GARIBALDI FEATHERWEIGHT
CHAMPION 1T IS CLAIMED

The New York Worlds thrice a
week edition is seldom without some
sort OF human interest" feature
story. For instance n recent issue
of this great paper tells the follow
Ing newsy little story of Lorenzo and
his featherweight fighting friend,
and companion, Garibaldi:
Garibaldi is the irreverent rank
outsider from Hell's Kitchen that
pulled the terrible bone at the Poul-
try Show last week. Nicholas Lor-
EMO was never so ashamed in his
life. Nicholas owns Garibaldi. or
vice versa. They live at No. 446
West 46th Street, where Nicholas has
a restaurant.
Garibaldi just walked in one day
from nowhere. Maybe he came from
one of those freight car crates. He
Is not n to be cooped in a freight
car for long. He walked and chased
Nicholas dog. Nicholas first cat,
Nicholas second cat and Nicholas
third cat out the door, and then gave
Nicholas a friendly peck. as II to
say; ITS all right, kid. me and you
is friends"
So for no reason whatsoever ex-
cept that he has n red coat, Nicholas
named him Garibaldi. He might lust
as well have named him Santa Claus
or Gen. Burgoyne.
Garibaldi is the most arrogant.
bossy. conceited, bullying. naughty
bantam rooster imaginable. He Is
also clever. The other day two of
Nicholas cats got to fighting over
Miranda, the third cat. GaribaIdi
flew down from the cupboard and
stopped the bout in the first round.
And h other night he did the most
comical thing: Mr.. Lorenzo's father
fell asleep In his rocking chair near
the stove. What does Garibaldi do

Following is an interesting extract
from the Wyoming Potato report for
January LIST. 1923, as made public
by the Wyoming Office of the United
States Bureau of Agriculture:
The January potato report for
Wyoming issued by the wyoming
Office of the U. S. Bureau of Agri-
cultural Economics states rs per
cent of the 1922 potato crop was still
held on January 1 and 46 per cent
of the crop was still available for
market.
Reports from over the state indi-
cate that 7S per cent or 1,S33,000
bushels Of the 1922 crop Of $780,
900 bushels was still held by grow
ers and dealers on the first of the
year. 1t is estimated 46 per cent Of
the 1922 crop was still available for
market, that IL per cent Of the crop
still held by growers that was unfit
for food and seed and that 20 per
cent of the crop was held by growers
for food and seed.
The Wyoming 1922 crop was es-
timated at 2,350,O0O bushels COM
, 1923-02-15

pared to 2,052,00O bushels in 1921
and 1,S75,000 in 1900.
The carlot shipment of potatoes
from Wyoming points to December
80, 1922 was SIS cars compared to
6S2 airs to December 81, 1921. The
total shipments for the 1921 crop
amounted to 954 cars, while SIT.
cars were shipped from the 1920
crop.
Owing to the large crop and limit
ed demand, with very low prices
many growers still retain the bulk of
their crop. The quality Of the 1922
crop was good and the state not
only greatly increased its total crop,
but there was a greatly increased
crop of high class certified seed
stock.

school buildings cost mor than esti-
mates Indicate. Woodbury. has $3.50,
900 to spend for its new building, and
the lowest bid was about $4,000 IN
excess of that sum, and in excess of
tbe bonding limit for Woodbury..

PENIS GROVE DELEGATION
TO MOOSEHEART RETURNS
Sent By The Penns Grove Lodge of
Moose and Ladies' Legion

The delegation sent to Mooseheart-
the home for children conducted by
the Loyal Order of Moose, at Moose
ing, June 30th.
While all had a very pleasant time
and were highly entertained they can
not but praise the wonderful worl
being done for the children at Moose
heart.
The Convention goes down into the
history of the Order as the best
largest and the most successful one
ever held.
The assets of the Order are S21,-
642, 674.12 against $19,630,06S.71 last
year.
Officers elected for the year are:
Supreme Dictator, Frank J. Monahan
San Francisco; Supreme Vice Dicta-
tor, Willard A. Marakle, Rochester,
N. Y; Supreme Prelate, j. Albert
Cassidy, Baltimore, Md; Supreme
Secretary, Rodney H. Brandon, Moose
heart, Ill; Supreme Treasurer, Harry
w. Mace, Philadelphia, Pa.
The delight of the entire delegation
was to wander from building to build
ing and see the various activities of
the children from cradle up to when
they reach young manhood and wom-
anhood, to see the little tots in the
Penn Baby, where all the building and
furnishings are built in proportion to
their age. In the industrial hall, little
boys from ten up are taught various
trades; girls from ten years of age
are taught to make their w dresses.
To describe Mooseheart would take
volumes by various men of learning,
who have already written on it. One
may say it is the City of Child
hood, city of wonders, while in
truth it is a dream of a man who put
his dream into reality-the one who
adopted the slogan, every child is en-
titled to a high school education and
a trade" is no other than our present
Secretary of Labor and Director Gen
eral of the Order, James ]. Davis,
who is responsible for Mooseheart.
He is the dreamer who, in spite of all
obstacles, worked until Mooseheart
became a reality a wonder of this
generation. In it is established a new
system of teaching that is being
by various educational institu-
tons.
Having provided for the children,
the Order next turned to the care of
the aged, for whom a home was estab-
lished a year ago at Moosehaven,
Fla, a few miles from Jacksonville.
This, like Mooseheart, is a dream and

