III SICK WORLD

Although we've long been clasping
the snowy flag of peace, the world is
sick and gasping, and horrors never
cease. Sad tales Of famine reach us
from many stricken lands, for aid
the starved beseech us, and raise
despairing hands. By many an an
cient river, on many a palmy plain,
the people ask for liver, and ask for
1t in vain. And there is endless
plotting, and there are fceaseless
strikes; the Petes are always swat
ting and being slugged by Mikes.
And ousted kings are planning to
try another throw, forgetful of the
canning they got some time ago.
And nations are pursuing old paths,
with martial brags. and govern
ments are chewing all kinds Of futile
rags. The Germans, still denying
the justice of their debt, are evi-
IDENTIFY trying to WEIGH on every bet.
The Russ still raises thunder, the
Greeks scrap with the Turks; the
world is rem asunder, there's carbon
in it's works. The world is shot to
pieces, it's records one of crimes, as
| have told my nieces a hundred
thousand times. I weep when 1 am
reading the daily grist of news; the
world is sick and bleeding, and
Peace is full of booze.

it by putting the most Of good into
1t. ~
There can be no doubt that this
would be a good world II we an
agreed to be good and do good, ana
then stuck to our agreement. Their
is not very much opportunity for
any one of us to improve the nur
world by any single effort that the
whole world can feel and attribute
to US.
But there Is a very good chance
that any one Of us a so change his
attitude toward the world as to get
more of good out of it than he now
is getting, and by that process give
to it more than he now is giving.
The question is too practical fof
us to waste much time over It. Life
is in a hurry, and it all moves in
one directions; there are nc currents
moving backward toward the cradle.
1t would be interesting to know the
| occasion of all the shooting. but 1t is
| worth while to be sure that we get
the utmost out of the play. and that
we perform our own part In It

ton of the character of the world by
helping to make it better.

the President determined, however. they ac-
quiesced with not too much grace. This Harvey
episode would indicate that the senator's had
adopted other means to circumvent the Presi-
dent.
1t is now said that Ambassador Harvey Will
announce to the world the Presidents plan
for an association of nations, which he has been
talking about so long. Coming from such a
spokesman il is bound to be received with sus-
picion. Better, by far, for the President to be
his own spokesman. There is nothing to pre-
vent the President having direct communication
with the American people.

RAYMOND BEING TRIED OUT

II is natural that friends and admirers of
Commissioner Thomas l.. Raymond. Of New
ark, should look upon him as available timber
for the Republican nomination for governor
since his phenomenal run for reelection as
commissioner in Newark recently. Mr.. Ray
mond was high man on the ticket, leading
former Mayor Gillen by nearly $4,000 votes.
Mr.. Raymond has served a term as mayor OF
Newark before the commission form of govern
ment was adopted and he was a candidate for
the Republican nomination for governor in
1919. At that time he ran a poorthird at the
primaries, receiving less than 10000 votes
whereas Bugbee received nearly $4,000 votes
and Runyon received 57,s76.
Outside of Newark there is no reason to be-
lieve that Raymond's popularity has increased
any since the last gubernatorial election. The
Runyon candidacy is the one than stands out
most prominently, but because Of his indie
pendence and refusal to be anybody's tool, GER
tain influential leaders in the Republican party
would like to prevent him getting the nomina-
ton IL they can. To that end Senator Mackay,
of Bergen county, has been trotted forth for
the public to gaze upon with the idea Of using
him to kill the Runyon boom. But Maokay
has not taken very well. There is no question
ohS p'hhS otNftNNiy thO "a ~
would not be surprising. however, If the Mack
ay support was gradually shifted to Raymond
as one more likely to win popular support.
But a bigger man than Raymond will be
needed to keep the Union county senator from
needed to keep the Union county senator from
getting the Republican nomination. Had Run
yon been nominated two years ago it is pretty
generally admitted that New Jersey would have
a Republican governor today and the state
would have been spared much of the humilia-
ton it has undergone since Governor Edwards
took office. The people have learned their les
son. Runyon's standing throughout the state is
even better today that it was in 1919 even
though he was then the acting governor. Run
yon's strength grows the longer he Is in the
public eye. There is no doubt that he is still
the favorite as the Republican candidate for
governor next year.

There is a popular play, now on the
boards in several cities. in which
the tension Of an over-strained trag-
edy, which the spectators at differ
ent stages according to their insight
discover to be burlesque, is relieved
by a character who energies at each
moment of high suspense and asks,
whats all the shooting for?"
Some such question needs to be
propounded at frequent intervals as
one beholds the drama of life. What
is 1t all about? What kind OF world
Is this?
There are those who believe it to
be a bad world. hopelessly bad.
There are others who believe that
the effort to make it appear good is
the effort to create perfection out Of
the sum of imperfections. There are
others who hold that it is the best
of all possible worlds.
OF me it seems that this may be
the most profitable form of the
question. We do not know enough
about other worlds; we have no ade-
quate basis Of comparison.
To me it seems that this may be
most practical question is how the
world can be made better, and how

Q. Where can I secure an instru-
ment which will locate gold and sill
yer. which has been buried for a
number of years?-G. A. r.
A. Many inquiries have been re-
ceived regarding. divining rods,
mineral rods. ETC., with reference
to their adaptability for locating
buried treasure, gold and silver
ores, petroleum., etc. The extrava-
CANT claims set forth by people who
sell such contrivances have never
been supbstantiated. The U. 8. Geo.
logical Survey traces the history of
the divining rod, Gas this is called)
back to the sixteenth century. Spe-
cial instruments such as the dip
needle, the magnetometer, and the
dial compass have been successfully
used in prospecting for magnetic
iron ores in this and other coun-
tries. Such instruments are not
useful in prospecting for precious
metals or ores that have no mag
| netic effect.

We fear that Governor Edwards Is given to
loose talk, or at least is inclined to make e-
travagant statements which he does not actual
ly mean. His now famous remark about making
New Jersey as wet as the Atlantic ocean Is we'll
remembered as a part of his campaign bunk of
two years ago. In this connection it is inter-
esting to note that New Jersey has been getting
dryer every day since the governor announced
his determination, and today the state has one
of the most drastic prohibition enforcement
laws on it's statute books of any state in the
Union.
The latest ebullition on the part of the gov
ernor is in regard to improved roads. In an
address before the New Jersey Automobile
Trades Association in Newark recently he said
ho wanted ito see a hard road built past every
farm house in the state" 1t must be admitted
that this ambition is a much more worthy one
than that in reference to the wetness Of the
state. but it is just as visionary. New Jersey
cannot afford to build hard roads on all the main
arteries of travel in the most prosperous farm
ing districts, let alone on the hundreds of side
roads and by-ways that spread out all over each
county.
However. the governor is entitled to credit for
provement, which is more than can be said OF
his intentions regarding the wetness of the state.
