CIVIC DINNER
Reservations Coming in Daily
and Success Assured

Reservations for the civic dinner OF
the Board of Trade to be held in the
New Packer House on Monday night
are now being received at the Board
OF Trade rooms. There is a great de-
mand for plates, and almost all of
these so far received are for man and
wife. From the present outlook it
would seem as If the dinner will be
one of the most successful of all din
ners ever held by the organization.
The ballots on the question of
the Board of Trade to Chamber of
Commerce are now being received n
a member of the committee said today
that from the appearance of ballot
ing at this time it looks as If the vote
would be almost unanimous for the
changing Of the name.
Sunday has been designated as
Civic Day and throughout the many
churches In the city the ministers
and priests will bring out the need of
a Greater Perth Amboy. Already
soma Of the pastors have discussed
the matter at meetings in their
churches and have urged their people
to get behind the Greater Perth Am
boy movement of the Board of Trade
and on Civic Sunday the need of a
Greater Perth Amboy will be shown
in almost all the pulpits IN the city.
]. is realized by the ministers that
reforms that the churches are de-
handing, the cooperation of a live
commercial organization Is needed,
and for this reason they are backing
up the Board of Trade in its MEM
bership campaign and in this way
aiding in the Greater Perth Amboy
movement.
