TRANSPORTATION MUST BE GIVEN

Another trolley car company is in serious financial dlnlcul-
ties, receivers having been named for the Morris County Traction
Company. Like The Jersey Central Company, which line will be
abandoned next Saturday, the Morris county line is finding it
hard to continue operations. Handicapped by bus competition,
the traction lines, except in the few large cities in the state, can
not get enough business in the smaller communities to keep the
cars running. A traction line is an expensive enterprise, it has
been shown.
solution at the present time, it seems, is by means of bus lines. In
order that the people living along the line that is to be abandoned
can get transportation service, the various municipalities effected
should at once issue permits for the operation of bus lines. The an
nouncement that the Board of Aldermen will hold a special meet
ing to meet with this emergency is the only thing to do. Temper
airy relief can be brought about in this way. Final adjustments
in the bus service can be made later.
AS the new routes to Morgan, Keyport, Matawan, and Red
Bank will be over state roads, it would, perhaps, be well for the
municipalities effected to confer with the State Highway Commits
sion. The S1zer board has shown good judgment in other prob
GEMS, and a spirit of cooperation, as well. Perhaps the commits
ioners could suggest some way out of the serious transportation
crisis confronting this section of the state. The operation of buses
on Saturdays and Sundays during the great traffic congestion
seems to be the most serious problem and in this, the highway
board, perhaps, would lend valuable assistance.
At any rate, transportation must be furnished the many who
wish to come to Perth Amboy from that section between South
Amboy, Keyport and Red Bank. Immediate action must be taken
SO that bus lines can be in operation as soon as the last car swings
into the car barn next Saturday.

YOUR HABITS

How many of your actions are Thought out in advance7
How many are mechanical, without thought-the result of
habit?
Did it ever occur to you, why you always sit at the same
place during meals instead of moving to a chair at another
side of the tablet Habit.
Do you realize that you are in the habit o. travelling cer-
tain established routes through the streets to get to your bank,
grocery store, place of business and so on, although there
might be a shortcut route if you paused to figure it out9
The older we get, the more we become creatures of habit,
like mechanical dolls.
Unconsciously we attempt, day after day, to get the same
seat in the street car. We don't always get it, but on the aver
age there's one certain seat where we re most apt to befound.
Men, putting on your trousers in the morning, which leg
goes frst-right or left? Why not the other9 How about
shoesg
Here's an interesting experiment you can perform. Take
q door that is used often. Reverse this door so that the hinges
will be where the knob formerly was. Then watch. You'll
find people coming up and, though looking straight at the
familiar door, they'll reach for the side where the knob
used to be.
Habit, again! Each of us has his own particular way Of
opening mail. One person tears off a corner Of the envelope
and inserts a finger. Another tears off the whole end. Still
another Sits the flaps with a pencil, or hunts the scissors. All
done mechanically, including the habit of holding envelopes
to the light before opening. This comes from a subconscous
hope that there's money inside.
There's no way of figuring it out exactly, but at least half
of our actions must be mechanically performed, without
thinking, the result Of habit. Life is largely routine, and
routine develops habit.
Are you a slave to habit? It is the worst form of slavery.
for by it a man ensaves himself, especially his thought and
potential powers of originality. And the habit of automaton-
ism-unthinking, involuntary action-can be as injurious to
our careers as the vicious habits such as drugs and liquor.
Getting in a rut'' is usually due to becoming the victim
of habit. Here's where system and efficiency shortcircuit
themselves. For habit destroys initiative.

AMBoY A LIVE WIRE TOWN

The old home town is full of good sports. Like all red-blood-
ed Americans the people here love a good fight, a worlds series
contest or a spirited election. Hundreds of them gather in front
Of the Evening News office when important sporting events are
staged to get the last minute returns and to discuss, between
rounds, all the latest happenings in the world of sport.
It's a great fraternity, this crowd in front of the News office
when fight returns are given. Goodnatured, but loyal to their
favorite in the contest, they cheer every announcement. Then
during the intermissions a general conversation is carried on con-
corning the latest phase of the battle just heard through the meg
aphone which is continued until the next returns come in.
And when the flash comes over The Associated Press wire
direct from the ring side to the News office that Dempsey has
won't or "Frpo knocks out Willard in the eighth or that "Leon-
ard outclasses Tender" what a cheer arises from the corner of
Jefferson street and Madison avenue. Then the men, and, let 1t
be whispered, the women, who are also good sports, return home,
with all the dope on the contest and a picture in their minds of
the exhibition and all the attendant features.
It's great hot weather stuff in a live wire town. Come around
again, all you sport lovers. The best is none too good for you.

