Well, one of th^makers, who yet luulsts that her part is only a minorone, is named Julia Chapman. It'athe spirit she's put Into her two Jobsrather than the size of her bank ac-count that you find yourself InterestedIn. For she sells tickets in the rail-road station and Insurance and loanson those white Orlando houses. Thosesound like unexciting occupations tocarry on In the home town, don'tthey? Unlikely to bring success orfame or even contentment?'

Miss Chapman developed the habitof doing the little things to the bestof tier ability. As just one result, theeanl of her insurance company nowcurries In the upper eight-hand cornet,"Julia K. Chapman, Sec. aud Treas."

Orlando, a village when little Juliallhapnmc, twelve years old, was orpham-d. as u winter resort now attracts thousands of tourists. Mta»Chapman sees In her ticket office worknut u monotonous, hateful Job, but »chance to help all who eater the of-fice ; un opportunity to take especialcare of the great number of the whilehaired who come homing' sunshine towarm old boiifs or to cure- feep-s*atedold-UK*' diseases.

Slit? must have tnude a pleasantuH'iuury in the minds of many of «UeIO,(KK) who annually pass her window.Fur alii' has discovered Uiat ail overthe United States have spread storiesof Hie rlliiiency of her office.

Tlif war crystallized this reputa-tion. 1'n"le Sam, through the railroadadministration, lifi l;nned a lean ttnge'rit Julia Cliu]iiiiiui and said, "I needyou." A th'kci sellers' »t:uool foryoung women wus established at At-lanta. Miss clmpnmn trained the girlsto help win Ihe war by selling rail-road tickets—not just any way, butJulia Chapman's wiiy-.

Whatever success and recognitionhtive come, the feels, are based on thefact that "\ have made ijood in thetown I've lived in sine* I was nineyears old. A young woman In a Flor-ida town bus great advantages shecould not find in u strange city. Hereshe can grow and expand as the towndo«s.".

I HAVE always been convinced thatIf Tom Sawyer had had more than

nno fence to whitewash he might havehad ronalderabie trouble In gettingthe neighbor boys to take the Job offhi* hands. It waa the novelty of thethlnr that dec«lT«d them. Later theywould hare awakened to the fact thatIt was real work they were up against,and Tom weald hare been compelledto take a little exerdae himeelf.

"It'a all right when It'a new," one otmy pewimlttiC neighbors said to maas, passing through the yard on' morn-ing, he caught me polishing up Tam,"but Just wait a while."

He was quite right Conditionshare changed now; Tarn's body is atrifle duller from contact with the ele-ments, the process of keeping himclean has grown commonplace andarduous.'

ANOTHER "DOPE" STORY. »There norms to be nn impression aViong certain Repub-

licans thai, there is no place for truth in a political campaign.The local organization bearing that party denomination, makesno bones about injecting politics into the coming achool election.They come right out in print with plans to place their candi-dates on the board although those candidate* have not as yetbeen chosen. Just so long as men can be found who will permittheir names to be used on the machine ticket the ring will workfor them and try, by hook or crook, to have them elected. Thatia a sad comment'on the attitude they hold toward the educa-tion and the future of Carteret Children.

In Xlocal paper lust week was a stqry attributed to EdwardWilgus, a former Republican councilman, in which Wilgus isquoted as saying that the Board of Education refused to takeaction on a petition to have a second polling place opened forthe school election. So far as literal fact is concerned theBoard did not act but so far as honest intention is concerned

.. the statement is as far from truth as the South pole is .fromthe North.

The petition was filed with the clerk, and the clerk said it* was all right. Wilgus heard that for he was in the room, or

At the door, at the time. Now all that is necessary is to file thepetition with the clerk. It automatically goes into effect and isgranted without action of the board. The law so provides.

When someone applies to the borough clerk for a doglifcenge, the borough council does not have to act on the matter—the clerk grants the license. And it is the same with theapplication for the opening of another polling place; the filing

;: of a proper petition with the clerk is all that is necessary.

