MOTIVES
PROMPT MURDER
AND MARRIAGE
MISS LOUISE CONNOLLY.
Cupidity and Passion lncite
Both, She Tells Audience
in WOman's Club.
MISS LOUISE CONNOLLY.

That marriage and murder are both
prompted by the same motives was
shown by Miss Louise Connolly in a
talk given this morning before the cur
rent vents department of the
Woman's Club, of Orange, Miss Martha
Tarbell, chairman.
In reading the newspapers began
Miss Connolly. IT see that the items
they contain can easily be put under
the heads sports, politics, marriage and
murder. More attention is given. to
sports by the newspaper-reading pub
lie than to any Of the other divisions.
The man who takes part in sports Is
naturally interested in that column.
The women are interested in it because
their sons or brothers or someone they
know are athletes. The man who takes
no part in sports is interested in it
because he wishes he was an athlete.
THE interest in athletics, from its
moral. its ethical and it's Humanitarian
aspects, is legitimate, but | am sure
you wouldn't invite ME here to talk to
you about sports. I will not talk on
politics for obvious reasons, SO the only
things left are marriage, with its corol-
cries, and murder, with its corolories.
Marriage and murder are melted by
n or both of two motives-cupidity
and passion. The person who muir
ders through passion is excused these
days; the person who enters into mari
tai relations through passion Is con-
demned and ostracized. The person
who commits murder through cupidity
Is punished to the fullest extent; the
woman who marries through cupidity
receives the approval of the world, and
the newspapers devote columns to her
wedding and gowns
THE perfect marriage is rare; l guess
even rarer than the perfect murder.
If you have not experienced 1t you have
seen il. 1t is the marriage in which
each recognizes he highest motives.
How are we going TO get 1t for our
children ever if we haven't gotten 1t
for ourselves?
INSPIRE in them the ideals which
they should seek in their mates and
keep before them a perfect example.
And I have not lost sight of the fact
that marriage is not only an action,
but a state. In the perfect state Of
marriage Is that beauty of life which
recognizes that there Is a sacredness
about each that isn't given away with
the marriage vow-a reverence for the
individuality of each.

CIVIC ASSOCIATION
FOR VOTES FOR WOMEN.
Especial to The Newark start

MORRISTOWN, March 2s.-The exc
cutive committee of the MorristoWri
Civic Association served notice last
night upon all residents of Morris
county that it would enter the lists
as "a champion o: woman suffrage. The
ballot should be given to the fair sex.
the committee agreed, at least on local
issues-more thar that, il shall be
given If tenacity of purpose and a
good lawyer, well versed in legal lore
and cunning, can turn the trick.
The discussion of woman suffrage
shared honors with d~enunciation of
speeding autoists on the program OF
debate. The latter should be curbed
the committee thought. A blacklist fer
chronic offenders. the injection Of a
little ginger into the somewhat jaded
energies of the police. and a plentiful
~placardirg of highways and thorough
fares, the committee believed. would
help check the evil.

RAILROAD RATES
TOO H|CH; APPEAL
TO STATE BODY
East Orange Councilman Sub
mits Figures to Show AL
legged Exorbitant Charges.

That citizens of East Orange, With
the exception of those having a month
~ Communication ticket. are being
charged a higher rate of fare on the
Lackawanna railroad than some other
municipalities, and in the alleged dis
elimination the city is practically pay
ing Tor the removal Of grade crossings
before the actual work begins was the
claim presented the City Council last
night by Councilman Frank Bancroft.
There was read a lengthy paper pre-
pared by him citing figures to bear,
out his contention, and this memorial,
along with a resolution calling for an
investigation of rates, passed unani-
mously, was ordered sent to the State
Public Service Utility Commission IN
an effort to secure relief.
There was further talk also durins
the meeting regarding grade crossing
elimination when Councilman }. Leon
ard Merrill requested Councilman
George A. Grover to explain whether
he was correctly informed through GER
tain newspapers that, speaking for the
entire committee. he stated in inter-
views the grade crossing situation was
mott such a serious one, and that the
committee was not going ahead on any
thing regarding elimination Just now.
Mr.. Grover said his colleague had oeen
m~isinformed by some persons, M MI.
Grover then withdrew the remarks he
had made for the time being until he
had further investigated and looked
over the newspaper articles.
In his statement regarding rates
Councilman Bancroft states there is a
~ per cent. increase shown over mu-
inequalities on the other end. The n
crease on a single trip ticket TO Ho-
boxer is 20 per cent; en a return ticket
rs Al per cent, and on a ten-trip
ticket as 2-3 per cent. On a ffty-trlp
ticket, he pointed out, an increase OF
26 2-13 per cent.
Mr.. Bancroft goes on to show that
in mileage figuring East Orange resi-
dents are given a poor deal. and in
long distances, on the railroads
method of computing, one can obtain
a cheaper ride than from the East Or
ange to the Grove street depot, and
after showing an example asks: II
a railroad carries me after leaving my
town for Al cents per mile on a fifty
trip ticket. why should it charge me
two cents a mile on the same class of
a ticket after approaching and within
the borders of East Orange" Con-
Guiding the report he says:

SCHOOL BOARD IS
RAPED AGAIN by
M0NTCLA|R MAYOR

Mayer Ernest c. Hinck's attitude
toward the Montclair Boar of .Edu-
cation in the matter of the proposed
addition to the High School was
brought out again last night at a
meeting of the Town Council. There
was a long discussion during which the
mayor charged the School Board with
including the purchase of a school lot
in the Fourth ward with the addition
to the High School in the issue Of $221,-
900 bonds for the purpose of securing
the votes of the Fourth ward mem
bers in the Council in favor of the
resolution for the addition to the High
School. 1t was finally decided to buy
the lot mentioned in Glen Ridge v
nue. at a cost of $4,000 and afterwards
to be reimbursed by the School Board.
Councilman McGlynn brought up the
matter of the purchase of the school
lot. He explained that the option will
expire on March 81. and he understood
that the owner refused to extend the
option. The purchase, he said, was in
cluded in the school bono issue of
1921. 900 ordered by the Council last De-
cember. The proposed addition to the
High School, the cost of which is fixed
at 5000, 900, was also included. The
three members of the School Board,
and the two members of the Council
from the Fourth ward. Mr.. McGlynn
said, were in favor of the purchase,
as additional school facilities are much
needed in that ward.
Mayo Makes Charge.
Mayor Hinck asked Town Attorney
Boyd if the bonds for IS. 900 could be
issued separately, and the latter said
all the bonds mentioned in the resolu-
ton must be issued at the same time.
Mayor Hinck then charged that the
Board of Education was attempting to
influence the Council to vote for the
High School addition.
Councilman Hartshorne differed with
the Mayor. He did not think improper
motives should be charged to the Board
of Education. IF the resolution au-
thorizing the issue of the bonds is to
be rescinded, it is up to the Board of
Education to take the first step. /
have had a conversation with Benjamin
V. Harrison, president of the board, re-
Gently, and he said that board was
willing to rescind the resolution il the
Council you make an appropriation
large enough to build a new high
school,
In order that the option should not
expire on the lot, Mr.. Hartsllorne in
troduced an ordinance empowering the
Council to buy the lot, and afterwards
to be reimbursed by the School Board.
There was nc opposition to this settle
ment of the lot question.
