The New Jersey legislature and
State officials, aroused to their re-
sponsibility as promoters of the best
interests of their commonwealth, have
voted millions of dollars to be used in
constructing an ocean boulevard, to
run the entire length of the coast, says
the National Magazine. In a state al
ready famous for it's roads this will
undoubtedly be the finest driveway in
America and will be superb addition
to the already wonderful attractions of
the Jersey coast. With the assistance
of the United States government the
state has also appropriated money for
the dredging of an inland waterway
through the maze of bays, creeks and
inlets from Bey Head to Cape May,
which will make it possible for pleas
ure craft to ply between the resorts
with absolute safety at all times.

HOW TO KILL TIME

With only fifteen days left OF
the present session there is
enough work to do without resort
ing to puny attempts of humor
at the rate of thousand dollars
a day.
Here is an example of what we
mean:
The Texas fever tick appropria-
ton bill was up for consideration
Friday and it finally passed
after reducing the amount from
$50, 900 to $10,000-but not until
a lot of valuable time was vast
ed that might have been prof.
tally employed on other matters.
One member offered an amend
ment that it alsoincludes chigoes
and granddaddies.
1t was voted down, in due form,
but it cost the taxpayers money.
Another amendment was offer
ed~that 30 per cent be used in
the determination Of buffalo
gnats and horse flies.
This was also voted down.
Still another wise amendment
proposed that the appropriation
be reduced from $4,000 to 20
cents.
This was likewise voted down.
Then the bill was passed for
$4,000.
Those amendments were un-
worthy those calling themselves
statesman.
Are Legislators children or
comic opera artists that they
should resort to such silly horse
play?
No wonder there is not enough
time to transact the necessary
business when time IS wasted in
such a wilfully profiga'e man

Many have embarked without
this knowledge, and as derelicts
have been cast ashore. Secure a
knowledge of the laws and Gus
toms of business, combine it
with a knowledge of bookkeep-
ing shorthand and typewriting,
and you will have a safe pilot
that can weather the storms and
and avoid the dangers and Whirl-
pools of financial wreck and ruin,
and steer you safely into the
harbor of independence and sue

THE CRANKS OF ILLINOIS

A member of the legislature
of Illinois has introduced a bill
to limit the size of Women's hats.
There won't be a great deal said
about the matter as it happened
in Illinois, but if such a bill had
been introduced in the Kansas
legislature it would have been
placed on the front pages OF all
the leading dalies of the country
as another instance of the crank
ism of Kansas.
Kansas has no more cranks IN
proportion to her population thai
any other state, but the Kansas
product creates more comment.
One crank in Kansas will create
more comment than a dozen

THE DREADNOUGHT CRAZE

What will be the end of the
! Dreadnought craze?
1t is becoming serious propo-
sition among the nations.
All have been forging blindly
ahead toward goal indefinitely
understood to be a superiority
above all other nations of the
world.
The building of Dreadnoughts
by one nation has been followed
by the building of Dreadnought
destroyers by another until each
nation making pretence OF
naval strengthened at present
that includes the United States,
England, France, Germany and
Japan-is straining its national
credit to reach or to maintain
this coveted supremacy.
For instance, England is com
mitted to the policy of beginning
work this year upon eight or
twelve of these floating Gibral-
tars that are t. cost $40, 900, 600
each, a possible initial cost of
S120, 900, 900.
And the first cost represents a
small portion of the total, for the
cost Of maintenance and of man
ming such fleet is tremendous.
Austria is the latest to become
afflicted with the craze, and the
only reason that deters Russia is
the strained finances.
The United States is going wild
over the proposition, but not so
wild as some of the Big Navy
advocates would have it, and the
time is coming when the naval
burden will become so great in
conjunction with the military es-
Enlistment that the people will
not be able to stand beneath it.
Militarism is the Old Man of
the Sea that threatens destruc-
ton of the nations its advocates
pretend is for its salvation. Ark.
