HITS IRV|NGTON
POSTAL SERVICE
Trolley Facilities. Too, Are
Again Scored by Town I'M
provement Association.

Further criticism of the postal SER
vice and trolley facilities in Irving
ton was freely expressed by mem
bers of the irvington improvement
Association at their meeting last
night in the Drake building. Both
subjects have been cause for much
comment and discussion at nearly
every meeting of the improvers.
Secretary J. Edward Delaney be-
gan the bombardment on the postal
authorities. declaring that postal
cards, announcing last nights meet
ing, had been taken to the Irvington
office at 10 a. m. yesterday but were
not delivered in ract, would not be
delivered until this morning. He
moved that tho responsible authori-
ties receive a vote of censure. The
motion prevailed, after long dis
cussion, with the amendment that
the facts In this specific instance be
forwarded to Washington.
1t was reported that the reason for
the non-delivery of the cards was
due to the lateness of their arrival,
coupled with an influx of tax bills,
which overtaxed the capacity of the
mail force despite the addition Of
two extra carriers, and necessitated
but one delivery yesterday. This ex-
PLANTATION did not appease the i'm
proVers, who declared that Postmas-
ter Frank j. Book had promised two
full deliveries daily, and that there
should be a sufficient force of mail
carriers to get mail out promptly.
That the matter of poor trolley
facilities should be brought to the
attention of the Public Utility Com
mission was the opinion Of w. d.
Shaw. He declared the service that
Irvington receives is frank and rifle"
despite the recent reply from the
trolley company to the town officials
that Irvington is getting all the serv-
ice 1T deserves.
Informed that the Clinton Hill
Improvement Association, of this
city, is about to register an objec-
ton with the company, the i'm
proVers decided to send a committee
to work in conjunction with the inn
provers in Newark. The commit
tee named consists of MIR. Shaw, Mr..
De Lancy and Walter S. Gray. The
main cause of complaint is the
claim that residents of Irvington are
held up SO long in an attempt to
board a trolley in Newark during
the rush hours.
Mr.. Blumerhein made an unsuccess-
full attempt to have the association
go on record in favor OF stopping the
general distribution in Railways, let
ter boxes, porches, etc, of all kinds
of circulars and advertising matter.
The improvers were In favor of
regulating the distribution of this
matter, but would not vote to stop
1t altogether. 1t was claimed that
a State law requires all circulars to
be placed in an addressed envelope
and Secretary De Lancy was in
structed to secure copy of the
provisions of the law.
At suggestion of ]. L. H. Thorn
son, the town authorities will be
asked to clean and keep clean all
the crosswalks.
The date for the first annual ami
versary smoker was set for Friday
evening, October 80 1t will be held
in the Irvington Hotel.

PROBERS DECIDE
ON CENSURE FOR
J VILLAGE POLICE
No Serious Charges Result
from Investigation in South
Orange.

Although he failed to agree in
several instances with his colleagues
who conducted the probe, Edward A.
Marks, chairman of the police COM
mittee of the South Orange Village
Board of Trustees. finally added his
signature to the report on search
ing investigation of the village police
department, conducted for several
months past. and at a meeting of the
village board last night recommended
that the document, already signed by
the other two members. Dudley w.
Figgis and Harry J. Schnell, be ap-
proved.
The board by a unanimous vote
accepted the report, after Mr.. Schnell
had seconded the recommendation of
Mr.. Marks. The action of the chair
man of the committee. while q sur
prise to the large audience that filled
the chamber, results in the continu-
ance of the unbroken harmony that
has marked every meeting of the
present governing body.
The investigation was begun in
July IL was at a meeting of the
trustees on July 20 that the police
committee presented a report to the
effect that because of rumors more
or less prevalent to the effect that
the police department had not been
all 1t should be- 1t favored conducting
the inquiry, the purpose of which, il
was stated. was to discover by a
searching investigation what, If any,
foundation there may have been for
the gossip. No mention was made
at the time concerning the nature of
the gossip.
The committee announced at that
time that besides examining the mem
bers of the police department, op-
portunity would be afforded any citi-
zen of the village to tell, under oath,
any facts pertinent to the inquiry,
in the hope that there might be no
reason for any such rumors or Cos
sip in the future, certainly as APP
plying to anything that may have
occurred in the past.
Only the members of the police
force were before the committee,
no other citizens furnishing informa-
ton at the committee meetings,
which were all conducted behind
closed doors.
The report adopted last night, while
rejecting somewhat on the efficiency
Of the department, shows that ma
iority of the more serious rumors
prevalent were without foundation
in fact. The committee will make
several changes in the rules of the
department which are to be brought
lp-to- date. If the report of the COM
mittee is carried out none of the
members of the police force will re-
,eive more severe treatment for past
iffenses than to be censured.
IN presenting the report Mr. Marks
told of how the committee had gone
cry carefully and searchingly into
he rumors, questioning every MEM
oer Of the department individually
inder oath.

Children's Organizations
Condemn Issuing of
Sunshine Society Charter

The Children's Aid Society and the
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Children has adopted resolutions
condemning the issue of charter to
the International Sunshine Society
and asking Governor Fielder to annul
the charter. One clause in the reso-
luton is:
I'VE are convinced that the quar-
rel is not one between two equally
reputable organizations, that is, the
New Jersey Commission for the Blind
and the International Sunshine So
ciety, but that 1t is more like a con-
tention between a judge and a pris-
oner, as the New Jersey Commission
for the Blind is a fully authorized
State department, while the Interna-
tional Sunshine Society is discred-
tied private organization"

LADIES'! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Crandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
will Know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded, gray hair to its nat
ural color dates back to grandmoth-
er's time, She used it to keep her
hair beautifully dark. glossy and
abundant Whenever her hair fell
out or took on that dull, faded or
streaked appearance, this simple
mixture was applied with wonderful
effect.
But brewing at home Is mussy and
out of date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a 50-cent bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous old
recipe, which can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair and is splendid for dand-
run, dry, feverish, itchy scalp and
falling hair
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it
has been applied. You simply dampen
a sponge or soft brush with 1t and
draw this through your hair taking
one strand at a time BY morning
the gray hair disappears, and after
another application or two 1t becomes
beautifully dark, glossy apd abund-

s-H0UR Law PROPOSED
Col. Hoffers in the Pacific Coast Man
facturer Has Sounded Note of
Warning.

Among the initiative measures to
come before the voters of the state
at the general election next year, will
be one which, if passed, amends the
state constitution so that it will be
unlawful for any man, woman or
child to work more than eight hours
day or more than forty-eight hours
in any one week, in any business,
trade or profession.
Attorney General Crawford recent
ly prepared the ballot title for this
measure, which is backed by the Uni
versal Eight-hour League. This year
it was sought to have the measure
initiated and voted on November 4,
but this was made impossible through
ruling of the Supreme Court to the
effect that initiative measures could
not be voted on at the special election.
The ballot title is self-explanatory:
"Initiated by Mrs. Jean Bennett
on behalf of the Universal Eight-hour
League. Universal constitutional
eight-hour amendment. Its purpose
is to add section to article Is Of
the Oregon Constitution, prohibiting
any man, woman, boy or girl from be-
ing employed more than eight hours
in any one day or more than forty
eight hours in any one week in any
trade, business or profession, or on
any farm, or in domestic service, or
in any kind of employment whatever,
skilled or unskilled, mental of physi-
cal, within the state of Oregon. This
law applies to children and other rel
atives of employers"