' , - The purpose of the story, of course, was to create sentimentftgainstithe present board. The fact that the board had doneItfl duty in every respect, evidently did not enter into the matter j

/ so far as those who circulate such stories are concerned.As a matter of fact it was the Board of Education, or mem-

the paper and it will be a safe course for you in buying.The out-of-town advertiser who depends on the daily in his

own town to reach the people in the suburbs, is himself a foolto a great extent. He is separated from his money by the emptyboasta of the daily that it "covers" the suburbs. There is not adaily printed that "covers," that is, circulates, in suburban terri-tory to any extent comparable with the weekly of that territory.Nor are the dailies read in suburban territory with any degreeof the thoroughness and confidence given the weekly.

But another important point, one for the suburban pur-chaser to keep in mind is, that the out-of-town advertiser whoseeks your trade through circulars or "ads." in the daily in hisown town, is not giving anything in return. He wants suburbanuade but keep his trade in his own town by advertising in histown daily and ignoring the weekly in the suburb where youlive. Is it fair to give him your trade?

YOUR PAPER.

What is your favorite paper? Always the local paper.In towns where there are two papers of opposing political views,yoU naturally favor the paper that coincides with your partyaffiliations and perhaps you are a little bit sore at the otherfheet. Very likely in this case, you read both of 'em to seewhat they have to say. But at all events you favor a hometown paper.

You ought to favor your home town paper. It is the com-mon meeting ground for public opinion in your little part of theWorld. It is intimate, a oflrt of the household. It carries rec-ords of your friends and acquaintances and what they are doing.It records the passing of old friends who have been called to

^ answer the last summons; it tells when the wedding bells an-V-' nounce the establishment of a new home. In a word, it-is the

•ne bit of printed history that deals entirely and exclusivelywith the people and events with which you are most familiarand in which you are most interested.

The fellows who get out the local paper work early andlate to collect the news of your community; they try to get i tacross as accurately as possible. They put a touch of kindnessinto their writing. They are boosters.

How much do you do in turn.to help the local paper? Therefr-one way that you Can help it effectively and only one way.

i That is to patronize as far as possible those who advertise in it.; „ The advertisers support the paper—any paper.

Your paper is a local institution; you have faith in it andyou believe what you read in its news columns. Unconsciously

[your mind places the same confidence in what you read in its" advertising columns.

Most honest advertisers know this; they study advertisinga science. They have worthy goods and are not afraid to

|ftand squarely behind what they proclaim in their advertise-

ENCOURAGING INCENDIARISM.In a western State two convicted and confessed fire-bugs

have just been released on parole without seeing a day in prison,after receiving a sentence of eight years each.

They were the owners and managers of a restaurant andconspired to commit a gross fraud on their creditors and theinsurance companies. The sentence of the judge and jurywas not too severe.

In the easy-going way in which justice is being adminis-tered, where the property and lives of others were endangered,the judge on the bench and the jury joined in extenuating pleasfor the release of the fire-bugs.

It instated upon high authority by one of the most promi-nent officials in this western State that 50 per cent, of the fireslast year were incendiary and that the property consumed inflame and smoke, thereby, totaled $5,000,000.00.

In the measure of criminality, deliberate incendiarismranks with criminal assault, kidnapping and murder.

In addition to causing loss of life to citizens and fire fight-ers, firebug criminals generally aim to secure funds with whichto carry on further operations.

As a matter of record, men, women and childrensconstantlylose their lives in blazes lighted by firebugs, The men in thiscase confessed to the crime of arson, to touching a match to oil-soaked materials.

Liberating firebugs imperils lives and financial interestsof property ownera whose insurance rates are higher on accountof leniency to confessed criminals.

Such a phony sentence as ordering two confessed criminalsto the penitentiary for eight years each and immediately pa-roling them brings our courts into marked disrespect.

This is a sensible idea. Nine out of every ten churches arein debt, and principally due to large building costs. If everychurch building investment could be a revenue-producing one,then more people would go to church, and more effective religi-ous work could be accomplished.

IN LINE WITH THE SPORTSMENBenny Leonard and Jack Dempaey, satisfied that they nave

o teal rivals yy-the weight divisions of which they are cham-ions, have decided to retire from the ring. ,Two suchjabdica-ions of million dollar thrones by such astute business men as'Benneh" and Jack within a week constitute! exceptiontl news.

