lie at once mnkea a resolution to seethat the glossy eiat of varnish on Itssparkling sides receives the propercare so that he will save thfi expenseof frequent p«Jnttn& Jobs. Ton oftenhl» good resolutions come to frrMafter a few attempts nt washing theear In the home garage. Home gnr-ages are not always an Ideal placefor car washing. In the first place,It Is a hopeless task unless the garagehas been equipped with concrete floor,and even then unless It In consider-ably larger than Is usual, there Is solittle clearance between the garaRPwalls and the ear that the whole enrcan only be covered with considerabledifficulty- Moreover, the problem ofgetting adequate light Is troublesome.

The obvious solution of all the diffi-culties la an apron or washing plat-form built out In front of the garagewhere there Is plenty of room aswell as plenty of light Such pave-ments are not expensive and providemany other advances -besides mak-ing an Ideal place for washing anddoing minor repairs. The childrenwill soon make the clean concretepared area the center of their 'piny-ground activities and It will be foundas much nsed for hobby horse rnronand marble tournaments as for chang-ing spare tires or washing off the cur.AH danger of a back-yard mudhnle Iseliminated and the ticklish j»l> ofbacking In and out of the garage ismade easy.

Building » Platform.It Is, Of course, easier tn build snch

a platform at the time the garagefloor Is laid. But the Job can bedone satisfactorily at any time with-out much more expense. Such plat-forms are usually made not less thanten feet wide and eighteen feet long,which provides ample room to workfreely any place around the averagesized ear without moving It.

The pavement should be given aslope of about a quarter of an Inch perfoot BO that it will drain readily.The slope may be all In one directionwith a gutter at the lower side tocarry the water away, or, If desired,It may be made to slope tn from allsides to a drain In the center whichIB connected to the sewer and la pro-vided with a clean-out trap to catchthe mud and dirt which Is washed offof the car. ,

The concrete should be placed In asingle course and me ground whichIt covers should first be smoothed offevenly and. dirt'tamped firmly In anylow prices. A coforse of gravel or cin-ders should be placed over the dirt andtamped firmly Into place and the con-crete placed directly on It. The 8li-lnch tfieknoss will be found amplestrength BO that it wilt not be In-jured bg-heavy coal wagons or trucks.

It Is possible to mix the concreterapidly enough to place the entire Jol}at one time. The pavement may bqlaid all tn one piece without joints.In case, however, & mlier is not avail-able or the builder does not have the'equipment to finish a piece of con-crete of this site. It may Just ag well'

Jje placed in sections that are of a.convenient size to be filled and finished"by hand.

A five or six-foot square Is aboutthe most convenient slie for hand mix-Ing and finishing and the Job may thusbe done at odd times by the ownerhimself. The squares should be markedoff and i two-Inch plank flrmly staked

on edge on all sides of tff& square gothat the top Is Just level with the fin-ished pavement. The squares arefilled In checkerboard fashion, that IsIn alternate sections,.so that It Is pos-sible to work around on all sides ofthe square In finishing It. It is thenunnecessary to use forms for all sidesat the last squares to be placed, as theblocks help to serve a» forms.

The concrete should be mixed Idthe proportions of i>ue part portlandcement to two parts of clean sand andthree parts of crushed stone or cleansscreened pebbles. The Ingredientsshould be mixed thoroughly and nnlyenough water used to mnke a qunkyor Jelly-like mass. Too much wntortends to weaken the concrete. If mix-ing Is done by hand care should beused to see that It Is thorough, so thatall particles receive an even coatingof cement.

Surface 8hou1d B« Smooth.As soon as the concrete Is In place

It should be struck off even with thetops of the forms or side pieces byworking a straight-edged board backand forth with a algzag •motion as ItIs worked across the surface. Thesurface should then be smoothed downwith a wooden float, a long woodentrowel, which Is worked over the sur-face with a circular rubbing motion.It Is not best to use a metal troweltoo much as the finish produced bythe wooden float is more satisfactoryfor such surfaces. Only enough trow-eling should be done to produce asmooth surface.

As soon as the concrete has hard-ened It should be covered with loosedirt or sand so that It can be kpptmoist for a period of a week or tendays. The curing Is Important, as Itmakes sure that the surface Is hardand durable and If the concrete Isproperly mixed, placed and kept moistIn this manner, It will wear, like thesurface of a concrete road pavement,

A low curbing may be placed aroundthe edges If It Is thought necessary.Such a curbing will add to the ap-pearance of the Job and keep the soilfrom washing out onto the concrete.

