THE TOWN 'BEAUTIFUL - •This is the time of year when 'peoplearo traveling.

In no other month of tlie year do so many people ride oiltrolleys, trains and automobiles. The man goirig^on' hisvacation and the man coming home, in a" constant stream,'is passing through the New Jersey towns. Many it thesepeople keep their oyes open as they pass-through towns,anxious-to see what refinement and civic Spirit they -canfind, The town that draws tlie>intorost of- the passers-byand that remains in their memory, is the town that h'a.sbeautiful streets, well kept, and attractive residences andgrounds.

i, etc., it would take a lot of argument to convince themthat-the place was a town beautiful. Owners of such un-sightly places often say that no one knows who' lives there,so it makes no - difference.'' All the same the passer-byknows the name of the town. . _ _

Many towns, realizing the importance of the effecproduced on travelers, have gone to the trouble' and ex-pense of making parks around the stations and along 4themain streets. . ._

Oranford's streets are so very attractive that nothingmore could be askefi than that the roadway be kept.in per-fect order. 'The owners of fine residences-keep their'placesin excellent condition at all times, the trouble is that many

Governor. • , - • - •Senator Austen Colgate is the strongestman the Republican Party can nominate.

Why ?He would poll the full party vote because he

haKno factional opposition and is popular with every ""element in the party. His clean record in" office.-his broad.views on public questions and his justregard for the interests of the citizens of every classhave made him strong with the independent voters.

The Democrats will choose their candidate fromHudson County, in the hope that his big vote in thisgreat stronghold of the Democracy will insure vic-tory in spite of adverse pluralities in the Republicancounties. This plan proved successful in 1913 andthey- are pinning their faith to it in 1916. .

As the head of'the great manufacturing plant-~ of Colgate & Company.employing over 2,500 hands,Senator Colgate has his business headquarters inHudson County. Hisacknswledgedpopularity there•^-'i^ enable hint to hold down, the Democratic*.
