WANT KEYP0RT
BEAUTY SPOT.
Mayor Mason CommendS
Those Who Improve Prop
erty--Council Meets.

fBy Evening News CorrespJndent.l
KEYPORT, March 30.--At the
regular meeting Of the mayor and
council held last Monday night May
or Mason commended a number Of
the citizens of the borough who
have recently taken down their
fences and who are otherwise beau
tifying their property. He urged all
the residents to take a pride in the
borough and endeavor to make il as
attractive as possible. He stated
that as the State Highway Depart
ment had made keyport a link in
the state Highway he felt that those
who live in Keyport should do
everything in their power TO make
the borough a show place along the
route.
A communication from the State
Highway Department was read by
Miss Elliott, the borough clerk,
which stated that it was now ready
to proceed with the repaving of
Front street and asked that the bor-
ough commence its part of the work
Immediately. A communication was
likewise read from the assessment
commissioners urging similar action.
The matter was discussed at length
and a motion was made and unan-
imously carried that the several de-
partments of the borough having
charge of the work should proceed
at once to carry out the work as
outlined IN the plans and specifica-
tions Of the State Highway Depart
ment.
Vouchers were passed covering
the payment for the land acquired
for the widening of Spring street
and the borough engineer was di-
rected to complete the work at once.
The clerk and attorney were di-
rected to prepare and have served
notices covering all sidewalks not
laid in accordance with the ordi-
nance passed last summer. This
ordinance covered Cedar, Walnut,
Spring, Oak and Pine streets. These
notices to give the property owners
thirty days time and if the work is
not done then it will be done by the
borough and the cost assessed
against the property.
The borough engineer was direc-
ted to grade Walling terrace in ac-
cordance with the recent survey as
soon as he had completed the work
| on Spring street. The engineer was
also directed to place gravel on
Fifth street in order to stop the flow
of water across the property of one
of the nearby residents there.
IHo DOiOuBH tHSlHeeT complained
| of certain residents throwing refuse
in the cutters in front of their
| premises. He was directed to see
that the same was stopped. The
| question of the borough collecting
at certain intervals all rubbish
| placed on curbing was discussed at
| length and it was the opinion that
/ the same should be done at frequent
| intervals.
The clerk was directed to request
| c. c. Galbraith & Sons to refrain
| from throwing refuse from their
| plant on one of the vacant lots on
the north side of Front street or TO
see that the same was properly COW
cred.
The mayor called the attention OF
the police committee to the fact that
a crowd of boys congregated near
| First and Cedar streets and spent
most of the time using vile Ian
guage to the great discomfort of the
nearby residents.

TWO CRUC|F|ED
IN NEW MEXICO
Religious Sect in Fearful Ger
emony in Observance of
Good Friday-HoIy Week.

ALBUQUERQUE. N. NJ. March
S0-Two men were crucified at the
Penitente village of Abiquiu in
northern New Mexico, Good Friday,
in observance of Holy Week in
rites performed by members of the
Hermanos de Luz, Brothers of
Light. a religious order. according
to B. j. Norfeldt and Gustave Bau-
mann. artists of Santa Fe. n. NJ,
who have arrived here.
Norfeldt and Baumann say they
were members of a party of two
dozen tourists who witnessed the
crucifixion and fiagellation ceremo-
nies connected with T..
For more than a half hour. the
artists say the two human sacrifices
were tied to huge wooden crosses,
at the end of which time they were
taken down bleeding and exhaust
ed. The condition of the men is
said to be serious and their recov-
cry in doubt. The Penitentes, as
the Hermonas de Luz are more
commonly known. are Indians with
Mexican mixture. The order has
many followers in remote villages
of this state.
The principles and practices are
said to have come from Italy
through Spain and Mexico.
1.-The Penitentes formed in a long
procession" said Mr.. Norfeldt,
"and marching to slow weird mu-
sic, beat themselves with thorn
whips. soaked in brine water to
wound themselves and make their
wounds smart. One man carried a
large wooden cross under the
weight of which he fell exhausted.
The procession ended with the erec-
ton of two crosses with members
of the order tied TO them"
1t is considered an honor to be
selected for cruoifixion.

! GODS which are favor
ably known to coming
= nublic will sell more

Is public Will sell moio
quickly than goods which are
unknown, for the same reason
that the most popular girl IN
town generally gets her dance
program filled in advance.
From the standpoint OF abb
stract justice it may be inde-
fensible, but there is nothing
very mysterious about it. She
has a certain reputation as a
charming companion - and
there you are.
As a matter of fact, almost
everything nowadays Is sold
upon reputation.
The days have gone by when
the consumer had the oppor-
tunity or the ability to judge
values at first hand. Once he
took his wheat to the mill and
received it back in the form
of flour; he sheared his own
sheep, wove the fabric on his
own loom, and carried the fab
ric to the tailor; he selected
the calfskins which went into
his boots and watched every
step of their manufacture.
He got value for his money
because he knew values.
He bought upon confidence,
but it was confidence in his
own ability to judge materials
and workmanship.
Times have changed, and
men and women have changed
with them. People still buy
upon confidence, for without
confidence business would
cease, but it is confidence in
the reputation of the seller.
They have no time to test
materials or workmanship, and
very seldom have they the
ability to do so.
Therefore people accept the
goods upon the reputation of
the manufacturer, or the deal
er. or both, and never think of
stopping to weigh the contents
Of package or test the COM
position of fabric. Imagine
what would happen to all our
stores if they did!
Now advertising is simply a
means for creating regulations
and keeping them alive.
It adds nothing to the intrin-
sic merit of a product, but it
Toes add immeasurably to its
Inability.
Every storekeeper knows the
ference between an organ
ked group of regular custom
ers and casual sidewalk trade
which drifts in and out again.
There is the same difference
between the organized desire
for a nationally advertised
product and the hit-or-miss ac-
ceptance of something whose
antecedents are unknown.
It is true that goods are often
sold upon the reputation of the
retailer alone.
There is no question as to
that.
But there is equally no ques-
tion that the reputation of the
retailer plus the reputation of
nationally known manufac-
turer will sell goods faster
than the reputation of either
standing alone.
Because this is true, Jadverti-
sing is. a great instrument of,
economy. 1t enables mer-
chants and manufacturers to
turn their stocks quickly, and
thus has grown up the adage,
"Quick sales and small pro-
fits.''
During the present period of
adjustmept,swhe the public is
endeavoring to make every
dollar do double duty, the
economic value of advertising
is being impressed upon the
reader, the merchant and the
! manufacturer. And advertis-
)ing's advantage is mutual
otherwise it would not have
grown to be the greatest COM
mercial force in the world to-
