TWO TICKETS
At METUCHEN
Opposition Shows Up in the
School Board Election to be
Held Tuesday

METUCHEN, Feb. 10:-At the
annual election for members of the
Board of Education to be held at
the Franklin school next Tuesday
night an opposition ticket will be in
the running to oppose the reelec-
ton OF the three board members
who are seeking reelection.
The meeting promises to be an
extremely interesting session and
both factions are now diligently ut
work rounding up their votes in an
effort to put their ticket across.
In view of the fact that those
serving on the board do it merely
through a sense of public spirit IL
would seem as If the interest might
lag, but from the present indications
that will be far from the true state
of affairs.
Those seeking reelection for an
other ~three-year term are doing 1t
more at the request of their fellow
members. who are DESTROYS of a
continuation of the harmony now
existing than for any other reason,
according to the board members.
Charles Mundy, whose term ex-
pires, will receive the support of the
voters of both factions according to
the prevailing gossip, while Ben1a-
min Wittnebert and George II. Kelly
who are also seeking reelection will
be opposed by Wesley Price and G.
5ortore.
The annual budget will also be
submitted for the consideration of
the voters at that time, the polls
being open from s until 10 O'Clock.

efforts of the department to secure
better welfare work in the commu-
nifty. The growing population makes
it necessary to keep developing
along these lines and the work OF
the department is constantly in
creasing.

cessful of the year as far as the

the lecturer did not arrive and h

Saw Volcano ln Action.

A volcano in action was witnessed
about six weeks ago by the captain Of
the British freighter Bounty, off the
West African coast. The skipper said
the Bounty was about five miles of
shore when he observed smoke pour
ing high and p%rofusely out of a peak
inward from the Blight of Biafra, near
the boundary line between Kamerun
and Nigeria. Thinking he might be
of assistance in the event of disaster
to the villages lei the seacoast he
put In toward shore and went to the
land in a lifeboat. He said the smok-
ing peak was about 1000 feet above
sea level and on Its westward side
he observed large streams of lava.
Finding no signs of human life along
the shore he went back to the freight
er and proceeded on his course.

pu, ou, Fires WIEN elias, Balls.

A glass ball, the glass being thin and
easily shattered, and about the size of
an egg, filed with a standard flame
killing liquid, Is now being put on the
market.
Most fires can be extingulshed with
little danger and little loss IL proper
means are available for prompt use.
Experiments have shown that a few
of these new glass balls or fi%re-outs,
as they are called, will quickly snuff
out a bad blaze.
In the past most fire extinguishers
have been rather hlgh-priced. This
new extinguisher is a notable excep-
fion-the three balls which comprise
a set being retailed for only 80 cents
per set. A set of three balls comes In
an ingenious carton which can be
hung from the wall.

ONE JOURNAL IN GREENLAND
And the Editor Of That One Had to
Teach His Subscribers How to
Read II

Journalism in Greenland is in rather
q primitive stage, according to the
captain of a British bark. The cap
tain makes frequent voyages to Green
land and is held to be an authority on
conditions In that country.
The one editor in Greenland is a
Dane named Moeller, who conducts
the only newspaper and enjoys the
singular distinction of printing the pa
per for the natives and teaching them
10 read 1t.
Mr.. Moeller is not only the editor
and proprietor; he is the reporter,
printer, distributor and business
manager, and every two weeks he
makes a long journey on skates to dis
pose of his Journal. $
Originally 1t contained only a few
crude Illustrations. but gradually
other matter was introduced, until now
Il contains articles on the affairs Of
the day.
This man actually taught his SUBJ
scribers to read his paper, first intro
ducing words. then sentences, until
now his subscribers are able to read
articles on any topic he cares to write
about.

the barber shop to have her hair
trimmed, and the electric clippers al
most drove the little girl into spasms
of fear despite the kind assurances
that they would not hurt her. She
had a big audielce before the task
was completed.
Next day Dorothy went to visit a
