Aviator's Dip Spills
Pickle Mans Cargo
Plane Scares Team; Runaway
and Collision Follow; Ma
tives Grab Relishes

All that Morris Geller, pickle mer-
chant of 81 Belmont Avenue, Brook
lyn, asks is the opportunity to talk
face to face for just one minute with
the aviator who yesterday upset his
pickle wagon and spilled all his pickles
Geller charges the unidentified air
man with causing the runaway of the
team attached to the pickle wagon
which, after a seven-block dash
crashed into team driven by Frank
Gentosa, of 1883 Gergen Street. In vne
shock of collision the pickle wagon up
set, all four horses fell down and
Gentosa and Geller sustained minor
cuts and bruises, in addition to being
swamped under pickles and getting O
vinegar bath.
Several hundredweight of pickles
were poured out on the asphalt, and
though Geller was too dazed to rescue
these, large crowd gave itself over
to the salvage with enthusiasm.
The team drawing the load of pickles
was plodding sedately along New Lots
Road, at Stone Avenue, when an air
plane came swooping down out of the
low hanging clouds. Some 80 feet
from earth the fier "pancaked" his
machine and started his motor The
sudden roar of the engine startled the
horses.
They drove ahead on a dead run,
while Geller sawed desperately at the
reins and the offending airplane scared
back into the clouds. Down New Lots
Road the animals charged, carroming
in their course from trolley car,
another wagon and an automobile. They
took some paint from each object they
hit and left some hide in exchange, but
did little further damage. At Hegeman
and Rockaway avenues they struck
Gentosa's team head on.

Governor Explains
$l4,0OO,O0 Rise i'm
States Budget

Governor Smith. wig during the cam
paign last year assa11ed the Republi
cans for extravaganza and a growing
tax rate, said that a reduction of from
S5,00o,O00 to $10000,00O in the states
annual budget was practicable, and
gave the voters to understand that if
they elected him he would reduce the
expenditures. Yesterday he issued a
statement explaining the increase of
$14,000,000 for 1919.
"The Legislature,~ says the Gov
ernor, "presented to me appropriation
bills amounting to $100,275,899. I
vetoed bills to the amount of $4,705,-
595.86, and approved bills to the total
of $95, 5,538,303.18, as compared with ap-
preparations last year totalling $751;
525,270.31, an increase of $14,013,-
O32.87.
"Much of the repairs and construc-
tion provided for this year was needed
last year, but I would make no criti-
cism Of the last administration for not
making full appropriations for this
particular account, for the reason that
the country was at war and the Fed
eral government requested that men
and materials be not diverted from
the purposes of the government except
in grave necessity"
The Governor traverses the record
of budgetary increases, giving the rea-
sons. Of some of the larger items he
says:
During the campaign I spoke at
great length upon the necessity for
liberal appropriations for the Depart
ment of Education. Accordingly,
signed bill increasing the states
allotment to the common schools for
teachers salaries, carrying an appro-
priation of $5,3o0,0OO.
when Congress adjourned without
acting upon the big financial bills, the
Federal labor bureaus were threatened
at the very time that we needed them
most. Nothing was left for the state
to do but come to their aid. For their
continuance, accepted bills .aggregat-
ing 1888 ,633.34."

Prepared for the Future.

It was at the door of a store which
had advertised exceptional bargains
for that day, in the jam, that Mrs.
Blank saw Mrs. Brown and rushed to
shake hands with her and say:
"Oh. Mrs. Brown, are you here?"
"Yes, I am here. but did not expect
to meet you"
'Why. you see, am going to join
the new league and am getting ready
for It."
SIS it the Woman's league. where we
pledge ourselves not to buy hat or a
garment costing more than $10?,'
Eyes, that is the one and / am going
to join it, too. I am getting ready for
It,"
And they entered the store together
and each bought a dress marked down
from $50 to S4S, and $50 hats and coats
that cost over $50 each. They went out
feeling that they could stand by their
pledge.

WARS SET UP PRINCIPLES
Momentous Questions Troubling Man
kind Have Been Settled by the
Worlds Greatest Conflicts.

