MORE FACTS CALLED FOR

Judge Days demand for more publicity regarding the
dismissal OF ihe Board of IIealth's technician is timely. The
Judge hal before him the young man who had pleaded guilty
TO placing a bomb i'll a milk wagon in this city with the idea
of destroying The vehicle and its contents. Sentence was to
have been pronounced, but the judge has put off sentencing
the prisoner because of recent developments in the milk sit.
uation in this city.
The public here feel pretty much as the judge does
punishment for the crime to which he has pleaded guilty, it
is a pity TO let those whom The young man represented es-
cape entirely. That there are men higher up involved in
the scandel is quite evident and it. is the duty of the authori-
lies to brina these men to justice.
The sensational dismissal Of the health boards tech
nician right in the midst of the affair casts a reflection and
a suspicion GU that young man that is either justified or not.
If there is anything more than incompetency involved the
public ought to know it. If it was only incompetency, then
IN what way was the technician incompetent and why die it
take the board so long to find it out?
Charges have been made thai some of the milk coming
to this city las been tempered with. Judging from the facts
already known regarding the milk situation there is basis for
this belief. The technician who has just been dismissed was
the one who made the analysis of the milk reaching this
city. 1t is significant, too, that some of the same milk was
taken to plainfield to be analysed and it is said that the
analysis made there did not agree with the analysis made
mere.
Naturally, the question arises in many minds whether
or MT tbs young man is being made the goat. He is dis
public that all the facts be known. Judge DAILY puts THIS
demand squarely before the local authorities. 1t is up to
them to be a little more open in their proceedings.
1t is very evident that there is great deal being con-
cealed in lie milk situation. The public backs Judge DAILY il
he demand FOR all the facts.

Unknown Islands

The reported discovery by an
Americon pleasure craft of hitherto
unknown islands in the Pacific near
kingman's Shoal, south of Hawaii,
has been followed by a statement
from the photographic office of the
United States Navy that the reported
find probably is a rediscovery of
Washington and Palmyra islands,
situated nea the latitude and lon
gitude given. A bulletin from the
Washington. D.. C. headquarters of
the National Geographic Society
briefly describes the islands men,
toned:
There would be nothing new in
the rediscoVery of Pacific islands,"
says the pclletin. Many OF thea
have never been inhabited or were
abandoned years ago, and to all ap-
pearances are virgin islands. A num-
Der of small islands have been re-
ported as new finds yer and over
again, and in several cases double
an dtreble names testify to this cir
cumstance. The most recently re-
ported discovery is in a region fair
ly well f~requented by ships since 1t
is within 800 miles of the mid-Pa-
cific station of the Canada.Australia
cable on Tanning Island n is even
closer to the steamer lane between
Honolulu and American Samoa.
Only Six Feet Above Sea
Palmyra Island, which lies about
so miles south of Kingman's Reef,
was discovered 100 years g by the
American ship Palmyra. In 1914
the United States took formal pos
session OF the island and made it a
part of the Territory of Hawaii. 1t
is of coral. five and one-half miles
long by one and one<halt wide and
it's highest point is only six feet
above the sea, making it a precarious
place of residence in case a tidal
wave should strike it. There are no
inhabitants.
Washington Island, about 100
miles southeast of Palmyra and
only rs miles from the Tanning
Island cable station. was discov-
cred in 1858. 1t is three and one
half by one and one-half miles and
it's highlands top those of Pal
myra by four feet. The soil Is rich
and the island is covered by a lux
uriant growth of cocoanut trees.
Something over 100 people live on
the island.
"Kingman's Reef itself has on its
rim two tiny islands that have ap-
reared on large-scale charts Of the
central Pacific for la years"

TIGHTENING WAR DEBTS

The French government is said to be playing a shrewd
game with re gard to the German reparation problem. 1t all
hangs on the action of Great Britain.
The French, admitting Germany's difficulty in making
the reparatiop payments, hint their Willingness to be lenient
with Germany if Britain will be lenient with France. Bri-
lain has suggested that very thing, more than once, but has
ALWAYS wanted France to act first, and has delayed also in
the hope that America would take the initiative in being
ienient With Britain. France, always canny in business
dealss., wants Britain to take the first step. The idea is that
- nLtain should cancel the war debts owed her by France, or
y large part of them; then France will do the same for Ger
many, and the European situation will be eased.
Great Britain may be induced 10 do it, at that, for Britis3
statesmen ard business men no longer indulge in the delu-
sion that international war debts can be paid in full. 1t
NAV be. TOO, that if this policy is followed, the United States
N course OF lJre WI TALL into line and make concessions t.
some of her foreign debtors, especially France, which are
not contemplated now. Many Americans believe such &C
lion would pay in the end, by aiding in a general reconstruc-
ton and business revival. w sl,- 4.s.:z .i!ss!stN stsT#MAS

A. Unless you are playing a
course that has a local rule chang
ing the penalty OF stroke and dis
lance for a shot out of bounds you
will be lying seven and playing
eight when you come up to your
ball.
@. What is the origin OF the SUI
perstitious fear of ~two-dollar bills,
and why is the corner tom away?
IT. S.,
A. There 10 no national or univer-
sal superstition regarding the two
dollar bill. Probably the reason it is
considered unlucky is that it is easily
mistaken for a one dollar bill Tear
ing the corner off makes it more
conspicuous and not SC likely to
be paid out instead Of a one-dollar
bill.

