"A worn-out shoe is better than

This is slogan of the Caution

younger generation of ~speedsters.
The club, which is composed en-

of the Safety First drive recently
conducted here.
Realizing that the dangers at
tending such practices as coast
ing down hill, roller skating
spinning tops, stealing rides on
wagons, and jumping ropes were
too horrible to contemplate with
out the use of proper caution,
they have drawn up a set OF very
stringent rules which the MEM
bers are pledged to support.
They read:
All coasters must have n horn.
We will drag our feet III we
coast too fast.
All our rock fights are called
of.
All u games will be played on

We won't play with matches.

HOT CAMPAIGN is NOW
ON IN CONGRESS- FIGHT
Continued from page ~

Many prominent and fluent
speakers were present, including
John w. Herbert, OF South River;
frank Appleby, of Asbury Park;
Assemblyman G. Raymond Lyons
and Timothy Neville, of Roosevelt;
Arthur Deter, of Woodbridge;
Hillpot. of Metuchen; Walter
Quackenbush, of Perth Amboy, and
Elmer Wyckoff. of New Brunswick.
Former Mayor 7. Frank Appleby,
of Asbury Park, a candidate for the
Republican congressional nomina-
ton, spoke of the predicted success
for the party and went On to state
his platform to the voters.
He spoke particularly of being in
favor of the national budget system
passed by the present Republican
congress but vetoed by the Presi-
dent. He is firmly in favor of a
tariff on goods manufactured in for
eign lands as a means of protecting
foreign manufacturers. And most
particularly he is in favor of the
New Jersey ship canal and federal
aid on New Jersey highways.
Mr.. Appleby said in part: "Ameri-
can industry, as never before, needs
announcement and protection.
Therefore 1 believe in providing just
protection to American labor and
capital by placing a tariff upon all
goods manufactured in foreign lands.
In so doing we will not only protect
American industry. but will derive
considerable revenue to help meet the
expenses of government.
1.-The New Jersey ship canal pro-
ject is of vital importance to every
business man and manufacturer In
New Jersey. A canal from the Ra-
ritan Inlet to Bordentown would be
to New Jersey what the Panama Ca
nal is to the nation. In the event of
my election, 1 will take a keen in
terest n this project with the hope of
securing federal aid and co-opera-
tion to assist New Jersey in building
this waterway. I'm also in favor of
| federal appropriations to assist New
Jersey in building and maintaining
permanent roads and highways"
John w. Herbert, of South River
ex-chairman of the state highway
commission, and candidate for the
nomination to congress from the
third district, spoke at length as &c
his intention of working in behalf o.
a deep waterway about Perth Amboy
and up the Raritan to New Bruins
wick should he be elected. He stat
ed he saw no reason why Peril
Amboy shouldn't be able to provide
a landing for ocean steamers as wei
as New York and glimpsed in thil
city a future seaport city of greai
size.
He spoke particularly of the i'm
portance of federal aid on New Jer
sey's highways. With this state un
fairly receiving unusual traffic o
freight between New York and Phil
adelphia, he saw a solution to roaC
trouble in a legislature enacted b.
the government providing for a ma;
tional highway across the state.

RELIGIOUS INFLUENCE OF
BOYS AND GIRLS CUBS

There are many interesting
things in the boys and girls
club work in this state that are
not generally known. In Wayne
County, the Buffalo Club is an
unusually live organization.
Their initiation has aroused so
much interest among the high
school asked to get in to find out
what the imitation was and to
participate in the clubs good
times. Members of this club
have read over 1000 chapters in
the Bible the past month. One
club boy read 202 chapters. This
club has its own club pin, and
has organized a circulating lib
rary of books and bulletins.
Other clubs are likewise reading
the Bible. One of the boy mem
bers of the Corliss Club in Fay
cite County, who is 40 county
prise winner, recently started
to conduct family worship. The
effort was voluntary on the
lad and is a new institution in
his home.
