When the Trenton True American
calls Perth Amboy "a railroad ridden
small city, with every fourth maj de.
pendent upon the railroad in some
way OF otherIfor livelihood" it shows
its ignorance of Perth Amboy. There
was a timelwhen the coal docks were
practically the only means of employ
ment here, but it is far from being
true that now. The Raritan Copper
Works, tho'smelter of the American
Smelling & Refining Company, the
Barber Asphalt plant, the CHEESE
brough Vaseline Works, the Federal
CLAY Company with its half dozen big
factories, the largest terra GOTTA fac.
tories in the country, the STANDARD
Underground Gable Works, the Nixon
shipyard, the dry decks and umerou
smaller plants.all employ thousands o.
men, without counting the coal docks
OF railroads Mt all. The True Ameri
can ought to rome up and see us.

highly eulogistic OF the deceased. Some

amassing gold, and have nothing else to
show for their lives. Capt. Houghton, the
minister declared, was possessed of an en-
viable record and an indelible record. His
life was a noble life. His courage. accom-

THE BOOK OF BOOKS.
Address by DR.. Munhall Before Y. NJ.
G. A. Mass Meeting.

The address to the Young Mems Christian
Association mass meeting in the Lafayette
Square Theater yesterday afternoon was
made by DIR. L. W. Munhall, the evangelist.
The opening prayer was made by Mr.. Nc
Gill. one of the secretaries of the assocta-
tton's international committee. Mr.. ]. d.
McFall, the soloist for the occasion, sang
Nearer Home" Commissioner Macfarland
was among those on the stage.
DR.. Munhall spoke on the subject, The
Book of Books He said that the Bible
was a book incomparably above all other
writings of the world. He said 1t was an
authority on poetry, philosophy, physicai
science, biography, predictions, ancient MS
tory and ethical truth.
In speaking Of the Holy scriptures as d
book Of biography. he said:
when man wants to write biography
of a friend he puts into 1t all the good
things he knows OF the suo]ect on the uoS an
and leaves out all the bad. God did not 90
this, for He is a fair biographer, settnS
before the world the good and the bad. he
did this in the lives of Noah, Moses, top'
David and Peter. -,
of ethical teachings. The. contention Is
made that other religious books have oeen
written containing as much OF sucn mater
as the Bible. This may be true, put she
fact is that all the other authors borrower
and stole from the Bible.
And so when you read you will see that
a Master Hand wrote the book: Every
thing that man ever did has been improved.
Ii man wrote the Bible. why has it not been
improved? And yet no man has given US
a book better than the original OF it.
..Finally, everything that devils and
wicked men could devise has been done to
destroy the Bible. Yet IT survives today in
spite of all. The more you destroy 1t the
bigger it gets. In order to accomplish us
destruction well-nigh the whole OF the
world would have to be wiped OUT
