Matawan Women
Toldof Peace Move

-MATAWAN. Oct. 23.-The first
open meeting of the Matawan Wom-
ans Club for the year 1923 was held
Monday afternoon in the high school
parlors. A large number of MEM
bers were present to hear Miss
Florence Halsey, Highland Park, dis
cuss the subject. "World Peace" The
meeting was held under the auspices
of the civic department of which
Mrs. Frank Howard Lloyd is the
chairman. Mrs. Lloyd presided.
Miss Halsey in a very interesting
and entertaining manner went deep
~ into the world peace question
and step by step took the women
from the time world peace was first
discussed up to the present. She
pointed out two important items
that every woman should inform
herself upon. First of these was the
need of the women keeping in touch
with the situation in all the
tries of the world and the need of
keeping in touch at all tines with
the politicians at home and know
ing their peace programs.
Much interest is being taken at the
present time in the ru1nmage sale
which is being held by the club in
the store recently vacated at the
corner of Main and Little street. The
sale will continue all week, the
clerks being in attendance from $50
until 1880 o'clock in the morning
and from 2 in the afternoon until
. o'clock at night. Buying was brisk
it was said. yesterday.
The Matawan Club is one of the
most active in Monmouth County
