PATERSONS MAYOR
MAKES A THREAT

for an Injunction if the State Water Supply Commission shall
grant Newark's formal request for the right to enter the
Nanaque watershed for an auxiliary supply of water. The State
board has arranged for a hearing on Newark's application and
Patersons Mayor has been invited to be present and state his
objections to the grant, but Mayor Mcbride anticipates the hear
ing by uttering threats against the commission and invoking
what he imagines is the law OF the State A temporary in
junction, if granted, will Of course amount to nothing. Newark
is not in a hurry and can wait to see Patersons Mayor shown
out OF court. But it is noteworthy that at least one Paterson
newspaper, The Guardian, has been impeled to the truth by
Newark's application. 1t confesses the enterprise OF Newark and
Jersey City in acquiring water supply plants by purchase, while,
when Paterson wanted water, its citizens asked the State to
furnish the supply. In point of fact, what Paterson did ask was
that Newark and other municipalities should obligate themselves
for many millions to build a great reservoir at Mountain View
for Paterson to draw water from. A reasonable request, indeed,
and from a town as selfish as it is unenterprising and I'M
progressive.

UNCONSCIOUS WORRY.

A great many people worry uncon-
sciously, says o. s. Marden in Success
Magazine. They don't understand why
they are SO tired In the morning, why
their sleep was so disturbed and
troubled.
This mental disturbance is often
caused by the habit of taking things
too seriously. carrying too great a
weight Of responsibility. Everywhere
we see people who TAX life too seri-
fously. Most OF US are like the motor
man. who not only starts and stops
the car and tries to keep from running
over people. but also feels tremendous
anxiety and responsibility about the
motive power.