THRILLS ON "THE MAINSTREET MESSENGER"

The life of th<> nmnll town reporterhM many thrlllK. KVH Hunt Pnekcryof th« Idaho Pally StntPHinnn of BOIMHats, as a few of the more dramatic,Interviewing Paderewakl through aknothole, being not upon bodily hy anIrate wife who mistook Mrs, Dockeryfor her husband's affinity, writing upthe first motor trip to OallforofiWhtlethe duftty gentleman gave rmt.\qRTrillsfrom a barber-shop hntti house, andhaving the police cnlled when she triedto get a picture of a murdered woman.

The woman reporter In the snml erplace,' Mrs. Dockory snys, gets achance to Interview notables whenthey come through the town. If Bhewere on a big city dally these Interviews would go to the stnr reporter*and her own progress toward the mostInteresting feature of news writingwould,thus be delayed or curtailed.Among Mrs. Dookery's choicest pos-sessions are- notes from Schumann-Helnck, Ida Tarbell, and other nota-bles. A Stiver dagger, specially In-scribed, Is a memento of what prom-ised to be an Impossible Interview withMme. Nordlca, but which eventuatedInto such a friendship that the singeralwaye sent for the writer when ahereached Boise.

Originally a trained librarian, thesecretary of the Idaho state free li-brary commission once lost her posi-tion through a change of politicalcolor at the itatehouse. Just then theStatesman was short a Society editor,hunted her op and offered her the Job.

"It was when I went to San Fran-dico and talked with the newspaperwomen there," Mrs. DockA-y writes,"that I first realised my good fortuneIn receiving training on t small-townpaner. Of course we consider ours thebiggest little newspaper In the coun-try. Anyway, the bright young news-'paper glrU I met claimed quite toenvy me my varied experience cover-Ing police and Supreme courts, hotelInterviews and celebrities—everythingat one time or another except the leg-islature. Even In the matter of fi-nances I believe the smalltown news-paper woman has the best of the ar-gument Whtle the pay Is small, liv-ing expenses are cheaper and there Isalways a chance at sidelines such aswriting ads for stores which cannotpay a regular ad writer, doing pub-licity for campaigns, etc."

Way* for Using Hammer *in Making Car Repairs

Care In the use of the machinist'shammer, which forms a part of thetool equipment of every automobile, Isone of the first things the amateur au-tomQblle repairman must learn whenworking around the engine, says awriter In the American Motorist. Withthis hammer he can do more damagein a moment than a good man can re-pair tn a week. His first InclinationIs to use this form of persuasion onany and every refractory part, andthis Is a desire which should be over-come.

Not only should the hammer Itselfnot be used on any metal parts with-out the Intervention of a block ofwood to protect the surface, but caremust be eierclxetj to avoid hitting theother parts through the inaccuracy ofaim that distinguishes the unskilledwielder of this tool.

A poorly-aimed blow that misses Itstarget and lands oh one of the valvepush rods or slnillurly vulnerable partswith any degree of force Is apt tocause trouble of an expensive nature.

It Is a good thing for the noviee tobe sparing In the use of his hammeras a cure-all. Do not resort to It un-necessarily, and do not use a sledgehammer blow where a light tap willdo the work.

THE LIGHTING CONTEST.For year* it has been a common remark in Rahway, espe-

cially in'srhoul circles that "the Carteret kids grab all thehonors in high school," meaning that the Carteret boys andtMi attending Rahway high school usually had such high marksthat they were entitled to the honors that go with graduationexercises.

Now comes another example of "Carteret Kids" grabbinghonors and a whole lot of honors, at that. In the home lightingessay writing contest the school children of Perth Amboy,Woodbridge and Carteret, were grouped into one district orclass to compete for prizes.

Under the terms of the contest, forty-one prizes were as-signed to be divided among the winners in the district Of theforty-one prizes, Carteret pupils took thirty-five. Of the re-maining six prizes, five were won by Perth Amboy pupils andone by a Woodbridge girl who attends school at Piscataway.

