NEW TRUNK SEWER PROPOSITION

A project is on foot to build a trunk sewer through the
Railway river valley. One of the latest municipalities to con-
slider connecting with the system is Orange. Mayor William
"A. Lord, of Orange, in his annual message to the council oil
That city, expressed the belief that the solution of the sewer
age disposal problem confronting Orange is to enter the Rah-
way river trunk sewer project rather than go into the Passaic
trunk sewer. West Orange and other municipalities in the
Railway valley are furthering this trunk sewer scheme.
Perth Amboy and Woodbridge are interested in this
new proposition because the mouth of the Railway river is
inst over the border line Middlesex county to the north, the
stream employing into Staten Island sound. Naturally to
have any great amount of sewage dumped into Staten Island
sound right at the door of this city would be decidedly OBJ
jectionable. Staten Island sound is narrow and is not very
deep. AT the point where the Railway river empties into it
the tide is sluggish which would mean that any great amount
of sewage dumped into the sound there would have little
chance of being carried away.
There is a vast difference between this Railway river
proposition and the Passaic valley trunk sewer which emp
lies into New York bay at Robins Reef where there is an
unlimited supply of water and where the tide is strong, the
outlet of the sewer being forty feet below the surface.
1t may be that it is not proposed to empty the Railway
valley trunk sewer into Staten Island sound. In that case
Middlesex county municipalities cease to be interested. But
as it does not seem feasible to carry such a trunk sewer
across Staten Island to the bay, even if New York
would permit such a thing, and it is hardly possible to
construct a disposal plant inland large enough to care for
such a vast amount of refuse as would come through a trunk
sewer, it is logical to suppose that it is planned to have the
sewer follow the river to its mouth and empty into the sound.
II there is any such movement on foot steps should be taken
to counteract it Immediately. The waters of Staten Island
sound are already made foul enough by the discharge from
Tie various industries that border it without having any trunk
sewer dumping the sewage from many towns and cities
into ii.

My mother made a rag carpet.
The rags were saved for several
years, and Included scraps from all
the garments of all the children.
They were washed, sorted, cut in
proper width and given to us chill

There were three kinds, black,
whits and hit-or-miss. So far as
[ recall, the hit-or-miss never hit or
was expected to do so. 1t was made
of scraps of calico garments. What

1 remember that the girls never
had much faith in the sewing done
by the boys. They accused us of
rolling our balls loosely to make
them seem larger.
While we sewed, mother read
aloud to us. She read "Uncle Toms
Cabin" and the novels of Walter
Scott and other literature of the
period.
Then came a day for dyeing rags.
A neighbor woman who had skill in
that work came to help mother.
There was red and there was blue
and there was green. Then they
took some of the blue and dipped in
the green, and 1t came out yellow.

a SERVICE WELL RENDERED

NTH the settlement of the last claim growing out of the
grade crossing horror in this city last June when the appara-
tus of the Eagle Hose and Chemical Company collided with
an express train at Market street while responding to an
alarm of fire, it is fitting that recognition should once more

unanimously gave their services without charge in looking
after the interests of the widows, children and other de-
rendents of the firemen who We're killed or injured. Thanks
to the Perth Amboy Bar Association, of which Judge C. G.
Hommann is president, these families were spared the ordeal
and expense of hiring lawyers to present their just claims to
the railroad company because of the loss they had sustained.
Immediately after the accident the city was filled with
the ambulance chaser, shyster type of lawyer all anxious to
profit at the expense of the victims of the terrible affair.
These men came from all over, calling on the widows even
before the dead men had been buried, in their greed to get
in on what looked to them to be a good thing.
But these men who are a disgrace to their profession,
reckoned without considering the lawyers of Perth Amboy.
The bar association lost no time in taking the matter up and
as a sense of civic duty as we'll as a desire on their part to be
of service to the stricken families, took full charge of the
legal aspect of the case. Those having just claims could
place full confidence in the men they knew, realizing that
they would be ably represented and that Justice would be
Ilone, all without expense. Thus instead of paying a large
rart of such amounts as could be collected from the railroad
company to attorneys for services rendered, all the money
went to the families.
That the work has been done well is evident from the
TACT that with the last claim finally paid it is estimated that
Inc Central Railroad of New Jersey has paid out over $780,

