Silzer Is still regarded as gubernatorial timber, however, and there are many who say he will yet grace the State House. After serving a short time as Prosecutor of the Pleas in Middlesex county Silzer was appointed to the Supreme Court by Governor Fielder. Silzer was a crack baseball player in the days at school and was identified with athletic events of all kinds. He attends many of the big league ball games. He is also a golfer and has Just been elected president of the Metuchen Golf and Country Club which was formed a few weeks ago.

The club is building a course between this city and Metuchen and ex- pects to have Plainfielders in Its membershp. Judge Silzer's friend, S. S. Car-valho, of this city, has allowed the club to use some of his land for the links. Judge Silzer Is very democratic in his ways, always has a good word for everybody and, rich or poor, big or email, he never forgets a friend, and he makes friends wherever he goes.

Judge Silzer is one of the big men of the State and it's a pleasure and an honor to know him. Behold the pleasing countenance of one of the youngest Circuit Court Justices of New Jersey, Hon. George S. Silzer, who presides in Union and Somerset county courts, also in Sussex and Bergen counties. "George," as Walter Hetfield, Bob Crane, Bill Run-yon and the many other disciples of Blackstone in the Queen City are privileged to call him when he is not on the bench, was born and bred in New Brunswick.

He "led them all" in school and he has been a leader ever since. Entering the practice of law in New Brunswick he was successful from the first day. He married one of Metuchen's most charming young women and took up his abode in the "brainy borough." Urged to enter politics he was elected State Senator on the Democratic ticket against strong Republican odds and served with such credit that he Lad a second term. Then his friends wanted him for Governor and he went into the State convention with more votes than any other candidate. He was the popular choice.

But Jim Smith was on top in those days, and Jim had decreed that the nomination should go to Woodrow -184 2 -180 2 -169 -182 173 172 183 213 201 191 147 173 184 tween the Paterson and Bayonne Causbrook teams at Bayonne was indefinitely yaij We are well stocked with useful and appropriate Christmas Gifts.
