If it has the suffix –cide in it, then you know it's meant to kill something. Pesticides are designed to kill insects, fungus, bacteria and other things that feed on crops, are vectors for disease, nuisances, and things that destroy property. Farming is big business and some farming companies are bottom-line driven, in business to make money at any cost. Pesticides and genetically modified organisms are a way to ensure they get the crop yield they demand, no matter how it hurts the environment or the consumers.
Two types of pesticides are biological and chemical. Biological pesticides can be developed using fungi, bacteria, and other organically present substances. Some biological pesticides are microorganisms that, without any manipulation, demonstrate natural effectiveness in targeted pest control. These generally aren't toxic to humans or animals and don't leave a persistent residue.
Who is to Blame?
Seven of the most toxic chemical compounds know to man are approved for use as pesticides in the production of foods! Who approved them? A multinational organization called The Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC). It was formed in 1963 from a cooperative effort between the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). Their overall objective was "…to protect the health of the consumer and ensure fair practices." The intent of the original 172 nations involved in this effort was to develop a set of food guidelines, standards, and codes of practice. It was to be an international endeavor to promote safety in food. In spite of their stated consumer protection responsibilities, the CAC approved toxic chemicals for use on our crops. These toxins are referred to as Persistent Organic Pollutants (POP's). They're called persistent because they are not easily removed from the environment.
The greatest risk to our environment and our health comes from the chemical pesticides. In spite of the dangers, the government maintains its approval of the use of toxic chemicals to make pesticides. And science is constantly developing variations of poisons.
Broad-spectrum and Narrow-spectrum Pesticides
Broad-spectrum pesticides kill many pests, while narrow-spectrum pesticides do just the opposite. Narrow-spectrum pesticides are developed to kill specific organism types. Examples are algicides for algae, avicides for birds, fungicides for fungi and oomycetes (also called water molds, they use surface water including precipitation on plants, to move around). Most pesticides kill pests directly on contact. Systemic pesticides work differently. They penetrate to the inside of a plant traveling along its absorption path. These poisons work by poisoning the pollen and nectar of flowers and this can kill needed pollinators like butterflies and bees.
Pesticides and Bees
Pesticides are a major threat to bees. The systemic poisoning of flowers has killed scores of bees. We're simply losing too many of them. The bees and butterflies among others are pollinators and they represent a natural tour de force in perpetuating plant cycles and evolution. You see, they do cross-pollination naturally. More than 25% of the bee colonies died in winter 2006/07. That translates to a loss of tens of billions of bees. And it's estimated that this loss will negatively impact the agricultural economy to the tune of $8 to $12 billion.
Who's at Risk for Exposure to Pesticides?
Farmers and their families and other persons who use chemical pesticides regularly are at greatest risk for achieving toxic levels in their bodies. The danger is spread out to larger areas, as the pesticides:
- Are carried on the wind
- Leave residues on produce
- Remain inside produce and animals
- Run off into open water, contaminating public water supply as well as fish and other seafood
Anyone who uses pesticides or is present when pesticides are sprayed is at risk for dangerous exposure. The pesticides can enter the body through skin, eyes, mouth and nose.
What are the Dangers from Pesticides Exposure?
Pesticides can be toxic to humans and lower animals. It can take a small amount of some toxins to kill. And other toxins that are slower acting, may take a long time to cause harm to the human body.
Pesticide production can be dangerous, too. One disaster at a pesticide manufacturing plant was in Bhopal, India. The plant accidentally released 40 tons of an intermediate chemical gas, methyl isocyanate, used to produce some pesticides. In that disaster, nearly 3,000 people were killed immediately, overall approximately 15,000 deaths occurred. Today nearly 100,000 people suffer from mild to severe permanent damage as a result of that disaster.
Children seem to be greatly susceptible to the toxic effects of pesticides. The Natural Resource Defense Council has collected data which recorded higher incidence of childhood leukemia, brain cancer and birth defects. These results correlated with early exposure to pesticides.
Even just using pesticides in amounts within regulation, studies have revealed neurotoxins can do serious damage during development. Researchers report the dangers of pesticides can start as early as fetal stages of life. The Pesticides entry at Wikipedia.org lists some of the results that have been recorded in recent years including:
- Fetuses, (pre-birth babies), may suffer from exposure and exhibit behavioral problems, growth issues
- Lower cognitive scores, fewer nerve cells and lower birth weight
- A lower resistance to the toxic effects of pesticides
- A greater risk (70% increase), for Parkinson's disease, even with low levels of pesticides
Can you believe the government approved the use of some organophosphates despite the occurrence of illnesses? It makes you wonder just who the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is working to protect.
What you also need to understand is that toxins from pesticides can remain in the body and build up in the liver. And, even at "safe" levels your reactions can be mild to severe. High levels of exposure can be fatal. How do you know if you're going to be ill? You don't; you just have to hope for the best. How will you be affected? Well, you don't really know how you body will react to the toxins until it happens. Several factors determine how your body will react including your level of exposure, the type of chemical you ingest, and your individual resistance to the chemicals. Some people are unaffected or are mildly affected, while others become severely ill from similar levels of exposure. Some possible reactions are:
How to Eliminate Toxins from Pesticides
- Grow your own produce. Growing your own crops means that you can use healthful methods to control any pests. There are all-natural remedies for controlling pests and enriching soil. Or you can use organic pesticides.
- The threat of illness from pesticides can be minimized with a few actions taken. It's a good idea to keep your skin and face covered when you are in close proximity of pesticides use.
- If growing your own crops is not an option, shop healthy. Visit your local farmer's markets for the freshest organically grown foods. At your local grocery store, look for organic food products. Since awareness is being raised, more people are paying attention to what they're eating, as are the store managers. More and more stores are working to accommodate this new healthier appetite by providing consumers with the organically grown products they want.
- There are certain produce items which contain the highest levels of pesticides. Avoiding these crops can reduce your pesticides consumption levels by as much as 90%. Some of these items are fruit like cherries, apples, peaches, pears and grapes. Vegetables you could avoid are celery, spinach and sweet bell peppers. Remember, if they are organically grown, then these are safe to eat.

