BACK ID THE BIBLE |S APPEAL MADE BY
 LOCAL EVANGELIST

"The Bible is the most bitterly hated book in all the world. Thousands of volumes have been written, and mil lions of dollars spent, to disprove 1t. In their furious endeavor to annihilate this book men have turned the key, lifted the headman's aX; pulled the rope, applied the fagot, bestrayed son and daughter father and mother, to horrible fates, soaked the soil of Europe and written the pages of history with the blood of the worlds nobliest and best. Still this book lives and makes it's power felt among the civilized and heather countries of the world"
 These were some of the statements made by Evangelist E. C. Boger last night to a large congregation in the gospel tent, Fifth avenue and Fillmore. He continued: What the world needs most in this important period of recon struction is to practice the plain teach ings of the scriptures. The words of the Master himself in Metthew T: 12, Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them If this were carried out, what changed world this would be. It would be a period of recon struction indeed"
 MT. Boger emphasized the need of every family having regular Bible studies. How very few families we find today who have family worship. Do we as ministers encourage our peO- pie as we ought to study and reverence Gods word?"
 Infidelity has failed in it's attempts to overthrow the Bible, but Mir. Boger saw arising another foe from within the church which pretends to be a friend of christianity, Higher Cri- ticism" By it's method of interpreta- ton it makes of no effect the script ures and put them on level with the myths of the ancients. Gods word clearly foretold this in Timothy 4: IA, And they shall turn their ears away from the truth and shall be turned unto fables" Let this be the motto of the church Back to the Bible" urged the evangelist.
 The subject for this evening will be presented by Evangelist l.. B. Ragsdale will the League of Nations Bring Universal Peace"

THATCHER FIRST TOWN OVER TOP
 IN LOAN DRIVE

Thatcher, Arizona, is the first town in the state to subscribe it's. quota in the Victory Liberty loan-and that be- fore the loan campaign had officially begun.
 Citizens of Thatcher met last Fri day night in a mass meeting and with out any struggle at all subscribed the towns full quota of Victory Liberty bonds, $15,000. So far as has been re- ported anywhere, this is the first com munity in the state that has gone over the top in the last loan drive, and it was done in very few minutes-al- most without any effort or heorics at all, according to those who attended the mass meeting.
 They decided it was their duty to raise the quota, and they did it with out even waiting for the time of the opening of the drive to arrive" A. G. McAlister, Victory-Loan chairman for Graham county explained in the letter he wrote The Republican about the remarkable record Thatcher has made for itself.

K|DD|ES ENJOY BIG
 EASTER FESTIVAL
 AT COUNTRY CLUB

The Easter Festival at Morley's Country Club yesterday was as big success with the grown-ups as it was with the children. Fully 2000 children took advantage of Morleys liberality, went out early and stayed late, for ev- cry moment of the long, sunny after noon was crowded with enjoyment. Over three hundred eggs were hidden and at thirty minutes after two, the prizes were being awarded to the lucky children who had searched out tbeir hiding places.
 Elwood Hegman found the golden egg and was awarded the diamond ring by the donor, Mack Gardner, with an appropriate speech. The five silver eggs were found by Suzanne Kenagy, Herbert Holcomb, Toombs Grove, A. B. Pinckton and Denwood Francis Ayers, who received, in the order mentioned the child's silver set donated by the Barrows Furniture company, wicker chair, big doll and two boys suits.
 The eight gold and silver eggs made eight children happy. Twenty five big torpedo balloons went as prizes with the green eggs, and thirty two boxes of cracker jack and box of chewing gum with the purple eggs.
 The preliminaries in the "egg roll'' and prizes of candy eggs were won by Robbie Bartol, Jack Iben, Richard Kill patrick, Hartvig Henry and Raymond Seidel. The final roll and the three pound candy egg with the solid gold ring inside it was won by Richard Kill patrick
 Mrs. Morley presided over the re- ception committee and the festivities. Assisted by Mrs. J. J. Sullivan and Mrs. Louis Zimmerman, he made it per sonal duty to see that the children en- Joyed themselves to their very limit There was free lemonade galore and Pearl Merrill, the jazz saxaphone play CT, dispensed it.

HOW 10 SAVE ON SHOES

Out of curiosity tried a pair of Neolin Soles," writes w. P. Macartney of St. Louis, and today, after fivt months of hard service I fail to notice any real signs of wear on them"
 This statement points the way to real economy in shoes. What your shoes cost, by the year, depends largely on how the soles wear and Neolin Soies do wear very long time. Moreover, they are exceedingly comfortable and waterproof scientifically made to be exactly what soles should be and so worn now by millions.
 They are available everywhere on new shoes and for re-soling. They are made by The Goodyear Tire & Rub Der Company, Akron, Ohio, who also make Wingfoot Heels, guaranteed to OutWear any other heels.

helpers had cautioned the children that they must get on the horses while the machine was standing still and stay on until it had stopped.
 A space was roped off four feet around the machine and while it was in motion the children who had not been able to get on were kept back As the merry go-round stopped, however, the children broke through and scram- bled to get on. In the tumble the little Stefan girl fell and was dragged against the cable box.
 The little girl was hurriedly removed and taken to the state hospital, where she was treated by Dr. Llewellyn, and later taken home. Both her legs were lacerated, but Dr. Llewellyn stated that while painful, the injuries were not serious.

FOR THE SAKE OF THE CITY

Let no citizen of Perth Amboy do anything that will bring dis
grace upon the city.
No matter what our feelings may be in regard to the coast guards
now bileted here, let us remember that we are law-abiding citizens
and that we can trust our city officials to see that the right thing is
done.
Mayor Dorsey and Chief of Police Burke and the aldermen have
taken the matter up with the federal authorities and they can be de-
pended upon to uphold the dignity Of Perth Amboy. Let us give them
a chance, anyway.
Perth Amboy can well afford to overlook for the time-being any
otheaded or indiscrete remarks made by some young Officers who
may have a little exaggerated opinion of their authority. We can be
charitable in this regard, now that the trouble has been long brewing
has been brought to a head. Let us be calm and await developments
In the meantime, It is to be hoped the officer in charge OF the
coast guards will show discretion and keep his men within bounds, do
ing his full part to prevent further disturbances.
This is a time for cool heads and calm judgment. There are uu-
ally two sides to an affair Of this kind and, with a thorough investt
CATION, the exact situation can be ascertained and no doubt the cause
of the trouble will be eliminated.
The thing to do now IS to show how well Perth Amboy can conduct
herself In a crisis of this kind.

/ Perhaps no barometer holds so sure

hand-maidens of war-pestilence and

National Geographic Society.
zone REPUTATION OF the Always has

ment for war Is the fact that civilized
nations are emerging from the great
est war the world has seen and avert
ing the two other consequences al
ways deemed inevitable-plague and
starvation. True, nations which rep
resent ancient civilizations also ex-
hibit the old phenomenon; hence
those peoples more highly organized
economically not only must with
stand the shock for themselves but
must help feed other lands"
The bulletin quotes from q commu-
nication to the society from Ralph A.
Graves which gives a picture of past
famines in England. In striking con-
trast to her present condition after
the terrible strain b has withstood.
The writer states:
The story of famines In England
has been a gloomy one from earliest
times. At the beginning of the eighth
century q dearth, which extended to
Ireland, drove men to cannibalism.
It was not until the reign of Aethel-
red the Unready, however, that such
a famine prevailed as no man can
remember from 1905 to 1915.
Those chroniclers who were wont
to see bad conditions at their worst
declared that half the population of
the larger island persisted. But it
must be remembered that much of
the mortality of this period was oc-
casioned by the wars between Aethel-
