ONE OF PERTH AMBoY's GREATEST ASSETS.

~ The Y. M. G. A. has come to be such a fixed institution in
Perth Amboy that the average person now takes it as a
matter of course, and is inclined to look upon it as selfperpetuat-
ing like a part of the municipal government. So closely has the
association become woven into our lives that we can hardly imagine
what the city would be like without it.
The fact remains, however, that the Y. NJ. c. A. is dependent
this city. The primary object of the association is to help young
men, and the young men who need such help the most are very
often the young men who can least afford to pay. For that rea-
son the charges for the various privileges, including a room in the
dormitory, are nominal. There is no attempt even to meet ex-
penses, let alone make a profit, because then the object of the in
stitution would be defeated.
The income of the association, therefore, above what small
amount is received from the dormitories, must come from men,
bership dues and annual subscriptions. When it is realized what
an important work the Y. n. c. A is doing in this community for
the young man, and for the industries by not only furnishing a
desirable place for employees to live, but in its Americanization and
welfare work, the Importance of properly supporting the Y. NJ. c..
A. is apparent.
Last night the annual campaign for memberships was started.
Those who have been members during the past year are to be asked
to renew their membership, and as many new members as possible
are to be secured. Whether one uses the Y. M. G. "A. personally or
a it should be supported at least to the extent of a membership
because of what it means to Perth Amboy. To take the Y. NJ. C. A.
out of Perth Amboy today would be to remove the most important
civic center the city has, and at the same time destroy one of the
greatest moral forces in the community.
The YIN c. A. is one institution of which every Perth Am
boyan can be proud. 1t is something that is pointed out to visitors
as one Of the features of the city. 1t il, an asset. that cannot be over
estimated. Every citizen who is interested in Perth Amboy, there
fore, whether he expects to get any personal advantage out of the
y M. c. A. or not, will gladly enroll himself as a member of the
association for the coming year and thereby assure a continuance
of the activities of this organization with undiminished success and
enthusiasm. The present Y. M. G. A. membership campaign ought
to be one Of the most successful in its history.

ANIMAL STUFF

1t isn't true that the ostrich attempts to hide from danger
by burying his head in the sand. Instead, he lies down with
his neck stretched along the ground. In which position. he
looks like one of the large desert ant hills, even close at
hand.
SO the ostrich, after all, is wise and we've been unfair to
him for centuries by testing about his stupidity. A lot of
other inherited ideas that we confidently accept as gospel
truth are really as false as the hokum about the stupid
ostrich.
The truth about the ostrich is from the fascinating book.
"Animal Personalities by Samuel A. Derieux. He finds
the goat is the ~busybody of the animal kingdom, more curious
than any creature except man.
The goats curiosity leads him to poke his head into every
thing. So we get our expressions, butt in and buttinsky.p
Wells overlooked this in his Outline of History
Derieux says he has never been able to figure out why one
dog is courageous and another not. One theory is that each
animal does the thing which is best for it's own protection.
So a weak dog is protected by a natural timidty. A strong
dog doesn't need this protection.
That's also the case with men. You rarely see a really
strong man who is cowardly. Size doesn't matter much. A
small man often is powerfully, a big man fundamentally weak.
When it comes to intelligence, Derieux rates dogs third
He agrees with DR.. Hornaday that the chimpanzee is the most
intelligent animal, with the elephant second. The smartest
bird, he finds, is the row-which travels in bands and nosts
sentinels to warn of danger.

HI PRICE OF COAL.

Regarding anthracite, one beautiful feature of the industry is
the opportunity for innumerable explanations by inter, 'td parties
C excessive coal prices, each of which is probably accurate as far
as it goes. This is recalled by the opinion of Mr.. Lewis that in
seeking an investigation of freight rates on anthracite Governor
Pinchot has touched with unerring precision the method by which
the consumer may be given substantial relief from present ex-
oessive prices
If freight rates are the only answer to the present prices of
coal, Mr.. Lewis must discount the coal commissions finding that
anthracite operators are receiving much larger profits at present
than they customarly did before the war. The average net has
increased from, 36 cents a ton to SLOT, or three times the prewar
margin.
New England, for its part, entertains the idea that Pennsyl-
vania's state tax on mining has something to do with the case. Re-
ceipts from this tax, amounting to l IL per cent of the value of
mined Goa, increase with the cost of mining. New England feels
no credit is due a state for settling a strike if the settlement in
creases that states coal tax receipts. Pennsylvania is placed in
the peculiar position of appearing to be not unwilling to have coal
strikes and added costs if the increase means a greater tax levy.
There are other explanations. The coal commission, for ex-
ample, has always insisted that the major uneconomc condition in
the industry is too many mines and miners. Thus the public, the
commission and the conflicting elements in the industry each have
a diagnosis Of reasons for high prices. Doubtless each is right
there appears to be no end of things the matter with the business
Of mining.
All that remains now is for operators to support Mr.. Lewis S
idea that freight rates are largely to blame. This is not likely to
happen since the mines are controlled by railroads. 1t is unfor-
tunate that operators are enjoined from laying responsibility on
railroads. Thus perfect circle would be formed around which the
buck might be passed with ease and precision a circle Of miners,
operators, railroads and a state government, each responsible in
part for high prices and each with about half of a serviceable
abb.