Robert Kelly Brings "Exquisite Junctions" to Sophia Contemporary for His First London Solo Show
Drawing on his extensive travels, Robert Kelly's painted collages contain found print and material from around the world. Kelly has included antique botanical drawings, handwritten notes, small sketches, vintage posters, and signs in his work. To create the ground for his paintings, he lays the re-appropriated paper in long strips to form irregular grids, small squares, and triangles. The repeated application of paper often obscures the printed content beyond recognition. "I have grown fond of the pared-down tools of line, form, and color and the bountiful yield of their juxtapositions, without the need of references or symbolic otherness to give them meaning," he has said. Having laid the ground, he paints abstract geometric shapes and meandering lines in oil and gouache. In an effort to complicate the notion of a completed work, Kelly has deconstructed many of his canvases and rearranged them into abstract assemblages.

- Average fan spends nearly 14 hours a week following the game, research shows - Nearly 1 in 10 admits to spending more than 40 hours a week
- Average fan spends nearly 14 hours a week following the game, research shows
- Nearly 1 in 10 admits to spending more than 40 hours a week
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwire - Dec. 24, 2012) - With the new football season well and truly underway, many fans will be wondering where all their time has gone. That is because fans spend an average of nearly 14 hours a week following the beautiful game, according to new research* from cash and stocks and shares ISAs provider Virgin Money.
The average fan racks up 13.8 hours each week on football - the equivalent of nearly two full working days - which includes time spent travelling to and from the match, watching TV, searching the internet and talking about the game with friends. That adds up to over 700 hours a year - or nearly a full month, spent being a football fan.
And that's only the average. Nearly one in five of fans surveyed (18%) admits to spending more than 30 hours a week on football, with a dedicated (or maybe obsessive) 9.7% spending more than 40 hours a week on the game. That is the equivalent to another working week on top of their job.
Fans of League 1 and League 2 sides narrowly edge out the Premier League when it comes to dedication. The average time spent being a fan in the lower leagues is 15.6 hours compared with 15.3 hours in the Premier League. Championship fans are less dedicated (or more balanced) with 11.5 hours a week dedicated to the game.
Graeme Tones, spokesman for Virgin Money, said: "It might be only 90 minutes on the day for the players but for the fans it's a lot more than just a game.
"Putting in 13.8 hours a week is like doing almost another two days at work and that's just the average. Some supporters are really piling on the extra time with many putting in more than 40 hours a week being a fan. Dedicated fans invest a lot of money in supporting football and this demonstrates they also invest a lot of time as well. It may be only a game but it certainly takes up a lot of time and effort."
The research shows not all fans are quite as obsessed - around 10% managed to keep their football habit down to four hours or less a week.
Virgin Money's nationwide study found some intriguing derby match-ups with Chelsea fans winning the dedication battle in London against Arsenal and Tottenham. The average Chelsea fans puts in 17.5 hours a week compared with 14.9 for Arsenal and 13.6 for Tottenham.
Manchester United lose out to reigning champions Manchester City, with United fans spending 12.7 hours a week following the game compared with nearly 14 hours for City supporters. Liverpool fans beat them both though with 16.1 hours. In another Northern derby, Sunderland supporters beat Newcastle United fans with 16.4 hours to 14.7 hours.
Virgin Money's Football Fans Inflation Index shows it is not as easy to keep the cost of following football down - inflation in the game is running at 3.26% while the average matchday cost is around £113.98.
Increased costs for match tickets combined with the rising cost of watching football on television have helped to send the total cost of the Virgin Money basket of football goods to £113.98 - the second highest since Virgin Money began tracking costs for fans in January 2006.
The cost of Virgin Money's basket of goods has climbed £3.60 since the start of the 2011/12 season - an increase of 3.26% - despite the general downward trend for inflation across the economy. That means football inflation is rising faster than the 2.6% level of the Government's official Consumer Price Index, Virgin Money's research shows.
Virgin Money's Football Fans' Index has tracked the cost of football since January 2006 and is aimed at helping supporters keep track of the rise and fall in the costs of supporting their team. The company identified the match day essentials fans buy and keeps tabs on increases and decreases.
At the launch of the index in January 2006, the match day basket of goods cost £77.95. However the most recent analysis puts the cost at £113.98.

Planning & Building Control
The Council is carrying out a review of its polling districts and polling places as a consequence of the District Council's electoral arrangements being reviewed by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England.
The Boundary Commission has made a number of changes to the electoral wards and their final recommendations can be view on the Commission's website www.lgbce.org.uk
As part of the review, a consultation period will run from Friday 9 March 2018 until Friday 20 April 2018.
The purpose of the review is to:
- seek to ensure that all electors should continue to have such reasonable and convenient facilities for voting as are practicable in the circumstances;
- seek to ensure that so far as is reasonable and practicable, the polling places designated are accessible to all electors, including those who are disabled.
During this period the Council is inviting representations relating to existing polling districts and the suitability of the existing polling places or any proposed polling districts or polling places referred to in the preliminary ARO draft proposals.
Representations would be welcome from electors and elected representatives or parties, parish councils, and individuals or groups with expertise in access for persons with any type of disability. Any person making a representation should, if possible, give alternative places that may be used as polling places. The submission form below may be used for this purpose.
A preliminary review of the effect of the boundary changes on existing polling districts and polling places has been undertaken by the ARO and a copy of the draft ARO proposals together associated maps showing the new ward boundaries and proposed polling districts and places will be published on the website shortly.
Polling districts are the areas into which district electoral wards are sub divided and polling places are the locations of buildings in which polling stations are established. Polling districts can be created as an electoral requirement but also as a means to provide a more conveniently located polling station for the electorate.
Following the consultation period the review proposals will be considered at a full Council meeting the agenda for which will be published on the Council's website and notice of the outcome of the review will be published within 14 days of the Council meeting.
The proposals will be incorporated in the new register of electors to be published on 1 December 2018.
Bolsover District residents who are already registered to vote willl automatically be sent poll cards to vote in the General Election.
You only need to register if you have moved house or have not previously registered to vote at the address where you live, and the quickest and easiest way to do this is online, where you will need to provide details including your date of birth and National Insurance Number.
The deadline to register for the General Election on 8 June is midnight on 22 May.
The deadline for receiving new postal vote and postal proxy applications, and for changes to existing postal or proxy votes is 5pm on Tuesday 23 May.
The deadline for receiving new applications to vote by proxy (not postal proxy or emergency proxies) is 5pm om Wednesday 31 May.
The earliest date that electors can apply for a replacement for lost postal votes is Friday 2 June.
The last time for re-issue of spoilt or lost postal votes is 5pm on Thursday 8 June.
The deadline for emergency proxy applications is 5pm on Thursday 8 June.

