AID TEACHING OF cIvIcs.
Free Public Library Of Jersey City To-
sues instruction Pamphlets.

sues instruction Pamphlets.
An interesting contribution to the
study of civics has been made by the
Free Public library of Jersey City.
which has recently published three
pamphlets describing the government
of the city. county and state in which
the library is located. The publica-
tons have been prepared primarily for
the use Of the schools and are very
brief and elementary, but more ad-
vanced students will find them useful.
Although treating only Of local condi,
lions. they have a wider interest owing
to the fact that n of the pamphlets
describes the operation Of commission
government In, the largest city Of the
Estate in whichFf It has neen introduced,
and the othertexplains the government
Of a typical New Jersey county.
The Jersey City library has done
much excellent work in the matter Of
instruction in local civics. and. the COM
pilation and distribution Of mon
graphs on the subject is one of the
most interesting features of the work.
Many thousands Of these publications
have been printed and distributed by
the library. They are used in the
schools as textbooks and for supple
mentary readings and have been Of
great assistance to teachers.

CATCHING SUCKERS. - Jimmy
Ryan, alias Professor Crane, clair
VOyant, has admitted that the clair
vOyant game is a swindle; and in tell
ing how it was worked he said they
started out by inserting advertise
ments in such newspapers as would
accept such ads In the McEldoW-
ney case, where a woman was
swindled out of $4,000, he said the
ad was put in the Chicago American.
After inserting the ad the clairvoyant
would sit in his den and wait for the
suckers.
No reputable newspaper will &C
cept clairVOyant ads. Every publish
er knows it is a swindIing game. He
knows that the money paid by the
clairVOyant is part of the money out
of which poor, superstitutious boObs
were robbed. And he knows he is
getting his bit, his share of the swag.
The publisher who takes money for
that kind of advertisements does it
with his eyes open and with full
knowledge Of the swindling game.
How much better, then, is VIM.
Randolph Hearst than Jimmy Ryan
or Barney Bertsche?
IWould say there is more to admire
in Ryan and BeTtsche than in Hearst,
for they took all the risk. Hearst
took none. He got his share of the
swag without risking punishment.
When both the newspapers and the
police stand in with swindlers and
get part of the loot, what chance has
a Door boob got?
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1915-07-24

Some of the advertising run for
big stores is about at par with the
clairvoyant advertising. It's merely
a little more refined method of CATCH
ing suckers.
A newspaper that will take ads Of
alleged cancer and consumption
cures is even worse, for it not only
helps rob the victim of his money,
but also of his health.

but also of his health.
WHY?-Every now and then some
wise guy on the school board starts
in to put the Teachers Federation
and Margaret Haley out of business
Why? Margaret Haley became
known to the people of Chicago years
ago when she found a way to raise
money to pay teachers salaries and
that way was a very simple one; it
was making the rich taxdOdgers pay
their taxes.
For one reason or another rich tax
dodgers don't like to pay taxes. They
yell loudly for law enforcement, par
ticUlarly that part of the law intended
to protect property rights, but they
hate like thunder to pay their share
of the expenses of government.
Possibly they figure that it isn't
necessary for them to pay taxes
when the world is so full Of bOObsf
who don't even grunt when they are
being robbed legally.
Anyhow, Margaret disturbed their
peace of mind and jOlted their pocket
books when she started that fight on
rich taxdOdgers; and ever since3
somebody has been trying to get Mar
garet's goat and job.
And Margaret Haley wasn't afraid
to expose the Tribune and News for
robbing the school children of Chi
cago through that infamous midnight.
lease made by a newspaper-cOn-
trOIled school board.
Maybe some Of the newspapers are
out to get Margaret and the militant
