REAL TEA PARTY
IS DAILY MEETING
ON PAPAS' TRAIN
Central Provides All the COM
forts of Home for Newarkers
Who Commute to SeashOre.

That it pays a railroad to carefully
patrons is shown by the large number
of Newark business men who go down
to their seashore homes every night
on what is known as the Husbands
Train" "Papas' Train Commuters
Club Special" and various other names
on the Central railroad.
There are four Pullman cars on the
train, each day, one of which is for their
use only. 1t leaves TWENTY-FIVE minutes
after 4 each afternoon, making the first
stop in Elizabethport to pick up shore
commuters from Elizabeth, Plainfeld,
Westfield, Crawford and other nearby
towns, n then goes on to Perth
Amboy before making another stop.
The next stop after that is Red Bank,
where the colony of Newarkers is rap
idly growing. The train then goes With
out stop to Little Silver, inc after that
makes all the stations down to Point
Pleasant.
Home In Time for Dinner.
AS the train comes to a stop and the
different commuters alight, they are
surrounded by various members OF
their families and escorted home to
dinner. The affectionate greetings they
receive are responsible for the different
names given to the train.
1T is questionable whether the COM
muters find greater pleasure at the
resorts aside from being with their
families) or on the train. About a half
hour before leaving time the members
of the club begin to gather and engage
in various games of cards. and when
the start is made the same foursomes
gather at the same tables they usually
occupy and become interested in their
favorite game.
These pleasant relations have existed
for u great many years, but it is only of
late-in fact, since a committee had a
conference with the Central officials
that they have had a special car set
aside for their own use, with all the
comforts that could be desired.
