CONTEMPORARY 10 CONTRIBUTE TO TIE PAGEANT Recruiting Committee Is the Outcome of the Club’s Beau tiful Yuletide Festival. "The True Festival Spirit," the theme of a paper to be read tomor row afternoon at the public meeting in Wallace Hall by Miss Mary Porter Beegle, director of the pageant dances, has also been made the in spiration of a new activity by mem bers of the Contemporary Club, who arranged the meeting. This club, "The Pageant Recruiting Committee,” is a joint committee of all the departments of Contemporary, organized by the arts and letters de partment. It is a direct outgrowth of the success and popularity which attended the Yuletide festival pageant given during Christmas week by thij Contemporary, under the chairman ship of Miss Anne J. Sutphen, when, instead of the expected "twenty odd,” eighty members participated in the beautiful spectacle. Such a wealth of talent was dis covered among the members of tHe club through this spectacular exhibi tion, and so much enthusiasm for creative and interpretative work was engendered that the decision to give the members of Newark's largest woman’s club further opportunities for the display of their talents was practically unanimous, and it is more than probable that out of the large membership, which exceeds 1,500, hundreds of enthusiastic and talented recruits will be forthcoming. A wide scope is offered in the sub committees of the pageant committee for the exercise of native talent, the sub-committees including acting, singing, stagecraft, making of prop erties, painting and decorating, ns well as costume designing, costume sewing and dancing. Filtering upon the undertaking with that zest and spontaneity which characterizes (lie public works of the Contemporary Club, the members of (lie recruiting committee, have been hailed ns a welcome accession to the community efforts to make the 250th anniversary a memorable success. In response to the request of Miss Beegle, chairman of the Shake spearean tercentenary committee, which is preparing to present Percy Mackaye’s Shakespearean masque during April in the New York sta dium, the members of the Contem porary who appeared in the old Kng lish dances of the Yuletide pageant will repeat the dances tomorrow afternoon at the public meeting. As previously announced, Thomas Wood Stevens, author and director of the pageant, will read from the hook of the play. DELINQUENTS DIM) FUN FESTIVAL CHORUS Two Hundred Vacant Chairs to Be Filled—Singers Urged to Join. C. Mortimer Wiske, director of the Newark music festival chorus, lias made good his threat to cut off "the slackers," and after a revision of tho lists today announced that 200 vacant chairs await occupants, who must apply within two weeks. Every chorister who has missed three rehearsals without satisfactory excuse, was dropped today, and the director says that not even Caruso would be permitted to remain a mem ber of the chorus without attending diligently at rehearsals. Tt Is expected that the vacant places will ho filled speedily, and the director has announced that no new members of the chorus will bo ac cepted after Wednesday evening, Jan uary If. Rehearsals are held every Wednesday evening in the Burnet Street School. Th music is difficult, requiring a great deal of practice, and the director is insistent in ins efforts to attain the best possible re sults. "Ottawa,” the $500 prize choral com position, will be taken up next Wed nesday night. The entire score has been published, making an attractive manuscript of fifty pages. Singers wishing to join the chorus should apply fit. the office of tho Festival As sociation, at 671 Broad slrcct.

REAL ESTATE VALUES • i IN POLLUTION CASE Witnesses Allege Depreciation in Suit Against City of Paterson. — I Tlie suits by Joseph Formans, Al- ! frod Stumpf and Benjamin flrunauer against the cily of Paterson for damages to properties owned by them, arising out of the pollution of the Passaic river, were continued to day before Vice-Chancellor Stevens.: A number of experts were called ; whose estimates of the lands in- j volved were given. The case is ex- ' pectcd to continue throughout the1 day and tomorrow. Benjamin Grunancc, called, testi fied that in his opinion, his tract of forty-four acres opposite Thirty third street. Paterson, was now worth hut $300 or $400 an acre. With the river purified he believed it would be worth $1,500 an acre. Robert Howard, a real estate ex pert, testified that he believed the Grnnanee tract to he worth $600 at present, but if the river was cleared would be worth $1,000 an acre. The Formans and Stumpf property just adjoining Mr. Orunuiier's land, lie said, is how worth $1,000 to $3,000. If the river is cleared, it will be worth $3,500 an acre. Jacob deLazier. an expert called by [the cbVriplainants, said lie believed | that tho Formans and Stumpf acre age would materially increase in value when tlie river became clear. It is now worth approximately $1,100 an acre, hut would lie worth more than $3,300 an aero after the purifica tion of the Passaic. Samuel Ledorer, another real estate expert, testified to practically the same estimates, as did Edward Bender, a young operator. The estimate of Hie experts as to the value of the C.runaeu acreage varied t from $600 and $700 an acre at present, i and $1,000 when the river becomes j clear. I Henry J. Hardar, city engineer of | Paterson, was the first witness for , Hie defense called. He identified sev- j era 1 maps that had been placed in i evidence and marked tlie boundaries of Hie properties in suit. QUIT MEAT WHEN I KIDNEYS BOTHER _ i Take a glass of Salts if your Back hurts or Bladder troubles you. No man or woman who eats meat . regularly can make a mistake by I flushing the kidneys occasionally, says | a well-known authority. Meat forms 1 uric acid which excites the kidneys, | they become overworked from the1 i strain, get sluggish and fail to filter j ifie waste and poisons from the blood, | then we get sick. Nearly all rheu matism. headaches, liver trouble j nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders come from sing- | gisli kidneys. . The moment you feel a dull ache in I the kidneys or your back hurts or if; the urin-t is cloudy, offensive, full of j sediment, irregular of passage or at- | I tended by a sensation of scalding? [ I stop eating meat and get about four | ounces of .lad Salts from any phar-I mac.v; take a tablespoonful in a! glass of water before breakfast and in a few days your kidneys will act fne. This famous stilts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate the kidneys, also to neu- ' tralize the acids in urjne so it no longer causes irritation, thus ending ! bladder weakness. 1 lad Salts is inexpensive and cannot I injure; makes a delightful effer vescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active |and the blood pure, thereby avoiding ; serious kidney complications.—Ad- . 1 vertisement. -I i PUT CREAM IN NOSE , AND STOP CATARRH .
