DETOUR GRADE CROSSING
IS CAREFULLY GUARDED
MATAWAN, July 12—Due to
many narrow escape* from death
or serious accident between motor
ists and • trains at the Main street
grade crossing through Cl iff wood
during the past week, the state
highway commission has caused the
New York and Long Branch Kail
•Yoad Company to place two flagmen
* at this crossing to protect motor
Hsts. The men were first on duty
over the week end.
Since the main highway through
Key port has been closed, and auto
mobiles have been forced to use the
detour through Cliffwood to Mat
awan, all cars cross over this gran*
crossing a few feet south of the
CLffwood passenger statue;. Many
serious accidents have just i.een
avoided and in one or two instances
trucks have been struck by trains
•Rt tl is crossing during the past
month. It is impossible to see the
-trains as they approach and this
I makes the crossing doublv danger
•ous. Some of the trains run over
this crossing at a rate of .sixty m b s,
on It*nr and that a serious accident
nas not occurred on the cross ns is
’ c onsidered miraculous.
FORDS
Tentative arrangements, which in
clude the signing of a contract with
the amusement company and the
appointment of a local committee,
were made for the show to be held
bv the Fords Fire Company during
the week beginning July IX. The Ira
Crouse tract on Kin* George's road
it Fords Corner has been selected as
' th« site for the show'. Included In
the coming attraction are eighteen
rxhibits and fifty concessions. This
Is not an ordinary carnival, the com
pany having the reputation of being
rthe best on tho market, and only
clean attractions will be brought
. here. Mr. Gardner was named as
' chairman of the committee in
Y charge. He will choose his own as
• eistants. . „ .
The Hosary lawn fete closed Pnt
.. urday night with the disposal of all
cf the articles offered for sale. The
committee reports the affair as a
r great success financially as well -is
i socially, there being a large amount
I of merchandise sold and a good so
cial time enjoyed by all attending.
Newly elected olficers were in
| stalled and assumed their duties at
I the regular meeting of the recently
I organized '>ur Redeemer’s Lutheran
church held Thursday night In the
chapel. The transfer of the proper
tv at Korda from the Perth Amb .
Lutheran church to the Fords church
was discussed and final disposition
of the matter will be made at the
regular meeting of Ihe Perth Amboy
church on Tuesday night.
Contractor Ryan, the successful
bidder for the work to be done on
Ford avenue, commenced last Thurs
day to grade the street preparatory
to the setting of Ihe curb aud get
ting the street ready for the concrete
paving, it is expected that the work,
lot paving Ford avenue will require
about sixty days.
