MATAWAN MAIL
ACTION TAKEN
Borough is to Have Village
Delivery System Starting
About June 1st.

MATAWAN, March 27.--Starting
about June /, this borough 10 to
have village delivery system for
its mail. Although the people Of the
borough and the council are against
this sort OF system, It being the de-
sire to have installed city deliv-
cry system, according to Senator
Walter e. Edge, this is impossible
at the present time. because OF the
appropriation, but he promises that
at some future date the borough
may obtain the city system.
Ua2er the village system, mail is
delivered once a, day by a non-uni-
formed carrier, his salary being
about $500 a year, it is said. Doubt
has been expressed by the members
of the borough council that a man
competent to do this work can be
obtained for this money. The notice
that, Matawan Is to have the village
system. was received In q commuI,i-
cation by Postmaster Forman r.
Thompson, from Cenator Edge, who
IS chairman OF the Senate Commfttse
on postoffices and post roads.
In his communication Mr.. Edge
points out the following:
''This will provide for one regular
carrier and six hours auxiliary SER
vice. greatly regret that, due to
the condition OF the appropriation,
city delivery could not be granted,
but Mr.. Glover states this may be
possible later.
However. 7 feel we have made
one step in advance, and are just
that much nearer the ultimate goal
we seek. which, trust, will not be
greatly delayed"
In order to come within the bud
get, the Matawan once will suffer
with other Offices Of the country
during the next quarter. The ofiice
here will be allowed no auxiliary
clerk or overtime.

NOW THAT SPRING is HERE

r The winter Of 1ez2-1o23 has
passed without single serious in
terruption Of Public Service street
car service because OF snow or
storm. Yet, storms were numerous,
the total fall Of snow was heavier
than in many years and traffic in
street car streets was more con-
gested than it had ever been before.
Service was maintained under
such conditions because Public
Service was prepared. 1t had the
snow fighting equipment; 1t had the
snow fighting organization, and its
men had the fighting spirit that puts
service before their own comfort or
convenience.
The ninety-one sweepers and
twenty-six snow plows that the
Company keeps in readiness
couldn't have done the trick with
out the cooperation of the men,
and the men couldn't have kept the
tracks clear without the equipment.
Public Service tracks are laid in
many hundreds of miles of streets.
In all of these it keeps the space
between its rails and for consid-
erabie distance outside free from
snow. In most Of them it clears the
way not only for its own cars, but
for all other vehicles.
I The expenditure of many thou
sands Of dollars for snow fighting
Is another indication of the nu-
merous ways in which Public Serv-
ice Railway Company contributes
TO the public welfare.

ooethe,s Superb Faust.

Christopher Marlowe, an English
dramatic poet of the Sixteenth cen
fury, was the first to use the old leg
md of Faustus, and he deals rather
gently with the character of Mephis
topheles, making him sadder and
more dlgnifed than he appears In
Goethe's drama. 1t was the German
poet who placed that demOniacal be
ing before the world for all time, who
created that sneering, sardOnlc indi
vidual, powerful and eXacting, who
makes Faust sign their contract with
blood; brimful of vanity, anxious tC
show his power by the magic creation
of wine drawn from a wooden table
enjoying life as a man, yet retaining
oil his diabOlical characteristics.

agents and have been selling auto

WORDS OF GERMANIc ORIGIN
Many Of Today's Most Common Ex-
.presslons Can Easily Be Traced
to the "Angies."

Perhaps the saddest Of English
words-the word which brings up more
thoughts Of grief and fear than any
other worlds "death." This word
did not come to us from the classic
lands Of Greece and Rome. 1t was
one of the words of the Germanic peo-
pies and has been English ever since
English was. The Angles, who came
TO Britain from what is now south
eastern Schieswig. called the land that
they invaded and helped TO conquer
"Angleland" and from that word
England" "Anglische" or a word
something like 1t, came to be ENG
fish," These Angles, and all the other
Germanic peoples, had this word
death" long before the English Ian
guage was spoken, and In the earliest
English we find the word spelled
"deth" and sometimes "deeth" and no
doubt from the spelling 'deeth" we
arrived at spelling death"
"Skull" was another word of our
Germanic forebears and it meant a
cup, bowl, or drinking vessel, and from
the shape of mans head, as 1t ap-
peared long after death, the relic came
to be called skull" because its form
suggested a Skull" a "skOle," or a
"skal," or drinking vessel. We often
read Of northern barbarians who
drank out of Skulls" but it does not
necessarily follow that they drank out
Of the skulls OF the dead men, but
merely from their household skulls"
"skOls," or "skals," which were their
bowls or cups Of wood or stone.-
