Judge Bodine clamped pad-lot ks on thirty-four saloons, cafes, roadhouses and hotels throughout State and placed the owners of several others, including a farmhouse near Plemington, on probation. He also ordered the locks taken fff a Newark church, which had inadvertently closed during a session by Judge Clark.

The mayor prefaced his remarks by saj-ing that older folks are trying to understand young people better today. "Education is being made more attractive through the use of athletics and new -nethods of teaching which take into consideration the hest approach to the young mind." He pleaded for a return to some I of our past standards of living, chief among them a more reverent observance of the Sabbath L'ay. The principal address of the evening was given by Judge Adrain Lyon of Perth Amboy.

He took for his subject, "The Game of Life." Using illustrations from the field of sport, Judge Lyon drove home to these young people the need or high ideals among high school hoys and girls. The fight of Theodore Roosevelt from the sickly and physically weak boy that he was to "the strong powerful fighter in the Presidents chair, was told granhically.
