Acclaimed a heroine and questioned to the impulse which prompted her to endanger her life in effort to the lives of others, Mary just hangs her head and says she didn't do anything wonderful
 There was nothing else to do' she explains. "Everybody standing round crying some ed in"
 The heroic action of Mary Bordoni naturally gives rise 10 the question, what is it makes a person. ap- parently not cast in heroic mold rush willingly in al critical moment and risk his her own life in an effort to save the life of another?

If 1t Fits

If a word to the wise is sufficient, it looks as if wives considered their husbands a long ways from wise.
 Most any wife is willing to help her husband--spend his money.
 The reason man gets So little sympathy at home is because his wife thinks his job at the office is mere child's play compared to the housewCrk she has to do.
 The secret sorrow of every wIfe's life is that she did have sense enough to wait a. little longer to see if she couldn't have done better.
 A woman doesn't care to appear holier than others, all she wants is to look better dressed.
 What good is it, we'd like to know for girls to wear these new silk stockings that give the appearance of no stockings at all, if they cover 'em up with the long skirts?
 If we had our way, the one place we never would go is broke.
 Some husbands, are so used to hay ing their wives think for them that if they'd lose their wives they'd sim .pty lose their minds.
 The ancients used to go to the old men Tor c0unSeI, put IL SOlneIllueS seems about all the advice the old men of today could give would be on how to make grand big fool of yourself.
 Before the honeymoon has reached its last quarter the groom discovers it is mighty hard for a husband to get his wifes mind to go along with his.
 A womans idea of concealing her jealousy over her friend marrying a richer man than she got is to em- phatically declare: q wouldn't live with that old fool if he had 10 times as much money as he has"
 A man never is as important as he thinks he is nor quite as unimport- ant as the boss tells him he is when he asks for raise.

SILzER SIGNS TWO MORE
BILLS, vET0ES THREE

TRENTON, March 27:-Disposing
of the last five bills left by the legis-
lature, Governor Silzer signed two
and filed vetoes of three others in
the State Library. One of the meas
ures approved he personally advocat-
ed in order to cut down the cost Of
road building. 1t is by Assemblyman
Gaede, of Hudson county, and per-
mits the state to erect it's own ce-
ment plant for the manufacture of
material used in the building Of con-
crete highways.
The governor during the legisla-
tive session pointed out that the cost
of cement had jumped away out of
proportion to its price in 1914 and
advocated that New Jersey provide
her own material for road purposes.
The bill is regarded as blow at the
so-called cement trust"
Another bill approved was intro
duced by AssembIyman Gift of
Union county. and authorizes insur-
ance companies to make investmen Mt
in Canadian bonds.
Probably the most interesting of
the bills vetoed was that introduced
by NJ. Powell of Burlington, which
would have permitted Burlington
county to give Ellis Parker it's ia
nous detective a salary of $3,500
year. No reasons were given for
the disapproval of the measure.
Parker has said he would quit un-
less given more money.
