APPEAL RENEWED
FOR RED CROSS AID
Roll Call to Date Falls Far
Short and Deficit Is
Feared.

With every official of the District
chapter Of the American Red Cross
and all volunteer workers for this
community legion of mercy calling
upon their resources to make it's quota
of $4,000 in the sixth annua! roll call
of that organization. an appeal Is
sounded to citizens of the city who
have not already answered the call
of the Red Cross to enroll before
nksgiving night. The total con-
tributions to date amount to only
$le.254. which. unless increased by
tomorrow night. will leave the local
chapter a deficit of $27,746. showing
Washington's failure to support this
benefcent organization.
Under the direction of John II.
Clapp. chairman of the roll call. every
possible medium for raising the
amount necessary to enable the Dis
trict chapter to continue it's humani-
tartan work for 1929 has been tried.
In the face of the failure to make
it's quota, the management Of the
campaign maintains faith In the
Samaritan qualities OF the citizenry
of Washington.
Beginning today. all contributions
for the Red Cross should be addressed
to the District chapter headquarters,
at 16 Jackson place northwest. as the
campaign headquarters closes tonight.

GOSPEL MISSION PLANS
DINNER FOR THE NEEDY
500 Men, Women and Children to
Partake of Thanksgiving
Day Hospitalities.

Many persons regard Thanksgiving
day as just another holiday, welcomed
annually for the respite it affords
from daily routine. but not necessarily
to be observed literally as day for
giving thanks-perhaps because these
fortunate persons assume that the
blessings they enjoy are due them.
To 500 needy men, women and chill
dren of Washington who will gather
tomorrow afternoon to partake of a
hounteous free dinner at the Gospel
Mission. on John Marshall place, the
day will mean exactly what our fore
fathers intended it to mean. and just
as the early colonists offered a prayer
of gra itud" for provil n ia supply
of food, SO will the worthy beneficial
ries Of the missions welfare program
tomorrow take time. before starting
to eat. to join in prayer of thanks.
AppetizinE Feast Provided.
According to Rev G. W. Cory, SUI
perintendent of the Gospel Mission,
the expression of appreciation II be
voiced by these diners will be sincere
Tor they are to sit down to as appatiz-
ing layout of hot dishes as will
grace many of the local Thank Esgiving
dinner tables tomorrow
Here is the menu: Roast pork with
dressing and apple sauce. mashed po-
tatnes. sweet potatoes; roast beef
baked macaroni, dessert. milk, ruTee
bread. butter and fruit. This fare will
be served In the cafe Of The mission
house. In addition TO the meals pro-
vided ri the mission. fifty heaping
baskets of the same kind of dinner
VIII be sent to families through out
the city who otherwise would probabl
look upon Tha nksgi,ing with cold hearts
and empty stOmachs.

District Jail will be presented by the
mission workers with oranges, apples
and candy.

GRADE CROSSING ELIMINATION ORDERED

Perth Amboy's grade crossings must go. The Public
Utility Commission hath so decreed and its order appears
10 be final. Naturally, the plans as adopted, being a slight
modification of the plans drawn by the railroad engineers,
are not going to suit everybody, but that they are the best
that can be devised in justice to all concerned is apparent
and the city as a whole is going to be greatly benefited
when the work is finished.
The utility board has declared that the grade crossings
in this city are dangerous to public safety within the mean.
ing OF the grade crossing act and the upholding OF this act
when the city of Paterson carried the matter into the courts
in regard to the elevation of the tracks of the Erie railroad
through that city, has put the utility board in an "unques-
toned position to order the elimination of grade crossings"
From this it would seem that any injunctions or writs
OF certiorari or any other appeals that the city or any indivi-
duals may seek will be of little or no avail. The Public
Utility Commission, being a public body appointed for the
after hearing both sides of the question and examining the
various sells of plans submitted, has rendered a decision
which it believes to be fair and equitable to all. Under the
circumstances it is doubtful if the courts will entertain a
motion of any sort made for the purpose of upsetting TIE
utility boards decision. Should any appeal be made the
chances are it would serve only to block the progress of the
work for a time for in the end there is hardly any question
about the utility board being upheld.
Having put up the best fight possible it behooves the city
to accept the decision of the Public Utility Commission with
good grace. Fair minded people will realize the difficulty
that has had to be encountered in solving the problem here.
There is hardly a city in the state where the complications
as far as railroads are concerned are greater. An ideal plan
is impossible. 1t is a question whether the safe guarding
- she.lives of the thousands of people crossing the railroad
tracks here daily is of more importance to us than the dis
fgurement of the city in two or three places. The answerl
is obvious.
The utility board has ordered the railroads to have theI
of elimination started by January 4 and it is to be completed
within a year. This means also a new station for the city
and many other improvements. Altogether it is something
really worth while and it behooves the city to cease further
agitation as far as the plans are concerned and devote its
attention to the vast amount of work that the municipality
will have to do on its own account in connection with the i'm
rrovement.

