac, the 17-year old Brooklyn

schoolboy who may enter Rutgers, defeatedJohnny Weismuller at Chicago in theTSo-yard backstroke national A. A. U. champion-ship last week. Although still below the agewhen he may be expected to develop his bestform Kojac ia rated within the elite coterie ofthe six or seven greatest swimmers in theworld. If he enters Rutgers,—arid he says hewill—he will have the further advantage ofbeing taught by Jim Reilley, former world'shampion and one of the greatest of all time.

Reilley should be able to bring the youngsteralong 80 that by the time he has a year or twoof intercollegiate Bwimming under his belt hewill clean up in all the sprints.

Kajac's victory over Weismuller cannotbe minimized. Weismuller is as great as everhe, was and aside from the event he lost to theBrooklyn youth he made a cjean sweep of theraces for national championship, lowering theworld's record by four seconds in the 500yard free style swim.

It is important for you to keep that doorway wide open by having,enough telephone lines, thus continually inviting the entrance ofnew customers and old. ,

"Unsblt to glT* joiiMon—Imit h«*rtags taken tore* days RKO — we'relost!"

Thus reads th* terse hut dramaticm«ssag* from a ship in distress. OutIn th* blacknoas ot the night, pitchingand tossing on wares utirred to afreniy by the wintry fale, are fellowmariners and passengers, far oft thetraveled ocean lan*s and til but lost•are (or the slender thread of radiocommunication.

"Keep sending us test signals,"flashes back our Operator. "Will lo-cate by direction Under." And so thelatest wonder of marine radio and thenewest aid to modern navigation Isbrought Into play.

Soon our operator Is at the radiodirection finder In the pilot house. Amoment later he Is wearing the head-phones and manipulating the fecelrerdials. He begloa turning the hand-wheel, which serres to swing tbe smallloop tram* on the deck above Into thererr teeth of t ie angry gale. Tbeoperator listens Intently; the captainand other silently stand nearby; theswings of the bJMkd-wheel become short-er and Shorter. Here it la—the line

, of signals—th* direction of their pas-sage through space from the radiatingpoint! But on which side of our ship—In what senseT Now the operatorthrows a switch, swings the hand-wheel again. The swings becomeshorter until they virtually stop. Theoperator now bends down as he peersthrough a magnifying glass, squintingan eye so aj to line up the parallaxlines which wilt glv» an accurate read-Ing from the compass card below. Thenha gives the reading to the pilot of th*ship. A few moments later the course|s chanced,.and the ahip throbs to thecommand of full speed ahead in th*tec* of a heavy sea.
