UUCef7i07 Edge
Visits Camp Merritt
Talks To Soldiers

Governor Edge was visitor to
Camp Merritt on Wednesday last.
He spoke to 5000 soldier boys, and
said he would rather scalp the Kaiser
than be governor of New Jersey.
Il enlisted when young fellow in
the Spanish American War, but we
didn't get very far because there
wasn't enough war to go around. But
you boys have a grand opportunity
to make this world of ours free 4
your task is to lick the Germans.
Not until the Hun is licked will the
war end, and that's what you are up
against.
81 know you will be successful, but
God grant that the sacrifice Will not
be too great.
eve are proud to have you boys
from all over the United States here
with us in New Jersey l hope you
stay here will be a pleasant one, for
know every man and woman, yohng
ad old this county all around you,
are. working night and day to make
things nice for you.
81 do hope that the people of this
country have made it plain to you
that they appreciate this sacrifice you
are making, for know they do.
"Wel have no selfish motive in this
war We are fighting for the dcmoc-
racy of the world. There are only
two kinds of men in this land of ours
the men in the war and the men
not in it; the men for the govern
ment and those against it, but thank
God there are few of the latter kind
"This war has made g. common
people of all of US, and the exchange
of opinions and thoughts will be to
your advantage later on, for it will
be- you who will be the leaders later
on-something even politicians will
be unable to deny you"

Grantwood Lady Dies
Suddenly In Ne,u York

The saddest event in the borough
during the past week was the sudden
death of Mrs. Seeley, of Lafayette
avenue. who was taken i'll on the
street in New York City, while at
tending to matter of business for
her husband. She was removed to
a hospital and word sent to her fam
lily here who could not at first COM
prehend the matter, as their mother
had seemed in excellent health on
leaving home.
Heart trouble seems to have been
the cause, and she died on Friday,
soon after her seizure and was buried
