In speaking. to 300 women gradu-
ates who had trained themselves for
different professions President Ed
ward James of the University of Il
linois said:
'The woman who chooses the ca
reer of marriage when the opportunity
offers itself or when she makes it for
herself, as every woman can, is choos-
ing a highway to social service which
is far ahead of all teaching or legal or
medical service she can possibly rem
der to society"
That is as may be, Mr.. College Pres
ident. If you were woman you
would know that the opportunity to
marry the kind of man you would
like to have for husband and for the
father of your children doesn't always
present itself. Likewise that there are
tens of thousands of women who have
not been able to capture a husband of
any sort, although they have done
their level best. Also, if you are hon
est, you must admit that there are
many, many women married, and whose
marriages are crime against society.
It is the custom to get maudlin
drunk on sentimentality when you talk
to girls, and to advise them to marry,
and to maunder on about the beauty
and glory Of wifehood and mother
hood; but all of us in our sober senses
know that whether wifehood or moth
erhood is beautiful and glorious de-
pends altogether on how woman is
fitted for the job and how she pulls it
off.
Undoubtedly a good wife and mother
is the noblest work of God, and such
one performs a great service to soci
ETY.. On the other hand, a mean wife
and mother is the DEVILS first lieu
tenant, and the harm that such one
does to the world is incaluculable.
If we have had mothers who have
given us a George Washington ant
an Abraham Lincoln, let us also re
feet that we have mothers who give
us our Gyp the BloOds and Lefty
Louies, so there's no use in raising
any monuments to motherhood unit
we find out what sort of a product
| it has turned out. Certainly tn,
mothers of the hundreds of gratfers
blackmailers, thieves and white slav
ers in the world have done no service
to society for which the balance of us
need be grateful to them.
As for there being anything par
ticularly meritorious in a woman mar
rying, that also depends upon the spirit
in which she does it and the sort of a
wife she makes. The woman who mar.
ries a man for love and because she
feels that he is her real mate, and who
bends her every energy of mind and
body to loving service to him and ia

New District
Passenger Solicitor

N. S. Longaker was today appointed
District Passenger Solicitor of the Penn
sylvania Railroad with Offices at Will
mington, Delaware.
The appointment of Mr.. Longaker,
which was confirmed at a meeting of the
Board of Directors in Philadelphia to-
day comes as a part of complete reorgan-
ization of the Passenger Department of
the Pennsylvania Railroad.
The territory served by the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad is to be divided into
zones and each division officer charged
with the responsibility of insuring the
comfort and convenience of the passen-
gers as well as developing passenger bus
mess in his zone. The plan also provides
that all complaints and inquiries in that
district shall be centered in the Division
Passenger Agent s office, and the public
made aware of where they can go for in
formation or assistance.
Mr.. Longaker was born in Allentown,
Pa, in 1876. He entered the service Of
the Pennsylvania Railroad in the Passeng-
or Department in 1900. He was made
Baggage Route Agent in 1902, and in 1904
was appointed Travelling Passenger
Agent.

The Press-World Missionary

If John the Baptist were to bring his
message to earth in the year 1913 instead
of 81 A. D. or thereabouts, in place of
the camel s hair clothing, the girdle of
leather, and the insect diet, with which
the sacred writer's have so romantically
pictured him, we should look for man
clothed in an ordinary business suit, with
his vest pockets well supplied with pen
ellis and pens, and means of sustenance
not so meagre as to be worthy OF record.
In lieu of the consecrated human voice
which penetrated the Judaean wilderness,
with the civilization resulting from the
intervening nineteen centuries, we GER
tainlv should turn to the press for the
expected news, and if it were not ex-
pected we most likely would not learn
of it at all if we did not read the current
periodicals. The press is, today, the
world missionary.

CLAY DEPOSITS NEAR NEWARK

We find by consulting the surveys that
our own potterys furnish us with about
four-fifths of the pottery consumed in the
U. s., while it is estimated that in 1875 |
the proportion of domestic homemade |
pottery:, production was only about l5 !
per cent Of the consumption. The large |
increase has been brought about by the
earnest efforts of the American potters
to improve their wares and not only
make them equal, but superior to the i'm
ported. While this is true of the pot
ter, we cannot give him all the credit, as
we find the clay men working just as
hard to improve the quality of his clays,
and other materials, such as Spars, Flint,
ETC., all of which must be free from all
foreign materials to make perfect and
speckless ware.
The presentation of these facts and fig
ures is suggested by a study of the work
that has been taken in hand by the New
ark China Clay Co. This is a high grade
clay, well adapted to the production Of
<
the washing and refining must be perfect.
Mr.. Miller, who is regarded as one of the
chief authorities of this country in regard
to such matters, was selected to build
the plant and open up the clay banks.
According to the u. S. Geological Survey
away back during Revolutionary War
days, there was considerable develop
ment of Delaware clays for commercial
use, such as pottery and fire brick. From
1880 to 1890 Delaware was up among the
leaders in potters clay (kaolin). Since
then this industry has been on the de-
cline Now we only have two or three
plants refining clay for potters use. This
is due largely to the depicting Of the de-
posits, which generally run small and
also to the many failures due to not
knowing how to handle or refine the clay
properly. We find in the states now in
the lead in this line have taken up a study
of Chiramics at the State Colleges for the
purpose of aiding in the development, or
rather, encouraging the development Of
the clays and kaolin. Ohio has done a
great work. Pennsylvania started year
ago. Thus the prospector or the Real
Estate owner has access to this depart
ment, analysis, tests, etc., free of charge,
made not only by chemist, but by one
well up in refining clay and its uses, par
ticularly Chramics, china, porcelain, pot
terry, etc.
