TO nnish)
Remember man that thou art dust,
To dust thou shalt return
And from the ashes TO us given,
May we that lesson learn.
Life is a very transient thing
'Tis like cloud at night;
We see it-when we look again.
'Tls vanished from our sight
Yes, Master, we must follow Thee.
Mons the blood-tracked way,
Must share His pain and sorrow.
II we would on that day
That He comes to count His jewels,
Among the brightest shine;
And dwell forever with Him,
In heavens own glorious cline.
Come to dark Calvary and sec
Him stretched upon the cross.
And realize that an we do
Could be but counted dross.
Was ever love so great as that,
His life He freely gave,
That we might paradise regain,
And He a world might save.
Oh. don't forget the nail-torn hand,
The tender bleeding feet
That pierced side-those upturned eyes
Twas agony complete.
You know the blood-drops tricked
down.
That gentle, sacred face.
Nothing the world can offer you,
Can that sad sight eiface.
Then walk beside Him every day
For life is passing fast
Your call may come just any day,
And your last Lent be passed.
YouT need Him when the death-deW
stands,
Upon your dying brow.
Then render unto Him your all
Oonb wait-but do it now.

ICE FAMINE HERE
IS THREATENED
Food Administrator Is Appealed
to in Effort to Secure City's
Full Supply.
NO MEN TO HANDLE IT
Besides Lack of Help Lake
Hopatcong Supply Has Been
Cut Off.

There is grave danger of an ice
famine here. The two local ice COM
panies have appealed to Food Admin
istrator William H. Griswold to as
sist them. Shortage of help is the
cause.
The ice companies want Food Ad-
ministrator Griswold to take up the
matter with the state authorities to
see If the ice plants from which the
local companies buy their supply cam
not be forced to send to Perth Amboy
a sufficient supply.
According to information received
from Perth Amboy Coal and Ice Com
pany, the big ice concerns at Lake Ho-
patcong and the Pocano mountains
are not making any effort to ship the
taken any steps to increase the labor
in order that the supply may equal
the demand. This morning there was
but between 800 and 400 tons of ice
on hand at the Perth Amboy Ice Com
pany-a supply which will not last
more than a week.
At the plant Of the E. J. Dorsey &
Sons Ice Company 1t was announced
that the Lake Hopatcong supply to
them had been cut Off completely and
that the ice which they are now re-
ceiving is coming from Wilkes-Barre,
Pa, and amounts to only fifty per
cent of the normal supply. It was
stated by one of the firm that there is
at the present time 1900 tons of ice
in the Dorsey ice house, but labor can
not be secured to chop out this ice
in order that 1t might be used to meet
the great demand.
Realizing that the condition is very
serious. Food Administrator Griswold
has requested the people OF Perth
Amboy to economiZe as much as pos
sible in their use of ice In order that
matters may not become worse. With
such weather as yesterday and today
the demand is much higher than nor
NAL and the supply of the ice compa-
nies now on hand is rapidly reduced.
Scarcity OF labor TO cut UP the fee
and handle II at the ice houses is given
as one of the causes of the threatened
famine. The companies have been un-
able to secure men TO do the work al
though they have repeatedly adver.
tised. fs
