Jr. 0. U.A. Ms Present Bibles
and Flags to the Morris
Township Schools.
TWO INTERESTING EXERCISES

Yesterday was American Mechanics
Day in Morristown celebrated under
the auspices Of Vanatta Council 123,
Jr. @. q. A. M, and the Daughters Of
Liberty The special feature was the
presentation to the two new township
public schools of Bibles and flags.
The line OF march was taken Up
headed by the Morris Plains band from
the Farrelly building at two O'Clock.
First the procession went to the Hill
side school. The members of the town
ship board of education were there TO
meet the paraderS and the children
came out to the front of the building.
Elias DeGrc0t called the assemblage
to order and Rev. r. B. Urmy made
the opening prayer, after which DIR.
Erdman presented the large handsome
Bible which had been purchased for
the school. He said the order on the
program was proper as the Bible is the
foundation Of happiness and intelli-
gence and the Juniors honOred them
selves in connecting the Bible with the
flag. Our Fathers who fought for our
liberty carried the old musket and the
Bible and the two are intimately as
ISOLATED in the life of the country.
After rendering of America, Mayor
Reed was introduced. He said it was a
happy and auspicious occasion when
one can unfurl flag on a school house.
He was willing to subscribe to at least
one thing IN the constitution Of the
order that is protection OF ourselves
and country. The principles for which
the flag stands insnres to us protec-

Secretary Of State.

THE New York SUM- answers a
question in regard to the death OF a
candidate for president before he is
voted for by the electors as follows ~;
THE President and Vice-President
are not elected on election day. In
stead, the voters choose electors Of
President and Vice President, who
vote by ballot later for President and
Vice President. or course, no one can
tell what effect the death Of any cam
didate would have on the political sit
uation. The candidate of a successful
party has never died on the eve Of
election. ii one should die, means
would be found to ascertain the party's
choice for the vacant place, and the
man thus indicated would receive the
votes Of the party's electors
There is no legal obstacle to pre-
vent any eiector Of President and Vice
President from voting for candidate
other than those originally nominated
BY his parity Although the names
OF the presidential candidates were
placed upon the tickets the vote was
not official.

GOOD ADVICE TO
NERVOUS WOMEN

Just letme tell you what Rexall
Mucu-Tone did for me,'' says
Mrs. Hess, Of Jersey City, N. j.
For FIVE years / had been
growing more and more feeble.
/ was weak, run down and nerv-
GUS. Suffered with pain in my
back and side constantly and was
unable to obtain any relief what
ever. 1t seemed as if my cup Of
trouble was already full when !
was overtaken by catarrhal bron-
chitis and for FIVE weeks was con-
fined to my bed.
Nothing seemed to help me
and was in deepest despair when
aneighbor advised me to try Mucu-
Tone. From the first dose ex-
perienced relief. / succeeded in
breaking up the attack completely
within twenty-four hours, and at
the end Of week felt like new
woman. Today ! ann in perfect
health; something ! have not
known for years. ] therefore feel
safe in advising all women who
are nervous and broken down to
buy bottle Of Rexall Mucu-Tone
and to take it as directed, =

DITION MEANS ?

Well, sooner or later You will

BEeINNINe TODAY, the EQUAL Tax /

BEGINNING to-day, the Equal Tax

and keep busy until their inyestiga-
ton is completed and their report

The city Of Plaintield has increased
the price Of a liquor license fee to
81, 900 year, an increase of $500 over
the old rate. This is the highest rate
in the State. 1t is safe to say chat
the increase will cause mo reduction
in the revenues Of the city from that

WHILE for many years it was
thought that consumption was an
incurable disease and there was no
use In fighting it, il has been
found chat the disease is a preyenta-
BILE one. In 1890 the death rate in the
United States was 1875 in each 1000,
in 1900 it was 17.S, and for 1908 it is
scheduled as having been II, and it
is due, according to medical authority,
to the decrease In consumption.
In view Of these facts it is gratify-
ing to know that the state sanitarium
for tuberculosis patients in Hunter
don county is now under way.

THANKSGIVING is 50 generally rel
garded as d day Of feasting and rejoic-
Ling that it Is hard to realize that its
origin IN this country was at a time
when to outward appearances there
was very little to be thankful for. The
pilgrim fathers, in the fall of 1920,
after a most tedious voyage i'd the
Mayhower had landed on the in
hospitable coast Of New England,
when as Bradford says. z the inhabi
tants were reader to fill their sides
full Of arrows than otherwise. And
for the season it was winter, and they
that know the winters of that country
know them to be sharp and violent,
and subject to cruel and fierce storms,
dangerous to travel to known places,
much more to search an unknown
coast. Besides, what could they see
but a hideous and desolate wilderness,
full of wild beasts and wild men !?
And what multitudes there might be
Of them they knew not. For summer
being done. all things stand upon them
with a weatherbeaten face; and the
whole country full Of woods and
thickets, represented a wild and saw
age hue. What could now sustain
them but the spirit Of God and his
grace? Might not and ought not the
children Of these fathers rightly say
Our fathers were Epglishmen, which
came over this great ocean, and were
ready to perish in this wilderness but.
they cried unto the Lord, and he
heard their voice and looked on their
adversely, etc. Let them therefore
praise the Lord, because he is good
and his mercies endure for ever. Yea,
let them which have been redeemed
of the Lord, shew how he hath de-
liyered them from the hand Of the OPP
pressor. When they wandered in the
desert wilderness out Of the way, and
found no city to dwell in, both hungry
and thirsty their soul was over
Whelmed In them. Let them confess
before the Lord his loving-kindness,
and his wonderful works before the
sons of men.
The spirit Of thanksgiving descended
to their posterity and thanksgiving
day was a New England institution
from that time down. It is signif-
cant, also, that it became national
observance by the thanksgiving proc
lamation of President Lincoln, in
1862, che darkest time in the later his
tory Of our country. And who shall
say that the turning unto the AL
mighty in time Of greatest extremity
with Thanksgiving and praise has not
been one of the strongest elements In
national as we'll as individual pros
perity.
