Business Conditions Improving

The resumption of the steel mill, the starting up of the coal mines and the relighting of the coke ovens in and around Ensley, all of which has oo- cured in the past few days, has brought about a better feeling in busi- ness circles and a general optimistic sentiment prevails in the Steel City. The roar of the rail mill announced the fact that the mill has started up in earnest and the other activities that industrial conditions are much inn proved. The real estate agents state that there is a good demand for houses and some inquiries as to real estate. The outlook is very promising and from all indications business conditions will be much improved during the next few months.

yesterday morning when about to
enter the stage which conveys them

renovated, new carpet ON the floor,
seats repaired and best of all, the
side curtains replaced with some

hoped the school children who ride
in the same stage will appreciate the

SERVICES IN
SOUTH AMB0Y
Rev. H. M. P. Pearse Preach
ed in N. E. Church.

Special TO The EVENING NEWS
South Amboy, Jan. 5:-This week
is being observed by the churches as
the week of prayer. The churches in
this city arranged for services each
night excepting Saturday evening.
Monday and Tuesday evenings the
attendance was small, but last night
there ran a fair audience. The SER
vices were held in the John Street
M. e. church, the Rev. H. M. P.
Pearse, rector of Christ Episcopal
church. preached the sermon. The
subject was foreign missions. He de-
liyered an able discourse. Among
the points made in his sermon was
that Christ, when instrueting His
disciples. did not say go preach UNI
to the white, yellow or black man."
but said, go We unto all the world
and preach my gospel" In his Illus
trations he referred to the lepers
without the gate of Samaria who.
when they entered the Syrian camp
and found it deserted, after having
appeased their hunger, Immediately
returned to Samaria, bringing the
glad tidings of abundance to a starv-
ing people that they might enjoy the
plenty that was to be found in the
camp. The thought was pertinent
to us that we, having the privilege
of the gospel. should hasten to
spread it to other lands and that the
command given to his disciples, 'go
ye into all the world and preach my
gospel" applied to each and every
Christian of today with the same
force as 1t did to the disciples.
The sermon was not only interest
ing, but instructive and many things
pertaining to foreign missions were
brought out that heretofore were be-
yoSld our conception.
We believe the main reason why
there is not more interest in relt-
gious work is because people will
lot attend the public worship that
they may learn the will of God con-
corning them.

CRITICISM BY SOUTH
AMB0Y CORRESPONDENT
ipseiol to tse BvENFNq q

Special to fAe EVEETNG NEWS.
South Amboy. Jan. 5-Newspaper
reporters sometimes are misinform-
ed and sometimes they make mis-
takes, but they should be as careful
as possible not to get things twisted
too often. We learned some time
ago that pure guess work will not
fill the bill and we also noticed that
our worthy brother correspondent
had soime matters very much twisted
in reference to a decision given In an
appeal case from q Justices court in
South Amboy. This we passed over
without comment heretofore, but
when we noticed in one of our local
papers the aceoan OF Sunday after
noon services at the p. r. r. Y. M.
C. A. room, the report was not even
a good guess.
1t said the attendance was larger
than usual, when we presume on ac-
count of the New Year and inclemen-
cy OF the weather the attendance was
probably the smallest of the. season.
Another eulogized the singing when
1t was far below the average and 1t
said the Rev. Mr.. Allen, of the Bap-
fist Temple, of Philadelphia, deliv-
cred a very interesting and helpful
address. This might have been a
fact for we do not know where our
brother correspondent was on Sun
day afternoon, but we know that we
were at the Y. M. G. A. and that the
Rev. George Kane, of the Presbyteri-
an church, gave the address and a
good n on the Mercy of God.
In adding to our years a good
guess may do, but when we guess sc
far from the facts it makes it ride
ulous.
