VIII Enlarge
Theatre Soon

The enlargement of the Strand
Theatre, of Lambertville, will begin
soon after July l, according to A,
Rosen, who recently purchased it
from the Hildinger interests in
Trenton.
1t will be increased in length
about fifty feet, in the rear, and
a stage and other improvements
will be added. This will give this
city a playhouse which can not only
handle motion pictures, but regular
stage features, and also conven-
tions. 1t has been impossible to
hold any large gathering here be-
cause of the lack of a suitable
place in which to hold the affair.
Mr.. Rosen has this in mind in
preparing for a large expenditure
on the additions, believing that it
will tend to benefit the town as
well as his own interests.
The new addition will be COM
pleted and ready for use before the

V0n Sfr0heim Says
Real Meat Is Want
ed By Movie Fans
"Greed" Demonstrates II At Strand
next Monday and Tuesday

Greed" Demonstrates II AT Strand
next Monday and Tuesday
Movie fans will welcome the news
that one of the greatest pictures of
the year will be at the Lambertville
Strand next Monday and Tuesday.
1t is the kind of picture that APP
peals not only to the fans who
like lots of herman action, but
also to the discriminating people
who demand convincing and artistic
plots and scenes.
Greed" is the title of the picture,
and it was taken from Frank Nor
ris's book "McTeague." Won Stro-
helm, the famous director, is the
imam behind the gun" in produc-
ing this powerful drama. Won Stro-
helm has said that he is convinced
that the public as a whole does
not want trash" in its motion pic
lures, and so he has produced this
picture to satisfy even the most
discriminating.
"The fans are sick of chocolate
eclairs," he said, and they want
meat in their movies. They want
life as it is being lived by human
beings, and not the life Of puppets"
And this is what the public will
find in "Greed."
1t is interesting to note that
part of the scenes in this picture
were taken in Death Valley where
the temperature somtimes reaches
140 degrees. Won Stroheim insisted
on this bcause the plot would be
absolutely convincing when worked
out in the actual locations. 1t is
powerful picture, and you don't
want to miss it.
At the Lambertville Strand next
Monday and Tuesday,

Election contests are generally
clothed in uncertainty, but if su-
perfcial indications are reliable as
a barometer of public thought, then
Elizabeth P. Norris, candidate for
the Democratic State Committee
from Hunterdon County will be re-
turned a winner by an impressive
majority in the Primary Election to
be held Tuesday, June 16. There
are many reasons that can be as
cribed to the political strength which
the candidacy of Mrs. Norris has
Enthusiastically evidenced.
1t is an old political adage that
zone good term deserves another"
and Mrs. Norris who was first elect
ed to the State Committee as the
Representative of Hunterdon County
in 1922, has served with such out
standing distinction that the follow
ers of her political belief would be
unappreciative of efficient service,
did they not return her to the State
Committee for another term.

And He Didn't Eyen
Use His Osen Name

Few people in this section are
familiar with the name of Elwood
Smith Moser. But it is a name
to conjure with in Montgomery
County, Pa. 1t is the name of the
editor of the Collegeville, Pa. Inde-
pendent, which celebrated it's fiftieth
anniversary last Saturday, June 9th.
As brother editor, was honored
with an invitation to this celebra-
tion. II was held at the New Spring
Mountain House, dominating the
country around SchwenksvilIe, Pa.
And incidentally it was an illustrous
gathering of the newspaper frater-
nifty.
But the significant thing about
the celebration was that the very
attractive programs furnished the
guests DID NOT BEAR THE NAME
OF ELWOOD SMITH MOSER,
founder and uninterrupted editor Of
the Collegeville Independent for fif-
ty years!
That is characteristic. Daddy"
Moser, as he is fondly called by
younger editors of this section, is
ruggedly modest and charmingly
free from ostentation. And that his
name should not appear on the pro-
gram of the fiftieth anniversary of
his paper is typical of that rugged
charm of daddy" Moser.
Whether you know him or not
it should interest you to know that
here is story of romance and
sentiment in the success Of "self-
made" man. Daddy" Moser's first
venture, Ito Judge by the testimon-
ials delivered by cold timers",) was
a 2xd dry goods box on stills.
In that insignificant little frame
structure he printed his first pa
per. Later he moved his plant. and
1T WAS LOADED ON A WAGON
FOR THE REMOVAL! That tells
you how big it was.
But now Daddy" has a flourish
ing modern plant, and his news
paper is widely read. In addition to
that he is one of the principal
stockholders in the Norristown Reg
lister, is director in the College
vile Bank, of which he was one
of the founders, owns considerable
real estate, and last but not least,
raised a splendid family, giving
all his children college educations.
/ have heard of "self-made" men
lots of them. But | was always
suspicious of them; have seen
other "self-made" men, but they
riled me because they seemed to
worship their "makers" too much!
But Daddy" Moser! He is as free
from affectation as the sturdy trees
of the forest; he is as free from
conceit as the flowers whose beauty
and fragrance bless the world; his
charming simplicity, rugged and
kindly, is as refreshing as a cooling
breeze over the thirsty land.
He has written his own epitaph
in the wish he expressed in his
Acknowledgement last Saturday.
ale tried to play strenuous part
in the drama of life He tried to
help make the old earth happier

