Ston signs about various streets in the city are proving to be the "pet peeves" of many motorists. One sign In particular, located on the corner of Watchung and North avenues, near the Eastbound railroad station, providing for the stopping of all Eastbound automobiles on North avenue, has proved annoying. Most of the signs are easily seen at a distance, in either daytime or nighttime, but, although the sign at North and Watchung avenues is located where the State Traffic Act requires it to be placed Jt is seen by few motorists who pass the corner, and as a result, few motorists bring their cars to a stop before crossing the intersection.

Through traffic on North avenue passes a -considerable distance to the left of the sign, as the road is unusually wide at that point. The portion of the road nearest the sign is devoted, to the parking of cars at the railroad station and unless one is looking for the sign, niae out of 10 persons would not see it, it is declared.

While all National Broadcasting Company announcers must be careful to speak the language precisely and clearly, the announcers who read the daily stock market report over the N. B. C. System must be more than careful. Clear, easily understood pronunciation Is almost a mania with them.

Before they go on the air with the report they often read it over several times to be familiar with the various terms. The fact that a mistake might cause some listener an actual loss isthe reason for the super-carefulness.

There are to be big doings in Spain.

Julian Oliver, one of America's best known operatic tenors I and star of the National Grand Opera Company, sailed Friday, July 6, for his native Barcelona, and, according to word reaching New York, the reception planned for the prodigal son will be a fiesta in strict accordance with the best Spanish traditions.

Twenty-three years later the baby made his operatic debut singing the lead role in the same opera at Havana. Oliver didn't study opera with his father's approval.

His father wanted him to be a business man like hi3 brothers. "There's nothing in Opera for a young man," said the elder. Then he made every effort to discourage the lad who remained determined to become an opera singer. Young Oliver would return home from his singing teacher. "Let me hear your voice," the elder Oliver would request.

The son would sing. "That's terrible," said the elder Oliver. "Absolutely terrible. Take it outside! Give it up! You won't be a But Oliver persevered. He left Barcelona.

Made his debut in Havana. Sang in the capitals of South America and at last returned home to sing on the stage both his father and grandfather had graced. The elder Oliver stood in the wings through all the performance. When it was over he embraced his son. "I'm glad you didn't take my ad vice," said the elder.

"You've be come a great singer despite me." Oliver will return to New York in September to be on hand for the Fall season of the National Grand Opera Company on the N. B. C. System. Had "Swell" Time New York, Aug.