Each year every household in the Bolsover District will receive a Household Enquiry form, which is also known as the annual canvass. The information we gather from this enables us to produce the new electoral register and ensures that everyone who should be entitled to vote can do so.
If you are not included on the electoral roll you will not be able to vote so it is important that you provide us with up to date information on the occupants of your address. You can't vote until you reach the age of 18 but any 16 or 17 year olds in your household should be included on the form. You should not include any children under the age of 16.
All of the major credit reference agencies use the electoral roll to verify your details when you apply for a mortgage, loan or other credit agreement. If you are not on the electoral roll you are likely to have problems in obtaining any form of credit.
We will be sending Household Enquiry Forms at the beginning of August 2017 to every household in the district. When you receive your Household Enquiry Form, please check this carefully to ensure it is correct and advise us of any changes that need to be made. The form will include details of how you can do this. Please respond without delay as this will mean we need to send out fewer reminders and helps us to keep costs down. Reminder forms will be sent mid September 2017 to households where no response has been received.
The revised Register of Electors will be published on 1 December 2017.
The next elections to take place in Bolsover district are the Derbyshire County Council Elections which will take place on Thursday 4 May 2017. In Bolsover area, there are 6 electoral divisions represented by six county councillors:

We have issued the Notice of Election (11kb). Any new postal, proxy or postal vote applications, and changes to existing postal or proxy votes must reach us by 5pm on Tuesday 18 April 2017.
Periodically, vacancies arise on Parish Councils. Vacancies arise when Councillors cease to be qualified or become disqualified, do not accept their office after they have been elected, do not attend meetings, resign or pass away.
When a vacancy arises, you will see a Notice of Vacancy in the Parish and published at www.Bolsover.gov.uk advertising the vacancy.
Some Parishes are warded, which means that they are split into areas that are represented by specific Councillors. Sometimes, therefore, the Notice of Vacancy will specify the Parish ward that the vacancy is in.
When a vacancy arises, electors from within the Parish or relevant Parish ward, where the Parish is warded, may call for an election by writing to the Returning Officer at Bolsover District Council. The Notice of Vacancy will list the Parish (and Parish ward, if relevant) and the date by which electors must contact the Returning Officer to request an election.
Where an election isn't called, the Parish Council may choose someone to fill the vacancy without an election (co-option)."

College Football: Wildcats desperate for a winBy ALLEN LESSELS
New Hampshire Union Leader
October 11. 2013 10:14PM
Through four games, the University of New Hampshire football team is just about where it was last year in a couple of important offensive statistics.
The problem is, the Wildcats are off the mark a bit in the most important category.
UNH heads into today's Homecoming game against Rhode Island (noon, Cowell Stadium) clinging to the No. 25 ranking in The Sports Network poll with a 1-3 record. The Wildcats lost their only Colonial Athletic Association game, at Towson 44-28, last weekend.
Last year, UNH was 2-2 through four games and took off on a six-game winning streak on the way to nailing down a ninth straight FCS tournament appearance.
UNH scored 34.1 points a game last year and is at 32.2 through its first four.
Rhode Island, which went 0-11 last year, is 2-4 overall and 1-2 in the CAA.
"They're a good football team," said UNH coach Sean McDonnell. "They're a lot like us. They haven't been able to put their finger on some things and get rolling."
URI coach Joe Trainer thinks the Wildcats, who consistently have one of the best offenses in the league, may be more dangerous this year than last.
"I think they're better offensively than they were a year ago," he said. "They have so much balance. They have so many weapons. They legitimately go four deep at running back."
He mentioned the wide receivers and junior tight end Harold Spears, too.
One of the top Wildcat weapons, junior quarterback Andy Vailas of Bedford, has been slowed in practice this week by a knee injury sustained last week against Towson. He sat out a couple of series in the game and then returned.
Sophomore Sean Goldrich, who started UNH's first game last year and half the games during the season, gets the start today.
Goldrich has completed 13 of his 20 passes this season for 204 yards and two touchdowns and has thrown one interception.
Vailas may be available to play some today.
The Wildcats are allowing 32.2 points a game this season. Last year, they gave up 30.2.
"Defensively, they're a little like us," Trainer said. "Sometimes you watch them and they're brilliant. Other times, people are getting big plays on them."
The Rams have improved their offensive and defensive numbers over last year. They scored only 9.5 points a game last year and gave up 39.3.
This year they are scoring 16.8 and allowing 24.3.
Rhode Island lost one of its key offensive players when senior running back Justin Semmes went down with a season-ending knee injury in a 31-14 loss at Brown last week.
"He was really starting to heat up," Trainer said.
Rhode Island senior quarterback Bob Bentsen has completed 99 of his 167 passes (59.3 percent) for 918 yards and five touchdowns with four interceptions.
Dartmouth looks for its first Ivy League win of the season today in a home game against undefeated Yale.
The Big Green are 1-2 overall and 0-1 in the league and lost at Penn, 37-31 in four overtimes, last week.
Yale is 3-0 overall and 1-0 in the Ivy League and won at Cal-Poly, 24-10, last week.

Excellent update Nancy... Paul will be pleased...
I think a lot of the woodwork is original though some is in a bad state.
Some of the shop fronts are just that 'shop fronts' no character or resemblance to the original what so ever..

Looks good to me Tom. I hope you discover whose building it is or was. That makes a big difference in archiving film.
Thanks too for your visit to my pictures of Cardinals in Winter. I have a whole set of new snow related photos coming up.
Try this young man's blog, Tom. He lives in Japan and has married a Japanese Lady and they have one son. He has worked on big program development, like Adobe's Lightroom and knows about everything there is to know about photography and taking pictures.
Let me know how much you like his work.

Thank you very much for all the input on this one. The number of times I have been in that building in the past collecting all my winnings, (in my dreams). It just goes to show that you should always look up at old buildings as well as just eye level, you see much more. Yes it was the Progressive Clothing Co in the 1930's & 40's and next door was Harry Wood's fruiterer, later to have the large old tram depot on Lewis Street. The only thing that confused me were the letters "RST" on the shop sign. Anyway thanks again another mystery solved.

He has to interrupt awards shows (which he was doing well before the Taylor Swift incident, like that time in 2006 when he lost an award and went on stage anyway to argue that he should have won), and also whine about awards shows when he doesn't win, like the time he swore he'd never appear on MTV again after not winning at the VMAs.

Naming Superheroes According to B-List Character Rules
If you've spent any time reading comic books, watching comic book movies or enjoy the myriad of comic book cartoons, odds are you're passingly familiar with superheroes and their alternate identities. I would wager all of you know that Batman's real name is Bruce Wayne and Spiderman is Peter Parker.

