F DIT O RI A L s
SCHOOLS GREATEST
NEED IS PUBLICITY
Says President of Trenton Board of
Education.

Says President of Trenton Board of
Education.
w. G. Wherry, president of the
Trenton Board of Education, said re-
Gently in the Trenton Times, "The
great need of the public schools of
today is publicity. If through the
columns of the press the people
can be informed as to what the
schools are doing, and how. they are
attempting to accomplish the educa-
ton Of the children, | feel very GER
tain that both moral and financial
support will be freely given"
1t might be well for the Lam
bertville Board of Education to con-
slider the above statement seriously.
This paper has long contended
that the people should be taken into
the confidence of the school officials.
If this had been done there would
have been no quarrel over the pro-
posed school improvements last
year in Lambertville.
There seems to be a Public be
damned attitude in the minds of
the Lambertville school officials, and
it is a very unhealthy attitude.
They will find it out to their sor-
row sooner or later.

TRAINING CAMP EQUIPMENT

TRAINING CAMP EQUIPMENT
Boys throughout the nation, who
have been designated to attend Citi-
zens' Military Training Camps dur
ing the summer period, have received
notice from the war department that
their equipment should consist of:
Zone suitcase or grip, large or
medium size with lock and key,
containing suits thin underwear;
2 pairs pajamas handkerchiefs; A
, face, bath towels; toilet and shaw
ing outfit.
"Optional: Linen shirts with at
tached collars for wear off duty
athletic and baseball clothes, shoes
and cap; bathing suit; light sweater
bedroom slippers; tennis racket
musical instruments; fountain pen
camera. No firearms"
1t is sensible equipment. There
is no doubt that the $4,000 young
men who will receive instruction al
the camps this summer will be
mentally and physically benefited
by their work and play. Many
thousands of other young men coulC
not attend these camps because OF
the lack of money to carry on the
work.

VETS BUREAU REFUSES

st. Paul, Minn.,-St. Paul Post
No. 8, one of the largest American
Legion posts in the country, recent
ly went on record unanimously in
support of Arthur Frazier, Indian
veteran of South Dakota, who has
been trying to establish his indemnity
to the satisfaction of the Veterans
Bureau for the past two years. The
Veterans Bureau maintains the real
arthur Frazier" was killed in ac-
ton and is now buried in Nebraska.
Harry Synott, Arthur Frazier's
platoon sergeant during the war,
speaking before st. Paul Post, said
that Frazier identified him and
number of other members of the
platoon. He also declared that the
measurements of the body the war
department sent to Frazier's parents
as the body of their son did not
tally with the actual measurements
of Frazier.

WHAT A HARD TIME HE MUST
HAVE HAD IN THE WAR

(From Mems Wear, trade paper)
Slumber wear has not developed
so greatly in the English capital as
in the French. | find that those
men who used to sleep in silk or
crepe de chine are now favoring
foulard. Foulard is not only de-
lightfully comfortable, but it has
wonderful wearing properties, and
say this after my own experiences
in the Great War. Two pairs of
foulard pajamas outlived the entire
campaign-rather a good record,
considering the so-called attempts
at washing which ones servant
made.

ANOTHER QUESTION
FOR THE KHAN


In the last issue of this paper
asked the question us THE XII
KLUX KHAN AN OFF-SHOOT OF
PROHIBITIONS" One of our sub
scribers has answered this question
in letter which is published else
where in this issue.
And as the other question created
lot of interest, here is another
question for tht Klan:--
is THE KHAN OPPOSED TO
THE FREEDOM OF WORSHIP OF
THE CATHOLIC AND JEWISH
FAITH?
Ample evidence has been shown
that the Catholic Church is bitter
ly opposed to the Khan, and this
would seem to be a logical question.
Perhaps Am American will also
answer this for us.

SOMETHING TO BE
THANKFUL FOR

A dinner was given in New York,
at which a well-known actor sat at
the guest table. When the hour for
starting the feast arrived the
POSTMASTER, very religious man,
discovered that no minister of the
Gospel was present, though several
had been invited In this emergen-
cy he turned to the actor and
asked him to say grace.
The actor rose, bowed his head,
and in the midst of deep hush
said fervently:
"There being no clergyman pres
emit, let us thank God!"

Top of Pixies Peak

Nobody, in recent years, has seen
the top Of Pixies Peak. That is be-
cause the tip reposes quietly in the
pocket of Chauncey Thomas. He
took the tip" a small particle of
granite that reposed higher than
any Of its fellows, from its resting
place years ago, and now it is worn
smooth and round in his pocket.
This can hardly smack Of vandal-
ism, for nothing but a tiny pebble
was removed, and nobody will ever
miss it. He says in Outdoor Life:

PRESIDENT .I.VvL.A
The Land of Red Trout.