It is strongly suspected that both Jack and Benny have>assed the peak of their fighting effectiveness—and are wise

enough to know it. If so they are to be commended for theiractions in stepping out of the picture as undefeated champions.

Of course there is a great defcl of disappointment on thepart of fans who had hoped to see a Leonard-Walker and aDempsey-Wills battle. Some wtll assume, oJ pretend to assumethat Leonard was frightened out of the fight game by thethought of having to meet the tough welterweight, Walker,and that Dempaey is afraid of Harry Wills. •; However, there isnothing in the records of either %t tttfefri to Wke such assump-tions plausible. Leonard has been a skilled and courageousfighter, taking them all as they came and beating them. Like-wise, Dempsey has been anything but timid, for if he had hewould neVer have crawled through the ropes and beaten Firpoafter the giant of the Argentine had knocked him from thering.

A new and important industry hascome to Woodbndge, in the Keaabeysection 'of the township. It is strictlyproper to call it important for it ismportant at present even though it

in a sense in the experimentalstage. In time there is every reasonto believe that it may be regardedas one of the most important indus-tries of Woodbridge and Perth Am-boy, for it interests Perth Amboy too,being near the line of that city.

This new concern is the "NavicoalCorporation," and it makes coal—real' good coal that gives plenty ofheat, no smoke, no clinkers and onlya nominal amount of aeh. But hereis the important part: this coal re-tails "at $9.50 per ton if you go afterit at the plant. Delivered in PerthAmboy, Fords and Keasbey, it costs$11 per ton; delivered in Woodbridgepropert Sewaren, Metuchen and SouthAmboy, it costs $,11.50 per net ton.Half ton lots are %tt cents extra.Later arrangements will be made fordelhrery in Carteret, and perhaps,Rahway.

- The plant is big with lots of tallTjuildings, elevated tracks. There aretanks and there are spouts and chutes.The finished product, ready for use, isjust a little larger than chestnut coal.It stands all finds of weather, ex-posure to water, heat or other ele-mental force haa.no effect whateverupon it, is the claim, It is intendedto burn in any kind of grate whereother ordinary coal burns—and itsmakers claim that it burns better,gives more heat, lasts as long orlonger without waste-or dirt.

The proprietors already have alusty business to attend to but theysee much greater growth in the'fu-ture—millions of tons of raw mate-rial brought in barges. They predicta day when the Navicoal plant willmore _than double the present ton-nape on Raritan bay and river. Theplant is near the brick and tile workson Raritan river and is reached bya road leading off Smith street.

passage.A bill offered by Senator Harrison,

Issex, would give banks and trustompaples the right to establishranch offices with the consent of thetate department of Banking. Stockrakers would be compelled to obtaintate licenses according to a hill In-oduced by Senator Woodruff, Cam-

len. The-licenses, the bill provides,ould be Issued on the approval of

Mackhy, Hudson, which authorizesthe Port Authority to build a bridgecross the Hudson from Manhattan toort Lee, with an appropriation of150,000 for borings and engineeringilans, was reported favorably out ofhe Highways Committee.

An Assembly measure, known as(he Bible Bill, which authorises theeading of the New Testament in thepublic schools of the State, waB re-Introduced by ABsemblyman Bruno ofMonmouth. The bill, introduced last'ear by Kenworthy of Essex, was de-leated. The fight on the measurewas beaded by Harrison of Essex anaRichards of Atlantic.

Majority Leader ChandlesB, Bergen,Introduced a joint resolution provid-ing for an Investigation of" workingconditions for women In the State.About 100 other bills were introduced.

8lmp«on't Repeiler DiscussedOf course nobody expects the Re-

publican Legislature to give seriousconsideration to Senator Simpson'sbill, Introduced at the opening ses-sion, repealing the State dry enforce-ment law, The Senator himself, lead-er of the tiny minority* of three Inthu Senate, has no hope that It willeven emerge from committee, but heilues believe that it represents

of, a decided majority of thepeople of the Static as expressed atlie polls upon divers occasions and

that It will place thtt Republicans rjlirecord for the coming campaign forGovernor. Perhapu that is the under-lying purpose of the, measure, but if Itwus the majority will be obliged toshow KB hand.

