WRONG THOUGHT The Gazette's interpretation of an 1 article from one of the contributors to , our commits who is _de*cnbed _ as a , "Mad Temperance V._ Rshed in our issue of November 4th, is entirely erroneous. The paragraph criticised is the loi ,OWi^ffenders should be made to stop the sale of the ooison.

in the game and a few _ deaths n( don't matter even it it «j «>nie n American mother s boy, and some- tl times a giri." -The The Gazette's comment is that ine jt) above is capable of but one interprets, |b tion And that is that Judge ! ^drejlg a is playing politics from the benchand, no amount of twisting can make it (] read otherwise." , . , ..Id No "twisting" will be required to jr make it read very much otherwise. s It can be easily shown in plain un- L twisted United States language. It is |y the Gazette which is <ioing the twist- ( f ma" and whether intending to do so f or not, has committed a most un- s friendly act to Judge EWredge m sug- , ■ jesting the possibility that the ■ eriti- , asm of our contributor could apply J- i Judge Eld red ee When anybody on toe , county, who has followed his career. , knows that it could not be made to fit , him by any amount of twisting- . The editor and proprietor of this , paper and the so-calied Mad Temper , ance Reformer" are both as strong admirers of the manner in Eld red ee has performed his duties a, i Judge of the Court of ' of this county as is Brother j. any other mau ox woman [n the coun ty and neither would eounten^ce anv insinuation or attack upon him, much less be guilf of making ft. Judge El dredge knows this verv well- V . Cooper has wasted considerable heat over nothing and this is reprenensible in these days of coal shortage. If there were but one Jud<re on the Bench" and but one Benoh. and Judge Eldredvc were the one judge and the bench of the Court of ^Com man Pleas of this county, the one of this county . «>= t

bench it might beposs.biefoiM en, fc tJmsiastic friend of Judre Eldrtag^to « the expression The Judge on d the Bench" as it appears in the article j criticsed. to Judge Eldred"* him alone. Si nee there are I "Judges," Federal, State and County. , and many "benches " however, the ; map-; who insists that but one Jwjge < is referred to has evidently lost hi . 1 head" and Jumped to a conclusion al- \ together unwarrant«<l. If we na <• , the correct information none ©I to , bootleg cases have been before ju«P _ E!dre<lge, so that he was entirely <ur.. of range of the alleged "attack and never in the thought of the writer of the article for a moment in this connection. In fact ♦hero is no Peroona! , allusion to anv (individual mane or in \ tended and this is perfectly evident. this is Denectiy e« 0

The line would have been better un- s derstood, perhaps if it had read: If t the Judge on the Bench before whom 1 they are -tried and convicted, would t send some of these undesirable birds £ un for long term, etc." 1 1 We are somewhat surprised that ij Editor Cooper should make use of the i expression "Mad Temperance Reform- ,( er." applying it to the writer of the , article which has displeased him. A • moment's consideration will convince him that it is entirely out of '[ate. The , passage and ratification of the Eigh- , teenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States established once and for all the "reform" so that the so-called "temoerance reformers are now merelv loyal American citizens, who desire to support the Constitution of the United States and the enforce»ment of the laws for the suppression . of an illegal and altogether iniquitous. of illegal ana anogewn;!

traffic, which is fermenting evil of V every kind and threatening the sta- C; bilitv of the nation. It is high time p that all people shall become mad , senough to insist upon the enforcement of the law and the drastic punishment | of all who violate it We owe this to | the rising generation and to genera- -t tions which are to follow ° If Brother Cooper were residing ,1 here he would .be as mu«h infected as c anvbody else with this land of "mad- r I ness." , . . ' Our contributor pleads ior punish- i meats sufficiently drastic to be effec- < tive in stopping the violation of the i >. law. He is in line with the thought 1 of all good citizens on this proposi- 1 It is scarcely justifiable in New Jersey to denythat "Politics is allowed to nlay too strong a part in the game." when we have a governor who i went into office about three years ago under a pledge to make New Jersev as "Wet as the Atlantic Ocean." and has sec" red election to the United HP States Senate on a similar platform. The suggestion "that politics is allowed to Slav too strong a part in the ~ame" does not necessarily imoly that anv of the Judges are at fault. The I congress or legislature may be playing K the politics in failing to provide the necessary vigor in the enforcement! L' laws.

I AFTER THE ELECTION— WHAT? I The following is offered by a write r I who is a frequent and valued a® « Itributor to the columns of tiiebtar « LI 'Wave, and is published for theco^ p aide ration of our readers. We beg to C suggest, however, that the pronounce- p ment of 67 physicians in this State does not bind the whole profession and v is not by any means ^'usive upon c the ■ point at issue. It is altogether t POOD FOR THOUGHT and an »m- v ' portant topic for discussion and perhaps some of out readers may desire ■ to publish their views upon the same t IU |iUUIIS(> — "

It must be remembered, also, that • the liquor question was not the only one before the people at the recent lection, and there were a number of : counties in which Edwards received no majorities.

VITAL FACTS ABOUT CANCER | L iuring the Great War the United States lost about 80,000 *«WiwsDuring the same two years 180,000 people died of cancer m this country . is now killing one of every persons ove- forty year* of age2- Manv of these deaths are orev«M»ble, once =»« curable, if recognized and properly treated in its early stages. 3. Cancer begins as a email local . growth which can be often *?" moved by competent surgjia^ treatm„, nr certain external forms, by S' radium, X-ray or other methods. 4.

Picking j and irritating such sores, cracks, ul- , cerations, etc., or treating these skin i conditions > - home remedies, pastes, | poultices, caustics, etc., is playing with fire- Warty growths, moles, or 1 1 : other birthmarks, especially those i • subject to constant -ritation. should j ; be attended to immediately if they , ■ . change in color or appearance, or i • start to grow. Avoidance of chronic - r irritation and removal of just such ; l j seemingly insignificant danger spots i j may prevent cancer. . 11. Persistent indigestion in mide ' die life, with loss of weight anil 1 i change of color, or with pain, vomitf ' ing, or diarrhoea, call for thorough diand competent medical advice as to. etthe -ossibility of internal cancer. r ; 12.

must not be thought of as a cure-all for every form of cancer. No medicine will cure cancer. Doctors and institutes which advertise 'cures without the kkmfe" play upon the patient s fear of operation to a way that leads often to the loss of precious time, and fatal delay in -seeking competent treatment. Go first to your family physician. . - 13. Open warfare open discussion will mean the prevention of manyneedless deaths from cancer. The . common belief that cancer is a hopeless malady is partly due to the lact ; that cases of successful treatment are . frequently concealed by the ^ patient ■ and his family, while cases of failure i (too often resulting from delay) are - apt to become common knowledge. 14.