@. What is industrial eeiciency?-
NJ. K.
A. Efficiency may be defined as
the industrial relation between what
is and what ought to be, between
the actual and the standard. An
other definition is that efficiency is
to do the standard performance in
the standard time. at tho standard
place, for the standard cost.
@. When a buzzard sails against a
stiff wind, what propels it?-W. A.

A. The Biological Survey sayS
that the answer is not definitely
known. Part of the force of the
wind is USED by the feathers in turn
Ing up which enables the bird to use
q form Of coastins. 1t is also sup
posed that the force of gravity pull
ing the bird to the ground also as
sists the bird.

A. The Geological Survey says
Perth Amboy evening news., 1922-07-15

that it finds no record of producing
wells with a depth of 5000 or more
feet. There are wells of this depth
being drilled, but SO far no pro-
duction has been recorded. In the
Richfield district there is a pro-
ducing well of ABS feet and in the
Santa Fe Springs field one of 4.6s2
feet.
@. Is the Salon Care named foi
a French collector?-H. P.
A. The room is so called because
it is square.
Q. What is the dwarf language?-
w. B. c.
Ain the old Morse the echo is
called the dwarf language, proba-
bly, because it was thought to be
produced by dwarfs within the
mountains initiating the sounds
from without which they heard.
@. Does the time of planting make
any difference in the life of a plant?
r. o.
A. The same plant, such as wheat
may be an annual If planted early
and a biennial If planted late. Sim
ilarly plants such as@the castor oil
bean which are p~erenniaus in an
equable climate are often ANNALS
where there is a winter.
@. Can a caterpillar sting?-M. z
R.
A. The caterpillar does sting and
it is found that its netting hairs
may be blown through the air, lodge
on a person and produce a rash.
This accounts for the stings people
often receive when there has been
no contact with caterpillars.

Union County Park Commission has just been present
ed with four acres of land along The Railway river at Rah-
way for park use. Since Union county has passed the 200.-
900 mark in + population the movement for a county park sys-
tenn has been progressing and it is likely that before ver5
long The park scheme in Union county will be linked up with
the excellent park system of Essex county, bringing this
wonderful development right down to the borders of Middle
sex county.
With Middlesex nearing the zoo, 900 mark in popula-
ton, it will not be long before the agitation for a park sys-
tenn here vii! be started. The tract at Menlo Park already
owned by the county would make an ideal beginning. With
Woodbridge township, which lies between the Menlo Park
site and the Union county line, advocating a township park
system, il might be said that the movement for a county park
system il MlddleseX is already under way.
If the Board of Freeholders would only look ahead a
little they would hesitate before disposing of the Menlo Park
tract. 1t has wonderful possibilities for development as q
park. With Union county making such progress Middlesex
ought to be setting ready. What a wonderful thing it would
be to have enc continuous park drive all the way across the
state.

GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies are, Using

Hair that loses it's color and fustre;
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
Iifeless. is caused by lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
UP a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful.
and thousands OF women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which Is so at,
tractive, use only this old-time recipe
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition Of other
ingredients by asking at any drug
store for a bottle OF "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell 1t has
been applied. You just dampen
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair. taking one
small strand at a time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides Beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications, it also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives 1t
an appearance Of abundance.

TAKE SALTS TO
FLUSH KIDNEYS
Eat less meat if you feel Backachy OF
Bladder troubles you-Salts is
fine for Kidneys.

Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their efforts
to filter it from the system. Regular eat
ers of meat must flush the kidneys occa-
sionally. You must relieve them like you
relieve your bowels; removing all the
acids, waste and poison, else you feel a
dull misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache, dir
ziness, your stomach sours, tongue is
coated and when the weather is bad you
have rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment; the channels
often get irritated, obliging you to get
up two or three times during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take table
spoonful in glass of water before break
fast for few days and your kidneys will
then act fine and bladder disorders dis
appear. This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice, COIN
bined with lithia, and has been used for
generations to clean and stimulate slug
gish kidneys and stop bladder irritation.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; harmless and
makes q delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then, thus avoiding
serious kidney and bladder diseases,
