STATE TROOPERS ASSERT FISK WILL BE ACCUSED OF MANSLAUGHTER AS DRIVER OFCAR
MINSTREL PROVES A BIG HIT
Edward F. Lyman submitted his resignation by letter as a member of the boro council, Monday night. Having been a member of council for nine years and chairman o f the finance and water committees for lesser periods, he stated that the pressure of bis own business as cashier of the First National bank o f this place, prevented him from conscientiously continuing the municipal duties.
“ I have not the time to do it. I take the position of councilman seriously and it is too much of a tax on my time” , he said.
Although he has been opposed to the acquisition of Shark River frontage because of the financial responsibility involved, Mr. Lyman; declared that the riverfront question had “ absolutely nothing” to doj with his resignation.
He was appointed to council in I 1918 by Mayor George W. VanNote, who resigned as councilman then to become mayor, and served continuously until the present time. He was president of the councilmen in 1920, and, as chairman of the finance committee and cashier of the bank,

Purim, which, this year, will be celebrated, to-day, beginning however, on last evening, is one of the minor holidays of the Jewish Calendar; It commemorates the deliverance of the Jews of Persia from the power of Haman, the vizier of King Ahasuerus. Haman had cast lots (hence the name “Purim”, which means “ lots” ) to determine which month was to be set for the massacre of all Jews in Persia. Mordecai and his neice, Esther becoming aware of the plot succeeded in deposing Haman and in obtaining royal permission for the Jews from the threat of annihilation and their victory over their enemies have ever after been celebrated as the Feast of Purim.

SENATORS LIKETH EIR BEAN SOUP
Favorite Dish at the Capitol Restaurant.
Washington. — Senators have as many, if not more, differences in their Capitol restaurant as they do in committees or in debate on the floor of their chamber. Home influences appear to follow them wherever they go. New Englander, Westerner, Southerner, each spurns the dishes most relished by the others.
The job of striking a balance among these conflicting appetites falls to the lot of Joseph 1. Langer, manager of the six senate restaurants, who finds it harder to meet the requirements of the 96 members than to cater to the multitudes of visitors that pass through the restaurants daily.
Those multitudes are a widely fluctuating quantity. One day he is called on to serve only a few hundred patrons, while the next day he may have to feed two or three thousand. He solves the problem thus presented by closely studying the news of the senate’s proceedings. If a popular subject is up for discussion, he knows that a large crowd will .visit the galleries and will require his ministrations.
It’s possible for him to take reasonable chances in trying to satisfy the public patrons, but that is not the case with the senators. They are, so to speak, “ the boss,” and during his years of experience he has made it his business to know their preferences.
One thing he has learned is to keep on tap a bountiful supply of old-fashioned bean soup. That dish appears to be nonpartisan, having the support of senators from all sections. One day, some years ago, he removed it from the menu. The senate of the United States immediately took informal but vigorous action, and bean soup was restored to the menu, permanently. At present 20 gallons are made and consumed every day.
Steam Shovel at Harvard Makes Seismograph Move
Boston.—Harvard’s seismograph, the sensitive instrument which records on an average one earthquake a week, has been in a state of unrest for several weeks. Instead of recording a fine line, the needle has been tracing a heavy, jerky line.
This daily and almost continuous “earthquake” was a great mystery for a time until Dr. Kirtley F. Mather discovered that it was caused by a steam shovel excavating the foundations for the new Harvard chemistry building, near by. Every time it hits a rock or the root of a tree the seismograph records a violent “earthquake”.
Incidentally, the operators of the shovel would be surprised to find how close a check Doctor Mather can keep on their work. He can look at the day’s record and tall, to a second, the time that the men started work in the morning, how long they took for their luncheon, and what time they quit at night.
Five-Month-Old Baby“ Swears” for Passport
Hartford, Conn.—Baby John Brown Wishert Rodger, five months old, is a claimant for the title of the youngest American to make oath to the statements in a-passport request and have a passport issued in his own name.
At the age of four months John Brown swore to the truth of certain facts in a language his father was able to translate, and affixed his mark. It was accepted in Washington and a passport issued.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Rodger, the baby’s parents, are from Scotland. Baby John, will be an American citizen automatically when he is twenty-one, but when his father and mother prepared to sail for a visit to their old home they found that he and his three-year- old sister, Margaret, would have to have passports.