25 Names You Can Use If You Ever Get Into Porn
Choosing a porn star name is an art and most people are not artists. Have you ever used one of those porn star name apps or tricks, like where you combine the name of the street you grew up on with the name of your first pet? And one person on earth will get the name Ember Lashtail and that will be awesome, but you end up with the name 7th Dog?

Casting Star Wars VII
Everyone is pretty excited for the new Star Wars trilogy, just look in the mirror. Aren't you excited? No need to answer, I already asserted that everyone was and that includes you. Until the movies actually get filmed, most of the excitement is now focused around casting. Initially people were pretty stoked to hear that some of the original cast was coming back, despite all being old and decrepit but, as JJ Abrams showed with Star Trek, he likes bringing back old, decrepit characters.

Texting, alcohol tied to crash
Albany lobbyist, wife of retiring congressman, charged by cops with DWI, texting, other counts
ALBANY — The wife of retiring U.S. Rep. Maurice Hinchey was text-messaging and at nearly twice the legal limit for driving drunk when she rear-ended a car Wednesday night on Lark Street, according to a police report.
"I was texting," Allison Lee-Hinchey, 49, of Hurley told a police officer as he questioned her about the 9:12 p.m. crash, according to the report filed in City Court. Asked if she had been drinking alcohol, she allegedly said, "I had a glass of wine" at a work function. She told the officer she was headed home.
She is the principal lobbyist of Albany-based DKC Government Affairs — an offshoot of Dan Klores Communications — and was in the Capitol Wednesday.
Lee-Hinchey was arrested at 9:43 p.m. after the fender-bender at the intersection of Lark and Lancaster streets, Officer James Miller, a police spokesman, said Thursday.
One hour and 12 minutes after the crash, Hinchey registered a blood alcohol level of 0.14 percent — nearly twice the threshold of the state's .08 percent limit for driving while intoxicated, police said.
She had been driving alone in a 2010 BMW when she hit a 2002 Nissan driven by a 34-year-old Albany woman, the report said. Neither driver was injured.
The report said Lee-Hinchey allegedly displayed an odor of alcohol, glassy eyes and unsteadiness on her feet. She failed four field sobriety tests, police said.
Her arrest came just hours before Thursday's announcement by her husband that he will not seek another term in Congress.
It is the latest in a string of driving issues for Lee-Hinchey — including a conviction for driving while impaired by alcohol May 17 in Hurley. Her license had just been suspended for that episode on Monday.
She was charged with misdemeanor counts of DWI; driving with a blood alcohol content greater than .08 percent; aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle; following too close; and driving while talking on a cellphone. She was given a desk appearance ticket on Wednesday night and appeared in City Court on Thursday.
Among previous traffic stops, she has four tickets for driving while talking on a cellphone, three incidents of ignoring traffic devices and two tickets for driving without a seatbelt, a state Department of Motor Vehicles spokesman said.
More Information
In addition to the two alcohol-related arrests, she has six points on her license, the spokesman said.
In a statement, Lee-Hinchey wrote, "I am committed to addressing this both legally and personally. I am deeply sorry and apologize to my colleagues and friends."
The arrest occurred just hours after word of her husband's planned retirement began appearing in media reports. The Democrat formally announced his retirement at a 1 p.m. news conference in Kingston. Lee-Hinchey was not present.
When a reporter asked Hinchey about his wife's arrest, the crowd shouted down the question.
"Not the time," one supporter said.
Hinchey waved his hand and said, "No ma'am" to the reporter.
Hinchey, who has battled cancer, said he plans to complete his term, which concludes at year's end. He said he wants to "work hard and focus on making life better for as many people as possible. That's what this job is all about."
He also acknowledged that his sprawling district, the 22nd, could be targeted as the state Legislature weighs the elimination of two congressional districts as part of its redistricting plans. He said that did not influence his decision.
Hinchey was first elected to Congress in 1992. Prior to that he served 18 years in the Assembly.
"I still believe in public service," Hinchey said.
"We need more people to choose those paths and become strong, effective voices for the middle class," he said.
The news conference ended with a two-minute standing ovation. Hinchey's final words to those gathered was, "I'm deeply grateful and I'm in love with all of you."

Youth to rally in Dover to prevent underage drinkingBy JOHN QUINN
Union Leader Correspondent
July 08. 2013 9:29PM
DOVER — Local teens are kicking off a campaign this week to help educate area residents about keeping alcohol out of the hands young people.
About 50 members of Dover Youth to Youth (Y2Y) plan to hold a demonstration Wednesday from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Cocheco Courtyard on Central Avenue in Dover. In case of heavy rain, the event will be held Thursday, according to Prevention Coordinator Dana Mitchell.
"The youth will utilize life-sized visuals, posters, flyers and chants in an effort to educate parents and the community about underage drinking and the source of kids' alcohol when they first start drinking (taking it from the home) based on surveys of hundreds of Dover students," according to a release.
Mitchell said the "target audience is adults and particularly parents."
Y2Y members are trying to maximize exposure during lunch hours as it "also serves as a good kickoff event for the campaign going forward," Mitchell said.
Mitchell said Y2Y has been successful during previous event. He added this week's rally will re-launch the group's ongoing multi-media effort with broadcast reminders on radio, television and other means.
About 200 area students — in grades 6 through 12 — are involved in the program, which is coordinated by the Dover Police Department's Community Outreach Bureau. Members are broken down into 50-student groups who work on a variety of recreational programs and efforts to inform area residents about the dangers of tobacco, alcohol, and other drugs.

