MATTER LIABLE TO DISTURB CLERK

seriously disturbed by the state OF
lars of the Mission Boards prop
erty had been lost, and the mission
airy work reduced to that of humane
relief. The Board supported 4OC
missionaries in Turkey, among whom
were doctors, preachers, and many
other professions. They had made
heroic stand in the midst of these
trying times. The work at Savass
had been entirely abandoned. Mr.
Church referred to the Congrega-
tional Missionary Board as the old
est in America.
On Sunday evening, the congrega-
ton was honored by having Herbert
M. Bailey, Republican candidate for
Assembly, since elected, address them
on the matter of Home Rule on the
Liquor Question. This is given in
substance elsewhere in the paper.
Monday evening very happy
Halloween party was enjoyed by the
large church family present. The
church was bewitchingly decorated
in the rich foliage and corn stalks
of the season; magic lanterns were
also used. In the center of the
room hung a great witch riding on
broom stick. A male quartet OF
owl-faced ghosts entertained theil
hearers with ditties such as "The
Owl and the Pussy Cat" and there
were other forms Of entertainment
and refreshments. Ladies hoverec
about in witches guise, COLLINS COB
bled, the cauldron dubbed with
steam, and weird playlet was pre-
scented.
Thursday afternoon, thanks to the
kindness of Mrs. Noffka, an auto
load of church members were take,
to Woodbridge to attend the all da!

Those in the party were Mrs. Noffka

Water Relief For
Bergen County

Do you want to get an unlimited
amount of pure water, and not pay
for it to the extent you are doing
now? Yes, why not? Why haven't
we had this privilege long ago?
Well, then, come along on the Public
Service trolley car, or in your own
car, to Hackensack next Wednesday
evening, November 10. when you get
there, there will be somebody to di-
rect you to Paramount School where
at eight o'clock, Commissioner Ton
neie of the State Water Commission
will explain the plan for securing the
water shed of the Wanaque Valley
and it's potable waters for the sup
plying of the citizens of Northern
New Jersey with an abundance OF
this vital necessity at reasonable
rates.
Experts on the question of public
water supply say that there is as
much greater dearth of this com.
modify than is at all suspected. Judge
Seufert, who, as presiding judge al
the recent Investigations of the
Hackensack Water Company is es
pecially informed on the subject, has
| consented to address the meeting.

by the way he answers them.

by the way he answers them.
He may take refuge in some creed
and answer them in the formulas of
others, conscious that they are too
much for him. So he may be a
Christian Jew, Buddhist or Moham-
medan. All these institutions rest
upon the ever green desires of men
to solve in some workable way the
problem of existence and it's signif-
canoe.
Or he may Danish these questions
entirely and give himself to science
or amusemen.
Or he may evade them and call
himself an agnostic.
But whatever he does he must To-
cate himself in some relation to them,
he must take some point of view in
regard to them.
And whatever his point of view
may be, that is his theology.
The agnostic, infdel or wastrel has
exactly as much theology as the
Presbyterian or the Bahist.
The theology of Omar's "Rubaiyat"
is as distinct as that of Calvin's
"Institutes;" even more, for the
former has but one point, and the
latter has five.
To say 81 don't know nor care
where l am going when l die, or
whether l shall survive bodily death
at ALL" is quite as positive an opinion
about the meaning of life as to say
81 am going to heaven because l am
a good Catholic"
At the present stage of the worlds
development these issues are still
possessed by partisan spirit. It is
hard to discuss them without raising
the question, (Which sect do you be-
long to-"
Hence, they are not subjects of
conversation ordinarily in polite So
ciety.
And so we lose much. We should
be helped if we could argue calmly
and honestly about what life and
death mean, without chopping the
head off of every discussion by say

By DIR. FRANK CRANE

There is a great deal of .unrea-
sonable prejudice against theology.
Theology is the science of God,
and God is simply ones theory of
the universe, or the purpose of life,
and of the meaning of destiny.
Every living man has a theology.
His God is either somebody or some
thing, or else nobody or nothing. In
either case it is the fundamental idea
of all his thinking.
The questions, "Why was I born ?"
what is to become of me when
die?" "What responsibility is upon
me in my life?" "What is good and
what is bad, and how are they bind
ing upon me?" are the very deepest
questions one can ask.
And they are questions every
human being does ask, is interested
in, and seeks light upon.
A persons character is determined

Congregational Church activities
these weeks are very interesting and
important. Such topics as the work
of the Congregational missionaries
in Turkey; the live and vital ques..
ton of local option; the writings OF
Henry Van Dyke, and other subjects
have been or are being presented to
the church's members and their
friends.

Majority of present legislature on
joint ballot, II. House stands-Rep.,
3S; DEM, %. Senate-Rep., IL;
DEM, 10.
This shows a Republican gain on
Joint ballot of ten over the 1915
legislature. The Republicans gained
three votes in the assembly and two
in the senate.
The failure of the Democrats to
elect a majority of their assembly
and senatorial candidates means that
Republican will be elected to sue
coed State Treasurer Edward E.
Grosscup, who is also chairman Of
the state Democratic committee.
In the assembly the Democrats
gained one vote in Monmouth county
by the return to the assembly. of
Elmer H. Geran, father of the elet
ton law now in force in this state,
while the Republicans gained three
votes in Bergen county.
The two platoon system for fire
departments was voted upon in three
cities of this state. 1t was adopted
in Atlantic City and Paterson and de-
feated in Trenton.
The Republicans carried their legis-
lative ticket by from $4,000 to 49,
900. While the election generally
was quiet, a good vote was .polled
for an "off" year. Dissatisfaction
with the national administration and
President Wilson's interference in
New Jersey politics are believed to
have been the potent factors in the
defeat of the Democrats.

a result Of the rebuilding of these first
freight cars for this purpose to date
no less than fifty cars have been re-
modelled with money contributed by
individuals or cities of France. So
great has been the use of these cars
to the military surgeons that the war
department has authorised the placing
of one with each of the ESQ hospital
trains now in service in France.
Stimulated by the example Of these
Americans, Nine. Marguerite Care.
the singer wife OF the director OF the
Coincide Franchise, has just equipped
an entire train of fourteen cars with
money she collected. This magnificent
train. known as the Care train. No. 16.
is believed here to be the model hos
pttal train of the world. The train
has just made it's maiden trip to the
front, in charge of DR.. T. Tizon, who
has been in service more than a year.
He has stated that 800 wounded car
ried in the train were transported un-
der admirable conditions and without
the loss of single life.
Service as physicians and nurses in
these trains promises to become as
popular among helping foreigners as
that in the hospitals and ambulance

orders abroad. chiefly in the United
States Besides ordering steel in tho
United States the French shell manu-
facturers have also bought there most
OF their hydraulic machines for shell
forging. Most of the shells ordered for
France in America have been unfnish-

1ect OF helping out the small manu-
facturer. who would otherwise be idle.
and whose works are not equipped for
the production of the shell from start
to finish.
The cost of producing shells has been
greatly reduced since the war began
by the immense scale on which they
are produced and by the use of the
most modern machine tools imported
from the United States. The price paid
for the three-inch shells at the begin
ming OF the war was equivalent to 1850
This price has been reduced by one
third. American makers of larTer-size
caltbefs are. it is understood. receiv-
Ing for six-inch shells about $40 apiece.
These prices are for unloaded shells;