B° r0Ugh having but $93’39 of unredeemed Liens as Franchise and Gross Receipts Taxes:
At the beginning of 1926 there were $5,897.80 of uncollected Fran- chise and Gross eRceipts Taxes. This amount was collected and in ad- dihon the full levy for 1926 was collected prior to December 31.Deficit Unexpended Balances Account:_ t Tbii Debcit occurned in 1925, but was not included in the 1926 Bud-f t t i S n ^ eb t° slrvice”?6" in the 1927 Budget Hnder the apP™-Emergency Revenues:
This was occasioned by reason of a lawsuit brought against the Bor-° pgb- ^he. G haS been lpcI.uded under the head of “ Debt Service” in the 1927 Budget an appropriation to cover the amount.Due Local School Custodian:
This represents the amount of Local School Tax still owing to the ?n°as?hedufe A ^ ” 38 December 31- 192f)> a" d * -set forth in detail Surplus Revenue:
From a balance of $23,25o./3 on January 1, 1926, Surplus Revenue WaVJLCr*e?£-d t° f 1’292-33 011 December 31, 1926. It must be kept in mind that this is not a free cash surplus but is to a great extent composed of uncollected taxes. vCollector and Treasurer’s Records:
The Borough is to be congratulated on the service which is being rendered them by the Collector-Treasurer’s office and Messrs- Joeck, Senior and Junior, and to be complimented for the very excellent condition in which their books arc maintained. These records are both accurately and neatly kept, and are equaled by few in the State Water Utility:
Little comment is needed on the Water Operations except to state that as a reesult of the operations for 1926 a net profit of $8,381.17 was realized.Ordinances:
We were glad, to note that there was considerable improvement in the ordinance situation in 1926. However, the majority of ordinances passed still do noDstate that the supplemental debt statement has been filed nor do they mention the net debt percentage.
In connection with ordinance 207—Construction of Four New Jetties —it was noted that bids were advertised for, were received and a contract awarded on April 12,1926. The ordinance was not finally passed until May 3. 1926. Under certain court decisions, a contract let in this manner would be of no effect and the governing body should endeavor to see that this situation does not recur.
The statement of purpose in some of the ordinances passed is rather indefinite and it is felt that more detail should be set forth along these lines.Recommendations:
That in the future, no transfers of capital expenditures be made to a current budget appropriation.
That an adequate docket be procured by the recorder and that this he kept in a proper manner.
That no 'mntract he let until the ordinance authorizing the improvement is finalh- massed, and that considerationjie given to see that these ordinances specifically detail the improvement or project contemplated, and contain all information required under the statute.
Tn view' of the coonerntion which the Borough had accorded this Department, we are going into a' little detail as to recommended procedure. We trust that you will feel free at all times to take up any matters pertaining vrt.,r finances with the Department and we sincerely hope that we may serve you in connection with your future audits as in the past.

Built for Long Service
The "BONNYKNIT" Cravenetten Processed
for •wet - ’weather service, and guaranteed fo r tkr^e years
C /C ^ H E "Bonnyknit” is good for three years V J o f sturdy service, and it is so guaranteed. Every modern safeguard was employed in its making. The fabric is a firm, knitted cloth made o f long strand wool— soft and smooth, light in weight, yet durable. It will hold its stylish shape under rigorous service.
The "Cravenette” moisture-resisting process is an added protection, which prolongs the life and beauty o f the cloth, the lines o f the garment, and reduces the necessity for pressing after showers. T he style is right, the tailoring o f accustomed Kirschbaum skill, and the colors are in tune with spring.

