Public opinion has not had to make up its mind in the dark. Wholly apart from the result, the campaign of 1913 marks a brave step upward in the political progress of the city. Corruption no longer dares to be brazen as of old. It no longer turns a swaggering shoulder and drops a contemptuous “What are you going to do about it?” shift to be civil, to masquerade in On the contrary it lias made desperate the garb of purity—the only hope it has left with an enlightened public.

HE wail of the Jersey City school janitors for higher pay be- cause their feather dusters have been taken away from them is eloquent testimony to the true nature and insidious worth- leseness of the feather duster and should be used as a moral by all mothers trying to bring up their daughters to be housekeepers. The plain truth about the feather duster is and always has been that it is a labor saver in the worst sense. It saves doing work that eught to be done. Flirting a feather duster about a room never yet accomplished anything more than to give the microbes on the mantel- piece a chance to float over for a morning’s visit to the centre table and probably gain strength by the outing. Whether he gets his extra money or not, a janitor wiping dili- gently about with his cheesecloth and dutifully shaking it now and then out of the window will be a noble object lesson for the young. Wo school should be without one. oo ee Come, breathe awhile—and then to investigation!
