.cHIvALRy AND GOOD SENSE
With Embarrassing Question %
to Voters Age.
"what is your age?"

"What is your age?"
In days of old the question was per-
functorily asked and answered in
every voting booth. In the new days
of equal suffrage 1t is still asked, but
apologetically rather than perfunctor-
lily, and it is sometimes answered re-
sentfully. Occasionally a lady voter.
especially one who has attained the
dignity of middle age, considers the
question impertinent. Yet one hates
to commit perjury or anything that
smacks of perjury.
In New York state, says the Cleve-
land Plain Dealer, gallant gentle
man, who should have fiourished in the
days of knighthood, has introduced in
to the legislature of which he is a
member bin to do away with the age
question. If this measure becomes a
law 1t will be necessary for no one
to tell her-or his-exact age. 1t will
be quite sufficient for the elector to
affirm that her-or his-twenty-first
birthday has been passed.
This is chiyalry, and it Is also COM
mon sense. If one is of legal voting
age the republic should require no
more detailed Information. We all
wish the girls, young and old. to VOTE
and to vote without annoyance or re-
sentiment. Going to the polls should
be made a pleasure. An important
step will be taken if the New lork
law is enacted and copied.
Are you twenty-one?"
There is something positively de-
lightful in such question. And who
would call it impertinent?

"shimmy" Machine on Ships.

Contrasted with starving Europe"
millions of Americans are struggling
with too much fat, Glenn nj. Farley
writes in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
The shipping board was forced to put
in Skinny machines on it's trans
atlantic liners for the accommodation
of the over-fat patrons. A substan-
tial belt connected with a vibrator
gives the patient all the effect of
violent "shimmy." The belt shakes
it's victim like plate OF jelly, and bay
windows disappear like magic. One
man lost 68 pounds on the round trip
from New York to Bremen.
Americans kick about the high cost
Of living, and yet buy and consume
more food than they require, to the ex-
tent that machines must be invented
to work off the surplus fat 1t may
occur to some Of them yet that the
most economical and efficient way
would be to buy and consume less
food, and dispense with the shimmy
machine.

PRAISE JURY IN
HALL MURDER
Judge Says He is Convinced
That Duty Was Performed
in the Case

NEW BRUNSWICK, Dec. lit
was discovered today that a secret
inquiry along new lines is being con-
: Quoted in the Hall-Mills murder, and
Is Understood the case may be placed
before the December grand Jury to
be installed in Somerset next Tues
day.
There is no hint of the nature of
the new leads on which the investi-
gators are working, but they are
said to centre in the underworld
here. Persons only remotely con-
nected with the case heretofore have
been interviewed within the last day
or two.
The mystery OF why Supreme Court
Justice Charles w. Parker went to
Somerytlle yesterday to address the
september grand jury before dis
charging 1t was explained today. His
action was entirely regular, but. 1t
has been the custom for County
judge Cleary to dismiss the panel.
Justice Parker desired officially to
praise the grand jury for not return
Ing indictments in the Hall-Mills
murder, and he enforced the jurors
jury q day or two to appear before it
and express that satisfaction. His
address was as follows:
Ladies and gentlemen Of the
grand jury:
IT understand that you finished
your labors yesterday, but I feel JUS
titled In putting you to some incon-
venience because of the unusual cir
cumstances attendant upon your du-
ties Of the last two months. Ordi-
narily the grand jury would be dis
charged by the common pleas judge,
but you had duties of unusual char
acter and had to deal with a ase of
very great Importance, ordinarily de-
aroused a large amount of news
paper notoriety.
During this time the prosecutors
Of Somerset and Middlesex counties
have been busily engaged in order to
find such evidence as would fix the
blame upon the person or persons
guilty of this crime. 1t Is their re-
sponsibility to secur evidence and
yours to determine if there was suf-
ficient evidence to indict.
"As i said before, it is unusual for
q supreme court justice to attend
the discharge of the jury, but 1 felt
that it was due to this grand jury to
attend. so as to indicate my appre-
citation of the painstaking care with
which you have performed your du-
ties at this time. We do not know
what evidence you had. except what
we learned from the public prints.
No doubt the public prints were not
far wrong. In considering the
weight of evidence, you Is response
