interest and yell-being of all con-
cerned.
In conclusion, want to emphatical-
ly reiterate the stand taken by the
West Hudson County Board of
Trade, that Harrison avenue and
North Fourth street are sadly in need
of repairs to their surfaces.
If any one doubts this statement
let them walk along Harrison ave-
nue. some day when it is slushy
and see the mud fly over the side
walks and on all the store win
dows, and sometimes going even as
high as the second story, whenever
one of the big auto trucks happens
along.
1t would be wise, however, before
taking this walk, to put on an old
suit of clothes, as 1 have personal
knowledge of quite number of in
stances where a lady's dress or a
good suit of clothes has been ruined
in this manner.
Thanking you for granting us so
much of your very valuable space,
L am, sincerely yours, ss

President West Hudson County

The next step would be for Con-
gress to pass law for the incorpora-
ton of Federal stock exchange, and
for it's regulation so as to get rid of
the gambling evils of the present sys-
tenn. Lawson promises to draft such
law.
The author gives a startling array
of figures to prove the need of such
regulation. He declares that the stock
gambling game is now costing the
American people $4,000, 000 900 a year
and the vast sum, now wasted and
stolen, might be saved to lower the
cost of living.
THE stock gambling game" he
says, burns money faster to pay ex-
penses than any other game on earth
than all other games combined-and
a thousand, yes. ten thousand times
faster. And the money to keep it
running comes from all classes of
the American people. Here are some
of the items:
"The market value of the member
ships in the New York Stock Exs
change is one hundred millions of
dollars. The interest on this amount
at per cent. is five millions

Richmond, Va, July ls.-At
the laboratory Of the State
Board of Health, seventeen
persons who have been bitten
by animals suspected of hydro
phobn are now under treatment.
This record equals that made
by the Department at any time
and indicates, according to
Health officers, that the number
OF rabid animals in the State is
not being reduced. Reports
are constantly being received
of animals which have shown
symptoms of rabies and re-
peated warnings promptly TO
tie up all animals that show
any signs of sickness have met
with little public support. IN
less precautions are taken,
there is danger of a widespread
prevalence of rabies.
