PAVING WORK
At STANSTILL
In Report Owing to Request
of Jersey Central to Re-
move Trolley Tracks

KEYPORT. Aug. 20.-The pro-
posed plan of paving First street. the
cost of which was to have been
s%houldered by the property n
has come to a standstill for the
present owing to the fact that the
Jersey Central Traction Company is
seeking permission to remove it's
tracks within the borough limits. The
company agrees to put the road in
good condition wherever the rails
are removed and the superintendent
of the company, William H. Hitch
cock, has been asked to attend the
next meeting of the council on Mon
day evening, August 81, and furnish
any desired information to the
board.
Should the property owners pay
the cost of concreting the borough
would assist to the amount of ap-
proximately one-quarter of the cost,
this including the street intersec-
tions and the Beach Park property.
Another plan under consideration
Is the taking over of First street by
the Board of Freeholders as a more
direct and less congested route to
keansburg.
Many property owners who were
against the concfetlnS OF the street
mainly because they felt hat the
cost Of %concreting between the troll
ley rails should be borne by the
company. which had for some time
previously been operating at a de-
cided loss and could assume the ex-
pense, have now stated their wills
ingness to assume their share of the
cost u the matter is attended to by
the residents and not by the free
holders.
AT any rate the street is in a bad
condition and some improvement is
necessary and it is expected that
the plan of improvement will be de-
eIded upon Immediately upon the
removal of the tracks which so long
as they are to be removed should
be done first.

All Due to Christianity.

We live in the midst of blessings
till we are utterly insenslble of their
greatness. and Of the source from
which they flow. We speak of our
civilization, our arts, our freedom, our
laws, and forget entirely how large a
share of all is due to Christianity.
Blot Christianity out of the page of
mans history, and what would his
laws have been?-what his civilian.
ton? Christianity is mixed IN with
our very being and our daily life !:
there Is not familiar object round
us which does not wear its mark. not
being or thing which does not
wear different aspect, because the
iisnt OIL christian hope is on it, not
law which does not owe its truth
ana gentleness to Christianity. NOT n
custom which cannot be traced in nil
Its holy and healthful parts, to the