That, to be sura, will bring the IB-

In llin thoughtful consideration ofIhf niitlnok (he party leader* will b»forced lo the conclusion that thevoters of the State will not Btand fora randldate backed by the Antl-Salnnn league, but in a daz« as towhat tn do without the support ofthe dry vote others will probably ex-ert such Influence to prevent the nom-ination of a more liberal candidateUnited States Senator Edge had nohesitation In standing unequivocallyand bluntly for modification in hiscampaign for re-election, and his ma-jority was more than 380,000 In acontest with Mayor Donnelly, Demo-crat, who was jiist as openly, andprobably a bit Stronger, for the moistside of the controversy.

With that result standing out BOclearly and conspicuously the Repub-licans will have some difficulty incomposing their differences upon theImportant question and. the legisla-tive session will undoubtedly give Itemphasis. The Simpson hill, there-fore, may not see daylight, but theSenator will be In position to keep itbefore the people to the very end.

As had been expected, GovernorRilaer opened the way for further dls-ririfilon of the tax reduction problemIn hiV annual message to the Legisla-ture, hot nothing Is likely to come ofIt. The GoVernnr offered no new formof solution, bin referred back to hisplan of having tile State Boa/d ofTaxation and Assftisment clothedwith power to revlewXcounty andmunicipal bond issues aft4 annualbudgets. That power, It was then ar-gued, might result In healthy reduc-tions of debts and, per sequence";taxes. It waa a bit too much, how-ever, for the lawmakers, who heardfrom the municipal bodies, and noth-ing' ever came of It.

It was evident from the tenor ofhis message that the Governor enter-tained no false fancies with respectto his plan, bat referred to It merelyas a suggestion .to which the peoplemight turn If they felt there was anypossibility of lighter tax burdens.

Renew Bobolink Protection FightWith the convening of the Legisla-

ture comes the announcement fromthe headquarters of the New JerseyAudubon Sooiety In Newark that thefight for right and justice In behalfof the bobolink, or reed bird, and Itsbeneficiaries Is to- be renewed .withvigor. It was In the session of 1915that the society first launched itscampaign' to correct what It de-scribes as. a cruel and economic anom-.aly In the New Jersey laws, wherebythe bobolink Is designated as a gamebird,, although pre-eminently a songand insectivorous bird with no gameyqualification. Since that time, withthe exception of the. brief periodwhen the regulations of the FederalMigratory Bird Law protected thebobolink In New Jersey, and theequally brief protection of the 1921Audubon Law, repealed the following'ear, the society has fought the bat-:le for the bobolink continuously to:he limit t>f Us resources.

The society declares that propa-ganda against bobolink protectionrests entirety on misrepresentation.Quoting from United StateB Depart-ment of Agriculture experts, It showsthat in the five months the bird Is tobe found in New Jersew insects forman average of 6ZJ per cent, vegetablematter (chiefly weed seed) 42.9 perent of its food. In May and July In-

sects form 80 per cent and In June BOper cent, falling off rapidly throughAugust and reaching a minimum InSeptember. In August, however, thefood Is from 65 to 70 per cent weedseed, and from the first of Septemberthis increases rapidly to nearly 100per cent.

$18,705,522 In' Governor** BudgetExpenditures of $14,705,522 were

recommended by Governor Sllier Inhis budget message. This Is an in-crease of $1,170,924 over the corre-sponding appropriation of last year,though $3,864,052 less than the • re-quests received by the Governor fromvarious State departments and insti-tutions.

Of the total recommended $14,S13,-000 will be appropriated from generalState funds, the balance being repre-sented by appropriations from scbojplfunds, fees of the motor vehicle de-partment, fish and game receipts andpther sources of Income reappr'oprt-ated on the basin of amounts col-lected.

Governor Sllzer) (again protested ,against the practice5 of providing for jautomatic increases of salaries as aJ

stumbling block to (he conservationof 8tate Funds. He said he feltobliged to reduce the application forlegislative employees In the hope thatthat body would see the wisdom ofabolishing "the deplorable custom ofspending State funds for politicalfavors."

