MADE MAYOR
Versteeg for Gardeners Place
in Woodbridge COMMITTEE
&c. O. P. Meets

WOODBRIDGE, July 7:-1ndica-
tons today are that Louis Neuberg,
Republican, of Sewaren, will be
chosen committeeman-at-larSe OF
| Woodbridge township to succeed
L. w. Christie, Democrat, who re-
| Gently resigned, and r. A. Versteeg,
| Republican, of Avenel, will be chos-
en- as committeeman to fill the
vacancy caused by the resignation
of William Gardner, also Republl-
can. The designations of Christie
and Gardner were received by the
committee following the commits
sion government election, WHICH
cause they supported and which
was defeated by a large vote.
The fact that these two men will
be named as members of the com
mittee was decided upon, accordins
to information today, at a meeting
of the Republican Municipal Com
mittee, representing all sections O.
the township, which was held last
, night. At this meeting sentiment
was heard from all sides and there
existed a strong feeling against
naming a Democrat to fill the va
caused by Mr.. Christie's
resignation.
1t was pointed out that Sewaren
voters had dom considerable in the
election of Mr.. Christie and in view
of this fact they Should have some
thing to say in the matter and de-
: eide upon Mr.. Neuberg, regardless
of politics. 1t is likely, therefore,
that Mr.. Neuberg will be named at
the next meeting of the committee
as the Republican are in control and
the opposition which might be OF
fered by Leon MacElroy, the Demo
cratic member who is nov acting
committeeman at large, would have
no weight.
Mr.. Versteeg, who is the choice OF
the Avenel section will in all prob
ability be named to succeed MT.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: Do you
think woman ought to stay with
a man who will drive her children
from home? My husband packed
the clothes of my twelve-year-
girl and made her take them and
go and she hasn't any father and
no people to go to. His excuse was
she did not do enough work, but
that was not it; he just doesn' t
want her and a smaller child of
mine to eat anything. He never
has spoken a good word to either
of them since we have been mar
RED, but before we were married he
was very kind to them. My heart
has been broken and my health
ruined over seeing my children mis-
treated.
Don't you think God would help
me if | should take my children and
try to make a home for them? /
believe there would be some way
for us to live Maybe my health
would get better and | could work.
My husbands mother told him he
ought not have to keep my chill
dren, but he knew I had them be-
fore we married, and it is a sure
thing | never promised to give
them up. / would not have mar
ried man who would ask me TO
give them up and now don't feel
like living with him and give my
children up.
WORRIED MOTHER.
Our man-made laws only too
often fail to protect a mother ii
your position. I believe, however,
that if you complained about your
husband to the probate court he
would be made to understand that
your children are not to be sent
away. He married you knowing
that you had children and he as
sumed the obligation of providing
for them as long as you choose to
live with him.
Lay your plans for the future be-
fore you break away from your
husband if you decide upon that
course. 1t might be that through
advertising you could secure a posi-
