" REPUBLICANS com; srnoxo.
Indications up to noon were that
' the local Republican ticket would be
ilsvvept into office in the city elec-
L tlon today.
There seems little doubt about the
result in the Mayoralty race. Mayor
vRobins. from all reports. will be re-
turned to office with a comfortable
lead and will take with him a Re-
publican Council.
Most interest centers in the con-
.test for the office of Tax Collector
Robert G. Mitchell. Democrat. who
has held the office for 16 years, dc-
: spite valiant efforts on the part of
his friends. is not bringing out the
vote in his own behalf which he has
in previous years.
Republicans everywhere are held-
ing fast to party lines and refusing
to split for Mitchell. It was the Re-
publican vote frequently in past elec-
' tlons which returned him to office.
From the general Democratic
comment. it would seem, that the
Democrats believe The E\'enlng Sen.
final is running against Mitchell for
office. and not Lawrence Paul, an
up-to-date and conscientious young
business man. '
This newspaper haul the terrible
ci‘frontcry. so the Democrats say. to
. suggest to the voters of this city that
‘ ._they vote for Lawrence Paul for Tax
,Coliector. hence a meaningless at-
. tack On us by our uptown contem-
pQral‘y.
‘ It was presumed by the Demo-
“ crate. that Mitchell having held the
office for 16 years. it was his for life.
no matter what were his methods of
conducting its affairs.
This is an opinion which the vet-
ers of this city do not share.
The vote for Lawrence Paul is re-
ported to he cgttremely heavy in all
sections.
’ The present campaign Was late in
getting started——but last minute
activity on both sides is bringing
out a heavy vote, despite the rain
‘,this morning.

The thrill of a huge crowd!
' It was thrill that caused ancient
Romans to build their big collseum
and to jam it full of people for ev-
‘ very public event.
The world today is far. less.bar-
barons than the Romans. but there's
' hardly an American who doesn't
get a. thrill out of a big crowd as-
' sem‘bled for some big sporting event.
The real thrill one gets out of
watching the world series baseball
games is not in the play, which of-
ten is ordinary, but in the crowd it-
helf.
V'There'smnothing else ill the world
‘quile like the great howl of cheers.

from the crowd when a hit scores

there are "too many girls in col-

To be surei The. same might be
said of college boys. There are too
many of them in college who have
no deep-rooted respect for learning.
and who- might get more education
by going to work.
The only error these complainants
make is to assume that this situa-
tion is new.
In quantity. or course. it is. There
were never so many college students

But don't imagine that in the
days when students were fewer they
were all of the studious class.

him of conditions of a still earlier

There were careless students. stu-
pid students, useless students. booz-

looked down on the earnest stu.

In fact, there was more drinking,
more immorality. and more snob-
bishncss in the colleges of the. last
generation than there is in the uni-
versities of today.

The reason for this anomalous
situation is that the Shipping Board
was originally intended to be a

Interstate Commerce Commission,
and was naturally made indepen-

How To Keep Well
By DR. HUGH S. CUMMING
Surgeon General, United States Public Health Service
Meat which you use on your table
passes through three changes before
it becomes unfit for use. Freshly
killed meat is usually tender and di-
gesilble. Alnlostlmmedlaiely. how-
ever. meat begins to change.
'it gradually toughcns until it
reaches nature where it is too tough
to chew. This is followed by anoth.
el- stage which is in reality the be-
ginning of those changes which later
we describe as putrefaclion.
It would be better if we could ai-
wsys get our meat immediately after
it is killed, bllt in the presentnsiage
of our development this is impossi-
hie. This forces us to resort to re-
frigeration and cold storage.
more carefully these processes are
carried out. .the safer our meats are
for food.
Nor must we forget that the ulti-
mate consumer shoui'd cook h’is meat
as soon as possible after purchase.
In hot weather, lhe ice box in the
average home. while a most valua-
hle and perhaps indispensable house-
hold article. is not kept cold enough
to keep food. especially meats and
but a very shot time.
Fish Spoils
More Rapidly
Fish spoils than
more rapidly
kept very cold. not merely cool. it
may bécome unfit for consumption
if possible. fish should be frozen.
If it is not possible to keep fish froz—
en, the nearer it is brought to a
freezing temperature the better.
Unfortunately fish are not always
properly cared for on their way
from the smlrcc‘ of supply to the
consumer. If you live in inland
towns you should know lilo history
of the flesh with which you are serv-
ed.
The Last Frontier
Meet the cllachalaca. He's the
newest U. s. citizen. He was
brought into the United States from
Mexico.
The Bureau of Biological Survey
of the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture brought him into the country.
The chachalaca is a game bird. a
near relative of the pheasants.
Two years ago the bureau intro-
duced a number of the birds into
Sapeloe Island. Georgia. Recent in-
vestigation shows that the birds are
thriving. Severaidozen nested on
the island this year. and a colony
has spread to ,the neighboring
Blackbeard island.
The chachaiaca’ls a slender-bod-
ied game bird. olive brown in color.
They weigh about as mdch as a
ruffeo grouse.
The flesh of the bird is said to be
delicious and officials of the Biolog-
ical Survey expect that in time the
cbachaiaca will make a; valuable ad-
dition to the game bird list of the
wooded sections of the southeastern
part of the United States.
The bird nests in trees and spends
much time there. although he feeds
upon the ground. He has a loud.
rattling call which can be heard
over a great distance until which is
easily remembered once heard.

WASHINGTON Oct. 5.—-Congress
will consider the advisability of hav-
lug the nation finger-printed.
Police Commissioner Enright of
New 'i’ork proposes it. He wants the
government put in charge of the
Job and would have the prints kept
on file by a national. police bureau
ill Washington.
It would be an easy way. he says,
of enabling the authorities to keep
tab on the citizenry. sometimes to
its advantage and sometimes other-
wise. depending on how it behaves
itself.
Such a system already exists in
Argentina. where it works well.

NEW N'ORK, Oct. I.-—-'.l‘hn cum—
edy of life in New Yorivschangcs
with the seasons.
Somehow we can all laugh at the
man who chases his )lat down the
traffic-jammed thoroughfare on a
warm July day. We watch the out-
come of his chase. with high amuse-
ment. knowing fllll well that his
chances of saving the straw beanie
are one in a thousand. And. sure
enough. "Crunch!" and another
joins the thousands of broken
straws that fill the streets.
And we howl with glee as the
wind blows inside out the. thousands
of cheap umbrellas picked ‘up from
corner vendors during an unexpec-
ted rain. and the streets grow clut-
tered with parasol skeletons.»
We can smile even at the fat man
who is a veritable Niagara of per-
spiration in the subway. ’
But there is nothing funny about
a pinched face behind an all too
meager wrap.
(rule is the season when the com-
edy of New York changes even as
the leaves.
The loungers in the parks and
upon the Library steps are thinning
out. And those that gather now sit
there. not for mere recreation, but
because there is no place else to go.
The crowds that group about the
employment agencies weer more an-
xlous faces. ,
Down on tile East Side, where the
pushcart peddlers defy wind and
storm. 'like veteran mariners. they
now begin to break packing boxes
into kindling and build hon ea in
the center of the street. gazering
around to stamp feet and clap hands
and adjust mufflers.
0n the side street appear chil—
dren with little certs. picking
shavings and bits of wood.
There is little to smile at and less
to laugh lit—for the comedy of life
in New York changes with the sea-
HORN.
