EXPERT SCORES LACK OF
PUBLIC lighthouses HERE

Newark's lack of facilities in public
lighthouses was criticised last night
by DR.. John J. Cronin, of New York
city, who delivered a lecture on "Clean-
illness as an Asset for a City" at this
First Presbyterian Church. DR.. Gro
nin's lecture was one of a series given
his winter at the First Church under
the auspices of the Board of Educa-
lion.
DR.. Cronin had made u thorough in
spection of the Summer avenue bath
house yesterday afternoon. and was
be to contrast conditions here with
the facilities provided by more up-to-
uate cities.
"For u comparatively small sum Of
money" said DIR. Cronin, the bath
houses here could be brought to u
nigh state of efficiency. At present they
are poorly lighted, lacking in proper
Ventilating facilities, and are made
quate for the needs of a city the size
OF Newark"

showed the dtrigible type the bi-plane.
the monoplane and the various models
OF airships. Mr.. Kinball said:
1.-THE flying age of mar has come
upon us so suddenly that in a very
short time it will not be surprising to
look at the sky and see all manner and
type of machines in the air. In order
to handle the question of properly
caring for the machines and to keep
abreast of the times it is of vital neces-
sity that such societies as that which
you are about to organize should be
formed"
After showing the slides on the
machine, moving pictures of the inter-
national aerial ace at Rheims, France,
last year were shown. Wilbur Wright
and Glenn Curtiss were shown in their
machines, winning various events and
breaking worlds records.

NEW YORK, Feb. u.-That Moses
