Executive Of All
Says Sen. Whitney

"Let there no misunderstanding
as to where | stand and how / stand
as the Republican candidate for Govern
or New jersey" says Senator Arthur
Whitney in public statement.
Il have been chosen by one hundred
and fly thousand voters or more rep
resenting no special group or faction
to be the standard bearer Of the Re-
publican party.
Il am not the Anti-Saloon League
candidate or the candidate of any tn
er organization in any sense of the
word,
Il am tied to no individual or
group of individuals
1 certainly ma that very clear in
my primary fight when pledged my
self il elected Governor, to be the
Governor in fact as well as in name,
and submitted my candidacy to the
people on the basis of my public rec
ord and platform.
There IS one big issue that stands
out prominently as we line mp our
party forces against the forces of the
enemy. 1t is Coolidgeism as opposed
to Magnetism.
Zone represents the new order Of
practical idealism, honesty, efficiency
and economy in government: the other,
the political spoils system with all its
attendant evils of dishonesty, inef-
ficiency, corruption and graft,
"a united party working harmoni-
ously, can stamp out the plague OF
Magnetism which has disgraced New
Jersey in the eyes of the nation dur
ing the present and preceding State
administrations.
Il am sure that the people realize
this and want no Moore-Hague il

citizen in our State. irrespective Of
party affiliations, is opposed to the
HAGUE brand of politics and will well
come and vote for return to rugged
Republicanisn which is the symbol
of honest, cacale and decent govern
ment.

MaryerOus Tales Told
of Reptiles Strength

The boa constructor is the largest of
African serpents. The average length
of a full grown boa is usually not
much over 90 feet. The record boa is
without doubt the one which caught
famous explorer in its coils.
Spoke had shot young buffalo cow
which, without his knowing it, the
snake had been in the act of attacking.
and his left forearm was caught be-
tween the buffalo's body and single
fold of the constructor. The explorer
was forced to stand perfectly still I'M
til the serpent had crushed the buffalo
and relaxed it's coils
Then he sprang away, and almost at
the same instant his friend shot the
boa through the head. In its death
struggles the monster leveled the
grass, bush and saplings for yards
round. 1t was over fifty feet in length
and its greatest girth was nearly three
feet.
There is only one other authentic
instance of a larger snake being killed
by man. That was the anaconda shot
in Brazil by Lieutenant Colonel Faw-
cett, another well-known explorer,
and it was mentioned by him in lee
ture given before the Royal Geo
graphical society In London.
This immense reptile exceeded sixty
feet in length, but could not be ac-
curately measured because a part Of
its tail remained under water, and the
colonel, who had only two terrified In
dams with him, was utterly unable to
move the giant bulk.
The muscular strength of constric-.
tor is almost appalling. Some years
ago a professional snake tanner named
Karolyi was giving an exhibition in
Madrid with an 18-foot python. In
some way he managed to vex it,
whereupon the creature frightened its
coils, and with a gasp he fell fiat on
the stage. When his body was ex-
amined it was found that there were
no fewer than 81 fractures OF various
bones.

Old Medical Treatise

The search for the fountain of eter-
nal youth did not begin with the old
Spaniard Ponce de Leon. A chapter
on How to change an old man into a
young man of twenty" has been found
in a treatise on medical science and
surgery written 1000 years B. O. The
papyrus on which it is written, says
Prof. James Breasted, is ''incompara-
bly, the most important body Of medi-
cal knowledge which has survived to
us from ancient Egypt, or for that
matter from the orient anywhere" In
this treatise is a passage which shows
that the writer knew that paralysis Of
one side Of the body is caused by a
brain affection of the other side This
fact was lost for more than 1900 years
and rediscovered In modern times

Golf Ball kills Grab

Many stories emanate from the Vard-
GUS clubs about Detroit. Birds have
been killed by flying golf balls, rabbits
have been slain and numerous and
sundry other unique incidents have
been reported. The latest one is told
by Pr. w. G. Melvin, Hamilton avenue
dentist who claims to have killed q
lobster-sized crab with his white pill.
Doctor Melvin says that he was driving
from the eighth tee at Meadowbrook
Country club when his ball hit some
thing and stopped dead. He says he
found that the ball hit huge crab
which Ind wandered onto the fairway
from nearby creek. And that's one
more for the boys to shoot at.-De.

"A Jolly Good Fellow"

Because of birth George Fen
berg is numbered among the
chosen people of Jehovah, is no
reason why he is guilty Of the
objectionable sin and should be
forever and eternally damned
according to the verdict of a
certain people who claim a Jew
should have no rights or priv
leges on this round earth Of
ours.
But a vast number of Newark
people have placed George way
up on the pedestal Of public es-
TEEN, and that his friends are
numbered by the thousands is
being daily evidenced by the
crowds calling at the Hospital to
jolly him up during his enforced
confinement which has resulted
from his unsuccessful attempt
to butt an automobile off the
street a few evenings ago.
MI. enOefS S ufllVefSal pOpu-
larity is no more than his just
due. He is one of our most pro-
gressive citizens, ever ready to
do anything within his power TO
promote the interests Of the
city, and always among the fore
most and most generous in char
liable enterprises. He never
asks whether a needy fellow
creature is Jew or Gentle, or
what is his religion, but jumps
in with his shoulder to the wheel
and pushes like a Trojan until
the job is brought to a triumph
ant termination. They say "let
George do it," and to tell the
truth, he generally does.

Mystery and Romance
in "Valley of Voices"

Everyone who has read either "The
Whelps Of the Wolf" or "ToileIs Of
the Trail" by George T. Marsh, will
be glad to hear that another novel OF
the North country has come from this
popular authors pen. "The Valley Of
Voices" is the title, and the scene this
is laid in the Hudson's Bay country.
Mystery, romance and action have
been deftly combined in George
Marsh's latest work, and readers will
be pleased to know that this serial
will begin in the Newark Leader
soon.
George Marsh was graduated from
Yale and studied for the law at Har-
ward. Twice he has been a member
of the Rhode Island legislature. Dur
ing the World war he was an officer
in the air service-and saw active fight
ing at the MeuseArgonne in 1913.
"The Valley Of Voices" has been
called by many critics the best of
Marsa's books. His skill at character
delineation, particularly those Of the
modern Indian Of Canada, has been
commented upon. The plot Of this
latest novel is an unusual one, found
ed largely on the activities Of fur
traders and their experience with sup
erstitious Indian trappers
"The Valley Of Voices" starts in the
Newark Leader shortly. B sure anG
read it. You'll enjoy every chapter.

The trustees reported that the en-

the same; so that in the very near
future we will be occupying quarters
better arranged for the use Of the
Assembly than those now enjoyed
