Dear mr.. dupon:
want to tell you bout two fellows
this week. One is the fellow that
everybody likes and the other the
village wise guy.
The first un always haz somethin'
nice to say to every one and he al
ways asks about your troubles, but
he never bothers you with hfz own.
He's regular me-and-yOu kind a per-
son and jest seems to fit in most any
where. He probably never haz oc-
casion to even go in the bank. You
know, just plugs along from day to
day, satisfied to make q livin and
supportin' hiz family, nor you never
hear about him leadin parades er pre-
sidin' at meetings, in fact he don't do
nothing of real Importance cept to
mind hiz own business and try to be
friendly with everybody, and after all
that may be the most important
thing he or anybody kin do.
The wise guy-everyone nos him
and eff they don't they IL mighty
lucky cause if they put up. a mon
ument everyday to the higest bore in
town he would have 365 monuments
erected to his dishonor at the end
ov the year. Problems that are way
out of reach ov the professors,
statesmen and the rest of the smart
men are nothing in his life and he
can tell you what should have been
done and what shouldn't. Just
stands about you know with a sap
expression and never admits it when
he il stumped and it don't take much
to stump him at that.
Well i'm goin to ring off fer good
this week. Thanks fer the space.

FIRE
INVESTIGATED
Rum0r that Man Lost Life in
Blaze Mystery
Surrounds Cause

CARTERET, Sept. 20.-A thor
ough investigation is being made by
the police of the fire which RACED
the fourteen room Harrington home
stead early yesterday morning. Chief
of Police Henry J.. Harrington said
this morning that he had assigned
Roundsman John j. Donovan and
Motorcycle Officer Andres to make
an inspection of the ruins, where
rumors have 1t, a mar lost his life.
The rumor Is unfounded, Chief Har-
rington says, as 1t is partly COM
firmed that there was no one In the
house in several days.
The report by neighbors that there
were three people in the house at
the time the fire started, and that
they left for Perth Amboy shortly
afterward, could not be confirmed.
Mystery, however, surrounds the fire.
A neighbor living across the street
from the Harrington homestead, said
that he was awakened by the noise
OF a big automobile which came ont
Of the yard. He did not see who was
in 1t, but saw 1t speed away toward
Perth Amboy. A few minutes later
the house was afire. =
The fire was ~smoldering most of
the day yesterday preventing the po-
lice from doing work. This, how
ever, will be done and a report from
the police officers is expected today.
The blaze which caused more
than $4,000 damage, aroused the
entire community from their sleep.