Simplicity Rules Daytime Fashions
Elaboration Is the Order of the Night, Paris Corre
spondent Says.
It is no fatted calf that the Paris couture is offering the prodigal elegantes this spring. Neither are those gallant advocates of ladies-as-they- ought-to-be singing any paeans of victory as a result of the early spring openings. For a dispassionate survey of the showings in Paris signifies unmistakably that there is to be another season of simplicity, mannishness and youth so far as daytime fashions are concerned, writes a Paris fashion correspondent in the New York Herald-Tribune. What crumbs of solace there may be are garnered from the facts that evening clothes are to be permitted an elaboration exceeding that of last year and that there will be an individualism throughout the mode which will even permit a degree o f ornateness before the sun goes down. But what are vaguely referred to as the trends of style will be uncompromisingly in favor of simple and often mannish effects except in the robe du soir.
Whenever a new season begins the first item scanned by the feminine world is the length of the skirt. Tim« has not dimmed the interest which surrounds the wandering hemline and even though it has been short these many recent seasons there is always the suspicion that it may achieve something radical at either the fall or spring openings. This season the first openings have done nothing more than maintain the status quo. They haye endorsed a hemline which Is never more than two inches below the knees and is more likely to be found half disclosing them. Of course lengthier skirts will undoubtedly be offered, but for dowagers rather than debutantes. Obviously it is impossible to establish a high degree of elaboration when one o f the bases of the mode is the short simple skirt.
Tweed to Be Worn.Tweeds are to be another, distin
guishing hallmark of the new season, taking these 6arly openings as criteria. And tweeds are absolutely incapable of any interpretation but a severe, mannish one. In the models so far shown they have been used for the short jacketed tailleur and for sports frocks which are found to find their way into the semi-formal occasions of the afternoon. As a matter of fact there is an excellent chance that the tailleur, after achieving nothing more than mediocrity these recent seasons, may suddenly find itself resting prettily near the head of the mode. Throughout these early showings it lias been inordinately stressed, and while in other years this emphasis on the part of the couture has had no effect on the haute monde, you may consider it definite that the tailored suit will attain a larger numerical appeal this spring than at any time since its revival several years ago. Another acute manifestation of the simple mannish trend in daytime fashions is the tuxedo dress which, although receding in popularity among the haute monde. will nevertheless gain more than compensating numbers in the ranks. And then there is the pantalette dress upon which Paul
noon. Particularly fetching Is the period robe du soir, which occupies a pre-eminent place in nearly all of the Paris showings. The period dress, or robe de style as it has been known under the Lanvin regime, is always a charming style when gracefully worn. This season it provides such a tremendous relief from the businesslike practicality of the daytime mode that its vogue for evenings will be greater than ever before. And so if you are one of those who have wished in vain for the revival of ancient grandeur you may quench your desires in an evening dress which is quite without limitation so far as grace, elaboration, tradition and luxury are concerned.
No Theme Neglected.So many different models are of
fered at each group of openings that almost no theme since the days of the beruffled Queen Elizabeth is neg-

Pull-Over Sweater of Ivory White Angora;, White Flannel Skirt.
Poiret bases his prediction of the be- trousered lady of 1945. Here and there it will be worn as the season progresses—it is just one more earnest of anti-elegance—inelegance, it might be termed in this instance.
The palliative to the elegantes comes in the evening mode. While simplicity is not out of place even at the formal danse du soir, elaboration is decidedly more in place. And, happily, at these Paris spring showings, it has taken a magnificently gorgeous and feminine form. As twinkling and glittering as it was a year ago, it has now added a new splendor- in the form of sweeping feminine silhouettes sufficiently graceful to make you forget the tweeded sportswoman of the after-

