a life has been lost by overwork and
exposure, due to unwise methods of
housekeeping. This need not be. In
early spring all closets, c%upboards and
bureaus can be cleaned, and all useless
articles disposed of. All articles that
require laundering can be done and laid
iway, and when the weather is so mild

After that, all pictures and bric-a-brac

That Firemen's Parade.

The first comment to reach the
EVENING NEWS on the liremen's
parade question was given verbally by
a member of Washington Hose Com
plny. 1t was something like this:
s'Say, the NEWS is booming a fire.
mems parade, | see" was the first
remark.
sYes, the NEWS would like to see
one was the reply.
''If the city is going to spend $3.50
for firemen, why don't the aldermen
fix up the sidewalk and bridge it from
Washington hose house?'' continued
the speaker. cit takes Il team OF
horses and about fifty men to get that
wagon out of the house into the street
every time an alarm sounds now. It's
q shame to let that remain in its
present condition. That thing ought
to be liked"
This titeman seemed to he quite in.
dignant. He forgot all about a parade
in his enthusiasm for repairs at Wash
ington hose house.
Now, of course, this idea of the
city appropriating 1850 for a parade,
or any other purpose, is all suppose
tion. AS far as we know, the alder
men have not even considered the
matter. Chief Glenn, in an inter
view with the NEWS, stated that il
the aldermen would appropriate $l5(
for each one of the five fire companies
he would raise 81, 800 for the parade.
AS was stated before, the city treasury
may not be in shape 20 give thi'
money for any purpose.
The remarks of our enthusiast,
fireman, however, is of interest. |
calls attention to the fact that al
though nun improvements hav'
been made to the department ther'
are still many things of minor impor
tance that would gladden. the heart
of the liremen if attended to. Wash
ington hose wants the front of it
house fixed and doubtless there are
other things there the firemen woulC
like attended to-. So with every othe
company. The question arises, if tn
aldermen should contemplate s~pendin!
1850 on the firemen, would it not servl
a better purpose, at present, to pro
vide these necessary details for til,
department rather than spend it OF
a parade? Let's hear some more opin
ions. This is a subject that will beai
discussion. Granted, for the sake o
the argument that the city has $3.50 t.

Need Official Scores.

: The Industrial Baseball League is
now in its second year and its success
has been beyond expectation. The
NEWS is proud of the part it took in
getting the teams together. The en-
thusiasm aroused at the games proves
the loyalty of the employees to the
different plants and also shows the
feelings of their friends. These fac
tory league games now create as much
enthusiasm in Perth Amboy as the
college games do in the college towns.
They are played for the friendly son
test of seeing which of the local
manufacturing concerns has the best
baseball players and the gamers are
therefore devoid of that commercial
feeling where men play for the highest
salary.
AS successful as the factory league
is, there is Still one thing in which it
is lax. There seems to be no SYSTEM
attic. official score records of the games
played. 1t would seem that when a
trophy, such as the cup now up for
the successful team, is at stake, the
official scores, kept by al official
scorer, appointed by the league mana
gers, are absolutely essential. Not
only should each team have its official
score book, but a detailed record of
each game should be kept by the
manager of the league. The factory
league has taken a prominent place in
Perth Amboy baseball and the people
would like to know something more
about the games than the mere total
