PROSPEROUS MONMOUTH COUNTY TOWNS ALONG
Line OF JERSEY CENTRAL TRACTION COMPANY.

on the ocean where there is surf
bathing. Then there are the hills
to climb and the woods for picnics
and camping. The campers are num-
erous in this vicinity the surround
ings being ideal for them.
If it is rest one Is seeking. what
could be more restful than to re-
cline on n of the broad piazzas
overlooking the bay and Sandy Hook
and watch the continual passage of
boats O fall descriptions. There is
always something different to see.
The scene is v the same. To
watch a storm from such a point is
to realize the grandure of the temp
est as 1t lashes the great ocean with
all its fury.
Atlantic Highlands is reached by
the Central Railroad of New Jersey,
changing car at Matawan. 1t Is also
the terminus Of the Jersey Central
Traction Company which operates a
trolley line between Atlantic High
lands and the Highlands, and Red
Bank, Keyport and Perth Amboy.
One of the things for which Atlan-
tic Highlands is famous Is the term
mus of the Central railroads feet of
Sandy Hook steamers. These boats
are recognized as the fastest In New
York harbor. There are three of
them, the Sandy Hook, Monmouth
and Asbury Park. They are put into
commission every summer and are
run to meet trains at Atlantic High
lands, which carry the passengers to
any point along the North Jersey
coast. These boats are handsomely
fitted up and are used extensively by
commuters going to and from their
summer homes along the shore and
New York. These boats dock at a
long pier extending out into the bay
at Atlantic Highlands. The trains
run out to the end Of the pier where
the passengers step direct from the
boat into the cars.
There is also at Atlantic High
lands a station Of the New York
Yacht Club. Nearly always there is
one or more boats, flying the New
York Yacht Clubs ensign at her
mast head, lying in the harbor.
Fol- a place of pleasant homes,
charming scenery, delightful air and
within easy reach of the cities and
large shopping centers, Atlantic
Highlands is ideal. The place has a
borough form of government and its
Inhabitants are wide awake to keep
abreast with the times. The place
is growing rapidly and bids fair to
become one of New Jerseys most
famous resorts. There is every rea-
son why this should be. realized. At
lantic Highlands can offer attrac-
lions that no other place possesses,
in the ever changing views from her
hills already referred to.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1910-08-05
ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS

A continuous panorama of ships
of all nations, is the view to be had
at Atlantic Highlands. In no other
place in the world, perhaps, can this
scene be equalled. Located at that
point wheret he renowned Sandy
Hook joins the main land, Atlantic
Highlands, and the Highlands, a few
miles distant, e e the vessels as
they pass to and fro, In and out of
h matchless harbor of New York.
From the great ocean grayhounds to
the tiny schooners and snorting tug
boats, all pass before the gazers at
Atlantic Highlands. For one who
loves scenes of the water and en-
joys marine life, there Is no place
to surpass this location.
The Highlands is about four miles
from Atlantic Highlands. At the
Highlands n reaches the ocean.
At Atlantic Highlands, one is inside
the famous horseshoe formed by
Sandy Hook, and the water front is
on Raritan bay, or Sandy Hook bay
as 1t is called. 1t is at the High
lands that the long sandy stretch

as they pass. Here also is the fam
Gus Sandy Hook light, a beacon
which guides more mariners, per-
haps, than any other light in the
world. The light looks insignificant
enough when one is close to it, yet
when 1t is realized how far out to
sea it throws its rays n is i'm
pressed with the wonderful power
of It's lenses.
There is always something inter
esting at this point Of New Jersey.
In the first place, 1t is the beginning
of the resorts along the Jersey coast.
Atlantic Highlands proper has a
population of about 1000 the year
round. The cottage colony is large,
being the principal feature, although
the hotels do a good business. The
town rises above the bay in a con-
tinuous climb. Nearly all the streets

the streets go round and round the
hill in circles, each street being

MATAWAN

One of the most noticeable fea-
lures about Matawan is the con-
tentment of its people. This Is
shown by the manner in which the
borough officials are reelected from
time to time, the people evidently
being satisfied with the hammer in
which they conduct the business of
the place. To the resident of Mata-
wan there Is no place like 1t. You
can talk for hours about the glories
of other places, but the Matawan
resident will always come back with
some feature about his home town
that will show its great superiority.
The people are proud OF Matawan
n they have a right to be-. The
place fs one Of the most delightful
spots along the New York & Long
Branch railroad and it is constant
ly growing. There is no boom about
MataWan. 1t Is lust making pro-
gress in the good substantial way
that counts in the long run.
Matawan has been a borough
about ten years. Before that time
1t was a part Of Matawan township
and had a borough commission pre-
siding i've It's immediate wants.
This borough commission continued
for seven or eight years when the
place took advantage of the borough
act of the legislature.
1t was in 1896 that Matawan cut
lose entirely from the township and
decided to paddle her canoe alone.
Daniel E. VanWickle was elected
the first mayor, and, with the ex-
ception of a single year, he was
mayor continuously until the first
Of the present year when the pres
ent mayor, S. B. Eggleston, took Of
fee. Evidently the people of Mata-
wan were pretty well satisfied with
Mayor Van Wickle. In fact, there
is reason to believe that at one time
he was the only man who would be
mayor.
But there are those in Matawan
who have held Office longer than Mr..
Van Wickle did. For instance, there
is Charles H. Wardell, the cashier
Of the bank, who has been a coun-
Gilman ever since the borough was
incorporated and who was a mem
Der of the borough commission be-
fore that. F. G. Bedle is another
councilman at the present time, who
was a member Of the first council
the borough had. 1t only goes to
show how well satisfied everybody
Is with their officials. Another one
of the old officials who is still on
the Job is William A. Rodgers, the
borough clerk. He took office when
the borough was Incorporated in
1895 and has been handling the
record books ever since.
Right here 1t ought to be said
that the record books as kept by Mr..
Rodgers are a delight to look upon.
Penmanship seems to be a gift with
the borough clerk, and the neatness
OF his records are a distinctive fea-
ture. 1t is no wonder the borough
wants to keep him In It's employ as
long as possible. Few men would
give the time and attention to the
work that Mr.. Rodgers does.
But speaking of the Office of may
or, there was one year when Mr..
Van Wickle was not up for election.
