A MORRIS PLAINS INDUSTRY

American Shoe shank Co., Has an Up
To-Daue Power Plant.
The power plant for the new factory
of the American Shoe Shank Co., on
Hanover avenue, MoTris Plains, has
been put in and is the most up-to-date
article of it's kind in this vicinity. j.
w. Arrowsmith secured for the works
a complete producer gas apparatus,
comprising gas generator, scrubber,
engine, auxiliary engine and blower.
The producing apparatus is rated at a
hundred horse power, while the main
Sas engine is of sixty. The secondary
engine is of small size designed to
work the blower, while gas is being
produced for the larger unit.
The producer is fed at the top with
coal of pea size, the ashes being re-
moved through doors at the bottom.
A constant stream of water is turned
into steam by the heat in the producer
and generates the gas which after be-
ing scrubbed in a cylinder which holds
two tons of coke, is ready for the en-
gine.
The engine is belted to fifty horse
power dynamo of the Crocker Wheeler
make, which will drive motors direct
connected to each machine used in the
works and also furnish current for
about two hundred incandescent
lamps. Part of the surplus gas pro-
duced will be used for heating the
four buildings already erected.
The buildings have concrete floors,
sides and roofs and the only thing
which can burn is the wooden doors
and window castings. The buildings
are connected by passage ways wide
enough for a wagon to be driven
through to deliver goods wherever
needed. The plant will not be run
ming before autumn.
The British government will use gas
engines and producer apparatus to
propel the great war ship which is
soon TO be built and it is also planned
to use gas engines for one of the new
Atlantic passenger steamships.

Fewer Mail Deliveries During vaca-
tiOns.


The question of deliveries by the
mail carriers during the vacation sea-
son is one which is troubling the pos
tai authorities of Morristown as well
as other towns all over the country.
Congress failed to appropriate enough
money to provide substitutes for the
carriers on vacation during the sum-
mer and also legislated that the fifteen
days vacation should be exclusive of
Sundays and holidays, so every carrier
will have at least seventeen days off
duty. In order to get around the diff
Guilty the department wants the car
riers districts doubled during the va
cation season, one carrier carrying ap-
proximately two districts. This will
result here in about one delivery for
most of the town.

time she smiles. He allows her thirty
six smiles day-a fair average-and,
according to this computation, the tenn
porary extensions of her lips amount
to the total of eighteen inches.
Very good indeed!
Pursuing these statistics, one can
easily figure that in an entire year the
average woman's face would be
wreathed and twisted into more than
1So yards of sunny, winsome smiles.
And that is going some.
This presumably accurate estimate,
however, it must be remembered, takes
no account of variations. You see,
there are some women who do not
smile more than the sixteenth part of
an inch at one attempt. And some of
them do not make the attempt more
than thirty six times month. Their
smiles are stingy and therefore difficult
to measure. Besides, they are the
smiles that come of.
Other gracious ones smile easily and
often-all over their faces. Most any
thing good will set their bonny lips to

stretching and their dimples to dancing
accompaniment to laughing eyes. Your
English expert cannot measure the ag-
gregate length of their smiles. Not on
your life. That sort of smiles stretch
leagues Of happy laughter.
And there are some men also who
can do good job of smiling. The con-
vulsion of mirth starts somewhere
down in the region of the diaphram,
creeps upward until it spreads all over
the jolly countenance. Such smiles are
somewhat less than a rod in length.
They need no eulogy.
Note, for instance, those types of
hearty, irrepressible, generous, wide
open smiles by Theodore Roosevelt and
William ]. Bryan.
Let your Englishman tackle them.
Half an inch?
Why, they are as wide as a barn
door
Applying the Englighman's measure
ments, Bryan and Roosevelt smile huge
~ and without mental reservation sew

THE CITIZEN.

In every town there are three sets of men,
the one who is always planning and working to
build up the town, the chap who is willing to
sit back and help after things have started, and
last the GROWER who sees in every move a sell
fish motive, in short, the "knocker.' Either
YOU are boosting your town or you passive
and let the other fellow take the lead and then
help or you belong to the class of men who
carry their hammers always OIL the lookout for
someone to use them on.
The first class mentioned are men who can
look into the future, who know human nature
and who take pleasure in doing good for the
town Some of these fellows always start
ing things and finish few of them They succeed
a few times out of the many and ultimately do
some good. Then there are the visionary tel
lows who are always seeing great things, but
whose cool judgment and good business ability
prevent them from allying themselves with any
project save one they push to completion.
These two subdivisions of this class work to-
,gether, the more conservative ones holding the
more eager in check and at the same time be-
ING cheered and encouraged by the more en-
thusiastc.
Then comes the average citizen. Not
daShln0 the OtnerS neuIlOucu; lnoNCS
along at his business, does the best he can, is
good neighbor, a good father, an honest and in
dustrious citizen. To interest him in anything
vou must PERSUADE him that it is really ght.
He will watch the booms started by the real
boosters and if they have the right appearance
he will help. Usually he helps; when money
is needed he will give with good natured pro
test but he will give it just the same His town
is ALWAYS the best earth and he can prove it
bv figures. He is fully important to the
town as the first-named boosters.
Then comes the knocker. Seldom success
ful himself, he cannot success for Others
His venom is great deal worse than that OF
GOSSIP He is constantly on the alert for some
thing to knock. The country, the state the
county and the city going to the demntion
bowwows and he can prove it, The leading
citizen is thief only it never proved on
him. The man of money made it crushing out
connection and working the lives out of his
EMPLOYEES In fact, there is nothing IN the
world that is good.-Northtield News.

