MORALS OF MORRlSTOWN
IN NEED or REluvENATION
Or. unny Peeachee ons Subject and
Cites SeveAai Cases Of I'm
morality Existing.

5 Preaching upon the subject Morals
of Morrlstown'' Sunday evening the
Rev: Ralph 3. Crmy, Is. d, told his
auditors that there were many things
in Morristown tlat need correcting
dasaite the fine ffepufation the town
has as a residential place. He cited
first drunkenness. which be Gained
TO BE on the ilsafeaae, pointing te
the saloon bars liued with drinkers
particularly on SATURDAY nights.
The toxin is making record for
itself, he declared, ia the matter OF
bad speech lie lad heard obscenity
shouted aloud at the dead of night
oaths and asserted that zhe sin was
spreading among women and girls
Sex immortality he declared to be
another case and said there was a
growing Iooseness of morality between
the members of the sexes and an i'm
difference to the relations that might
exist between young people of the
sexes. He Lad heard of men entic-
ing young girls to back rooms and
out of-the-way places These things
he thought were caused by parental
neglect and he urged the mothers to
be on their guard and to no longer
keep silent on the things that should
be known. Another reason for the
looseness of morals he asserted to
be the almost decay of morals mani
fest in much of the current drama
Immoral dances were also cited as a
reason, much of the present day dane
ing being described as unfit to have ;
place in the life of self-respecting
girls and young men.
The present styles of women's
dress DR.. Urmy condemned, saying
they were designed for purposes oi
suggestion and asserted it to be dis
GRACEFUL the extent to which Morris.
town women go in following the god
dess called Fashion.
He urged that Morristown needs
pitiless publicity upon these sins ant
the sinners and If there is no lega
way to reach them they should bt
arraigned and condemned before the
bar of public opinion

TRAINS OVER MORRIS STREET
BRIDGE WITHIN A MONTH
Shelter tiouas WI be Used as Tenn
poFay stakion-Mont Bridge
Cirders Set.

With the setting Of the monster
girders OF the Morris street railroad
bridge tie completion of the bridge
is expected in about a month by
that time the shelter house on the
Westzbound side OF the tracks will
be completed ana it win be used as
a temporary sutton until the main
station and grounds are ready. The
temporary tracks viii be torn up, the
cid station removed and the grading
up 10 the level OF the new tracks
completed before the main station
is put in use.
The riVeting of the Morris street
bridge will consume two or three
weeks and it win take almost as long
to put in the concrete floor and lay
the tracks across it. The Ford av-
enue bridge is all finished except for
the concrete flooring for the east
bound side. This side has been in
use for a fortnight while the west
bound side was being finished. The
work on the latter has been COM
pleted and the tracks cut in so that
trains are now operated both east
and west over the west-bound side
while the floor is being put on the
opposite side of the structure
The monster girders of the Morris
street bridge were set with only one
mishap. A bridge worker had thumb
mashed and was taken to Memorial
hospital for treatment. The largest
of the three girders measured 120
feet in length, was seven feet high
and weighed eighty-six tons. A 100
ton derrick was at one end of the
girder and forty-ton derrick at the
other. Both lifting the massive steel
together it was set neatly in place.
The other two, both of about 100 feet
in length, were also set without diff
ficulty.
The girders have been stored for
several weeks near the railroad yard.
They were brought to the Morris
street crossing ON flat cars and were
unloaded and set by the two derricks.

"The Ahrens engine, according to

it very easy for them to go through
their test. In other words, we un-

strain on the machine, and they were
able to get through without any

get through the test without any

cIymer Back With stallinss.
Otis Clymer is back playing for the
manager who gave him his frst chance
in really fast company-George Stall
lings. 1t was in 1909 that Clymer, last
spring referred to as a promising
youngster" by President Murphy Of
the Cubs, Joined Buffalo, then managed
by Stallings. He came from the Tri.
state league. With Buffalo Clymer
played such good ball that Pittsburgh
secured him. but at the very start Of
his major league career he broke an.
ankle and was out for the rest Of the
season.
Then Joe Cantillon, managing Wash
lngton. secured him from Pittsburgh.
and after a stay with the Senators he.
followed Cantillon to Minneapolis.
Clymer's ankle. broken some years
ago, is still incased in a bandage, but
it dies not appear to have bothered
him in his work on the bases, for he
was a leading run getter and base
stealer in the association. He did not
meet expectations with the Cubs this
year, however, and was released to the
Boston Braves.
Manager Stallings has not yet decid-
ed what he intends to do with him.
His outield is already well taken care
Of, and it is possible that Clymer was
taken on with the intention of sending
him to Buffalo. If so he will have com.

club where he made his first real show
