Hurt in Auto Wreck

-Four persons were injured in an auto
accident which occurred early Sunday
morning on the Burlington pike at
Sorrel Horse, between here and Cam.
den, when machine swerved into a
ditch in avoiding another car and
was wrecked against telegraph pole.
The four persons are: John Kreps,
Jr., of 1884 Kenwood avenue, Camden,
who was driving; Miss Nellie McDer-
mott and Miss Louise VanSciver, both
of Burlington, and Frank Rider, Jr,
of Riverside, who were on their way to
the girls home, after spending the
evening in Camden.
The injured were taken to the Eur
brugg Memorial Hospital at Riverside,
where their injuries we're treated. Kreps
and Miss Louise VanSciver are still in
the hospital, the former suffering from
double fracture Of the arm, and loss
of blood from bad gashes about the
body, and the latter is suffering from
injuries about the limbs and shock.
Miss McDermott has cut and bruises.
Rider, although suffering from prob
able internal injuries, insisted upon
being taken to his home. The car
was purchased by young Kreps'
parents four weeks ago.

TUESDAY. NOVEMBER IA, 1916

PURELY on his record as a construct
i've. far-seeing legislator, Senator Wal
ter 4. Edge was chosen at the primary
election as the Republican candidate
for Governor, and that choice was rati-
ned on Tuesday in q manner which
showed that the people had not re-
pented Of their action in September,
but had determined to still further
show their appreciation of the actions
OF the young man, for he is only 43
years OF age. Senator Edge has per-
sonality that gained him admiration,
but the qualifications which drew the
people to him was the business-like
manner in which he conducted his
campaign and the outline of what he
proposed to do if elected to the Office to
which he aspired. In support of this
proposition he presented the experience
ofsseveral years in the legislative halls
ut Trenton, and many of the progress
sive measures which have been bene-
fetal to the state, while not entirely
satisfactory TO some whose heads may
have dropped in the basket, are on the
statute books because of the activity
and earnest endeavors of Senator Edge.
At q loss to find something to bear
against him, the name of Atlantic
City was dragged in and an attempt
was made to show that the city was
very wicked and black, and that,
necessarily, Senator Edge must be re-
sponsible for some of the wrong doings
in that resort. But the people, by the
tremendous vote they gave the candi-
date for Governor, have not only clear
ed away all the clouds in that direction
but they have shown that they have
faith in the man whom they have elect
ed to be their Governor. And that
this confidence will not be abused is
absolutely certain.

Travellers Ink.

White blotting paper is saturated
with aniline black and several sheets
are pasted together so as to form a
thick paste. When required for use a
small piece is torn off and covered
with little water. This makes a
good writing ink. A square inch Of
paper will produce enough ink to do
considerable writing and few pads
would be all that an exploring party
need carry with them. AS water is
always available the ink is readily
made.

Alsolid South turned up as usual for
o Democratic candidate for President.
There is virtually only one party in
most Of the South, and q man with a
q Democratic tag can always
be elected to anything. Mr.. Wilson,
of course, had no difficulty south OF
Mason and Dixon's line.
A practically solid East turned up
for Mr. Hughes. New York went over
whelmingly for him. SO did New Jer-
ssy, Mr.. Wilson's own state. Illinois
joined the East. So did Indiana.
Under such conditions there should
have been no difficulty in slecting
Hughes by an overwhelming majority
inlthe Electoral College. State after
state in the West heretofore in the Re-
publican columns was claimed for him,
and apparently with certainty. The
announcement made in all OF the
newspapers Of the land on Wednesday
morning that Hughes had been elected
were made in good faith and based
upon what was considered to be solid
foundation.
And then, Of sudden, the West be-
gan to uphsave. and for two days the
West kept the country guessing.

And what Of Kansas2 The one-time

in it refusal Of many Progressives to
go back into the Republican ranks, is
1t . combination of the two, or some
thing else?
And who can account for the close

hand-to-hand fighting in California; Of

the other being Vermont, that stood

chaos. But why? What is the object?

gain?

Keeping Them In Use ls Better Thar

Keeping Them In Use Is Better Thai
Letting Them Stand Idle.
Few persons whose everyday life Il
In some way dependent upon the stor
age battery know the paradoxieal truth
!, that the more 1t Is used the longer II
lives. Thus great mistake Is made
by automobile owners, for instance, In
allowing batteries to stand idle fol-
long periods Of time, for when storage
batteries are not in action the plates
are subject to attack by the acid solu-
ton. If this corrosive process is al
lowed to continue uninterruptedly the
entire surface Of the plates becomes
covered with hard layer of sulphate.
which destroys the porous texture of
the plates and makes them incapable
OF engaging in normal electrolytic ac-
ton, but when the batteries are being
used to generate electricity the CON
slant shifting Of the atoms in the me
tallic plates prevents the accumulation
of sulphate deposits.
Instead of lying unused, storage bat
teries can be applied to the lighting of
ornamental lamps or night lamps with
no expense except for occasional re-
charging and with saving of electric
light bills as well as much frightening
the life of the batteries.
When storage batteries are to remain
totally idle for as long as two months
the acid solution should be removed
from the porous plates. To do this
they should be short circuited in water
and discharged until the voltage is
about half volt. Then they should
be rinsed thoroughly and allowed to
soak In water for at least day. When
the plates are dried they can be kept
indefinitely without fear Of deteriora-

Mighty Jupiter.

Jupiter, the largest Of the planets, is
1,300 times the bulk and 80 times the
mass of the earth, and accomplishes its
rotation on its axis In nine hours fifty
minutes. As the equatorial circumfer-
ence is 275,O0O miles, the linear rota-
tional velocity of point on the equa-
tor is nearly eight miles a second.
