KedSbey Wants Water Main
Extension; Lack Supply
By Special Correspondent.

KEASBEY, oct. 15.-A delegation
of nine, composed of members of
members of Protection Fire Company
No. l n property wners, approach
ed the township committee at their
regular meeting at Town Hall, Wood
bridge, on Monday night, and made
an urgent appeal to the board to take
action to have the water main ex-
tended to Keasbey proper.
At present, the water line extends
but to Keasbey Loop, coming from the
Perth Amboy main. The other line
extended from the Middlesex Water
ICompany's main, reaches but 10 the st.
Stephens section on the other end of
the town.
The lack of water throughout the
town proper has caused great incon-
venience to the public. Through the
courtesy of the Didier March Com
pany, Protection Fire Company, have
been granted the use of their hydrants
to secure water in the case of a fire,
for the past many years. Had it not
been for this, in the case of fire in
this section, water would be unavail-
able.
Frank Fee, one of the township
lighting commissioners and a very &C
tive property owner here, acted as
spokesman for the local delegation.
Mr.. Fee brought to the attention of
the Doard the fact that the people
have been clamoring for the extern
sion of the water line for the past
four years, but have always been put
off with promises of action by the
committeeman, but as yet. nothing has
been done.
Mr.. Fee also reminded the commit
tee of the contract made with the
Perth Amboy Water Company, seven
years ago which called for the lay
ing of water lines and furnishing wa
ter for Keasbey, but due to some rea-
son, the lines and water, only reached
throughout Keasbey Hill.
Upon hearing of the status Of the
local situation. the committee assur-
ed the delegation Of some relief.
Committeeman William D. Hoy of
Fords will call a special meeting at
the fire house here in the near future
when plans will be formulated for
the relief Of the situation.

Many At KeypOrt Church
Bazaar; Supper is Served
Bu special Correspondent.


KEYPORT, Oct. 15-Hundreds of
patrons visited the annual bazar held
at Calvary NJ. E. church last night.
The bazaar will be continued this
evening although the majority of
stocks were disposed of the first
night. 1t is estimated that more
than two hundred partook of the ex-
cellent roast beef supper served by
Mrs. Thomas w. Dawson and her
corps of able assistants. This even
ing a cold supper will be served.
The fancy booth, in charge of Mrs.
Garrett Van Glesen and the Tialois
Sunday school class was beautifully
decorated in blue and white and
proved most popular. The display
of artistic fancy work created much
interest and buying was brisk.
The domestic booth was in charge
Of Mrs. Amos Brown and Mrs.
George Dingwall and was decorated
in yellow and, green. The supply of
aprons was quickly exhausted and
more will be on hand for this even
ing's selling.
The touch and take table, in charge
Of Miss Teresa Walters and Miss
Emma Caldwell, proved very popu-
lar. This booth was ~attractively dec
DRAFTED with red and white. The ever
popular homemade candy booth, in
charge of Miss Helen osborn and
Miss Annie Laurie Tilton, was doubly
so this year because of the great
scarcity of sugar
The farm products and ice cream
were also popular and the colonial
exhibition in charge of the colonial
danes was probably the most inter
esting feature of the evening. In
this exhibit is included many relics
hundreds of years old, old photo
graphs, clothing, art and articles too
numerous to mention. The commit
tee carefully explained the various
exhibits, nothing like which has ever
been displayed here before.
The bazaar will be continued this
evening. The proceeds of the event
will be devoted to the improvement
fund Of the church.
