used in Railway last Tuesday night
In the opinion of Metuchen fans

In tennis Bill Tilden reigns SUI

The element of luck figures largely

Here was the way he sized it up:
I'm every big championship match

The tossers of Manager Thomas
scored a victory over the Ingots at
South Amboy. when the offerings
of Reed were pounded in the late
innings after the Raritan Copper
works had gained an early lead.
~Applegate did the pitching when
the two teams played a return game
on the Raritan Copper works field
several weeks 6 and the Ingots
won by a one-sided margin.
In former seasons the South AM
boy nine RAJ considered one of the
leading Saturday teams in this sec
ton, but this year Manager Thomas
has had a hard time getting his reg
ular combination together. For to-
days contest, however. he has a
strong collection of tossers and fans

MORTGAGED

You used to hear lot of talk about the evil of
gqing into debt. AS recently as Is years ago, a
man was considered foolish if he signed his fu-
ture earnings over to the money leaders, regard
less of the purpose he had in mind. A mortgage
was such fetish that no Lincoln J. Carter melo-
drama was complete without it.
That idea has been patted in the face by the
grave-digger's spade. Common now, for people
to:borrow money or buy on the instament plan.
Usually, it is foolish system when applied to
uxuries that the buyer cannot afford
But it is an excellent system for acquiring
bonds, homes, furniture and the like By going
into debt, many people become rich who other
wise never would save penny.

INDIAN

Big Bill, Caddo Indian weighing 624 pounds,
walks into q store, at Gracemount, Oklahoma, and
orders his sunanler clothes For the many who
would pay so cents to see Bills huge body in a
sideshow: The trousers will measure eight feet
areund the waist and Bills new shirt takes 10
yards of cloth.
Fortunate for Big Bill, that he lives in modern
times. Ohrancestors would have measured him
for wooden kimono. I'VE, are more tolerant, in
1922 having stolen neaffiy everything the Indians
had that was worth taking
When the stealing takes place in Europe Asia

All the SHINES family had to do
was to keep the property together
and grow up with the country. No
boom district in America ever saw
an increase in wealth, population and
industry similar to that of the Rhen-
lish Westphalian region centered
about the waters of the Rhine and
| the Rul,r. This was esAecially
marked after Germany's victorious
war with France in 1870. This gave
Iher Lorraine, whose precious iron was
added to the boundless coal of the
Ruhr. Cities sprang up like magic.
Unaffected by War
Today even-with Germany defeat
ed, Lorraine back in French '.aaus
world business in the doldrums-
there are, few scenes like those to be
witnessed in the SHINES home coun-
Il try. Take all the towns around Pitts
burg in America and Birmingham in
England, multiply them by tive and
you have the Ruhr.
I It was amid such surroundings that
Hugo SHINES grew up. The coal and
smoke seem to have entered his
blood and colored his hair. That S
why DR.. Herman Binckmeyer, noted
German publicist, called SHINES an
animated lump of coal and Ger
man newspaper called him an Assyr-
ian king. His black hair, his dead
white face, his curved nose make
many think him of Jewish blood. IGut
lie isn't. Back to Luther the SHINES
have been Evangelical Protestants
Started Early
In his carly years SHINES had
career similar to that OF many sons
CT American business men. He went
to a commercial school in Coblenz,
got some practical work in coal
mine and completed his education at
mining academy in Essen. salist

and at %, emulating his grandfather,

that wasn't large sum in the Ruhr
but it sufficed.
innes went forward from success
to success. He did not excite public
ina gination, nor stir it to fear, anger
or admiration. He was just one Of
mary German business men who were
p.l;ng up their coin. He lived plainly
and simply in his native .Mulheim. His
office was and still is just a little
room with desk and few chairs
The same simplicity rules today in
! his offices in Berlin.
The war both gave SHINES his
opportunities and made him we'll
known. SHINES had in his hands
the things a war-making nation needs
the most.
Monarchist circles became aware of
SHINES existence. He was often
called to Berlin for consultation. He
became valued adviser on indus

him most bitterly today in Germany,

STILL SHEARING LAMBS

The. latest jest in Wall Street concerns the
bucket shop operator who bitterly complained to
the lawyer who visited him in Jail that the news
papers are running business"
Despite all press exposes, however, swindlers
are taking.a half-billion dollars per annum Of the
peoples money, according to Congressman f. E.
Denison of Illinois. He is urging passage in the
House of a "blue sky" law to curb these all-too-
numerous "Wallngfords" and "Blackie DAVIS"
The methods of these crooks are surprisingly
simple Whatever form the "graf" takes, it is pre-
dicated on an appeal to cupdity. Promise 'em
everything" is the motto Of the unholy crew. Each
year thousands, probably tens of thousands, pay
for these promises with cold cash. Later on they
add to the purchase price heartburnings, regret,
sorrow and sometimes death.
No mercy should be shown the rascals who stage
these buccaneering expeditions. They are fnan-
cial pirates who should be, metaphoricaly at least
strung up to the judicial yardarm whenever cap
tured.
Nevertheless, it is astonishing that 50 many
should be willing to venture their all in some in
stances, their lifetime savings-on propositions,
the very claims for which should be sufficient to
prove them fraudulent Times

LUSITANIA

H. Ensor, expert at raising sunken ships or
Isalvaging their cargoes by divers says the Lusl-
1tania is so far under water that each square foot
of her is subject to a pressure Of 10 tons. If SO,
the giant steel ship probably is crushed like an
|eggshell.
Big weight to lift Pressure would mash diver
to pulp. $500
These trifing obstacles do not worry ambitious
men who will sail May Is from Philadelphia, to
attempt to salvage millions Of dollars worth OF
cold believed to be in the Lusitania.
Gold is the universal and eternal lure Seeking
it, men admit no impossibilities. Will the salvag-
ers succeed? Maybe, not. But it is only by at
tempting the seemingly impossible that men oc-
casionally attain exceptional success. Confidence
