GIVES CREDIT TO
WOMEN FOR PURE
FOOD
DR.. H. W. Wiley, Government
Expert, Tells Montclair Audi
ence Nations Progress by Diet.

The Ethical Effect of the Food and
Drug Act" was ne subject OF a dis
course by DIR. Harvey w. Wiley, direc-
tor OF tho bureau of chemistry, of the
department of agriculture, at Wash
i%nston, y. c., in Unity Church., Mont
clair, last nisht. This was the fifth in
unity course on THE Problems Of
Today" now being held in that church
every sunday evening.
DR., Wiley said the pure food law was
enacted to prevent dishonesty and pre-
vent crime. ~ do not believe that laws
will mako men honest" said the doc
tor, but ii can make honesty respec-
table and crime dangerous. This is Il
theme which can properly be discussed
In the house of God. 1t is not the bust
ness of the church alone to save souls,
but to instill the ethics of honesty into
the citizens of the community; feed
the poor and needy. which brings the
pure food law promptly before the
people.
we are what we are" he said. be
cause of what our ancestors have
eaten. Those nations lead in progress
that arc well dieted with the best OF
lOOu. WHEN We pfOLSCA lIt uiub sup
ply. We safeguar the citadel of what
can build up the system of u citizens.
The food and drug act laws were passed
because it was a condition that con-
fronted US and not a theory.
ut was dishonesty in preparing foods
and poisoning them with adulteraeed
drugs hat led TO the passage OF the
act Men desired gain, not in an ethi-
cal and moral way, but adulterated for
gain. This is a serious matter. II q
mar commits a murder the law viii
punish him, but it Will not stop muir
der. The drug act works the, same
way. Educated public opinion all along
the line will bring honesty in business.
II have never heard this country
spoken well of abroad, except for Its
wealth, energy and enterprise. In no
country In the world are so many MUIR
ders committed as there are in his
country. and when you look into the
records we have less punishment.
Ninety-fve per cent. of murderers
escape death or go free, or escape with
light punishment. We should not be
proud Of this country just because it
is rich"

Newark Taxpayers Association on
Saturday night selected John J. Muir

after the legal interests Of the asso-
citation. The step is one of the most

ters pertaining to the alleged incon-

payers of the borough equitable as
sessments. Investigations to date show
that the private property-owier pays
in proportion considerably more than
the owners of large factories. MIR.

the matter and suggest a means where
by equity can be obtained.
Mr.. Murphy is a graduate of the
parochial school connected with the
Church of the Holy Cross, Harrison.

The ltey. Jesse Hurlbut. district
superintendent of the Methodist Con
ference Society, preached yesterday
morning on ''rho Traits of the Ideal
Church" He designated these traits
as vitality. loyalty, Fellowship and
activity" He said. In part:
when anyone approaches a city upon
the continent of Europe almost the
first object that attracts his attention
is the cathedral rising above all the
other buildings. It is different in this
rapidly progressing country, where the
taller buildings of trade hide the
churches.
we must bear in mind, however,
that it is not the church which is the
sacred casket in which the rare jewel
Of righteousness is kept. The true seat
u religion is, as described by the
Apostle st. Paul, in the tabernacle of
the human heart.
"A church without vitality in 1t Is as
dismal as the ship of the dead in Cole
ridges ancient Mariner" Tho church
in which the members are not imbued
with the spirit of loyalty is like an
army of m~ercenaries who fight for pelf
instead of principle. To make the
church q potent factor, fellowship,
which means love for one another,
must prevail. In the church of activity
every member does his or her share Of
work. No individual, either minister
or layman, is made to be the exclusive
burden-bearer but everyone is a BAN
n~er-bearcr. God grant that this
church. in the seventy-hye years to
come. may be the true type of such a
church."
The Rev. John II. Timbrell. the pas
tor Of the church. last night delivered
an historic sermon.

CITY MAY HAVE TO
DEFEND ANOTHER
SUIT FOR DAMAGES
More Litigation for East Orange
Promised as Result of
Artesian Wells.

The city of East Orange will shortly
be called upon 10 act as defendant in
another large suit for damages as a re-
suit of driving extra artesian wells in
the area at White Oak Ridge, where it's
large water plant is located. The city
has been called upon to answer several
water suits of late.
The new suit is to be started, it is
announced. by John Ward on behalf
of Mrs. Mary Ward, who owns a large
tract in Livingston township, and part
of which the city just now Is trying to
obtain by condemnation proceedings.
Should the three commissioners named
by Chief Justice Gummere reach a de-
cision next Friday as to the amount
should be paid an acre, it Is said the
suit viii be started anyway.
The Wards intend to ask for dam
ages amounting to $4,000. This action
is brought about because 1t has been
claimed by the owners that there was
plenty of water on the land until the
city started ON it's new group Of wells,
and then the supply diminished rapid
ly. The city does not believe more
than 500 an acre should be paid for
the property, and have secured expert
testimony to this effect, while the
Wards are making the statement that
$40O an acre should be provided for by
the commission
John r. Reinhardt has also filed pa
pers in a suit for $4,000, and makes
the same claims as the Meekers re-
garding the diversion of water from
his farm In Livingston Township. It
is probable that Jerome y, Gedney
and Edward M. Collie win act as coun-
sci for the city in the suits because
City Counsel Borden d. Whiting had
connection with the litigants be-
fore he was connected with the city.
