SCHOOL BOARD
Six Candidates in Keyport-
Three Will be Elected at
TomorroW's Election

KEYPORT, Feb. 12:-The annual
school election will be held in the
high school tomorrow night at 1880
o'clock. Prior to the election the
clerk will read the annual report.
The three members of the board
whose terms expire are the clerk,
Rufus 0. Walling, Joseph D. Bedle
and Phelps Cherry, all candidates for
reelection having fled their petitions.
Three new candidates are also in
the field, DR.. o. c. Bogardus, Chester
A. Walling and Frank Cottrell. In
every instance each candidate has a
wide following and a huge vote is ex-
pected. Messrs. Walling, Bedle and
Cherry have served on the board for
many years and have put a great
deal Of time on the school problems.
The three new candidates have the
backing Of many, including the fire.
men who, It is expected, will support
Cottren and Walling particularly,
both being members of fire compa-
MES of the borough. At the recent
banquet given by the Hook & Ladder
Company to the Lincoln company
both companies pledged their sup
port to the ffremen candidates.
Messrs. Walling, Bedle and Cherry
r asking for another term on the
basis of their long experience and
successful operation of the school
system. They claim that the build
ing of a new high school has not
been considered by them since the
big vote against it last year and that
if elected they will pledge their ef-
forts in operating the best school
system possible with the available
school funds.
Messrs. Bogardus, Cottrell and
Walling are asking a chance to show
their interest in the school by being
elected. They are emphatic in stat
ing that they are against a new high
school building at this time and that
if more room is needed they favor
the addition of rooms to both the
East and West Keyport schools.
However at this time the school
building question is not the issue and
it remains TO be seen which candi-
dates have the strongest backing,
and 1t is to be expected that which
aver candidate is elected will put
forth his best efforts in the interest
Of the school system.

the liver in a soothing, healing way.
When the liver and bowels are per-
forming their natural functions, away
goes indigestion and stomach troubles.
Have you a bad taste, coated tongue,
poor appetite. a lazy. don't-care feeling,
no ambition or energy, trouble with

the substitute for calomel.

supporting the front part are fast

than the shelf, as all the parts may
be turned up on the lathe
Perth Amboy evening news., 1923-02-12

The holder consists of eight
spindles equally spaced Six of
these spindles are fastened into the
base, but do not extend into the
top, the latter merely resting upon
them. The other two spindles ex-
tend into both top and bottom, but
are fastened only into the top. In
this way the top is held in position
without slipping around. The ball
of yarn is placed inside the spindles
and the end is pulled through.
AS to the design of the turned
parts, that is left to choice. The
limits in size are given. and that is
all that is necessary.
