EVANGELIST REV. J. w. CARTER.
Conducting the Revival ut Methodist
Church.

To my head Il crown of gold is given,
And harp is in my hand,
l have learned the song they sing,
Whom Jesus hath set FREQ,
And the glorious walls of Heaven
still ring,
With the new born melody.
No sin. no grief, no pain
Safe in my happy home,
My fears all fled. my grief all slain,
My hour of triumph come,
Oh! friends of my mortal years,
The trusted and the true,
Ye are walking still through the
vale of tears,
But L wait to welcome you.
Do l forget? All no,
For memory's golden chain
Shall bind my hearts to the hearts
below,
Till we meet in joy again,
Each link is strong and bright
And loves Electric flame,
Flows freely down like a River Of
light,
To the world from which 1 came.
Do you mourn when another star
Shine out from the glittering sky?
DO you weep when the raging voice
of war,
Or the storm of conflict die.
Why then should your tears run
down
And your hearts be sorely riven?
Another gem in the Saviors crown,
And another soul in Heaven"

MRS. GUssIE BOWEN.

AS forecasted in last issue of this
paper, Mrs. Bowen's death occurred
on Friday a. m. about one o'clock, at
her home on lower Main street. The
funeral and burial took place Satur-
day, p. IN. from the Presbyterian
church. Her pastor. Rev. w. w. AFRO
wood, Rev. S. w. Moore, of Blue
field and Rev. Mr.. Lambert, pastor
of the Methodist church here, were
in charge of the funeral service.
Burial was made in the new ceme-
terry, beside her husband, the late
Major Thos. P. Bowen, whose death
occurred some ten years ago. Mrs.
Bowen was in the S0th year of her
age.
She leaves to mourn a mothers
loss, one son, Capt Reese t. Bowen,
two daughters, Mrs. w. G. O'Brien
and Miss Ellen Bowen, of Tazewcll.
Capt. Reese Bowen is a valued con-
ductor in the passenger service of
the N. G. w. and lives in Blueield.
One brother, Judge j. H. Stuart,
Roanoke, and one sister, Mrs. Ed
mond Sehon, of Huntington, W. Va,
are the only surviving members of
the family of her parents.
Before marriage deceased was q
Miss Stuart, of Greenbrier county,
Virginia, now West Virginia, the
family moving to Tazewelf shortly
after the civil war. During the war
she met Major Bowen, and was mar
ried there after the war, moving to
Tazewell to the home of her husband
in the Cove, where the children were
born and reared. Her father was Will
liam Robertson Stuart, and her moth
er Miss Lucy Bradford, both being
Virginians, born and reared in the
eastern part of the state.
Mrs. Bowen, during a long life,
maintained an enviable reputation as
woman of the highest integrity.
The large crowd attending her fun
eral and the profuse and beautiful
floral tributes evidenced the high es-
teem in which she was held and the
sorrow felt ut her passing. The in
fuence of this good Christian moth
Ell, so strongly felt and seen in her
children during her lifetime, will con-
tinue through the years to come.

RARITAN TOWNSHIPS LESSON

Raritan township got an awful shock a day or two ago when
2 little girl coming from the Clara Barton school was run down by
an automobile and killed. The township has no police force and
consequently no traffic regulations excepting what the state law
provides. Some of the residents seem to think that the state ought
TO provide special protection for them. 1t seems that an effort
has been made to have the state police station a man in front OF
the school at time of dismissal in order to see that the children are
protected.
But why should Raritan township expect the state to furnish
It special police protection? There is no more reason why the state
police should have a man stationed at the Clara Barton school in
Raritan township than they should have a man stationed in front
of any other school in the state.
Woodbridge township has its police force and a man is usual,
" on duty at the crossing in Fords to direct traffic. If Wood.
bridge can do this, Raritan township can at least safeguard its
school children. It certainly cannot expect the state to do it.
IT is time for Raritan township to do something in the matter of
police protection. This is something that Prosecutor Stricken has
been urging for a long time. With such a lesson as Raritan
township has had within the past few days it would seem that the
people would wake up to the realization of the true state of affairs
and spend the necessary money to maintain a few men in uni
FERNS. To cover the territory properly they should be supplied
with motorcycles. The growth of the township fully warrants
his.

CHOOSING A CITY ATTORNEY

A lively scrap seems to be shaping up over the appointment of a
city attorney to succeed Leo %Goldberger, the present Republican
incumbent. This position is of great Importance. Perth Amboy is
no mean city and the legal problems that are constantly arising
are becoming more and more complicated, This will be especially
true during the next few years when so many big things are to be
done, including the abolition of the grade crossings. In all of these
things the city needs the very best legal talent available.
Very often the city attorney has to match his wits against
some of the greatest brains in the legal profession. All of the cor
porations dealing in public utilities have a corps of highly trained
lawyers to fight their battles for them. In such a contest a mum.
cipahty is often up against it because of the inferiority of it's legal
representatives, the city attorneyship in most municipalities being
Landed out not so much for ability as for reward for party
service.
The Evening News is not favoring any one particular man
against another, but It is interested in seeing the very best talent
possible secured. The welfare of the city demands it and it is the
welfare of Perth Amboy that we are most interested in.
The Democratic party has some very good lawyers, men Of
experience who rank high in the profession and who would serve
the city well in any fight that the municipality might be engaged
IN. 1t is to be hoped that those responsible for the appointment
will look the field over carefully with the best interest of the city
in view, and choose accordingly.
