 of Dr. w P. Price, the new pastor. who
 arrived with Mrs. Price Saturday and ] preached his Inaugural" sermon on Sun l day The church was filled to capacity at the morning service, and though the weather was unfavorable in the evening,
 splendid audience greeted the pastor. pr. Price comes to Bessemer from Waycross, Ga, where he has done great work, having been one of the leading pastors, and one of the most influential preachers in the entire state. He is splendid preacher, man of vigorous ac- tivity and one who breaches with deep
 sincerity and never fails to impress his hearers His sermon Sunday morning was in the form of what the church hoped to do under his ministry. He preached from the text: 'T was glad when they said unto me let us go into
 the house of the Lord" and his text was; A Church Service Worth While
 Dr Price spoke of the value of such a
 service religiousy. socially and educa-
 tionaly and called special attention to
 the value of the music. which must be
 the best: the appropriate reading of the scriptures: the cheerful and regular of fering and the instructive, timely and
 soulful gospel sermon.
 Following the sermon Dr. Price and Mrs. Price put their letters into the church, and the warm greeting given them was the most spontaneous and in-
 spiring that they had ever received any
 where Dr. Price stated, and he was pro- foundly impressed with the welcome.
 The entire service was one long to be
 remembered by Bessemer Baptists, and everyone Is of the opinion that the com
 mittee has made wise selection in se
 curing Dr. Prices services.

MataWan to Have New
Bank Building Soon
BIZ Special Correspondent.

R1 Special Correspondent.
MATAWAN, Nov. S.-From the
present outlook, Matawan will have d
new bank building before many
months pass by. Although no infor-
nation could be gained as to when the
new building for the Matawan Bank
will be started, the fact that the in
stitution has purchased one of the
most desirable sites In the borough
and as the lease on their present
banking house expired next year, 1t is
likely that a new building will be
ready for occupancy b ythat time.
The site purchased by the Matawan
Bank is that between the residence of
Attorney John p. Lloyd and Com
mercial Block and is 100 feet deep.
The lot has a frontage on Main street
of seventy-hve feet and Is now occu-
pied by @ one story building as a Pub
lice Library. The site vas purchas-
ed through the Matawan Real Estate
and Insurance Agency of the Gordon
d. White estate.
At the present time the bank Is stu
ated in the Odd Fellows building.
When the bank began business in 1916
the first days deposits amounted to
50, 900. To day they are more than
$4,000. The original surplus was
$4,000. 1t Is now $4,000. and an
undivided profit account of $1,000.

SOUTH AMBOY Nov. 5-The stage
is all set for the hottest political fight
ever staged in this city. With both
parties confident of victory. betting is
about even. There has been more
interest in this election than in some
years back. Every night for the past
three weeks has seen some sort of po-
litical meeting. In the first ward es-
pecially where the Democrats are
making a hard fight to return Rich

ties and 1t is now up to the voters.
Richard l.. Rue, the Democratic
candidate has served one term in the
council and is now a member of the
Board of Education. He served on

small majority and was succeeded by
his opponent of this year, Jacob
Shuey who now represents the first
ward on the council. Mr.. Shuey has
been very active since his election and
has accomplished a great deal. From
time to time he has brought several
matters before the council in the In
terest of the citizens he represents
and has fought hard for them. He
has been especially active against the
Public Service Railway Company and
the Public Service Gas Company. He
was very active In getting a perma-

been more or less quiet in comparison.
