THE GROWING CANkER IN
Am ERICA.

Are you paying any attention to the
immigration situation? Do you know
that nine-tenths of the Bolsheviki and
anarchists in the United States can
hardly speak English, have hardly any
knowledge of this country beyond the
region hat their legs and eyes and
ears take them?
Ellis Island is the New York entry
point of most of the immigrants. When
they land they find beautiful buildings
all ready for their reception. These
buildings are kept spotlessly clean:
There are Fairgrounds for the chill
dren, a nursery for the smaller ones,
nurses and doctors for the sick and a
magnificent hospital for those that
need it.
Despite this welcome, the minute
they land on the mainland from the
Ellis Island paradise they receive and
imbibe "the poison of anarchy and
revolution" Before they have gone a
block each one has been given a
pamphlet or card, printed in a half
dozen languages, containing the follow
ing statements,
"ImmigrdntS, remember that this is
q C~dpitdliStic Government. Remem-
Der it is q Dirty and Rotten Govern
ment, Where your life a0iu be exploit
ed. Join some Revolutionary Society
and help as oUerthroW this a0icEed
Government"
Here are hundreds of thousands of
simple minds arriving every year and
Receiving this creed as the very first
impression to tuck away in their
brains. Simple minds that know moth
ing about America or Americans. Is
1t to be wondered at if they join a
revolutionary society where they will
thereafter hear nothing else but the
foregoing sentiments elaborated upon
and dilated upon in season and out of
season? And so hearing become dan
gerous?
The question is: Will American citi-
Zens who know better allow this cank-
er to grow in their midst until it over
whelms them?

ANOTHER ALLEGED
ncoNsUMPTIoN" CURE.

One of the saddest things we know
of is the perennial announcement by
some fakir or some over-enthusiastlc
student hat "a cure has at last been
discovered for consumption" They all
turn out bad. Not that we would not
hail with delight a true cure, or that
we would even hint to the scientists
that they halt their quest for a cure.
But these fake announcements raise
hopes in millions of sufferers, and
their friends and relatives, thai are
doomed to disappointment.
Now we have a cable from Paris that
a cure for tuberculosis has been dis
covered in that city. We hope it is
the real goods, but the chances are
great that it is not the hoped-for cure.
Everybody's heart goes out to those
who are battling the dreaded white
plague. These people are real fight
ers-real heroes. They never give up
until the enemy takes its toll.
Our advice to the tubercular and
their friends is to continue to follow
the instructions of their physicians.
DO what your doctor says, get all the
fresh air possible, do not overdo, rest
as much as possible, don't worry.
And fight on-and on.

THE THING TO DO is TO
ADVERTISE ON A
DECLINING MARKET

We have been suspicious for a long
time that the National Chamber of
Commerce was an institution that to
say the least is u~nprogressive. Here
and there we caught them Issuing
statements and theories that belonged
to the latter part of the 18th century,
indicating hat this National Chamber
is ruled to a considerable extent by
the men who were leaders in business
and industry back in the eighties and
nineties.
1t is not long since this same cham
Der began a campaign for the so-called
'open shop" and, whether the open
shop is a good thing or not, botched
the campaign so badly that the third
decade of the twentieth century is
ashamed of it.
Now we find the said chamber start
ing a survey ito the end hat operat-
ing costs shall be cut down during the
present depression by manufacturers,
jobbers and retail merchants" Good
thing. Very. But the very first ques-
ton asked it:
What have you done to reduce your
publicity costs to d normal basis? %
That is, we presume, to the basis OF
the 10Th century.
Evidently these people have been
sound asleep for years. Evidently nc
inkling has reached them of what the
extraordinary use of advertising pub
licity has done during the past five
years. Probably the biggest retail ad'
vertiser in Eastern America is Edward
A. Filane, of Boston, and he says that
he will INCREASE HIS ADVERTIS.
ING ON A DECLINING MARKET il
order to keep UP his profits. All ovel
the countryc in big towns and little
important merchants are saying the
same thing, and acting on it, because
they know what advertising does.
The National Chamber of Commerce
should retire their old fogies.

