PUBLIC OPINION
HOME FOR THE AGED
EDITOR EVENING NEWS

May we, through the courtesy of
the Perth Amboy Evening News,
bring to the attention of the people
of Perth Amboy a matter which we
think needs and deserves their con-
~sideration. This should appeal to
those who can not put aside for a
moment the rush of every day mat
ters and give a little thought, time
and money to the consideration Of
those old people who, perhaps,
through no fault of their own, are
now in need of a home to spend
their declining years. We refer to
the Home for the Aged.
We believe that most people of
Perth Amboy and vicinity know
there is a Home for the Aged, and
that it is located at 263 Rector ST.,
but beyond that they do not know
very much. We desire to acquaint
the public with some of the details
of this Home and have taken this
opportunity to place the facts before
YOU. The Home for the Aged Is an
incorporated body, was started in q
very small way about 1908, n
through the hard efforts of a very
small group of faithful workers has
gradually grown until today they
own and occupy the present property

their funerals are held in the
school,"
Ward brought back the first ex-
PLANTATION that has been advanced
for Amundsen's decision to hop off
from Wainwright, instead of Point
Barrow, as originally planned.
Some people Think said Ward,
'that it was because Wainwright is
on the same meridian as S~pitzberg-
en-, his misunderstanding 1t possi-
BILE for him to fly absolutely straight
due north and then due south,
straddling the meridian.
The real reason, in my opinion, IL
the fact that flying from Wainwright
will give him from so to 20 miles of
grace from death. By taking a
northeasterly course he can follow
the coast until he reaches Point Bar
rowland thus have an opportunity
to land safely if engine trouble de-
velops early"
If Amundsen is successful, news
will be flashed Immediately from
Spitzbergen. But the world will not
know for two months and more if
he falls and is killed.