OTISVILLE — It's going to be a three-way race to gain the top seat Tuesday in the Village of Otisville election.
OTISVILLE — It's going to be a three-way race to gain the top seat Tuesday in the Village of Otisville election.
For the fifth time in a row, Otisville Mayor Brian Wona will be squaring off against Lou Maurizzio in the western Orange County village of about 1,100 people. But this year there's a newcomer to the mayoral race — Gary Ketchum.
Lou Maurizzio, 68, served as mayor from 2001 to 2007 and is running against Brian Wona again. Photo Provided
Wona, 45, won his third term as mayor in 2011, defeating Maurizzio, 144 to 120.
This year the hot topic in the village has been the ongoing debate over forming a joint Mount Hope-Otisville fire district.
Wona, a Port Jervis Department of Public Works employee and Gulf War veteran, is running as a Democrat after running as a Republican in the last mayoral race. He said he switched because he "goes to the beat of his own drum" and "doesn't answer to party lines."Maurizzio, 68, served as mayor from 2001 to 2007, defeating Wona in 2005.
Wona said he's standing on his mayoral record of reducing debt in the village and building up reserve balances in water and general funds equalling about $539,000. He said he doesn't lean either way about forming the joint fire district, but has commissioned a study to find out what it would take to run the department without Mount Hope's fire fund contribution of about $341,000.
"Whatever the future brings between the town and village, we need an analysis done to find out what it takes to run the department," Wona said.
Maurizzio is a retired Sullivan County lumberyard manager. As for forming a new district, the candidate said he wants to prepare a list of pros and cons and a three-year budget that would be presented to villagers and then brought to referendum. The decision shouldn't be just up to the village council, whose members are also the fire commissioners, Maurizzio said. "It's too big of an item to have five people decide on," he said.
This year, there's a newcomer to the mayoral race – Gary Ketchum, 60, a Mount Hope councilman. Photo Provided
Ketchum, 60, a Mount Hope tax collector from 1982 to 2011, is a Mount Hope councilman and a retired corrections officer. He's also past chief of the Otisville fire department. He said he supports forming a joint fire district with Mount Hope because it "would take the politics" out of governing the department.
"Fire service should be removed from the political arena," Ketchum said.

Top U.S. bank regulators and lawmakers are pushing for action to limit the risk that the government again winds up financing the rescue of one or more of the nation's biggest financial institutions.
Officials leading the debate, including Federal Reserve Governor Daniel Tarullo, Dallas Fed President Richard Fisher and Senator Sherrod Brown, share the view that the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act failed to curb the growth of large banks after promising in its preamble to "end too big to fail."
Strategies under consideration range from legislation that would cap the size of big banks or make them raise more capital to regulatory actions to discourage mergers or require that financial firms hold specified levels of long-term debt to convert into equity in a failure.
The push for revisiting the law or writing new rules "is absolutely driven by a sense that Dodd-Frank did not end too big to fail," said Mark Calabria, director of financial-regulation studies at the Cato Institute in Washington and a former aide to Senator Richard Shelby of Alabama when he was the ranking Republican on the Banking Committee.
Three of the four largest U.S. banks -- JPMorgan Chase & Co., Bank of America Corp. and Wells Fargo & Co. -- are bigger today than they were in 2007, heightening the risk of economic damage if one gets into trouble. JPMorgan's 2012 trading loss of more than $6.2 billion from a bet on credit derivatives raised questions anew about whether the largest institutions have grown too complex for oversight.
Restructuring Megabanks
That loss is among events that "have proven 'too big to fail' banks are also too big to manage and too big to regulate," Brown, an Ohio Democrat, said in a Jan. 22 e-mail. "The question is no longer about whether these megabanks should be restructured, but how we should do it."
Brown and fellow Banking Committee member David Vitter, a Louisiana Republican, are considering legislation that would impose capital levels on the largest banks higher than those agreed to by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and the Financial Stability Board, which set global standards. Brown also plans to reintroduce a bill he failed to get included in Dodd-Frank or passed in the last Congress that would cap bank size and limit non-deposit liabilities.
The two senators have asked the Government Accountability Office to look into the economic benefits including lower borrowing costs that banks with more than $500 billion in assets receive as a result of federal deposit insurance, access to the Fed's discount window and investor perceptions that they'll be rescued in times of trouble.
No Consensus
Momentum for revisiting Dodd-Frank, whose Democratic authors Senator Christopher Dodd and Representative Barney Frank are no longer in Congress, is driven by both parties. Still, lawmakers are nowhere near consensus on what approach to take -- whether raising capital standards, limiting the size of institutions or curbing subsidies.
The push by regulators may encourage Congress to take another look at the law, said Camden Fine, chief executive officer of Independent Community Bankers of America, which represents about 5,000 small lenders.
"I think there's going to be a synergy here between the regulators and Congress," said Fine. "If regulators call for new authority, Congress will look for that. I would say that between now and probably the end of 2015 or 2016 you're going to see some significant step by both Congress and regulatory agencies to rein in the big banks."

