But now there are plenty Of signs
that the "shanks' mare of the old days

walks to the White House on cabinet

walk To their offices and home again.

run, he really walks. instead of riding.

Everything in church work is Men

woman will find much of the inspirational
In walking. Petty worries and cares drop
of as the miles glide unnoticed by. Little
by little you grow sympathetic to the gen.
eral scheme of things; you find the world
is not really such a harsh little prison
that your fellowman is a pretty good sor,
of chap after all: that things are not
going to the dogs. but quite the con-
trary. and that you've got an appetite
as is.
In the words of the good gray poet
old Walt Whitman. you have found your

walking will be the most popular of all
sports. AS in England. our roads will
be lined with CHEEKY mixers, spending
their vacations in hiking, and the auto
mobile will be relegated to its place as a
quick conveyer of persons who would
rather walk il they had the time.
Those who so far have been unable
owe their failure largely to the fact
that they didn't go about it right. In
the first place. it is necessary to get
into territory which you haven't
tramped through SO often that you
have got sick and tired of it. good
way to secure variety in your walks
is to hop q trolley to the rural dis
tricts and then strike out. In case
you haven't time for wandering about
the country till you strike another
village. where you can take the cars
home again. it may be advisable to
follow the trolley line on which you
have just travelled back to the city
again afoot. However, the incentive
to travel unfrequented paths Is better
spur to walking. 1t will give you a
pleasant es-in- the woods sort of
feeling that adds the spice Of adyen-
ture to the whole enterprise.
Another reason why walking is not
more popular is that next to no one
really knows how to walk. Out of 100
persons on whom ! made careful OBJ
servations in Lafayette Park one day
last week ] saw only six good walkers,
and not one excellent walker. That
this lack of ability to walk we'll is
common to both sexes is indicated by
the fact that of the hundred persons
observed fifty were men and fifty
women. The most serious faults which
these picked hundred men and women
displayed were a lack of decision and
energy in their stride and total dis
regard for all the characteristics of
good form.
But good walking is a graceful

two others, who, Befano said, mad
sawed bars and had hidden revolvers
over water pipes in readiness for

Bufano said, was for q trusty to get

lock him in or brain him with a piece

MATAWANS' POLICE CHIEFS DENT BADGES
IN FIGHT AND THEN ARREST EACH OTHER

MATAWAN, Oct 16.-John Mulsoff,
chief of police of Matawan borough,
and Alvin N. Lambertson, chief Of
police of Matawan township have
had each other arrested. The trouble
between the two representatives of
the law began when Lambertson was
arrested in Matawan borough by
Mulsoff.
Matawan's chief of police claims
that Matawan townships chief of
police was drunk and that he used
abusive and insulting language to the
matawan people. Bartenius Tice, a
policeman of Matawan, started to ar
rest Lambertson, but the township
chief was evidently too much for
Tice. He sent for assistance, and
Mulsoff, who, besides being chief of
police, is a barber, came to Tees as
sistance on the double quick. A
struggle ensued between the three
policemen, and when it ended Lam
bertson was handcuffed and locked
