BALLOT MEDIUM. GIVES
 MANY SPIRIT MESsAGEs


 \ Spirit messages thats came with great distinctness to many in the good sized audience at the Spiritual acad emy Sunday evening were given by Ers. Isabel c. Bradley of Boston, psychic and ballot medium, who has been the speaker number of times at the services at the academy
 Before putting on the blindfold with which she works under control" Mrs. Bradley spoke on the subject of Heaven and told two Interesting incl regarding how soon after death spirit communications may be re ceived. h one case she said she had 2 communication while the mortal body still lay in the coffin on the day before the funeral and there was an other instance of the relatives of a soldier in the recent war who received a spirit communication five days be- fore the cablegra1n came telling of the soldiers death.
 Assuming the blindfold and seating herself by the side of a small table filled with the ballots sent up to the platform by persons in the audience. Mrs. Bradley was at once under spirit '"controlp manifested by a marked change in voice and manner of speak ing. The messages came fast, one af- ter the other, for nearly an hour as Mrs. Bradley picked .up Xone ballot af- ter the other from the table frequently holding them LID in front of her blind folded eyes and telling the color of the envelope or. some distinctive thing about the piece of paper which she was handling.
 At times she asked people to whom she was giving messa ges to stand up in the audience and she reached a hand towards them as if better to get In touch between. the ltcontroI' and the person in life to whom she was talking. In one ease a. young woman was invited to come to the platform to tnuch her hand. and the message was given in a whisper only. As the medium changed from one message to another she freauently snapped her fingers or passed her hands with a quick motion in front of the blindfold with 9 slight exclamation.
 Among the messages given one woman was advised that drugs would not cure her head trouble mad she was t~la what school of medicine to go tC and also told that shE needed glasses 1 A man was warned Ito be careful O 2 certain person whose name wa. aiven, and Elizabeth" gave some in i lorna ton about a relative who wa insane and had been made so by bru I tality 2 number of years ago.

Of CITY
ELECTRICIAN
10 Alarms Turned in, 9 Of Them
Being False, FRANKIE Shows

During the year 1918, according to
a report from City Electrician Jay b.
FRANKIE, there were seventy alarms
of fire turned in from boxes in the
city. This record, however, does not
show the number of still alarms sent
in owe the telephones. In the year
just past there were more false
alarms turned in than in n prevt-
Gus year the report shows. During
the yea there were nine false alarms
and nearly all the accidents to APP
paratus and pedestrians occurred
while the companies were answering
false alarms.
The greatest number of fires &C.
CURED during the month of Decem-
Der. The next highest month Is April.
A list of the fires by months shows
hat in January there were four
alarms rung in; February, one;
March, four; April, eleven; May, six;
June, eight; July, even; August,
nine; September, one; October, FIVE;
November, one, and December, thir-
teen.
City Electrician FRANKIE discourages
the use of the telephone in sending
station for they hamper the firemen
in getting to the blaze, as there Is no
one at the box when the companies
arrive TO direct them to the fire and
unless the smoke or blaze Is coming
through the roof 1t is almost impos-
sible to find the fire. If it is found
necessary to send in a still alarm, the
person sending in the alarm should
Perth Amboy evening news., 1920-01-10

