DINNER MAY
MEAN MIXUP
0. c. Bogardus as Toast
master Causes 4 SquabbIe.

Keyport, Jluy 7:-Back of the Sc
lection of DR.. Obadiah G. Bogardus,
of K%eyport, as POSTMASTER at the
Democratic dinner to be given at
Scotty's, July IS, supposedly under
the direction of the Monmouth Coun-
ty Democratic committee, Is an in
~teresting story of a squabble between
bosses. Bogardus is decidedly out
of favor with the Rice-Crater faction,
the dominant element in the county
organization. The dinner committee
Of the county organization Is sup
posedly in sympathy with the Rice
Crater element, and Cornelius Sulli-
van, Its chairman, has generally
been classed as a Rice man.
Sullivan was a Rice man until he
was turned down for appointment to
the County Tax Board. He blamed
Rice and Crater for his failure to
land the appointment, and his selec-
ton of Bogardus for POSTMASTER, it
is said, Is his way of getting back at
Rice. Bogardus refuses to withdraw
and Is getting a good deal of fun out
of efforts which have been put forth
to dissuade him from serving.

You or I may have awaiting US,
after the active, useful part of life has
passed, an old age of ten or fifteen or
twenty years.
Are we, like my sweet old friend,
building for it now?
Building what?
Well, love for one thing-the love
of others for us and in our own hearts
the habit of loving others easily.
The habit of thought, for another
thing-not just desultory, dribbling,
| impressionistic dreaming, but real sus-
tanned thinking, that will be resource
to US when many of our present pleas
ures and activities shall be denied us.
The ability to be happy with little
things, for another item-of really en-
| joying warm, pleasant day in spring.
| the first robins song, the sight of an
lapple tree in bloom, the cheerful sound
of the hurdy-gurdy, the smell of a
| rose, the warmth of a friendly greet
ling.
The habit of serenity. for another
thing-not Just the outward control
that cloaks a passionate inner revolt,
but the real sweet soul serenity, the
kind that says:
IF there's no sun. 1 still can have the
moon;
If there's no moon, the stars my need
suffice;
And If they fail have my evening
