KEASBfY

the ninth round of the Keasbey vs..
FordS pinochle tournament organized
by Mat Lund, of Keasbey, was played
at the home of Harry Fullerton, of
Fords. Tuesday night. This round
was not very successful as was due to
some misunderstanding. AS the
keasbeyites arrived at a late hour,
only five games could be played. The
partners for the evening were M.
Schaub and Mat Lund, of Keasbey,
VS.. c. Lund, Jr., and H. Fullerton, of
Fords. The Fords players were the
vlctors of the evening, winning four
out of five games played. Refresh
ments were served after the games.
The last round will be played in the
near future, probably at the home of
Mat Lund, of Keasbey. This will de-
eide the winner of the tournament as
the Fords players are leading by a
few games margin.

ATTACK ON SALOONS
At MATAWAN EVENT
N. E. Church Mems Club
Passes Resolution to Aid in
Home Defense League
Pleasing Session Enjoyed.
SPECIAL to Che EHEYyNG NERs

Matawan, Mar. 29:-About fifty
members attended the regular
monthly meeting of the Mems Club
of the First Methodist church in the
lecture room of the church last night
and heard Samuel Wilson, of Jersey
City, the editor of the New Jersey Is
sue, the Official organ of the New
Jersey Anti-Saloon League of New
ark, give his famous address, Com
pensation for the Saloon When Local
Option puts 1t out of Business" AS
Mr.. Wilson has spoken before a num-
ber of Matawan audiences in the past
he is greatly admired and respected
in the borough and his audience gave
him the greatest attention.
Mr.. Wilson clearly brought out the
facts why he is not in favor Of COM
pensating the saloonkeeper and
among other things said that the sa-
loon had no inherit right to sell
liquor, the saloonkeeper pays for the
privilege to sell the stuff and when
the privilege is stopped that ends it.
If any one is entitled to compensa-
ton it is society for the harm the
saloon has done it.
Frank Howard Lloyd offered to the
club some resolutions which were
accepted by the members and passed
unanimously, two of the most impor-,
tant of them were: Resolved that
the club ask the federal government
and state legislature to pass a law
protecting the American flag, as at
present there is no law making it a
crime to misuse the flag or abuse it."
Another resolution was: Resolved
that the club as body offer its serv-
ices to Mayor William H. Sutphin in
cooperation with the Home Defense
League which is being formed in the
borough.
Four applications for membership
In the club were received and turned
over to the membership committee.
They were DR.. John Allen. the newly
appointed pastor of the church: Mr..
Blood. Mr.. Hogue and Mr.. Webb, all
new arrivals in the borough.

MAKING IT PLAIN

The Pure Food and Drug Laws aim
to protect the public by preventing
mis-statements on the labels of prepa-
rations but some people continue to
accept "extracts" of cod liners think
ing they will get the benefits of an
emulsion of cod liver oil.
The difference is very great. An
aemulsion" contains real cod H1er oil,
which has had the hearty endorse
ment of the medical profession for
many years, while an "extraot" is a
product which contains no oil and Is
highly alcoholic.
Scott's Emulsion guarantees the high
est grade of real Norwegian cod Iio'ey on,
skilfully blended with glycerine and
hypophoephites. Scott . is free from the