It has become a cliché to point out that pointing out that Super Bowl hype has gotten out of control has become a cliché. That much is crystal clear.
The ancillary events that surround the Super Bowl offer something for everyone: haters, watchers, hate-watchers, hate-watcher haters and hate-watcher hater-watchers. There are even some events that appeal to football fans. Here are the 10 most absurd, wackiest and most self-consciously hype-propelled events and phenomena of Super Bowl week. We love them, we loathe them, and we can ignore them as easily as a jumbo jet parked in our driveway.
10. NFL Honors. Football fans said it for years: "This sport is great, but it would be even better if it were more like the Tony Awards." The NFL heard your pleas last year and created "NFL Honors," an award show and telecast that combines all of the tightly choreographed thrills of the Golden Globes with the high-wattage star power of Gary Kubiak in formal wear.
Alec Baldwin hosts NFL Honors, and Baldwin is engaging enough, but attempts to glom buzzy young Hollywood stars onto the festivities are often puzzling. Taylor Lautner walked unrecognized down the red carpet last year, because few football writers are also "Twilight" moms. This year's telecast features a performance by OneRepublic, as the Fresh Beats Band refused an invitation for political reasons.
Yes, Virginia, there really is a red carpet, down which NFL players, coaches and legends strut, sashay, limp, waddle and in some cases stalk as if they might be asked to shed a tackle at the end. When working the red carpet as a reporter, it is hard to tell which is stranger: asking Brandon Marshall who he is wearing, or getting a serious, detailed answer.
9. Log Rolling: It would not be Super Bowl week without players saying blandly laudatory things about their opponents for seven straight days. Quarterback compliments quarterback, coach compliments coach, coach compliments quarterback, quarterback compliments coach, and offensive linemen gleefully compliment everyone on the rare occasions when they are asked. For variety, a few players compliment Jesus (this week, that is Ray Lewis' turf). With access tightly controlled and scripted and players unwilling to provide even a hint of bulletin-board material, all interactions take on the stilted politeness of the dialogue in an E.M. Forster novel, except that Forster had no fondness for the phrase "heckuva competitor."
All of this perfunctory praise builds upon itself like the stairs in an M.C. Escher painting until a player who was simply a "heckuva competitor" at the start of the week becomes "a beacon of athletic excellence shining from a hilltop of human achievement whose light of legacy will burn for generations," which is actually the working title of my Tom Brady biography. We have come a long way since Joe Namath held a press conference at poolside. Then again, no one wants to see Isaac Sapoaga's upper thighs.
8. Counter Programming: The Super Bowl provides great opportunities for people who have zero interest in sports to illustrate just how zero interest in sports they really have. A web browser search for "Puppy Bowl" revealed that Puppy Bowl IX has attracted 16,300 mentions in the last 30 days, with articles in The Atlantic and The New Yorker, as well as People and Bleacher Report. Puppy Bowl is somewhat adorable, and the taped program runs during the endless pregame lead-up, when the choice of a playful pit bull over Terry Bradshaw has obvious appeal. But this is the ninth annual event, so the veterans of the first game are already on the Senior Health Maintenance chow. No one is talking about pensions for those former puppies, who left all of their friskiness on the gridiron for our amusement. Perhaps someone should.
Television networks are forced to either beat the Super Bowl or join it. Count on Food Network to focus on tailgate snacks and barbecue this week, while HGTV goes heavy on the man caves and "House Hunters" in New Orleans. Honey Boo Boo will be cheerleading, or something, and the "Amish Mafia" may begin marketing something like Harbaugh Butter. Any highbrow cultural programming is typically marketed as some kind of Super Bowl antidote: "Tired of hearing the troglodytes drone on about the 'Big Game' and the coaching brothers? The Cultural Broccoli Network has a pair of feuding brothers you can really get excited about: Arvino and Pagano in Verdi's I Lombardi alla Prima Crociata. With an intermission full of puppies!"
Your local coffee house will probably also have a folk music open mic night, or something. Better to drown in hype than die of Patchouli asphyxiation.
7. Media Day: The most notorious event of Super Bowl week: a Roman orgy in which the wine and debauchery have been replaced by banal quotes and poorly concealed hostility. Media Day is our industry's excuse to stuff a tube down our own metaphorical esophagus and gorge ourselves like foie gras geese on a fatty slurry of pregame hype. The players trapped inside interview booths for hour-long interview marathons are ironically the only people in attendance not trying to draw attention to themselves. The whole event is televised, and sometimes open to the ticketed public, so fans can watch players go glassy eyed at inane questions while reporters jostle each other as if the person who gets 18 inches closer to Pernell McPhee wins an automatic Pulitzer.
Media Day, like many Super Bowl events, has acquired its own gravity and atmosphere, so sportswriting cutups like me are more likely to write about Media Day than to write reports based on the interviews we conduct during Media Day. You might think that this would be a good year to report on the phenomenon of reporting on the phenomenon of Media Day, which I am technically doing in this sentence, but in fact that became a common angle on Media Day about two years ago. At some point, you just stick phrases like "Delanie Walker spoke to a bikini model holding a disco ball dangling from a fishing pole Tuesday," on a plate with some field greens, then move on to something else.
6. Commissioner's Press Conference: Imagine a State of the Union address without all the messy democracy, and you have a great idea of what it is like when Roger Goodell gives his annual NFL report to hundreds of reporters and a national television audience. The commissioner will assure us that television dollars are good and concussions are bad, that Thursday Night Football is here to stay no matter how many teams are forced to play three games in 11 days (it didn't hurt the Ravens, right?), and that kickoffs may be replaced with an obstacle course or whatever else popped into someone's head after Coaches Drink Free night at a Mobile bar during Senior Bowl week. The conference is conducted in a tightly controlled, dignified manner; reporters swarm players like ducks around a kid with a loaf of bread all week, but the commish gets treated like Xerxes.
After the press conference, which everyone sees, we all write identical articles based on what we were told. Except me, of course: I will provide a link to Mike Garafolo's USA TODAY Sports report, then criticize Goodell for not creating pensions for Puppy Bowl veterans.
5. The NFL Experience: Actually the NFL Experience is fun for people who like huge tradeshows in convention centers. Ticket prices fall somewhere between "regional theme park" and "lifelong bonding experience or die trying" for a family of four, and enough father-and-preteen-son duos bounded happily out of the event in Indianapolis last year, with bags full of memorabilia, that the NFL's answer to Comic Con deserves some benefit of the doubt. Kids get autographs from minor players and the chance to run drills on artificial turf; fathers get cheerleaders, a referee simulator (no, it's not a dark room), some wholesome live music and autographs from minor players. Football-disinterested family members probably get something too, even if it is just a few hours of peace. It is all mildly fun.
The NFL has gotten so monolithic and corporate, however, that it has lost touch with mild fun, a criticism that can be extended to most events of Super Bowl week but holds doubly true for the NFL Experience. "Step inside a uniformed body-cast mold bearing the insignia of your favorite NFL team and have a friend snap your photo," proclaims the caption for a photo of a tyke standing inside a giant Steelers mannequin on the NFL Experience Main Page. Yes, insert your biological spawn into our gladiatorial simulacrum and create a digital image as an enhancement to memory. An explanation of the waiver form appears just below the Steelers kid; the NFL and its sponsors are not responsible if junior skins his knee during an activity or if he cuts himself while stepping into a uniformed body-cast mold. Thrills are not guaranteed. Any unlicensed use of the insignia is prohibited, so color inside the lines, kiddies.
4. Injury Report Opus: Every Super Bowl, one player's injury status is conflated into the kind of philosophical question that made Socrates eager to order the double hemlockitini. Will he play or won't he? Will he be 110 percent, as all players must be for the Super Bowl, or less than 100 percent? Do we really expect a straight answer from head coaches who make Richard Nixon look like an over-sharer?
Last year, it was Rob Gronkowski's ankle; by the end of the week, we had stopped asking Bill Belichick about it and started asking Deepak Chopra. Two years ago, it was Maurkice Pouncey's ankle; Pouncey was then a rookie center, and an excellent one, but more words were written about Pouncey's ankle in the week before Super Bowl XLV than about all the body parts of all the centers in the league during the entire 2011 season.
This year, David Akers' psyche may replace the traditional ankle on the injury watch. Akers has been slumping lately, so we will ask Jim Harbaugh about Akers' psyche and Colin Kaepernick about Akers' psyche and Justin Tucker about his opposing kicker's psyche. Akers himself will be given the press conference equivalent of a Rorschach test. The more we are assured that Akers' psyche is nothing to obsess about, the more we will obsess about Akers' psyche. The only saving grace about all of this psychological speculation is that it appears that Akers is completely healed from the sports hernia that bothered him early in the year. Otherwise, we would have to replace "psyche" with "pelvis."
3. Radio Row: If the thought of roughly 100 sports talk radio shows going on at once does not immediately trigger an aneurysm, then Radio Row is the place for you. More of a gauntlet or maze than a row, this corner of the media beehive is set aside to allow radio producers, personalities and engineers to do their jobs in the noisiest, most chaotic conditions possible. Radio Row was open to the ticketed public at times last year, so fans could see how the magic happens: Athletes and personalities on a promotional junket march from makeshift studio to makeshift studio like ants canvassing a community picnic, delivering nearly identical interviews to irascible, distracted hosts, who are just wishing that the intern would return from his cigarette break and throw away the pile of Styrofoam chicken wing containers. The glamour is palpable.
2. The Media Room: A simmering caldron of suspicions and petty resentments with cubicle partitions, semi-reliable Internet access and a soda machine. The "box" we are all instructed to think outside of is, in fact, the media room, where we all haunch over our laptops so no other reporter can steal our top-secret features angles (I'm working on a story about the Harbaugh brothers!) or see that we are just playing Minesweeper. Reams of paper holding typed transcripts of every redundant podium interview line a huge table in the center of the room; every once in a while, a frustrated beat reporter dives onto the table and waves his arms to make a Transcript Angel.
There is an inverse correlation between the time spent by a reporter in the media room and the quality of his or her Super Bowl coverage. That said, many of us are always there, because there is a soda machine.
1. Reporters Complaining about Covering the Super Bowl. Nothing screams "Super Bowl Week" like the obligatory carping from those of us who are getting paid to attend an event millions of fans across the world can only dream of witnessing live. Rest assured that when you are not hearing about David Akers' psyche, the Harbaugh brothers' genetics, Roger Goodell's plan to expand the season to 52 games or Ray Lewis' Ray Lewisness, you will be privy to every inconvenience or hassle we endure to provide you with the most interesting coverage you can get without owning a television. If the temperature drops below 40 degrees in New Orleans, I personally plan to take to Twitter and pout as if I am embedded in a combat unit in the Pamir Mountains.
Yes, negotiating the absurdity, noise, self-conscious hype and general nuttiness of Super Bowl week in exchange for hanging out in one of the most cosmopolitan cities in America on the company dime and being a tiny part of the biggest sporting event on Earth is a dirty, dirty job. But somebody's gotta do it.

