On account of the bridges being
down over MONDAY for the bitches

was suspended through the first
quarter. However, it has been re-
opened and we hope for the full CO.
operation and assistance of the whole
church and community. The school
has never been all that it should have
been, and the church will make a
great effort to make this session one
of its best.
There will be an all day Sunday

METuCHEN HAS
KICK ON BUSES
Chief Hutchinson to Take Up
Matter With Perth Amboy
and N. Brunswick Officials
fBy Evening News stan c-OrrsspOndsnt.l

fBy Evening News star correspondent.l
METUCHEN, March 11:-Com-
plants have been prevalent in the
borough for some time as the result
OF the failure OF the buses running
to and from Metuchen between
Perth Amboy and New Brunswick
not running on schedule. Local
residents who happen to be in New
Brunswick or Perth Amboy late at
night have reported that the buses
have not run according to schedule
and the same has applied to persons
in Metuchen who wish to get either
to Amboy or the county seat.
Last night Chief Hutchinson stop
ped three buses which were passing
through the borough within two
minutes of each other. The first bus
was going to Perth Amboy on sched-
uled time and this was allowed to
continue. The second bus should
have been going to New Brunswick
but instead no passengers would be
admitted and il was following the
first auto toward Perth Amboy. The
chief told the driver that he could
either continue on to New Bruins
wick, as his schedule required. or
the bus permit would be taken away
from II as far as Metuchen was con-
cerned. 1t went to New Brunswick.
The third bus was also going to
Perth Amboy but it was thirty min
utes ahead of its schedule. Chief
Hutchinson held the car here until
the time for it to cave had arrived
and then permitted it to start.

should be two stories high. thus
making it possible to secure the rent
OF stores on the first floor. Allow
ance will be made for an auditorium
and other rooms on the second floor
in which the American Legion
might hold their meetings.
The reports of the various COM
mittees would indicate that the COM
munity memorial idea has a firm
and substantial foundation. John
Connors. president of the club.
opened the meeting with a short
talk in which he pointed out the
need and value of community spirit.
Harmony is essential TO successfully
carry on such an undertaking. he
said, and he felt that the general
sentiment was such that all would
work together for the fulhllment
of the proposed plans.

during the past week many meet
ings had been held by the various

determining what plan of action
should be followed out. Robert

METUCHEN. March 11.-Great
impetus was given the community
house idea at a well attended meet
ing held IN the post office building
last night, tentative plans being that
the new building shall be erected at
the corner OF Main street and Mid
dlesex avenue at a cost not to ex-
coed $4,000. The Metuchen Ath-
ietic Club and the American Legion
were well represented and the CO.
operation Of these two strong organ
izations were pledged. S~ixty-six
charter members were taken into
The Grub last night and an oppor-
tunity will be offered everyone in
the borough to join as a charter
member.
1t appeared likely hat the new
organization will carry the name Of
the Metuchen Community Club. thus
doing away with the name "Carna-
ton" which has always been con-
nected with local activities. The
various chairmen of committees
selected last week reported on their
activities and the progress made by
them.
II was practically decided last
night that the new community house
should serve as a memorial building
70 the Metuchen boys who lost their
lives in the World War. John Reyn-
oIds. chairman OF the finance COM
mittee. pointed out that instead of
making the structure a n story
building as originally planned II
Perth Amboy evening news., 1921-03-11

some tentative sketches had been
drawn and studied in detail. He
pointed u that this committee real
lied the plans would have to be
within the means of the community
and the amount to be expended on
the work would necessarily have to
be known before the work OF draw
ing the plans could be started.
John Reynolds. Of the finance
committee, declared the club should
be self supporting as far as posi-
bic. He pointed out that by making
the building two stories and having
stores on the first floor rents
amounting to about $4,000 a year
could be received. He suggested
that s55.000 be placed as the limit
of the cost OF the memorial building.
As for memberships he suggested
that the senior dues not exceed IS
per year nor the junior dues more
than SO per year.
Joseph Powers, of the visiting
committee, reported having taken
up with the Metuchen Athletic Club
the matter of joining the community
club and announced that the out
look is favorable. The idea Is to
have this body of men form the
athletic division OF the community
club and ii is possible that in time
the OF ganization will lose its identi-
ty as the Metuchen \. c. and be-
come amalgamated with the Com
munity Club.
Lucian Bruno. of the Metuchen
A. c.. announced that that club now
has lis members. all of whom are
willing to join the new organization.
1t was suggested that the barn.

