RED CROSS

True to the old idea that "the
third time is the best" the Red
Cross picnic held at Liddle's Farm
near Metuchen yesterday proved to
be by far the most enjoyable of the
three given by the local chapter
this summer. Instituted for the
benefit of those children and moth
ers who seldom have the opportuni-
ty to get out into the country these
picnics have been a source of true
recreation and enjoyment to sevc-ri
scores of Perth Amboyans and
much credit is due ga Co.'S
workers in planning them.
One hundred and nve mothers
and their youngsters attended the
outing yesterday, conveyed to the
picnic grounds in the Perth Amboy
Dry Docks station wagon, the Red
Cross station wagon and the Motor
Corps ambulance, the two former
making three trips back to Perth
Amboy and the latter making two.
Twenty of the guests we're invited
by Mrs. Edith Cruise of the Com
munity House. twenty by Miss Alma
Wiederstrom and the. remainder by
the local chapter.
In charge of Mesdames J. Virgil
Shull, John Sofeld and Isabel
Gould, assisted by Mrs. Larson,
Misses Anna Cladek, Irene Hanley,
Alma Anderson and Christine An
derson, a very line program of
games were carried out and prizes
given the winners. Two consolation
prizes were offered Edward Slezeska
and John Forento, who, because of
physical deformities, were unable to
join any of the activities. Mrs. Lar
son served a hearty luncheon of
sandwiches, cake, ice cream. fruit
and milk. The guests were most
pleased with the results of the en-
tire affair.

carnival should not be a success.

the staging of this event. the size
and location should add largely in
the success of the undertaking.

mittee are being held often so that

A|D ACTION To
MAKE CITIZENS
Large Industrial Plant PIedg-
>es to Help Work of Ameri-
canization in This City.

At n of the largest industrial
plants in the city, one of its highest
officials said to Industrial Secretary
lanes A. Larcombe of the Y. NJ. c. A.
yesterday, 'if you can do anything
20 make 'honest-to-God' Americans
VI any of my men, go right ahead"
and Immediately sanctioned Mr..
~Larcombe's program promising his
aeartiest support.
The new program which has been
arranged by Secretary Larcombe is
designed to do just this. To help
the foreign born, help themselves in
becoming real American citizens of
the first water, to be accomplished
In three ways. Through the begin
ners English classes which COM
mence Thursday night, September 9;
through the advanced English
classes which have been in session
all summer and embrace courses in
citizenship as well. These classes
will be held in the Library COM
mencing Friday. September 10. The
third way Is through lectures on
current events, thus familiarizing the
men with the workings of the country
they have adopted and institutions
for which 1t stands. The usual plant
program will begin the week of Sep
ftCAdhSA dA0 SOAAoASAo u NSNoA 80
discussions and classes held under
competent leadership.
Conferences have been held by
Mr.. Larcombe with the officials of
many of the plants all of whom seem
TO be in hearty sympathy with the
Americanization program and will
lend every effort to help their men
and the, industrial program which
the Y. NJ. c. A. has arranged.
The classes at the Library and in
abe Association building will be
supervised by teachers who know
how to deal particularly with the
several branches of the work they
will teach and from whom 1t is
thought the best results can be OBJ
tanned for the pupils. Special effort
will again be made in helping the
men get their first and second
citizenship papers. and campaigns
will be conducted in the plants
calculated t o bring the privileges to
&c men employed therein with as
ifttle trouble to them as possible.
All the work of the Industrial de-
partment of the Y. NJ. C. A. is done
without reference to creed or nation
atty and at all times free of all
charge. Cooperation of the men
themselves, the plant officials and the
moral support of the citizens of the
city is all that is required to put
through a most praiseworthy and
beneficial program this winter.
