New Jersey Motorists Are
Pleased with the Stickel Bill

license fee. No autoist should begrudge
this expense to help clear the States
name"
l.. j. Wyckoff, Essex Auto Company
TT will be a big benefit to hotel
men of the State as well as other bus
mess interests, but the autoists should
not stop until a federal automobile bill
is passed"
W. F. Ackor, Jersey Motor Car Com
pany-"Bully news. The autoists
should give Colonel Colgate a big send
off. He has accomplished wonders"
Herbert L. Boehm. representing c..
T. Silver & Company of New York-"A
good thing. And should ave beer
passed years ago. The new law will
mean a tremendous boom to New Jer-
sey real estate and hotels as we'll as
automobile dealers"
Similar optomistic views were ex-
pressed in every branch of the trade
while Individual motorists all seemed
to be well pleased Notwithstanding the
fact hat the amendments will mean
an increase in the license fee. This
increase which amounts to sc per cent.
will necessitate one paying $3.50 for a
car now ealing for IS and SIS for a
present $40 license.
The law goes ffto effect upon its sig
nature by the Governor and will prob
ably not effect those who have already
paid their license.
With the passage of the Stickel auto
mobile bill comes an interesting story
from Trenton whereby Davy Baird and
Senator Read, of Camden. lost their
chance by a faint heart. 1T appears
that the Senator from Camden. who
really had the only cause for complaint
against the passage of the Stickel bill
wanted the State to take over the
White Horse turnpike through Camden
County and he had Mr.. Baird's support
in the matter. The gentlemen pre-
scented their grievances to the auto
mobilists who readily agreed that
Camden received no benefit from the
~autoists of Philadelphia and other
Pennsylvania points directly over the
White Horse turnpike to Atlantic City
and consequently would be willing fo-
the State to take over his road. The
automobile Senators agreed to vote
for Mr.. Reads bill providing that he
would vote for reciprocity but the
Camden man voted nay, helping to de-
feat the bill originally. Efforts were
made to get Mr.. Read to reconsider
but of no avail and 1t is also said thai
Mr.. Baird could not be induced to use
his influence.
The result will be that the White
Horse turnpike will still be Camden's
burden but no blame can be laid &c
the motorists who agree that there
may be some grounds for complaint
and was the only reasonable argument
against reciprocity. 1t is predicted,
however, that if Mr.. Reads bill will
ever come up it will have the support
of the automobile interests.

The passage Of the Stickel automo-
bile bill has gladdened the hearts of
the New Jersey automobilists and will
no doubt prove a boon to the motor
car industry In this State. Every one
seems pleased and h question Of the
amendments calling for a fifty per
cent. increase in the license fees.
which were lacked onto the bill in the
Senate, seems of little consideration. A
few perhaps who expect to do little or
no touring outside of New Jersey, may
feel aggrieved at the prospect of pay
ing more for the privilege of using
their cars, out these are in so great a
minority that few could be reached by
Star reporters.
The members of the automobile
trade, who are most vitality interested.
are jubilant and predict a great revival
of trade not only in their direct line
but IN other businesses as well. The
principal good that will be accom-
plished, they say, will be the wiping
out of the stigma that has been cast
upon the State on account of the FIRE.
linghuysen bill.
That the new bill will become q
law upon it's signature by the Gov
ernor, and there seems absolutely nc
doubt but that he will sign it. will
erase all prejudice against New Jersey
on the part Of the automobile manu-
facturers of the country. may be
Judged from a letter received by w.
Fl. Ellis yesterday from Charles Cliff
ton. treasurer of the Pierce-Arrow
Motor Car Company. of Buffalo. Mr.
Clifton shows his appreciation in the
following phrase:
IT certainly congratulate you. gen.
tlemen. on a successful workout OF
your reciprocity bill. and If 1t is to be
signed by the Governor and become
a law. l certainly congratulate all con-
cerned in New Jersey and New Jersey
herself upon the accomplishment OF
an act of Justice and fair dealing
Letters of a like vein were received
by other dealers in response to tele-
grams announcing the glad tidings to
the motor car manufacturers.
Local automobile dealers, reached by
Star reporters, expressed themselves
thus:

The New Jersey Automobile and

the Aphawa County Club for another
year at least ana will probably open
the resort again this summer. The big
New Jersey club has begun negotia-
lions for a new country club at Noun

able to finish this until too late in the
summer. hence the probability that the

While some commission men are un.

Many people get the idea that coop.

NEGLECT TRAINING OF GIRLS
Urgent Need Of Industrial Teaching 10
Shown by Action Of Students at
Roswell, New Mex.

Seventy.tive Of the high school girls
in the city Of Roswell. New Mexico.
petitioned the superintendent OF city
schools asking that they be excused
from taking domestic science. They
stated. in effect. that they believe
dishwashing to be degrading and not
conducive to mentality; that they are
not accustomed to such work at home
and that they do not care to learn
the art Of cooking.
That these girls do not do such
work at home" is perhaps unfortunate
and 1t is all the more important that
they learn how to do the common
everyday work at school, since they
have nevef been taught at home, says
the Texas Ranch and Farm. That
"dishwashing" or any other work in
maintaining the home and making life
pleasant for their parents should be
regarded as degrading is perhaps not
their fault, since they have never
been taught the dignity OF labor and
the opportunities for happiness in
keeping the home in order. It shows
how the training Of our girls is be-
Ing neglected In the home and ex.
plains the urgent need OF industrial
training In our public schools such as
ia given in the Roswell city schools.
Whether these girls are fortunate
~ enough to have servants to do
the degrading ~ work that they con.
slider antagonistic to mentality when
they are responsible for a home, or
whether they must do the work them.
selves. they are apt to regret their
aversion to the course In domestic
science. They do not know the ad.
vantages this knowledge gives in
meeting the trials and vicissitudes OF
life; they do not realize the trials,
cares and responsibilities for those
who must make or wreck a home.
To make our schools efficient In
qualifying boys and girls for the re-
sponsibilities OF everyday life, teach.
ers must have the cooperation OF
parents. Children are not capable OF
deciding what they should study and
how they should be trained and when
parents repudiate the teacher because
the course OF study does not conform
to the child's idea OF mentality" our
social. economic and moral institu.
tons will be weakened.
