CONTEST IS ON
Young Folks Should Be En-
couraged TO Enter the Bat
tie of Wits.

That the Proverb Contest, as con-
Quoted by the Evening Star, is recog-
nized as an educational feature, es-
pecially for the young, is attested by
the fact that after the close of every
contest we are in receipt of numerous
letters from men and women, high in
standing and intelligence, commend
ing this form of home entertainment
and testifying to the enjoyment de-
rived from the study of the proverbs.
Such a contest cOmpels concentra-
ton of thought, singleness of purpose
and fosters the spirit to excel, all of
which are traits that should be en-
couraged in the young The careful
study that must be given to the
proverbs causes them to be assimi-
lated by the mind, and these apt and
trite sayings have been known to
recur to persons at one or more of the
crises in life and to turn the trend
of affairs for the better.
We all know and use some of these
proverbs nearly every day. Such as,
for instance: Look before you leap"
"A bird in the hand is worth two in
the bush," ETC., etc, but the Evening
Stars Book of Proverbs contains
thousands of others that are just as
apt and just as trite as these, and a
conscientious study of them will ac-
quaint one with the kernels of wis
dom of all the ages.
Besides the educational feature OF
the proverb contest which is now in
| operation in the Evening Star, the
! possibility of financial reward for eX-
cellence must not be lost sight of
Nearly $4,000 in cash will be dis
| tributed to 100 of the most success
| full contestants. The first prize is nc
| less than $500; second prize, 5000;
third prize 5000, and other prizes, 10t
| in all, ranging from $3.50 down to SIS
and, while these rich prizes must be
held out as the golden incentive fol
work it cannot be denied that the
| effort and study required to win one
of the prizes is educational in the ex.
IRENE and the young folks should be
encouraged to contest 1t is a pas.

An exceptionally wide variety of
green" fish at very low prices is now
in the Centre Market. The quotations
are in each instance from two to three
cents less than last week. The only
exception in the sea food is In the
price asked for Holsters. These are
thirty-five cents pound as against
thirty last week. The increase is due
to normal conditions arising every
fall and reducing the supply available
for shipment.
There are no more soft shell crabs
shown The dealers say that few
may be had in the Wholesale market,
but the price is so great and the
crabs so small that it would not pay
to have any. Hard shell crabs are
still good and sell for fifty cents a
dozen.
Blueflsh of any size may be pur-
chased for fifteen cents a pound, while
striped bass has gone done to twenty
cents pound and sea bass to eigh-
teen. The smelts are trifle larger
than they were last week, but are
still small, They sell for twenty cents
a pound.
In spite Of the fact that the oyster
men along the south shore OF Long
Island are mourning the smallness of

NEW YORK, Oct. t5.-The case Of
Mrs. Lora Wagner, the latest
teacher mother to be refused leave
of absence for motherhood by the
Board of Education, developed two
opposing. but unofficial, views from
members of the board yesterday. City
superintendent Maxwell saw diff
culties in the path of Mrs. Wagner
on the ground that when finally it
becomes necessary for her to leave
her duties in the Tottenville (Staten
island annex of Curtis High School,
by her physicians orders. she will not
be technically Ill.
DR.. Ira S. Wiles, the board member
who has before upheld the cause Of
"teacher-mothers," took the unofficial
view that Mrs. Wagner's stand was
right.
In the meantime, until the case can
come before the board through the
board of superintendent. Mrs. Wag
ner proposes to continue her duties in

While most of the members Of the

Mrs. Wagner, of course, is not

view of a physician 1 claim this to
be a perfectly normal and natural
condition. But there is no question
that she is physically incapacitated. ]

RECOUNT POINTS
To LEHLBACH AS
c. 0. P. NOMINEE
Believe Thirteen Remaining
Districts Won't Change Net
Gain Over Adams.

With but thirteen more districts to
be reeounted the nomination Of
Frederick r. Lehlbach as the Re-
publican candidate for Congress in
the Tenth district is practically as
sured. Lehlbaeh gained thirty-one
votes at the close of yesterdays ses-
sion of the County Board of Elec-
lions. His total gain over w. l.
Lincoln Adams thus far is 90 votes
a lead almost impossible to overcome
by Adams in the remaining districts.
Adams's only chance lies in the bal
lots that have been referred. This is
considered even by his supporters
slim one.
Adams has had 122 votes referred
and Lehlbach 49, If Chief Justsice
Gummere should allow large num-
Der of Adams votes to be counted and
then rejected a number of Lehl-
bach tallies, Adams might win
out This is highly improbable, as
the ballots referred for both candi-
dates are almost all of the same kind,
and bear the same defects.
On the face of the original returns
Mr.. Lehlbach lost by four votes to
Mr.. Adams, who was the choice OF
the big Four" in the county COM
mittee Iehlbach's gain of W onSetS

gives him an apparent majority of
SO votes. The recount was ordered
upon Mr.. Lehlbaeh's petition, and has
been In progress since a week ago
Monday It viii be concluded to-
night
The gain of Lehlbach last night
and Adams's loss were made on re-
ferred ballots. In the township of
Caldwell, Adams had nineteen re-
ferred to the court and Lehlbach
eight. The ballots in question con-
tanned the words yes" or mo" writ
ten at the bottom under a road APP
preparation referendum. The voters
should have drawn a line through the
printed words "yes" or mo" 1t is
thought likely that these ballots will
be counted by the chief justice be-
cause it seemed the fault of the
printer in placing the Eyes" and mo"
in the wrong place that led to the
voters errors. In Livingston the
same thing happened and Adams had
thirteen referred and Lehlbach five.