Of the appropriation recommended$6,437,770 would go to State lnatltu-tions and agencies; $4,437,854 to edu-cational purposes; $2,613,321 to regu-lative branches of the government:$1,501,682 to executive and adminis-trative branches; $802,090 to Judicialbranches; $829,739 for military pur-poses; $729,946 to agriculture; $S00,-000 to special funds; $25S,826 to pen-dlon and retirement funds; $103,341for legislative expenaes; $276,000 forconstructive purposes, and thu bal-ance for variouB general K<>vurjiint>n-tal needs.

THE NEW OPERETTA.

("Th» I.ov« Song" Hi th* Centurywith nil »H aUr e»at. Thia ia the life•lory of Jtequea OPFunrmch, eotnpoaer,and th« mualc ia haa«d ypon hla moat'famoua melodiea. Produced by fth*Maatn. Shub«rl.)

There are three outstanding im-pressions left on us by the reviewing•of "The Love Song.'1 One is thatOdette Myrtil really did, after all,deserve that long term contract•ward her hy the Shuberts.Odetto'l French accent minrtunthe rather quiet dialogue of"Vogues," last leason and did notimpres* us favorably at all. But inthe Century Operetta, she is mostwelcome and her r-r-r-ollings ofr-r-r'i (ret over one hundred per cent.better and not because the acousticsof the Century are poor, either. She1s a comedienne, this time, and ascomedienne she Is a comedienne,which is a whole lot more than youcan gay of several thousand otheryoung ladies who decorate the getsof musical production!!.

The second hip; impression was thiact that the melodies of "The LovSong" are some of the most tunefulheard hereabouts in years. Of coursetheir close relationship to Offenbach'scompositions naturally lift themabove the usual run of popular tunes.Sigmund Romberg, the composer, has,nevertheless, done an admirable job,

The third impression wag that evethe four prima donnas and wholearmy of less important players anthe endless costumes, and the tonaon tons of magnificent scenery, atheje together hardly reached thihigh standard of beauty, emotion antrich elegance set by "The StudentPrince," the other Shubert operettacurrent at the Jolson.

That any show will reach the su-preme heights of "The StudentPrince is, doubtful,- BO "The LoveSong" \s not to be cast aside merelyon that statement, for it is a tre-mendous production with splendidsinging and carries an excellent story.

The Century Theater, unfortunate-ly, although large in capacity is "amonument to the stupidity of thearchitect." A fortune has been sunkin its erection and perhaps an equalamount to improve it. An heavilydecorated proscenium, wide aisles andhundreds of smaller features thatmake the theater a delight to the eyeare completely at a loss when theactors cannot be heard and even somusical a production BB "The LoveSong" is distinctly at disadvantagewhen the action cannot be seen at aijtfrom any scat back of the sixteenth

TOW.The Shuberts should bring "The

Student Prince" and "The liove Song"downtown to two adjoining theatersso that patrons of the first might im-mediately buy tickets for the Offen-bach thing for the following evening.That's what you'll want to do.

"Candida" is one of those delicate,philosophical affairs that Shaw has acomplex for. It is portrayed by agroup of artists whose skill ranka sec-ond to nope in the world. It is givena detailed production, well executed.

"Candida's" havoc wreaking withthe quiet loves of clergymen, is moreto be taken as a study in cause andeffect, than as a theater entertain-ment, however. Mr. Shaw's brilliantarguments in which he is on bothFides, will, no doubt thrill the studentdramatists, dramatists, the few edu-cated producers and the remainder ofthe intelligentsia.

Then, after they have returned totheir lamentations over the closing of

; "The Miracle," will come the would-fce .intelligentsia who, stifling yawns,will pretend to be tremendously im-pressed and rave throughout thetwenty-five block walk home.

.Then "Candida" will close. Be-cause the man seeking entertainmentwill probably favor the sizzling dia-logue of "White Cargo" to Shaw'sultra-culture and the scintillatingdash of "Lady, Be Good" to the in-tellectual gluom surrounding theskilled Bernard and his work.

WE WENT TO CORT.("Carnival," with Elsie Fergiuon,

presented by Charlea Frohman at theCort Theater.)

There is one thing in "Carnival"which is most unusual. All the malemembers of the cast look exactlyalike. The reason, of course, is be-cause they have all been cant fortheir "type." TJwy are gentlemen ofthe aristocracy (of the Continent)and, as such, are fairly impressive.

