DEFINES RIGHTS OF VOTERS
Mayor Upholds Order Keeping
Police 100 Feet from Polls.

ITO allow the police to say who may
and who may not vote, or TO interfere to
prevent people from voting, would render
our elections no longer free. and free
elections are the cornerstone OF our sys-
tenn OF government" Thus wrote Mayor
Gaynor TO DR.. Nathan Ratnofr. Of No. 240
East Broadway, who had written TO pro-
test against tho order OF Police Commits
sioner Waldo that the police on Election
Day should not go within 100 feet OF the
polling places unless TO preserve the
peace. 1t is the same order under which
the police worked year ago.
DR.. Ratnoff suggested that there would
be a lot OF fraudulent voting unless the
police were In the polling places. Sub
stantially all OF the fraudulent voting
here in years gone by" wrote the Mayor.

patronage of policemen stationed In the

Mayor Gaynor spoke of the evil OF In

To avoid such an overwhelming evil our
law makes every man sovereign on
Election Day. He cannot be interfered

some act In breach Of the peace The
only way TO stop him from voting is to
challenge his vote as unlawful. This any
election official, watcher or citizen may
do. When that Is done he cannot vote
until he take the prescribed oath, and In
that way swear In his vote. as the phrase
is. II he take the oath no one can stop

Information for the Autumn
Bride and Her Gift
Giving Friends and
Relatives.

One OF the little booklets issued by the
College OF Agriculture at Cornell Uni
| versity gives some excellent points about
furniture. which no autumn bride or the
loving relatives and friends who are
| planning to give her furniture as
wedding gift can afford to disregard.
"Bvery piece Of furniture should serve
some useful purpose" begins the article
surely a point to be kept I'm mind, as
, many tormented bride can testify. THE
construction should be strong and honest.
and the shape OF each piece should be a
frank statement Of its use. The material
OF which any given piece is made Is OF
secondary importance to the straightfo--
wardness Of the design. Thus, through
all combinations Of oak, mahogany, wal
nut or pine, with leather, tapestry or
cane, a chair should Immediately Iro-
claim that II is made for the purpose OF
receiving human weight In sitting post
ure, with comfort and with stability.
Most furniture as bookshelves, chairs,
tables or beds, must bear up under weight
or pressure of some kind; therefore, the
upright structural members should be APP
proximately straight. since force, unless
interfered with, tends to move In straight
lines. A piece Of furniture showing an
deliberately bowed and curved stcu 't'irs
should be viewed with suspicion; It's
fancy shape is often obtained at the ex-
psnse of strength.
mo piece of furniture is stronger than
Its weakest Joint. A chair may have legs
that are thick enough to be used as porch
posts. and II the seats and the legs are
not united by sound joints the chair Is
inefficient and gives the lie in It's seam
ing strength. II one tries the experiment
Of joining horizontal and vertical
strip OF wood securely at single point,
he will discover that this Is well-nigh i'm
possible. Bracing Of some kind must
therefore be used. Drawer, slides. the
arms and rungs Of chairs. the apron on
a table, are In reality braces.
Amy well constructed piece Of fur
niture containing drawers therefore IL
expensive as compared with piece hay-
ing none. This Is reasonable, as every
drawer is made up OF at least FIVE places
of wood and requires considerable
amount of work. An attempt to econo-
mize on such piece of furniture. whether
desk, bureau or chiffonier, will provo I'M
wise. as the drawers in cheap furniture
sag when opened and are likely TO stick
and to slide in and out unevenly at tho
corners.
mo one knew better than the Colonial
folk the relation between structure and
form. It is not because Colonial furniture
h old that 1t is valuable, but because II
is sound In workmanship. normal In form.
and made of a kind Of mahogany that Is
not on the market to-day. The decoration
applied by the Colonial makers to their
furniture, whether carving. inlay, mould
ings, turnings. or decorative grain, with
few exceptions enhanced the effect and In
no way distorted the natural shape,
Cherry and birch were used for legs and
for uprights requiring strength, mahog-
any being too brittle for this purpose.

OF davenports and other parts showing
