REPUBLICANS TO MEET
AT WARREN KINGS

A meeting of Republican leaders,
county and city committeeman, can
didates, and specially invited guests,
is being held this afternoon at the
home of Warren C. King, at Raritan,
near Bound Brook, from 2 until 5
O'Clock. Several prominent Repub-
licans from Perth Amboy have
planned to attend and it is expected
that the congressional candidates
viii be on hand. The affair is in the
form OF an informal get together"
TO rthe purpose of becoming better
acquainted with local conditions and
Formulating plans for the successful
conduct of this campaign
Perth Amboy evening news., 1920-09-11

VIII the votes be more in the small
town, according to the percentage
of population than the cities
The answer to this question seems to
be yes. The reason for this is: In
the small towns and the rural dis
tricts registering is done by a house
to house canvass of the poll clerks,
while in the cities the women have
to take time to go to the register
ing place in order to be able to vote.
1t is claimed that women who regis
ter when the clerk calls at the
kitchen door. will outnumber those
who have to leave their work and
walk to the registration place.
Although at the time the women
register they may not intend to vote
and many who live in the city do not
intend to vote, will not take the
trouble to register, while their coun-
fry or small town sister will rave
registered and as the campaign
wakes warm will decide to vote,
while those in the city who did not
register will find themselves locked
out on election day. Therefore one
of the questions is how to impress
on the city women the necessity of
registering on registration day.
A near as can be estimated at the
present time by those VINO nave
considered the subject of women
vote, it is conceded that The majority
of the women who can be depended
upon to vote will be those between
the ages of twenty-one and thirty,
those over this age, it is thought,
will be few and far between. Also
it lie figured that the greatest
number of votes will be cast by wo-
men who are earning their W liv-
ing in offices, factories DR. stores. 1t
is believed that the average women
who live at home will not bother
much with political matters.
However, when all is said and
done, and when the leaders of the
political organizations have consid-
cred and re-considered the matter,
the women's vote still remains a big
"X'-the unknown quantity.

A splendid lot of fun, singing and
dancing, and an unusually elaborate

reputation for delivering the goods

assurance that his now famous

GODS TWO LAWS

Las night at the Gospel Tent
Pastor Owen made a strong present.
alton of the binding claims of the
ten 'mmandments on christians to-
day. He read numerous extracts
from founders of present evangelical
churches to prove that the idea that
Gods law was abolished at the cross
is modern invention of those pas
tors and teachers who would avoid
the necessity Of keeping all of Gods
commandments. He clearly showed
that there were two sets of laws
given % Israel at Sinai One of these
he said is a moral law which can
never be abolished, the other a law
of rites and ceremonies which pass
ed away at the cross.
The subject tonight will be, "why
Christians Should Keep the Seventh
Day of the Week" This is a cues
tion that should prove of great in
terest to all Christians as we find
the vast majority of the people at
the yresent time keepifg the first
day 81 the week.
