InHN AND

Any American or Briton who tries
to create discord between the Eng
lish-speaking nations is a traitor to
his W country. So speaks Baron
Beaverbrook. chief proprietor Of the
London Daily Express, who has just
arrived in the United States.
When Lord Beaverbrook advocates
Anglo-American cooperation it Is the
broad vision Of the west that speaks
Recently. It was proposed in some
quarters that Great Britain ask the
United States to cancel the British
war debts. Lord Beaverbrook killed
the suggestion by pointing out Great
Britain was able to pay all she owed
and had always done so. He is now
pressing the Lloyd George ministry
to tax every fortune made in Grea:
Britain out OF the war. He also de-
mands the British government with
draw from Mesopotamia II the Arab
tribesmen prefer wild freedom to a
mandate of civilization. When British
hnanciers lately tried to form a
money trust after the Wall Street
model, it was Lord B~eaverbrook who
urged action to prevent all amaiga-
nations against public interest.
Mere than ryone else of British
birth who occupies a position of
power : n England, Lord B~eaverprook
understands the spirit OF practical
liberalism, which is the distinctive
characteristic of American democ-
racy. He sympathizes with It. He is
determined that practical liberalism
shall play the dominant part in the
reconstructive processes now at work
in Great Britain.

men and women this day according
to astrologers who find Mercury. the
sun and Saturn all in strongly ben
etc aspect. Neptune and Venus are
adverse.
Advertising and publicity of every
sort is well directed, while Mercury
is friendly and there is an especially
good forecast for those who seek APP
probation from the people.
Political candidates should make
the best possible use of the hours
of the morning when it is probable
that pleasant impression will be cas-
lily made on the public mind.
There is a sign read as favorable
to old leaders, who seek to ecover
popularity and power.
The aged should benefit during
this rule, which is believed to impart
a~lertness and energy to men and wo-
men.
Misiudgment concerning the aims
and aspirations of women Is fore
cast by the tars. There may be Sc

Outstanding, the seers warn.
Marriage problems will be upper
most in discussions after the begin

attention on human problems.
For the comfort of defeated candi-
dates who seek great national re-

March will present the most grave
world conditions since the end of the
war is made by astrologers.
Rioting and revolution will prevail
in Central Europe after a winter of
supreme anxiety. it is prognosticated.
There is to me serious trouble in Por

END THE USELESS NOISE.

With the reopening of the state
highway bridge Perth Amboy is once
more the objective point for auto
mobiles from all directions in going
to and from New Jersey coast re-
sorts. The slight respite we enjoyed
for a few weeks while the bridge was
closed TO trafic is over. 1t is all the
more necessary. then. that particu-
lar attention be given to the useless
noises made by autoists on the city
streets.
The trucks are the greatest often
ders in this. With cut-outs wide open
and screech whistles sounding every
few hundred feet, these vehicles be-
come a nuisance. Ask the people
living on High street between Smith
and Market streets. the residents on
Market street or those living on Am
boy avenue. Prospect and Sheridan
streets and you will get an idea what
they think about the way the law and
ordinances are being violated. Great
trucks just of the ferry boat go right
past police headquarters at all hours
Of the day and night with cut-outs
wide open without any effort being
made to stop them. Truly, 1t is time
something was done to give relief
The business section of the city is a
veritable nightmare because of thii
nerve-racking noise and racket. Isn't
it about time to give the people SONS
relief? Other cities are going after
this nuisance. 1t can be stopped
readily enough II the authorities viii
show a little energy in that direc'
ton. Why not have Perth Ambo.

HEALTH ADVICE
The First Sanitary Code.


Every well administered city nova
days pays considerable attention to
the health of the people. In fact, so
thoroughly is this understood to be
necessary hat people take 1t as a
matter of course hat there are sani-
tary laws and regulations. In most
cities and states such laws are def
nitely arranged in the form of a SAM
tary Code.
The development of modern sani-
tary methods is of comparatively re-
cent date. Most of it dates back less
than as years ago. The Constitution
of the United States makes no men
ton whatsoever of the present time.
Yet with all this, the fact remains
that a well developed Sanitary Code
constitutes one of our most ancient
documents, one which is Furthermore
remarkable for the applicability of
many of the provisions to present day
conditions. 1 refer, of cours to the
Mosaic laws as they are recorded in
the Bible. Turn to the book of Lee
viticus and read chapter fifteen,
verses 2 to 13 and to Deuteronomy
and read chapter twenty-three, verses
IL to 10.
Written thousands of years before
anything was known about germ dis
eases, it is remarkable to observe the
emphasis laid on discharging as We
hicles of infection, and on bathing,
airing, and isolation as means of
guarding against the transmission OF
disease.
The method of disposing of human
excretia advised by the Mosaic code
is still recognized as an efficient and
sanitary means of disposal, and in
connection with modern plumbing
systems is much used under the term
disposal by subsoil drainage" And
as for the rules regarding discharges,
uncleanliness, bathing and isolation
they can be followed probably even
today.

WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN.


AS the campaign advances and the
people are better able TO size up the
presidential candidates of the two
great parties, the more one regrets
that we have not a man like Herbert
Hoover to vote for this fall. 1t 1:
pretty generally admitted now thai
neither the Republican nor Demo.
cratic party made use Of its best ma
terial in selecting men to run for
President. Harding. the Republican
candidate, is wibble-wabbling first for
one thing and then for another giving
more and more convincing proof that
he has not much of a mind of his
own. but is trying to do whatever his
party leaders tell him to do, and there
are so many leaders of a different
stripe that he hardly knows what he
stands for.
Cox. the Democratic candidate, is
perhaps a little stronger character,
but he is more of a typical politician
than a man of business ability and
craftsmanship, something so much to
be desired in the present period of
the nations history. His nomination
was brought about not so much by
the will of the rank and file Of the
party as by the fixed determination of
a few party bosses. including Murphy,
of Tammany Hall, Taggart, Of In
diana, Brennan, of Illinois, and Nu-
gent. of New Jersey. This gang rep
resents anything but craftsmanship.
The spoils are what interest them.
not the great national and interna-
tional problems.
In short, there is nothing in the
personality of either candidate to in
epire confidence. That Is what causes
the campaign to lag and the people
10 AOoc lhlOiOot- WAh q
Hoover, however, the people would
have a real mar of affairs. a man who
has proven his worth, a man who has
successfully faced great crises. a man
with a worldwide reputation whose
very name is an inspiration. 1t seems
q pity that while the nation can have
the services of such men as Mr..
Hoover during war time it cannot
have such services in times of peace,
yet IT is just as essential that the
re ely big men of the country be call
lie upon to serve now as when the
ration was at war.
However, we have got to accept
things as they are. Hoover was not
enough Of a politician to suit the
party leader. He was turned down.
The campaign is on with only Hard
ing and Cox to choose between. That
is the reason so many people are still
very much undecided as to which way
they will vote. 1t is not an inspiring
outlook.

A. The relation of climate to rheu-
matism is still very obscure. In fact,
in many forms of rheumatism there
is probably no specific relation to eli
mate whatever. In addition to this
the term rheumatism is so loosely
used and is applied to so many diff
ferent conditions that no specific re-
commentator can be made.
