to the school law which provides
that all such Advisory Directors
must qualify within ten days
after their election and organize
by electing a chairman and a

been some irregularities in these
boards and attention is called
to the fact that no act of theirs
is valid until they have taken
the oath of office and organized
as provided, and further unless
they qualify and organize within
ten days from last Thursday
they have no right to qualify at

Don't Let a Sluggish Circula- tion Drag You Down
 Hill.

Whether you earn your daily bread by the sweat of your brow, by the daily use of your muscle, or by tasks requiring less physical exertion, you need every ounce of strength that you can command.
 It is of utmost importance, there fore, that you keep yourself in tip top physical trim, and that you take every precaution to safeguard your health from the many pitfalls which disease has spread so promiscuously. Keeping thoroughly well and strong is simply a matter of resisting dis ease.
 Why is it that your neighbor is al- ways healthy and robust and strong, while you find yourself suecumbing to even the most commonplace little ailments that tend to drag down your vitality? It is true that you are both liable to the same attacks, but why does he escape while you do not?
 The answer can be found in the condition of the blood supply. If you keep your blood thoroughly purified and free from all substances that tend to impair its full strength and vigor you, too, will be able to prompt " throw eff an efforts of ciseaSe i'

 Four different sectors of the Ger mans were gas shelled and the quies- cent attitude of the enemy upon all of them afterwards inGicased that the gases lad had the desired effect.
 On their part the Germans have edopted anc'her new plan of warfare which the American trops on the sec tor attacked described as dirty work.

 Secretary Tumulty told the 0iners that in his opinion they had listened tc a letter which embodied the gospel of democracy of this new day.
 These principles" he said, 'repre- sent the outpOurings of the heart of one of the greatest leaders of demo cratic forces in the world-a leader whose moral weight and influence is as dominant in the councils of Flu rope as it is in the councils of the democratic posts in our own country. He has given expression to the yearn- ings that come from the hearts of common men. What a mighty differ ence there is when you contrast these stirring doctrines with that much vaunted, over-advertised program of efficiency whose wrecks and ruins were strewn along the legislative pathway of New Jersey. In the one you hear the cry of humanity; in the other you hear the demands of the counting house, the urgings of spe- cial privilege.

MARINES ARE LANDED.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE. March 20.-(By the As sociated Press )-The first division O. the American expeditionary forces to arrive in France was addressed by Secretary of War Baker today
 Tt would seem more fit," sald the "and I would much prefer, instead of addressing you, to listen to your experiences. Your division has the distinction of being the first to arrive in France. May every man in your ranks aim to make the first division the first in accomplishment. With you came a body of marines, those we'll disciplined ship shape sol diers of the navy.
 When your division arrived, it was regular in name, judged by the high standard set by our regular army. Some sixty per cent of the privates were recruits and even a larger per centase of the offers came from the reserves. Had we chosen we could have sent to France at the outset a veteran regular contingent While this might have been a source of mo- mentary ratification it was contrary to the long view Of our responsibility in giving adequate military assist ance to the allies and out of keeping with the broad plan of our staff to use our professional soldiers of all grades in training a large army which should have units of even quality of efficiency in order to assure dependability upon all parts, which is a requisite to, sue cessful action.
 Yours was the first experience in being billeted and in all the initial oetsiis of adjusting yourselves to the new and strange conditions. In this, as Tn developing a system of training, you were the pioneers blazing the way, which succeeding contingents could profit by your mistakes.
 Day after day and week after week you had to continue the hard drudgery of instruction which is ne cessary to proficiency in modern war. You had to restrain your impa- tience to go into the trenches under General Pershing's wise demand for that thoroughness, the value of which you now appreciate as a result of ac- tual service in the trenches
 Secretary Baker had his baptism of fire this morning in the front line trenches and while he was returning a German shell burst within less than fifty yards of his motor car. He was noti injured.
 The secretary went into the trenches in a sector where American troops face the enemy nearby. The Gegmans maintained an active fire with heavy pieces and machine guns. Nevertheless, MT.

DEMOCRATIC DUTY
 IN CRISIS NAMED
President Sends Message to New Jersey Party Heads Saying That Old Slogans Have Lost Significance.
CBy Review Leased wire)

NEWARK, N. J., March 2O.-Nev Jersey democratic leaders assembled here tonight for reorganization ban quet were greeted by message from President Wilson as national head oi the party. calling upon them to rise to the test of a new time when old party slogans have lost their signifi- canoe to the committees themselves and of disinterested service to human ity.
 In a letter presented by Secretary Tumulty, the president said the ne cessity tor his staying 'on the job made it impossible for him to be pre- sent but it was clear that in the pre- sent posture of affairs in New Jersey he could not overlook his respOnsibil- ity to point out what he believed to be the duty of the Democrats of the state in a great hour of crisis. "Ev- eryone Of these terrible days of war and revolutionary change when eco homie and social forces are being re- leased upon the world, whose effect no political seer dare venture to con jecture,'r wrote the president, bids us search our hearts through and through and make them ready for the birth of a new day, a day we hope and believe, of greater opportunity and greater prosperity for the mass of struggling men and women, and Of greater safety and opportunity for children.
 War Causing Change.
 "The old party slogans have lost their significance and will mean noth- irg to the voter of the future, for the war is certain to change the mind of Europe as well as the mind Of Amer ica- Men everywhere are searching Gemocratic principles in their hearts in order to determine their soun6ness, their sincerely, their adaptability to the real needs of their life and every man with any vision must see that the real test of justice and right ac- tion is presently to come as il never came before The men in the trenches. who have been freed from the economic serfdom to which some of them had been accustomed, will, it is likely, return to their homes with a new view and Q new impatience of all mere political phrases and will de- mand real thinking and sincere ac- tion.
 Let the democratic party in New Jersey therefore forget everything but the new service which they are to be called upon to. render. Days of poli- tioal and economic construction which are ahead of us no man can now def initely assess. but we know this, that every program must be shot through and through with utter disinterested- ness. that no party must try to serve itself but every party must try to serve humanity, and that the task is a very practical one, meaning that every program, every measure in ev- cry program, must be tested by this question and this question only: is it just, is it for the benefit of the aver age man without influence Or privil- eee: does it embOdy in real fact the highest conception of social justice

lnestant reneI-no waiting. YouT clogged nostrils open right up; the air passages of your head clear and you can breathe freely. No more hawking snuffling, blowing, headache, dryness. No struggling for breath at night; your cold or catarrh disappears.
 Get a small bottle of Ely's Cream Balm from your druggist now. Apply little of this fragrant, antiseptic, healing cream in your nostrils. It pen etrates through every air passage of the head, soothes the inflamed or swollen mucous membrane and relief comes instantly.
 It's just fine. Don't stay stuffed-up with a cold or nasty catarrh.
