TRAFFIC ILLS ARE
BELLEV|LLE TRADE
BOARD TARGETS
Trolley Service and Erie Freight
Trains on Crossings Sub
iects of Criticism.

The traffic department of the Tubllc
Service Corporation came in for a lam
bastlng last night at the hands of the
Belleville Board of Trade. Poor service
and bad conditions of tracks were the
centres of attack.
A half dozen or more members took
turns in roasting the for the
service given Belleville, n 1t was the
general opinion that fewer cars are
being III out to the Big Tree" The
Board of Freeholders having jurisdic-
ton over Washington avenue, it was
felt that Freebooter Pierre Black may
be able to do something for the town.
ship. n he will be asked to stir UP
action towards getting better tracks
and roadbeds.
The head of the traffic department of
the company will be requested to give
adequate service in the number of cars.
The Erie Railroad Company was an
other victim. The way the freight
trains block the crossings. principally
at Joralemon and Schuyler streets, fur
nished a motive for a general attack.
Secretary Elias S. Var Dusen, at the
last meeting of the board, was in
structed to communicate with the COM.
pany on his matter. He reported last
night that he had received no reply to
his letter.
There was talk of having the police
arrest the crews of these trains n 1t
was finally decided to equest Chief Of
Police Flynn to investigate conditions
and use his influence with the the train
crews 80 that the crossings would not
be blocked. Some fault was found with
the system In the police department,
whereby there is no one on duty in the
police station during the day. John
N. Zwingle had several instances TO re-
late of where persons could not get into
communication with the station house
during the day when an officer was
needed.
The speakers all agreed that no fault
was to be found with the work of Chief
Flynn. who is on duty during the day.
but they thought that the police com
mittee ought to have a man on duty
at the station house at all times.

ADDRESSES NURSES ON
ETHICS OF PROFESSION.

Miss Sophia Palmer, who. for many
years, has been working for progress
and higher standards In the nursing
profession. and chief editor of the
American. Journal of Nursing. delivered
an address yesterday afternoon at the
Orange Memorial Hospital. Her audi
ence was composed of student nurses,
for whose especial benefit the lecture
was planned, and from thirty to forty
nurses were also present.
Miss Palmer's address was intended
especially for nurses In training. and
consisted of simple, earnest advice,
from one who, by reason of long expe-
rience, could give precepts underlying
professional success. She spoke of the
necessity for a dignif1ed relationship be.
tween doctor and nurse; dwelt on the
danger of extravaganza, especially In
dress: advised a bank account and ac-
cumulated savings which would result
In investment. and she told of the
necessity of keeping in touch with the
worlds work through periodical litera-
ture. She advised the nurse to cherish
as a legacy, any accomplishment she
might have acquired, which would
surely lend grace and pleasure to a pro-
fessional life. Nfh
Miss Palmer made an earnest plea for
loyalty to the profession. and begged
that vital questions, such as providing
trained nursing for the middle classes.a
should claim the thought of young grad-l
yates. with whom will rest the solution
of the problem. Nurses can claim, she
said. the title Of profession when they
prove that their work is not purely for
money. and that they are really units in
the great body of men and women who
aim to add something to the welfare Of
society.
