TEACHING MOTHERHOOD TO GIRLS.

m n experiment in the training of girls that is in the line of
IA the highest philanthropy as well as of the best education
is that which is now to be made. with the approval of the
Board of Education, by DIR. Henry L. Colt, head physician of the
Babies Hospital. He will establish in the Eighteenth Avenue School
classes for teaching girls the care and treatment of infants. In
FAINT mortality is a problem that has never been intellgently dealt
with. One of the causes is the Grass ignorance of mothers as to
the care of their progeny. Maternal ignorance sends thousands of
infants TO the grave. Girls are allowed to grow up and get married
and bear children with no more knowledge of the care of infants
than what they may pick up in their homes. Could an educational
work be of greater value than that which teaches the duties of
motherhood and is some insurance for the life of the tender babe
in the hands of the mother?

M CCORDING to the Washington forecast of the forthcoming
~ message by the President it will consist of about five thou
sand words and deal almost exclusively with the trust ques-
ton, all other subjects to be treated of in special messages sent
later to Congress. There have been revRions and rereyisions of the
text of the message and apparently the idea of dealing with the
trust question was suggested by the Roosevelt article in Outlook
attacking the administration policy on that question. Mr.. Taft, it
is said, will ask for no supplementary legislation and will dwell
upon the Subject of Federal Incorporation, urging the enactment of
a bill for that purpose, which will virtually be an acknowledgment
of the fuuity of the elaborate and expensive trust prosecutions by
the government that have been productive of such meagre results.
But it is not a friendly or receptive Congress that this message
will go to.

MpoS7URES ON THE BENEVOLENT.

m S this is the season when charitably disposed people are ready
TA to contribute to worthy objects there is a class of impostors
who take advantage by soliciting for all kinds of imaginary
and fraudulent objects. Money thus given is diverted from charity
and philanthropy into the pockets of the scalawag collectors.
Among the imposters who are low deceivng good people in New
ark, it is alleged, are several cOlored men with tales of highly
deserving negro institutions in the South. In Lone of these cases
where the solicitor described the location of the institution it was
found by inquiry to be a small patch of land, with a vacant shack
that had never been occupied. People who may be inclined to help
a worthy colored institution in the South or elsewhere would save
themselves the modification of being grossly imposed on by making
inquiry of the Bureau of Associated Charities, which investigates
these matters and has on hand an assorted list of impostures for
possible victims to inspect.

A BETTER CENTRE. MARKET.

HH AVING made IA tour of some of the principal cities, with the
Ii Ii declared object of inspecting their public market facilities,
the members of the Centre Market committee of the Com
mon Council should have imbibed some progressive ideas that may
be utilized in developing Centre Market into a decent mart of
trade. 1t is very far from that in it's present condition. There
are good people who will say it S a discredit to Newark. The
market consists of two long, narrow alleyways. thanked by stalls,
through which on busy market days crowds of people joste and
push each other in ways that border on the indecent. Centre
Market ought to be one of the citys show places, but no Newarker
would take a stranger there.

physician.

and was informed hat you had left
the city to make a speech on Infant
Immortality"
THAT is a good one" replied the
physician, but 1 am not in that line
of business, and do not intend to usurp
the rights of the ministers
The relative strength of a nation
does not depend upon its navy, was
the conclusion reached by several mer
who were arguing the point in police
headquarters last week. 1t seemed
that several of the men were in sym
pathy with small and trained naviet
rather than large ones who had no

SECRET OF PASTORS SUCCESS
Writer Is of Opinion That Proper Man.
ner Has Much to Do With
the Matter.

The reason why good many min
listers Of fair ability are out of job
is because they do not want to visit,
because they are looking for church
that will fit their own notions rather
than trying to fit themselves to the
needs of church. 1t is true that
good many men do not know how to
call, they do not know how to behave
when they get into house, they do
not like 1t and will shirk it every
chance they get. Yet calling is the
secret of success in almost every par
ish today-not the same kind of call
ing in all places, but some kind IN
every place-and If our seminaries
had wisdom they would fit their stu
dents to do their work in the best
way, ia the only way in which it can
be done in the country at least Give
one year to sermon-making and three
years to making gentlemen in the
truest sense of that word. Thus send
out men who can adapt themselves to
the needs of the place where they are
called, and can thus serve human
souls, who, being as they are, want
to be better The problem of the
country church is to be solved by the
pastor rather than the preacher
