THIS is FIRE PREVENTION DAY.
JAMES SMITH, JR.
FOUNDED MARCH /, 1882.

This is Fire Prevention Day, not only in Newark
and the rest of New Jersey, but in New York city and
almost every upo-date State and municipality in the
country.
Governor Fielder by proclamation, fixed october
g. this year, as the occasion for giving general In
structions in methods as how best to prevent hres
and two years ago Mayor Haussling, in conjunction
with the combustibes bureau of the local fire depart
ment inaugurated plans whereby the people could be
the more firmly impressed with the small dangers
that exist in every household factory and store and
which, If guarded against and avoided, too ire
Quenty result in disastrous fires causing great loss OF
property and often human life.
The Newark plan consists of an exhibit OF various
articles and materials that ncautiously handled will
start fires and spread destruction. Captain O. Albert
Gasser chief inspector of the bureau or comDus-
tibes and fire risks is in charge of the exhibit In the
assembly room connected with fire department head
quarters the City Hail. He, with well-trained and
drilled members of the bureau inspection corps ex-
plain briefly, but in comprehensive manner the va
rous things spread neat before the visitors
view with short descriptions of what certain ngre-
dents represent and what may be expected II care Is
not exercised in the of them There are object
lessons reinforced by literature to educate and In
struct abundance and relics of fires are to be seen
and described.
Laws, ordinances rules and general directions
bearing upon fire prevention clearly explained,
and in brief the visitor is made to understand what
not to do or just what to do, the case may be- to
guard against the small fire, the spark that leads to
confia gratons.
Warnings given in such way that the listener
cannot fail to comprehend The peris that lie in the
careless use matches and the discarding OF lighted
cigarettes and cigar stumps pointed out and cases
of big fires emanating from these causes called to
mind.
Mayor Haussing's interest in the work being con-
Quoted for the prevention of fire in this city Is or the
deepest nature. He has kept in touch with the
ARRANGEMENTS for the observance of Fire prevention
Day here and at his suggestion Captain Gasser Will
probably continue the exhibit, with attendant insruc-
tive features for perhaps week. so that full oppor-
tunity to visit and may be taken advantage OF by
all.

HEALTH AND HAPPINESS
BY DIR. LEONARD KEENE HIRsHBE RG
A. B., NJ A., M D. Johns Hopkins

The reason that the men of many
weak nations adorn their chins with
boards is to enhance the look OF
strength, power and vigor which
health and a strong ancestry, should
have given them. Kings and mobiles
once did this to overawe their in
feriors. 1t is a truth today that
doctors, bankers, pedagogues and
others who seek homage and respect
from certain classes and groups in
society wear boards in order to thus
ennoble their chins.
European nations, indeed most
races, except the English and Amer
| leans, unconsciously pay tribute to
this idea by wearing whiskers and
mustaches. Women for the SAME
reason adorn their chins with artif-
cial beautifiers, black patches. dim
pies and thick enamel, or cover them
with wells, in order to make them
seem less weak than they are.
Public speakers, as a rule, talk at
the rate of about 150 words q minute.
THIS involves about 500 movements,
more marvellous and complicated
than the piston beats of a multiple
cylindered engine. Most of these
rapid-fire and agile actions are due
to enc muscle of the tongue-the
genio-glossus is its hard name--which
is linked like watch fob to the in
side of the chin.
Thus 1T is evident that il a mans
actions suit his words, and the words
flow from the chin-hence the pictur-
esque quaint and correct colloquial-
ism chin -music"--it follows that the
thoughts of child and young man
have q tendency to shape the Jaw.
Modern surgical discoveries have
made 1T a comparatively simple pro-,
cedure to operate upon the jaw, to
! change the shape at the will of the
| surgeon, to make strong and
| powerful, forward looking jaw, where
a receding jaw was before.
| Maladies of the chin often begin
| in ill-cared-for teeth and spongy,
| bleeding gums. Directly the teeth
are neglected, microbes and molds
| begin to burrow down into the lower
J jaw and infect the bone. Employees
in phosphorus factories, match-mak-
ing industries, arsenic wall papers
and paints often have a wicked-look-
ing ailment called necrosis" or
death to the affected segment of the
chin. All of these troubles are re-
lieved by change of occupation,
special medicines, life out of doors
and the grating of new bone from
piece of rib-bone in the place of
| the destroyed bone.