The mission of all education is to teach the individual tothink in order that he may be able to take cafe of himself.Writing an essay is perhaps the severest test of that thinkingability in young people. The fact that the schools oftCarteretgive a type of education that enables the pupils to walk away)with, practically the whole allotment of prizes in a competitionwith the schools of a big city and a big township speaks volumesfor the administration of the borough schools. Our schools arennd always have been an institution of which Carteret may wellHproud. -. -j

NOE'S CREEK.During the campaign last fall both parties made it a part

vt their respective platforms that, if elected, something would|>e done to eliminate the Noe's Creek nuisance, All parties recegnized the need of improvement there. The creek is a nuisauce, a menace to health and a block to the growth of theborough. So long as the creek is an onen sewer there will befil fact, two distinct communities in the borough with a corre-sponding; weakness of community spirit.

Just now a section of property along the most objectionable. nortion of the creek is being redeemed by filling \n with cinders.

The work is being done by the owner, Maxwell Sosin, an attor-ney. It is good work for the borough while it will make theproperty worth something to the owner.

The borough ought to get busy with the cleaning up andjeering of the creek. "Nothing else "would do so much for thegeneral benefit of the town.

RUDE AWAKENING FOR RAHWAY.(Editorial from Perth Amboy Evening News Jan. 3, 1925.V

"It didn't take Rahway long to realize that politics areonce more the dominating factor in the handling of municipalaffairs. Rahway was one of the municipalities in the State thatadopted the commission form of government. One of the com-missioners, however, was a rabid Socialist and he was cleverenough to work himself into the position of mayor where hewielded considerable influence. Because municipal affairs un-der his administration were not handled as many of the peoplethought they ought to be handled, a movement was started to-go back to the old form of government as the.best means ofjetting rid of the Socialist mayor. In other words, Rahwayproposed to burn down the barn to get rid of the rats. Theelection was held last fall and largely because of the unpopu-larity of the Socialist mayor the majority voted to abandon thecommission form of government and return to the old system

•'t|| of government with a mayor and common council."The change took place January 1, arid at the firs session

•f the new council a political row occurred. The Mayor, a• Democrat, is at loggerheads with the^ouncil. The council re-

ttpni to confirm the appointments oC the mayor, and the mayorleft the meeting in a huff .declaring the councilmen were acting

|-Mice a lot of boobs. The mayor refuses to name anybody elseft>rthe offices he has to appoint, and he defies his opponents byasking the councilmen how the city is going to be run withoutthese officials. It is a pretty scrap as political scraps go, and

•what might be called an auspicious beginning for the oldform of government. i

-. ft "Perhaps th epeople, of Rahway will realize before the yea#l | ; •* over that they made a mistake. It will occur to them after it

H- •» too late that it was not the commission form of governmenttiat was at fault when they were raving against their former(jtyoT, but it was the dominating personality of one man whoid been elected ,a commissioner. If that man was so unpopu-|t>,as to cause the overthrow of the entire form of government,jlrely it ought to have been an easy matter to defeat him. if

came up for re-election,,'Tor Heven years Kahway has put aside the old form of

grnment in favor of the commission. During that time the'politics, and partisan fights over the "spoils" were forgot-or, at ,least, the memory was dulled. Bu4 there has been

i awakening. Rahway is back t(Ahe old "form of %overn*|t with its mayor and common council, and politics take con-

the very first day. • "*• *<J©mmi8aion government may not be all that is sometimes

1 for it, but, taken all in all, it is a decided improvementform in which everything gives way to politics."

: above is a word-for-word copy of a very excellent andSrial in the Perth Amboy Evening News, the' only

Extraordinary business in advanceorders is reported by Jefferson Mo-tors, Middlesex County's agency forthe Chevrolet car located in NewBrunswick avenue, Perth Amboy. Allthese advance orders and numberlessinquiries relate to the new models.Since January S when news of thenewtype Chevrolet was made public,he Jefferson Motors Company has re-eived tRirty-seven orders. Deliveries

ll begin as soon as possible.At present only the chassis of the

ew car is on exhibition at the salesoom of the company. The wheellase is longer by several inches *haniny former model Chevrolet. Thiseature alone insures greater com-ort and less vibration. But aside

from the larger wheel base and gen-ral strengthening of all parts of theihassls and engine,, there are severalither notable improvements. The'ear is a new and much stronger type.nan in former models.

The bodies, too, are greatly im-proved, the lines being racy and at-tractive. The finish in Duco insuresasting quality of exterior. The in-terior is the very latest in style andcomfort.

