SOUTH AMBOY, March 9:-Wiil
there be an Old Home celebration
this year? This is the question that
is being asked quite freely about
the city al the present time. Owing
to the conditions of the country last
year 1t was not thought advisable to
have a celebration but following the
election last year when community
spirit and civic interest was at its
height the officers OF the organiza-
ton planned to call a meeting to
take steps to get the celebration
under way early in the year..
At Old Home Day South Amboy
is the center of social activity for
this section of the state. This is
the one day of the year when petty
jealousy is forgotten and the people
of South Amboy unite in one COM
mon cause. 1t Is a revival of the
old Salt Water Day at which time
South Amboy was one of the most
important communities in this Sec
ton.

complaint OF a large number of
citizens last night at the regular

street needs repairing. that nothing
had been done to the street for the

answer from the mayor was:
Nothing can be done until there is
a public Utility Commission"

cate in Freehold it was announced

OF sunny SPAIN
TitbitS That Have Won Popular
ity in America.
"Turron," Christmas OeIicacy, Is De-
cared to Be Unsurpassed in the
Line of Sweetmeats.

"Sea sleeves, each in his ink" reads
the quaint label on the little cans that
bring us one of the queer harveSts Of
the Mediterranean. The ink is the
protective fluid Of the calamare, but
the chef turns il to use as sauce.
Pen-and-ink fish is another name for
this small squid, because his inner
shell looks like quill pen. Sea
sleeves are delLcacy that one would
have to get used TO, like snailS, white
bait, and crawtish, but those who are
fond of them rather pride themselves
upon it. They can be found in all
Spanish delicateSsen shops, says a
writer in the New York Evening Post.
But Spain's masterpiece, many
think, is turrOn-a nougat incompar-
ably delicate ana rich, made IRON
nuts, fruits, and honey, its sweetness
varying somewhat with each Of the
places which are celebrated for its
manufacture: Alicante, Valencia and
Murcia. TurrOnes are in famous de-
mand at the holidays, and Spanish
groceries in New York are seldom able
to fill all their orders, for this is
Christmas sweet par excellence. An
epicure has called turrOnes "a sweet
meat delicious beyond words" The
most popular of the several kinds is
probably Turron Alicante. Others are
Turron Jijona, TurrOn Iema, and Tur-
ron MaZapan.
Hearts of palm might be thought
a tragic delicacy by the lover of trees,
| for every salad made of this aSpar-
agus-like edible means the death OF a
mountain palm. They come from AL
! giers, as we'll as from Spain, and the
/ supply seems TO hold out, but conSer-
walton does not concern those lands
! as yet.
The true globe artichoke, alcacho-
fas al natural keeps its unique flavor.
though it journeys from Spain in cans.
Ii is u portion of the immature, this
| tle-like flower, violet or white. and In
no way resembles the more proSalC
Jerusalem artichoke which looks like
a potato. ArtichokeS grow wild in the
south OF Europe, but they never nave
been cultivated here except by
wealthy epicures. and though purchas
able in season at the finer markets
our public treats them rather formally
for dish SO aIpetizing.
Down on Pearl street there is 8
large Spanish grocery where all these
Spanish allurements and many other:
may be bought, and where you viii
notice in particular the very aristO
cratic meats that do not disdain thu
tin can-partridges with truffies anr
mushrooms, stuffed hare, Cataloniar
sausageS, "Galician dinner" fowl
prepared with sweet red peppers. Ant
then the ounce paste, apricot paste
dried Malaga figs, almond cheese, ant
Spanish waters.

URGE TEACHERS
Be STRENGTHENED
ASSOCIATION SECRETARY POINTS
TO COMPARATIVELY SMALL
ENROLMENT
PLAN COMMITTEE MEETING
Ideas In a Profession Are lmmutapIe
and There Are Some Teachers In
the State Who Should Be Do
ing Something Else.

Natchitoches, La. - L. J. Alleman,
secretary of the Louisiana Teachers
Association has issued an appeal as
follows to the leaders of education In
Louisiana:
THE executive committee has met
and planned for meeting Of the L. I.
A, to be held in Alexandria, April T.
8 and 9. State Superintendent Harris
is now at work carrying out the
wishes of the executive committee by
providing distinguished speakers and
musical numbers for the program.
This will be a fine meeting in every
sense.
I'VE have not held a meeting since
1918, and it is up to US to make this
the banner year both from point Oh
enrolment and attendance. 1t is up
to US to convince the people OF Louis
lana the confidence they have placed
in US. We can do this in only one
way-to strengthen ourselves for the
nerve-racking occupation in which we
are engaged. The l.. T. A. has always
been and, l believe, will always be
great factor in the professional uplift
of our teachers. The enrolment mas
consisted in the past Of the more pro-
fessional teachers of the state-the
one out of FIVE who did not need the
good influence of the organization so
much as the other four who stayed at
home
There are now perhaps 1000 white
teachers in the state, about 1000 en-
roll annually, and perhaps 800 attend
the meetings. This is not the best
showing and believe is a reflection
on something, somebody, somewhere
II the association needs modification
LET us make the change; if the teach
ers have not the teachers spirit then
It is up to the leaders to see to il
that a change takes place there. This
should be done before it is too late.
You can do your part:
First BY securing the enrolment
of every teacher associated with you
in advance of the meeting regardless
Of whether the teacher can attend this
particular meeting or not.
Second BY encouraging as large
an attendance as possible from among
your associates.
Third. Assisting them to secure
proper accommodations in Alexan
dria.
Fourth. BY distributing from time
to time among your teachers the cir
cuIars issued from this office.
Fifth. BY impressing upon theil
young minds that ideals in a profes
sion are immutable. and that there
are some teachers in the state wh'
ought to be following some other call
ing. They are bright enough ant
well-born; but they have not the RICH
spirit, and they need help"
