BIZ Special Correspondent.

81 SpCCtGt correspondent
SOUTH AMBOY, Nov. 1s.-Not-
w~ithstanding the numerous COM
plants made by the people living near
the city line the City Council has been
unsuccessful in compelling the Pub
lie Service Railway company to run
their cars to the end of the line. Every
day there is some difficulty about this
matter and the matter should be
brought to q show down..
The zone starts Stevens avenue
and Bordentown avenu and ends at
the city line. However at the approach
10 the "Y" at the cemetery the con-
ductor will shout AL OUT end OF the
line and the people are compelled to
walk the rest of the distance. They
will collect the fare for the entire
zone but If a protest is made they will
not make any change for this dis
lance.

though the campaign for the Third
Red Cross Roll Call had been ex-
tended for another week on Staten
Island, the district on this end of the
island that included T~ottenville,
Richmond Valley and Kreischerville,
at the close on Saturday had secured
$40 members and turned over to Mrs.
William G. WILCOX. chairman of the
roll call the sum of $S34.50, the
amount collected in the drive. AL
though this number does not come
10 the figpre secured at the Christmas
Roll Call last year, it is far ahead
of any Of the larger places on Staten
Island, where the entire membership
secured was only $500. The various
workers here in the house to house
campaign feel that they did their
share in securing the $40, the num-
Der being about one-ffth of the en-

Fair Well Attended.

The St. Tammany Fair had
numerous visitors from here
who report plenty of amusement
and good exhibits, the quality of
the womans' hand work being
specially noted as was the extra
good display of poultry and the
fine Holstein milk herd. Every.
thing was secondary however,
in the reporters mind, to the
magnificent showing of school
children, there being more than
1900 children in the parade
marching from court house
square to the fair grounds.
That parade with the splendid
exhibit of school work represent.
ing every school in the parish,
was a forceful tribute to Mr.,
