BILL to’prevent the Board of Health from interfering with Governor, This measure, known as the Simpson Bill, amends the Public Service Commission {aw so as to vest the power to regulate the num- ber of passengers to be carried in etreet cars solely with the Public “pothing contained in the public health law or in any other statute, either general or local, shall hereafter be construed | to authorize any local board or department of health or other local authorities of a city to make or enforce ordinances, rules, regulations, or orders limiting or reguisting the num- ‘ ber of passengers to be carried upon any euch car or cars.” A more chameless, brazen attempt to make it impossible for any- bedy else to do for the public what the Public Service Commission has never chosen to do, it would be difficult to conceive. Last year the Board of Health, noting that the overcrowding of street cars continued to be not only insufferable as regards comfort: but @ constant cause of disease, issued orders to certain city railway lines to regulate the carrying of passengers on ell surface cars to that “the total number of peesengere on any euch car, at any time, shall not exceed ene and one-half times the seating capacity ef the car.” The Board’s power to ect for the elimination of conditions dan- gerous to life and health is undoubted and hes been repeatedly con- firmed by the courts. Its action in this instance gave the public its! firet promise of relief from the intolerable overcrowding of otreet care.

Tuesday: May 16; 1916 Reflections of A Bachelor Girl By Helen Rowland Coperight, 1916, by The Prew Publishing Co, (The New York Evening World). HERE seem to be just twe ctasses of men in the world: the kind who “can’t marry,” and the kind who can’t stop marrying. A man’s heart is always being torn between two women—one who is @ habit, and one who is a novelty; one who is leading him around by the Due, and one who is banging onto hia coattails? j Tf @ husband should treat his wife as politely as he does a perfect | stranger, she would probably have a queer feeling that ehe ought to have a oot about. | When you eee the kind of men eome girls marry you wonder whether | they have been reading burnt-orange novels, or just hate to work for & | ving. | The first conjugal lie springs from the wife's “What-excuse-haveyour | got?” attitude, and the husband's “What-excuse-do-you-want?” attitade. Usualiy the only way to kiss a girl effectively is to take her so by sure prise that she hasn't energy enough left to become indignant. ‘The first time a man says he loves you, it sounds quite thrilling, unt!) you stop to remember that he OUGHT to be able to do it convincingly, con | sidering how many times he has said it to others. ‘The art that conceals heart: The modern man’ preach-of-promise-proog ‘love-letter, warranted to mean a lot end say nothing.
