PUBLIC SPEAKING
The College Is Now to Have a New Man
in the English Department.

The English department has been
laboring under a handicap this year
in having only two men to do the
work of three. Consequently it has
been necessary to omit some courses.
1t is hoped that this situation will
be relieved during the second Sc
mester by the reappointment of a
third instructor. Tie department
has for months been on the lookout
for an able man who, besides
the ordinary work of an instructor
in English, should be especially
we'll prepared to do the work in de-
bate and oratory. 1t is believed
that such a man has been found.
The candidate who has been recon-
mended to the board of regents for
this position is graduate of mid
die west university and of the Bos-
ton School of Expression. He was
for three years in charge of public
speaking in an Ohio university,
where he achieved marked success
as teacher and an organizer. He
is also the author of book on ora.
tory. Until April the course in
English 6 will be given by DIR.
Berglund as a two-ffths course in

POS- MEMS WALKING FEATS.
One in English Service Holds Record
with 100000 Miles in So Years.

There must be few, even among
men of letters" who, like Joseph
Hunt, a Lincolnshire, England post
man, can claim to have tramped a dis
lance of, roughly 240, 900 miles, not
much less than the equivalent of ten
Journeys around the earth.
Not long ago George Thompson, re-
tired from service as postman in the
Langrick district of Yorkshire, after
covering on foot 125,000 miles in 26
years of letter carrying, a service IA
years shorter than that of his Lincoln
shire rival.
In "a years Orme NJ. Brown walked
II 900 miles as postman between Cup
ar and Kilmany and Logie-a dis
lance, as was stated in the appropri-
ate presentation to him of an easy
chair, nearly equal to half that which
separates the moon from the earth.
John Simmonds of Henley-on-
Thames retired with a record of 49,
900 miles of fair heel and toe" the
result of 40 years tramping; while
most amazing of all, Thomas Phipps,
a postman in the Chipping Norton dis
trict, was credited with an aggregate
Journey of 100000 miles between the
years 1910 and 1898.

The council has made a wise
move in creating the Office of
street and water superintendent
and putting him on in place of a
deputy marshal, If he attends
properly to that one feature of
his duty. the supervision and in
spection of the water system, he
will more than save his salary.
Many householders are using
water for purposes that are not
reported or collected for, through
oversight, and many leaks that
could be stopped would reduce
the expense for pumping quite
materially.

rs a battle royal overshadowing the State elections. New Jersey
has had a calm political campaign, and the election today is de-
void of excitement, except in the East Hudson cities. There has
been so little to stir the political waters in this State that the
shrewdest guessers have been unable to catch the drift of that
unspeaking sentiment which first reveals itself on election night
after the polls are closed, or to make any estimate better than a
mere guess. New Jersey, and especially Newark, is subject to
extreme shifts in politics. In 1904 Roosevelts plurality was s0,59S
in the State. Two years later, when the Democrats had recovered
from that blow, the Republican plurality was only 1,432 In 1907
Forts plurality was sob, and then in 1908 came the great Taft
plurality of 81, ZIG, while the Republicans carried the Legislature
by 61,5s6. That was only a year ago, and New Jersey is in doubt
today. In 1904 Newark went Republican on electors by 1902
plurality. The next year it gave Colby, Republican, 1887 pu-
rality. In 1906 the Democratic plurality on Assembly was 9,045
and 1890 for, Mayor. In 1907 Fort was defeated for Governor
in the city by 5000, and the Democratic Assembly candidates re
ceived majorities, while the Republicans elected the Board of
Works Commissioners. Last year Taft got about 10000 plurality
in Newark, and on the same day and on the same ticket Colby was
defeated for senator by 9y2O7 and Morgan for sheriff by 1924,
although the Republican Assembly plurality was 2yS42. Haussling,
for Mayor, got 1923 plurality, and the Democrats lost the Board
of Works commissioners and also control of the Common Council.
In the light of these figures, who shall predict how Newark and
Essex and the State of New Jersey will vote today?

Paterson, which has thirtythree of the machines, despite the desire
of the voters to get rid of them. A man appears in the office of the
city clerk and represents that he is from the secretary OF states Office
and has come to adjust the machines. He wants access to them,
and is denied. Senator Hinchlife, the legislative foe of the voting
machine, is a candidate for reelection in Passaic county, and it
was natural that he should suspect a wrongful intent. The ma
chimes were placed under police guard. The incident is important
perhaps only in its suggestion of what might happen if all the dis
tricts used the voting machines and all the machines were under
State control by a partisan ofice-holder.

Dear Sir--I have been reading with

regard to the Mathews CONTROVERSY.
We do not want an anarchist to teach
our children; we want a Christian. The
Rev. e. F. Quirk knows, what he is
talking about, and every Christian, re-

the Anarchist and the Socialist would
like to sit on the Bible. To prove ",

It is not the Roman Catholic Church
that is on record; it is Professor
Mathews. I say he is correct. II that
writer in East Orange was in Professor
Mathews's place he would enroll the
children In the modern order of Holy
Rollers or devil chasers, as they SO call
themselves. No doubt he Is either. He
would let ancient religion go for such

to throw bombs. / am sorry he mailed
such a letter from East Orange, as l
live in the Oranges, and hope he is
only on a visit. Perhaps he could pre-