lected. You may therefore select from these profferings a style which is more feminine and more elaborate than what will be known as the typical models of the season. You will be gambling with chic when you wear it. There is a fine point of iconoclasin beyond which no woman can go in the pursuit of individualized smartness. But if you exercise your discretion and emphasize feminine elegance in a manner which does not intrude itself, your reward will be great. In achieving a chic unusual in these times you will stand apart from the crowd, as graceful and appealing a figure as the spring and summer fashions shall know. It may even be that you shall become a prophet with honor in your own country, for it is not beyond the range of possibility that before the season has reached its peak there will be a reaction from the constantly reiterated masculine simplicity which has governed the mode so many years. The elegantes have not given up the ghost. They are the OldrGuard of fashion—truculently they refuse to surrender.
Plaits and Boleros.That long-suffering and neglected
young lady, the Junior Miss, from the ages of eleven to seventeen, has been recognized at last and given a place in the march of the fashionable. She no longer needs to ape her debutante sister, nor does she desire to, because equally attractive costumes have been planned by the thoughtful Paris couturiers for her alone—frocks and coats which actually tide the gap be-N tween the playing child and the young lady, which are suitable in regard to age and activity. These days her choice of an afternoon frock is often- est in the realm of the velveteens, which .may be had in a rich dark red, hunter’s green, several shades of tan and brown, navy blue and brighter blue. For the sports occasion or school, jumpers of velveteen combined in one or two ways with plaid woolen mixture are very much in order; either the jumper may be of velveteen, perhaps in a golden tan, and the skirt of a plaited silk and wool mixture in which brown predominates, or the jumper may be plaid wool with a skirt of brown velveteen. Completing this costume is a small beige felt hat trimmed with grosgrain ribbon, the brim tilted in the back and slanting forward over her forehead. Her coat for the simple afternoon costume may be in Rodier’s novelty woolen, made double-breasted and collared in raccoon. Her sturdy pumps are of alii gator leather with military or Cuban heels.
Brushed silk is a favorite, too, for the sweater, sometimes the skirt as well, in the sports type of /frock. Crepe de chine skirts are worn with natural kasha jumpers, which are trimmed with two-inch bands of the chine of the plaited skirt. Light tan is a favorite color for the skirt, although, of course, more ravishing types are seen in blue sweaters with a fine line embroidered near the bottom in silver to match the plain, straight, blue and silver lame skirt. As you may have observed, a lot of old ideas are precisely reversed—but in silks the Jumpers are heavily embroidered In either silver or gold .and the skirt is plain, but has a touch of the decoration repeating- that in the jumper theme.
NEW YORK.—With eight Citizens’ Military Training Camps, offering free outdoor training to 4,000 youths, planned for the Second Corps Area this Summer, Major-General James H. McRae, Corps Commander at Governor’s Island, today moved to provide pqual enroliment opportunities for the young men of every county in the States of New York, New Jersey, and Delaware.
Despite an early rush of volunteers which filled nearly twenty per cent, of the available vacancies during the opening week of enrollment, the ■total of 4,000 vacancies allotted the Second Corps Area will be equitably apportioned under a system of quotas among the 86 counties comprising the three States. Each quota is to be determined by the' population of the county and the mileage separating it from the nearest training camp.
At the same time General McRae announced the appointment of a prominent resident of each county to act as chairman of a committee of public spirited citizens which will direct the enrollment of the quota within the limits of the county.
Admission to the C. M. T. Camps is open to young men between the ages of 17 and 24 years of good character and average health. All necessary expenses are paid by the Government. The railroad fare to camp and return is supplied. Wholesome food, uniforms, medical attention, laundry service, and athletic equipment are provided.
Each of the eight encampments will last thirty days and there is no obligation for. future service in any component of the United States Army for those beginning the course.
No emphasis is placed on the military phase of the camps. Citizenship studies are stressed. Boxing, swimming, baseball, and track sports play an important part. Young men without prior training will be placed in the Basic course, which aims at the general mental, moral, and physical development of students.
Other courses, called the Red, the White, and the Blue, offer special advanced training in the various arms of the service, as Infantry, Cavalry, Field Artillery,' Coast Artillery, and Signal Corps.
Opening of the trainng camps has been set for July 1 when 1450 youths will attend the Basic and Infantry camp at Plattsburg, N. Y. Another camp in the same subjects will also be opened at Fort Niagara, N. Y., for 300 men. At Fort Ethan Allen, Vt., the Cavalry camp will get under way at the same time with 100 hoys attending.
The remaining five encampments will all open August 5. These are the second Plattsburg camp, for 1450 youths in the Basid and Infantry course; a similar camp at Fort Du Pont, Del., for 200 men; the Coast Artillery camp at Fort Hancock, N. J., for 300 students; the Signal Corps camp at Fort Monmouth, N. J., for 400 students, and the Field Artillery course at Madison Barracks, N. Y., for 200 students

The Hesitant Swain
C o l C p CDiminishing t Bars.
Low t Bar.
The man who usually has the goods but doesn’t deliver—the hesitant swain—how do we know him? In conversation with you he may give the impression of being right up to the minute, but does he act that way with strangers? Get his letter and look for these signs:
First notice if his writing runs up hill. If it runs neither uphill or on the level but is inclined to descend then he is easily discouraged. His t bar will start out with heavy pressure, perhaps, but it wil! get lighter as it goes along and will end with a sharp point. At the end of each word you will find the last letter fails to reach out toward the right. He will usually write a small hand. The capitals will be comparatively small and none of the upright letters will reach very high. Toward the end of each long word you will find that the letters become smaller. If he writes a back-hand style then you may put him down as having all of these traits to a pronounced degree. And seldom will you see the sign of emphasis—the heavy t bar or terminal. Look for the signs of repression in his writing as shown in the chapter on, ‘Does He Withhold His Ability?”