Within easy distance of New
England and other eastern states
is a great outdoor country that has
scarcely been scratched. It is the
Gaspe country across the Gulf of
the St. Lawrence from Labrador
In fact, all Of that region is COM
paratively unknown, but the Gasne
fishing, famous for its salmon. ar
fords the finest kind of fishing for
red trout in it's inland lakes.
| confess I don't know what the
red trout is, for / have never seen
one. But have talked with re-
turned anglers, and have read ac-
counts written by others, and am
convinced that not only are there
red trout in plenty in this country
but that the red trout must be a
wonderful fish.
According to some anglers. the
Canadian red trout outfqhts the
salmon or any other kind of trout
known. John B. DeMille in For
est and Stream" tells of having
found the water literally alive
with trout" in some of the inland
lakes in the Gaspe country. The red
trout are described as large front
beautifully colored and demon
fighters.

Moose as Aquatic Animals.

The aquatic propensities OF
moose, | find, are not so well known
as they should be. The fact that
such a monster animal is so at
home IN the water is almost incom-
prehenslble. But the moose will
sink into mud deep enough to
hopelessly mire a cow or horse, and
will walk out easily This is be-
cause his hind legs are almost
double jointed, and he can lift his
hooves as high as his back and can
almost scratch his ears with them.
Here's what Henry Braithwaite
says about him:
The late DR.. Wheeler who hunt
ed many years with me, and who
was killed in France during the
World War, in one Of his articles
referring to moose called them
swamp hogs | think that this
is very appropriate name, as they
spend most of their time in sum-
mer IN swamps, lakes and dead wa
ters, feeding on pond lilies and
aquatic plants. They will go down
to the bottom Of the lakes and feed
on the vegetation that grows there,
and will stay under water long
enough to drown two or three men,
one after another.
They nearly destroyed many Of
the best fishing lakes by feeding
on the bottoms and making the
water so muddy the fish couldn't
live in them.
I remember once padding along
dead water when something rose
behind me which took such a start
out me that l nearly upset the ca
noe, thinking it was some sea mon

Fierce Fish.

Every angler knows the crack
about the fish that were so big and
so hungry the fisherman had to
hide behind tree to bait his hook.
A fine yarn, but the other day a
man found a small section of a
steel fishing rod in the stomach of
a salmon. Is it one of those grue-
some, untold tales of the wilder
ness? In other words, what did the
hungry salmon do with the angler
himself?

crew of men were forced to drive a
locomotive through n solid flame of fire
and over four wooden bridges, one of
which was ablaze, to save themselves
from death when the Lyman Lumber
Company plant, twenty miles south of

night
After most Of the men had been dis
charged, the locomotive returned in an
effort to save the burning bridge, but
it had already collapsed.
Three girls employed in the cook
house Of the company stuck to their
jobs, providing food for fire fighters
until all hope of saving the camp had
been given up. They were then forced
TO flee through a woods, as a path
leading from the camp was covered
with flames.

NEW YORK, Aug. THE story of
12-year-old Sylvia Mullen that Ed
ward W. Browning, wealthy realtor,
had promised to adopt her, was denied
today by Browning.
He also denied the girls account of
party last night with him and his
newly adopted daughter, Mary Lou
Use.
There was no party last night"
Browning said.
Il retired early and the last time
! saw the Mullen girl was in my Of
flee yesterday"
The girl told her story when she re-
turned to her Bronx home early this
morning after having been missing for
several hours.
Sylvia excitedly related that while
she was guest of Browning and his
newly adopted daughter, Mary Lou
Use, at party last night, the realtor
had promised to adopt her.
BROWNING DENIES.
"He said that in just two weeks he
is going TO adopt me. Then /, too. will
be a sure-enough Cinderella. Oh, i
want a real education so much and i
do so want TO study music.
"Mother couldn't earn enough to
give me these things and I had given
up hope when Mr.. Browning told me
] was to be Sylvia Browning. Doesn't
that sound grand?"
The girls mother, a widow, partly
confirmed the adoption story, asserting
that Browning already had entered
into negotiations with her for the
adoption of Sylvia.
"A few hours later when Browning
was reached by telephone at his home
in Kew Gardens, he denied the story
of both the party and the promise to
adopt the girl.
MAY PROSECUTE.
While Sylvia was adding another
chapter to Browning's adoption cpl
sodes, the authorities were threaten
ing to prosecute him and the parents
Of Mary Louise, under the law which
prohibits the barter and sale of chill
dren.
Mr.. Browning frankly admitted CIV
ing each of Mary's parents $500 after
the formal adoption as a surprise
present" and to express his good will
toward them.
Bird s. Coler, commissioner of pub
lie welfare, branded the adoption as
highly immoral" and as merchandise
ing transaction"
He said he would confer with Dis
trict Attorney Newcomb, of Queens
county, and investigate all the details
Commissioner Coler said he had re-
ceived hundreds Of protests from citi-
zens against the adoption.
Mr.. Browning obtained a divorce in
Paris last year, his wife keeping one
foster-daughter and he the other,
Dorothy Sunshine,
His attorney said it was Dorothy's
longing for a playmate that led the
millionaire to adopt Mary.
MARY UNHAPPY.
The fact that school board records
show Mary to be 81 years old, in
stead of 16, as she claimed, did not
worry either Mr.. Coler or Mr.. Brown
ing.
The former held that the law
against selling and buying children
applies to all ages.