JAIL DRUNKEN DRIVERS

Drunken automobile drivers had better keep out of Middlesex
county. The roads in this county are too narrow for drivers
whose facilities are deadened by bad booze. To drive carefully
and sanely in this section of the state, a man must have a clear
brain and a steady hand, and bootleg rum is not conducive to that
end.
In the past few days several drunken drivers have been sent
to the county workhouse, fined and their drivers licenses revoked.
The sentences were light enough. In these days of traffic conges-
ton l~aw-abidng citizens have enough trouble operating their cars
through the maze of motor vehicles without the danger of being
rammed by the machine of an intoxicated driver.
Commissioner Of Motor Vehicles Dill is carrying on a state
wide campaign against the drunken driver. Local authorities, in
this section Of the state, at least, are cooperating with him Mr..
Dill is also being helped greatly by the state police. The officers
stationed at Morgan have made an excellent record in that direc-
ton. Such cooperation will make the roads safe for sane drivers

@. When were cigarettes first
manufactured in this country?-l. M:
G.
A. The manufacture Of this pro-
duct began about 1854, in which
year 19,770,000 were made in the
United States. Apparently they did
not take" we'll for in 1869 the num-
Der of cigarettes manufactured was
only 1~,750,000, but since that time
the annual output has rapidly in
creased, until in 1921 the total num-
Der of cigarettes made was 63.2l4,-
600, 900.
@, Did DIR. Mary Walker wear a
special kind of clothes or were they
the regulation male attire?-M. Il.
C.
A. A picture taken of DIR. Walker
shortly after the Civil War shows her
in garments that might be termed
nondescript. While she was dressed
in trousers, a garment rather femin-
inc in cut came TO her knees. In lat
er years her clothes were cut on
-mannish lines; black trousers, Prince
Albert coat, white shirt and collar,
high silk hat. gave her the appear
ance of a dapper, smartly dressed
man.
Q. What is the greatest distance
that a baseball has been thrown?-
p. ]. f.
A. At a field meet held October
8. 1910, Sheldon Lajeune threw a
ball a distance of 426 feet "a inches,
establishing a new record. This
was &c feet 2H inches better than
the record toss of John Hatfield's
which had stood since October 10,
1872.
@. Was there a time when a part
of New York City was given over to
squatter sovereignty?-J. r.
A. The Librarian of the New
York City Library quotes us the fol-
lowing: "All the region north of
And street was a rocky neighbour
hood, tenanted by 'Squatters,' who
put up a great battle when the work
of building the Grand Central began.
These squatters had a %precarious ex-
istence and depended on goats for q
considerable part of their living.
They were a unique feature in upper
New York for many years. 1t was a
wild country north Of 42nd street in
the CO.'S and these roolseries covered
all of what is now Central Park and
along Fifth Avenue east, as well as
42nd street"
@. Were any members Of the A.
e. F. killed before Enright, Gresham
and Hay were?-J. A. B.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1923-07-25

A. The War Department says that
they were the first killed in action.
Two months earlier, four members
Of the Medical Corps were killed by
a bomb which was thrown on a hos
pital. These men were non-com-
batants and were killed in the line of
duty but not in action.
Q. Is there land at the North
Pole?-W. L. w. :
A. This northern extremity OF tia
earth is in the midst of a hollow
which holds no land in the neigh
borhood of t3e Pole itself. The most
northerly lands possess animal life
-musk-ox, reindeer, Polar bear.
wolf, fox, ermine, land birds, as well
as insect life, and during a few short
weeks in summer, brilliant flowers.
Human life is found within some 700
miles OF the North Pole.
@. Is it true that a spring of ex-
cellent drinking water made its APP
pearance at Andersonville Prison
during the Civil War?-G. S. B.
A. The appearance of the spring
at Andersonville Prison is generally
accepted as a fact. Its appearance
is described by various e-yewitnesses.'
who were inmates at the prison at
that time. :
@. Why does glass exposed to the
sur often turn violet in color ?-H.
c.
A. Tho violet color acquired by
some glass after expousre to light is
generally attributed to a change in
the state OF oxidation Of the man
ganese in the glass, which is pro-
duced by ultraviolet or actinic light.
This effect is not characteristic Of
any locality, but may be found any-
where. 1t is especially noticeable in
glass bulbs of arc lights.

THE REFEREE
Rets
BY Albert Apple)

Bets
The first bets on the coming pres-
idential election are offered in Wall
street. An unknown gentleman who
apparently is connected with the
Safety First movement will bet you
$4,000 against $4,000 that Governor
Smith will be the text rent free ten
Another offer is $1,000 against
$4,000 that Ford will be elected f
nominated, either by Republicans or
Democrats. Easy money.
Ford
Henry FORD visited the historic
Massachusetts tavern, built In 1856,
that inspired Longfellow's Tales of
a Wayside Inn" The guide gave
his ballyhoo about the ancient
hinges reputed to ward off evil
spirits.
Henry listened patiently. Then.
while the rest of the crowd moved
on, he remained behind to examine
closely and learn whether a new set
of hinges would work better. TINS
trait is what gives Henry a chance
at the presidency.
