Mayor SIpats Ettinger and
Praises PrdlI.

Mayor Hylan yesterday turned his
wrath on supt. Ettinger Of the Depart
ment of Education and pinned a few
roses in the buttonhole of Aiming 8.
Prall, who was elected president Of the
Board of Education at the Mayors
instance.
The excuse was the denial of a story
said that about $70,000,000 would be
put in the next budget for the Board
OF Education.
All bunk" declared the Mayor, using
favorite expression of the late Mayor
Mitchell.
THE schools are being restored to
their old time efficiency" said the
Mayor. president Prall has common
sense aims in view. In the FIRST place
be wants to have the schools estab-
lished on the good old fashioned basis
of efficiency before the fads and frills
began to envelop US. Likewise, he Will
strive toward the goal OF a seat for
every pupil. can't predict that he Will
succeed in the fullest sense.
Another aim of President PraTl is to
see that Superintendent Ettinger devotes
his time to the education of children.
Other gentlemen who are deeply inter-
ested in text books will be compelled
to conf1ne their activities to the work
for which they are paid by the people.
We are all tired of petty politics in the
schools. And we are also tired Of the
attempted tyranny of few men and
women who are on the city payrolls
and who spend a good part Of their
time lobbying at Albany and elsewhere. v

NEWBURGER IS OFF
TAMMANY'S SLATE
Continued from First Pogo.


refused to mako any comment after
Tammany had thrown down the gauntlet.
It was a matter OF speculation last
night as to what Mr.. Hearst would do to
retaliate on Tammany Hall for the turn
ing down OF Justice James A. Allen. an
original Independence League man. and
the redesignation of Justice Luce, whose
appointment by Gov Smith has been fol-
lowed by continual attacks upon Justice
Luce and the Governor. That Mr.. Hearst
might not have been able to arouse any
great amount Of antagonism against
Tammany for the Luce nomination or
the refusal TO name Justice Allen, who
has not served full term on the bench,
was the feeling Of politicians.
But. they hold. the fragrant defiance
by Tammany OF the unwritten law that
Justice who has served a full term
with credit should be renominated will
give Mr.. Hearst an issue upon which he
can arouse a storm of protest against
that organization and its ticket
A man close to Mr.. Hearst said that
Of course he could not be expected to
support the Tammany ticket but they
thought he was too wise a fighter to
puta separate ticket in the field. The
Republicans are hoping that he will in
dorse not only their judicial ticket, but
also Representative La Guardia, their
candidate for President of the Board of
Aldermen.
Tammany's first excuse for turning
down Justice Newburger was that he
had been on the bench for a long time
and ought to give way to younger
man. When this was laughed at by the
friends of Justice Newburger, VINO point
ed out that It had been generally consld-
cred that the longer a good Judge was
on the bench the more valuable he be-
came they turned another corner. This
time they said that Justice Newburger
would have only two years to serve be-
fore his retirement through the age limit,
that It would throw the election Of his
successor into the Mayoralty year, which
might be a bad one for the Democrats.
Tammany Excuse Punctured.
This excuse was punctured when II
was proved that Justice Newburger will
be only sc years old in September, and II
reelected would have four full years to
serve.
From that the Tammany leaders
jumped to the declaration that Justice
Newburger was in such poor health that
he could not continue on the bench. His
friends deny this. They say he is in
excellent health for a man of his years.
Tammany men pointed out that Judge
Newburger, on his retirement from the
bench IN January, could become an Off
cial referee at $11.500 year for the
remainder of his life. The law provides
that a Justice who has been on the bench
for twenty-five years may be an Official
referee on retirement by designation of
the Court of Appellate Division. This
is true, but 1t did not satisfy Justice
Newberger's friends, who say that an
unjust slight has been put upon him and
that he could become a referee just as
well four years hence as now.

Within ten minutes after an apph- cation of Danderine you can not find a single trace of dandruf or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most will be after a few weeks use, when you see new hair fine and downy at first-yes-but really new hair-growing all over the scalp.
 A little Danderine immediately dou- bles the beauty of your hair. No diff ference how dull. faded, brittle and scraggy. Just moisten a cloth with Danderine and carefully draw 1t through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. The effect is amaz- ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abundance; an incomparabIe Iustre, softness and luxuriance.
 Get small bottle of Knowlton's Danderine from any drug store or toilet counter, and prove that your hair is as pretty and soft as any that it has been neglected or injured by careless treatment alI-you surely can have beautiful hair and lots of i: if you will just try little Danderine.-Adv.
