New Restaurant Opened

Poston & Jordan's 100 per cent
American restaurant was opened
yesterday in the room Immediately
east of the interurban station. These
gentlemen, who have had many years
experience in the business, have
spared no expense in equipping the
place in the most modern manner, and
while making speciality of a forty
cent dinner, are prepared to furnish
anything in season at reasonable
prices, and the announcement that
Joe Kuster has been secured as chef
is sufficient guarantee that every
thing will be cooked and served to the
queens taste.

Gas Company Says Buy Coal

The Newark Natural Gas and Fuel
Co. has issued "a Warning" urging
upon its patrons the advisability of
laying in a sufficient quantity of coal
to heat their dwellings during the
very cold weather this coming winter.
While the gas company, as has al
ways been its policy, will endeavor to
supply the demands made upon it's
service, there is grave doubt of its
ability to supply the necessary volume
of gas required, hence it considers it
wisdom that our citizens should buy
coal, and buy it now.

truth of the statements that the school
is crowded and needs more room. A
meeting will later be held in the
auditorium which will be addressed by

By SheiLa Terru.

A GIRL who allows an honest suitor
~ to lavish gifts upon her when her
= intentions are not serious Is guilty
of robbery just as certainly as II she had
held up the man at the point Of a gun
and taken his money.
That is Why-when l suddenly broke
my engagement to Bennie Rubin, whom
had known for months, and eloped with a
man | had known just two days. paid
Mr. Rubin back every penny he had spent
on me during his courtship.
His suing me for the recovery of his
courtship expenses had nothing whatever
to do with my decision to pay him back.
Mr. Rubin only sued me in a fit Of anger
at being Tilted. He got over his anger
in few days and withdrew his suit. But
my debt of honor remained. And paid.
I could never have looked Bennie Rubin
in the face again If ! hadn't compelled
him to take back that money. II is bad
enough to know that | hurt a friend by
breaking my engagement to him; bit it
would have been much worse to remen-
Der always that had stolen his time and
his cash as well.
The present-day American girl has no
more sense of honor in, her makeup than
pirate or horse thief. She is abso-
lutely lacking in any sense of proportion
or justice in her dealings with men. Her
motto is: "Get all | can out of every
man | can" She sets about this in a
cold-blooded, scheming manner She is
as heartless as she is shallow.
But, on the other hand, do not mean
to imply that every girl should return
the presents Of the losing suitors for her
hand.
When two men have courted girl in
fair rivalry, do not consider that the
girl is in any way obligated to make any
return to the man she rejects. Both
men have taken a gamblers chance. Both
have understood from the beginning that
one must lose. Each has tried, probably,
ness, in the hope Of influencing the girl
in his favor.

not try to recover the ammunition he has

counts In case she has to pay back. 1t
seems to throw a cold shade Of CONNER
cialism on what should be as free and
unselfsh as the gambols of lambs or the
songs of mating birds.
Then, again, how Is an entirely just
total to be summed up? In Mr.. Rubin's
bill, for instance, there Is an item Of IS
for fireworks on the Fourth Of July. Yet
presumably Mr.. Rubin enjoyed seeing the
fireworks. Should not there have been
some deduction for this enjoyment?
A great number Of very involved ques-
tions at once arise, as you see.
But the main question, Of course, Is
whether or not a girl ought to pay the
courtship expenses Of the man she after
ward jilts, or breaks her engagement
with? And here Miss Terry explains In
detail, drawing at the same time some
illuminating distinctions, why she paid
the bill, and why she thinks every other
girl in her position ought to do the same.

kf|VE back the heart I gave you"
" runs the old sentimental song
which is the lament of the girl
who has lost her sweetheart. This is a
rather difficult thing for anyone to do.
But it is possible for a girl who has
been courted by man, who has prom
ised to marry him, and who has then
thrown him over, to give back the pres
ents she has received from him during his
courtship. Whether she ought or ought
not do this has always been a much dis
cussed question.
Not long ago the world of the theatre
was much interested by the brief an
nouncement that Miss Sheila Terry,
charming vaudeville star, had paid back
to Mr.. Benny Rubin, another vaudeville
star, all the expenses of his courtship Of