And right here credit must be given the railroad officials

The mouth has a greater task
than we realize. Through it passes
everything that is necessary to sus-
tain life and build up the body.
In the mouth the food is chewed
and mixed with saliva-the first step
of digestion.
We must realize that in this pro-
cess of chewing or m~astication, all
the foods are directly affected by the
condition of the mouth. If the gums
are foul and full of pus, if there are
cavities in the teeth in which bits of
decopposed food remain, the food
in is passage through the mouth
becomes contaminated and mixed
with pus from round the teeth and
the bacteria from the cavities in
the teeth.
Thus the food containing bacteria
and pus is carried to the stomach.
1t is impossible to have a good di-
gestion under such conditions. :
The only way to keep from con-
stantly swallowing diseased material
is to keep the mouth clean. Having
the teeth repaired will not only do
this but will relieve one from the
pain of inflamed gums and broken
down teeth. Obscure general symp-

Daily Letter by Frederic j. Haskin

though Penn believed in organized
government, laws, reformatories, and
night watchmen-armed only with
constables' sticks.
In what is known as PENIS prop
hecy, he wrote: There may be
room there Gin America) for such an
holy experiment that an example
may be set up to the nations: and
that it may be the seed of a nation,
for the nations need a precedent"
The King of England wanted to
be rid of Penn so that he would no
longer spread his troublesome prop
uganda of peace and liberty in Eng
land. So when Penn proposed that
the king pay a debt owed to Adj
miral Penn in American land, the
king agreed.
Before Penn left England, he had
an amusing conversation with King
Charles. The king asked Penn cur
iously how he was going to obtain
the good will of the Indians.
81 will buy their lands" said
Penn.
Buy their lands of them!" cried
the king. why, man, you have
bought them of me already"
"Yes, L know 1 have, and at a
dear rate, too; but 1 did it only to
get thy good will, not that 1 thought
thou hadst any right to the land"
The interesting fact about Penn's
experiment is that for nearly a CEN
fury it actually worked. The Quak-
ers established themselves in the
land in the belief that the Indians
were by nature trusting and friend
ly, and according to the histories
they were justified.
The Indians were used to promises
of justice from the white men, but
they were not used to the promises
being kept. Penn became known
among the Indians as the one white
chief who kept faith with the red
men. 1t is recorded that the In
dian tribes became to friendly with
PENIS settlers that children who
were lost in the woods around Phil
adelphia were commonly directed to
their homes by the Indians.
The old story of the latchstring.
told in many Quaker chronicles, is
illustrated in one of Miss Oakley's
mural paintings. the latchstring
was left outside at night by Friends
as a sign of welcome to anyone who

WASHINGTON, D.. c., Jan. g.
That for the best part of a century
Quaker settlers in pennsylvania
conducted an unarmed government
and left their doors unbolted at
night because it wasSsafer," is re-
called by Violet Oakley, a famous
painter of murals, who has o nine
teen years been engaged in decora-
ting the walls of the Pennsylvania
state capital, at Harrisburg, ana IN
the course of her work has delved
into the history of the state.
The notes of Pennsylvania history
from which she has gained 1nsplra-
ton for her paintings she has placed
in a portfolio, beautifully hand
printed and Illuminated. Color re-
productions of her paintings on the
capitol walls accompany the notes.
This valuable portfolio Miss Oakley
loaned by request to the Library Oh
Congress where it has been display
ed, Now she has taken it back to
her studio at Philadelphia. 1t is OF
especial interest at this time be-
cause Of the holy experiment" in
disarmament which William Penn
made in Pennsylvania.
1t has been suggested that copies
of the portfolio be presented to the
delegates at the conference, and TINS
may be done. 1t is pointed out by
advocates of disarmament that the
pictures and story might serve a

America did at one time offer an
honest example, not of limited arm
aments, but of disarmaments.
Miss Oakley regards the holy eX-
pertinent" as a message to the world
from Pennsylvania, and a
contribution to the disarmament
question. Quaker Pennsylvania, she
says, is the keystone to the ldea or
disarmament.
Her paintings at the Harrisburg
capitol tell wildly the old story or
William Penn and Pennsylvania.