Shopping in ChinaFinding one’s way in Chinese cities
has its difficulties Capt. Robert Dollar, well known American steamship man, once set out to visit a wholesale store in Chefoo. He describes his experience as follows;
First we went through a grocery store into a courtyard containing beds of flowers and shrubs; from there we followed a crooked alley three feet wide into . another courtyard, then through another three-foot alley into a small open square. Bordering this square was the wholesale establishment we were in search of. There is, however, nothing unusual in finding important stores in such obscure li» calities in that country.
K new W hat H e W antedA society woman recently was giv
ing an elaborate dinner party, whlrh she permitted her rm-all son Freddie to attend. The hostess sat at the head of the table, and Freddie sat near the foot. All went well until the dessert course was reached. Deciding to ask maternal advice before partaking of the sweet Freddie called lustily to the amusement of all except his mother: "Hey, mom, may /have a hunk and a gob?”
His Taste Im peachedA minister was in the habit of fun
ning his hands through his hair while preaching his sermons, giving his hair the appearance of having never been combed. One Sunday as the congregation was leaving the church he over- Eeard one woman say to another:
"I wonder if he wears a wig?”The minister, knowing how his hair
must look, asked: “Do you think ifI w&ve a wig I would have picked out one like this?”
Artistic ability can be seen by original formations standing out and apart from the ordinary style of the ordinary mind. Evenness of writing and perfection of letters is usually found bnt at times the writing of an artistic type is disturbed by nerve energy. Then we find a person who is a better critic than workman and one who i« able to direct in the field of art, ii not actually producing.
Margins showing a sense of order and fine formation all through tin letter will classify the writer as having artistic ability.
Often the small o is made so smal!i that it appears as a pinhead. This iff a sign of originality, to be found when the writer is artistic.
When the word “of” is nothing moto than a scroll and slighted at that— when this occurs, the artistic sensat of the .writer is well defined. Often i dots are made like a doughnut.
And again the signs usually telling of vanity can be used to determine the artistic temperament of the writer This obtains when the rest of the writing is simple and clean in appearance,

Anything unlike copybook formation will indicate inventive ability on the originality to go ahead withoul copying some form or plan of proce dure. Unusual capitals or small lette:; formations indicate the self-starting type. If he had to wait to be told, he would write as others of the “Let George do it” lodge write.
Long pronounced t bars flying to th-» right, indicating a self-assured, sell starting, restless writer will be found in the script of the one who goal ahead by himself. Large writing in usually the style of this writer and energy will be seen sticking out al! over it. Many unusual strokes will be seen. The upper loop of the letter f will be large and indicate a been mentality. Writing will be fairly heavy but firm and clean. Loops will mostly be missing under line.

No man or woman can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Too much rich food creates acids which clog the kidney pores so that they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood. Then you get sick. Rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, constipation, dizziness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders often come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache In the kidneys or your back hurts, or If the urine is cloudy, offensive, full o f sediment, irregular of passage, or attended DY a sensation of scalding, begin to drink soft water in quantities; also get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for years to help flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to help neutralize the acids in the system so they no longer cause Irritation, thus often relieving bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink, which everyone can take now and then to help keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby often preventing serious kidney complications.

is apt to be a slowing up of the bodily functions. Good elimination, however, is just as essential to the old as to the young. Many old folks have learned the value of D oa n ’ s Pills when a stimulant diuretic to the kidneys is required. Scanty or burning passages of kidney secretions are often signs of improper kidney function. In most every community are scores of users and endorsers who acclaim the merit of Doan’s.

IndigestionY our Druggist Says Pleasant to Take,
Elixir Must Help Poor Distressed Stomachs or M oney Gladly
Refunded.You can be so distressed with gas
and fullness from poor digestion or dyspepsia that you think your heart is going to stop beating.
Your stomach may be so distended that your breathing is short and gaspy.
You are dizzy and pray for quick relief—what’s to be done.
Just one tablespoonful of Dare’s Mentha Pepsin and speedily the gas disappears, the pressing on the heart ceases and you can breathe deep and naturally.
O h! What blessed relief; but why not get rid of such attacks altogether? Why have them at all?
Especially when any druggist anywhere guarantees Dare’s Mentha Pepsin, a pleasant elixir, to help you or money back.

Cigar Store Manager Tells Big Event of LifePopular Buffalo business man says “ red-blooded, rough-
and-tumble health which T anlac gave me, was really the big event in m y life ." Qreat
booster for Tanlac nowArthur Desmon, live wire store
manager for the United Cigar Stores," lives at 59 Altruria Avenue, Buffalo,N. Y. He attributes recent big increase in business to his exuberant health, energy and good spirits, which enable him to go after trade aggressively. “ For a long time,” he said recently, “ I was so rundown and weak that when handling a rush of customers it took every ounce of will power I had to keep going. Eating was always followed by acute distress. Gas and heartburn; hot as fire; a lead-like lump in the pit of my stomach, and restless, wearying wakeful nights, ruined my health and my disposition.
“ Tanlac put the in fine fettle again, gave me a corking appetite and a smooth-running digestion. My aches and pains have all gone, I sleep like a top and have gained 10 lbs. I am in A -l condition. Thanks to the splendid health and vigor Tanlac gave me I ’ve been able to work harder, put more pep and enthusiasm into
my efforts, and build up my business. I ’m a big booster for Tanlac.”
If your health is below par, profit by Mr. Desmon’s experience. Tanlac is nature's own tonic made from herbs, roots and barks. Your druggist has it. Get your trial bottle today. Over 52 million bottles sold.