India on Wednesday picked Yuvraj Singh, who is recovering from cancer, in a 30-man preliminary squad for the World Twenty20 to be played in Sri Lanka later this year.
The 30-year-old, regarded as one of the most flamboyant batsmen in world cricket, completed chemotherapy in the United States in April after being diagnosed with a rare germ-cell tumour between his lungs early last year.
Yuvraj, who has not played competitive cricket since the two home Tests against the West Indies in November, only recently began light training at the National Cricket Academy in Bangalore.
It is not certain that Yuvraj will be selected in the final 15-man squad that must be finalised by mid-August for the September 18-October 7 tournament.
The left-hander will need to play club cricket in the intervening period if he is to remain a serious contender for the tournament.
Yuvraj, speaking in an International Cricket Council television show last month, declined to give a time frame on being match-fit.
"I've done six or seven sessions of very light training and very light yoga," he said. "I'm just getting back into the groove of being a normal person.
"I can't really give a timeframe but I have to see how my body is recovering and how fast I can come on the field. I might take six months, I might take two months. So I don't know.
"But the day I feel 100 percent I surely will be back."
Yuvraj played a key role in India's 50-over World Cup triumph last year, scoring 362 runs and taking 15 wickets in nine matches to be named the man of the tournament.
He rose to fame when he smashed England's fast bowler Stuart Broad for six sixes in one over during the inaugural World Twenty20 in South Africa in 2007, which India went on to win.
India failed to reach the semi-finals in the next two editions in 2009 in England and 2010 in the West Indies.
Off-spinner Harbhajan Singh, who has been out of favour since the England tour last year, was also named in the preliminary squad announced by the Indian board in a media release.
India's preliminary squad:
Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, Ravichandran Ashwin, Pragyan Ojha, Umesh Yadav, Ashok Dinda, Ajinkya Rahane, Manoj Tiwary, Rahul Sharma, Vinay Kumar, Zaheer Khan, Yuvraj Singh, Robin Uthappa, Irfan Pathan, Yusuf Pathan, Mandeep Singh, Piyush Chawla, Ravindra Jadeja, Shikhar Dhawan, Ambati Rayudu, Harbhajan Singh, Munaf Patel, Naman Ojha, Dinesh Karthik, Praveen Kumar, Lakshmipathy Balaji.

Who better than a five-time Oscar nominee and best-actress winner to help decorate the backstage green room at the Academy Awards?
Susan Sarandon is collaborating with designer David Rockwell on a photo installation for the Architectural Digest Greenroom at the Oscars on March 2. They're planning a digital display encompassing 86 screens — smartphones, tablets and TVs — one for each year of the Academy Awards. Images honoring movie heroes and Oscar history will show individually and collectively across the tableau.
The 67-year-old actress and the veteran architect and designer are also selecting black-and-white film stills for the stars-only space, where nominees and presenters hang out before taking the stage.
"I've been to the green room several times, and the idea of putting something in there that really makes you feel part of a tradition, it's really lovely," Sarandon said by phone Wednesday from Costa Rica, where she was enjoying the last days of a vacation. "Because it's a night that has so many ups and downs... it's kind of nice to remember that just to be nominated you're part of this family that's been going on for 86 years."
Rockwell, who designed the stage for the Oscar shows in 2009 and 2010, said Sarandon's familiarity and history with the Oscars make her a perfect partner for the project. Sarandon said she was drawn to it out of her love of movies and the Oscars, the opportunity to delve into the film academy's vast photo archives and admiration for Rockwell's work.
"And his son is a Ping-Pong prodigy," she added. Sarandon is a Ping-Pong enthusiast who has opened social clubs in New York and Los Angeles and appears in a Ping-Pong movie that screened at the Sundance Film Festival last week.
Besides helping to curate the photos, the actress gave input on other elements of the room. "I also suggested a few high stools," she said, "because when you're in your dress and it's tight, you can't sit down so low on the couch."
"We both agree that the bar cart needs to be prominently featured," Rockwell said.
He described the space as a contemporary "urban loft." The digital photo display will fill one wall and the framed film stills, another. There's also a "fantasy garden" attached: a plant-filled outdoor space that transforms the Dolby Theatre's loading dock into an attractive smoking patio. (In years past, Jack Nicholson could be spotted in his tuxedo and shades puffing a cigar on the unadorned, cement porch mid-show.)
The green room is an enclave for stars on Oscar night — the only place free of reporters and cameras.
"It's a long evening, especially if you're nominated toward the end, and (this is) someplace where you can take a breath and not worry if you're picture-perfect and smiling every second," Sarandon said, adding that there's natural camaraderie among presenters and nominees. "It's a great opportunity just to say hi, to tell people how happy you are for them that they've been nominated and how much you loved their performance and ask questions and laugh. It's probably the only relaxed place that is there, really."