Wars are milestones. Victories set
the principles that have been vindi-
Gated.
The battle of Marston Moor de-
stroyed feudalism, overthrow the doc
trine of the divine right of kings. gave
England an elective parliament, Rev.
Dr. Newell Dwight Hills said in q SER
mon reported in the Brooklyn Eagle.
The French revolution destroyed
French autocracy, and gave the people
the right of self-determination.
The war, of 1776 was the last civil
war of Great Britain-a war of good
section of the English people against
the bad section of Great Britain which
had enthroned a crazy German king
George III.
The war of 1861 established on sure
foundations the republic, the last best
hope of man, and indicated industrial
democracy without regard to color.
The war of 1914 has settled certain
things for all time. War shall be no
more! Hereafter disputes between
races shall be settled by an interna-
tional supreme court. Militarism shall
be no moreover again shall the peo-
pies resources be wasted in piling up
munitions, nor the man in the furroW
carry soldier upon his back. Inter
national treaties hereafter shall be
sacred! Alas for the next nation that
counts its written pledge a scrap OF
paper and defies international law
The small races and peoples are free
| No big bully nation like Germany car
ever again trample upon Belgium, as
King Ahab trampled on Naboth ant

and frightfulness henceforth are out

WOUNDED DOLL IDEA
MADE CHILD HAPPY
The Little Girl Had An Up
To-Date Christmas Gift
Just the Same

There is an old saying that hap
penings seemingly of an i'll nature
often turn cut to be for the best.
The adage was exemplifed oddly dur
ing the holidays in a typical New
York family, albeit considerable aid
was given by brilliant thought and
some niger uity on the part of a wonl-
an.
It seems that the family, consisting
of father, mother and two children,
had planned to have a nice Christmas
tree. One of the things that one of
the children, little girl, had asked
Santa Claus, whom she saw in a de-
partment store, to bring her was a
bed, fully equipped with bed clothing,
and with a nice dolly lying snugly
within
The night before Christmas after
! the children had gone to bed mamma
discovered while dressing the tree
that Santa had somehow forgotten to
leave a dolly in the bed. The bed
was there, with sheets, pillow cases,
mattresses, comfortable and all, but
the most Important part of 1.-THE
occupant-Was missing.
| The young mother was distracted.
1t would 1ever do to leave the bed
! without doll, so she sent daddy out
to get one. 1t was very late, the
stores were crowded and daddy was
excited and abashed in the presence
of so many shoppers and saleswom-
en-.
| He saw quantity of dolls on a
counter, but they all seemed to be
hairless He had been told to get a
doll with nice blonde hair
| He 1umaged around for a while
himself, the saleswoman being busy,
and finally he spied a doll with nice
head of hair. He grabbed is up
quickly, asked salesgirl the price,
and then handed her the money.
When he got home and unwrapped
the package his wife almost collaps-
ed. The doll had no legs. It had been
dismembered by the rummagers in
the store end daddy never noticed it
He absolutely refused to go back and
get another, and anyhow the store
probably wa. closed. Mamma could
hardly conceal her disappointment
and chagril
/ at looks like wounded SOLDIER
she cried. Then she had an idea.
She dressed the doll in night cloth
cs and when her little girl came dowr
stairs in the morning, she took he
:; to one side and told her solemnly tina
Santa Claus had brought her
wounded dell from France, just iks
the wounded soldiers, as he wantet
particularly to please her.
The child was delighted. TIL
wounded coll' is the best liked o
all her toys and she. is the envy o
, other childle en- in the neighborhood
/ who express repret that Santa wa
not up to date in his distribution o
! gifts 10 them.

man cannot do this. The brute anC
the bully are always towards. The
Emperor Nero, having fled from.
Rome, was about to be captured ano
a faithful servant advised him to fal
or his sword and end his life. Nero
replied: II cannot do it, it would hur,
too much" During all the years OF
the war the Germans have show
that they are the Neros of today. AnC
now the women of Germany, who
were the champion spitters of the
world, visiting their filth Of wore
and deed en- helpless prisoners, arc
asking that they be cuddled back in
to fat prosperity. There was ample
food in Germany to feed the soldiers
in the field, to keep them in fighting
trim that they might MAIN and kill
the children OF France and Belgium
It is .low within the power of these
Hun butchers to return to their hon.
est employments and provide fo,
their own.
And what are we being fed on.
Answer: German guile, German bunk
German hypocrisy, German lies, al
these designed to take the edge off
our victory, to dull our sense of JUS
tice, to lull our proper resentments
to cheat the boys who have fought
the good fight, out of the honors OF
war, Germany long since lost the
power of honest speech or deed. The
language of treachery and trickery is
the only one she knows. Let US not
turn slackers at this late day; let us
not be hired mourners, wailine
around the dead we never loved; rath
er let US be humane and honest, with
a true sense of obligation for those
who fought while we talked; let u
have a proper regard for the men who
lie in Flanders fields.