This Perenc Molnar play is de-cidedly fuggy. Mojnar has an Idea inH, perhaps several, but he decidedto keep UK all in the dark about it,It's a secret. Camilla Crojizy was fttnost mysterious) woman. It see mashe was human although she didn'tact it, and the finding of the Orloffdiamond which had fallen from thecrown of a princeas and Camilla'sresultant plan to keep it bloke downthe barriers separating her and herpassionate lover, Nicholas (splendidlyplayed by Tom Nesbitt). They planto flee and live an exiled existence.But Nick's contention that Cumillaloves the diamond, and not he, andhis insisting that she give it back,breaks the epell, and the love affairnever culminates.

There are times when this playtouthes spots dangerously near theheart and also moments of greatdramatic power but the general fud-dled outlook and inexplicable tormentof Camilla over nothing at all, rathertitand in the way of Camilla's smashing puccess. Arid that, even throughMiss Ferguson actually t;rte» salt tearsin the U*t act.

Organized to serve the people of New

Jersey in every branch of domestic and

foreign banking and in all matters of

trust such as wills, estates and so forth,

the Fidelity Union Trust Company has

performed its duties so well and with

such faithfulness and true helpfulness

that patronage is coming to it in an ever-

increasing volume and it is now, as it has

long been, the largest institution of its

kind in the entire state.

Starting thirty-seven years ago with

but a few hundred thousand dollars in

assets it now has resources of eighty-

four million. Its deposits in the first year

were flattering, but not large; today they

amount to over seventy-three million, as

shown in the accompanying statement.

When the. company started business it

began with $250,000. Its capital, sur-

plus and undivided profits are now morethan ten million dollars.

There is, of course, a reason for thephenomenal growth that is reflected inthese almost bewildering figures. Thegains shown in our statement are notthe result of luck. , They are due tosound, progressive, far-seeing manage-ment, to true helpfulness in all our deal-ings with our customers, and in theperformance of our duties, to a con-scientiousness that puts the protectionand advancement of the interests of ourpatrons above all other considerations.

™ any of our departments you andyour friends will always find a mostcordial welcome, and if in any way Wecan possibly serve you it will be ourpleasure tQ. do so; Meanwhile, to yguand to the public in general, we extendour best wishes for

Do those who pass over a filmproduction with critical lightness everpause for an intensive sight into theartistic-endeavor put into a movingpicture production? Staging a: thea-tre production is simple in compari-son. In the theatre much,of thesmoothing is done after the play islaunched. A moving picture must bepolished to perfection before it isreleased. Once it is revealed to thepublic it cannot be altered.

Films require greater all-roundperfection of detail than spokenplays. There arp more responsibili-ties in which failure of a single fac-tor results in a failure of the pro-duction. Direction, acting, story,photography, setting, titling, cuttingof the filmed negative, each in itselfvital. These must co-ordinate to

1 make a perfect composition.' But a stage play can be carried to |

success on the shoulderi of a single jactor. And that actor, or actress'success can spring from mannerismsor theatrical tricks. Mannerisms aref«tal to a film star—that is, a starwho really attempts to attain theartistic in film acting. The fate of acertain star of great renown is proofof this.

To compare the cinema to the stageis unfair. One would not think ofmatching the student againBt histeacher, or the child's mental capac-ity against its father's. Nor are themethods of stage and screen exactlyanalogous. The screen methods arenearer those of the painter or thecomposer of symphony. A film is a

jniass of .detail which must be shaped1 under the mastery of the director.

The director is a responsibly head,the guiding iriad. But the compo-nent parts of a production aro to-tally in the trust of various staffmembers who are »O|>[>o.s<'<l to putthe icims of the director into effect.Failure to'do so may ruin the produc-tion. The architect must dunign hissets to conform to the director's idea*of the angles from which the scenesshould be shot. It ts nut sufficientthat he should merely follow the

| scenario directions, or creute beauti-ful structures. The cumerttnmn mustlight his sets so thut the tiling thedirector seeks to atreh.s will bebrought out in the photography.Even the playcrj look to tin- directorfor their iiiteriyetation, for theyseek the best way of putting a<ros»the dramatic effect the iliu-rlur hu»in mind.'
