Regarding Land Sharks
and Suckers
One of our traders takes exception to our item on this subject and writes us the following letter, which we are glad to publish:
Hoboken, N. J., 4-18-18.
Mr. S. F. Pearsall. Dear Sir :—
I noticed in your issue of the 4th inst. you show ap or hammer the land sharks as seeking for suckers in Spring time. It seems to me (altho I may be in error) tbat those people are helpful to your community by bringing suck¬ ers out to buy and thereby increase population.    I   know   about  10  years

LICENSE DISCRIMINATION? The question raised at the Village Board meeting last Thursday regard¬ ing licensing moving picture shows was a proper one. It seems that these places are compelled to hand out from their earnings $5 each month, for which they receive no retum. It does not seem proper and just that this kind of a business sbould be taxed any more than a cigar store or a newspaper oflice.

any eeting tonight will vote in favor of tbe site proposed by the Board of Education for a school building.
Even if this site is the best one wbich the Board of Education can find, and no one questions but that they have done tbe best they could, and decided as they thought best, the [leople will not vote in favor of that site until they have several others upon which to decide.
The only way out of the difficulty at the present time seems to be to appoint a committee to work in con¬ nection with the Board of Education and secure an option on several or all available sites, and again submit the matter to the voters. In that way, the voters will have the privilege of seeing for themselves which is the most economical site, and will at least feel better if given the privilege of deciding for themselves.
I do not want to be understood as saying the first word against the method of the Board of Education, as I know and fully appreciate the diffi¬ culties they have to put up with, but at the same time I am firmly cn- vinced that it will be impossible to se¬ cure the approval of the people to the building of the High School under any other conditions (.ban in accordance with these suggestions; that is, by giving the voters themselves full privi¬ lege of deciding or trying to decide, what they want. In view of the many different opinions I have heard, I am convinced that they do not know what they want and many of them do not want to be told, but at the same time we must have a chance of expressing our opinion, or the proposition cannot be carried in any form.

A Word to Merchants
The merchant who advertises has a larger "audience" of attentive read¬ ers today than he had yesterday, or last week. For every day, some read¬ er of this newspaper (Jiacovers a new interest in the ads—drops out of that class of people who "merely glance" at the ads, and joins that wiser class of readers whio have learned tho USEFULNESS of the ads to them.
This quickened interest in advertis¬ ing makes the task of the enterpris¬ ing merchant EASIER—makes a large volume of sales, justifying his price- reductions, an assured fact. And by the same token, it diminishes the chances of growth in this city, of any store that is not strong enough tO' prosper IN THE FULL LIGHT.