go to the nearest fire alarm box and
wait there until the firemen arrive
and direct them to the fire. y
The report shows that there were
considerably more fires in 1918 than
1919 and hat during the last six
years the record for fires is held by
the years 1914 and 1915 when 10S
alarms were run ins for each of
these years. In 1915 there were SIX
false alarms. In 1916 there were 100
fires; in 1917 but eighty-seven; in
1918 ninety-nine and in 1919 seven
ty. SO far this year there have been
five fires.
The city electrician urges that fire
drills should be established in the
homes the same as In the schools, as
many of the fires occur in private
residences. "In case of a sudden fire
alarm 1t is very desirable that each
one should know just what to do and
how to do it, and this can be assured
only by occasion drills. Too often
valuable time is wasted in running
around aimlessly." The following is
quoted to showNhow a home fire drill
may be carried out:
&c. r. Townsend, fire protection
engineer of the Western Union, has a
regular fire drill in his home in Edge
water, Ill. Whenever he gives the
alarm the Townsend youngster runs
directly to his father, his mother goes
to the telephone to turn in the alarm,
and the maid starts for the fire alarm
box. AS Dor az the child is in a
place of safety and the alarm turned
in, each has their precise duties as
regards the chemical fire extinguish-
er, the pail of sand and the ladder,
which are the home fre-fighting de-
vices. The alarms have sometimes
been given at night after the little
fellow was in bed, Dat he responded
promptly, and Mr.. Townsend believes
hal in case of a real fire he would
be sure of the safety of his family,
and would be able to extinguish it or
get help much more quickly than If
there vas no organized action"
Each year throughout the United
States there are thousands Of lives
lost in dwelling house fires, and a
Tome fire drill would greatly reduce
tins toll of human life, as well as the
property loss.

T. M. C. A. BOYS HAVE SUPPER
AT RECREATIONAL EVENT

About fifty boys, members of the
-four Bible classes which are being
conducted at the Y. NJ. c.. A. enjoyed
another of Mrs. Larson's ppe at
their monthly recreational meeting
last night in the banquet room and
listened to a well-arranged program
after the meal.
Secretary War; introduced C. NJ.
Peterson as POSTMASTER of the eve-
ming n before his announcements
of the program said a few words Of
welcome to the boys. The first num-
Der was a solo. THE Village Black
smith," by j. r. Jones with Frank
Foye at the piano, after which Her.
man Nielsen made a very witty short
talk announcing coming events and
a challenge from the Comrades In
termediates to the Seniors for a game
of basketball, which was Immediately
accepted
The announcement of Boys Sunday,
explained by Secretary War;, informed
the boys that they were all expected to
be in their respective churches on the
morning of Sunday, January 18th,
when their pastors have all arranged
to preach ermon appropriate for
that day.
The speaker of the evening was
Rev. Wilbert Westcott, who took for
his subject, THE Upper Trail" With
the three words. Consideration, con-
centration and conservation" as the
keynote, Rev. Mr.. Westcott very plain
ly ami often very wittily explained to
the boys the things In life which are
really worth while. All the guests
thoroughly enjoyed the talk which
even the youngest boy present fully
understood.
The evening ended with an inter-
esting reel OF moving pictures and the
invitation of Secretary Scott to every
one to stay and see the volley Ball
game.

All Kinds of BOYS.

There are boys and boys And then
there are other boys. But the Boy
Scout movement appeals to all of them
In one way or another. 1t fits them
all. 1t catches their own Instinct
whatever 1t may be and however II
differs from hat of other boys.
1t hurls them into a current that
goes up instead of down.
The Boy Tina Knows o Much.
There is the boy hat is inclined to
be a smart Aleck. He soon finds out
that hundreds of boys that he might
have looked Down on, had learned to
do a lot of things n to know a lot
of other things, as scouts. that he did
not even have a speaking acquaintance
with.
For the first time in his young life
he really felt ashamed of himself.
You see, Scouting catches the boy
from the angle of boys. The boy is
not up against a comparison with his
elders. He is among his equals in age.
He is actually doing things tina any
boy is proud to be able to do. That is
the picture that grips him.
The home, the Sunday school, the
Perth Amboy evening news., 1920-01-10

|nubaic school-fail to provide this PIC
It is unique of scouting. Home
and schools have an appeal. Scoutihs
has its own appeal. 1t ties with what
the boy thinks of as play, rather imam
as work.
The Boy That Reads Too Much.
A how may be interested in a pook,
keeping his nose continually In II. ms
mind travels with the things he reaas.
Get that boy to read the BOY o his

about things that he can do.