THE MUSICAL DOCTOR

Radio fans will be pleased to learn that music has medici-
nal powers, according to DR.. Alexander Lambert of Bellevue
Hospital, New York City.
Discussing the therapeutical value of music. he makes out
such a good case that the audience cheers and votes enough
money to install a super-radiophone in Bellevue. Says DR..
Lambert:
patients, but do not for all. Itcalls up cheerful thoughts and
lessons monotony, and it is Of enormous benefit to the nervous
ly broken down, to children, and to most surgical cases, for
music appeals more to the emotions than to reason,
People differ, not in opinion but in stages of intellectual
and spiritual development. So some want Jazz and some want
fugues, and neither is soothed by the music that pleases the
other. Music might heal or injure. Wherever it cheers,
though, it heals"
Jazz might cure one dying person-and kill another,
thick with the dust of culture. What's one man s meat is an
other poison.
Maybe you have visions of a new medical fad. impending,
psychoanaylsis and endocrine gland doctoring showed aside to
make way Tor a new school of doctors armed with ~saxophones
and fddles.
Fear not, the medicinal value of music is nothing new.
1t was discussed enthusiastically by leading European
physicians, in the Philosophical Magazine for May, 1906.
Among great practitioners who prescribed music were
Dusaux, Burette, De Marian and Bianchini.
Some of them went as far as to believe that music could
cure sciatic rheumatism. But, in the main, they believed that
musics greatest medical powers were in diverting the atten-
ton, soothing the nerves, making people forget imaginary all
ments, and curing the insane.
You recall, further back, how David was employed in his
youth to cure Sauls mental arrangements by harp playing.
Varro thought music good for govt. The ancients believed
fever could be cured by singing, plague by a Tyre and deaf
ness by proper blasting with a trumpet.
The commonest cause of sickness is the body's organs get
ting out of harmony with each other. Back of this is inhar-
moniOus nervous condition or unbalanced funcHOning of ell.
docrine glands.
And, back of that, is inharmonious thought.
Music puts the soul in tune, eases the aching brain, soothes
the nerves. 1t is not far from those to bodily harmony
health. This, of course, drifts into hypnotism, like the charmed
cobra swaying to the Hindu ~jugger's reed flute.
The radio craze may do the national health more. good
than a freight-trainful of quinine, calomel and sassafras tea,
provided it doesn't circulate too much jazz-the medical
opium.

vINpIcArIoN FOR DIRECT PRIMARY

No greater vindication for the direct primary law is
needed than the results of the recent primary elections in
Indiana and Pennsylvania. In Indiana Albert ]. Beveridge,
a progressive Republican, has been nominated by the Repub
lieans of that state for United States senator over Senator
New, who was seeking a denomination and who was the
candidate favored by the regular Republican organization
of that state.
In Pennsylvania the 'old guard has received an even
greater shock at the hands of the rank and file of the Repub-
lican voters by the nomination of Clifford PiDchot, another
of the Roosevelt progressives in the Republican party for
governor of that great state over George E. Alter, who had
the backing of the heretofore impregnable Republican ma
chine. 81
Can anyone imagine for an instant that either of these
high class, MISUNDERSTANDING men could have been nom
mated at one of the old-time conventions where everything
is cut and dried by a few leaders of the organization and the
slate thus arranged put through without a hitch by the hand
picked delegates? They would not have had a chance. The
marty bosses in both instances did everything possible to pre-
vent the nomination of these men, but, thanks to the direct
primary, the final say was in the hands of the voters and they
made their own selection in defiance of the machine.
! 1t is a healthy indication for the Republican party. 1t
puts the stamp of progress upon it and gives hope for the
future. With such men as Beveridge and Pinchot occupy
ing high places in the party councils the party OF Lincoln
and Roosevelt can once more appeal to the people with an
honesty of purpose that will inspire confidence.
And it is the direct primary, one Of the fundamental
principles for which Theodore Roosevelt stood, that made
such q healthy condition possible.

THE SQUIRE OF DANES
TOLD OF BY HASKIN
Daily Letter by Frederic J. Haskin

NEW YORK CITY, May 49,
Among the many curious entertain
ment features which New York has
to offer is the professional escort.
No woman has to be a wailf1ower
here as long as she car afford the
price of one. Be she ever so lacking
in masculine admirers, and ever SO
unlikely to- acquire any, h may
nevertheless enjoy her share of the
brilliant, entertaining night life of
New York by the simple ~expedien.
of hiring one of these professional
Squires of Danes.
Some earnest student of human
itarian problems has said that New
Yczk provides the noblest form of
social service sof any city in the
world. He was not referring to the
Squire of Danes. Yet the unique
nobility of this calling is self-evi-
dent. Consider its requirements:
midnight the Squire must devote all
of bis talents and energy to the ca
tertainment of lonely, unattached
ladies'. He must escor them hither
and thither, in Difference to their
commands, to theatres and cabarets.
hotels. dances and chop suey joints.
to famous downtown restaurants
and famous uptown roof gardens
anywhere they want to go in their
pursuit of a good time. They may
be homely and badly dressed; he
must pay them delicate compli-
ments. They may be clumsy and
awkward: he must guide them safe
ly and deity about a ballroom foo.
They may be dull and slightly deaf;
he must keep up a stimulating con-
versation. Or they may be beautiful,
gracious and rich; he must keep his
distance and never presume upon
the acquaintance.
Under the circumstances, ii is not
surprising to learn from one who
has studied the species that the pro-
fessional Squire of Danes is born
not made. There are only a few of
them in New York-never enough
to supply the demand-and even
these are always threatening to quit
their calling for a less exacting
trade. They are not to be confused
with the smooth-voiced lounge liz
ards who haunt the cabarets and
dance halls at night in an unofficial
capacity, nor with the fiashingly-
dressed ~hangers-on in some of the
so-caHed dancing academies on
Broadway. Women sometimes en-
ploy these types as escorts. it IS
true, but they do so with great risk
to their diamonds, good names and
other negotiable securities.
The Squire of Danes on the other
hand, is reliable. discreet, and we'll
versed in social etiquette. His dress
ana conduct are strictly conserve
tive. SO that. if suddenly confronted
by a friend or relative. a woman can
easily introduce him as a perfectly
proper social acquaintance. HIS
services are not in demand by flap
