WORDS WELL o

Mayor Dorsey's complimentary remarks before the Perth Amboy
battalion of the state militia reserve Tuesday night were well de-
served. The sentiment of the entire city was expressed. Perth Am
boy can never forget the valuable service rendered the city at the time
of the Morgan explosion service that justified the organization OF
The militia reserves many times over.

Perth Amboy certainly has reason to feel grateful to the members
of the militia reserve and it is to be hoped that as the period OF enlist
ment draws to a close steps will be taken to make it a permanent or
Qanization. Particularly during such unsettled times as those through
which the world is now passing, following the greatest war In all his
tory, is it desirable to keep this excellent fighting force intact and
ready for any emergency as one of the safeguards of the city.

he springs, but April brings a salve for all III bruises; the wintry
blast is aueered at last and all the world enthuses. The ancient guys

and song, a caution to all sprinters. The man Of aches whose groan-

that comes from some blue distance. The chronic crouch forsakes
