Random Remarks

Judge Marshall, of Mercer county, de-
livered an important opinion in an en-
ployer's liability case, last week. A
young man was killed at Bordentown
while working on an electric line, COM
ing into contact with a high voltage
wire. The father brought suit to recover
under the employers liability law, and
the defence contended that the father
did not have any standing in the mat
ter as he was not total dependent i.
The court said it was fully satisfied
that the father. as head of the family
was actually dependent in part upon
the contributions of his son. Under the
statute the court decided that the word
dependent" means dependent for the
ordinary necessities of life. One who
looks to another for support or help, if
partially dependent. must necessarily
be actually dependent. Upon this con
clusion the court allowed the father
compensation at the rate of thirty five
per cent. of his sons wages for 300
weeks.

Nor YET Satisfied.

Editor Sleeper. of the Palmyra Meas,
is not satisfied with the position he oc-
cupies-that of man with sword
hanging over his head. He wants to be
tried and wants the chance to show that
he not only told some of the trueh about
the county clerk and the search clerk,
but he wants to be able to show that he
has more hot shot in reserve. He terms
Knight and Harris towards and asks
why, If they are SO anxious to have the
trial proceed, they do not use "the very
evident power they have, on prosecutor
Kelsey, and have him try the case. "
This appears all right viewed from Pal
myra, but up here where we all know
the prosecutor, it is rather laughable, for
those who are acquainted with Kelsey
are well aware of the fact that when he
makes up his mind he feels that "his
mind is his own" and that settles it.
Sleeper is the man who is in position
to demand trial. He has constitution
al rights and he should demand that the
cloud that hangs over him be dispelled.
Just how his counsel stands is not
known but it is reported that the latter
had consultation with prosecutor Kel-
sew D6lOTt Lille dCtNbn III JuC Odluucu
court. Brother Sleeper repels the idea
expressed by the prosecutor that there is
politics in this matter and he also throws
to the winds the fear expressed by Kel-
sey that the county would be put to
great expense. He says:
1.-THE idea that there is politics in it is
very far fetched. The editor is not in
politics and so could not be hurt in that
respect, even by conviction. AS far as
the cost to the county is concerned, that
would be very small, because no jury
would be to pay, and as far as the wit
ness fees go, we will agree to assume al
such costs, without any expense to the
county, if a trial is held, so that excuse
is worthless. Now, if you are not COW
ards, come on -
Now there the matter rests. "NC
politics, no expense" says Sleeper
knight and Harris are ready for trial
Who does Sleeper refer to as towards? p

A New Office.

Chapter 149 of the laws of 1916 says:
whenever the Commissioner of Educa-
ton shall in his opinion deem it advis-
able he may appoint a helping teacher
to aid and direct the teachers in the
schools of two or more districts and shall
fix the salary of such helping teacher at
a sum not exceeding fifteen hundred dol
lars year, which shall include all
travelling expenses, provided that no
such appointment shall be effective I'M
til it is approved by the State Board of
Education"
Thus has another responsibility" been
thrust upon the State Commissioner and
it probably was done without his 'initia-
tive or efforts" He has made the APP
pointment and to his credit in this in
stance he did not go outside of the
county but gave the position to Mrs,
Ada z. Colby, who has beenprincipal Of
the Pemberton schools for some time
and whois admirably qualified for the
work. Her duties will consist in visiting
schools which are without a supervising
principal and aid the teachers in doing
work that will benefit their pupils and
elevate their schools.

mier had twenty loose torpedoes in his
pockets while he smeared some tar on a
stick from roofer's tar pot. He swung
the stick in the air to cool it for mould

hand on the tar to test it, and burning
his fingers, quickly slapped his hand on
his leg. Che conclusion set off the tor

Prayer is. in the strictest sense, the
expression of a desire to a superior be-

to satisfy it. In the light of the life
and teachings of Jesus Christ, prayer is
much more than this-it is communion
with God. How earnestly Christ la
bored to lead His followers to the full
knowledge and experience Of prayer!
And not even yet have we gotten far
away from the idea of prayer that it is
a petition to some awful. far-off being
for some material blessing to satisfy
our physical needs.
BY the answer to prayer we usually
mean the granting of our request, and