Corsica is one OF the Mediterra-
mean reasons advanced by France in
her claim that her navy was neces-
Sary to defend her possessions In
three seas. The following bulletin
concerning Corsica, from the WASH
ington, d. c., headquarters of the
National Geographic Society, is Jas
ed on notes by Clifton r. Adams,
recently returned from this island
Department of France:
Few people know Corsica as
more than a little island, the birth
place of the Emperor Napoleon and
the home Of an almost savage race.
But today, because it is so little
known, it IL one of the most delights
full n Of the earth.
A Medley of Races
Its history is astonishing. So
many races have fought for it in
the obscure centuries that the pres
ent day Corsican is a mixture exhib-
iting many of the racial traits of the
Adventures from Tyre and Phoeni-
cha, Goth, Vandal. Moor and Sar-
aeon as well as the Rcman, Genoese
and Pisan Of the later centuries.
THE love of liberty is still strong

tain towns the older men say that
they nevct' ceased fighting for inde-
pendence unit, after August Is, 1853,
when the island was formally declar-
ed a French possession. By a strange
prank of fate Napoleon Bonaparte
was born n hat dayin the beautiful
little port of Ajaccio, with Its Or
ange and almond groves, it's mimosa
trees and its graceful palms.
The Hero of Corsica
During the, struggles of later
years Pasquale Pacli appeared as
the leader Of tn, Corsicans against
the oppression of Genoa and while
he IN turn was forced to submit to
the rule of France he is considered
the real hero of Corsica and his pic
tura can be seen in many a noun
tain home to this day. His tomb is
the shrine Of Corsica Tales still are
told OF hi simplicity and scorn OF
luxury. After he was made a gem
eral, so runs one OF these stories, his
brother thought it more betting his
dignity that glass windows should
be put in his home. Pasquale broke
every pane declaring, I do not mean
to live like a duke in my fathers
house, but like a Corsican BORN
Because the Vendetta was or
ganized in these stirring times asa
protective the world of the
present believes the Corsican to be
a savage people, vindictive and
vengeful, and that bandits and rob-
bers abound in the mountain fast

kindly and honest and hospitable to
travellers. 1t is d matter OF native
pride that no beggars are to be

PENIS Arbitration System.

PENIS Arbitration System.
Penn settled disputes between
white settlers and Indians by a jury
of six settlers and six Indians, which
proved satisfactory to all concerned.
All through the years, when n
Quaker government was in effect,
there is record of only three Friends
being injured in the conflicts between
the white men and the Indians. 1t
is recorded that these three, a wo-
man and two men, lost their faith
and sought the protection of forts
and arms.
The Quaker colonists proved
equal to the high standard of peace
seeking set by Penn. But outsiders
who came into the settlement
brought weapons and trickery. They
had trouble with the Indians. Penn
did not attempt to limit his peace
full community to Quakers and the
number of outsiders grew. When
there were more of the outsiders
than Quakers, and the ideals of the
Friends were no longer a dominant
force in the community, the control
was turned over to the majority ele-
ment. Swords and guns came into

was over.
To most of us who remember
William Penn vaguely as a dignified
old man who made friends with the
Indians it is interesting to recall that
he was one Of the most daring and
%far-seeing pioneers of our history
To Benjamin Franklin is generally
accorded the honor of being the
first to suggest a union of the Amer
lean colonies. But PENIS writings
set forth this proposal-then a radi-
cal one.
Penn is also said to be the first
to suggest a parliament of nations.
Back in 1893, he described an orr
ga~nization which was to be some-
thing like the Hague tribunal or a
modern international conference at
which men of different nations were
to gather to discuss their differences
and plan for their mutual advan-
tage.
1t took almost another century for
the colonies to come to the idea of
union. Two centuries elapsed be-
fore international conferences be-
came popular. 1t may be longer
before PENIS ideal Of peace is
achieved. That it will be achieved
is steadfastly held by those who
have faith in Penn a IS a sage and
prophet.
