"Own Your Own Home
Slogan Effective Here

The Gown Your Own Home"
slogan which is operating so effec-
lively throughout the country is
finding an unusual response in this
town. Seldom in the history of
the place have so many transfers
of real estate been made, titles
passing from owners to former
renters who are in increasingly
large numbers buying their own
homes.
Building operations are likewise
numerous. T. F. Manns, DR.. C. C.
Palmer and Frederick Ritz are
building handsome homes on Park
Place; George Griffin on South
College Ave-, Clifford Willis on
Main St., Charles Strahorn on
Amstel Ave. and the Greater New
ark Development Co. on Latta ave.
a house and bungalow; DC. Rose
a handsome residence on South
College Avenue, are a few of
the buildings projects now under
way.
S. M. Donnell, agent, reports the
sale yesterday of a frame dwelling
on West Delaware Ave-, and a lot
on Amstel Ave. to Charles A.
Knots.

ABLY others from nelgnDOrlng
towns. The line will start prompt
ly at 2 o'clock and will follow this
route: Academy to Main to East
Main, countermarch to Chapel, to
Cleveland Avenue, to North Col
loge, to West Main countermarch
on Main to Academy grounds
where memorial exercises will take
place. Earl Dawson, Phineas Nor
ris and Dean Winifred j. Robin
son were named a committee to
arrange for this feature.
At this meeting attention was
called to the fact that 3 young men
whose relatives reside in Newark
gave their lives in the great strug-
gle, J. Allison O'Daniel, Edwin
Reside and Thomas Cooper. An
unusual number of local men were
decorated for valor and for distin-
guished service and many gave in
valuable service for which no pub
lie recognition will ever be given
except on such occasions as this.
No more fitting time than the pres
ent to give this recognition was
the sentiment of last nights meet
ing.
This is EverybOdy's Celebration!
Everybody is invited without
further notice to participate and
to cooperate. HousehOlders along
the route of the march are asked
to display flags, Red Cross emblems
or any form of decoration that may
be available. Owners of machines
or trucks are asked to lend same
to convey the veterans and the
little school children for whom the
journey would be too much. The
industrial plants and the schools
have agreed to close down at noon
and to arrange for the blowing of
whistles and the ringing Of bells
at the hour agreed upon to start
the parade. Fancy costumes or
|SFSl y uay SdlD III dliSpdI eICleS-
floats or flags are in order, just as
the marcher pleases so long as
he joins the crowd. The fear was
expressed by one facetious repre-,
sentative last night that "the spec,
tators would have to be imported
if everybody in Newark takes part
in the Parade" The committee is
willing to risk that contingency.
