following record:
Six bigamous marriages, six stand

He is middle-aged, sturdy of figure

As matter of fact. he is car
penter.
1t is a surprise TO find such a ma
in jail, and a double surprise to lear
that he is the prisoner who confessc
an amazing record of love piracy an
bigamous marriages.
But his new angle on the marriag
game of respect-seeking made him

DISTRICT GOVERNOR GIVES
ROTARIANS INSPIRING TALK

Perth Amboy Rotarians had as
their guest at their weekly luncheon
at the New Packer House at noon
today, their district governor,
Charles Merton of Rutherford. II
was the official visit of the district
governor and he gave the members
an inspiring talk on what Rotary
is.
His definition of Rotary was that
1t is the fundamental phase of life
that undertakes to reconcile the ever
present conflict between service to
ones self and service to others. He
declared that service is the underly-
ing principle of success. Real Ro-
tary work is done in the everyday
activity OF the members. 1t was
pointed out that every member of
Rotary is an ambassador of Rotary
to his particular classification. This
Rotary spirit is practical and 1t is
possible, the district governor de-
clared.
Besides the district governor there
were guests present from Wood
bridge, where a movement is on foot
to organize a Rotary Club.