THE MAN
WITH VIGOR
A WINNER
No Wonder Some Folks Have a Hard
Time Getting Ahead.
1T TAKES RED BLOOD TO
SUCCEED.
Pepto-Mangan Restores Vigor.
A Really Wonderful Tonic.
Purifies and Tones Up the Blood.

1t takes vitality to succeed because
success requires hard work.
Some days you get along all right.
Other times you have to strain and you
overexert yourself. When that hap
pens, your system is .overtaxed. 1t
shows first in the blood. The overeX-
ertion causes an increase in waste
matter. The blood struggles to take
care of it all. Gradually the poisons
in the, waste increase too fast for the
blood. Then the blood becomes
clogged.
First thing you know you feel all
tired out. Sleep does you little good.
You can't eat well. You wonder what
the trouble is. S
Then is the time to get some Pepto-
Mangan, the blood building tonic. Take
it for awhile till your blood is cleared
up. You'll Don have plenty of rich,
red blood. Notice the difference in
your work. Your old-time energy re-
turns. You win out because you are
stronger.
Pepto-Mangan is sold in both liquid
and tablet form. The tablets have the
same medicinal value as the liquid.
Take either kind you prefer. But be
sure you get the genuine Pepto-
Mangan Guides" The full name,
Guides Pepto-Mangan," should be on
the package. Advertisement.

BOY o NEWS.
Troop FiUe.

Troop Five now has its own station
cry, which is very attractive, being
printed on white paper with purple
ink, which is the troop color.
The troop held a bicycle hike Satur-
day, Mar. 10, at which time about 80
members turned out. The boys are
doing real scouting these days and are
building log cabins for their camp
this summer. After the camp is COM
pleted and the grove cleaned up, the
camp will observe regular opening GER
emonies, at which time all troops will
be invited.
The troop is doing a lot of hard
study. During the last week Patrol
Leader Jones passed his second merit
badge, which is personal health. Only
a couple of months ago he was award
ed a merit badge in first aid,
Patrol Leader Ralph Schussler also
passed a merit badge for music in the
past week. This is IN of the hardest
merit badges to obtain. To get it a
scout must be able to read and write
music and to play a standard instru-
ment used in orchestra work.
Several other first class scouts in
Troop Five are planning to take merit
badge examinations in the next few
weeks.
The troop is going into extensive
scout training in view of the a1nual
Southern New Jersey Field Meet,
which will be held on the Million Dol
lar Pier in the early part of April.
1t made a very good showing at the
meet in Vineland, being seventh out
of over fifty troops.
The troop is very anxious to book
base ball games with first-class base
ball teams anywhere in South Jersey.
All players to be scouts in good stand
ing. We are now arranging our sum-
mer schedule. Write at once to the
Scout Master.
The pioneer patrol of Troop Five
have made a board containing all of
the tenderfoot knots, which they have
put up in their club rooms for the as
sistance of new boys. Ernest Hartley
is leader of this progressive patrol.
The First Aid Patrol held an inter-
esting meeting at the home of DR..
Madden on N. Main street, Tuesday
evening, Mar %. Scoutmaster Ellenberg
was present and reviewed the boys in
their ~second-class First Aid. This pa
troll ranks as first in the troop and is
doing wonderful work under charge of
their leader, Oliver Jones.
Scout Training Comes in Useful.
A good example of how scout train
ing comes in handy in a boys every
day life was demonstrated last week
when Scout Francis Jones, living in
Linwood, was putting up beaver board
for his father with a sharp iathing
Matched. In some manner the Ratchet
accidentally slipped, nearly seVering
his index finger. Remembering his
scout training he put a tourniquet ban
dage to stop the flow of blood, which
was coming in quick spurts from an
artery. Scout Jones had remembered
his first aid instructions and was able
to stop the flow of blood until the doc
tor arrived.
