to some persons. I have noticed on two
occasions that it has been published that
North End was too fast for the All

LONGER LUNCH
PERIOD OPPOSED

There is considerable dissatisfaction
among the students of the Whining
ton High School because of the change
made in the lunch hour by the Board
of Education in order that the digestion
of thes tudents might be improved.
Ninety per cent. of the student body
opposed the change and so expressed
their sentiments in petitions presented
TO the School Board, but these were
ignored.
The boys at the High School who are
employed after school hours and many
who are members of the afternoon
classes at the Y. NJ. c. A. are most ef-
fected by the new rule. School will
dismiss at 8 o'clock instead of 2.3O, as
under the old rule.
The students point out that in no
high school in the country is the lunch
hour longer than a half hour. There
is movement on foot now to make In
dividual protests to the board.

The Board OF Police Commissioners. at
their weekly meeting yesterday afternoon.
practically decided an automobile was
necessary for the good Of the police SER

have appealed to private citizens for the
use of their automobiles In case Of a
hurry call and the commissioners consid-
cred that this was not just and proper.
That machine is needed in the depart
ment has been demonstrated time and
again and the fact that other cities have
taken to automobiles for service in their
police departments has impressed the local
board with their usefulness.
At present the city is overburdened and
the finances are in such shape that It is
hardly likely that City Council Will ap-
propriate any money at this time for an
automobile. The commissioners. however.

The title Of great belongs properly 10

he does walk a wire but he does more for
in the most reckless fashion he balances
himself on bicycle and also upon uni

ance is that he does this feat In the most

such a nicely that he has no difficulty
whatever in keeping upright.

The reason North End left the field in
