An old silver clasp holds the belt at

With it I wear a white plush hat

an old silver buckle holding a stiff
little feather that sticks out straight
behind.
For morning wear and for shopping
| have a black and white serge that I
like very much. perhaps because 1t is
SO very plain and "tailory." The
skirt is cut narrow. The coat is just
a loose sack with a velvet collar and
white silk reveres. With this suit I
wear a white hat with paradise feath-
ers across the brim in front. I wear
with this fine French blouses that
turn in at the neck.
1 never wear a collar; in fact, no
one wears high collars this fall. The
doctors say that to swathe the neck
is to invite throat troubles. I am glad
that they are against the high collar
that made a woman look as though
her head was disconnected from her
body. We can wear our necks
dressed low and say 4by doctors or
ders." Even with my outiIg coats
and sweaters l do not wear q high
collar. My sweater is blue and white
and I wear it with a white hat and a
white broadcloth skirt. It is a jolly
thing for a morning tramp.
The tailored suit is the only thing
for the street. and for the girl who
must count her pennies I would adj
wise that she put most of her money
into her street dress, as h will veal

MERITS OF CHIFFON

In no material can we obtain better
color results than in real chiffon. The
wide choice of shades in this ethereal
material t~ranscends that provided by
any other fabric.
In the revival of historical and pic
turesque models we are greatly aided
by the compliant softness of modern
fabrics, which lend themselves to the
draping so much in vogue with every
kind of gown.

material that blends with the HkIrk
material is better.
In colors. for the fair girl. there Is
nothing prettier than the taupe shade
OF gray. I like il SO well that I HAYS
a tanpe or moleskin plush gown and
three-quarter coat for the cooler days.

Piano Lessons
Nv dear Miss Doom

Ny deal Miss Doom:
Can you let me know OF a teacher Of
good musical education willing to instruct
a person of ability who is anxious to
take up classical music seriously. The in
strument Is a piano. Thanking you in adj
vance. I remain,
Yours truly,
A MUSIC LOVER. :
Do you, mean you desire the lessons
gratis? I do not know of any teacher
SO inclined, though it is possible you
might be able to get lessons in ex-
change for clerical work or sewing.
Why not advertise in the Barter and
Exchange columns OF the Morning
Star?
If it is your intention to pay for
the lessons have some of your musi-
cal friends or the organist or choir
leader of your church recommend
some teacher. You will find a list
of music teachers on pages 1881, 1882
and 1888 of the City Directory, but I
think it will be the wiser plan to have
someone recommend an instructor
whose method he or she knows.

WILSON WILSON CLUB
|NDORSE THE
PARTY CHOICE

1t was unanimously moved last
night at the meeting of the Wilson
Club in Columbia hall, State street,
to endorse the candidacy of Cover
nor Woodrow Wilson, the Democratic
nominee for president of the United
States. The resolution committee,
of which George S. Walker Is chair
man, was instructed to draw suitable
resolutions covering the expression
of the club and forward a copy of
same to the governor. The Wilson
Club will support the governor to
the last ditch and earnestly invites
all Perth Amboy Democrats to join
the organization and forward pres
ent plans to increase the expected
Wilson majority in the city and coun-
ty next November. The club will
become the leading Democratic club
in Perth Amboy, and will be recog-
nized by the leaders as such.
Many members declared in favor
of a clambake, so the following com
mittee was named to further the
idea: Patrick Rocks, d. Flynn,
Hugh c. Reilly, George S. Walker
and William ]. Leavy. 1t is the ex-
pectation of the committee to secure
Soldiers beach for the outing II pos
sible Mr.. Soldiers ability in this
line is so we'll known that no com
ment is necessary. If 1t Is found
to secure Soldiers beach
local park will be secured.
City Collector Richard F. White
was named as chairman of the ban
ner committee, which will solicit
funds and prepare plans for the erec-
ton of Wilson banners across the
principal streets in the city. These
banners will bear likeness of the
popular governor, it is expected. The
remainder of the committee named
on this feature were as fe 5:
William Quigley, James Hen son,
L. G. Dalton, Patrick McKe L and
Henry Sandbeck.
The following Wilsonites were
named as the press committee:
George 8. Walker, James Henderson
and Dennis Flynn. Richard j. Gal
vim, alderman from the Third ward
and president of the club, presided
at last nights meeting, which was
attended by about one hundred en-
thusiastic followers of Governor
Wilson.

JUDGE LYON
IS NAMED ON
COMMITTEE

Former Judge Adrian Lyon, of
this city, who was one of the Roose-
velt pledged delegates from the Third
Congressional District to the Repub-
lican national convention at Chicago
in June, has been named by former
Governor J. Franklin Fort as mem
ber of the committee to arrange for
a state mass meeting, to advance the
third party" idea, on July 19 at
Asbury Park. Mr.. Lyon represents
Middlesex county on the committee.
Clarence E. F. Hetrick, of Asbury
Park, Mr.. Lyons fellow delegate
from this district, was appointed to
the committee as the Monmouth
county representative. The other
members of the committee are: Bor-
den D. Whiting, recently elected
member of the Republican national
committee from New Jersey; Ed
mund B. Osborne, of Mon.tclair;
Frank ]. Higgins, of Jersey City; j.
e. Bathgate, Jr., of Basking Ridge;
F. O. Potter, of Bridgeton, and AS
semblyman John E. Gill, of Trenton.
1t is Mr.. Lyons intention to con-
tinue his activities in the Roosevelt
ranks and he will exert his utmost
effort to have a majority rolled up
for the colonel in this city, county
and district next November. He ex-
poets to receive the support of those
who worked for Roosevelt at the re-
cent primaries. Mr.. Lyon declares
that the strength Of the third party
can be judged from the showing
made In this district at the primaries
April 28. He believes that If Wilson,
Roosevelt and Taft are candidates
for the presidency in November that
Mr.. Taft will receive the lowest
number of votes in the nation.
Several friends Of Judge Lyon
have been blooming" him for the
congressional nomination, either on
the Roosevelt or regular Republican
ticket. Mr.. Lyon emphatically de-
MED today that he is candidate for
this office, or any other Office the
people might select. He says he en-
tered the Roosevelt-Taft fight with a
desire to see the formers principles
rule. and not because of the likeli-
hood of any honor or financial re-
turn. When he denied his reported
candidacy in no uncertain terms, he
added: "You might make it strong
er than that. Write that l would
not accept any nomination, even If
rendered to me-"

