NINETYSEVEN CENTS
Sidney Rogers, IS, Who Ran Away Because School
Report Was Bad Found at Bradley Beach, N. J.
Tells Story Of Three-Day Wanderings

Three days on 81 cents, This is the
record made by Sidney Rogers, who was
found yesterday in Bradley Beach
n. j.. after he had been missing from
his home at 100 Riverside Drive since
Tuesday. ..
Besides showing that a healthy fif-
teen-year-old boy can live on a mini
mum wage scale il he has to, Sidney
proved last night that when the same
boy comes back in a prodigal son role
he can do ample justice TO the fatted
calf menu.
Mr.. Rogers brought his son back at
o'clock last evening. After the boy
had made up at the dinner table for
his three days on reduced rations. he
told the story of his trip. Mrs. Rogers
interrupted now and then with an "Oh,
Sidney. how could you?" and the
father, who seemed proud Of his sons
prowess as tramp, now that he had
the boy back again, interjected fire.
quent "Can you beat that"
"When | went off Tuesday after
noon," Sidney began, 81 had two ap-
pies, a couple of oranges, a pair of
pajamas, my stamp album and II cents.

"wednesday morning | came back to
New York and took a St. George ferry

came along, and | stopped it and hitched
a ride to the middle of Staten Island.
Then the auto turned off, and | started
walking again.

Our Need of Satan

Perhaps it is misfortune, in view of the pres ent horrld tumult the water, that the con ception of Satan has slipped so largely from the well organized theological beliefs those who largely lack the support of such platform are pcrpleAed. At this time. when awful engines of destruction are in active operation, when villages in some of the greatest countries of the world are without many mourners. it would be safety valve for good many persons if they could have Satan vividly in mind that they might put responsibility for the present overwhelming woes him.
 There is deal of irony in this epoch in Mark Twains famous tribute to his Satanic Majesty Oppressed by the war cloud is apt think that these words were never apropos:

They never lead to impairment of vision and before stated perfectly transparent.

A Farce Nears An End

There is possibility that the hearing of the charges against City Manager Parish will reach today. To the onlooker of average intelligence farce should have been long continued The commissioners would have been warranted in throwing it the end of the first half day
 The motive behind the prosecution evil dent that a strong against the city manager would have been made weak The public was, indeed. led to believe that the prosecutors had something on the manager it did know what. It could not be conceived by any disinter- ested person tlat prosecution which must sarily be attended by great deal of expense should only tend to show that the city like all his brothers and sisters of the human family was infallibe and might fall into But the evil dence has failed to show that he did err though he might have done
 How hard put it the prosecution for ammunition is shown in the charge that the city manager had not compelled the street railway pany repair the paving between the rails when if have been known the prosecutors that the city manager without power compel those repairs.
 Hardly less ridiculous the charges in spect of the extension of the electric light which never executed in the form which be- came the basis of the charge and which the city manager had not insisted should be executed. But that contract immeasurs,bly a1-
