PUBLIC OPINION.

The eyes of the State are upon the Normal School
Commission in regard to the location of the new normal
schools The matter is of statewide interest and the
whole people are expecting the schools to be located at
the places where they will best the interests of the
people of the mountains 1t is the knowledge of these
facts that has given the people of West Liberty hope in
the outcome. We believe the Commission is trying to
arrive at the right conclusion and that in the end they
will arrive at the facts in regard to all the places seeking
the location of the eastern school, and we believe that
closer investigation will reveal to them that West Liberty
is ncomparaby the most desirable place to locate the
school to insure its success in point of attendance.
Every town contending for the eastern school has
had ryout in supporting schools West Liberty and
every has shown that they not furnish the school
spirit necessary to the of big school, The STU
dents seeking education do not want to and do not at
tend the schools already established at those places On
the other hand the high school at West Liberty though
only county affair." yearly crowded beyond its capacity
and the school spirit ssuch that larger school would
pe we'll attended. "
The local environment around West Liberty is such
to attract the attendance of normal school students
No vices or temptations are here to deract from heahfu
work in school, Practically every county in the noun
IS except those in the immediate locality of the other
towns have heartily endorsed West Liberty, showing taht
public sentiment in the counties to be served is largely
in favor of our town. So in the endwe believe that the
Commission will decide upon West1iberty.

OF DRY ENFORCEMENT

NEWARK, April 10.-San Henry
Cone. of South Amboy, today took
full charge of prohibition enforce
ment in New Jersey. Mr.. Cone is

and will direct the entire work of
the state from this place. Theodore

who has been in charge of the state
enforcement since before the holi-
days. left for his new post in Utah.
Mr.. Cone, in taking charge of the

per cent. efficiency from the agents

set a standard which is high and
that every agent must come up to
that standard. He urged the citi-
zens TO report information concern

taken, as only in this way can 100
per cent efficiency be expected.

cities and that he has been assured

PLACES co
OVER THE TOP
SO. River and Metuchen Raise
Quota in Salvation Army
Drive

IL por from the surrounding
towns of Middlesex county may be
taken as a criterion. Perth Amboy
will more than meet its quota in the
Salvation Army Home Service drive.
according to General Chairman Emil
Stremlau today. These reports are
to the effect that both South River
and Metuchen already have more
than subscribed their quotas and the
drive does not officially open until
April II.
According to figures received by
the local committee South River
has raised s33S.S3, which is consid-
erably more than the quota OF S2oO
asked in that municipality. One
thing about these figures that is par
ticularly pleasing to the local COM
mittee, is the fact that the amount
raised this year is considerably more
than in 1921 when S21S.55 was sub
scribed and in 1920 when 1888 was
subscribed. From these figures II
would seem as il the people will in
crease their subscriptions over last
year. Metuchen's quota Is $500 n
this is reported to be more
than subscribed although the exact
figures are not known.
S. H. NJ. Agns. of Newark, who Is
in charge of the drive in Middlesex
and Monmouth counties is in con-
ference with Mr.. Stremlau today
completing the formation or the
various teams which will have
charge of the local campaign and
doing other organization work. Mr..
Stremlau stated today that the line
up of the local organization for the
drive would be ready for publica-
ton tomorrow.

SIGNS CONTRACT TO keep
SOBER FOR FIVE YEARS

A solemn contract to remain sober
for five years was entered into at
the police court this morning. The
unusual arrangement is between Re-
corder Harold f. Pickersgill and An
drew Dicke, siXty-six years old, of
$50 Hall avenue, who was before the
judge, this morning charged with
drunk and disorderly conduct.
Dicke was brought in by Patrol
man James Egan, in n of the
most complete states of intoxication
ever seen at the police station. Evil
IDENTIFY he had imbibed n powerful
and bad-acting potion that not only
affected his powers of locomotion but
also his speech. Dicke is declared
to have been one of the champion
loud takers of the city during his
period &c intoXication.
During his hearing this morning
il developed that it vas Dicke's
first fall from grace in five years. In
that time he had been a model citi-
zen and he was properly penitent
when his drunken actions were de-
scribed to him. Swearing f~ervently
that he would be a model of pro-
priety for another five years, Dicke
was allowed to go free by the re-
corder the first time in some months
that a drunk has escaped payment of
SIS.

and domestic in equal degree in the
same person. A professional
woman of the latter sort Is to De
seen at the Strand theatre, where
she is now appearing on the screen
in a William Fox picture entitieo
ANY Wife" She is Pearl White
The noted film star-who has been
often described as 'the best known
woman film actress in the world.
Pearl Whites philosophy of lie
may be summed up in five words:
Don't grow old with age" But how
is one to live up to this philosophy!
Miss White has been for years be-
fore the public: and although she
has not been so very long on earth,
a point worth emphasizing is that
she appears to be just as young as
when she began her stage career.
How does she do it? She says:
IT am still a young woman accord
ing 10 the calendar. But | have
been a hard worker. In fact, my
work has been so constant ana so
wearing, physically, that l am sure
it would have aged a very large
majority of girls. The trouble with
most girls, I am convinced-at least
in the motion picture BUSINESS
that they have no system of counter
action-no fixed interest to which
they devote their leisure as enthu-
siastically as they devote their
working hours TO the studio. In
other words, they permit their minds
to run always in the same groove
or rut. They get no reaction. Hence
they miss the mental as well as the
physical balance which is a preser-
vative OF youth.
IT do not believe that any mi

sessed of unusual beauty. In the
second place. happiness is sure 10

Of public appearance wears off.

Dmistriff was locked up and when
arraigned before United States Com
missioner John Delaney, was held IN
$4,000 bail for a hearing tomorrow.
He was locked up in the Essex
county Jail in default of bail.
A number of these raised bills

TRENTON. April 10-FollowinG
closely upon the heels Of the criti-

attitude with respect to compen-
sation by the federal government for
he service men. heard in the con-
Vention here of the Veterans OF For

cation from the executive commit
Tee of the New Jersey Department
az the American Legion. The at
titude taken by the two senators
from this state has been condemn
ed by the committee in session here.
This body went on record as declar-
ing that the position of Messrs. Ere
finghuysen and Edge with respect TO
the question Of adjusted compensa-

This action was taken by The be-

convention of the veterans OF tut
ign Wars in which messages the
lelerates asked the two members
from New Jersey in the upper
House OF Congress to lend their
i'd and influence in favor or some
sIan of compensation.
At the meeting of the Legion eX-
ecutive committee there was a re-
declaration in favor of the adJust-
cd compensation program. TINS ac-
lion was taken because some oppoh-
ents OF this subject have endeaVored
to create the false impression that
he American Legion of New Jersey
6 not whole heartedly behind the
plan. Members of the m
rom different sections of the state
pointed out this opposition at the
meeting and for this reason the
committee reafirmed its position.
The sentiment expressed at the
meeting was hat Legion was united
" back of the movement and the
sttitude of both United States sem
,tors fails to meet that of the or
s~anization on this question.
