 Today's march from Princeton to this city, about ten miles. was de- scribed by the suffragettes as easy in comparison with the arduous 27 miles hike of yesterday. It was accom- plished in a little over two hours of actual Walkinug.
 A dozen Princeton and Lawrence vile students escorted the Pilgrims into Trenton, where they arrived at two o'clock, and where the army spent the night.

A Vacation Every Day.
From the Chicago Post.


Prof. Edward Lee Thorndike of Column
bia University believes that the individual
needs no vacation beyond what he can
make for himself out. of the margin of
each working day. He sets forth ten
rules, of which one dictates all sleep pos
sible. another the rout of all physical ills.
a third the freedom from worry and a
fourth the substitution of a new thing
when interest in an old one flags.
The director of a tremendous combina-
ton of capital never takes a vacation eX-
cept when business calls him from New
York to Europe. Even then his restless
mind probably keeps him at work while
on the steamer. He is on the bride path
in Central Park at o'clock every morn
ing and has the time before noon filled
with interviews with constituents. To
save time he had a BARRIERS chair installed
him when the razor does not interfere.
After luncheon he returns to his office for
an hour and then spends the rest of the
day in gymnasium and in the open. He
goes to bed at o o'clock.
This mans position which is complex,
has never been understudied. Moreover,
three heads of departments have been in
fiuenced into the same routine.
Take vacation every day" he urges.
THE man who doesn't gets little ply steal
advantage out of q months rest and it is
another MONTH too. before he is back on
his stride in big affairs.
Worthy Of consideration, that is, but
not possible for the many. Exercise We
need and may get In limited opportunities
daily. Prof. Thorndikes rules, too, are
reasonable and helpful. but the theory is
advanced that the daily vacation idea
might be followed principally to make the
prolonged vacation worth while.

Diminishing Veterans.

From the Philadelphia Press
There is a net reduction of 31,SOf from
the pension list in the last year. In spite
of additions by special act of Congress
and bv more liberal conditions in the law,
the pensioners continue to decline In num-
ber. There are 100. 1J2 less than were on
the rolls in 1902. though Congress mas
opened the penSion gates wider ana Wlu-
er and the annual cost of pensions. whicn
has been showing a little falling Oft. will
be 500. 100000 more for 1914 than in 1918,
according to present estimates. III the
death angel continues 20 be as BUSY Win
the veterans az he has been. this 1914 eS-
innate will probably prove to be exces-

The last surviving soldier or the war OF
the revolution died in 1869, eighty ight

Value of Social Centers.
From the Ohio State Journal.

rom the ONO State journal.
One thing that we can hope from social
centers is broad-mindedness. Where
neighbors get together and discuss mat
ters of public veal they soon find out
that they are all for the same thing, and
all they differ about is method, and that
begins to dwindle. Those Sunday night
meetings at the Trinity Parish House have
discussed all phases of social. political,
economic questions, with a most excellent
spirit. There have ben wide differences
of opinion. but they did not detract from
the good temper of the attendants.
Some day these social center confer
ences may take the place of political
meetings. where one side is upheld and
listened to by one side. A political meet
ing is a mex parte affair. where, as a gen.
eral thing. only half the truth is told. The
old-tme political meeting is dying out.
People are already boasting that they
don't attend political meetings.
The spoils system is the most powerful
support of the ex parte political meeting
That provides for the selfish side of poll
tics which the boss manages. That re-
ceived a heavy blow when President Taft
put 5000 postmasters on the classified
list 1t will get the body blow when it
is driven out of state and county politics.

Chess and billiards are not satisfactory
games to compare. Chess is an illustra-

is an accomplishment of both mind and

can play it, anywhere and any time, ac-
cording to his knowledge whereas one
may know billiards to the last carom

A Priests Aeroplane Flight.

From the Manchester Guardian.
Father Audral. a French priest serving
with the troops in Morocco. is the first
clergyman to travel by aeroplane to min
lister to dying man. He was busy in the
hospital at Laghouat when young aero
naut, Lieut.. Bregard, entered his room
and asked him if it We're possible for him
to come with him by aeroplane in order
to give the sacrament to a dying officer
who had been shot by the enemy. The
priest at once fetched the sacrament.
and in a few minutes was speeding
through the air. piloted by the young
lieutenant. The two were heartily cheer
ed by the soldiers when they descended
in the French camp. The wounded man.
when told he must die. had said: ITO die
is nothing. but to die without the conso-
lations of religion is sad Lieut.. Bregard
had bent down and whispered that he
would fetch a priest by aerOplane. The
diving man was still alive when the priest
arrived. He made his confession and re-
ceived the communion and a few minutes
afterward died.