SATURDAY, JULY 4, 1905

The demand of the time is for men-men
who are willing to take off their coats and go to
work, The country has plenty of lawyers,
musicians, and preachers and editors and others
who conspicuously fail to make two bales OF
hay grow where one grew before. The pro-
LESSONS are all over-crowded the offices are full
of men who are going hungry in genteel re-
finement; the streets are being worn smooth by
weary feet of countless thousands of gifted and
highly educated individuals who are filled with
an unspeakable yearning to accept lucrative
situations, but who never think of hunting for
Jobs Every situation that involves an arm
chair is beseiged by clamoring applicants.
When a city business man advertises for
cashier bookkeeper, he has to have platoon
of police to protect him from the answering
throng. There too many lily fingers IN the
country and yet not enough hands with blisters
on.-Swift County Review.

THE WIDTH OF A SMILE.

THE WIDTH OF A SMILE.
This is a statistical age. Everything
nowadays must be reduced to the av-
erage of tabulated figures.
Following this disposition, an inquir-
ing Englishman with genius for fig
ures has been devoting himself to the
statistics of smiles. Naturally he finds
the smiles of women the more inter
esting study.
On an average, he says, woman's
mouth is stretched a half inch each

The only contest which developed in the
recent Republican state convention was that.
over the office of railroad commissioner, the
candidates being, Mills and Young, who were
up for re nomination, and Elmquist, Grass and
ABBY. Young withdrew, and Miles and Elm
quist were nominated. Grass a poor third
in spite of the fact that he is the president OF
the Minnesota Shippers and Receivers Asso-l
citation, and had the backing of that organiza-
ton, which has done more than any other or
ganization to secure just treatment for the.
railr DAD patrons of the states.

J. F. jacobson has become the Republican
nominee for governor-this time by acclama-
ton, and Republican victory at the poles next
November is assured. The party is more har-
nonious than it has been for years, the rank
and file have the candidate whom they want,
the various factions have become tired of
quarrelling and even Bob Dunn can feel that
he has been vindicated. The Democrats never
have been able to make any Roadway in Mime
sofa except when the Republicans were divided,
and now that the Republicans have nominated
the who is the choice of the whole people
of the state it is up to some Democrat to move
to make his election unanimous.

Today is the Fourth of July, the annver-
sary of the nations birthday, and we can all
turn in to celebrate the day with full confidence
that the country is not going to the bowwows
even if the Democrats do nominate Bryan next
Tuesday, and even Taft is going to be elected
president next November This nation is
greater than it's parties and greater than it's
men. In spite of the dangers that appear to
threaten, and the evils that grow up within,
we know that it's institutions are safe, for the
love of freedom and democracy is enthroned in
the hearts of the people.

The spirit of cheerfulness is sometimes the
result of happy temperament whose nerves
have never been disturbed by loss sickness or
calamity. Sometimes it is abundance of youth
still finding surplus of vigor after the tolls of
the day, Sometimes it is the expression of
character which from the reserves of it's own
nature and experience is able to preserve a
cheerful disposition under even the most dis
couraging circumstances and face life always
with hope and good cheer. Such a character is
strength and defense not only to him who
has it, but to all his associates and to all who
feel his influence, They the watchtowers
of humanity, whose lights shine thru the dark
night of human struggle and whose word is
inspiration of hope and encouragement.-Ex.

Frequently we hear young men say that
there is no opportunity now days for young
man to make his mark in the world. Every
line of activity is overcrowded and hundreds
are waiting for the place where there is but
room for one. We havn't much faith in that
argument. There never a time when a
young man of the right calibre could forge
ahead faster than he now. Opportunities
open up every day which not taken advan-
tage Of The trouble seems to be that any lob
that looks like hard work is not sought for.
Those who do not find opportunities have not
properly fitted themselves to take advantage of
them when they are presented Senator Be
veridge says: Never in history there such
day for young in public life as that
which has now dawned There is so much
more to be done than there BEFORE
so MANY more hands needed for the work than
ever pefore-clean hands, strong hands, trained
hands, American public life is crying aloud
for men who are honest, industrious and
eouipped.-Pelican Rapids Press.