DELEGATES At
SEA GIRT TO
GREET WILSON
1t Was Jersey Day in Every
Sense of the Word
Yesterday.
NUGENT WAS PRESENT

Sea Girt. July 9:-It was "Old
Home Day" at New Jerseys Little
White House yesterday. and there
came to greet Governs Wilson all Of
New Jerseys deleeates to --1a Balti-
1nare~eonXaStion except James Smi<h.
Jr Every one residing along the
Jersey coast who had any interest in
politics was present.
The visit of the New Jersey dele
gates to the home of the Democratic
candidate brought out emphatically
three political facts
First There is a practically over
whelming demand that Governor
Wilson continue to reside in the
states Little White House" until
he may find 1t necessary to move
himself and family to the larger
white House" at Washington.
Second. Robert s. Hudspeth, who
has been considered the leading rival
of Colonel w. r. McCombs for ap-
pointment as chairman of the Demo-
cratic national committee, wishes to
be considered as entirely out of the
running and in every sense a sup
porter of Colonel McCombs for the
position.
Third James r. Nugent, who be-
came famous as antagonist OF Cover
nor Wilson and was ousted from the
Democratic state chairmanship after
offering an insulting toast to the
governor, was seen to march up in
the file to shake hands with the gov
ernor as one of the delegation and
to shake hands with Dennis F. Col
Inns, chairman of the committee
which sent him the letter demanding
that he step down and out from the
leadership of the Democratic party
in New Jersey.
Shakes Nugent's Hand.
Governor Wilson's greeting to
Nugent was identical with that of the
other delegates.
AS Nugent approached the man
whom year ago he denounced he
held out his big hand and said good
naturedly, Il am glad to see you,
governor"
II am glad to see you, Mr.. Nu-
gent" was the governors answer.
With Nugent arrived Harry Back
us and Mayor Arthur Seymour, who,
with ex-senator James Smith, COM
prised the four Essex county dele
gates who voted to the last against
Wilson's nomination. Smith was not
present. In his place came Judge
Simon Hahn, Smiths alternate. In

C. R. R. SPEND
$4,000 FOR
MAURER WORK
Two Large Switching Towers
Being Erected--12 Tracks
for Oil Refinery.
TO FACILITATE TRAFFIC

Extensive alterations and addi-
tions are being made by the officials
of the G. R. R. for Its lines running
from Port Reading to this city. Work
has already been started at Maurer
which will cost approximately
$4,000. Two large switching tow
ers are under the course of erection,
one at Port Reading and the other
one 100 feet south of the bridge
spanning Woodbridge creek bridge.
When the devices are in working
order the switches will be controlled
by electricity.
Although the officials OF the con-
Germ in conversation with NEWS
representative today stated that
twelve more tracks will be installed
for the benefit of the large increase
in freight made by the oil refinery of
the Barber Asphalt Company, yet no
plans have been formulated for the
safeguarding OF life by the erection
of gates. The new lines will estab-
lish Maurer on fast freight line
service to and from all points.
The towers are being constructed
OF concrete and from them the
switches will be locked and turned.
This device will cost about $4,000
and will be one of the most up-to-
date improvements placed on this
division of the road. At Port Read
ing the traffic has been greatly In
creased and more tracks are being
placed there. Several hundred men
are at work over the stretch where
improvements are being made and it
is expected to use the new system in
three months.
Although the city authorities and
residents of Maurer have been agi-
tating gates at the Maurer crossings
yet when the work of tearing up was
commenced all thought that their
dreams would be a reality. Today
with the announcement that no gates
were being considered all hopes were
smashed. The work when completed
at Maurer and Port Reading will be
continued to this city and thence TO
the end OF the division.

SCULLY LEADS
DEMOCRACY IN
MIDDLESEXC GO.
(From the NEWS Correspondent)

kFTOW tHe ~ u w o tOffboPS'te"'Ns''
Trenton, July 9:-The talk or
Congressman Thomas j. Scully as
the new leader of the democracy IN
Middlesex county, coupled with the
formal announcement by Assembly
man A. C. Streitwolf, Jr., that he IS
a candidate for state senator to sue
ceed Senator Silzer, is an evidence
that the Democratic Progressives IN
Middlesex are alive and will wage
vigorous campaign. Congressman
SculIy's signal victory In the county
in the election for candidates to the
Baltimore convention and his work
at Baltimore logically make him the
Democratic leader of the county his
friends claim. Millard F. Ross, leu
tenant of Senator Smith and old-llne
standpatter, forced the fight against
Congressman Scully IN the presiden-
tial preference campaign and his de-
feat deposes him from further lead
ership, the Wilson men in Middlesex
say. Assemblyman Streitwoif Is an
ardent Wilson man and will have the
support of the Wilson forces IN Els
campaign for the senatorshlp.
