PERIPATETICS FROM

THE PERAMBULATOR Strange how some rich people have the poorest sidewalks. But then tinrich ride in automobiles so let the poor Wade through the mud. The Lord smiles upon this old roast resort. That's alright. Such an asset | docs not increase the floating indebted- j -Bess and everybody can get his share. But boardwalks and new streets and band music cost money and some people forget to smile when they have to pay their share. A preacher was heard to say that the Very wAther that prevents his church ' members from attending a nice warm Church fills up a cold garage for a basket ball game or a colder hall for a minstrel •how. Forget your grouch, old Sky-pilot. Give your people what they want. Have R short preliminary, then the first half Of a basket ball game. Have the choir [ sing a rag-time anthem, then put on the ' •econd act of "Who Stole Paddy's Goat »" 1 This win insure a full turn out of the members and others. For where the ' heart is there will the attendance be. A driver told his team to "Gid ep'" and they "Gad ep' " The Five Mile Beach Sun says: 1 To one who will stop to analyze the ' figures adductcd by Commissioner Calvin < N.

ing. although by no means common to Jersey. This is that the fifteen milliun dollars being spent annually on public •chools in the State is doing only fourfifths of the work it is capable of performing, owing to truancy and absenteeism.. Losing the effectiveness of twenty cents on the dollar would bankrupt any private corporation in short order. That through the negligence of parents and guaruians or laxity of officials in enforcing the compulsory attcn- | dance law this opportunity should be lost | to New Jersey makes insistent far more j energetic action in that particular dur- j ing the present school year, even though j our standing in this respect as compared • with other States is high." TONY BENNETT FALLS ON ICE j Captain "Tony" Bennett had the misfortune on Monday evening last, during the heavy wind, while on his way home, in turning the corner of Washington Street and Madison Avenue, to fall on the icy "pavement And injure one of his limbs quite severely, which neceasidated his laying by for some time. Captain Tony has been bothered for several weeks past with a troublesome boil, and when he thought that he was getting •long all right, this last misfortune overtook him. We hope his fall on the ice will not prove of a serious character. MEN'S CLASS TOURING PARTY. The Men's Club Class of the First Baptist Sunday School went on a Tour- j ing Party at the Parsonage on Thursday night. The evening entertainment | was arranged by the pastor who teaches i the elass. There were three tables of Touring, the new automobile game and after the men got acquainted with the - rules of the game they had a great time. There were collisions, automobiles got How's This ?