The state regulatory body would not
permit it to charge rates sufficient to
keep up its property; that the master
did not give the consideration to the
Ford, Bacon & Davis valuation report
hat the state law demanded should be
given it.
Then, when the company came to
some of the smaller items, it again
vas up against parallel objections by
the state. The master allowed eight
per cent for interest during the CON
struction of the company's property.
The company says it should have been
eleven per cent. The state says the
amount should have been lower and
that certain items upon which the in
terest was figured by the master
should have been excluded.
Highway Board Boosts Pay

Attacks Mathis Road Act.


Assistant Attorney General William
Newcorn, acting for Governor Silzer,
attacked the validity of the Mathis
road law before eight of the nine
JUSTICES OF the Supreme Court. Two
questions are involved, whether the
law was legally passed and whether
the Assembly had authority to vote
on it the same day the Senate re-pass-
ed the bill over the governors veto.
The Mathis law proposed a 53-mile
stretch of state highway from Toms
River to Camden, estimated to cost
$1,000, 900. The last day of the 1923
legislative session, the Assembly, by
vote of 35 to Is, re-adopted the Mathis
bill.
Lewis S. Garrison, legislative cor
respondent of the Newark Evening
News, testified before Supreme Court
Commissioner Theodore Backes that
seven Assemblymea we're incorrectly
reported. Garrison maintained the
Mathis act received but % votes, in
of final adoption.
Six of the seven legislators, whose
votes were questioned, decided to
stand by the house record. The re-
port of Commissioner Backes was pre-
scented to the Supreme Court.
Major Leon Barry Of Toms River,
representing Senator Thomas A. Math-
is of Ocean, urged the court to uphold
the law. Chief Justice Gummere
thanks counsel for their investigation
into the question whether a vetoed bill
can be acted upon by both houses of
the legislature on the anne day.
On this point the assistant attorney
general quoted the testimony of Upton
S. Jeffreys, clerk of the house of as
sembly, that since 1901 a vetoed bill
has laid over in the house of origin
one legislative day. After an investi-
cation of legislative records since 1845
Mr.. Newcoru said: "An examination
of the same would indicate hat while
in some instances during the early
portion of the sessions bills would lie
over after being transmitted from the
house of origin, that vetoes which
came in near the close of the sessions
were acted upon Immediately by the
second house as soon as received from
the house of origin"
Set Aside Land Sale
A decree has been filed in the Court
of Chancery setting aside the sale to
the state of seven and one-half acres
of land at Perth Amboy owned by the
w. J. Donnell Lumber Company for
$3.50, 900. The land purchase figured
in the investigation of the Edwards
State Highway Commission, which is
being conducted by Attorney General
McCraH.
Within ten days the company is re-
quired to deposit the $3.50, 900 it re-
ceived from the state with the state
treasury. The deed is dated June %,
1922.
During the progress of the investi-
cation the company signifed its wil,-
ingness to return the money to the
state if the lands would be recon
veyed. In accordance with that prom

HARVEY INTRODUCES TEA
 AS WHITE HOUSE CUSTOM

LONDON, March 7.-How the Brit ish national custom of pausing fol afternoon tea" was introduced into the White House at Washington to the virtual disruption of White House rou tine was revealed by Ambassador Harvey upon his return from the debt funding conference at Washington.
 "I don't suppose afternoon tea had been served in the White House since it was built" Ambassador Harvey said, land when I first asked for af ternoon tea the servants did not know what I was talking about. They soon caught on, however, and thereafter there was considerable rivalry among the servants as to which should serve me my tea"
 Tea in America, where it is the GUS tom to dine early in the evening, is not necessary, the Ambassador said but in England, where the dinner hour is much later, tea is a life-saving bridge for the gap between lunch and dinner.

NURSING LOSES OUT
 AS POPULAR WORK

CHICAGO, March 7.-Nursing, the ideal profession of a large number of girls few years ago, is losing it's popularity, if figures given by Dr. Karl Meyer, assistant warden of the Cook County Hospital, reflects the situation in other parts of the coun- try.
 Young women of today are not going in for nursing, Dr. Meyer asserted, offering in proof of his statement the declaration that the number of girls preparing for a nurses career has been reduced from 255 in 1917 to 123 at present in the Illinois training school.
 The number of undergraduate nurses, who perform the bulk of the nursing work in the hospitals, drop ping as follows in the past five years : 1917, 255; 1918, 290; 1919, 235; 1920, 21O; 1921, 149; 1922, 143.
