10 realize that many things that they
look upon as easy OF achievement
a;.e harder to possess that they dream
Cd But their untiring zeal is help
full, and we sincerely trust that the
coming of the years may not succeed
in wearing away their high purpose,
but nay every good purpose they
POSSESS grow larger. better and
stronger all the while. We need
0Er toys and girls. We need them
to a~aken us to higher things. And
they need us. Not for what we have
so much, and for what We may do
or~them. Dollars and cents cannot
treasure their value, but we need to
invest more of material nature for
the welfare of the youth of this
Town. The truth is Bamberg has
never done much which Nigh be con-
sidereG as an investment for the
voIth. The schools We have con-
st?ucted, but that is in the nature Of
life insurance. We dare not let them
grow up in ignorance. and further
more that is but duty known to
all. Not until Bamberg begins to
Understand that the boys and girls
OF to-day are the men and women
Ct tomorrow and begins to drive
out and keep out certain kinds OF
places which have opened up in our
midst within the past year. will we
even seem to begin to place true
valuation upon our greatest asset.
Not only a constructive force for the
development of our boys and girls
is needed, but a repressive measure
is needed in Bamberg that they be
net led into needless temptations.
We believe that the town is ready
for a Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation or a similar organization
But we started out to welcome our
college boys and girls home and this
we must do now, and in welcoming
them with great pleasure, we also
include those who could not go and
did not go, for to them we owe just
as great a debt.

the sum of $1,000 which was prompt

ID. Zandt. who was the attending
physician gave It az his opinion hiatt

plexy from which she suffered for
tho past fifteen years.
Tho death of Mrs. Farr was a ira
gle ono. It is presumed that she had
gone to the cellar to fix the furnace
and was attacked while 1 nthe act

From tho marks on her face which
were dfsngurcd from coming IN con-
tact with tho coal 1t Is thought that
sho struggled from the coal and
made her way upstairs where she
was found by her husband. The con-
ditfon OF the surroundings indicated
that she had suffered terribly IN her
struggle to reach the upstairs portion
of the house before losing conscious
ness. All efforts TO revive the strick-
en- lady we're futile and she died
about s o'clock.
Mrs. Farr was in her fftieth year

ROWDYISM AT
SOUTH AMBOY
Boys Cause Disturbance On
Streets Sunday Afternoons
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

optttut ~ VIC p " "
South Amboy, Feb, "a number
of South Amboy's lads have been con-
gregating at the corner OF broadway
and Main street for several Sunday
afternoons In the past. Their loud
talking and actions bring them with
in the pale of prosecution under tho
~disorderly act,
Last Sunday afternoon there was a
pugilistic encounter among these
lads. whose ages range from twelve
to fourteen years and as the blood
began to flow freely, a lady living in
that vicinity raised her window and
called to two young mel who were
standing by, apparently enjoying the
scene, and asked them II they could
not stop such a display of brutality
upon the streets on a Sunday after
noon. They did not heed her re-
quest and were apparently indiffer-
ent to anything except the enjoy
ment Of seeing these lads In their
~endeavors TO bruise each Others
faces.
She then called to the lads to de-
sist OF she would call a police officer,
but alas, we have no police officer in
the daytime except the chief, who has
a general supervision over a city that
covers an area that would take him
a whole day to walk over
Then tell me, how can he be ex-
pected to suppress hoodlumism or
~disorderly conduct? Why not spend
some money In adding another good
man to the police force so as to have
one officer besides the chief on duty
in the daytime. Many times during
the day officers perhaps are needed
as much to preserve order and decor
um as in the night time, especially
on Sundays.
