PASSAGES PASTORS
RAISE NO PROTEST
Movie Houses Are damned
and Sunday Blue Laws
Are Ignored.

The screen folk played to TANNED
movie houses in Passaic from 2 to II
p. NJ. yesterday. and, although the In
novation was a highly popular violation
Of New Jerseys much fractured blue
laws absolutely nothing happened up to
a late hour to add to the gray hairs OF
PASSAGES official family. Members OF
the Pastors Association didn't go TO
police headquarters to protest, no formal
complaints were filed. no arrests were
made and all movie fans were delirious
with Joy.
II was generally understood all over
the city that had anybody attempted TO
spoil the fun delegations of solid c!ti-
zens would have lost no time In warning
John II. Kehoe, Director of Public
Safety, and Chief of Police Gustav
Schmidt that il the theatres were to be
closed action would have to be taken
also in the matter OF otner blue law
violations.
AS It ia unlawful to do pretty much
everything in New Jersey on the Sab
bath except go to church and letting the
air go In and out of the lungs, 1t was
very lucky for tho police that no effort
was made to put cr!mp In the movies
on the first day Of their Sunday reopen
ing. IT was reported that some or the
most fannieh OF the movie multitude
were prepared to depose that it was
Rainst the law TO operate trolley cars.

No Interference offered.

The motion picture theatres were al
lowed TO do business yesterday without
an Interference for the reason that the
City Commission recently repealed an
ordinance which prohibited movie shows
on Sunday. This action was taken af-
ter a six reel campaign IN which the
Pastors Association was decidedly
against such a proposition. Apparently
the great majority OF passaic citizens
were in favor OF TIE repeater. how

Long before the theatres were opened
lines OF people stood in front Of the

The only theatre folks who didn't have
a perfectly happy day were the owners
OF the Play House.
This theatre had been engaged by the
Irishmen Of Passaic and other points
on the Erie TO celebrate the birth Of
the Irish republic. However. the prin-
cipal speaker for the occasion. Justice
Goff OF New York, was unable to get
there and SO the celebration was post

delighted crowds. Passaic has ten the

all would have been filed at all per-
formances.

He is a local boy and Plainville peo-

the 18th division coming to New York
are Harold Corning, Edward Barrows

that they will land by Friday if not
before.
Roads Being Repaired.
Selectman Johnson announced the
other day that the annual spring re-
pairing of town roads has been start
ed and the work will probably take
some time. The roads of this town are
not in extra paSsabIe condition and
much work will have to be done on
them to make them ready for sum-
mer traffic. Considerable work has
already been done in the territory
around Westwood Park. The, road at
the lower end of that place has been
widened and the entire stretch
scraped and the cutters deepened
The other roads on the outskirts of
the town will receive like care. The
side streets near the center of the
town will receive the most. attention.
Pierce street will receive another coat
of TON 6rpSSino-
to be fixed after a long period of in
attention. Mr.. johnson Travelled the
street himself this spring and had
reason to know its condition. He has
ordered the road we'll scraped and
lowered considerably in order to come
below the level of the cement walk on
the west side. After that is done a
bottom of crushed stone will be laid,
the street rolled, and a top dressing
of fine crushed stone laid. This will
prevent a recurrence of the Quagmire
which existed on the street this
spring. 1t will also cause the water
to remain off the sidewalks which are
by nearly the majority of the
children attending the local schools.

"Gcorgiana's Wedding Gown" will !
