Ambassador Harvey as
a Biblical Student
PRIEST SAYS HE IS


OUTSIDE TBE. THREE. MILE LIMIT. I"
From Lon ION Newspaper we take
the following.
AMBASSADOR Harve, s declaration at
the Auth RS Club in London to the
effect (as rel orted here) that religious
literature does not credit women with
the possession of souls, is AIKEN up
lbs Fathe Gabriel Oissani, Professor
LOT Ecclesiastical Literature in St.
Joseph's Seminary. New York. The
Professor gives Mr.. Harvey credit
f rhaving attempted to amuse rather
than instruct his audience, but in
sists that in the field OF Biblical ex-
egesis Mr.. Harvey is undoubtedly
We much at sea-" He asserts that
Mr.. Harvey is mistaken in his as
sulnp ion that because the Bible re-
fers to the formation OF woman from
the rib of a man it therefore teaches
her inferi rity. Ii woman is inferior
to inan just because she was made
of the rib of man, it would follow that
man is inferior to clay because he
was made of CLAY. 1t was the immortal
soul infused into both man and wo-
man that made them essentially
equal.

many deputized citizens, Wednesday

wav to Manasquan. They entered the
Souan house. ATM ain and Broad street,
the proprietor Of which is James

morning that sufficient evidence had
been secured and that liquor had been
purchased by members Of the raidlng
party lust previous to the raid. NO
iionor Of any kind was found, however,
altho many bottles which, officials
said. gave evidence that liquor had
been sold recently, we're found on the
premises. :.
James e. Cook on Main street, known
as the Manasquan garage. Here the
raiders found two 25-gallon stills, one
in operation and two barrels of mash.

Forest conservation, particularly in

instances to actual burning of the

destruction OF trees for a certain pc

PIGSkIN WARRIORS TO
BATTLE HERE FRIDAY
BLAKELY WILL MEET DAW-
SON, AND GREAT GAME Elk
PECTED. SHELLMAN SOON.

The Dawson Hi football team en-
joyed an off-day Friday, the game
scheduled with Americas A. and NJ.
school on that date having been can
celled at the last minute. The MAORI
ty of the players, however, journeyed
over to Shellman to witness the high
school team there wallop Blakely Hi
by a score of % to 0.
The Shellman team outplayed the
visitors from the start. Three touch
downs we're chalked up by the local
eleven in The early stages of the game,
after which the Early county lads
stiffened up and put up better brand
of football
1t is interesting to note that Daw-
son Hi will play both Of these teams
within a short period Of time. Blakely
will play here Friday, and on Novem-
Der 9th Shellman Hi will bring her
pigskin warriors to Baldwin park in
an attempt to smash the local line.
All dope points to two victories for
Dawson. Blakely must put up great
deal better defensive if she hopes to
stop the speedy backs of the local
squad, while Shellman must develop
some aerial work if she hopes to cross
Dawson's goal, as it is not believed
they can penetrate the line.
1t is regretted that another game
with Albany could not be staged here
in an attempt to even up matters Tor
the disastrous defeat handed Dawson
at the opening of the season. The To-
cal eleven have improved 100 per cent
since that game, and another game
with Albany would attract large
crowd here to witness the scrap.