In an article on 1.-THE Hapsburgs"
in The Outlook for October 7, Pro-
fessor Albert Bushnell Hart of Har-
yard concludes by saying of the pres
erlt Emperor of Austria:
AS Emperor Francis Joseph has
grown old he has plainly desired that
he might never again have to go
through the agony of a national war.
A desire for peace has been mani
fest in the attitude of Austria to-
wards the gigantic Balkan question.
In 1878 the Austrian army lay still
and allowed the Russians to march
within sight of Constantinople, re-
ceiving for their reward the Turkish
provinces of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
1t has turned out to be a dear bar
gain. In 1912-13. while the Balkan
powers were at war, the Austrians
again lay passive upon their borders,
though a strong party thought the
time had come for war. In 1914 the
War party could no longer be held in.
A mysterious death years ago and an
assassination removed two heirs of
the Hapsburg throne.
In spite of all the efforts of a long
lifetime, the Emperor was obliged to
see his country in danger of a fear

A STRONG CHIN is YOUR MOST

Some men are lantern-jawed. Some

have improved with the ages, On the

mere remnant of the long lower jaw

of years ago. Still, before the days of

ascribed to the superiority of the ele-

Old fossil jaws of reptiles with jaw

tologists to have chins which re-
semble those of the human tribes.
Natures molding forces which
shaped the bones of those ancient
creatures were surely different from
the brain activities which formed the
chin of civilized man. The need or

the style and cut of his mandibles.
Another great factor that has worked
for better chins in the human kind

Association for Scientific Research.
has justly attributed the beauty of
the modern chin to the essential pref
erence of the women of 100000 years
ago and since for physical symmetry.
Even today there is among ourang-
outang and apes sort of simian
beauty which inclines to the femi-

fashionable world of today, as well as
the standards of health and physical

Schools Should Inspire Creative Spirit

The following is quoted from the
$500 prize letter in answer to the re-
markable series of articles by Ella
Frances Lynch, in criticism of our
present public school methods:
If Froebel should visit a modern
school looking for his child's garden,
he would find a school room with a
ring painted on the floor. Its paths
would be floor cracks; its flowers
would be chalked decorations; Its
teacher probably the poorest paid,
immature girl of the school system.
If | could persuade him to look in
upon a primary room he would find
nice little cells called desks instead
of tables and chairs accommodating
that God-given activity which is the
basis of child development. He would
find a period for reading, one for
spelling, one for arithmetic. one for
geography, one for music, for hand
work, for drawing. for nature study.
for-but why name them all? Poor
Froebell he would not recognize the
creature of his pedagogical foresight.
To cheer him up l would lead him
to distinctive school-there are a
few such-where the music is like the
spontaneous outburst of birds on a

geography are interviewer with stories
and treated as literature; where ma
ture study Is nature love and out-of-

the arms, legs and back in garden
ing and manual dexterity; where
number work Is relegated to the rear;
where children march, sing, work,
study and play with joy and unself-
consciousness-a school whose pupils
are children and not little old men
and women.
OF course these children do not
know the capital of Kamchatkigo;
or how to define a proposition; or to
draw a trapezium; or to do, re, me-

Mary Tighe, an Irish poet, born
October 0. 1772, was no less noted for
her beauty than for her poetry. Her

said of this poem that it contained
beyond all doubt the most faultles6
lines of verse ever produced by

ly one of those women whom success

career she was unaffected and sincere,