CHILD LABOR LAWS.On June 2,1924, Congress passed a child labor amendment

to the Constitution of the United States, and if it will b&ratifiddby 36 States—the legislatures thereof—it willbecome the twen-tieth amendment to the federal Constitution.

The amendment provides that "Congress shall have poweto limit, regulate and prohibit the labor of persons undeeighteen years of age, etc."

Very many individuals misinterpreted this amendment, be-lieving that it means that that children under eighteen yearsof age shall not be employed. Were that so, then the amend-ment surely would deserve defeat, for many children, whenthey reach their teens—young men and young women, so tospeak—show no inclination for study and have, in (fact, nocapacity for more than elementary knowledge. To preventsuch from working would mean to drive them into idleness andmischief. •;

The amendment, however, provides only for power "tolimit, regulate and prohibit" the labor of persons under eigh-teen. But Congress, by this {amendment, is granted the power—and if sixteen were substituted for eighteen, chances are littleopposition would be encountered. As the matter now stands,the manufacturers and the farmers are opposed to the amend-ment, and it will have rough sailing. In January thirty-eightlegislatures will meet, but it is a very good guess that it will notbe possible 36 of them will ratify the amendment.

One hundred million dollars a year is the estimated losscaused by traffic congestion in New York. It is said that whena truck is idle in a traffic jam the owner loses six centa a minutein the form of unproductive investment. How much is the losswhen the human being is idle a minute, an hour, a day, a week,a month? Human energy should be worth as much as mechan-ical energy, and at six cents a minute,, what is the average per-son's daily loss, due to congested idleness?

THE DRUG EVIL.The United States must accept the responsibility of bring-

ing the consumption of drugs under control. A habit far moredangerous than any other is that of using opium, and Americafaces the dire circumstances of leading the world OH a per per-son ratio i)f opium consumption, fhis ig a horrible condition.It is easily a most'important problem that presents itself forHolution.

For every one grain of opium an Italian uses, for instance,the average American uses 36 grains. Other comparisons are:India, 27; France, 4; England, 8; Germany, 2.

Nurmi It Greatestof Runnert

IN LINE WITH THE SPORTSMENFolkB who wondered how Knute Riickne was able to keep

his remarkable Notre Dame football team on edge through oneof the hardest schedules a teamihas ejer attempted, get theiranswer in the news item that Jim Crowley, fullback, suffered anervous breakdown and had to be taken to the hospital in SanFrancisco after starring in his team's victory over Stanford.

Many colleges believe in and abide by the theory that afootball team can be at its best in only one or two games of theschedule. For that reason schedules are so laid out that thehard games are taken on late in the season, coaches and trainersexercising every precaution to prevent the players from reach-ing the "edge" too early. The idea is, of cfturse, that once theathlete arrives at the peak of perfection he can remain therebut a short time. Thereafter the reaction set in, mentally per-haps more than physically, and the team loses effectiveness.

Midget Teams In Play; <St. Joseph's Boys Win

That experience is of more advan-tage to a basketball player than size,was shown when the St. Joe Midgets'swamped the Carteret Midget re-cruits in the game, at the Churchcourt, by a 39 to 19 score.

The church midgets have been go-ing along pretty strong, and are form-ing a nice record for themselves.

The Harmony bowlers succeeded ingrabbing the three games, each beingdecided by slight margins.

This was,you see, their second day In the coun-try—it bad gone to tlTelr heads, set-ting up primal riots In their starredsouls. Besides, the strawberries wereso tempting—blushing ripe scarlet upthrough their green leave* there In themorning sunshine.

"It—It won't hurt to smell theheavenly things!" Ruth cried softly,laying her face on the soft greenleaves with an ecstatic Inhalation."It would be wicked to leave this—It's simply crying to be eaten."tfannj hung back, popping a big redoval Into her mouth, with a gaspof delight over the taste of It.

Pop grinned happily, mulled aroundamong the rioters, torted out thesplay-footed and doomed them toshed work, made the old shoestring,his wife, give place to the professorof mathemntlcs as tally keeper, andsaid Impressively, to Wilson: "Say,Lnther, them two volunteers Is got tobe kept on—they come to my helpwhen It seemed like help thar wasn'tnone."

The story joes back to a day in1022, when the soft-spoken butler Inthe Sliattnc* home on Washingtonsquare, New Tort, turned with a snarlupon his employers, and blew sharplyon a whistle.

