GIRL PRESIDENT OF
JAMESBUBG GLASS
Miss Elizabeth Blakeslee is
Named—Only One Boy
in the Class.
Jamesburg, Oct. 5:—The girl mem
bers of the Jamesburg high school
have shattered all customs at that
Institution In the selection of a girl
president of the Senior class of the
school. Miss Elizabeth Blakeslee, re
siding on a farm, pretty and a "dark
horse" for the office, was chosen at
the election held yesterday in the
auditorium of the school.
This selection of a girl leader of
the Seniors has caused much dissatis
faction among the student body and
a break among the student body
seems eminent. The ballot taken was
a secret one and the announcement
that Miss Blakeslee was the new lead
er was received with groans. Among
her duties will be that of cheer lead
er, attend to all hazing and other
stunts that are usually left to the
stronger sex.
Other officers chosen: Vice presi
dent, Oliver L. E. Soden; treasurer.
Miss Evelyn Deveney; secretary, Miss
Ruth demons. «
Oliver Sqden is the only male mem
ber of the Seniors this year and this
fact is also unique in the class history
and the first time such a condition
has existed.
Some of the girl students when
•een said that they had just mado up
their minds to show the boys that
they were just as qualified to run the
class as their sterner companions.
Preceding the election of officers
the meeting was called to order by
the chairman, Eric Wldeberg. The
report of the treasurer showed that
·, ' bills had been paid.
It was voted to make the dues of
the class twenty-flve cents per month
to be applied to the expenses of the
graduation exercises. A committee
was appointed to get samples for the
purchase of class pins and It was also
voted to meet the first Tuesday of
each month in the auditorium.
The meeting was one of the largest
attended of any of the class as it had
leaked out in some manner that the
girls were going to "pull" something
off that would eurprlse the boys.
That they succeeded has been demon
strated much too strongly for the
male members.
Junior Class Elects.
The junior class of the Jamesburg
high school has elected the following
officers: President, Thomaa Timber
man; vice president, Francis Fish;
secretary, Beatrice Appleby; Treas
t^"er, Katharine Carr. It was decided
to meet once a month on the first Fri
day.
All the members of the board of
officers of the junior class are also
fUFP with the exception of the pres
ident.
Allan Phillips presided at the meet
ing as chairman.

Çrepare this famous home-made remedy.
ou not only save $2 as compared with
the ready-made kind, but you will also
have a more effective and dependable |
remedy in every way. It overcomes the
usual coughs, throat or chest colds in

quickly.

syrup that money can buy—at a cost of
only 64 cents or less. It never spoils.
The prompt and positive results given
by this pleasant tasting cough syrup
have caused it to be used in more homes
than any other remedy. It quickly
loosens a dry, hoarse or tight cough,
heals the inflamed membranes that line
the throat and bronchial tubes, and re·

"In computing an actor's Income one ,
must remember also that the only esc- :

pays for his sleeping car accommoda

require the player to purchase at his

Injunction Proceedings of John
Terhtine Will be Heard by
Vice Chancellor Foster.
Special to <Λβ EVENING V.VWB.
Matawan, Oct. 5—The matter of the
injunction proceedings, which have
been instituted against the trustees of
the Matawan First Methodist church
by John Terhune, and which have
been pending for some time will be
heard before Vice Chancellor Foster
at Newark Monday morning, ai 10
o'clock.
It will be remembered that Mr. Ter
hune, who lives next door to the
church, hopes to have the recently
Installed town clock, which is in the
belfry of the church, stopped from
striking the hours of the day from 2
o'clock in the morning until 10 o'clock
at night. It is alleged by the defend
ants that it was by agreement with
the plaintiff that the clock was si
lenced after 10 o'clock at night, neces
sitating the insertion of a silencer in
the mechanism of the clock at extra
expense to the donors.
Mr. Terhune brought this action
against the church some time ago and
the hearing has been postponed from
time to time and all this while inter
est has been growing in the case ana
it is known that the majority of the
town people wish clock to continue
striking, and no douut but what a
large delegation of the townspeople
will attend the hearing.
The clock, which is of the Howard
make, and is one of the finest in the
country, was given to the borough of
Matawan by the late Edward I. Brown
of Matawan and Ocean Grove. Mr.
Brown in his will left the clock to the
town of Matawan with the instruc
tion that it be placed in the belfry of
the First Methodist church and the
hours be struck on the beautifully
toned church bell, which he had pre
viously given to the church in mem
ory of his first wife who was a mem
ber of the organization.

BUDGET OF NEWS
FROM ROOSEVELT
Political Situation Quiet at
I
Present, but Big Events
are Being Arranged.
Special to the SVENING XEXV8.
Roosevelt, Oct. 6—The political is
sue in Roosevelt at present seems to
be very quiet in spite of the fact that
there are such Important elections to
be made this fall. The reason for this
is probably clue to the fact that both
parties are quietly gathering their
forces for a very strenuous campaign.
Party leaders of both sides when ques
tioned simply state that they will soon
have things under way by means of
big rallies to which the voters will be
called to hear prominent speakers and
candidates for high offices, as well as
the local candidates. In the past the
presidential election has greatly Influ
enced the election. When Taft ran
the Republicans made their strongest
fight for the mayorship and were only
six votes shy. During the last elec
tion naturally this town went the way
the county did, due to the fact that
the Republican party had a straight
party candidate and a Progressive
candidate bringing about a complete
Democratic victory. This year the Re
publicans have organized together in
hopes of electing their candidate. In
the primaries Neville was the choice
for mayor. All of the voters of his
party are pledged to stand for him,
but from appearances there Is just a
little dissatisfaction on the part of a
few yet.
On the other hand the Democrats
who believe they lost last year on ac
count of a little Internal trouble, but
feel that all is settled this year and
with Herman at the head of the tick
et again will sweep the local boards
by a large majority. Sum ups by pe
riods before election will trace how
much effort and progress each party
Is making, and the outlook as receiv
ed from the party leaders will give the
readers an Idea of the situation.
Lawyer Robert Binder, of Newport
News, Va., arrived at the home of his
