HIS OWN STATE.

What effect will the political revers
al OF New Jersey have on the second
term intentions OF President Wilson?
Strongly Democratic in its Congres-
sional representation. and wholly
Democratic in State government. New
Jersey came back in good style last
Tuesday when the Republicans gained
control of both houses OF the legisIa-
ture and elected eight Of the twelve
members OF Congress. The present
delegation in Congress is ten Demo
Gratis and two Republicans.
This Is the Presidents own State.

the seven antitrust sisters were born.
Now that IL has refused 10 endorse
him or his policies. will the Demo.

cannot carry his own State? Well.

HELP THE BELGIANS
Stirring Appeal for Aid for the starry.
ING nation by the Dollar
Christmas Fund.

November 6. 1914.
TO the Editor OF the Intelligeneer.
Dear Sir-The cooperation of our
fellow eountrymen is asked to allevi-
ate the sufferings OF countless thou
sands of Belgians during the coming
winter. IL Is tremendous task. The
Dollar Christmas Fund. of which am
treasurer and which IL backed by
many well known public men. is work
ing with other organizations TO avert
starvation. which threatens many. IL
Is only by widespread and generous
support. and by personal appeals
through the press. that we can hope
To achieve success. To-day hundreds
OF thousandssof Belgians are homeless
ana penniless refugees. Thousands
OF civilians have met a miserable
death The whole apparatus OF eco
nomic life in field. factory or ONCE has
oeen wrecked and ruined so that the
future OF Belgium is altogether be-
yond prophecy.
mere are many ways in which you
can neip TO avert the agony OF suffer
ing which confronts helpless Belgians
curing the coming winter. You can
SEND a donation to our fund. OF you
can apply TO our secretary. Percy Bull
zen. 90 broadway. New York. for a
eohecung card He will be glad to
issue same to any responsible person
enclosing personal references. Clubs.
cnurches. chapels and societies can
ASSIST by writing for our collecting
INST. Entertainment committees and
places OF recreation may render great
neip by sending us the proceeds of
p
ways friends everywhere are assist
ing nobly.
All the money received win be ca
bled to Europe before December 90
IL Is our ambition to see that no ne
cessitous Belgian man. woman or child
IS destitute Of food or shelter at
Christmas.
Many heads of families have nro,n.
ised to pass the plate" for the home
less Belgians before dinner on Thanks
giving Day. A few cents from each
person would form a valuable contri.
button from many households. such
gift will surely be remembered by
the benehciaries long after the war
has ceased, and no mans Thanksgiv-
ing or Christmas Day will be the less
happy because in some cases the gift
may entail some measure of personal
sacrifice.
Let us remember that no little ma
ton In the worlds long history has
been more grievously stricken. yet no
people can raise their heads more
proudly from the dust. The crown of
thorns is still a crown!
Help us as best you can, and please
help quickly. Belgian needs are ap-
paliing. says a cablegram I have re-
eeiyed from London to-day, "and con-

which Jimmie brings upon his fellow
classmates are ludicrous and highly

wife.
