Final Appeal For Funds
For Home For The Aged
A CHRISTMAS APPEAL

Christmas at the Home for the
Aged is assured for this year.
Will there be Christmas there
next year? That depends on the
generosity of the people of Perth
Amboy.
Out of budget of $4,000
needed TO run the home for
year, only $3,O9S.1S has been
raised thus far to maintain it
for another year. Unless people
who are able TO give are moved
by the Christmas spirit to make
contribution TO this worthy
institution the chances for an
other Christmas at the home for
these old people are very slim.
What will become of them if
the people of Perth Amboy fail
To raise the $4,000 more needed
only God knows.
Help ease the minds of these
old people, relieve those I'm
charge of the home from further
financial worry and incidentally
get some real Christmas joy by
giving something to the support
of the Home for the Aged. Send
your contribution to ]. r. Mad
sen, president of the home. care
of the Perth Amboy Hardware
Company.

Christmas Appeal is Made in
Behalf of This Most
Worthy Institution

A final appeal is made today for
funds by which to continue in opera
ton the Home for the Aged in Rec
tor street. To date total of
S3,096.18 has been subscribed to-
ward the quota of nearly $4,000
needed to run the home for the
period of one year. This means that
little less than half the quota must
still be provided.
The Home for the Aged Is recog-
nized as one of the most worthy
charities In the city, and the direc-
tors of the home feel that no better
Christmas gift could be made by
anyone than donating a sum, no
matter how small, to help meet the
expenses of maintaining this home
for the old folks. The home itself
is one of the most delightful places
provided for the old folk and is al
ways open for the inspection of the
public.
Contributions may be sent to the

ware Company. The names OF all

TOttenVilIe Bridge Is
Given New Impetus
Traffic Between This City and
TottenvilIe to be Surveyed
COMMITTEE Meets

TOTTENVILLE, Dec. 22:-In
order to secure some information
with regard to the vehicle and
pedestrian traffic over the ferry of
the Staten Island Rapid Transit be-
tween this place and Perth Amboy
a meeting of the bridge committee
of the South Shore Protective Asso-
citation was held last night at the
home of the chairman. owen O'Kelly
in Prince Bay. This meeting was
called by Mr.. O'Kelly on the receipt
of a letter from Chief Engineer
Clifford M. Holland, of the New York
Bridge and Tunnel Commission ask
ing for the desired information with
regard to the traffic over the sound
between New York and New Jersey
during the past year.
The committee who have eonsid-
cradle data in their possession will
meet with Chief Engineer Holland
at its office in Manhattan on We'd
nesday next week. Just why the in
formation is desired at this time has
not been made known, but it is be-
lieved that 1t is wanted for the re-
port of the commission to be made
following the survey made on the
Staten Island side of the sound for
the proposed bridge to be built be-
tween Tottenville and Perth Amboy
to the legislature when that booS
meets at Albany after the new year.
Senator Mark Allen representing
Richmond and Rockland counties in
the upper house and Assemblyman
William l.. Vaughan, representing
the south shore of Staten Island in
the assembly, were both at the meet
ing last night and spoke of the
bridge legislation program whicn
they have already outlined to be
presented at Albany following the
report of the bridge commission on
their survey.
Both are enthusiastic for the
building of the bridge between the
states of New York and New Jersey
at Tottenville and will push any
legislation for the matter that is
proposed in either house. They will
have the backing of the entire south
shore if not the entire island in the
bridge proposition. New Jersey that
passed similar legislation last year
for a survey on the Perth Amboy
side of the sound is expected to push
the matter through its legislature
this coming year.
