EX-SERVICE I MEN APPLICANTS PLANS FOR LAST DRIVE. AS , TIME EXPIRES ON NOVEMBER 3<TTH. That New Jersey took an active part in the world war is indicated by the fact that 98,557 applications have been received By the State Soldiers' Bonus Commission and passed by the claims division for final checking and ( of this number over 5,000 passed ; thru the hands of Robert Fithian, of j Bridgeton, -field agent for the Com- -i mission for this Congressional d)is- s trict. ! In addition to tWe large number of ' applications which went through the < of-the field agents 6,500 were^ i mailed to Trenton direct but the Com i mission handled first those forward- i ed by field agents, according to the - approved, previously announced planMr. Fithian attended the meeting v recently held in Trenton by the-Com-1 mission and the field agents to survey the present status of the work i and to make plans for the final drive ending .November 30. This is the last date on which application will he received and . has not heen arranged by , the Commission except it follows out j the provision of the law which set the j final "date as a year from the-certifi- j cation, which happened to be on No- j vember 30 last. The applications in]' process of settlement at that time j : will be completed* but no new appli- 1 cfttfons will be received after Novem- ] , I ber 30. . As 'the. work developed it was! -found that inaccuracies made neces. j sary a close check on the huge vol- ,( umeof applications and the claims' of i j dependents were frequently so inI volved as to require a great deal of ■ ' work. ' Checks are now being sent out at . I the rate of about 1,500 a month and ■ j this number will be gradually inI creased- Each application takes the r usual course and it is useless to I write to the Commission or the agent ■ in regard to any particular one as it , ' I would mean a hold-up in the work if | » J Investigations were made or a man l ! assigned to answer lettersI Some. in close touch with the work j I of the Commission say it has been j * ' handled remarkably well for a prop- r 3 osition of such large proportions. j 1 CAPfe MAY CO.

There will be a meeting of the Women's Republican Club at its • headquarters on Washington Streqt, ! next Tuesday cvenipg, Sept. 20, 1921, ; at 8 P. M. Ali- members are cor- , dially invited^o be presentOrder the President, Mrs. H. Sh-^Iutherford.

The Women's Republican Oub of this citj invited Senator Brifht I to apeak before Chem on Tnoaday evening and will doubtless give As- I semWyman Boawell his opportunity, also. A Republican Clob cannot consistently favwr one candidate above another before the primaries- If it doea H beeomeaanot a Republican Club but a candidate's dub. Also Senator Bright would have some difficulty, we surmise, in establishing his right, at this time, to be considered a Republican. We have been informed by some of the ladies who were present at the meeting that he devoted a lot of attention to the "Star and Wave" and alleged that it'waa "knocking" him. He produced, also, a dipping alleged to have been taken from an issue of the "Star and Wave" some months back in which he was credited with assisting -the ferry project. There may have been audi an article, though we have not found it, but there are a number of the ladies here - and j elsewhere who were captivated by his representations during the ' congressional fight last year, who have sihee disdtvered that they were not in accord with' actualities and therefore, have ceased being 1 captivated with the gentleman or charmed with his'iraany claims. The ladies are beginning to become acquainted with Mr. Bright. \ -His name is becoming quite familiar. They have seen it on every bail kM that has been printed since the passage of - the suffrage amendment. If he made £he accusation that the "Star and Wave" .has been "knocking" him, he is in wrong again, for his name hasMR been mentioned in these column , so far as we recall it, in any dis- J cuasion of political matters which has been recently made. He has made his own interpretations and seems to have concluded that some . of our comments fit his case. If the shoe fits him we cannot hinder kis wearing it. If the legal voters, men and women, recognize a description as fitting him, it is pretty good evidence that it is one which agrees with their own knowledge. In reference to the Cape May to Lewes Ferry provided for by a law passed last winter, the voters of the county will note that there is no doubt at all about where Assemblyman Boswell stood. '41 e was its sponsor and he put it through. Everybody, therefore, absolutely knows about his agency in the matter. He was the faithful and tried friend of progress and has nothing to explain- It is all indelibly in I the record. Also he need make no explanation on th liquor question. He has done no shifting here, from one side to the other. He , has stood up valiantly at all times on the dry side. He has never been a wet and therefore does not need to explain (with tears in his | eyes) to'the, ladies or to the men thai he is now a changed man.

KHSMU TMJCS TO HUfflSCROOL FAMOUS U- OF P. FOOTBALL COACH ADDRESSES PUPIPLS ON THE VALUB OF ATHLETICS IN "AFTER LIFE" Coach John Heiaman of the University of Pennsylvania football team addressed the pupHs of the High School of this city on Wednesday afternoon, on athletics, as applied to after life. , He said in part that the training on the field of sport ttught (me to think quickly and correctly, on the Spur of the moment, and that - oft times although one felt like giving his opponent a good thrashing that it was not the best thing to do.
