JERSEY, OH!

we come from 1alr New Jersey,
Where blows the ocean breeze;
A garden land of plenty,
Rivers, hills and trees.
For well our dear New Jersey
Has blessed our fellow man,
To sing its praise and glory
We will do all we can.
We're the Woman's Club of Penns
Grove,
And proud to be in line
With the general federation,
The best women of our time
The occasion is our luncheon,
The end of our Club year.
We're proud of Penns Grove Woman
Club,
So let US give a cheer
Chorus.
Jersey, ch! Jersey, oh!
Jersey women We,
We're loyal to Penns Grove,
As all Of you can see.
Penns Grove, oh! Penns Grove, oh
PennS Grove aims to be
INCEST place you can live
In all this broad Countrie.
If we say "A Good Woman in this
utilitarian age, instantly one demands
Good for WHAT" Mrs. Edgard r.
Allen told some reasons for Woman's
pride
Miss Rena B. Leap, President, gave
some echoes from the State Con-
vention OF Woman's Clubs in Allan
tic City, May 4th. The most promi
nent was the speech of Gov Sllzer,
in which he failed to speak on the
topic given him and asked an unfair
question as to how many had not seen
the prohibition violated. About forty
per cent stood up.
He classed those who did not stand
as having violated or seen it violated.
The voting was unfair because there
were many there who were not dele
gates, many who will not stand nor
raise their hand in a political as well
as a religious meeting because they do
rot approve of such actions.
The Governor spoke against the ne Y
divorce law passed by the last leglsla-
ture. allowing a divorce in six months
on the charge of cruelty. He hoped
New Jersey would not become apother
Reno.
She also heard addresses on Gre
storing the American Home as an
economic center and the "The Social
Welfare Of Children in Relation to
Health.
Mrs. Sutton said: There are some
new faces at our luncheon and new
names on our rostrum. Even older
members are asked, "What has the
Woman's Club accomplished" ;" Miss
Sara H. Thompson gave some ancient
history.
To grow and expand is one of the
WAYS to have d successful club. 10
have an incentive for the future, TO
make our meetings so interesting that
each member will feel that something
is lost if a meeting is missed. we
need new thoughts, new ideas. May
each of us help our mite for the
future success to the Club. Mrs.
Iyde S. Pratt spoke of history IN the
making.
A piano solo was given by Mrs
Charles ComeIford.
We stagnate if we contest with our
! selves. We need to know what other
women and other clubs are dong.
Comparison with other persons often
help our own growth.
Mrs. John NJ. Summerill spoke on
"Weighed in the Balance With Other
Woman's Clubs"

Leaves Fall" was sung by Mrs. Will

Miss Grace Wood was unfortunate
last week in having her watch picked
up alongside where she was sitting
on a ferry boat going across to Viii

suspiciously thru it all. The captain
of the boat gave him a cursory search

VOTE ON BONDS

Capitol Heights Citizens Hold
ing Second Election-FKst
Resulted in Tie.

Residents of Capitol Heights, Nd.
will visit the ballot box today and
decide whether or not they will float
bond issue of $13,500 to pay for
the construction of three bridges to
replace those washed away in the
March floods. Today will be the Sec
ond time within three months a gen.
eral ballot will be taken on. the
question.
In May there were 2o6 votes cast
on the bond issue subject and after
both sides had claimed victory by
two votes 1t was found they were
equally divided. A decision is ex-
pected to be reached today. The
polls will be open from Z a. m. to
8 p. m.
Speeches favoring the bond issue
were made at mass meeting held
last night as a last minute spur to
the residents to vote for the raising
of the money. Town Corporation
Counsel J. C.. MacLeran and Mayor
George Finger were the principal
speakers.
Under its charter the town is per-
mittel to float a bond issue not ex-
ceeding $4,000. 1t is estimated
that the bond issue would mean be-
tween so cents and IS cents in taxes
each year for each lot in the town.

tional, he said, but would be drawn
from the present taxes for the estab-
Iishment of a sinking fund.
