LAW ON
ANNEXATION
City Attorney GoIdberger
Points Out Legislative Ac-
ton Is Not Necessary

According to City Attorney Leo
Goldberger. who RAJ questioned this
morning following persistent rumors
thai a move vas afoot in Sewaren
to have that place annexed to Perth
Amboy, such actiUr rests entirely In
the hands If the vC.ers of that place
the Woodbridge township committee
and Il, Boar d o Aldermen of Perth
Amboy. No bill is necessary in the
legislature to authorize such action
it IS pointed out, Article 6 of the
Municipal Act known also as the
Home Rule BILL governing the ac-
ton which mus be taken by those
desiring to accomplish such a
change.
The Evening News yesterday pub
lished an article telling of reports
which have become current in Sc
warren and Woodbridge to the effect
that agitation had been started TO
annex Sewaren to Perth Amboy and
that a bill was TO be introduced in
the legislature making this action
possible. Senate Morgan +. Larson
said he hac heard In Trenton that
such a bill was in the course OF prep
aration and Assemblyman Edward j.
Peterson had received numerous in
quiries about this subject.
City Attorney Goldberger this
morning, quoting from the law. said
that in order to carry out the annex
alton sixty per cent. of the voters
In Sewafen are required to sign a
petition requesting such annexation.
This petition, after being duly veri-
fed. the attorney said, must be fav-
orably acted upon by the Wood
bridge township committee, as Sc
warren is now a part of Woodbridge
township.
After such action the petition, to-
gether with a copy of~the resolution
passed by the township COMMITTEES,
must be presented to the Perth AM
boy Board of Aldermen. In order
to effect the annexation the alder
men must act favorabiy upon the
request by a vote of two-thirds or
more. An ordinance is necessary to
make the annexation legal, the city
attorney said. When this is COM
pleted the newly annexed territory
becomes a part of the ward which
it now adjoins.

NEW YORK.-Jeritza the mar
velous!
It's the name of the biggest SEN
sation the Metropolitan Opera House
has known.
Marie Jeritza is the singer who has
literally made the Metropolitan audi
enc pen its eyes.
No longer can the tired business
man get out of going to the opera
by saying he doesn't mind the music
il only he didn't have to look at the
singers.
Jeritza is beautiful, she is young,
she is exquisitely built, she is in
telligent, she can sing, she can act,
she has great personality-and she
is married to q baron AND she is
very much in love with her husband.
This Viennese has positively shat
tered traditions. Her elasticity of
voice is edualed to her elasticity of
body. She can sing in any posi-
ton. She doesn't have to stand with
a straight front expression, eye fas-
tened on the director, as she takes
a high note. She crouches. sits
down. stoops over, lies down-it's all
the same. She is a great actress as
we'll as a phenomenal singer.
Jeritza sings Italian and the
heaviest German opera with equal
ease. Her Siggliende is as inspiring
as her Tosca. :
And when you meet her face to
face, you find this wonderful young
creature as bashful about being in
terviewed as a school girl.
Baron Pepper is the husband of
.Jeritza and he is the son of Blanche
Marchesi. the celebrated Partisan
voice teacher.
ut is nice to have America like
me-" said JeritZa, in broken English.
But what more can 1 say? / am
not temperamental-I'm Just a sim
pie woman who has a life work to
perform. I love my art and I love
my husband. I think the thing L
want to be most of all is just a nor
NAL woman.
a. want to do rs well as I can the
things nature has made it possible
for me TO do. l work very, very hard
and want to keep my mind always
open so that / can understand all
the people in the world.
ITO be a great opera singer one
must be a great actress and to be a
great actress one must understand
human beings. Acting and singing
in grand opera are one-they cannot
be ASSOCIATED if grand opera is prop
erly interpreted"

Great Pictures at Ditmas

Have you, as a picture FAM eve
come across these lines?
what a tangled web we weave
When first we practice to deceive"
This might be the text of Don't
Tell Everything" at the Ditmas
with Wallace Reid, Gloria Swanson
and Elliott Dexter in the feature
roles.
In the story the handsome Cullen
Dale, played by Mr.. Reid. Is en-
shared in a trap of his own making
when he tries to deceive the girl he
is engaged to, in some cases. and
tells her the truth in others. The
result is that she doesn't believe him
at all and when the other woman
comes into the story, is Jealous.
There is a battle of women's wits
and a self sacrificing friend (played
by Elliott Dexter) who tries to help
Marian Miss Swanson) to win out
against the intrigante, played by
Dorothy Cumming.
There is a polo game, a scene in
a luxurious mountain lodge. some
love scenes that are most entrance
ingly real, a lot of good wholesome
comedy and withal the spirit of the
out of doors. The climax Is a COM
plete surprise.
This is the type of picture that
makes you want to hunt and golf
and play polo and be an outdoor
type. If you can't or if you can
you'll enjoy the picture. Sam Wood
was the director.
A few resolutions inspired by
"Never Weaken" a thrilling laugh
terfest perpetrated in three hilarious
reels by the be-goggled and inimit-
able Harold Lloyd, also showing at
the DitmaS theatre.

Never brag before you bring

Never listen to all you hear.
Never take sugar in your poison.
Never take an air fight on a n
iron girder.
Never initiate a fly on the struc-
ture of a skyscraper.
