w. C. T. u. NOTES.

The temperance essy contest last FRI
day evening was the most successful
ever held. The church was filled with
parents and friends of the contestants
and the essays were about the average
and the ladies of the W. C. 7. U. are
more than pleased NTH results. Our
judges-Drs, Barbour, Fisher and Wolfe
reported they found some very excellent
essays among the number submitted.
The essays were judged by numbers and
our judges did not know who the contest
ants were. There were two first, two
second and one third prizes awarded.
Miss Gladys Baxter of the high school
and Miss Veta Margaret Kellogg of the
eighth grade were awarded the two SIS
gold pieces and Miss Jessls Strong. eighth
grade the second prize of $3.50. The
other second Was awarded to Masters
Walter Healy and Ed. Chapman; their
average was the same, consequently the
money was divided equally between the
two boys each receiving SIPS. The third
prize of 81 was awarded to Miss Opal
White. The girls and boys acquitted
themselves with great credit. We extend
our thanks to the pupils and teachers for
making the contest success. also to
Misses Hunt and Lacy for the instru-
mental selection and Miss Towne for the
vocal solo; to Mrs. Cook and the judges
for their efficient work and the elders of
the Christian church for their hospitality
in opening the church to US. We feel that
some temperance truths were brought to
light that otherwise had been hidden. Our
next meeting will be the teachers recep-
ton with Mrs Hauok on Swink ave-, from
$50 to S, April 26th.

The EVENING NEWS has the
largest circulation In the county.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-07-26
INCLUDE ALL THE STREETS.

1t was a good days work that
the city officials accomplished at
Jersey City yesterday, when they Sc
cured the consent of the State Ripar-
ian Commissioners to grant the RI
parian rights at the foot of four
streets in perpetuity. This matter
has been hanging fire for several
years. The EVENING NEWS has
repeatedly urged the action, but 1t
has been put off on some excuse or
another. 1t seems, however, that all
that was necessary was for someone
with authority to represent the city,
to appear before the board and the
desired concessions would be grant
ed. 1t took the ferry matter to stir
the city up on this question and as a
result it now looks as If something
would be accomplished.
According to the request made to
the board yesterday, the rights at
the foot of Fayette, Commerce and
Washington streets and Buckingham
avenue are to be secured at the rate
Of $40 per foot. AS the law Will not
allow the riparian commissioners to
favor the city over a private indi-
vidual or corporation applying for
riparian rights, and according to
prices that have been paid before,
and considering the value of our
water front, the price of $40 per foot
Is very reasonable. 1t is safe to say
that the city Will never be able to
make a better bargain and we doubt
not that a year or two from now the
rights would cost a great deal more.
Realizing this, why stop with Sc
curing the rights at the loot of only
four streets? To be sure these are
the most important streets leading
to the waterfront as far as CONNER
cial purposes are concerned, yet
High street is almost as desirable as
any of the others. This waterfront
should not be overlooked; and while
the council Is about 1t, q wise policy
would be to include the foot of
every street running to the river or
sound all the way from the railroad
bridge to Buckingham avenue. Not
q street should be excepted.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-07-26

becoming more and more valuable
every year. The city will never re-
greet paying $40 a foot for riparian
rights fronting the lands we now
own. AS it will be necessary to is
sue bonds for the purchase of the
riparian rights on the four streets al
ready mentioned, it would be a COM
paratively small matter to increase
the size of the bonds so as to include
all the streets which doubtless can
be secured at the rate of $40 per
foot at the present time. 1t will be a
great deal harder at some later date
to go through with all this matter
against when the riparian rights of
other streets are desired. Now that
the matter is before the public 1t
should be cleaned up once for all.
The aldermen will be subject to
criticism for not looking after the
interests of the city If they neglect
this important matter. TO secure the
riparian rights at the foot of the
four streets already mentioned will
cost about $1O,50O. The city can
well afford to double and triple this
amount, If necessary, in order to SCI
cure the rights along the water
front which it is so desirable for the
city to own. The aldermen should
act without further delay.

STOSING TRAINS AND PLAY
GROUNDS.