Davis. Pursuing the tactics which he used at his mcetting with foreign language news¬ paper editors, held at the Union Club in Cleveland, Davis with eloquence nnd in¬ sistence boosted the bill recently intro- . duccd by Johnson, which requires all aliens to register, but as in Cleveland, when the ques:ion of quotas was raised, declined to,discuss it on thc grounds that this is "in thc <hands of Congress." Davis' department has .Klmittedly, however; been working on the bill whi;h requires all aliens to be registered and this legislation has been united by John¬ son with his proposal to base quotas on the 1890 census of nationals, instead of that of I»10. That the Administration may back the 189() census plan which was des'igned to reduce all immigrants from non-Nordic •'regions of Europe to a minimum, but maintain the flow from England, Ger- fnahy and Scandinavia, was indicated by ¦J president , Coolidge's message.' Mr. Coolidge also favors registration of aliens. , The efforts of Johnson have-been at¬ tacked in Congress and iHie charge was openly made, tIiat;jtP.,,movc do cut off immigration from Central' and Southern Europe hears the imprint not of racial ¦iSj|>^'ofc. rclj^'ons discrimination. ¦''¦' '13ayi"'acted as chairman of yesterday's meeting with 'Secretary Davis, which took place at Davis' invitation at the National Republican Club. Both the quota plan and the Davis registration proposal were attacked by- the editors. I<i the opinion of the editors, Davis' pro¬ posal for registering aliens is "unfair, discriminatory and insulting." Secretary Davis would not discuss quotas, bttt stated that he favored sclcc- , tive measures applied in European coun- •tries. To this the editors replied that they are not against a selective scheme which JS' not discriminatory in charac¬ ter. It -was Chairman Edlin who de¬ clared that Johnson's 18!)0 census scheme was "particularly offensive and disprim- inatory." Discussing the Davis «regis- tratioti plan he said after the confer¬ ence: , "When the foreigner comes here his natural inclination is to Americanize himself atid 4its children, simply from a desire to get along. But you can't cram Americanism down his throat." It is announced that the editors have organized to fight the Davis registration and Johnson quota plans. It was in September, 1022, that John¬ son urged that quotas of countries in which Jews are oppressed as a racial minority be reduced. In his opinion the continued adtftission of Jews may result in shnilar racial divisions here. He de¬ clared at the time that "leading" Jews in Ambrica upheld his attitude but did nat reveal the identity of his Jewish ad¬ visors. Ca<blc some time later at an in-, spection at Ellis Island expressed the belief that too many Jews are coming to the United States. BUNDISTS DEPLORE OR.

Speak¬ ing on Christmas Eve., Mr. Zangwill said it was not theology that distin¬ guished Christianity but its spiritual content. The Madonna, he said, repre¬ sents motherhood, and Christ, sacrifice. There was a good-sized audience at thc opening of the p!ay, including a considerable proportion of Jews, The play was warmly received and Mr. Zanc^will who was obviously thc chief interest of the audience, was applauded until he was obliged to respond.

It has been a pioneer in na¬ tional tuberculosis work, commanding attention from its very incep- ,' tion twenty-five years ago. Because of its immediate success people suffering with tubercu¬ losis came to it by the hundreds from all parts of the country. Today the hospital has 12 buildings and accommodations for 185 patients, and during the twenty-fjve years of its existence has cared for about five thousand patients.

Stein was intimately connected with the Hebrew School from its very start. He was elected first treasurer and held this office until the last moment. When already con¬ fined to his bed, his , greatest pleasure was to talk of and make plans for the benefit of the Talmud Torah, which was very dear to his heart.

In the regions of Charkofi, Kiev and Odessa and in parts of White Russia, 9,000 Jewish farming families were settled.

Mr. Stein was born in Russia fifty- seven years ago. He came to Colum¬ bus twenty years ago and opened a jewelry store. By persistent application and good business judgment he built up a prosperous trade. In all his dealings with customers and wholesalers he ex¬ emplified the principle of the Golden Rule. Consequently he made many friends outside of Columbus as well a.s in the city proper. Funeral services were held .Monday afternoon, a very large number of friciicis and acquaintances attending. Rabbis I, Werne and E. Pelkowitz both reviewed the career of the deceased and declared that he had lived the life of an ardent son of Tsrael.

Then the jews .were under the influence of Dar¬ winism and the internationalism of 1848 "and were inclined to regard their evolu¬ tion riot as a hypothesis but as a dog¬ matic, new revelation. At that time there was a tendency to a belief that tlie Jews were not a race but a rclfgion. "These factors," he said, "led to a tremendous conflict between the younger and ti\i older generations, and the younger generation was impatient of the methods of their elders." He said that' the present young Jews, whether they realized it-or not, were the products of Zionism atfd that the aim of Zionism had been "to convert Jewish youngsters into real young Jews."

"To supplant the leadership of Jewish millionairedom with the leadership of the Jewi-sh mind and spirit, that is the task for American Jewry," he said. For the American Jew the problems of Palestine and other wrongs of the Jews in Eastern and Central Europe \vere not so great a problem as the problem of leadership.

"The Hospital Teaches Them lo Smile Again" A mother, father and son came from an eastern city, the parents both sick with tuberculosis, the son with a pro¬ nounced tendency. The father has left the Hospital restored to health, and is now establishing himself in a warmer climate so that he ciii make a home for hi'i wife and child. The boy is well nourished, healthy and happy, and there is no further fear of tuberculosis for him. The mother has improved and it is the hope of the Hospital physicians that by the time her husband is settled she will bk fully able to^make a happy and comfortable home for ber little 'family. During the past year a little boy has learned to smile again. He was sevcii years old when he came to the hospital, three years ago. Since he was eighteen months old he had -suffered with a tubercular ankle, and he came to the Itospitiil on crutches. Can yon picture the face of a child which during-ihild- liood's happiest years has not known the presence of a smile? Such was this boy's face. A face without a smile when he ciune to the hospital to¬ day he is happy and animated, the live¬ liest of the youngsters in the,Children's Pavilion. A voice that three years ago was laden with suffering and despair is today the most eager on the playground. This boy has thrown away his crutches — life smiles for him — and he smiles back at life.