The gardener and one of the kitchenboys dropp>ed their masks of servilityand became snarling bandits, like theirchief. Three other apaches, waitingoutside, were admitted. Revolvers andugly knives were whipped out.

—the truck laden with crates, the pick-ers straggling joyously homeward withmoney In both pockets. A fleet offlivvers had come for them, mostlyfrojn their homes, But Ruth andFaany were laggards. Wilson hadnot spoken to them as though theywere other than strangers, and theydid not wish to thrust themselves uponhis consciousness. After a long restthey would go as they had come, afoot,enjoying all the wonders of the coun-tryside. Only three uillea to GrandmaWare's small, tidy place.

The lust flivver had gone. Pop andthe old shoestring were at home, quar-reling with ttielr enlarged family,Slghlug, the girls rose up—but stoppeddead at what confronted them,liter Wilson, as isunlturned, as berry-stained as themselves, but with thecourtliest air In the. world, smiling andnaylng: "I'm BO glad you/ could waitfor me—my car Is here—where shalIt take you?"

"Heaven, if you please," Buth said,yuwnlng. He sullied at her, saying"1 fouad that rlgtit here. Since werau't stay, let's go-and take It withu»." To which ii'unny voucbaafedhearty amen.

From that day, Shattuck swore ven-geance upon Mourey. He did not talkof It much, but private detectiveagencies learned quietly that therewas no limit to the reward It theycould trap the apache.

Mourey was heard of first In thiscountry, then In that, hunted day andnight, hut always eluding pursuit.

This time, in-stead of making of its "hero" a blith-ering idiot who drools philosopicalepigrams which far from fit his ac-tions,-this time the character aroundwhich the plot is woven is a good dealmore realistic than in at least half ahundred recent playa of this generaldesign.

The only trouble with David Mil-grim, old beloved Jewish doll maker,is the fact that be has an almostinsanely Anne Nichol's toleration forthe Irish. Louia Mann, who portrayBthe old fellow, has an accent thatcould hardly be guilty of allowing itsowner to put. his arm around thebulky Irish shoulders of an ex-neigh-bor in comradely blessing. Outsideof that, which, perhaps, isn't such aserious fault, anyway, the author hasdone a good job with the character.

With the play there may be severaltechnical points unobserved, but thecast is top-notch nnd that means thatthe most possible worth is extractedfrom the scrip and, as there is con-siderable of value in it, that means awhole lot.

At the Ditmas, "'Thief of Bagdad"

Douglas Fairbanks in "The Thiefof Bagdad," a fantasy of the screen,generally accepted as being the pin-nacle of moving picture accomplish-ment, is now on view at the Ditmas,Perth Amboy. Douglas Fairbanks'great success has been owing, in greatp r t , to the fact that, to'begin with,he had a great romantic story, andthat in the picturing of it he did notallow the mere seeking after spec-tacle and the like, to interfere withits development. The story has beenthe main thing always. "The Thiefof Bagdad," one might imagine, con-sidering the enormous amount of talkthat has been created by certain feat-ures in this picture—such, for in-stance, as The Magic Carpet, withwhich the Thief and the Princess soarover the housetops and into the sky;the Winged Horse, which flies throughthe clouds—that it was a mere string-ing together of extraordinary happen-ings. In point of fact, "The Thiefof Bagdad," a realization of ArabianNight stories, is a continuously con-nected tale. The Winged Horse andthe Magic Carpet are not mere tricksto excite theatregoers; they are in-deed necessary developments of thestory.

Let us call In Margie," said Mrs.Amos, "and find out right-now how farthis thing has gone."

Margaret was called In. She ac-knowledged at once that she was Inlove with Tom Mowray and was goingto nmrr> him, If he should ever askher, and she rather thought he would.Margie was surprised. Heretofore herwill had been law to her father andmother. What did they mean by thisundutlful conduct?

But the rebellious parents carriedthe day. Tom was discharged thenest morning nnd Margaret packed oftto visit a great-aunt In Oswego. Amoswas recounting to one of his businessassociates this little family Incident

"Tom Mowray 1" cried Slater, thobuatness associate aforesaid. "Why,tre you sure he Is not a son of OldTom Mowrny? OW ffom had s Bonwho went In for art, and his name wasthe same as his father's."

Old Tom received him coldly, mere-ly bowed and waited for his visitor totpeak, glancing from time to time atthe card which Amos had sent In.Amos was a little disconcerted; butbusiness was business.