The stoning of trains passing
through this city in the vicinity OF
Hall avenue has come to be a very
serious matter. The entire city is
effected by this, as the reputation of
Perth Amboy Is at stake. Thousands
of people pass through here to and
from coast resorts and it is decided
ly uncomplimentary for US. to say
the least, to have 1t known that upon
approaching Perth Amboy it is nee
essary to be on guard for fear of
personal injury.
The railroad authorities have sent
| their detectives here to look into the
matter and the local police are doing
their best to catch the guilty parties.
It Is the work of boys, however, and
the youngsters take good care that
there are no officers In sight when
they throw the stones. For the
sake of the good name Of the city
this practice must ease.
We do not believe that punish
ment such as Is meted out through
the present day police court meth
DDS will accomplish the results. In
fact, 1t has already proven to be a
failure. We would suggest that the
city open a good sized playground in
the immediate vicinity of Hall ave
nue. and the railroad where there
are many open lots, and fuupish hon
est. wholesome sport for the lads
who have nothing to do but stone
trains. and otherwise bring the city
into disrepute. Give these boys
something to do that will help make
men of them and be believe the Law
less practice will soon ease.
This method of dealing with such
gangs has been tried in other cities
and has been successful. 1t has
been found that, although for a
short time some of the boys have
hung off and refused to take palt in
the festivities at the Fairgrounds,
| claiming 1t is girls play or meant
for little children, they have soon
been won over with the right kind of
neople In charge of the play centers
and the old gang has entirely disap-
peared.
II would be a good Investment for
the city to make such a trial as this
in order to stop further stoning Of
trains as they pass here. We do not
want to have the name Of being the
worst place along the whole route
between New York and Long
Branch. This we are bound to have,
however. unless something is done
Omen a playground and keep the
bovs busy, then see what happens.

Tor the rights alone, the commission

for the rights alone, the commission
ers stated that at least six months
would have transpired before they
could have granted the rights, as
they would have to first get the city
to release It's claim and other red
tape would be necessary before the
grant could be made. Therefore,
the city is more of an assistance to
the ferry company than a hindrance,
as was feared.

WHERE TIME WAS SAVED.

While it was felt that the city en-
tering into the deal for the securing
of riparian rights at the foot of
Buckingham avenue would delay
matters. it turns out that through
the city's action the ferry company
Is really being benefited In time by
about six months. 1t was thought
nv some that the ferry company
could go before the riparian COM
mission and get the riparian rights
at once, whereas il the city took a
hand matters would be complicated
and there would be delay, something
which the ferry company wanted to
avoid.
AS It turned out, however, the ex-
act opposite is the case. The ripar-
ian commissioners Informed those
who appeared before them yesterday
that they were ready to grant the
city the riparian rights at once, and
the city could then enter Into any
contract for the leasing OF these
rights that 1t desired and as soon
a. 1t chose. On the other hand,
had the city not made application
and had the ferry company applied

return to the Gospel Message of the
New Testament.
The sympathy Of Jesus.
The multitudes in their enthusiasm
went long journey from home with
out making proper provisions for food.
The disciples urged that the people be
sent home. Jesus suggested" A"Give We
them TO cat" But they declared they
had nothing wherewith to feed so
many and that II oven they should
go to purchase IL would cost much.
Finally they found five loaves and
two fishes BY Jesus direction they
seated the multitudes in companies on
the grass. and the loaves and fishes.
under heavenly blessing. were divedod
and divided, again and again. until all
had portions and ate TO their satis-
faction; and the fragments amounted
TO twelve baskets. while those who
had partaken we're 5000.
This wonderful miracle not only at
tests our Lords sympathy, but it also
spoke volumes to the people OF the
Divine power that was In the Great
Teacher; but there Is still another
lesson which Il teaches us. Like all
OF the miracles which Jesus performed
Il was merely another fore-gleamlng
or illustration. OF His coming glory
and OF the coming blessings He who
provided the nourishment for the 5000
IS shortly to be the Great King OF
Glory. whose Kingdom will extend
from shore to shore, and bring blessing
and refreghment to all mankind.
This miracle speaks to us of the
power that our Lord win then have foi
providing for the necessities OF the
whole world. True. we do not expect
that during the reign on Christ tn,
world will be miraculously fed, bu
rather in accordance with the Scrip
tural promise, THE earth shall yielC
her increase" and again, 81 will cal

etc. etc. But specially the feeding oI
the multitude reminds us OF the fac
