FRIDAY. JUNE s.
TO STOP SPEEDING.

Now 1t is the county that is get
ting after the autoists. First it was
M~etuchen, then New Brunswick, and
the rest of the cities and ~boroughs
should follow suit, With the coop
GRAFTON of the county there is little
doubt but that much good could be
done.
The average autoist cares less
about the SIS fine than he does about
the delay and annoyance of being
taken before a Justice. Therefore, if
the autoist was stopped in this city
soon after he had left the fe%rryboat
ana arrested for speeding, causing
him to be delayed for at least a half
hour; then If he should be arrested
again by the county inspector, while
trying to make up lost time between
here and Metuchen, and should be
subjected to another delay and more
annoyance; then arrested once more
in Metuchen only to go through the
same proceeding, he would doubtless
begin to get his eyes open and would
have a little more respect for the Jaw
during the rest of his journey.
If, however, he had not yet had
enough, and started TO speed on to
New Brunswick he should be ar
rested by another county inspector
and delayed and fined, and still again,
should be captured by the New Bruins
wick authorities, it would be sufi-
Client to keep the fellow within
bounds during the rest of the journey
across the state. BY repeating this
dose for several weeks it is probable
autoists would begin to have a whole
some respect for Jersey justice and
would give a little more considera-
tion to the protection Of life and
property on the highways. An auto
list arrested and fined five times be-
tween this city and New Brunswick
would learn that he would not only
save much money by keeping within
the twenty miles an hour limit, but
he would also make quicker time in
the long run and that is the point
that concerns them most, apparently.
The two and a half hours spent in
Justices courts, to say nothing of the
a~nnoyances, would take an automo-
bic fifty miles at the legal speed.
ii the county should place a nan
on. the road between here and Me-
nd another between Metuch-

Record with Lincoln, and thereby in

 The woman who buys pretty clothes has the satisfaction of looking at her reflection in a mirror, but this satiS- faction is as shadowN, as fitting, as unreal as the vision she beholds, The woman who fills her house with beau- tiful furnishings reioices for a cer- tain time and then the beautiful things lose ill interest. The woman whose bank account grows with every year knows that she is safe from pow ertN, but you cant get any more heart warmth ont of a bank book than if it Were an icicle.
 But how about the woman whose mind is running over with thou2htful- ness for others, who is decent and kind to her cook .Who is considerate of the aged, eager to help the needy, and always the fine, splendid helper and friend to all who know her?
 Let me tell you something. It is i'll her heart that you will find genuine contentment No matter what norris ble anXieties she has suffered, what dreadful troubles she has dragged wearly through, what pain and cares have been hers, she is the one who knows the calm, sweet comfort that comes when she looks out into a gray sky and realizes that she has done good to some one, that she has brought a smile to quiverins lips, light tc discouraged eyes, life to a heart with out hope.
 She doesn't have to walt unti Christmas. Every day is that-and more-to her.

Of all @eauJiful legends. ot all beaa- tiful verse of all storiei told in all The life of the whole world. there is uo tale so WondroUaly beautiful as the story of the Christ child. Every man and every woman must recall those 1ong-ago, far-aWay days when first the ~yorv was told to thnm. the story of .ne little babe in the manager, of the star of Bethlehem, with it's rain Of fire he shepherds, the wise men and the songs of the angels And with this memory come back other memories, mental visions of those whom we loved and who have passed away; of all the sweet joys of childhood, when the world was d playground instead of a workshop: Of fond dreams and childish disappointments. Christmas day is time when We must pause on the journey and rest by the Nayside, sparing the golden hours for reverie and tasting the sweetest of generosity and tender charity
 By all manner of judgment and be- liefs we must concede that, so far as doing good is concerned, all days should be Christmas. To DestoW neck ties on December D and cross words all the other 364 days of the year is 10 be like the common sinner who cheats his neiShbor during the week and prays most energetically on the Sab bath.
 Let us not confine our gifts to ma terial things, but open up our hearts and give freely of their great stores. There's many a woman who, receiving a costly gift from husband or father, would only too gladly exchange it for some sweet expression of his fond- ness and affection. Many a mother from whom her children have grown away would prefer a caress, one en- dearing word, kiss of love. to all the tyinkets and bauDles and gifts In the shops.
 It isn't the gift, it's the love and thoughtfulness that prompt it. The woman who gives because she feels it duty is practicing deceit, and belit- tlins herself. If one wishes not to be- stow a holiday remembrance let one at least have the courage of ones feel ings and sentiments and be true and honest about it, No human soul wants a gift that Is given grudgingly.
 According to our way of thinking it is a beautiful thing that, once a year, one may have the privilege of doing something nice for those to whom one is devoted.
 The pleasure is so great that, on
