gIInGETING "a HOURS,

Suppose the six-hour day sought by the coal
miners obtained and suppose that precedent
followed generally by and-workers and brain
workers both. Very likely it will be day, as
though that day yet distant. What then? How
would the day be divided?
q Time in itself is nothing. All depends the
way it is spent
The division of the day usually regarded ideal,
and traditional dating back to King Alfred, is eight
hours work, eight sleep and eight for
ton That has been rather crude though it suffered
for general purposes. When get down to the six
hour working day. it may be well to partition the
"a hours specifically How would this arrange
ment do?
Six hours for useful work.
Nine hours for sleep;
Three hours for outdoor recreaton;
Three hours intellectual pursuits;
Two hours for meals;
One hour for transportation.
The sleep allowance includes the necessary time
for dressing and undressing. If there any margin
left over the traditional eight hours much the
better; for modern men and women, living more in
doors and at higher tension need sleep
than their ancestors did.
A transportation allowance is obviously necessary
because workers nowadays live distance
from their work.
Meals should be leisurely, and two hours is little
enough for them.
The outdoor allowance needs no defense with the
present generation.
The time allowed for intellectual pursuits" might
be given to serious study reading for pleasure, at

After several years OF the most diff
fcult highway construction ever en-
countered in the Eastern states the
new road around the face of Storm
kjnc Mountain, between West Point
and Newburgh, has eventually been
opened to motor traffic. A majority
OF motorists in the mettopolitan dis
srict are aware that engineers have
been engaged for many months past 10
the work Of carving out OF the solid
rock 4 highway that will bridge the
only missing link in the chain of inn
proved roads paralioling the Hudson
River on its western bank all the way
from Jersey City to Albany.
In fact, so many inquiries have been
received at the touring bureau of the
American Automobile Association al
sol Fifth Avenue relative TO the prog
rcss being made that its manager, Leon
A. Dickinson. has thought it wise to
issue an official notification that this
road is now open, and also to suggest
the hest available routes for reaching
it from New York City
Inasmuch as the road along the west
bank just south of West Point is still
closed, it seems advisable for the pres
ent to recommend the alternative route
via the West l25th Street ferry and
the Fort Lee road to Hackensack. This
latter highway has recently been paved
with concrete through the townships
OF Teaneck and Bogota and is now in
excellent condition throughout.
Route From Hackcnsack
Upon reaching Hackensaek the north
bound tourist will turn right at the
courthouse into Main Street and fol-
low this thoroughfare for about mile
to Passaic Street. Here lett turn on
excellent ameisite leads direct to A.
cola and the interesting old water
wheel that is one Of the best-known
landmarks in northern New Jersey.
Keeping TO the right at this point the
motorist will continue almost due
north along the well-known Paramus
Road to Hohokus. where left turn
leads via Waldwick, Allcndale and
Mahwah to Suffern, connecting here
with the east-andwest highway from
the Tarrytown-N -Nyack ferry.
Beyond Suffern the road follows the
! exceedingly picturesque valley of the
Ramapo River, banked on both sides
by the steeply wooded slopes of the
Ramapo Mountains, through Sloats-
burg, Tuxedo and Southtield to Harri-
man. S!oatsburg is small village
with an unusually fine roadhouse, while
| Tuxedo is internationally famous for
its ultra exclusive park containing the
residences of many noted families.
The village of Hartman, about forty
two miles from New York, marks the
junction of two very important high
ways, one running north to Newburgh
and the other in a general northwest
erly direction through Goshen, and
thence either toward Sullivan County
and Binghamton, or else via Port Jervis
and Delaware Water Gap, as the tour
lists fancy dictates. In this instance,
however, those bound for West Point
will keep to the right as far as the
village of Central Valley, when a

Law to Trap Speed
Irappers Asked to
Protect AutOists

cone Of the most aggravating nui-
sances faced by the automobile tourist
to-day is the so-called speed trap
which is found in 80 many rural com
munties and small cities" declares Dai
II Lewis, acting executive chairman Of

'1f there is one question of interest to
motorists that deserves the immediate

that every motorist brought before
them is guilty.
"If these speed traps really accom-

compIish, the breaking up of dangerous
speeding. they would be ali right" MIR.
Lewis continued, but the principal VIC
tins of this iniqutous system are the
law-abiding. careful-driving motorists,
who may exceed the limit uncon8cious-

are simply held up, regardless, and
charged with speeding, whether they
are in excess of the speed limit or not

deliberately drive miles out of their

the communities harboring the speed

small amount of fines collected by the
justice of the peace or other official
in charge of these hearings.
