PRAY At BETH MORDECAI
FOR CONTINUED PEACE

Members of Congregation Beth
Mordecai at services conducted on
Armistice Day adopted the following
resolution favoring continued peace
a copy of which has been forwarded
TO President Harding:
I'VE, the Congregation Beth Nor
decai of the city of Perth Amboy,
assembled in solemn service on Ar
mistice Day, desire to voice our hear
ty approval of the efforts OF the
President and congress of our coun-
/ ~ on behalf of peace. We view
.se efforts as expressing the reso-
IN of our nation to keep it's faith
brave o who gave up their
lives In Thu recent war hoping and
believing that thereby they were
advancing tue day when nation
shall not lift up sword against ma
ton. neither shall they learn war
any more"
'~.Prayerfully do we hope that III
representatives in the Information
al Conference a t Washington shall
uphold the rue honor of our coun-
try, representing not merely its in
terests but its conscience, which de-
mands that in all our international
dealings the common interest of hu-
manity be placed above the separate

nation.
1--WE cannot forget on this solemn
occasion the ruin wrought by the
war-the loss through death of the
very flower of our young manhood,
the Gripping and disabling of thou
sands of others. the destruction of
non-combatant populations by bonn
bardment starvation and disease, the
unleashing of the forces of anarchy
in pograms, race-riots and bloody
revolutions-and we recoil with hor-
ror from the thought that, notwith-
standing these experiences. the ma
lions of the world have recommend
ed the accumulation of ornaments
for ''the next war" As a congre-
cation pledged to the service of the
God OF all the world, we demand. on
behalf of all who have faith in the
God of justice and peace, an end to
this atheistic reliance on brut force
for the adjustment of conflicting ma
tional interests, aud we charge our
government to utilize the present OPP
%portunity 20 work for universal dis
armament and the establishment OF
such an association OF nations as
shall insure international co-opera-

AUTOPSY MADE
IN MURDER CASE
South PIainfieId Mans Skull
Fractured Defendant De-
MES Murder Charge

NEW BRUNSWICK, Nov. ii
Three fractures of the skull, two on
the top of the head and one at the
base of the brain, were discovered
by. County Physician John l.. Suy-
dam as the result of the autopsy
performed Saturday afternoon on
the body of John Wasnik, the former
Perth Amboy resident who was
found dead by the side of the Oak
Tree road near South Plainfield at
IL o'clock Thursday night.
Initial belief that death was due
to an automobile accident in which
the man had suffered the injuries
was later followed by the belief that
the case was one of murder and the
autopsy has strengthened the con-
viction of County Detective Ferd A.
David that Wasnik really was MUIR
dered. Joe Bolocave, arrested in
connection with the case, is still
held in custody and vas questioned
closely on Saturday by David. Min
ute examination, however, has so far
failed to shake the testimony offered
by the prisoner, which is to the eff
feet that while there was "a quarrel
between them on the night of the
death, fists were the only weapons
employed by either man.
~ SliiCl cAdIilIldlioll VI TIC PlASOh-
err had previously shown that a dis
pute arose about an hour before the
death of Wasnik. Caused by a debt
of IS the argument led to a fight,
Bolocave said, but only fists were
used. The marks on the body of the
man show conclusively hal some
heavy instrument must have been
used to infiict the wounds.
A hammer and Ratchet found at
the home of Bolocave by the South
Plainfield police is thought to bear
blood stains and will be analysed in
an attempt to learn if the SUPPOSE
ton is correct.
Meanwhile Bolocave Is held for
the grand jury.
Joseph Zidallo, a boarder in the
home of Joseph Bolocave, was ar
rested today and held under $4,000
bail as a material witness in the
case. Other persons supposed to
know something of the murder are
also being rounded UP.

Twenty years ago the farmer con-
sidered dugout or tumbled0wn shack
sufficient protection and shelter for
himself and family. The work OF the
farm was more important by far than
the comfort of the folks. Farm homes
were unknown quantities, given little
thought and little attention. But times
have changed. Today the farm de-
mands attention because Of changing
conditions. Certain important factors
are responsible for this change.
, In the first place The children rose
up In rebellion because of the mo-
notony and drudgery which faced them
day In and day out. The silent house
wife, carrying the burdens of an Achil-
les on her shoulders, finally got tired.
The two combined and forced changes
which are now the rule rather than
the exception. They demanded and
got new, comfortable, coy homes with
modern convenienees and other de-
lights that make homes worth while.
Faced by an exodus of the children

as soon as they reached their major
ity the farmer began to give the ques-
tion of home comforts some serious
thought. The barn was not the most
important building. Home came first.
That Is why we have homes like
the one shown here on many farms
in the country. There Is something
about this charming house that APP
peals to everyone. II radiates COM
fort, spaciousness, cheer and sstisfac-
hon. There Is the large roomy porch
with Its protecting screens, wonder
full retreat on the warm days, where
the family can rest after the day in

frame. The foundation Is brick with
stucco on the first story and, shingles

the side driveway Is a sleeping porch

SUPERSTITION or WHITE EGG
Hard to Account for Widespread Fal.
lacy That the Brown Shell Con-
taina inferior Product.

OF all the food superstitions that
cause high prices-and there are
many the white egg superstition is
pointed out by c. Houston Goudiss,
editor of the Forecast Magazine, as one
Of the most curious.
In nearly every section of the
country" says Mr. Goudlss, there Is
q difference In the price between the
brown and the white egg. On a mo-
tor trip through New Jersey recently
l noticed that white eggs were bring
ing as high as p cents per dozen
more than brown eggs. Why. the
gods, who play with our fears and
prejudices and laugh at us, only know.
The white egg costs no more to pro-
duce than the brown EGG. Exactly the
same feed Is used to produce both eggs.
Both are equal In food value. The only
reason for a difference in price is a
greater demand on the part Of house
wives for the white egg. once heard
a Jewish housewife say It was more
sanitary and ON another occasion an
American with no religious leaning In
formed me that the white egg was
better. egg. even the shell felt nicer.
Producers and dealers have been quick
to capitalize this superstition.
''Curiously enough, in some Of the
large cities Of the country, brown eggs
bring a higher price than do white
ones. have heard this explained In
these cities with the sage information
that the brown egg Is stronger" and
more 'mesty' than the white egg"