"The American Medical Associa-
ton, through its house of dele
gates, now unanimously declares that
alcohol is drug essential in the
treatment of diseases. The associa-
ton also declares that it is unani-
mously opposed to physicians pre-
scribing alcohol in any way EXCEPT
as drug, and that those physi-
clans who prescribe 1t for those
who are not sick should be dis
ciplined."
When asked what was meant gen.
orally by alcohol, DIR. Chalmers said
the term included whisky, brandy,
gin or other preparations hitherto
used as beverages.

KLANSMEN APP
PEAR IN LAMBERTVILLE

1t has been reported that Mayor
Moonan warned that the Khan would
never be permitted to parade in
Lambertville. But quite a process
sion of them in autos moved thru
the streets late last night.
1t was rumored that the Kleagles
of both Warren and Hunterdon
Counties were among the delegation,
and they were dressed in full cos
tune. However, their hoods were
up, and none of them seemed to care
who saw them or identified them.
And strange as it may seem, Ito
some,) there was no riot or dis
turbance connected with their pass
ing. This is apparently what some
people would expect, Judging by the
criticisms made by Khan enemies.

Trying To Hog
The Ticket
Pennington Politicians Up To
Their Old Tricks

Considerable ire has been aroused
on the part of Republican voters
outside Pennington on the obvious
efforts of Pennington politicians to
hog the ticket. Sample ballot mailed
to the voters this week show cheap
trick on the part of these would
be political bosses to mislead the
Republican voters.
The names of Captain Allen and
Mrs. Bells, who are running for
the Republican State Committee,
have Republican" printed after
them. And this repetition of ere
publican" on Republican ballot
can have only one meaning-it is
calculated to make the voters think
that the opponents of Allen and
Bells are NOT Republicans
And yet f. P. Baylor, who is OPP
posing Allen, has been an efficient
member of the State Committee for
years, and is one of the staunchest
Republicans in the State. Mrs. Car
RE d. Cochran, who is the running
mate of Mr.. Baylor, has always
been a Republican and has been
prominently affiliated with Repub-
lican Womens Clubs in New Jer-
sey ever since the women have had
the franchise.
AN INFRACTION OF THE LAW?
Many voters are seriously con
WINGED that the printing on the
party ballots of the strictly party
name is an infraction of the cleo
ton laws of New Jersey. In the
Election Laws, Par. $3.50, Sec. %, it
is provided that candidates may use
designations after their names, of
not more than six words, "as nam
ed by him in said petition, for
the purpose of INDICATING ANY
OFFICIAL ACT OR POLICY TO
WHICH HE is PLEDGED OR
COMMITTED, OR TO DISTIN-
GUISH HIM AS BELONGING TO
A PARTICULAR FACTION OR
WING OF HIS POLITICAL PAR
TY."
But it doesn't provide for the
reprinting after his name of the
political party name which appears
on the head of the ballot. And it
also specifies that such a designa-
ton must have been named by him
in his petition.
1t is seriously questioned if this
provision has been followed in AL
lens and Bells petitions. For on
the official certificates from the
County Clerks office DID NOT
HAVE THE "REPUBLICAN"
PRINTED AFTER THEIR NAMES,
BUT 1T WAS WRITTEN IN ON
THE TYPEWRITER-th showing
that it was an afterthought.
People who KNOW both Allen
and Baylor will have no difficulty
in deciding which man to vote for.
Baylor has proven himself a
! thousand times over-not only as an
honest Republican, but in every
phase of business and public life.
Mrs. Cochran is not so well known
except in Lambertville, her home
town, but she has host of friends
who know her to be above re-
proach as leading Republican
of her sex, and an honest advocate
of clean government. This will go
far in winning votes for her.
Hunterdon County Republicans are
sick and tired of the bossism be-
ing imposed on them by these Flem-
ington politicians. Here is a good
chance for them to express their
disapproval in no uncertain terms.

RAN FOR REPUBLICAN STATE
