Likes Outdoor Life

If | were asked to name my own
reward for a life Of honest labor, I
should ask for no more than Burkelcy
Crest. and feel I were being amply
rewarded. Once inside. it is 50 honey,
cosy, 50 artistically built and fur
as TO leave nothing more to
wish for-an elixir in itself.
Eyes, I love it, the air and the sun
shine and the chance to get outdoors.
/ love the feel of earth under me.
Years ago. I remember. when I was
playing with John Drew and motoring
out here every night after the show,
he said, Great Jehosophat, what do
you want to live away out there with
the chickens for?'

methods. 1t is the old game OF
might over right. They are AFRAID
that they may establish "a bad pre-
cedent, they prefer to pay high
priced lawyers to come before this
body and put up arguments. There
is no law in this matter, conse-
quently no necessity OF paying q
good money for lawyers. Would II
not have been much better IL the
representatives of this concern had
come before this body and frankly
said: Gentlemen. We need this prop
erty. 1t Is of great value to as
and we don't think 1t has any great
value to the city, SO in return for
the value 1t is to us. we are willing
to donate a sum to the extent OF
such value to your poor account.
We are interested in the city, and
want to take this method of showing
such interest But no. such meth
Iods are not of this concern. I say
most emphatically that they are
only Interested to the extent of the
city's value to them. 1t gives them
no concern il they ruin the values Of
poor peoples homes, or il the poor
account is depleted and the very
poor of the city suffer Tor the want
OF coal, food and proper shoes and
clothing. ~ '
81 have before me a clipping from
this mornings New YORK. Herald,
which states that the Standard Un-
foreground Gable Company have
just declared a dividend OF thirty
six per cen. to stockholders of rec-
ord. Just think of its dividends to
this extent to keep such stockhold-
ers in luxury. while this concern
cuts wakes to the hour. They today
are paying wages which are not at
all in Keeping with the cost OF liv-
ing, and on which their employees are
not able to live as people in this
free country should live. And where
are those stockholders? Do they
live in Perth Amboy? No. they live
In the millionaire district of Pitts
burgh. We hear a lot about social
ism and anarchy, and its causes.
Well. it is concerns like the Stand
ard Underground Gable Company
who pay the meanest wages and de-
mand a ten hour day, with the hard
est kind of work, and then declare
dividends sometimes to the extent
Of 100 per cent, that is the direct
cause of unrest of today. And here
we hand to this rich concern q piece
Of the city's property that Is worth
at least $4,000 without one cent of
compensation, and next year the
rich stockholders will cast another
million to its Pittsburgh stockhold-
ers, and at the expense OF the tax
payers and labor OF Perth Amboy.
Let them be fair with their en-
ployes. cut the dividends and raise
the wages that will be a true inter-
est in this city. as It will not only
benefit their employees. but the mer-
chants as well who will reap some
benefit of such living wages. then I
would feel'as though was In some
measure justified in voting to give
them this valuable right, even
though they did not see fit to give
the city a donation in return for

No price will be placed upon the
peoples but 1t is hoped that in
view of the purpose for which the
money will be employed that re-
Spouse wnl be generous. Inasmuch
a. nothing was too good for the

holds good.
Although the sale OF peoples,
significant of the fields of France
and Flanders are TO be sold next
Saturday. the day upon which to
veal them is Memorial day, the fol-
lowing Tuesday. in honor not only
of the soldier dead of the recent
