CITIES FEAR A BIG
BLAST FROM POWDER
MANY MILLIONS POUNDS OF
EXPLOSIVES STORED IN
NEW JERSEY.

More than 35,O00000 pounds OF
powder, torpedoes, deadly picric acid
and army munitions are stored within
50 miles of New York city and Phila-
delphia, Pa. There are enough explo-
sives stored in Middlesex county, n.
J., to blow up New York city and
Philadelphia in one big blast
This tact has been learned since the
fatal blast at the plant OF the Am
monte Company, in New Jersey some
weeks ago. Since that time the public
has been demanding an investigation,
and the board OF freeholders of Mid
dlesex county is preparing a report
to Governor Silzer A state law re-
garding the handling and storage OF
explosives may result.
Facts Already Learned.
The board has already learned that
100000 pounds OF picric acid, dead
hest of all explosives, is stored in the
county, besides 100000 pounds OF gun
cotton, 100000 pounds of munitions
and 100000 pounds of powder.
The county solicitor said that it is
within the boards power to take legal
action against those plants which
might be 'criminally negligent" i'll
handling their explosive stores.

lib FARMERS FACE GOOD DEMAND FOR THEIR 1924 CROP
~SilUer Threads Among the Gold,
FdUonte Song Brings SoroWto Author

Hart banks, the composer, died
in 1908, alone in his old age and
deserted by his children. Shortly
after he wrote the song he and his
wife became estranged, and al
though efforts for a reconciliation
were made they were futile.
After the death of the composer
law suits over the royalties Of. the
song split the remaining members
OF the family and left the aged
mother alone to bear her cross.
During the closing years of her
life she carried her secret locked
within her heart and lived so poor
ly just as thousands of others in
that section of the city, that none
suspected that a real heart throb"
story was in her life. So obscure
ly had she lived that though she
died two days ago her death was
not known until Saturday morn
ing.
Is it not a bit strange that
song so we'll known and loved as
"Silver Threads Among the Gold"
should have brought sorrow and
despair, disrupted a family, es-
tranged a husband and wife, and
sent the man, along the road to
death, alone in his declining years,
while the woman to whom the
song was written died of broken
heart. uncared for and destitute?
Yet, it is true.

NEW YORK, N. Y.--How one

Death came mercifully day or

from her earthly SORROWS and she
was buried in a simple grave af-
ter short funeral services in a lit
tie Brooklyn chapel,
Her husband, Hart ?. banks,
wrote the song in 1874. and it was
a love song to his wife. When he
composed the song, little did he
know that the words and music
would be sung not only through
out America but everywhere in
the world where man still makes
use OF music to tell his love to
woman. The song that has been
translated into practically every
civilized language and the sale of
copies has mounted into the mil

MUST
REPORT EXPENSES
LAW REQUIRES THOSE WHO
RAN IN RECENT PRIMARY
TO FILE EXPENSES.

Every candidate for office in the
counties that held primaries on March
10Th is required by law to file an item
lied statement of his expenditures
within 20 days after the election date,
which will expire on April 9Th.
In the belief that failure to secure
certificate OF election is the only
penalty for violation of the law, de-
feated candidates have been under the
impression that it is not necessary for
them to make reports of their eXpendi-
lures but this is not the case. Fol-
lowing is a paragraph, OIL, in the
criminal code OF the state;
whoever shall violate any OF the
provisions of section % of the civil
code. on the subject of publishing a
report of campaign expenses, shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor."
What the Code Says.
Section % of the civil code provides
that all candidates for county Offices,
including county and city iudgeships,
shall within 20 days after the election
in which they are candidates, file with
the clerk of The superior court of the
county in which they made their races
complete reports of their campaign ex-
penditures. Candidates for judgeships

are required to file the reports with
the clerks Of all counties in their cir
cults, and also to publish their reports
in some newspaper of general circula-
ton in the circuit Publication is not
required OF candidates for county of

to reverse the familiar process,
banana shortcake But yes, there
were no Strawberries. There was
apple pie, pumpkin pie raisin pie

been too much rain in Florida and
so there were no Strawberries.

WHERE is Buddy? asked

w7HERE is Buddy? asked a
 w father at the dinner table. "1
 sent him to bed for disobed- ience." complacently replied the moth- CT.
 After dinner the father went to the boys room, ostensibly to bid him good night. He expected to find remorse- full child, but he beheld an indignant lad, who explained, ",Now, Daddy, was I disobedient? You listen| And then followed a story of how mother told him to do something and he did it. 'Then," continued the excited lad, "she scolded and said I didn't know how to obey, and she chased me to bed. But I've thought good trick to play on her tomorrow to get even.'
 The father realized the child was not guilty of disobedience. He fully under stood that the rebellious feelings were just a natural sequence of unjust punishment, and his sympathies were with the child. In talking it over with the mother she too discovered Ter error and empatically announced, Hereafter shall make sure he under stands what want him to do," which is a good resolution for every mother.
 Obedience must be demanded by the mother, but she must use discretion in giving commands and when she tells her child to do thing it is decidedly nee essary that she sees that the child does what she told him to.
 When you call Junior to come in the house and he keeps on playing, that is disobedience and should not be over- looked. Keeping him indoors for an hour when he condescends to come in, may be sufficient punishment to bring prompt obedience when he is called after that.
 Disinclination to do as told is often too leniently handled by indulgent mothers. The mother who permits her child to argue or sulk about doing what he is told is losing in authority. If she lets him off on doing it, as many mothers, either through impatience or leniency, do, she will not be able to exact obedience nor control her child,
