BoosTING PERrH ANNOY.

BOOSTING PERTH AAfBOY.
Perth Amboy is not getting full
credit for all of the industries locat-
ed here. Some of the largest plants
r situated In that section OF the
city known as Maurer. When Henry
Maurer located his plant on Wood
bridge creek he surrounded It with a
small town of his own. composed
almost entirely OF the employees of
his factory. AT that time communal
cation with Perth Amboy proper was
almost as difficult as with South
Amboy before the county bridge was
built. For his own convenience Mr..
Maurer had a p~ostof1ce established,
giving his W name to the place.
Since hal time State street has
been opened, a trolley line has been
built and the village that was once
so isolated, as far as Perth Amboy is
concerned, has become a part of the
city. The postofiice, however, has
continued. The American Smelling
& Refining Company, the Barber
Asphalt Works and the United Lead
Company, besides Mr.. Maurer's own
plant, have located in that vicinity.
These are among the largest indus
tries in Perth Amboy, yet on their
stationery, and, to a large extent, In
all their correspondence, they have
their plant addressed as if located at
Maurer, N. j., entirely distinct from
the city of Perth Amboy, which place
is not mentioned. In this way Perth
Amboy Is not given the prominence
II is entitled to In connection with
these concerns. While we recognize
that a postofice in their immediate
vicinity may be a convenience to
them, yet being within the limits OF
Perth Amboy the Maurer p~ostoftice
really be a branch of the
office here. This would not
only add to the prestige of our local
p~ostoflce, but would mean much for
the city at large. The correspond
ence of these large concerns, at
Maurer goes to all parts of the world
and it Is only fair that the name
Perth Amboy should be carried with
It.
Incidentally, we might inquire
what has been done toward the eff
forts to have the Chesebrough Vase
line Works place the name of Perth
Amboy on all the labels on their
bottles2 The ~yaseline for the whole
world, practically, Is made in this
city and the bottles are found In
nearly every household in all coun-
tries. 1t would be a great thing for
Perth Amboy to- have its name
so widely. We note the labels
say in very small tgpe,beneath the
IN New Jer-
1t would seem a small matter
to the G~hesebrough concern. yet a
great one to Perth Amboy, to have
the name of this city inserted before
the words, New Jersey"
Other cities are taking up this
matter. The Board of Trade of
Newark has adopted the motto made
SO familiar by Germany, and has re-
quested all the manufacturers of
that city to put the sentence, made
in Newark" on the articles they
make. This is a good thing for New
ark and is just as good for Perth
Amboy A little more cooperation
between the industries here and the
city itself would accomplish much
for the advancement of this com
munity.