the proposed site for the new mem
orial community house. be repaired
so as to serve as a meeting place
for the athletic club. William T.
McAdams is the owner.
The American Legion was well
represented last night and enthusi-
astic owe the proposal which would
give them a new meeting place.
Everyone is invited to join the alub

MOST W.S.C. STUDENTS

Seventeen Per Gent of Male Students

Per Cent Earn All Expenses

More than half of the young men
enrolled as students in the State Col
lege this year are earning all their
expenses while obtaining college
education, and large percentage do
so during the college term, accord
, ing to an investigation just complet-
ed by Harry Nj. Chambers, alumni
secretary. Only II per cent of the
men students are wholly independ-
ent of their own earning power while
pursuing their studies. His complete
analysis shows the following figures:
Fifty-one per cent earn all their
expenses; five per cent earn two
/ thirds; 16 per cent earn one-half,
and IL per cent earn one-third.
Forty-eiGht per cent earn from one
third to all of their expenses during
term time.
Every possible opportunity to
earn an honest dollar is eagerly
seized by these young chaps" says
Mr.. Chambers. They do janitor
work, office and clerical work, help
in the stores down town, wait on ia
bles in the dormitories, fraternity
houses, and restaurants, fire fur
naces, clean house and manage board
ing clubs. Many work on farms on
Saturdays and holidays, and a num-
Der are steadily employed on the col
lege farm, Mental tasks do not
scare them. Ninety per cent of the
hired domestic service in Pullman
homes is done by college students"

LEGISLATIVE TAX
CONTROL IS LIMITED
Million Dollar Appropriation Affects
Local Levy Less Than One Mill,
Says Senator Wilmer

In an interesting letter to his con-
stituents last week Senator F. j.
Wilmer, of Rosalia, representing the
Ninth senatorial district, said, in
part:
There is a peculiar misconception
that taxes depend largely upon legis-
lative action. In fact, legislative
control of taxes is limited. A mil
lion dollars, more or less, affects the
local levy but five-siXths of one mill
Hence If by pairing to the quick
three million dollars are saved, the
local levy is reduced but two and
one-half mills, which does not bulk
largely in total levies of from 80 to
10 mills prevalent in the state. Spe-
cial school levies for 1919 in Whit
man county ran from 10 mills to
25.1 mills, the county levy 10.4O
mills, the road districts from l to
40, and municipal from IL to "a
mills. Had there been no state levy
whatever by the Legislature of 1919,
the total levy would have been re-
duced but 11.49 mills. 1t appears
that taxes like charity begin at home
The senate roster has been pub
lished. 1t shows IL lawyers, s
farmers, 3 merchants, 9 bankers, 2
doctors, l college professor and the
other various vocations or avoca-
tions. All but five have previous
legislative experience. Four are so
years or more, % between so and
60, 2 between 40 and so, and three
below 40. Not so we'll balanced as
to occupation but mostly nature men
OF experience.
"Retrenchment is on every tongue
and the members are constantly
hearing from home. Perhaps re-
trenchment for the other fellow only
is meant. The worst legislator is
the one electved to boost some
local project, school, road. or
something else. These men must
bring home the bacon or be dis
credited. Hence they will trade and
barter every interest of the state
for their detectives. and taxes mount
If consequence.

WHEAT ADVANCES;
SEVERAL SALES MADE

Slight increases in local grain
quotations, in sympathy with almost
sensational advances in the Chicago
markets, were responsible for the
sale of approximately 10000 bushels
of wheat in this district the first of
the week. Red wheat brought from
SI26 to $l,30 at the high point,
club $I34 to $1.36 and fortyfold
and bluestem $1.3S to $40. The
barley and oats markets are COM
pletely demoralized, nominal quota
ton on oats being $1,25 per hun
dredweight, with barley considerably
under that figure. The Chicago
quotations on Tuesday reached
S1,75A for March delivery Under
normal conditions this would have
meant a quotation of approximately
SLAB in Pullman.
